On the third evening, after returning to the villa, Su Yuxin got out of bed for the first time.
Because the yin energy in her body had erupted completely, over the past three days, Su Yuxin could not eat anything and only drank a little water. Not only did she look extremely pale, but her body was also extremely weak. She could not even stand steadily after getting out of bed.
Su Liuli and Su's mother immediately went up to her, supporting Su Yuxin on either side as they walked her to the first-floor hall.
"Phew... Phew..."
The short distance from the second-floor bedroom to the first-floor hall was extremely difficult for Su Yuxin. By the time she sat on the sofa, she was panting heavily, as if she had no strength left in her body, and she leaned weakly against the sofa.
Seeing this, Su's mother's eyes turned red, and she gently patted Su Yuxin's back. Su Liuli felt as if her heart was being squeezed by a large hand, causing her great pain, but she did not know how to comfort Su Yuxin. She could only place her hopes on the divine doctor who was about to arrive.
Shortly after, as Su Yuxin's breathing gradually returned to normal, an elderly man dressed in silk, accompanied by Uncle Fu, walked into the villa.
"Dad!"
"Grandpa!"
Seeing the head of the Su family, Su Hongyuan, Su's mother and Su Liuli both stood up immediately to greet him.
"Gr... Grandpa..."
Su Yuxin tried to struggle to her feet to greet Su Hongyuan, but her body was too weak, and she could not stand up.
"Yuxin, don't get up." Su Hongyuan quickly stopped Su Yuxin's attempt.
"Thank you, Grandpa, for caring so much about Yuxin." Hearing this, Su Yuxin gave up the idea of getting up to greet him.
"Foolish girl, you have done so much for the Su family. It's nothing for Grandpa to come and see you."
Su Hongyuan sighed, his gaze on Su Yuxin filled with a complex mix of self-reproach, unwillingness, and pity. After a moment, he adjusted his emotions and asked, "When will the doctor arrive?"
"An hour ago, Miss Chu called and said she would be here by six o'clock." Su Yuxin answered truthfully.
As Su Yuxin spoke, the sound of a car stopping was heard outside.
Upon hearing the sound, including Su Hongyuan, everyone assumed the divine doctor had arrived. Their faces lit up, and they all turned their gazes toward the entrance of the hall.
However, it was not the divine doctor, but Su Feiyu!
In the presence of everyone, Su Feiyu appeared at the entrance of the hall, looking extremely pleased. In the sunset, it was clear that the corners of his mouth were slightly curled, his smile unhidden, as if he had some great news he could not wait to share.
Indeed, that was the case.
Because he did not believe that the unknown quack could cure Su Yuxin's illness, he had deliberately timed his arrival at the Su family's Villa No. 2 to witness Su Yuxin's fall from hope to despair in a victorious manner!
He wanted to rub salt into Su Yuxin's already wounded heart to vent the resentment he had accumulated over the past two years due to being suppressed by her!
Su Feiyu?
Seeing Su Feiyu, everyone was taken aback.
"Grandpa."
Compared to everyone else, Su Feiyu was even more surprised. After his initial shock, he immediately greeted Su Hongyuan, and then, seeing that Su Hongyuan did not respond, he feigned concern and asked Su Yuxin, "Sister Yuxin, how is your health?"
"Thank you, Cousin Feiyu, for your concern. I'm feeling a bit better." Although Su Yuxin knew Su Feiyu was putting on an act, she did not want to expose him in front of Su Hongyuan.
"Sister Yuxin, I heard a divine doctor is coming to treat you. I'm sure he can cure your illness." Su Feiyu continued his act.
"Hmph!"
Su Liuli had never had a good impression of Su Feiyu. Seeing his excited look just now and now his feigned concern, she was very angry. However, because Su Hongyuan was present, she did not dare to react, only letting out a cold snort.
Su Feiyu pretended not to hear Su Liuli's snort and secretly glanced at Su Hongyuan. Seeing that Su Hongyuan's expression was unchanged, he hesitated for a moment and continued his act, "Grandpa, do you know when the divine doctor will arrive?"
"Master Feiyu, the divine doctor will be here soon."
Seeing the strange atmosphere, Uncle Fu quickly intervened to smooth things over. In his heart, he knew that although Su Feiyu had hidden his true feelings well, he could not deceive Su Hongyuan.
Understanding this, he could not help but sigh inwardly. In his view, if Su Yuxin were a daughter and seriously ill, the position of the head of the Su family would never fall to Su Feiyu.
However... there are no "ifs" in this world.
In his view, Su Yuxin would be lucky to survive!
As if to confirm Uncle Fu's suspicions, after witnessing Su Feiyu's act, Su Hongyuan's expression turned somewhat grim, and his gaze on Su Feiyu became very sharp.
Because of his guilty conscience, Su Feiyu was frightened by Su Hongyuan's sharp gaze and did not dare to continue his act. Instead, he walked to the side like a well-behaved child in kindergarten and waited with Su Hongyuan and the others for the divine doctor's arrival.
All of this only made his resentment rise, and he sneered inwardly: The old man seems very concerned about the life and death of that bitch Su Yuxin? But what's the point? Can he save her from the hands of the King of Hell?
At the same time.
Wearing a long robe and carrying a black canvas bag, Ye Fan walked on the road in the Jiuxi Rose Garden wealthy residential area.
In the sunset, his strange attire and the old canvas bag in his hand made him stand out from the surroundings. Those who saw him from a distance were filled with doubt: How could the security guards let such a person in?
However, Ye Fan ignored the gazes of the people and followed the directions on the sign at the entrance, walking straight to the Su family's Villa No. 2.
At 5:55 PM, Ye Fan arrived at the Su family's Villa No. 2.
"Hello, this is a private villa. May I ask who you are looking for?"
At the entrance of the villa, a Su family bodyguard blocked Ye Fan's path. Although his words were polite, he looked at Ye Fan with a wary gaze.
Although he knew that a divine doctor was coming to treat the young miss in the afternoon, he did not believe that the person in front of him was the divine doctor who had even moved the old master of the Su family!
On one hand, Ye Fan's appearance was quite that of a high-level expert, but his long robe was somewhat worn, and the canvas bag in his hand was something even migrant workers would not want.
More importantly, Ye Fan was too young!
Too young!
In the hospital, a doctor of Ye Fan's age would probably still be an intern.
"Hello, my name is Ye Fan. I have been entrusted to come and treat Miss Su Yuxin."
As the Su family bodyguard made his judgment, Ye Fan saw his expression clearly but did not mind, responding calmly.
"You... You are treating the young miss?!"
Hearing Ye Fan's words, the Su family bodyguard's expression froze, his face filled with shock. Then... he suddenly remembered that the divine doctor who was supposed to treat the young miss was indeed surnamed Ye. His face instantly turned to one of panic, and he stammered, "S... Sorry, Divine Doctor Ye, I failed to recognize you. Please don't mind."
After speaking, the Su family bodyguard secretly glanced at Ye Fan, seeing that he was not angry, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Like a servant in ancient times meeting his master, he bowed respectfully and said, "Divine Doctor Ye, my master and the young miss are waiting for you in the hall. Please follow me."
"Alright."
Ye Fan nodded slightly and followed the Su family bodyguard into the villa courtyard, walking straight toward the main building.
