Mr. Yan, wake up! Your wife isn't a delicate little flower.

National Day is approaching.

Cheng Xihe called Yan Mingchuan over to perform the final acupuncture treatment.

"This is the last time this month. How does your leg feel now? All the remaining toxins have been cleared away."

Sitting on the edge of the bed, Cheng Xihe was slowly and methodically disinfecting the silver needles.

Yan Mingchuan was in very good health, and recovered quickly after the toxins were cleared away.

"My legs are alright, I can feel them again." Yan Mingchuan lay on the bed, a hint of joy on his face.

Research in biopharmaceuticals has encountered obstacles.

Those people still haven't figured out all the materials the research institute used; on the contrary, the stolen samples are almost used up.

Cheng Xihe placed his hand on Yan Mingchuan's leg: "The fact that he is conscious means he will recover soon."

"Your physique is really good; you're faster than I expected."

"Mmm." Yan Mingchuan buried his head in the pillow.

Cheng Xihe pressed his leg and began to administer acupuncture.

"hiss……"

"pain……"

This time, Yan Mingchuan didn't feel the pain after the acupuncture was administered and waited a while; he felt the pain as soon as the needle was inserted.

"Does it hurt a lot now?" Cheng Xihe looked up and saw the veins bulging on Yan Mingchuan's strong arms.

Two hands with distinct knuckles gripped the blanket tightly.

"Um."

Yan Mingchuan gave a mumbled "hmm," and then his forehead was covered in cold sweat.

Cheng Xihe frowned slightly: "It seems to hurt much more than I imagined. Bear with it for a bit, and I'll see if there's any other way to help you relieve the pain."

"I...I can do it, you can continue," Yan Mingchuan said haltingly, sweat beginning to trickle down his forehead.

Cheng Xihe chuckled and said, "Then can you relax first? If you're too tense, the needle won't be able to penetrate."

"I'll try my best," Yan Mingchuan said through gritted teeth, then slowly relaxed.

But his hands, tightly gripping the corner of the blanket, betrayed him.

Cheng Xihe gently touched Yan Mingchuan's leg muscles and said, "Yes, that's it. Relax a little."

Taking advantage of Yan Mingchuan's brief moment of relaxation, she finished inserting the remaining needles: "Don't move."

If you move around, these needles will pierce your flesh, and you'll bleed continuously, which won't be easy.

"I know."

Yan Mingchuan composed himself and said in a low voice, "This acupuncture hurts much more than before."

"Your meridians were blocked before, and you had toxins in your body, so it's normal that you couldn't feel the needles."

"But now that you're conscious and can feel it, it's not surprising that it hurts. Just bear with it and it will pass." Cheng Xihe sat next to Yan Mingchuan, staring at his legs.

Yan Mingchuan's voice was low and hoarse: "Don't worry, I'll control myself, as much as I can."

"Yes, you've done a great job."

Cheng Xihe comforted him from the side, gently stroking the back of Yan Mingchuan's neck and pressing lightly: "Relax."

"Um."

Yan Mingchuan's previously tense shoulders gradually relaxed.

Until the entire neck and shoulders are completely relaxed.

Cheng Xihe then chuckled and said, "Alright, I see you've gotten used to it. You can have the needles removed in ten more minutes."

Does it still hurt?

"I just feel a burning sensation, like something is burning me, but it doesn't hurt as much as it did at the beginning," Yan Mingchuan described his feelings to Cheng Xihe in great detail.

Cheng Xihe nodded and said, "Yes, that's pretty much the feeling. Your physical fitness is very strong."

Touching his chin, Cheng Xihe looked at Yan Mingchuan with an ambiguous expression.

Seemingly feeling the intense gaze, Yan Mingchuan turned his head to look at Cheng Xihe: "Why are you staring at me like that?"

"I just really want to dissect you, or get a blood sample from you, to see why your constitution is so much better than I thought."

When I first examined Yan Mingchuan, all I knew was that he had poison in his body, and that acupuncture and other methods to clear the poison would take about six months.

And that doesn't even include the subsequent rehabilitation treatment.

It's been less than two months.

The poison has been completely removed, and I can feel my legs again.

Wouldn't it be wonderful to study such a strong physique and see what makes it so amazing?

"Please give up on that idea."

Yan Mingchuan said helplessly, lying back down: "But you are the knife now, and I am just the fish on the chopping board, at your mercy."

"Don't worry, if you don't want to, that's fine too." Cheng Xihe leaned against the headboard, looking down at Yan Mingchuan.

"Beep beep beep!"

The alarm clock rang, and Cheng Xihe turned it off and removed the needle from Yan Mingchuan's hand.

All that could be seen on the back of Yan Mingchuan's fair legs were small needle marks.

It's practically invisible unless you look closely.

Unfortunately, Yan Mingchuan's legs are so white that you can still tell something from them.

Cheng Xihe pressed the bell.

"Sister-in-law, is Brother Yan's leg much better?" Su Jin came in from outside, looking at Cheng Xihe expectantly.

Cheng Xihe nodded:

"Yes, take him to rest for half an hour now."

Then, using the herbal medicine pack I prepared according to my previous prescription, give him a herbal bath.

"If I soak in it again today, I reckon I can start the next stage of treatment."

Fortunately, she went to prepare the medicine kit as soon as she got out of school today, so there was still enough time.

"That's wonderful, as expected of your sister-in-law!"

Su Jin lifted Yan Mingchuan into his wheelchair and pushed him away.

More than an hour later, Yan Mingchuan sat on the sofa.

Cheng Xihe was eating fruit and watching TV.

"You're here. Do you feel it more strongly now than before?" Cheng Xihe glanced at him and continued eating watermelon.

Yan Mingchuan touched his leg and curled his lips into a smile: "I feel refreshed right now."

"I believe that it won't be long before Brother Yan is able to start rehabilitation training!"

Su Jin sat down on the sofa with a smile and reached out to Cheng Xihe, "Sister-in-law, could I have a slice of watermelon?"

"Butler, bring Ah Jin a dish."

After Yan Mingchuan finished speaking, he glanced at him and said, "Don't fight with your sister-in-law for food. If you want watermelon, I can have someone prepare it for you."

"Oh, Brother Yan, you really protect your sister-in-law." Su Jin smiled indifferently and happily ate the watermelon.

Cheng Xihe checked the time: "What time is the flight tomorrow?"

"Everything is arranged. The chartered plane will fly tomorrow. The route has been applied for in advance, and the transit point has been confirmed," Yan Mingchuan said methodically.

Su Jin nodded: "Yes, sister-in-law, I've already brought my luggage. I'll be going to Switzerland with you tomorrow."

"Um."

Cheng Xihe nodded: "Okay, you can make the arrangements. What time do we leave tomorrow?"

"Let's go early, around 10 a.m.," Su Jin said, checking the time on her phone. "We'll leave at 7 a.m.

OK.

The group chatted downstairs for a while before returning to their rooms.

inside the house.

Cheng Xihe took a small box out of the cabinet.

I opened the box and found the key that my grandmother had left me.

She doesn't lack money now.

I just really want to know why my grandmother would leave something for me in such a faraway place.

I don't know what this precious thing is.

It's definitely not as simple as money.

After thinking for a moment, Cheng Xihe made a phone call.

"Feed?"

On the other end of the phone, Bai Ce's voice rang out.

Cheng Xihe said in a low voice, "I'm going to Switzerland tomorrow. Are you sure you can handle things back home?"

"Don't worry, boss. Leave everything here to me. Also, your money has been invested in the stock market as you requested."

"The stock has hit the daily limit for the past few days. This momentum is too strong. Should we stop?" It was the middle of the night, and Bai Ce was still sitting on the edge of his bed.

The large screen in front of me displays the stock market trends.

Cheng Xihe pondered for a moment, then said in a low voice, "Sell everything when the market opens, don't worry about anything else."

"Okay, I'll do as you say." Bai Ce told Cheng Xihe about the recent events at the company.

Cheng Xihe said coldly, "I have no problem entrusting all the company's affairs to you. Contact me anytime if anything comes up."

"Yes, boss."

After hanging up the phone, Cheng Xi packed the necessary items into her suitcase.

Tomorrow morning, we're off to Switzerland!
