Two dazzling streams of light burst forth from Su Yi's hands in an instant.
They circled around, actually lifting Lin Xinran into the air!
Floating as if she were a celestial being!
At this moment, Ye Yueluo, who had just come back from grocery shopping and pushed the door to enter, witnessed this scene, her heart shaking with shock in an instant.
This... This was simply a miracle!
Regardless of someone entering, Su Yi was at the end of his strength.
He desperately held down his chi, slowly lowering Lin Xinran to the ground.
All his chi flowed into Lin Xinran's body, the light vanishing with a flicker.
He stopped the spinning silver needles and deftly pulled them out one by one.
Thereafter, Su Yi let out a long sigh of relief.
Paying no mind to resting, Su Yi hurriedly crawled to the bedside, "Xinran, Xinran!"
A moment of prolonged silence...
"Xinran! Are you feeling any better?"
"Look at me! Xinran! I'm Su Yi!"
Still, there was no response.
Su Yi felt as if he had plunged into an ice pit.
He collapsed to the floor, at a loss for what to do.
"Why did it turn out like this..."
He had already done his utmost, yet he still couldn't save her!
Why!!
The one said to bring back the dying and mend bones and flesh... could it be that he couldn't even cure his own wife?!
Su Yi's head drooped, his strength drained from his body.
Suddenly, a trembling, fair little hand reached out, gently falling onto Su Yi's shoulder!
Su Yi was like a man waking from a dream! He quickly got up and grasped Lin Xinran's small hand.
Lin Xinran lay on the bed, weakly smiling, "Ah Yi, I'm here."
Just four words were worth more than thousands of others!
Su Yi was both shocked and overjoyed, emotionally embracing Lin Xinran, his words incoherent.
"Xinran... finally! You finally got better...!"
Not caring about the moisture in the corners of his eyes, Su Yi quickly brought over their daughter, mumbling incessantly.
"Daughter look, Daddy didn't lie to you, Daddy cured Mommy!"
"Xinran, look this is our precious daughter,"
"She is already four years old! So well-behaved!"
The daughter was only crying, clinging to her mother.
"Daddy is the best! Daddy has cured the best mommy! Wuuuuu..."
Lin Xinran weakly hugged her daughter and husband, her eyes brimming with tears and happiness.
Ye Yueluo by the door was also moved.
Not wanting to disrupt the family reunion, Ye Yueluo quietly stepped out.
She leaned against the wall, her heart still shocked.
Thinking of the way Su Yi performed acupuncture.
A glimmer of hope ignited inside Ye Yueluo's heart.
...
After a long while, Su Yi came out of the room.
Seeing Ye Yueluo, he apologized with a smile, "There was quite a lot going on, sorry for the inconvenience."
Ye Yueluo was polite in reply, then added, "Dinner is ready, come join us."
At that moment, Lin Xinran was still very weak, with Su Yi attending to her at her side.
After dinner, Ye Yueluo hesitated, but ultimately mustered up the courage to say, "Su Yi, I need to ask you for a favor."
It turned out, Ye Yueluo didn't live alone.
She had lived with her father since she was a child.
Until the beginning of the year when her father suddenly developed a leg ailment.
With limited savings, she had no choice but to send him to the hospital's physiotherapy department at a friend's recommendation.
She thought it would be a simple period of recuperation, but the condition unexpectedly worsened.
The leg ailment became more severe, and her father's health declined day by day.
Fortunately, a young male doctor had been consistently assisting with the treatment.
However, the male doctor took a fancy to Ye Yueluo's beauty, trying to please her and even harassing her from time to time.
Compelled by her father's illness, Ye Yueluo had to endure it all!
Just now, upon seeing Su Yi's display of medical skill, Ye Yueluo was both shocked and overjoyed, and thus she thought to ask for his assistance.
Before Su Yi could even think, their daughter had already agreed on his behalf.
The daughter clung to Su Yi's shoulders, swaying them back and forth, her big eyes fluttering as if they could speak.
"Daddy, please help Yueluo sister~"
"Please help her~"
Helplessly, Su Yi glanced at Lin Xinran, who was smiling and nodding.
What choice did he have when both wife and daughter agreed?
"Alright, we'll all go see her tomorrow."
"Mom won't come, though. She hasn't fully recovered yet, so she'll rest at home tomorrow," Su Yi said indulgently to Lin Xinran.
"Yay!" His little daughter jumped with joy, and Ye Yueluo also revealed a relaxed smile.
...
The next day, Su Yi carried his daughter and set off with Ye Yueluo.
As soon as they entered the hospital, a male doctor immediately hurried over.
"Yueluo, you're here. Why didn't you call me in advance? Come this way, come this way."
"Don't call me Yueluo," Ye Yueluo said with some impatience.
"Quite the attentive reception," Su Yi murmured with a silent chuckle.
The male doctor's eyes narrowed upon seeing a man next to Ye Yueluo.
His face darkened as he glanced at Su Yi.
But he didn't say a word and simply ignored Su Yi, leading Ye Yueluo on.
Su Yi followed and arrived at a hospital room.
An old man lay in a bed by the window, his body bent and looking extremely weak.
"Dad!"
Ye Yueluo approached the bed and called out, and the old man opened his eyes.
"I'm sorry, uncle's condition has worsened, but rest assured, for your sake, I will do my utmost to treat him!" the male doctor took the opportunity to declare his dedication.
"Mhm," Ye Yueluo responded without much enthusiasm to his earnestness.
She was clearly more concerned about her father's health: "What has happened to my dad lately?"
The male doctor quickly spoke in a flattering tone: "Your uncle's illness is very odd. I've been doing my best, but it's still getting worse."
"He'll need to stay in the hospital for a while longer!" he stated with certainty.
"How about this, Yueluo, are you free tonight? Why don't we go out for a meal, and then I can explain in detail?"
"No need, just explain here if it's important," Ye Yueluo said, clearly in a bad mood.
Su Yi felt amused by the male doctor's fawning but chose not to expose him.
Without making a sound, Su Yi carefully examined the old man's legs.
The old man's leg condition wasn't supposed to be a major issue, so how had it dragged on for so long?
And yet he hadn't received proper care; the old man even had bedsores!
Such a situation going unaddressed was too strange!
Or was there some hidden truth?
Suddenly, Su Yi asked, "Doctor, what illness does the old gentleman have?"
The male doctor glanced at him dismissively.
Damn, he hadn't even had the chance to talk more with Ye Yueluo.
Who was this idiot interrupting him?
Upon taking another look at Su Yi, the male doctor became thoroughly annoyed.
He said with a bad tone, "Some leg disease, you wouldn't know anyway. Why do you ask?!"
"I wouldn't know?" Su Yi was genuinely amused.
Had it been before, he indeed wouldn't have known.
But now, heh, things had changed!!
"Well then, how about we make a bet?"
"What kind of bet?"
The male doctor looked at Su Yi back and forth, his eyes full of contemptuous mockery.
Thinking that Su Yi was Ye Yueluo's suitor and seeing him today paired with her, his disdain only grew stronger.
This loser, burdened with a child, dared to gamble with him?
Totally overestimating himself!!
Su Yi noticed the scorn in the doctor's eyes and chuckled inwardly.
Another one who looked down on people!
Today, he was going to give this dog a lesson!
"Let's bet that not only do I know what disease this is, but also..."
Su Yi's eyes sparkled with determination: "Moreover, I can cure it within fifteen minutes!"
