“Grandpa, Second Uncle, why aren’t you asleep yet? Didn’t I tell you to sleep first and not stay up to wait?”
Seeing the worry in Nuannuan’s eyes, Old Master and Second Uncle smiled. “It doesn’t make much of a difference staying up for a short while. After all, he’s your big brother. How is he? Is he okay?”
“Yes, I’ll just give him some treatment here. He hates going to the hospital. Grandpa, he’s asleep anyway, so he won’t be able to see you two. You and Second Uncle should go and rest first.”
As they spoke, the guards had already carried Feng Shengxuan out of the car.
The moment Old Master Chi saw the sleeping Feng Shengxuan, his eyes narrowed.
They had long arranged Feng Shengxuan’s room for him. He would be staying in one of the guest rooms.
The master bedroom that Nuannuan and Chi Yang were staying in was located on the southeast corner of the third floor, while Feng Shengxuan’s bedroom was on the northwest corner of the second floor.
Chi Yang was the one who made this arrangement. To put it nicely, he claimed that the room on the second floor’s northwest corner had the same layout as their master bedroom on the third floor. Since it was the largest room, the guest deserved the best treatment when he was here.
Thus, Feng Shengxuan was sent to the furthest room on the second floor.
Knowing Feng Shengxuan’s habits, Nuannuan got the servants to change Feng Shengxuan’s clothes and wipe down his body. After everything was done, she started prepping herself to treat Feng Shengxuan with acupuncture.
However, when she was about to enter Feng Shengxuan’s bedroom, she saw her grandfather walking over.
“Grandpa, why aren’t you asleep yet?”
Grandpa smiled gently and said, “I can’t really sleep after staying up past a certain point in time. I thought that you might be busy here, so I’m here to see if you need my help.”
Nuannuan smiled and said, “There’s nothing much. I’m just going to perform acupuncture on him, and then I’ll be off to bed too.”
Nuannuan was prepared to enter the room as they spoke. Old Master Chi saw that she was holding a large plate with many small fire cans on it, so he quickly opened the door for her.
Behind the door, Feng Shengxuan lay on the bed with his eyes closed and a pallid face—he looked terminally ill.
After setting down her things, Nuannuan looked at Old Master Chi. She blinked and asked, “Grandpa, do you want to see me perform acupuncture?”
Old Master Chi asked tentatively, “Can I?”
“Of course you can, but it might take an hour or so. You should go and rest whenever you feel tired.”
“Sure, sure, sure. I’m not tired, not tired at all. I’m just interested in your acupuncture.”
Nuannuan glanced at Old Master Chi and smiled. “Grandpa, feel free to observe.”
“Oh, okay! Okay! Where’s Chi Yang?”
“Big Brother Chi Yang is busy working in the study.”
“Oh, well. He does have too many things to do. Even if he ends his mission two days early, he doesn’t have any free time at home. Thank you for putting up with the trouble, Nuannuan.”
“Grandpa, what are you talking about? I don’t feel troubled at all. As long as I can be with Big Brother Chi Yang, I’m happy. Life is always sweet whenever Big Brother Chi Yang is around.”
Old Master Chi had originally wanted to lament his dead son, but he ended up bursting out in laughter because of Nuannuan.
After unintentionally calming her grandfather down, Nuannuan started to treat Feng Shengxuan’s illness.
She started with his stomach.
Thankfully, she had improved her supernatural ability and she could now see the large cells in the blood. Thus, she could see the cancer cells that were characterized with furry black exteriors in Feng Shengxuan’s stomach slowly eating away at the normal cells.
However, it seemed like his normal cells were still trying to resist.
