Ye Qingqing rushed forward and helped Xiao Tong up. Seeing that his face was pale and his forehead was covered with sweat, she became anxious and asked, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
"Headache……"
Xiao Tong looked pained, his head felt like it was about to explode. He had never felt such pain before. His vision went black, and he staggered. Lu Mo simply hugged him tightly.
"Why do you have a headache? Don't be afraid, Xiaotong, let me take a look..."
Ye Qingqing was a little flustered. She was very calm when treating other patients, but when it came to Xiaotong, she forgot even the basic procedures. Lu Mo squeezed her hand hard, and she slowly calmed down.
Ye Qingqing took Xiaotong's pulse, but it was erratic and she couldn't figure out what was wrong. Xiaotong's headache was getting worse and worse. She leaned against Lu Mo's chest and couldn't even speak, which broke Ye Qingqing's heart.
"I can't figure out what's wrong, I'm so useless..."
Ye Qingqing didn't dare to insert needles randomly, for fear of causing problems for her younger brother. She used to be proud of her medical skills, but now she felt useless, unable to even cure a minor headache.
"Don't worry, it's probably just from overworking her brain. Let Xiaotong sleep for a while."
Lu Mo pressed Xiao Tong's sleeping acupoint, which was the safest method. Xiao Tong fell into a deep sleep, but his brows were tightly furrowed, indicating that even though he was asleep, his headache was still lingering.
Master Nie came over, not too worried, and comforted them, "It's just that he overworked his brain. This child is far inferior to Xiao Cui in terms of skill. He was thinking too much just now, which is why he has a headache. Let him get a good night's sleep and give him some calming and brain-boosting medicine. It's nothing serious."
He's been there; he knows that you'll experience these symptoms whenever you challenge someone of a higher level. Although it's uncomfortable for a while, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages. Master Nie believes that challenging someone of a higher level is the best way to develop your brain. So when he was young, he challenged all the masters who were stronger than him, and his chess skills did improve significantly, but he also developed headaches.
Cui Shi said the same thing; he, like Master Nie, had such an experience.
Ye Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief and gave Xiao Tong a calming pill so he could sleep a little longer.
But what no one knew was that Xiao Tong, who was supposed to be asleep, was actually more awake than anyone else. However, he was not in the real world, but in another dimension, surrounded by moving and changing chess pieces. It was the very game of chess that he had played with Cui Shi earlier, which Xiao Tong had completely recreated in his mind, without missing a single move.
In his own Go world, Xiaotong is replaying the game. He has memorized all of Cui Shi's moves and is playing against himself, which is very intense.
Ye Mingcheng took Xiaotong back to the hotel and stayed with her. In the afternoon, Ye Qingqing and Lu Mo went to Tsumabuki Minami's house to give Tsumabuki Mai acupuncture. Wuchen also went with them.
Tsumabuki Minami watched the competition in the morning, had lunch with Cui Shi and Master Nie, so he was with Ye Qingqing and the others in the afternoon. He had met Wuchen before and was a little surprised to see her there, but he didn't say anything.
"Wuchen heard that the scenery around your house is beautiful and wants to go and see it," Ye Qingqing explained.
Minami Tsumabuki smiled and said, "Welcome, I'll accompany her for a stroll in a bit."
"No need to accompany her, just let her look around nearby. Lu Mo can accompany her." Ye Qingqing changed the subject, "How is Miss Mai?"
Mu Nan's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "Your medicine is very effective. Mayi is much better and is not in as much pain as before. We all think Mayi will get better."
