Zhou Yuxuan glanced at Ye Mohan, and seeing that he did not object, he nodded in agreement.
Jian Yixue looked at Ye Mohan and said solemnly, "Trust me, I won't harm you. I will do my best to treat the old man's illness."
I won't let the villains succeed. I will save the old man for you. I can't bear to see you suffer anymore.
Jian Yixue didn't say the last sentence; she couldn't be honest with him about everything about herself at the moment.
Jian Yixue quickly got to work. She took out a blue cloth bag from her handbag and opened it to reveal rows of shiny gold needles of varying lengths neatly arranged.
Upon seeing this, Ye Mohan immediately remembered that she had made a special trip upstairs before leaving.
So this is what you're after? No wonder she said it might be useful.
Ye Mohan felt a touch of warmth in his heart, which had been cold for many years.
Jian Yixue, standing by the bed, had a serious and meticulous look in her eyes. She bowed slightly, skillfully disinfected the gold needles, quickly identified the acupoints, and then swiftly inserted the needles. The whole process was smooth and seamless.
Zhou Yuxuan stared wide-eyed at Jian Yixue in front of him, utterly astonished.
Her acupuncture technique was as skillful as that of a veteran Chinese medicine doctor with decades of experience, and she even used gold needles, which are not commonly used in modern times. It was clear that she had been taught by a master and was also an extremely talented person. Otherwise, how could she be so proficient in acupuncture at such a young age?
Although he had experience with both traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine, he was more proficient in Western medicine. The profoundness of traditional Chinese medicine could not be fully understood overnight.
From his perspective, his sister-in-law was quite capable, and there were many things he could learn from her. Zhou Yuxuan instantly developed a deep admiration for Jian Yixue.
Jian Yixue was completely unaware of his thoughts. She silently counted the time and pulled out the golden needle when the time came.
Not long after the golden needles were removed, color gradually returned to Old Master Ye's face, which had been ashen. Soon after, his eyelids twitched, and he slowly opened his eyes.
Zhou Yuxuan was overjoyed to see this.
He rushed over to check on them and was overjoyed: "Your heart rate and blood pressure have returned to normal, so there's nothing to worry about for now."
He then looked at Jian Yixue and said, "Sister-in-law, you're amazing!"
As Jian Yixue put away the gold needles, she suddenly looked up and glared at him: "Hurry up and draw blood."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yuxuan immediately turned around and went to get the medical blood collection equipment to draw blood.
Hearing the conversation between the two people in front of him, Old Master Ye understood what was going on and looked at Jian Yixue: "Are you Mo Han's wife?"
Jian Yixue did not respond after hearing this, but looked at Ye Mohan not far away.
She wanted to hear him acknowledge her identity.
Ye Mohan was also looking at Jian Yixue, and when he saw her gaze, he immediately saw the expectation in her eyes.
This marriage was arranged for him by his grandfather, but now he has also fallen in love with this wife who harbors a secret.
Unraveling her secrets layer by layer was a very enjoyable thing for him.
Most importantly, she cares about herself, and he could feel that during this time.
Just like when her grandfather fainted this time, she didn't hesitate to expose her identity, even if it would make him suspicious, she did it for him.
Ye Mohan smiled slightly, walked to Jian Yixue's side, and hugged her: "Grandpa, let me formally introduce you, this is my wife, Jian Yixue."
It would be strange if Old Master Ye didn't understand.
He had been a prominent figure in the business world for decades when he was young, so his ability to judge people must be quite accurate.
Moreover, he once had a true love.
He only promised to marry Mo Han because of the woman's exceptional talent.
It's just a pity that she met the wrong person.
Grandpa Ye smiled and nodded, saying, "She really looks like her."
Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue frowned, as if she had thought of something, and quickly asked, "Does the old man know my mother?"
Old Master Ye smiled and nodded: "We knew each other more than just acquaintances. We became close friends despite our age difference because of business dealings. It's just a pity that she met the wrong person and died young."
Jian Yixue couldn't help but recall the vague woman in her memory, whose voice was so gentle and who always had a smile on her face.
"Grandpa, what kind of woman was my mother?" Jian Yixue asked somewhat nervously.
This was the first time she had ever heard someone else ask about her mother.
"She was an extraordinary woman. Most people who had interacted with her thought so... I'll tell you about her another time." Old Master Ye seemed to be lost in a memory.
Jian Yixue quietly looked at Old Master Ye, her hands involuntarily tightening.
Seeing her like this, Ye Mohan couldn't help but hug her even tighter.
Seeing this, Zhou Yuxuan walked up to the old man and said with a grin, "Grandpa Ye, let me draw a tube of blood for you."
Old Master Ye nodded and extended his hand.
Seeing this, Zhou Yuxuan quickly collected the blood and then packed his things to leave for the laboratory to study it.
"Sister-in-law, I'll let my second brother know when the results are in," Zhou Yuxuan said seriously.
He didn't have Jian Yixue's contact information. Although Jian Yixue was here, he didn't dare offend Ye Mohan, who was a jealous person, for fear of being overwhelmed.
Jane nodded in agreement.
After Zhou Yuxuan left, the rather desolate voice of Old Master Ye came from the bed: "Mo Han, there's no need to investigate anymore."
Ye Mohan's aura instantly turned cold, and he said in an unfriendly tone, "Even if he wanted your life, you wouldn't want him to get hurt?"
Jian Yixue was puzzled. Did the old man know who had harmed her? Could the person he was protecting so fiercely be...?
Thinking of this, Jian Yixue couldn't help but feel a chill run down her spine.
The old man on the bed gave a bitter smile: "I don't have many years left to live. If my life can bring him back to the right path, it will be worth it. I'm old, and I can no longer bear the thought of an old man burying his young son."
Upon hearing this, Ye Mohan's aura became even more terrifying, but he said nothing more.
Jane Yixue, who was standing to the side, realized that she had discovered the truth.
Alas, it turns out that every family has its own difficulties, even Old Master Ye has such a tragic fate.
Not to mention Ye Mohan, in her past life she had no idea about the hardships he had endured, and all she wanted was to escape him and elope with Zhao Heng.
Hearing about his situation throughout her life, she felt heartbroken for him. To see her closest loved ones harmed by their own blood relatives and be powerless to do anything about it—what torment that must have been!
She didn't know what to do if someone treated her mother like that.
"You guys go back first, I'm tired and want to rest for a while."
The old man's lonely voice reached my ears.
Upon hearing this, Ye Mohan pulled Jian Yixue out of the room.
Upon seeing Butler Jin at the door, Ye Mohan's face darkened horribly: "When did he come?"
Butler Jin was taken aback, then instantly realized who Ye Mohan was referring to: "The second young master came a few days ago and brought some tonics for the master."
Ye Mohan said in a low voice, "Throw them all out."
Seeing Ye Mohan's anger, Butler Jin trembled inwardly and quickly replied, "Yes, young master."
