wards Xiao Yu.Xiao Yu did not speak; he kept a cold expression and stared at the young man kicking him, without dodging."Xiao Yu, be careful!""Xiao Yu Xiao Yu!"Lu Jianhong and Xiao Yu's relatives, Yun...Chapter 68: Yunxi's Intuition (Requesting Recommendations and Collections)
Xiao Yu accompanied Yunxi to finish her meal, after which Yunxi took her leave with her colleagues. Xiao Yu didn't insist; usually, after a match-making session at this place, the two parties would separate to give each other some time to consider their feelings further. Then, the matchmaker would call both sides to ask for their opinions; if either side was unwilling to proceed, they'd inform the other party accordingly. If there were mutual intentions to pursue a relationship, the matchmaker would advise them to take things forward.
Just as Xiao Yu had just finished his meal and was leisurely walking down the pedestrian street, he received a call from his mother: "Yu, how is it Is this girl to your liking"
"Hmm, it's alright. Let's give it a try and see." After some contemplation, Xiao Yu replied. At that moment of connecting the phone call, he sensed several voices on his mother’s end rapidly becoming softer, as though they were straining to listen in on his conversation with his mother.
"How is it How is it I told you, with Aunt Zhu handling this match-making session, you have nothing to worry about!" Hearing Xiao Yu's response, an abrupt voice of a middle-aged woman sounded through the phone.
“Hello... Hello...” A burst of laughter followed from the other end of the line. Despite calling out to his mother several times, he received no reply; disappointedly, Xiao Yu hung up the call.
The Ancient City Hotel was located near the Ancient City People's Hospital. Wan Hongguang had arranged for Xiao Yu to stay in a suite on the top floor of the Ancient City Hotel. This used to be Wan Hongguang’s residence when he first arrived, and it served as the Special Secretary's dedicated room. Although the Ancient City Hotel barely met the standards of a four-star hotel, Xiao Yu found this suite more luxurious than those presidential suites in five-star hotels.
The next morning, Xiao Yu went to the top floor of the People's Hospital but was stopped by several security guards as soon as he entered. He had no choice but to call Wan Hongguang for help. At that moment, Wang Zi stepped out from an elevator and seeing Xiao Yu being obstructed, chuckled lightly and walked past him with a smug expression, thinking, ‘No matter how you dress up the country bumpkin, he’ll still be a country bumpkin.’
Soon after, Li Chuan, Wan Hongguang's secretary, approached briskly. Seeing Xiao Yu, he waved his hand and said, "Doctor Xiao, please hurry in! Secretary Wan has been waiting for you."
Xiao Yu nodded and followed Li Chuan into the ward where the sauna was already heated up with charcoal.
"Little Brother Xiao, you're here" Just as Xiao Yu entered the living room, Wan Hongguang and Song Hushan walked out from the inner ward.
"Senior Brother Wan, Senior Brother Song!" Xiao Yu nodded at them.
Xiao Yu followed them into the inner ward. Inside the makeshift sauna, charcoal was already burning. Wan Hongguang handed a packet of herbs to Xiao Yu.
Holding the herbs, Xiao Yu smelled each one carefully and confirmed that there were no issues before putting them in the clay pot filled with water and letting it simmer.
"Xu, can Jiayi's illness really be cured in a month" After Xiao Yu left yesterday, Wan Hongguang told Song Hualing and Zhou Ruoying about what Xiao Xu said; that he could cure Wan Jia Yi within the slowest timeframe of one month. This excited them greatly, as they had been watching Wan Jia Yi lying on her bed for half a year without any signs of life or death, causing their entire family to suffer.
"There shouldn't be too many problems." Xiao Yu said after looking at Wan Jia Yi's condition.
Xiao Yu followed the same steps as yesterday and started acupuncture treatment on Wan Jia Yi. After half an hour, the golden needles on Wan Jia Yi’s head began to tremble lightly. This time, Xiao Yu did not immediately remove the needles.
Seeing that Xiao Yu did not move and did not remove the needles like he did yesterday, Song Hualing was afraid that Xiao Yu might forget and wanted to remind him, but then thought better of it. With such high medical skills, there must be a reason for Xiao Yu's actions.
Indeed, although the golden needles on Wan Jia Yi’s head were still trembling slightly, they no longer made any 'buzzing' sound. It took about one minute before Xiao Yu got up to remove the gold needles from Wan Jia Yi’s head.
This was because there was a blockage of blood and Qi in Wan Jia Yi's head, and Xiao Yu’s acupuncture mainly aimed at unblocking the blocked meridians in her brain. Yesterday being the first day of treatment, once the slightly blocked meridians were opened up, with the blood and Qi flowing through the acupoints, due to the narrowness of the meridians and the relatively thicker nature of the blood and Qi, the golden needles would tremble and make noise continuously. Today was different because yesterday had already unblocked a bit, so when the blood and Qi flowed through the brain’s meridians today, it wasn’t as swift as before; therefore, Xiao Yu waited for an additional minute to let the meridians adapt to the movement of the blood and Qi.
After threading the needles, Xiao Yu felt a bit tired. Song Hushan then sent Xiao Yu back to his hotel.
About two weeks later, when Xiao Yu was treating Wan Jiayi with acupuncture again, the gold needles only trembled slightly, indicating that her meridians had been mostly unblocked. Once the gold needles stopped trembling completely, it would mean that her meridians were fully unblocked. After removing the needles, Xiao Yu took Wan Jiayi's pulse and found that due to the steam baths from medicinal herbs, the blood clots on her body and head were gradually dissipating. Everything was progressing positively.
During these two weeks, whenever Xiao Yu had free time, he would call Yunxi for a chat or go watch a movie together. Their relationship was beginning to develop.
This day, as soon as Xiao Yu finished threading the needles, his phone rang. He saw that it was Yunxi calling and felt quite puzzled because usually, it was him who initiated calls when they weren't busy or on a date. This was the first time she had called him.
"Hello, Yunxi" Xiao Yu answered promptly.
"Um, Xiao Yu, do you have time today at noon" Yunxi's soft voice came through the phone. Even though they were familiar with each other by now, Yunxi still sounded a bit shy when speaking.
"Sure! What is it" Xiao Yu wondered internally what this girl could possibly want.
"Well... my classmate is getting married today and everyone will be bringing their boyfriends..." Yunxi's voice was barely audible over the phone.
Xiao Yu could picture Yunxi holding the phone, head lowered, face slightly red. Imagining her appearance made Xiao Yu feel a faint sense of satisfaction in his heart.
"Where are you going" Xiao Yu asked with a slight smile playing on his lips.
"Eleven o'clock at the Ancient City Hotel, I'll be waiting for you at the door!" Yunxi said before hanging up. After Yunxi hung up the call, she patted her chest. Today morning, she suddenly received a phone call from her class leader, who informed her that their classmate Luo Jiao was getting married and asked her to attend the wedding with her boyfriend.
Although there were people in her workplace pursuing her, those individuals' intentions were clearly possessive. Only Xiao Yu's gaze was exceptionally clear when Yunxi met him; thus, after meeting Xiao Yu, her mother happened to be talking on the phone with Erzhu Mama (the mother of a person named Erzhu).
When Yunxi's mother saw her daughter return home, she asked about her impression of today’s encounter. Feeling embarrassed, Yunxi nodded in approval.
Seeing that Yunxi had acknowledged the meeting with Xiao Yu positively, her mother was delighted and told Erzhu Mama over the phone: "Auntie Erzhu, what does the man think"
A hearty laugh came through from Erzhu Mama on the other end of the line: "I'm right at his doorstep now. The man just called back saying he has no objections."
"Good... good... That's great! Our Yunxi doesn't have any issues either!" Yunxi’s mother said joyfully.
Yunxi’s mother had indeed put a lot of effort into finding her a suitable match. After graduating from university, she introduced Yunxi to several potential partners, all of whom were declined by Yunxi. This time around, the relatives back home arranged for an introduction between Yunxi and someone named Xiao Yu, who runs a TCM clinic in their hometown city. When Yunxi’s mother mentioned this arrangement, Yunxi initially didn’t want to participate but was curious about Xiao Yu since he is reportedly a doctor.
In fact, Yunxi had exceptionally strong intuition from childhood; she could sense whether someone harbored good or ill intent toward her. This made it difficult for others to get close to her despite her attractiveness. That's why at the age of 26, Yunxi still didn’t have a boyfriend.
Surprisingly, when meeting Xiao Yu, she did not feel repulsed but rather felt very comfortable. As they continued to meet each other, she never once experienced that sense of revulsion. Hence, when her class leader asked her to bring along her boyfriend to the wedding, Yunxi immediately called Xiao Yu.s there; they all had terrifying killing intents, yet the ones on Xiao Yu were incomparable in comparison.Note that the slaughter caused by those people in Huaxia, as a martial arts master, he is natu...
