The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Hide Multiple Identities-Chapter 380: It Might Be More Painful
Chapter 380: Chapter 380: It Might Be More Painful
"Miss Nan, I’ve been waiting for you."
A gentle sentence caused Nan Yu’s heart to skip a beat.
She quickly regained her composure, her beautiful face donning a gentle smile.
"I usually arrive on time, you don’t have to wait specifically for me."
Huo Juanyan closed the book in his hands, placing it on the bedside table next to him, then looked at Nan Yu. The black gold mask shone not with coldness, but with warmth in the sunlight.
He looked up at Nan Yu, the smile on his lips growing more pronounced.
"Your treatment is what matters most."
Chen Li stepped forward, placed the box on the bedside table, and turned back to Nan Yu, saying, "Miss Nan, everything you asked me to prepare is ready, we can start the treatment."
Nan Yu stepped forward, "Secretary Chen, please wait outside."
Chen Li immediately complied, exited the bedroom, and thoughtfully closed the door behind her.
For a moment, only the two of them were left in the entire bedroom.
Nan Yu sat on the edge of the bed, slightly raised her head and looked at Huo Juanyan, "Family Head, let me take your pulse."
Huo Juanyan obediently extended his hand, placing it in front of Nan Yu.
He glanced down and saw Nan Yu’s fair fingertips touch his wrist, then slightly lifting his eyelids to see her focused expression.
He just watched her like this, clearly seeing her long, curly black eyelashes and her clear, spring-like black eyes.
In the quiet bedroom, they could hear each other’s breathing.
After an unknown period, Nan Yu withdrew her slightly cool fingertips, lifted her clear eyes, and met Huo Juanyan’s gaze.
"Family Head, your condition is quite complex, and the ailments in your legs are quite severe, even more challenging than I anticipated. The upcoming treatments will require increased dosage and longer acupuncture duration."
Her voice paused, hesitating for two seconds before she continued.
"It might be more painful."
Huo Juanyan slowly pulled back his hand, his deep eyes under the mask filled with a distinct smile.
"How painful can it be? It couldn’t be worse than never being able to stand up again."
He looked at her earnestly, "Nan Yu, you treat me however you see fit. As long as I can stand, I will cooperate unconditionally."
Hearing this, Nan Yu felt as if she had limitless support, her gaze locking with his.
"Family Head, I will definitely make you stand."
Huo Juanyan nodded slightly, "Hmm, begin the acupuncture."
Nan Yu took the Silver Needle from the box, laid them all out, and then targeted Huo Juanyan’s acupoints to begin one by one.
Huo Juanyan watched this scene and could clearly see that the number of Silver Needles differed from yesterday, doubled in quantity, and the acupoints targeted were more than yesterday.
Soon, both legs were densely covered with Silver Needles.
Since his legs had no sensation, he couldn’t feel anything and could only watch the needles inserted, pondering when he would actually feel them.
After Nan Yu finished, she turned her head to Huo Juanyan, "Family Head, you can sleep for a while. After half an hour, tonight might not be so easy for you."
Huo Juanyan had no desire to sleep; he shook his head, "No need."
Having said that, he picked up the book from the bedside table and started reading again.
Seeing this, Nan Yu did not try to persuade him further and left the bedroom to find Chen Li for the herbal medicine she had asked to be prepared.
Chen Li had already prepared the herbal medicine as Nan Yu had requested.
She handed it to Nan Yu, "Miss Nan, here is the herbal drink, and Aunt Li has prepared the medicinal bath. After the treatment, you can soak directly."
Nan Yu took the steaming bowl of herbal medicine and said to Chen Li, "Secretary Chen, thank you for your hard work. You can rest downstairs. No matter what happens later, please wait outside and don’t let anyone in, it might disturb my treatment."
