Not only that, what actually made Chen Xin unable to understand was: "It can't be wrong, and Boss Hua's heart meridian is indeed damaged. It is indeed an old illness."
Upon hearing this, Wang Yanzhou didn't ask Chen Xin any more questions. He rushed forward, grabbed Hua Wuxin's collar, and asked expressionlessly, "...Are you guys hiding something from me in private?"
Hua Wuxin was like a puppet that had lost its backbone at this moment. She answered without any emotion: "I said, if she doesn't want you to know, I won't say a word."
Wang Yanzhou heard this and slowly loosened his grip. He couldn't do anything to Hua Wuxin, emotionally or logically. "If you don't tell me, I'll find a way to investigate. You saved her life, so as a lifesaver, I won't do anything to you. Your relationship with her officially began the day you saved her life, so I'll have someone investigate from that point on. Now, it's Wang Ruo's business. How much do you know about her becoming like this?"
Hua Wuxin was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head deeply: "...Now that I think about it, I don't know what's wrong with her. I didn't even know."
Wang Yanzhou guessed that Hua Wuxin's mind was in a state of confusion. Although he was also panicking, if he really panicked, it would be terrible. Then, Wang Yanzhou continued to ask, "Was there no sign before? Or, had she been infected with a poisonous insect before?"
Hua Wuxin tried to calm himself down, pondering for a moment, but to no avail. He believed he knew everything about Wang Ruo, but that was only when he was able to act. Back when he was still Jiang Ling, he had been shot in the chest while trying to save Wang Ruo. If it weren't for his encounter with a master and Hua Wuxin's selfless help, he would have long since turned to a pile of bones.
Perhaps, the reason she became what she is now was due to the evil seeds planted during that time that he could not see: "...There were a few years when I was forced to leave her due to some unexpected events. During the time I knew her, the things that made her become like this must have happened during that time."
"Then we can only look for clues after she wakes up." After saying that, Wang Yanzhou continued to instruct: "Chen Xin, they are now in your care. The things you were doing before, please hand them over to Shao Qing for the time being."
While sorting out the medicine box, Chen Xin said, "Well, I'll go back to the palace and write a pharmacy. It's not suitable for both of them to move now. If they wake up, send someone to notify me immediately."
Liang Shuyi said, "Then I'll stay here for a while. You can check on the two children when you go back."
"I know, don't work too hard."
...Tang Chen only remembered that there was a moment when his chest suddenly felt unbearable pain. From behind, it seemed as if someone hit him hard. His eyes went black and he had no memory of anything else.
When she slowly opened her eyes, what awaited her was not a blinding light, but only a faint, soft glow. Then, a large face suddenly appeared before her, and the voice of the owner of this large face called out, "Achen, Achen, can you hear me?"
Tang Chen was dazed and thought he was dreaming. He blinked hard to wake up and said, "...why are you back? Are you done with your work?"
Wang Yanzhou breathed a sigh of relief after receiving Tang Chen's response. According to Shen Xin, as long as he could wake up with a clear mind, everything would be fine. "Well, I'm done. How do you feel now? Are you hungry or thirsty?"
Tang Chen smacked his chapped lips and started ordering breakfast. "I want pickled radish and millet porridge. I want the pickled radish to be small, bite-sized. After the millet porridge is warm, please add some honey to it. It would be perfect if I had a cup of flower tea after the porridge."
Wang Yanzhou finally relaxed a little after seeing Tang Chen speak so many words in one breath without blushing or panting, and he looked no different from the healthy Tang Chen before. "Okay, I'll have them make it and send it over right away."
Seeing that the light around him was very dim, Tang Chen quickly stopped Wang Yanzhou who was about to go to the kitchen and said, "It's still pitch black outside. Is it still early?"
Wang Yanzhou smiled and said, "Yes, it's still early. I can sleep a little longer."
Tang Chen touched the dead skin on his mouth, suppressed the urge to tear it off and said, "Then pour me a glass of water first. Everyone is resting now. Let's talk after dawn."
"Okay, you have the final say."
Tang Chen was about to stand up and sit up straight when her chest suddenly started to ache. If it weren't for the pain, she would have really thought that what she had seen before was all a dream: "Hiss!"
Wang Yanzhou threw away the water cup in his hand and hurried over to support Tang Chen: "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Tang Chen said that this time it was okay, not particularly painful. However, the pain hidden behind it probably wasn't good news: "No, I'm fine. By the way, how is Ah Ruo?"
Someone who had just woken up and was only thinking about eating and drinking suddenly asked about something she seemed to have temporarily forgotten. It was really suspicious. Wang Yanzhou didn't think there was anything shameful between Tang Chen and Hua Wuxin. He was just very panicked. He was afraid that what these two people were hiding was something serious that concerned their lives: "...You haven't woken up yet. Are you hiding something from me?"
Seeing this, Tang Chen guessed that Wang Yanzhou must have noticed something, so she quickly laughed and said, "Oh my, we are good friends, so of course we have some little secrets!"
"I am serious when asking you this question," Wang Yanzhou said, approaching Tang Chen little by little with an indescribable sense of oppression.
Tang Chen couldn't think of anything to divert his attention, so he pointed at the cup that had fallen on the ground and said, "Hey, wow, you dropped the cup! Pick it up quickly, or it might scratch someone!"
"..." Wang Yanzhou said, "I'll just watch you perform quietly first. I'll ask more questions after you finish."
Wang Yanzhou could be considered the person Tang Chen feared the least and the person she feared the most. What she couldn't stand the most was people staring at her without saying a word. That kind of oppression, like being in a higher position, made her feel a little uneasy. "Uh, don't make that expression. Well, I can't accept it."
After Wang Yanzhou withdrew his stern gaze, he asked with a cold smile, "Then tell me honestly, are you and Hua Wuxin hiding any secrets from me?"
At this moment, Tang Chen's brain cells suddenly died in large numbers. As they died, Tang Chen also came up with a specific response plan: "Alas, what secrets could he and I have? If there is one, it must be about A Ruo. Otherwise, what else can we talk about?"
