"You're the one who's strange. Can't you tell that he is..." the Seventh Princess said, but before she could finish, she was interrupted by Ye Lanyu, who was grinning mischievously.
"Quiet down! Little brother, I'm asking you, have you been with Alvin the whole time? Have you done anything intimate?"
"No, he always keeps his distance from people, probably because he's Half-Elf," Ye Lang said, shaking his head.
"What a pity!" Ye Lanyu said with some disappointment.
"What a pity, Ye Lanyu! I'm warning you, don't lead Ye Lang astray!!" The Seventh Princess pulled Ye Lang to her side and scolded Ye Lanyu with great dissatisfaction.
"He's corrupting me. He's better than me, you know. He was already going to brothels when he was five years old..." Ye Lanyu pulled Ye Lang back and said to the Seventh Princess.
"..." Alvin and the others fell silent. Five years old...
"What are you talking about?" Ye Lang was a little confused. How did things suddenly get to this?
"You little scatterbrain, I've been by your side for so long and you still haven't realized that I am... sigh..." Ye Lanyu shook her head, looking at Ye Lang with a helpless expression, but a smile appeared on her lips.
She just liked how clueless Ye Lang was. So what if he couldn't figure it out?
"Ye Lang, you're so silly and cute..." The Seventh Princess hugged Ye Lang then gently kissed his cheek.
"??"
Ye Lang was completely bewildered. What was wrong with them? Why were they suddenly acting so strangely?
"Mother, what are they saying? Why can't I understand them?" Chen Pi, like Ye Lang, was also very confused.
"Silly son, this elf girl is a woman, not a man," the old man said.
Chen Pi was stunned for a moment, then muttered, "Huh? A woman?"
"Who's the woman? Alvin?" Ye Lang also heard the old man's words, looked at Alvin for a while, and carefully examined him from head to toe.
Ye Lang shook his head and said, "It's definitely not you..."
"..."
Everyone fell silent. This Muddleheaded Divine Physician really was still a bit of a scatterbrain...
"Why is it definitely not me..." Alvin looked at Ye Lang with a hint of grievance.
"Yes, little brother, why do you think she isn't?" Ye Lanyu was also curious about this, which was also what the Seventh Princess was curious about.
"Look at him, skinny, dark-skinned, and without any chest, he doesn't look like a woman at all," Ye Lang said, pointing to Alvin's chest, where there was absolutely no protrusion.
"..." Alvin hugged his chest, his face flushed, even his dark skin showed a blush.
"Idiot, what's wrong with that? Can't girls not have breasts?" Ye Lanyu tapped Ye Lang and scolded him harshly.
Ye Lang thought for a moment, then said with a sudden realization, "So that's how it is. Some girls are indeed flat-chested. Hmm, it's nothing! Speaking of which, if Alvin had a little more breasts, he would indeed be just like a woman."
Then, Ye Lang looked at Alvin and continued, "His eyes are so clear and alluring, and his skin is so smooth. Although it's a bit dark, it's very healthy! It's a pity... Oh well, it's not a big deal anyway, it's fine if you don't have breasts!"
"I have breasts, not flat-chested ones!!" Alvin said, puffing out his chest, sounding a little angry.
"... I can't see it..." Ye Lang looked for a while, but finally gave up.
"..." Alvin was speechless.
"Alvin, since you're a woman, why didn't you say so earlier?" Ye Lang asked.
"Does that need to be said..." Alvin asked.
"Don't you need it?" Ye Lang asked.
"No need!!" This wasn't Alvin's answer, but the answer from everyone in the room; almost everyone could tell at a glance that Alvin was a woman.
Not to mention Ye Lanyu and the Seventh Princess, anyone who has seen Alvin can quickly tell that Alvin is a female Half-Elf, not the male that Ye Lang thought.
"You all know?" Ye Lang asked curiously.
"Yes, we all know!" came the unanimous reply once again.
Ye Lang immediately asked, "Since you all knew, why didn't you tell me?"
Everyone was silent for a moment after hearing Ye Lang's question, and then gave an answer—
"We assumed you knew!!"
Yes, everyone thinks Ye Lang knows Alvin is a woman because it's so obvious. They couldn't see it clearly when they were fleeing, but after he changed his clothes, everyone understood.
Because everyone saw how close Alvin and Ye Lang were, they assumed that Ye Lang must have known about it long ago, so no one told him.
Now everyone can be sure of one thing: Ye Lang is incredibly oblivious. He hadn't noticed something so obvious, and Alvin had been right beside him the whole time.
To put it nicely, it's being absent-minded; to put it bluntly, it's being slow-witted!
After understanding the situation, Ye Lang still couldn't understand. He looked at Alvin with suspicion and asked, "What exactly makes you look like a woman? Why can't I see it?"
While other girls could be identified by their voices, Alvin's voice was always hoarse, making it impossible for Ye Lang to tell. In the end, he couldn't understand how she resembled a woman, even though it was obvious to everyone else.
"That's because you're stupid Young Master!" Alvin replied irritably. "And one more thing, my name is Alvin, not Alvin!"
"Oh..." Ye Lang seemed to understand, but he still asked, "Is there a difference?"
"..."
"Alright, now that you're a woman, it's even more convenient. From now on, all the women's matters will be handled by you!" Ye Lang didn't mind. Although Alvin had become Alvin, and the man had become a woman, it seemed to make no difference to him.
"These are things I've always done..." Alvin said softly.
"Next..." Ye Lang continued to see the patient.
Alvin continued to be Ye Lang's assistant, without any difference. Originally, apart from Ye Lang not knowing that she was a woman, everyone else treated her as a woman.
She originally thought that Ye Lang knew she was a girl, and even if he was confused, he should know that much. However, she did not expect that Ye Lang would not know.
This time, if it weren't for the appearance of the honest and simple-minded Chen Pi, Ye Lang probably would never have known that Alvin was a girl.
Of course, regarding Alvin's chest, it wasn't that she specifically bound her chest to disguise herself as a man; it's natural. In other words, she naturally doesn't have breasts, or rather, she has small breasts, but you can't say she has none.
And so the matter of Alvin being a woman came to an end, though it felt rather strange. Ye Lang's reaction was remarkably calm, as if he really didn't care whether he was male or female...
