Chapter 309: You Have Palace Cold

Yu Lei was shocked. Although she had been by Old Hong's side, most of the time Old Hong appeared weak and frail, looking as if a gust of wind could knock him over. How could he be like this now? With just a few steps, he had actually vanished without a trace as if he were flying.

What was this? A martial arts novel? She had followed Old Hong for so long, yet she had never known this old man was so formidable.

"Miss Yu, do you often have cold hands and feet, tend to gain weight easily, suffer from lower abdominal bloating and pain, have blood clots during your period, and experience agonizing pain when your period arrives?" Chen Yu asked.

"How do you know? And what business is this of yours?" Yu Lei demanded angrily.

"Hmm, besides that, you have likely broken up with several boyfriends, right? You are at the age to be talking about marriage, but because you are unable to conceive, those boyfriends left you?" Chen Yu said as he took out a piece of paper and slowly wrote out a prescription.

"Chen Yu, we may have different opinions, but that is no reason for you to humiliate me." Yu Lei's delicate body trembled slightly, and tears welled up in her eyes; Chen Yu's words had struck her where it hurt most.

Although she was a top medical student, she had broken up with several boyfriends, and the reasons were much the same as what Chen Yu had said. As a doctor herself, she had sought out many other doctors, but she had never been able to find the source of her physical problem.

"I didn't mean to humiliate you. Because I am a doctor, I recognize your symptoms as a case of Palace Cold. This prescription can treat your long-unsolved symptoms. If you don't believe me, just pretend I never said anything." Chen Yu handed over the prescription and said indifferently.

"You..." Yu Lei froze. She looked at the prescription in Chen Yu's hand, not knowing whether she should take it or not.

Chen Yu placed the prescription on the table and turned to leave. Yu Lei gritted her teeth, silently picked up the paper from the table, and cast a complex look at the departing Chen Yu.

"Boss, Xu Siying invited the Madam out to go shopping at the mall. I feel like something is wrong." No sooner had Chen Yu left than Datian's call came through.

"Which mall are they at? I'm coming over right now." Chen Yu was startled. He had told Datian to keep an eye on this green tea bitch Xu Siying and to report immediately if there was any unusual activity. Now that she had invited Ye Xinyu out, it definitely meant no good.

"The Guojin Center in the city center. I have people watching them," Datian said.

Hanging up the phone, Chen Yu's expression darkened. He hurried out the door and rushed toward the Guojin Center.

In a maternity and infant store, Xu Siying was enthusiastically picking out various items for Ye Xinyu.

Small clothes, baby bottles, diapers, milk powder—a large pile of baby items had already been selected.

"Xinyu, my colleague said this brand of baby bottle is excellent. It's an import, and the silicone used for the nipple is food-grade, safe and reliable." Xu Siying said, holding up a nipple.

"Thank you, Siying. If it were just me, I really wouldn't know what to pick." Ye Xinyu said happily, "It's so good to have a best friend."

"What are you saying? We've played together since we were little; saying things like that is really being a stranger." Xu Siying smiled.

Suddenly, Ye Xinyu's brows locked, and she let out an "ouch," clutching her belly.

"What's wrong, Xinyu?" Xu Siying hurriedly supported her.

"It's nothing, the little one in my belly is just being restless." Ye Xinyu smiled. The fetus in her womb was already over seven months old, and it was just the right time for kicking.

"Come, let's go rest in the maternity room over here." Xu Siying hurriedly helped her into a maternity room next to the restroom.

The large mall provided a dedicated space for pregnant women to rest, equipped with beds and hot water, and the environment inside was quiet and very thoughtful.

Ye Xinyu leaned back on a soft recliner and rested for a moment.

"Xinyu, are you and Chen Yu still on bad terms?" Xu Siying asked, seemingly casually.

"Still on bad terms. Actually, sometimes when I think about it, I was just being difficult myself." Ye Xinyu said with a touch of self-mockery, "If we divorce one day, it will be because I pushed him away with my own hands. I can't blame anyone else."

"Actually, in the past, I really looked down on Chen Yu. He was poor and a gambler. But I never expected his recent changes to be so great. In the blink of an eye, he has become someone beyond my reach. Sometimes, I am truly a bit jealous of you."

Xu Siying said softly, "Your luck always seems better than mine. When we were in school, the scholarships were yours, and the boys all liked you. By your side, I was always the green leaf, the foil."

"Why are you saying these things? We are good sisters," Ye Xinyu said.

"Good sisters, shouldn't things be shared?" Xu Siying suddenly smiled, "Then if I told you that I want Chen Yu now, would you give him to me?"

"What did you say?" The smile on Ye Xinyu's face instantly froze. She suddenly realized that Xu Siying had other motives regarding Chen Yu.

"I've made myself so clear, do you still need to ask?" Xu Siying sighed slightly and said, "Ye Xinyu, do you know? You don't cherish Chen Yu enough."

"He is very outstanding now, and the women around him are one more beautiful and capable than the next. If you go on like this, you will eventually hand him over to someone else. Instead of handing him over to others, why not let me have the benefit?" Xu Siying smiled.

"He won't like someone like you." Ye Xinyu said coldly, "Siying, don't bring up such things again in the future. If you don't, we can still be good sisters."

"Even if I don't say it, you won't treat me as a good sister in the future anyway. Some words, once spoken, can never be taken back." Xu Siying smiled.

"The reason I do this is because I have my own hardships. There are some things you don't understand. I want to grow old with him, but I can't." Ye Xinyu sighed.

"Then let him to me, fulfill our wishes, okay?" Xu Siying smiled.

"Impossible, he wouldn't like someone like you." Ye Xinyu's expression changed slightly.

"But, we are already together. Look." Xu Siying smiled. She took out her phone and flipped through a few photos. In the photos, she was dressed sexily, with one shoulder exposed, and was hugging Chen Yu.

The photos were taken from a special angle. This woman had gone to Chen Yu's place last time to seduce him just to take these photos; she had a hidden camera in her bag, and even Chen Yu hadn't noticed.

Ye Xinyu's face instantly lost all color. She stared blankly for a long time before squeezing a few words through her teeth: "This is impossible."

"The facts are right before your eyes, why do you refuse to admit it?" Xu Siying said languidly, "I may not be as beautiful as you, but I know better than you what a man needs. Ye Xinyu, I will make him fall completely in love with me."

"Xu Siying, I know this isn't real. You don't need to use these photos to lie to me, and you don't need to lie to yourself." Ye Xinyu's expression gradually turned cold, "A woman like you, even if you stood before him completely naked, he wouldn't even give you a second glance."
