Chapter 835: Hiding Everything from Her, Ming Yu’s Danger (Part 2)
The old man's eyes were full of surprise and his voice was full of joy.
Immediately, he felt distressed again: "This little face...is darker and thinner."
Jiang Fuyue rubbed her cheek against his calloused palm, a bit intimate and a bit cute: "But it's healthier."
"Talking alone doesn't count. Come on—" Ye Qianji stretched out his hand.
Jiang Fuyue readily placed his wrist facing upwards in front of him. The old man concentrated and began to take his pulse on the spot.
After a moment, he stopped and said, "You're in good shape, but you still have to keep drinking milk."
"good."
The two of them went to the living room to talk. Niu Rui passed by the door and was caught by the old man: "Little Ruirui, where are you going?"
"Let's have breakfast. Do you want me to pack a bag for you?"
"Hey, a bowl of mutton noodles, same old rules..."
"Add more coriander, more onions, ginger and garlic. Got it!" Niu Rui responded skillfully, waved his hand skillfully, and strode away.
Ye Qianji chuckled, "This kid..."
Jiang Fuyue was happy to see that the two of them got along well, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.
The old man has been wandering around for twenty years in search of her. Now he can settle down and enjoy life, which is great.
Before, Jiang Fuyue was worried that he and Niu Rui would not get along well, and Niu Chunhua was a wanderer who was rarely seen all year round. The old and the young lived under the same roof, but their living habits, temperaments and personalities were almost completely different, so conflicts were inevitable.
But now it seems that she was overthinking it.
"Master, what do you think of Niu Rui?"
Ye Qianji smacked his lips and said, "What a lazy boy who doesn't strive for progress. All he does is eat and sleep."
"Doesn't it look quite like you..." Jiang Fuyue muttered softly.
Upon hearing this, the old man's eyes widened and his voice rose, "He's way worse than me! I'm Zhong Kui, one of the top three in the entire district, and he can even miss people when he's trying to catch them. How can we even compare? Absolutely not!"
"Yes, yes, he is just a rookie."
The old man nodded with satisfaction: "Yes! He's a sucker for it. I'm telling you, you don't even know what he's doing..."
Jiang Fuyue: “…”
I don't know how long they talked until a cold voice came: "Master, your fans."
But Niu Rui was seen leaning against the door frame, holding a takeaway bag in his hand, staring at the two of them expressionlessly. It was unknown how long he had been eavesdropping.
Ye Qianji: “!”
He walked over, put down the mutton noodles, turned around and said "humph", then walked away.
Ye Qianji: "...Little Moon, am I going a little too far?"
Jiang Fuyue: "It's okay, you can take him flying for a while, if it doesn't work..."
Ye Qianji: "Then four!"
Jiang Fuyue: “…” As long as you are happy.
"Master, how is Mingyu doing now?"
Ye Qianji paused in slurping the noodles.
Jiang Fuyue couldn't help but get nervous: "Is this not good?"
"No, it's pretty much what I expected. Everything went well. I just need some rehabilitation before I can walk again. Don't worry."
"Where's Mingyu? His phone is turned off, so I can't reach him, and I can't find him at his residence. His assistant has temporarily returned to the northwest. I don't know much about his condition, and I can't explain it clearly. I just said he's receiving treatment."
Since he is receiving treatment, Ye Qianji should know.
That's why she asked this question.
"Oh, I asked your uncle to take him back to Qinghui Mountain."
"Qinghui Mountain?"
"Well, the scenery there is beautiful, perfect for recuperation. Our Shaoyang Sect's mountain gate is located in a Feng Shui treasure land, that guy is lucky!"
Jiang Fuyue nodded without any doubt. No wonder she didn't see Cen Huaishan this time.
"Can uncle-master do it alone?" He is already old, but he still has to take care of Mingyu who is in a wheelchair.
Ye Qianji said in a relaxed tone, "You don't know this, do you? Although our Shaoyang Sect isn't as prosperous as it was thirty years ago, we still have a few disciples. There will naturally be people to take care of us when we get there."
"Besides, Cen Huaishan is not short of money, so why would it be inconvenient for him to go anywhere?"
That’s true.
In addition to being the 26th generation leader of the Shaoyang Sect, Mr. Cen is also the previous head of the Cen family and the retired chairman of the Cen Group who receives dividends. It can be said that he is extremely wealthy.
Besides, Mingyu is also a hidden rich man.
Jiang Fuyue was no longer worried. "How long will we stay in the mountains?"
"It depends on the situation. It may or may not be the case."
"All right."
After Jiang Fuyue asked for the information he wanted to know, he accompanied the old man for lunch before leaving.
"Here, it's for you." Ye Qianji put the takeaway box on Niu Rui's desk.
"No, take it away!" He was still angry.
Wasn't it just that his mechanics were terrible and he lost sixteen ranked games in a row? And the old man actually called him a noob? How could he tolerate that?!
Niu Rui also has a temper!
"You really don't want it? I packed it especially for you~" The old man smiled and waved the packaging bag in front of him.
"Hmph!" Niu Rui turned his head away.
Don't look at it, but it smells weird...
Ye Qianji sighed and said calmly, "Alright, then I'll have to deal with these top-grade double-headed abalone and Australian lobster."
"Wait a moment--"
Ye Qianji's old eyes flashed with a smile: "What?"
Niu Rui swallowed and asked, "Are there abalone and Australian lobster in here?"
"Yeah, it's pretty big, and it must have cost a few thousand. Oh, no, I have to eat it while it's hot. If it gets cold, it will have a fishy smell and affect the taste..."
Having said that, he was about to leave.
"Huh?" Niu Rui couldn't sit still any longer. "Isn't this for me? Why did you take it away again?"
"Don't you want it?"
"Ahem—I thought about it and suddenly felt a little hungry, so I'll just reluctantly accept it."
Ye Qianji stuffed the phone into his hand and said, "Eat slowly. I'm going to the basement."
"You're going to see him again?"
Ye Qianji had already walked to the painting, pressed the switch, and the secret door opened. As he went down, he did not forget to remind her: "Be careful with your words. Yueyue doesn't know yet, don't let the cat out of the bag."
"I know. I've told you eight hundred times. Do I look like someone who can't keep a secret?"
But how long can it be concealed?
well.
…
In the basement, in addition to the intelligence control system, there is also a small medical room.
The air was filled with the bitter smell of Chinese medicine, and the bitterness became stronger as the distance got closer.
Ye Qianji pushed open the isolation door and entered a whole wall of Chinese medicine cabinets. In front of the cabinets was a consultation table half a person's height, and various instruments were placed on the side.
Combining Chinese and Western cultures, bringing order amidst chaos.
Walking around the tall Chinese medicine cabinet and looking inside, there is a hospital bed with a bulge on it. Lying on it is a man with a pale face and closed eyes.
Natural light pours in from the skylight, casting a gloomy shadow over the interior.
Perhaps he was alert, or perhaps he was not asleep yet, but the light footsteps of Ye Qianji made him open his eyes.
It is Mingyu who should be recuperating in Qinghui Mountain at this moment!
"woke up?"
"Um."
"Just drink the medicine while it's hot."
Ming Yu obediently stood up. Since his legs were powerless, he could only hold the handles on both sides of the bed and sit up with the strength of his upper body.
Ye Qianji handed the medicine over: "This is the third dose. It's time to change the prescription tomorrow."
Ming Yu took the bowl of medicine and drank it in one gulp without changing his expression.
Ye Qianji tastes bitter just by looking at it, because it contains a lot of Coptis chinensis.
"Yueyue was here just now."
Mingyu paused in putting down the bowl and suddenly raised his eyes.
"Don't worry, I didn't tell her the actual situation. I just said that you and Lao Cen went to Qinghui Mountain and would stay there for a while."
Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.
"But hiding it like this is not a solution. She will find out sooner or later."
Ming Yu: "One day longer is better. By the time she finds out, my situation will at least be better than it is now. That's enough."
The better she gets, the less worried she will be.
"Originally, I promised her that I could stand and talk to her when we meet again."
According to the original plan, Ming Yu should have started rehabilitation by now, but plans cannot keep up with changes. During the second phase of acupuncture treatment, his right leg began to deteriorate rapidly, and the needle holes became inflamed and rotten.
There was no other way, Ye Qianji had to stop the treatment and reduce inflammation and remove the rot.
During this period, Mingyu was critically ill several times, but fortunately, he survived with his strong will to survive.
This delay lasted for two months, and the subsequent treatment became much more difficult.
He could only insert the needle carefully and prolong the recovery time after each insertion.
The third phase of treatment is just about to begin.
But even with such caution, Mingyu's body could not bear the heavy burden and now he couldn't even get out of bed.
His assistant did not return to the Northwest, but moved here to take care of him.
"Yueyue isn't someone who can be easily fooled. Just because she got away with it this time doesn't mean she can get away with it next time. You've known her for a while, so you should know she hates deception the most."
Mingyu fell silent.
After an unknown amount of time, he suddenly spoke, "...Can the treatment be brought forward? It doesn't matter if the medicine is a little stronger. I can handle it."
Ye Qianji was stunned.
