At home, Master Nie dressed more casually, still sporting his messy hair with a few knots, wearing plaid pajamas and cotton slippers with gray and white plaid uppers, just like his bathrobe.
Ye Qingqing also discovered that the master really liked this color scheme. Apart from his pajamas and slippers, his bed sheets, duvet covers, and curtains were all checkered, either black and white or gray and white, much like the boundaries of a Go board.
Master Nie was pale and looked exhausted. He looked at Ye Qingqing suspiciously, as if trying to figure out who she was. His cousin whispered in his ear, "This pretty young lady is Sister Xiaotong. Didn't we meet at the hotel last time? Your memory is really... amazing at memorizing chess scores, but remembering people is like a life-or-death struggle..."
My cousin really dislikes the master. He has no ability to take care of himself. If it weren't for her, the master probably wouldn't even have a problem eating.
Master Nie remembered, gave Ye Qingqing a cool smile, pointed to the stool and said, "Sit!"
Not a single word was said.
My cousin quickly laughed and said, "That's just his temper. He treats his superiors the same way. Don't take it to heart."
"Master, this is true character, remaining untainted by the mud." Ye Qingqing gave him a compliment.
Flattery will get you everywhere, and Master Nie was no exception. He was quite pleased with Ye Qingqing's praise and found her more agreeable. A slight smile appeared on his face as he generously took out his treasure—
Happy fat otaku potato chips.
"eat."
In short, the master tossed out a bag of potato chips and openly started munching on them. He was eating them to entertain his guests, so his cousin had no reason to say anything to him.
Watching the master devour the food with such gusto, Ye Qingqing's lips twitched. She seriously suspected that the master had given her a packet because she wanted some.
My cousin snatched the potato chips away, saying, "You don't eat regular meals, you just eat this all day long. Even Xiao Mao Mao is more sensible than you. Stop eating them."
The master pouted, feeling wronged, and licked his lips with his tongue. He found a small piece of leftover potato chip and was pleasantly surprised, like a child finding a treasure.
"Teacher, my sister is amazing..."
Xiao Tong sincerely said that he truly hoped his master would be healthy and not always sickly.
"You can treat illnesses?" Master Nie looked at Ye Qingqing with suspicion, not quite believing that a mere young girl could have any real skills.
Ye Qingqing smiled and said, "Of course, the medical skills are quite good."
Master Nie snorted lightly, deciding to give his precious disciple face. He stretched out his equally pale hand and said arrogantly, "Take a look at what ailment I have!"
He actually felt that he was in good health, but he was troubled by the frequent colds. What troubled him even more was that the doctor always said that he couldn't eat this or do that, which made him lose all his energy.
Ye Qingqing carefully took the master's pulse and frowned slightly. The master's body was weaker than she had imagined. Fortunately, there were no major problems. The most troublesome issues were neurasthenia and diabetes. The others could be cured with proper care.
"You're actually not sick."
Ye Qingqing considered this carefully before speaking. She could tell that Master Nie was very resistant to doctors and did not have the self-awareness of a patient. He certainly did not like to hear people say that he was sick.
Sure enough, Master Nie's expression softened, and he said that he was not sick and that those quack doctors were talking nonsense.
"You're actually quite capable."
My cousin got anxious and was very dissatisfied with Ye Qingqing. This little girl was talking nonsense. She tried every day to get the master to take his medicine, and she talked herself hoarse. This little girl said he was not sick. In the future, the master will definitely have an excuse not to take his medicine.
Ye Qingqing changed the subject and said with a smile, "You are not sick, but you are suffering from malnutrition and lack of sleep, which has led to a weakened immune system. You still need to take care of yourself."
