Chapter 38: Chapter Thirty-Eight: Body Examination

Jiang Ning paused for a moment, asking, “Huang Ying, can I skip the physical examination?”

“You can’t, it’s a palace regulation,” Huang Ying chuckled, “Don’t be scared, Miss. I’ll accompany you in and ask the Nanny in charge of the examination to be gentle.”

Jiang Ning trembled slightly, “Is it brutal?”

“Not exactly, but it can be somewhat embarrassing.”

Jiang Ning glanced around. This deep in the palace gardens, with many winding paths, there’s no doubt she’d quickly be caught if she attempted to escape.

It seemed she was stuck between a rock and a hard place.

She touched her left leg.

Huang Ying noticed and said softly, “Don’t worry, Miss. I’ll act as your leg and assist you.”

Jiang Ning just nodded, without saying anything else.

Huang Ying was a good girl who appreciated kindness; Jiang Ning couldn’t take any rash actions that might get her in trouble.

It was just an examination after all. If they want to check, then let them check.

Even if the Imperial Physician stated that she wasn’t pregnant, the Nannies surely wouldn’t discover otherwise.

Worst case scenario, they’d discover her body was not that of a virgin’s.

At most, she’d be despised, lose her eligibility for the selection, and be sent home from the preliminary examination.

She didn’t have anything to lose.

With these thoughts in mind, Jiang Ning was much calmer.

By the time she returned to Cloudview Pavilion, dozens of maidens had already lined up to enter the examination room.

When Jiang Ning arrived, Jiang Yuan had just come out after her examination, dressed in a turquoise-colored palace gown, as were several other maidens.

Huang Ying whispered, “The fact they have changed into this attire means they passed the physical examination. They are now able to advance to the next round.”

Jiang Ning nodded. No wonder Jiang Yuan was beaming from ear to ear.

She looked around, not spotting Jiang Yan, so she asked Huang Ying about her.

“She probably didn’t make it and got sent back home,” replied Huang Ying.

Jiang Ning was taken aback.

Jiang Yan, who was obedient and clever, despite not being as beautiful as Jiang Yuan, was quite pretty. She couldn’t believe she was already eliminated.

Huang Ying chuckled, “They are looking for girls with good bearing and growth potential.”

A voice was heard, “Next, from the Jiang Family, Seventh Miss, Jiang Ning!”

Jiang Ning didn’t move. Seeing this, Huang Ying abandoned all formalities and pushed Jiang Ning’s wheelchair towards the examination room.

The rest of the maidens had amused expressions on their faces.

The examination was a physical evaluation after all. A girl with a limp actually had the courage to get in there. She certainly was not afraid of embarrassing herself.

Jiang Ning took in the examination room.

It was dimly lit with a small room divided by wooden boards. It reminded her of…the restroom design in a modern shopping mall.

Besides a door, there were no windows at all.

A dark-faced Nanny stood near, giving them a glance from time to time.

It was quite frightening.

Huang Ying helped Jiang Ning off the wheelchair to undress.

Jiang Ning pushed her hand away, addressing the Nanny, “My leg is a disadvantage you can obviously see. I’m just here to complete the numbers. You might as well not examine me. Just give me my ticket, and I’ll be on my way home.”

Even a bodily-healthy girl like Jiang Yan had been eliminated. She might as well save herself the trouble.

The dark-faced Nanny didn’t say anything in response, but stepped in front of her, gave her a once-over, and coldly commanded, “Go behind the screen over there and change your clothes.”contemporary romance

Change clothes?

Jiang Ning looked down at herself.

Huang Ying was overjoyed and whispered, “Congratulations, Miss! Having changed into the palace dress signifies that you have passed this round. Now you may go to the Stewardess for selection.”

Jiang Ning was astonished, “Nanny, you haven’t examined me yet.”

The dark-faced Nanny was stern, “Miss, you better hurry and change your clothes. I’m very busy. I still have to examine the next maiden.”

Jiang Ning was bewildered.

So, is this how they conduct the examination?

However, Huang Ying was elated and quickly helped her towards the changing area.

After switching into a lightweight cyan palace gown, she crossed paths with the next maiden in line.

On spotting Jiang Ning’s attire, the maiden looked so shocked it appeared her eyes might pop out of her head..
