Ye Qingqing went to Xiao Tong's room, where Xiao Tong was still fast asleep. She had been sleeping for nearly six hours since morning.
"Xiaotong doesn't seem to be sleeping very soundly. I hope she's alright," Ye Mingcheng asked worriedly.
He stayed by her side all afternoon. Although Xiao Tong was asleep, her brows furrowed more and more, and she was sweating profusely. Her complexion was also not good. Ye Mingcheng thought that Xiao Tong was having a nightmare.
Ye Qingqing checked her pulse, and it was still very erratic, but otherwise there was nothing seriously wrong.
Let's see tomorrow.
Ye Qingqing fed Xiaotong nutritional pills and brain-boosting supplements. Since Master Nie and Cui Shi both said it was due to overuse of the brain, she would treat it as such.
A night passed, and Xiaotong still hadn't woken up, but her face wasn't as pale, her pulse was more normal, and the corners of her mouth were curved, as if she was dreaming of something delicious. Ye Qingqing was relieved; she had spent the whole night studying medical texts and found similar cases.
Xiao Tong's current condition is indeed due to overworking his brain. The patient in the medical classic was a young general who commanded a famous battle in which he won against overwhelming odds. It took him seven days and seven nights to plan the march and ultimately achieve victory.
However, after winning the battle, the general slept for seven days and seven nights. The emperor and his family were very worried and invited one of Ye Qingqing's seniors. This senior said that the general had overused his brain and that his deep sleep was just his body's self-protection. He would wake up naturally after he had slept enough.
Sure enough, the general woke up seven days later, feeling perfectly fine. From then on, he became even more valiant in battle and became a very famous and ever-victorious general.
Ye Qingqing felt that Xiao Tong's situation was very similar to that of the general, so she was no longer worried. Moreover, she hoped that after Xiao Tong woke up, she could be like that ever-victorious general and win every game of chess in the future.
Several guests arrived in the morning, all to visit Xiaotong. They were leaders from the local Go Association, as well as some Go players. Ye Qingqing recognized one of them; she thought she had seen him at the celebration banquet in Pingjiang, and his name was Nakamura Yue.
At that time, Sihao Xing wanted to harm Xiao Tong, so he used Nakamura Yue as an excuse, saying that he was talking to this chess player the whole time, so he didn't pay attention to Xiao Tong. Because Xiao Tong's situation was critical at the time, Ye Qingqing was impressed by this young chess player.
Nakamura Yue was still quite shy. After offering her polite greetings, she sat up straight and didn't say a word, only listening to the leaders speak the whole time.
The local Go association leaders suggested that Xiaotong go to the hospital for a check-up, and they could help arrange it. Ye Qingqing politely declined, saying that she was a doctor herself.
The leaders didn't trust Ye Qingqing too much, thinking that she was too young to be a skilled doctor. They didn't want anything to happen to such an excellent chess player as Xiaotong, so they insisted that Xiaotong go to the hospital for treatment.
Nakamura Yue couldn't help but say, "Miss Ye is a very skilled doctor, as Mr. Kinami said."
He was two years older than Tsumabuki Minami and one level lower in skill, but the two had a good relationship and kept in touch privately. So he knew that Ye Qingqing was treating Tsumabuki Mai's illness, and he also knew that Tsumabuki Mai's condition had improved significantly, and Tsumabuki Minami had praised Ye Qingqing highly!
The leaders were quite surprised, but they didn't insist any further. Even Tsumabuki Minami had said so, so it seemed that the beautiful girl's medical skills were indeed very impressive. They had nothing more to say.
The leaders sat for a while before taking their leave. Nakamura Yue also left, but soon returned, looking embarrassed, but still mustered up the courage to speak, "Dr. Ye, could you please treat my mother?"
Although Ye Qingqing was surprised, she asked about Nakamura Yue's mother's condition. It wasn't a particularly serious illness; it was probably due to overworking when she was young, which caused joint damage, similar to chronic leg pain in China.
She had a good impression of Nakamura Yue, and the young man was also very filial, so she agreed. Since she was going to the Tsumabuki family home in the afternoon, she went to the Nakamura family home in the morning. They chatted on the way and unknowingly started talking about Tsumabuki Minami.
"It's all thanks to you that Miss Mai was cured, otherwise I was worried that Kinami-kun wouldn't have survived!" Nakamura Yue exclaimed.
