Although Ye Weiwei was carrying the smallest of the three, it still weighed almost 100 pounds.
Ye Weiwei waved her hand dismissively, "I'm fine, get in the car quickly."
Huo Xiao stepped forward and took the bag off Ye Weiwei's shoulder, then said, "You follow behind me, Fang Ming will bring up the rear."
After saying that, he squeezed onto the bus first.
Ye Weiwei curled her lips slightly, said nothing more, and followed Huo Xiao into the car.
After Fang Ming helped them put their things down, he told them to be careful on the road before getting out of the car.
Fang Ming bought them two lower berths, which were in a good location, close to the dining car, making it convenient to eat and get hot water, since the journey to the Northwest would take four days and four nights by train.
Ye Weiwei and Huo Xiao's appearances immediately attracted everyone's attention as soon as they entered the carriage. A little girl in the upper bunk was so fascinated by Huo Xiao that she lost her grip on her apple and dropped it to the ground. She was so embarrassed that she blushed and wished she could disappear into the ground.
Ye Weiwei found it amusing, picked up the apple and handed it to her. The little girl stammered a thank you, looking awkwardly cute.
After tidying up his things and his bed, Huo Xiao filled two kettles with hot water. Since he wasn't very hungry, he took the food he had brought from home to the dining room and had it heated up. The two of them ate a little something for dinner, and then Huo Xiao told Ye Weiwei to rest first.
Ye Weiwei told Huo Xiao that she would sleep for the first half of the night and Huo Xiao would sleep for the second half, and then she lay down to sleep.
Last night, Huo Xiao insisted that he wouldn't be able to be intimate for a long time during this trip to the Northwest, so he wanted to have his fill all at once, and he went on and on without restraint.
She had gotten up very early that morning and was quite tired after a busy day.
Huo Xiao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Ye Weiwei had fallen asleep in no time. He had been worried that his wife wouldn't be able to sleep in such an unfamiliar environment, but now it seemed that his wife was quite carefree.
Ye Weiwei was awakened by a commotion.
Huo Xiao noticed as soon as he woke up, and then gently comforted him, "It's okay, you can go back to sleep. I'll be right here watching over you."
Ye Weiwei yawned, and while asking what happened, she extended her spiritual energy.
Then she realized that the noise was coming from the dining car next to theirs, the one that catered exclusively to foreign guests.
A blond, blue-eyed man, his face covered in cold sweat and his lips pale, was accompanied by someone who was angrily yelling at the train conductor and the train manager, clearly very agitated.
The translator beside her was translating the foreign guest's words with an unpleasant expression. Ye Weiwei could tell that the translator was racking his brains to find a way to make the train attendant and conductor less embarrassed. However, although the train attendant and conductor did not understand foreign languages, they were not stupid. They could guess from the other party's expression and actions that the other party was definitely not saying anything nice.
But who could have imagined such a problem would arise?
The chefs and staff at the food truck next to them were almost in tears. They were willing to swear on their lives that the food they made was absolutely clean and hygienic, and that the blond, blue-eyed foreigner's problem was definitely not caused by eating their food.
The train conductor was at his wits' end. Although it was the first time he had encountered such a situation, he managed to remain calm. He had the translator reassure the foreign guests and then immediately sent someone to find out if there was a doctor on the train.
The most urgent and important task is to treat the foreign guests.
Ye Weiwei used her mental power to observe the blond, blue-eyed foreigner named John and noticed some red bumps on his neck, which gave her a general idea of what was going on.
This person is very likely suffering from a food allergy.
Food allergies can be fatal if they are severe.
Although she disliked his friend, Ye Weiwei couldn't just watch him get into trouble on the train since they had run into each other.
They were able to buy sleeper tickets thanks to Fang Ming having a friend on this train; if something happened to the foreign guest, his friend would likely be implicated as well.
On a larger scale, it could even affect the diplomacy between the two countries.
"It seems someone over there is sick, I'll go check on them." Ye Weiwei got up, tidied herself up, and took out silver needles from her bag.
The little girl sleeping on the top bunk saw Ye Weiwei's silver needles and her eyes lit up. "You know medicine too?"
Ye Weiwei smiled and nodded.
The young girl recognized the voice as coming from the foreign guests' carriage. Seeing Ye Weiwei about to leave, she quickly grabbed her arm and said, "I think you shouldn't go. Those foreigners only believe in Western medicine and don't believe in traditional Chinese medicine at all. They won't let you treat them even if you go."
Ye Weiwei saw her good intentions and said with a smile, "Let's go and see first, just in case we can't find a doctor."
When the little girl realized she couldn't persuade him, she stopped trying.
Huo Xiao stood up and straightened his clothes: "I'll go with you."
Ye Weiwei waved her hand, "No need, I can go by myself. You rest for a while."
Huo Xiao refused, saying, "My mother told me to protect you."
Seeing his insistence, Ye Weiwei had no choice but to agree.
When the two arrived, John had already begun to experience difficulty breathing and became delirious; his condition was very serious.
When the train conductor heard that Ye Weiwei was a doctor, he looked at her suspiciously.
Huo Xiao first looked at Ye Weiwei to ask if she could cure him. After Ye Weiwei nodded, he said before the train conductor could question him, "You are Fang Ming's friend, right? I am Huo Xiao. My wife once treated Fang Ming's seriously injured comrade Li Hao. If you don't believe me, you can call Fang Ming to verify."
Seeing that Huo Xiao was upright and didn't seem to be lying, and that he couldn't find any other doctors in the middle of the night, the train conductor had no choice but to let Ye Weiwei give it a try due to the urgency of the situation.
"Thank you for your help, sir."
Ye Weiwei waved her hand, then watched as someone stepped forward to lay the foreign guest flat, examined his eyes, and then had his shirt unbuttoned before inserting the needle.
John's friend Creek, upon hearing that a doctor had been found, assumed it was Huo Xiao and that Ye Weiwei was Huo Xiao's assistant. Therefore, he did not stop Ye Weiwei at first and even cooperated with her.
Because he saw that John's condition was so bad, he dared not delay.
But when he saw Ye Weiwei insert several silver needles into John's body while Huo Xiao didn't move at all, Creek realized he had been tricked. He reached out to push Ye Weiwei away and angrily cursed, "You despicable yellow-skinned monkeys! You lowly race, how dare you joke with my friend's life! You deserve to die! You... all of you will pay the price for this!"
With one hand inserting the needle, Ye Weiwei gently pushed Crick, causing him to stumble, and before the translator could finish, she coldly said in a foreign language, "Shut up! If your ignorance, prejudice, and rudeness delay your friend's treatment, then you are the real culprit who killed your friend!"
Huo Xiao strode to Ye Weiwei's side, narrowing his eyes and coldly staring at Creek, silently warning him that if he dared to make any more moves, he wouldn't hesitate to teach him a lesson.
