Dragon Boat Translation      Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Song Yin refused to return to school due to the embarrassment she had suffered there. She locked herself in her room and rejected all attempts to persuade her to go out.

Song Ting assumed that the incident in the alley had frightened her, so he granted her leave and allowed her to recover at home.

Besides, he had to investigate the events of that day, leaving him with little time to tend to Song Yin’s needs.

Consequently, Song Yin believed that the ordeal was behind her and began focusing on her future.

Meng Yu had always impressed upon her that marriage was of paramount importance for a woman. As she grew older, her thoughts became consumed with the idea of selecting a wealthy and influential husband.

Previously, Fu Nian had been her top choice, but her attention had now shifted to the two brothers from the Gu Family.

Despite the Fu family’s wealth and power, they paled in comparison to the Gu Family.

Song Yin couldn’t forget the sight of Gu Chen at the banquet. He had been a guest, but he exuded the aura of a host. His nobility was unmatched.

She daydreamed about marrying him, which would elevate her to the woman of the house of the Gu Family, making her impervious to anyone’s disdain.

Song Fan kept indulging in these fantasies and called out Gu Chen’s name.

At that moment, Gu Chen was suddenly struck with a headache. He calmly

advised Gu Zhuo, “Gu Zhuo, you should head back now. Otherwise, Second Uncle will surely search everywhere for you, and you can’t simply say you’re with me.”

Gu Zhuo also realized the wisdom in his words. He turned to Song Fan and said, “Sister, I’ll head back for now. I’ll come and visit you another day.”

After saying that, Gu Zhuo quickly left. If Gu Hai knew he was here, he would nag. He didn’t want to hear those words that would grate on his ears.

Gu Chen’s face contorted in pain as he watched Gu Zhuo’s figure disappear from the doorway.

It had already been incredibly difficult for him to endure the pain until now. Just moments ago, he had been holding on by a thread. He was determined not to let Gu Zhuo discover his illness.

While he trusted that Gu Zhuo wouldn’t intentionally harm him, he believed that the fewer people who knew about his condition, the better. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be long before his second uncle found out.

Upon witnessing Gu Chen’s suffering, Song Fan realized that the poison was taking its toll on him. She had already exhausted her supply of pills. All she could do was urgently call out, “Su Yang! Su Yang!”

Su Yang, who had been on guard outside, swiftly pushed open the door and entered. After seeing Gu Chen’s condition, he retrieved a small medicine bottle and poured out two pills. He handed them to him, saying, “Young Master, you’ll feel better after taking these.”

Gu Chen didn’t even have time to drink water; he simply swallowed the pills. Despite his usual composure, his current condition was evident, clearly revealing the unbearable pain he was experiencing.

The pills had a swift effect, calming Gu Chen down within minutes. However, something seemed off in his gaze; his eyes lacked focus.

Xia Meng placed her hand on his wrist to feel his pulse and explained, “The effect of this pill is too potent. It suppresses both the pain and his emotions simultaneously. If he continues taking it for an extended period, it could adversely affect his brain.”

Su Yang wore a pained expression as he replied, “We all understand the situation, but there’s no other option. Young Master won’t be able to survive if he doesn’t take the pills. The Gu Family needs him now.”

Song Fan was well aware of Gu Chen’s predicament, but she also knew that continuing to rely solely on these pills was a precarious situation. The pills could only temporarily alleviate the pain and were incapable of curing the underlying illness. Sooner or later, the poison would act up again, potentially leading to dire consequences.

“Do you have an acupuncture set?” Song Fan inquired.

Su Yang nodded, responding, “Yes, we have a complete collection of Chinese and Western medical tools.”

Together, they carefully moved Gu Chen to the bed. Song Fan then positioned herself on a chair, waiting for Su Yang to get the acupuncture needles. She instructed, “Undress him.”

Su Yang’s eyes widened, hesitating as he said, “Isn’t that a bit… inappropriate?” Song Fan maintained her composure and explained, “There’s nothing inappropriate about it. I can’t perform acupuncture through his clothes.”

Upon realizing he had over-thought the situation, Su Yang quickly removed Gu Chen’s shirt.

Without hesitation, Song Fan began inserting the needles. In no time, Gu Chen resembled a hedgehog, making Su Yang wonder if his Young Master was still alive.

Just as she was about to insert the final needle, Gu Chen spoke, “Song Fan, you’ve saved me once more.”

Song Fan met his gaze and responded calmly, “Then remember your promise and help me find what I’m looking for.”

Gu Chen didn’t inquire about her request. Instead, he reached out and gripped Song Fan’s wrist, saying, “I need a physician to accompany me. I want you to stay by my side.”

Uninterested, Song Fan swiftly withdrew her hand and moved to remove the needles, stating, “I’m not interested. I’ll leave once the needles are out.”

Gu Chen urgently interjected, “As long as you’re willing to stay, I’m willing to agree to any conditions of yours.”

There was an unmistakable sense of urgency in his tone. He genuinely desired Song Fan’s presence and assistance..
