Ye Qingqing has been treating Hua Xiaolou for a while now, following the medical treatment plan. She has been treating him for over a month, but the results are not very obvious.

The patient in the medical classic was in a similar condition to Hua Xiaolou, but he saw results within a month. He felt much lighter and his complexion improved.

However, Hua Xiaolou was still the same as when she enrolled: pale-faced, speaking softly, and walking like a willow swaying in the wind. This annoyed Ye Qingqing, who couldn't understand what was wrong.

Hua Xiaolou sat alone in the corner, still wearing patched clothes, but he didn't look shabby at all. Instead, he had the air of a poor but noble young man.

There were many empty seats around him, and he didn't talk to anyone, just sat quietly, looking like a pitiful little thing.

Hua Xiaolou wasn't very popular among the male students in her class, and she barely spoke to her roommates. However, she was extremely popular among the girls.

Perhaps it was his sickness and weakness that aroused the female students' protective instincts. Even if a male student spoke to Hua Xiaolou in a slightly harsh tone, a female student would stand up for him and reprimand the male student.

But the more this happens, the more Hua Xiaolou isolates herself from her male classmates and becomes even more unsociable. However, it seems that Hua Xiaolou is enjoying her current state and does not yearn for friendship with the same sex. She welcomes any protection from her female classmates.

Of course, there were a few male classmates who were exceptionally kind to Hua Xiaolou, but their kindness was for ulterior motives, which was obvious to anyone with eyes to see.

"Is there something you need?" Hua Xiaolou smiled slightly at Ye Qingqing. Her originally bleak appearance suddenly became as radiant as spring sunshine, so stunning that it was impossible to look away.

The other male students all looked over with envy and jealousy. Ye Qingqing was the newly selected school beauty, but this year's school beauty was colder than a snow lotus on a high mountain, and she would go home every weekend and rarely participated in group activities.

"After class, come home with me. I want to give you a thorough check-up," Ye Qingqing said.

She suspected that the previous diagnosis of Hua Xiaolou was inaccurate and might have missed something, otherwise why would there have been no effect after more than a month of treatment?

Hua Xiaolou frowned slightly, her delicate eyebrows resembling those of Lin Daiyu, carrying a touch of melancholy that evoked pity.

This was the first time Ye Qingqing had ever seen a man more delicate than a woman. God must have been dozing off when creating humans.

"I think I'll pass. I've already troubled you for so long. With my frail health, it's really... the same whether I get treatment or not..."

Hua Xiaolou sighed deeply, her self-pitying appearance instantly arousing pity in some of the female classmates around her, who were overflowing with maternal love. They wished they could hold Hua Xiaolou in their arms and comfort her.

"We've already worked so hard for so long, it would be such a waste to give up now. How about giving me another chance?" Ye Qingqing didn't want to give up easily.

Hua Xiaolou's strange illness ignited her competitive spirit, and she also wanted to figure out what was wrong with Hua Xiaolou. It couldn't be just a heart condition, otherwise, it would be impossible that more than a month of treatment had been ineffective.

"Sigh... I've gone to so much trouble for you... This will be the last time..."

Hua Xiaolou pondered for a long time before letting out a soft sigh and agreeing.

"I'll wait for you at the school gate after class. We'll meet at 4:30!"

Ye Qingqing returned to her seat after agreeing on a time with him. Hua Xiaolou, however, remained indifferent, much to the dismay of the other male classmates who thought he was being overly pretentious.

The school beauty has already offered him a chance, and this guy is still acting so arrogantly, it's outrageous!

The one who hated the most was naturally Du Peiran, who had ulterior motives towards Ye Qingqing. He almost bit his teeth off. He didn't dare to have any complaints about Ye Qingqing, but he hated Hua Xiaolou in his heart and was determined to teach this poor guy a lesson!
