Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

On the fifth day that Wen Xinya was hospitalized, Old Mr. Du and Du Ruo visited her.

Du Ruo teared up at the instant that she saw Wen Xinya. She grabbed her hand and tried to take her pulse. “Head injury, damage to your liver’s Qi, deficiency, excessive loss of blood, damage to the Qi of your blood... oh dear! Xinya, you’ve just gotten better and nursed your body back to health in the recent years. Why did it go back to square one again? It’s going to take a long time to nourish your body back to health... those abductors are too evil.”

Wen Xinya hurriedly comforted her, “Ruoruo, I’m alright. There’s an ancient saying that goes ‘There’s bound to be a great blessing after surviving a major disaster!’ With you, the Traditional Chinese Medicine prodigy around to help me, I’ll just nurse my body back to health, bit by bit.”

Du Ruo finally stopped crying and said, “I’ll go write some recipes for you and prescribe some supplements that will help you nourish your brain and your health. However, your body is still weak. You shouldn’t be nursing your health at the moment. You must take note of your nutritional intake, though. You can only nourish your body after your wounds heal.”

Wen Xinya nodded in agreement. The doctor had also given her similar instructions.

Du Ruo hurriedly looked at Old Mr. Du and said, “Grandpa, quick, take a look at Xinya’s wounds.”

Du Shinan had gone to the hospital specially to look at Wen Xinya’s wounds. He felt that there was a need to take a look because of how severe head injuries were. “Stick your hand out and let me take your pulse.”

Wen Xinya hurriedly stuck her right hand out.

After taking her pulse, Du Shinan hesitated for a moment before saying, “Apart from the conditions that Ruoruo mentioned, your body is in a weak state. You mustn’t let it be affected again.”

Besides, Wen Xinya was a premature baby and had led a hard life since childhood. Hence, she was much weaker compared to others, though she did not have any major illnesses. Although she had nursed her body back to health in recent years, all of her efforts had gone in vain after the abduction.

Wen Xinya said with a nod, “Got it, Grandpa Du.”

Du Shinan then checked the injury on her head and said, “The wound on your head does seem to be healing well, though.” He then pressed the spot on her head and asked, “Do you still feel giddy or nauseous?”

Wen Xinya held her pain and nausea back and nodded. “Yes!”

Du Shinan said, “The blood clot in your head has yet to heal completely. I’ll give you some acupuncture.”

Old Mr. Du performed acupuncture on her, after which the pain and giddiness in her head miraculously disappeared. She remarked in awe of Old Mr. Du, “Grandpa Du, you’re really impressive. No wonder you’re regarded highly in the Traditional Chinese Medicine field.”

Du Shinan said, “You’re already injured and yet you’re still so stubborn. I know you tend to dwell too much on things, but you must try your best to have an open heart and get more rest. You must also make it a point to refrain from straining your eyes and mind. Watch less television and read fewer books. You also have to watch your diet. Avoid oily foods and rest in bed, though you should also take a walk occasionally to improve blood circulation and boost recovery of your wounds.”

Du Ruo stuck her tongue out at Wen Xinya.

Wen Xinya blinked at her.

Du Shinan glared at her and asked, “Are you being disobedient? Well, if you don’t listen, you’ll end up in the same plight as Ning Shuqian!”

Wen Xinya hung her head low and obeyed the instructions.

Du Ruo smiled quietly at the side.

Seeing that she had conceded, Du Shinan said, “Your Grampy doesn’t know the seriousness of things. You’ve got such a great injury on your head and he didn’t even tell me about it. You’d be in less pain if you let me perform acupuncture on you earlier.”

He had only heard about it from Old Mr. Mo over the phone yesterday. He could not help but sympathize with Wen Xinya, for she had been through a great deal of suffering. And to make matters worse, she even got kidnapped again. Fortunately... she was rescued.

Wen Xinya smiled and said, “You’re the Godly Master Du. I wouldn’t dare to trouble you.”

Old Mr. Mo had actually thought about requesting Old Mr. Du to take a look at her condition. However, he was stopped by Wen Xinya, who thought that there was no need to trouble Old Mr. Du over such a minor injury. Besides, Si Yiyan had already hired a Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner. Although the Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner could not hold a candle to Old Mr. Du, he could still treat her not too severe condition.

Du Ruo interjected; “Xinya, you’re wrong. Not only are you Old Mr. Mo’s granddaughter, but you’re also Grandpa’s student. Grandpa dotes on you more than he dotes on me. Well... he was attending a Traditional Chinese Medicine seminar in Jiang City but rushed back right after hearing that you had gotten kidnapped. As soon as he returned home, he pulled me out of the research room and rushed to the hospital without even showing me any concern.”

Du Ruo wouldn’t have known that Wen Xinya had gotten kidnapped otherwise.

Du Shinan smacked Du Ruo on her head and chided. “What are you blabbering about?”

Pouting her lips indignantly, Du Ruo said, “It’s true. Ever since you met Xinya, you stopped doting on me, Grandpa. It’s the same for Grandpa Zhong.”

Wen Xinya burst into laughter. Old Mr. Du indeed treated her like his own. “I also find that my Grampy dotes on you more than he dotes on me.”

Du Ruo was speechless.

Wen Xinya suddenly asked, “Grandpa Du, I have a friend who was forced by his enemy to swallow some toxic chemical which infiltrated his chest and lungs. He had to undergo three reconstruction surgeries, but there were severe side effects. Whenever he gets a relapse, he’d bleed internally and air will accumulate in his chest and lungs. Is there a cure for his condition?”

After hearing about Si Yiyan’s condition, she had consulted the doctor, who said that it was, in fact, much worse than Si Yiyan had described, because he had missed the best timing for treatment, thus causing there to be some damage done to his chest and lungs. If he did not undergo another surgery as soon as possible, he would be prone to more relapses.

She was terribly upset at the thought of Si Yiyan’s old ailment. Given how skilled Old Mr. Du was, she was certain that he might have a solution for Si Yiyan’s condition.

Upon hearing her words, Old Mr. Du answered, “That’s not difficult to treat. My special acupuncture can treat it easily. However, you said that your friend has got that ailment because he ingested some poisonous chemicals. I reckon his condition must be very complicated. I can’t be certain for now. I have to look at your friend before I can come to a conclusion.”

Wen Xinya was overjoyed, for she felt that Si Yiyan’s condition would definitely improve if Old Mr. Du was willing to treat Si Yiyan. “Thank you, Grandpa Du. I’ll get him to visit you one day. You must think of a way to treat him.”

She initially wanted to bring Old Mr. Du to Si Yiyan’s ward. However, after giving it some careful thought, she realized that it would be rather inappropriate to do so. Hence, she decided to wait until his condition stabilized. After all, it was not appropriate for everyone to know about her relationship with Si Yiyan.

Du Shinan smiled and said, “You may get him to look for me or Du Ruo whenever he’s free. I’ll do my best to help.”

In high spirits, Wen Xinya felt a strong urge to tell Si Yiyan about the good news immediately.
