Chapter 551 The Severity Of Her Condition

“Wow! You’re really my idol! You’re cute even when you scold me!” Pei Huan, Li Heng, and Bao were rendered speechless. This woman must have something wrong with her brain.

Pei Huan was the first one to snap back to her senses. She cleared her throat and said, “Uh… The food is ready. I guess everyone’s already starving. Let’s dig in!”

Pei Huan ordered Aunt Zhang to keep the chessboard. Meanwhile, Song Zhe walked down the stairs. “Mr. Li, if there’s nothing else, I’m leaving.”

“Wait a minute!” Pei Huan stopped him. “Let’s eat together.” Song Zhe was surprised to hear that. He looked at Pei Huan before glancing at Li Heng. “I don’t think that’s appropriate, Madam!”

“Just sit down!” Li Heng ordered. Since Li Heng had spoken up, Song Zhe had no choice but to join them. Hearing that, Aunt Zhang immediately went to prepare another set of cutlery. Song Zhe also sat down at the dining table.

“Wow! The food is so tasty!” Huo Ling had the habit of exclaiming about seemingly everything. Initially, everyone felt strange when they saw her acting that way, but since she kept doing the same thing, they got used to it soon.

Perhaps Huo Ling was really starving. She finished five bowls of rice in one go and still said that she wanted another bowl. Song Zhe, who was seated beside her, stared at her with wide eyes. “Ms. Huo, you must’ve been starving for days.”

“No.” Huo Ling stared at him as if she was talking to an idiot. “Mr. Song, does this rice belong to your family?”

“No.” “Then, why are you giving so many comments?” Huo Ling could not help but roll her eyes. After finishing another bowl of rice, she put down her cutlery and burped satisfyingly. “Everything tastes amazing! Great Mr. Li, I want to stay in your house frequently!”

Li Heng could not stop himself from glaring at her coldly. Nevertheless, to Huo Ling, everything he did was attractive, so she did not even take his glare seriously.

She thought of playing with Bao after finishing her food. However, Bao found her annoying and ignored her. Unfortunately, Huo Ling had made up her mind to follow him everywhere he went, so she started chasing him around the living room.

Pei Huan served Li Heng a cup of hot tea. “Have some tea.”

Li Heng nodded. “I’m going to the hospital in a while.”

“To meet my brother?”

Li Heng nodded. “I want to pay Shi Nuan a visit too.”

“All right. I’ll go with you, then. We can also tell them we’ve found Huo Ling.”

“Great Mr. Li, where are you guys going? I want to go too!” said Huo Ling, leaning over suddenly and scaring Pei Huan.

Li Heng glared at her furiously. “Stay away from her!”

Scratching her head, Huo Ling stuck her tongue out mischievously. A moment later, she put on a solemn expression. “Great Mr. Li, are Pei Huan and Bao the patients you asked my brother to treat?”

As soon as Huo Ling finished her sentence, Li Heng and Pei Huan stopped and stared at her.

Huo Ling looked into Li Heng’s eyes. For a moment, she felt that his gaze was terrifying. Pei Huan quickly grabbed Li Heng’s hand to stop him. “Heng, don’t scare her.” Immediately, she turned to look at Huo Ling, “Ms. Huo, why would you think that Bao and I are the patients?”

Huo Ling chuckled as she took a seat. “Although you look healthy, your face is a little pale. Besides, there are black spots behind your ears. You probably didn’t even notice them yourself, did you? Bao has some behind his ears too. I guess that’s not a coincidence. However, the spots behind Bao’s ears are smaller compared to yours.”

Upon hearing that, Li Heng checked Pei Huan’s ears. As expected, he saw a dark patch at the back of her ears. Instead of looking like specks of dirt, they looked more like shadows.

Then, he walked over to Bao to check his ears. Sure enough, he saw similar black patches behind them. “Ms. Huo, you’re very observant!”

“Haha!” Huo Ling scratched her head awkwardly. “Actually, I’m merely guessing. I don’t exactly know what is going on too, but are your wife and child not who the patients you meant, Great Mr. Li?”

Li Heng nodded in response. “Indeed, they’re the ones I asked your brother to treat. But now, I have something more serious I want you to take a look at, Ms. Huo.”

Having that said, he brought Pei Huan and Huo Ling along to the hospital. Fu Chengyan and Su Shaoqing already knew that they were coming. Hence, they waited for their arrival patiently in the hospital.

After they got out of the car, Li Heng carried Bao in his arms while Pei Huan followed behind them. Huo Ling spoke excitedly as she walked behind them. “Great Mr. Li, you’re so handsome!”

Pei Huan was a little helpless. “Ms. Huo, a-are you always that straightforward?”

Huo Ling chuckled, “You’re gorgeous too, Goddess!”

Pei Huan could not help but shake her head. “You can just call us Huan and Heng.”

“How can I address you guys like that? Those names can’t convey how impressive my idols are!” Huo Ling laughed. Her eyes were gleaming like twinkling stars, so bright that one might find it hard to stop looking at them.

Pei Huan lifted a brow. “Suit yourself, then!”

Huo Ling hugged Pei Huan’s arm, giggling. “Goddess, how did you know Great Mr. Li? Are you really not going to consider letting me be Bao’s godmother?”

Huo Ling could not stop chattering along the way. Pei Huan did not think that she was noisy. This young lady is so energetic. She didn’t even stop talking for a second along the way.

Meanwhile, Su Shaoqing was waiting at the entrance. As soon as he saw Li Heng walking over with Bao in his arms, he approached them with a bright smile. “Hello, Bao! Come. Let me carry you!”

Bao glanced at Su Shaoqing disdainfully. Although he was reluctant, he spread his arms obediently.

Su Shaoqing noticed the disdain in Bao’s eyes, and he felt devastated as he carried Bao. “Where is the one from the Huo family? I thought she’s here?”

He turned around and scanned his surroundings. Immediately, he saw a young lady walking over with her arm hooked around Pei Huan’s. He did not know what they were talking about, but it was evident that the young lady looked excited. Her face was beaming with an exuberant look, indirectly spreading positive energy to the people around her.

Right then, Pei Huan walked over to him too. The moment her gaze fell upon Su Shaoqing, she smiled and nodded. “Master Su!”

“May I know who this is?” Su Shaoqing shifted his eyes onto Huo Ling. Similarly, Huo Ling started to size him up. A hint of arrogance and rebellion flashed across her eyes. “Goddess, who is this guy?”

Su Shaoqing twitched his lips. “Little brat, I’m your-” Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

“Shaoqing, this is Huo Shenxing’s sister, Huo Ling!” Li Heng interrupted.

Su Shaoqing was stunned. Scrutinizing Huo Ling, he said, “You can’t be serious!”

Li Heng did not bother to pay him any more attention. He pushed the door open and said, “Let’s go in, Ms. Huo!”

Huo Ling let out a few chuckles. As soon as she stepped inside the ward, she screamed, “Oh my god! What a handsome man!”

Her gaze fell upon Fu Chengyan. Then, she quickly ran over to him. “Hello, handsome! I’m Huo Ling.”

Fu Chengyan narrowed his eyes, exuding a cold, terrifying vibe. He stared at the woman running toward him with an ice-cold gaze.

It seemed like Huo Ling had sensed the coldness in his eyes as well. She could not help but tremble in response. Then her gaze fell on the woman who was lying on the hospital bed.

Shi Nuan was holding a book in her hands. The moment she saw Huo Ling, she was influenced by her cheerful vibe and flashed a smile at Huo Ling.

Huo Ling’s eyes lit up. “Oh, my! Great Mr. Li, everyone around you is so good-looking! As a person who’s obsessed with looks, I can now die without regrets!”

Shi Nuan looked at Fu Chengyan, feeling speechless. Then, she shifted her eyes to the people walking into the ward. “Li Heng and Huan are here too!”

She smiled as she put down her book.

Pei Huan approached her swiftly. “Nuan, this is Huo Ling. She’s the miracle doctor Heng found.”

In fact, Pei Huan had witnessed how skillful Huo Ling was before coming to the hospital. As soon as Huo Ling pierced two acupuncture needles on Pei Huan’s body, the black patches behind Pei Huan’s ears faded. Moreover, Pei Huan also felt better instantly.

Although Huo Ling was young, she had gained her reputation through her own capability.

Miracle doctor?

Fu Chengyan met Li Heng’s gaze. Li Heng nodded in response. “She’s Huo Shenxing’s sister!”

Huo Ling shifted her attention to Shi Nuan. With a solemn expression, she stared at Shi Nuan while circling her twice. Not long after, she pouted. “That’s strange. All of you have viruses in your bodies, but I wonder why your condition is less severe compared to theirs.”

“Less severe?” Shi Nuan did not understand what Huo Ling was saying. “Didn’t we get infected with the same type of virus?”

“I’m not too sure about this. May I check your pulse?”

Shi Nuan nodded. The next moment, Huo Ling walked over to sit on the stool beside her. She then put her fingers on Shi Nuan’s wrist to check her pulse. Huo Ling looked very much like a miracle doctor when she calmed down and treated a patient.

Initially, there was a relaxed look on her face. A moment later, she furrowed her brows and sized Shi Nuan up. “Would you mind if I look at the back of your ears?”

Shi Nuan nodded as she turned her head around to show Huo Ling her ears. In an instant, Huo Ling came to a realization. “The person who injected the drug into your body showed you mercy, didn’t they?”

“What do you mean?”

Although Fu Chengyan knew nothing about medicine, he could understand what Huo Ling said. “Are you saying the virus in my wife’s body isn’t serious?”

Huo Ling nodded. “My goddess’ condition is the most serious one among all of you.” After a brief pause, she added, “I mean, Huan!” However, no one understood what she was saying, so she pointed at Pei Huan and explained, “She’s been infected with the poison for the longest time among the three of you. Thus, the virus has invaded many parts of her body. That’s why her treatment is the most complicated. As for this young lady and Bao, their conditions are not severe. For now, I’ll suppress the virus in your body with my needles first. But then, I’m not very confident that I can cure you completely.”

After all, Huo Ling was young, so she had rarely encountered complicated diseases like that. Moreover, she had heard before that that type of virus was dangerous. Even if Huo Shenxing was here, he might not be able to treat it too.

“Okay!” Initially, Fu Chengyan did not believe in what Huo Ling said. However, he decided to place his faith in her upon seeing how serious she was just now. After all, he could not guarantee that he could find an antidote in time either.

In an instant, Huo Ling took out a set of silver needles from her backpack. After signaling Shi Nuan to calm down, she took out a needle and poke it into Shi Nuan’s purlicue.

“Will the virus affect my baby?” Enduring the pain, Shi Nuan lifted her head to look at Huo Ling. Huo Ling looked exceptionally focused when she was treating a patient.

Huo Ling had inserted two silver needles into Shi Nuan’s purlicue. Upon hearing Shi Nuan’s question, she responded, “To be honest with you, it’ll definitely affect the baby to a certain extent. Luckily, you haven’t been infected for too long. Also, they’ve only injected a small amount of the virus into your body, so your baby should be fine for now. I’ve checked your pulses just now. Your baby is doing great. But then, if you’re still worried, I’ll give you some medicine to prevent miscarriage. Everything will be fine as long as you take the medicine according to my prescription.”
