Chapter 21 The Clever Little Leaf



A day later, when Maomao checked Weibo again, the two trending topics about her and her group were gone.

However, her number of followers increased from 8250 to [number missing], and whether it was intentional or not, it didn't break that small number.

These new followers are all there to criticize her.

"Boring," the cat commented.

Just then, Dr. Ye arrived.

The maid led him inside, and only after he came in did the cat realize that he hadn't come alone; there was someone with him.

“Miss Jiu, this is my son, Ye Mingshi, who is also a doctor. I had him assist me with your leg injury without informing you beforehand, and I hope you don’t mind,” Doctor Ye said.

The cat stared expressionlessly at the baby-faced man with two dimples when he smiled.

"Dad, don't introduce me. I know Maomao. I'm a big fan of hers." Ye Mingshi said with a grin. He had an innocent-looking face, especially when he smiled. He was the kind of person who could charm people of all ages and genders.

The cat showed a slight expression; she certainly remembered! This was the fan she had met just two days ago!

"Aren't you a fan of Xintian anymore?" the cat asked him.

Come to think of it, this was the first time she had ever heard anyone other than Ah Jin call her by her name...

She hadn't noticed that Jiu Yebai, that kid, acted like a grown-up, refusing to call her "sister" or her name.

When Maomao first saw Ye Ming, she was unhappy. She wasn't stupid. What a coincidence that she could just randomly meet a fan who turned out to be Dr. Ye's son?

But when Ye Ming called her "cat," her unhappiness vanished instantly.

Ye Mingshi is very good at reading people's expressions. He immediately said, "No, I'm a fan of Jiu Maomao! You have no idea, ever since I saw that photo of you on the trending topics, I haven't been able to eat or sleep. From now on, I'm your number one fan."

Seeing that he was about to speak eloquently, Doctor Ye coughed lightly and interrupted him, "Miss Jiu, let me give you acupuncture first."

Ye Mingshi chuckled and stopped talking, obediently assisting Doctor Ye.

While Dr. Ye was recording the medical records, Ye Mingshi very attentively took over the servant's job and went to the kitchen to brew the medicine.

The cat turned its head and glanced at the kitchen, where Ye Mingshi's tall figure stood out somewhat out of place.

He was wearing a bright orange T-shirt, cropped cargo pants, and sneakers.

She also had a small braid tied at the back of her head.

At first glance, he looks like a carefree college student, the kind of guy who's a campus heartthrob.

They don't seem like the type to be able to handle any manual labor.

But he was a doctor, and it seemed that his medical skills were inherited from the Ye family.

Therefore, decocting medicine is naturally a piece of cake.

"The recovery is going very well, much faster than I expected," Dr. Ye said.

The cat looked away, nodded, and watched as Doctor Ye skillfully and quickly removed the silver needles that had been placed on her leg.

Seemingly lost in thought.

"Why don't you use gold needles?" Cat suddenly asked, knowing that he had gold needles in his toolbox.

Doctor Ye had no doubts and simply said, "It will have the same effect on your leg injury. However, if we use gold needles, it might hurt."

The cat didn't speak, but after reading the "General Outline of the Shock Gate," she knew that if a special acupuncture technique was to be used to treat an injury, then gold needles should be used.

This "special needling technique" refers to the "Patience Needling Technique".

The Pi Men family specializes in medicine, researching intractable diseases and never passing on their medical skills to outsiders, only to the male members of the family. This inevitably reminded Maomao of the Ye family.

That old man Ye, Doctor Ye, and Ye Mingshi.

"This medicine must be drunk while it's hot, kitty." At this moment, Ye Mingshi had already brought over the decocted medicine.

The cat has been drinking this medicine for the past few days. Although it tastes bitter, she held her breath and gulped it down.

Gritting his teeth and waiting for the nausea to pass, Ye Mingshi handed him a piece of candy. The bright red candy kernel was placed on a paper-cut candy coating. "This is candy made from hawthorn puree. It's sweet and sour, and it will make the bitterness go away after eating it."

The cat looked at him, picked up the candied fruit and took a bite. It didn't taste strange; the sweet and sour taste of hawthorn quickly dispelled the bitterness of the medicine.

Seeing that she had finished eating, Ye Mingshi smacked his lips and narrowed his eyes as if he were satisfied. He touched his pocket, which was what his grandmother had put in his pocket that morning.

Even in this day and age, his grandmother still worries that he'll go hungry, and always likes to stuff all sorts of random food into his pockets.

He took everything out when he left, and this piece of candy was the only one that slipped through the net, but now he feels... he really shouldn't have gone against his grandmother's good intentions.

"Kitty, will you make a comeback after your leg injury heals?" Ye Mingshi asked, sounding just like a fan who worries about their idol.

The cat nodded.

"I remember your group's contract with Jincheng Entertainment is for five years, it should be expiring soon, right? Will you continue to work for Jincheng Entertainment?" Ye Mingshi asked again.

The cat glanced at him and said, "You know better than I do."

Ye Mingshi chuckled, making it sound so convincing, "I'm your fan."

Cat quickly realized that she wouldn't have noticed this if Ye Mingshi hadn't reminded her.

Her contract is expiring, which means Jincheng Entertainment will soon have little control over her! She's been sidelined for five years... Honey Five-Point Sweetness can finally be free.

Although these five years have been extremely difficult for all five of them.

"Let's talk about it when the contract expires," Cat said.

Ye Mingshi immediately replied, "Yes, no matter where you go to develop your career, whether you form a group or go solo, I will always be your fan."

Dr. Ye had already packed his medicine box and got up to take his leave.

Ye Mingshi, who had come to help, naturally had to leave. However, he casually asked, "Cat Cat, can I have your phone number?"

The cat asked, "Don't you have my phone number?"

Ye Mingshi flicked his palm behind his head, causing his little braid to sway, and smiled brightly and handsomely, "You found out again, I really do have one."

Cat pouted; Ye Mingshi really loves to be clever.

Even if Dr. Ye had his phone number, the fact that he came to her door clearly shows he did his homework. And he even had to put on an act in front of her. Did he think she was stupid?

-------------------------------------

"Sigh, what a clever cat!" Ye Mingshi remarked.

His intuition was right. Although it was just a brief encounter that day, the natural way he spoke and acted showed that he was not a confused person at all.

Today, after trying it out a little, he became even more certain. He didn't know much about Jiu Xintian before; his only knowledge of her was of the woman in the hot air balloon who was dancing and wearing a wedding dress...

However, just imagine if Jiu Mao Mao did that again now... it just feels strange!

Was he really forced into this situation by the entertainment industry?

Anyway, you have to see people in person, not just hearsay.

"Why are you suddenly interested in Jiu Xintian?" Doctor Ye suddenly asked him.
