The more he looked at Yongxuan, the more his brows furrowed, his eyes filled with disbelief, and his hands trembled as he held the object of his thought.
As if he couldn't even imagine the result he had given, Yongxuan tried again several times, but the result was always the same.
Finally, he stood up, his upright body swaying slightly, his gaze somewhat vacant and unfocused.
He seemed to know why his father, mother, and grandmother had such complicated and sad expressions when he was born, and he also knew why his father and mother wouldn't tell him the reason no matter how much he asked.
They also knew why all the imperial physicians who had treated Youyou disappeared after that.
At that time, the political situation was turbulent and chaotic. If outsiders knew about Yu Yu's situation, it would mean that someone else would hold her life in their hands, and she would be in danger of losing her life at any moment.
After a long while, Xiao Jian still hadn't seen Yongxuan come to help treat his wounds. He realized something was wrong, looked up, and saw the blank look on Yongxuan's face and the disbelief in his eyes.
Forget about bandaging the wound, she got up and pulled Yongxuan away to take Chen Nian's pulse herself.
...
It’s over…
The junior sister's illness, which had been suppressed by her master using special methods, has been broken through. Now, anyone with medical knowledge can see the junior sister's physical condition.
"Did you know that Youyou has a heart condition?"
Pulled away by Xiao Jian, Yongxuan asked Xiao Jian in a hoarse voice, a sour feeling rising in his throat. He had thought he still had plenty of time to make up for Youyou, but now Youyou's condition was hard for him to accept.
"Stop trying, it'll just lead to the same result."
Seeing Yongxuan hesitate and try again, still unable to accept the result, Xiao Jian calmed his own flustered mind, pretended to be composed, and sat back down on the bed to help bandage Chen Nian's hand injury.
Without pausing his hands or raising his head, he meticulously bandaged Chen Nian's wounds, speaking softly that shattered Yong Xuan's illusions.
The matter has come to this point, and it can no longer be concealed.
He thought that his junior sister had anticipated this outcome when she started fighting, which is why she asked Yongxuan to treat her injuries and resolutely refused to let Doctor Hu treat her.
"Is there no cure...?"
Yongxuan spoke each word with great difficulty.
He regretted abandoning Youyou back then. No matter what, they should have faced it together, instead of being told now that he would have no chance to make amends in the future.
"No, Junior Sister's illness is incurable. If she were to suffer another injury, her body would likely become even weaker..."
You come from Medicine King Valley, and your medical skills are better than mine. You should know that Junior Sister's illness is incurable... She can only be nursed back to health. Perhaps she could have recovered before... but now... I'm afraid it's difficult..."
Xiao Jian honestly told Yongxuan that his master and Yongxuan's master were fellow disciples, and they recognized each other the first time they saw Yongxuan.
They never expected that their junior sister was Yongxuan's younger sister, and Youyou was the junior sister that Xiao Jian kept talking about.
How did you two meet?
"When Master first met Junior Sister, she had suffered a huge shock and her health had deteriorated. It was Master who took out some kind of pill and saved her. Later..."
When Yongxuan asked, Xiao Jian didn't hide anything and explained in a detached voice how they met and their relationship.
"Youyou... Brother was wrong..."
Listening to Xiao Jian's words and looking at the unconscious person, Yongxuan raised his hand to brush the hair off Chen Nian's cheek, and he was filled with self-blame.
The greatest trauma of my childhood was the departure of my parents, and then his departure as well...
