Chapter 2707

~8 min read 1,403 words

The moment Claudia pushed open the dormitory door, Ye Chen saw Lin Wan'er, whose face was a bit pale, sitting on the chair in front of the desk with her brows tightly locked.

Seeing Ye Chen enter, she hurriedly stood up and said with a bit of awkwardness and weakness: "Mr. Ye, I'm really sorry to trouble you to come over so late..."

Ye Chen looked at Lin Wan'er and said with a smile: "Miss Lin, don't be so polite. You are Claudia's roommate, it's only right for me to come over."

Claudia hurriedly said: "Brother Ye Chen, you don't need to call Xiao Wan 'Miss Lin' so politely, just call her Xiao Wan like me."

As she spoke, she said to Lin Wan'er: "Xiao Wan, Brother Ye Chen is ten years older than me, and about eleven years older than you. Why don't you call him Brother Ye Chen like me."

Lin Wan'er was startled, hesitated for a moment, and said to Ye Chen cautiously: "Brother Ye Chen..."

Seeing this, Ye Chen smiled readily: "Since you call me brother, then I won't be polite with you. Xiao Wan, Claudia said you have a severe headache, what's going on? Can you tell me?"

Hearing this, Lin Wan'er couldn't help but slander in her heart: "Ye Chen, you bad person, my headache is so severe all because of you, yet you pretend to be fine and ask me what's going on. Don't you have any idea in your heart?"

Although she felt aggrieved, Lin Wan'er didn't dare to let Ye Chen see any clues on her face, so she supported her temple with one hand and said with a sorrowful face: "I don't know what's going on. I was fine, but on the day I came to school to report, I started to have a headache for no reason. And this kind of headache is really fatal. It feels like countless needles have been stuck into my brain, and these needles are all connected on a line, and that line is pulling back and forth with my pulse, it hurts so much it's about to explode..."

As she spoke, Lin Wan'er added: "And I've taken a lot of painkillers in the past two days, but they basically have no effect. When I went home, I even fainted at home..."

Ye Chen was shocked. He didn't expect that his last psychological suggestion, which was a bit too heavy, would bring such serious sequelae to Lin Wan'er.

And Lin Wan'er was also secretly calculating in her heart: "If I don't say it, Ye Chen will probably never know how painful I was tortured by him. I hope his conscience will also suffer because of this!"

At this time, Ye Chen couldn't help but feel guilty. Thinking of a seventeen-year-old girl, it was enough that she almost died in the hands of the Poqing Society. She hid in Huaxia to go to college, and had to be tortured by his Qi. It was really not easy.

So, he didn't delay much and said to Lin Wan'er: "Xiao Wan, let me take your pulse first."

"Good..." Lin Wan'er agreed, but when she thought that taking a pulse would inevitably involve physical contact, she couldn't help but feel a little shy, so she asked him stammeringly: "Brother Ye Chen... how... how do I take a pulse?"

Ye Chen didn't think much, directly moved another chair, sat in front of Lin Wan'er, patted his right leg, and said: "Come, put your right hand on my leg."

"Ah?" Lin Wan'er asked subconsciously: "Shouldn't the pulse be taken by putting the hand on the table..."

Ye Chen pointed to the desk behind her and said: "The table is behind you, it's not convenient. It's okay, I don't have so many requirements for taking a pulse. You let me touch it, and I'll roughly know what's going on."

"Alright..." Lin Wan'er knew she couldn't refuse, so she could only carefully stretch out her hand and nervously put it on Ye Chen's leg.

She had never had such intimate contact with any male since she was a child, so as soon as the back of her hand touched Ye Chen's thigh, her heartbeat accelerated instantly, and her cheeks soon flushed.

Ye Chen didn't care about these.

He knew in his heart that taking Lin Wan'er's pulse was basically meaningless.

Her headache was not because of illness, but because she was hurt by his Qi. The best treatment was to directly input some Qi to repair the damage to her brain.

But Ye Chen thought that this Lin Wan'er had an extraordinary background. She could have that pit-father ring, which proved that even if she didn't master Qi, she must know what Qi was.

In other words, she was equal to someone who grew up by the sea and had seen and eaten everything. If he pretended to be a fan, she would be able to see it at a glance.

Moreover, Ye Chen now speculated that Lin Wan'er probably didn't remember him. If he directly inputted Qi into her body, wouldn't he be exposing himself?

So, Ye Chen's method was to pretend to take her pulse, and then give her half a Sanxue Heart-Saving Pill. Anyway, this thing was not worth much to him.

Moreover, Ye Chen wasn't worried that the Sanxue Heart-Saving Pill would expose him. After all, his title as Master Ye was famous in Jin Ling. Claudia must have told Lin Wan'er about it. It was reasonable for Master Ye to take out a pill that could cure all diseases.

As for why he wanted to take half instead of one, it was to let Lin Wan'er have a preliminary understanding that although this thing was good, he didn't have much, so he had to be careful.

So, he gently placed his fingers on the pulse gate of Lin Wan'er's wrist, closed his eyes and felt it for a while, and then said: "Xiao Wan, judging from your pulse, you should have a migraine caused by acclimatization and overwork. You said your headache started on the day you reported, it's probably because you were a bit tired that day."

Lin Wan'er knew Ye Chen was talking nonsense as soon as she heard it, so she pretended to be suspicious and said: "But... Brother Ye Chen... to tell you the truth, I have been in Jin Ling for a long time... if it was really acclimatization, it shouldn't have waited until now..."

As she spoke, Lin Wan'er added: "And, on the day I reported, I wasn't tired at all. Grandpa's butler sent me over, accompanied me to handle various procedures along the way, and I just made the bed in the dormitory myself. It shouldn't have caused a headache that won't stop..."

Ye Chen knew that Lin Wan'er's questioning was right, because she didn't remember the psychological suggestion he gave her that day, so she definitely couldn't understand why she suddenly had a migraine.

However, since Ye Chen came to see her, he naturally had to say something to interfere with her line of sight, and also pave the way for himself later.

So he said: "Sometimes acclimatization doesn't show up immediately, but is a process of internal accumulation. When it stores enough energy, it will explode selectively. Sometimes it will choose to explode in the mouth, which will cause sores; sometimes it will choose to explode in the intestines and digestive system, which will cause long-term diarrhea or constipation; sometimes it will explode on the skin surface, making people get a lot of urticaria, itchy and unbearable. In short, acclimatization is not as simple as you think."

As he spoke, Ye Chen added: "You overseas Chinese who have lived abroad for many years may lack understanding of our traditional Chinese medicine. What Chinese medicine is best at is peeling the cocoon, exploring its true essence from the appearance, and then eliminating the knot from the root."

Claudia was surprised and sighed: "It sounds like it's really profound..."

What Lin Wan'er thought in her heart was: "Fool... just keep fooling!"

Ye Chen felt that he had paved the way enough, so he waved his hand casually and said: "It's normal for you young girls not to understand Chinese medicine, but it doesn't matter. I have some spiritual medicine here. Xiao Wan's situation, as long as she eats it, it can be cured!"
