Next, Xiao Yifeng's hands danced gracefully, like phantoms, as he inserted silver needles into several acupoints around Ye Tianxiong's body.
The needling was over in an instant, without any hesitation, completely lacking the extreme caution shown by other doctors during acupuncture, as if he was doing it with natural ease.
Following that, Xiao Yifeng started to twirl the silver needles causing them to tremble rhythmically, and a stream of energy surged from his body, passing into Ye Tianxiong through the needles.
After a dozen seconds or so, Xiao Yifeng removed Ye Tianxiong's oxygen mask in one swift motion and pulled up his body, slapping it directly on his back.
"You bastard, what are you doing?" Ye Songming's expression turned cold as he barked, and both Ye Yaxin's and Mu Feng's eyes tightened.
Puh!
When Xiao Yifeng's palm struck down, Ye Tianxiong spat a mouthful of congested blood onto the ground, the dark gray color indicating it was clearly abnormal.
After expelling this blood, Ye Tianxiong's pallid complexion gradually returned to normal, and his frail breathing had also become steadier.
Xiao Yifeng then waved his hand, pulling out the silver needles from Ye Tianxiong's body. As Xiao Yifeng removed the needle from his brow, Ye Tianxiong's eyes slowly opened.
"Grandfather, you're awake!"
Seeing Ye Tianxiong come to, Ye Yaxin burst into tears of joy, her face filled with excitement and elation.
As for Ye Songming, his expression shifted dramatically, his pupils contracting sharply.
Xiao Yifeng couldn't help glancing at Ye Songming, the corners of his mouth revealing an indiscernible smile.
"Ya Xin!"
Ye Songming, looking at Ye Yaxin, let out a smile and said.
"Grandfather, you've finally woken up, that's truly wonderful." At this moment, Ye Yaxin's face, previously devoid of any warmth, was now drenched in tears of joy and excitement, clearly filled with genuine affection for Ye Tianxiong.
"Grandfather, the poison in your body has been cleared by me, but you are still somewhat weak and will need a few days of good rest to fully recover."
Xiao Yifeng spoke up at the right time.
"Who are you?" Ye Tianxiong asked, looking at Xiao Yifeng with some confusion.
"Oh, he is..."
"Grandfather, I'm your grandson-in-law ah!"
Before Ye Yaxin could speak, Xiao Yifeng said with a beaming smile, causing Ye Yaxin's expression to change as she glared at him.
"Grandson-in-law?" Ye Tianxiong was startled and looked at Ye Yaxin. "Ya Xin, you've found a boyfriend?"
"Oh dear, it's not like that, Grandfather. This guy suddenly appeared at the company today, claiming to be my fiancé, and he produced a marriage contract signed by you. I was just about to ask you about it, Grandfather." Ye Yaxin hastily explained.
All of a sudden, Ye Tianxiong's face changed, his eyes narrowed sharply, and he quickly asked, "Where is that marriage contract?"
"Grandfather, here it is." Xiao Yifeng cheerfully presented the marriage contract.
"So it is true, it appears you are indeed Master Xiaoyunzi's disciple!" Ye Tianxiong held the marriage contract, his voice tinged with manic joy, his eyes brimming with excitement as he looked at Xiao Yifeng.
"Master Xiaoyunzi is indeed my master, and this marriage contract was also given to me by him, telling me to come to Tianhai to find my wife," Xiao Yifeng nodded in response.
At this moment, Ye Yaxin was already sensing something amiss, her expression growing tense as she looked at her grandfather, "Grandpa, this can't be real, right?"
"Of course, it's real. This marriage contract was personally drawn up by Master Xiaoyunzi and me eight years ago. Eight years ago, Master Xiaoyunzi said that eight years later, his disciple would come to marry my granddaughter, which is you, Yaxin. I never expected that I would actually live to see this day."
As Ye Tianxiong spoke with a sigh, when he mentioned the name of Master Xiaoyunzi, this towering figure who had dominated the Tianhai Business Community for decades and founded one of Tianhai's Four Great Families, the Ye Family, actually showed a hint of reverence and worship.
"See, I didn't lie, did I? You are my bride," Xiao Yifeng said, grinning at Ye Yaxin.
"Your name is Xiao Yifeng, right?" Ye Tianxiong said, looking at Xiao Yifeng with a kindly expression on his face.
"Mm," Xiao Yifeng nodded.
With a pleased smile, Ye Tianxiong said, "From now on, I'll be entrusting Yaxin to you. I hope you'll treat her well."
"Don't worry, Grandpa, I won't let my bride down," he promised.
"Then you two should go and get your marriage certificate tomorrow," Ye Tianxiong declared, leaving everyone in the room stunned.
Isn't that too fast? Are they really going to get their marriage certificate just like that?
"Grandpa! How can you do this?" Finally, Ye Yaxin couldn't restrain herself and spoke up.
"What? Yaxin, do you not wish to?" Ye Tianxiong's gaze shifted to Chu Yaxin.
"Of course, I don't wish to, Grandpa. No matter what this marriage contract is all about, it's impossible between him and me. I won't go and get a marriage certificate with him," Ye Yaxin said resolutely.
Ye Tianxiong's face darkened, "Yaxin, I've already made my decision. Ye Tianxiong has never broken a promise to anyone. Since this marriage has been arranged, you must agree. You'll go tomorrow and get the marriage certificate with Yifeng."
"Grandpa!" With a face full of reluctance and dismay, Ye Yaxin called out as she glanced at Xiao Yifeng, "Grandpa, just look at this guy. His clothes make him look like a migrant worker or a beggar. How can I possibly marry him?"
"Hey, hey, bride, could you not insult me like that? Do I look like a beggar with my handsome and dashing appearance? Do beggars have a face as charming as mine, with this elegant demeanor?" Xiao Yifeng retorted.
"Shameless!" Ye Yaxin spat out those three words.
"Alright, Yaxin, stop making a scene. The matter is decided. If you still regard me as your grandfather, then you'll go with Yifeng tomorrow and get registered."
"Grandpa, I disagree, I won't get the certificate with this guy," Ye Yaxin declared firmly.
"You... cough cough!"
Ye Tianxiong choked with anger, starting to cough violently.
"Master, calm down. Your health hasn't recovered yet," Mu Feng said hastily as he supported Ye Tianxiong.
As for Mr. and Mrs. Ye Songming, they stood aside, their eyes darting around without saying a word.
"How about this? We don't get the certificate right away. After all, we have no emotional foundation. Why not cultivate our feelings first? I believe with my charm, you'll come to like me, my bride," Xiao Yifeng said with extreme confidence.
Hmph!
Ye Yaxin just gave a frosty hum.
"Master, I think this is not a bad idea. Let the young ones spend some time together to foster feelings, and then getting the certificate won't be too late," Mu Feng suggested.
After pondering for a moment, Ye Tianxiong nodded, "Alright then, that's settled. I have a villa in Haitang Garden. You two move in there together, and then slowly build up your feelings."
"What? Live with him?" Ye Yaxin's expression changed once again.
