Jiang Nian didn't want to explain anything further.

Since these people have never seen anything like it, let them broaden their horizons.

Traditional Chinese medicine has faced too much prejudice in recent years due to the impact of Western medicine.

What their ancestors left behind is not some outdated remnant of the times, but a true treasure unique to China.

Jiang Nian's phone vibrated in her pocket. She glanced at the caller ID and said, "I'll take this call."

Then he turned and went to the stairs.

I pressed the call button, and a slightly aged voice came through the phone.

"Niannian, how is the person you wanted to save?"

“He’s awake, Master,” Jiang Nian said.

"It's good that you're awake."

On the other end of the phone, Gu Qingcheng, China's leading master of traditional Chinese medicine, spoke with an air of expectation, "I know your medical skills best. A mere cerebral hemorrhage is no challenge for you."

"This is the first time I've heard you so anxious about someone. Who is that man to you?"

Who is Si Boye to her?

My hand holding the phone paused.

"It's...someone I like."

This was the first time Jiang Niansheng had ever said such a thing.

If she was confused and bewildered before, the moment she saw Si Boye lying unconscious on the operating table, the sudden stop in her heart told her the answer.

She probably likes Si Boye.

Because I like it, I care about it, and therefore I'm afraid of it.

Gu Qingcheng's cheerful voice came from the other end of the phone.

"I knew it. You've grown up, haven't you..."

On the other side.

"Mom, I'm fine now. This little injury will heal with rest."

"You take your uncle with you and leave. I'll stay at the Fu family's house tonight."

Si Boye spoke, his tone utterly lazy.

The person who was in a car accident and was shot, and almost died just now, didn't seem to take it to heart.

"You child, you're really scaring me to death every day!"

Mrs. Si is almost going crazy.

What mother receives news of her son's death every few days?

A month ago, it was said that her son's plane crashed and his body was never found. She fainted from crying seven or eight times in those days. Later, her son came back to life.

Today was the same. She called again, saying she was in a car accident and had been shot. Then she mentioned that she had a brain hemorrhage and the surgery might not be successful, which scared her half to death.

What terrible things has she done?

"cousin……"

Seeing that she was being ignored, Zhou Qinya bit her lip.

Although Si Boye was her cousin in name only, she had feelings for him from the first moment she saw him.

How many people in this world can possess both such a good physique and appearance, as well as such family background and power?

The man's dazzling face and nonchalant demeanor alone captivated her, making her yearn to be close to him.

That's why she was so hostile when she saw the girl named Jiang Nian.

This Jiang Nian must also be trying to get close to her cousin, just like her. She's so young, but she's quite cunning.

I just don't know how this girl managed to revive someone with an acute cerebral hemorrhage using only a few needles.

“You are the daughter of my uncle’s second wife and ex-husband. You are not related to me by blood, so don’t call me cousin.”

Si Boye gave her a cold look.

“Look…” Zhou Qinya forced back, “Mr. Si, although you are awake now, it’s not necessarily thanks to Jiang Nian. Or perhaps, the acupuncture she did for you might have some side effects.”

"How about I stay here today too?"

"After all, compared to a high school student who's somehow learned some traditional Chinese medicine, I'm the professional. Having someone knowledgeable in medicine around means I can take care of you if anything happens..."

"No need."

Who does he think he is to compare himself to Nian Nian?

Si Boye heard everything Zhou Qinya said to Jiang Nian.

Losing patience, he said directly, "I'll count to three, then get out of my sight, or I'll have someone throw you out."

Zhou Changgeng glared at her: "Bo Ye, even if there's no blood relation, Qin Ya is still your sister. How can you talk to her like that?"

"three."

Si Boye's voice was neither salty nor bland.

"two."

Zhou Changgeng could no longer stand.

He knew his nephew's temperament better than anyone.

To put it nicely, he's capricious; to put it bluntly, he's a madman. And to make matters worse, he's a madman who stands at the pinnacle of power in Jiangcheng, with the means to do whatever he pleases.

He said he would throw people out, and he really meant it.

"one--"

Before Si Boye could finish uttering the last syllable of his sentence, Zhou Changgeng had already grabbed Zhou Qinya.

He gritted his teeth and said to Madam Si, "Look at the fine son you've raised!"

"I was worried something might have happened to him, so I brought Qinya to see him. I didn't expect this ungrateful little brat to not respect his uncle at all. Qinya, let's go!"

Si Boye casually lifted his eyelids.

They didn't take those words to heart at all.

Lin Qian silently gave a thumbs-up behind his boss.

Their CEO, Bo, is the most protective person of his own.

Zhou Qinya dared to speak to Miss like that just now, and the fact that she was only told to get out of sight is already a big favor from President Bo, considering her uncle's feelings.

*

Jiang Nian called back and found that Madam Si and several other people were no longer there.

Only Si Boye and Fu Jinyi stood there.

Upon seeing the girl, Si Boye hissed and frowned.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Nian immediately went over.

"The wound hurts a little..." Si Boye took Jiang Nian's hand and pressed his 187cm height against the 165cm girl's body, his voice hoarse, "Baby, hold me up."

Jiang Nian took a deep breath.

Even if she had fallen in love with him, she couldn't stand Si Boye's clingy nicknames every day.

Especially since there were other people present.

Fu Jinyi, dressed in a suit and wearing gold-rimmed glasses, stood calmly to the side.

In fact, I was almost unable to watch it anymore.

He was just saying "it's just a minor injury," but now that the girl has arrived, he's so weak he can barely stand.

That's far too cunning.

"Miss Jiang, are you staying here with me tonight too?" Fu Jingyi asked Jiang Nian.

Someone is plotting an assassination in Tanzhou, and Si Boye needs to send people to investigate and eliminate them, so he will stay at the Fu family's residence first.

Although the Fu family should be safe, Si Boye was injured. She couldn't rest easy not being by his side.

"If it's not too much trouble," Jiang Nian said.

She was originally staying in Beijing with her classmates tonight, but now that she's staying at the Fu family's house, she doesn't need to report to her older brother anymore.

“No trouble at all,” Fu Jinyi said.

It's not too late yet.

"Baby, do you want to play games?"

Si Boye leaned closer and said, "Jin Yi, the gaming equipment here is top-notch. If you're bored, go play. I'm going to talk to him about something."

Jiang Nian asked, "What kind of game is it?"

Fu Jingyi explained, "It's a very popular 100-player competitive game called Sunset Survival. I don't know if you've heard of it."
