Qin Xuan immediately placed his hands on Liu Qing's sides.
While using healing spells to mend her physical injuries, he also stimulated various acupoints to invigorate the vital energy remaining in her body.
With this vital energy present, Liu Qing's body began to recover at a visible pace.
By the time the spell ended, Qin Xuan was drenched in sweat.
Liu Qing's pale, paper-like complexion finally showed a hint of color.
"General Qin, why hasn't she woken up yet?"
Wiping the sweat from Qin Xuan's brow, Yuan Mengqi couldn't help but inquire about Liu Qing's condition.
Qin Xuan shook his head slightly, picked up a nearby cup of water, and drank it in one gulp. "She hasn't not woken up; she's fallen into a state of self-enclosure again."
"She doesn't want to face you and me, nor does she want to face this world."
"So she has sealed her consciousness once more."
"Only when she receives a stimulus that truly allows her to 'live' will she actively break the seal and regain consciousness."
"And at that point, she will have truly 'come back from the dead'."
"However, you don't need to worry too much."
"Her recovery is even better than I had imagined."
"Even if she remains enclosed for a period, there won't be any irreversible problems."
"So during this time, we just need to find someone or something that can reignite her will to live, and she will fully recover."
Qin Xuan wasn't deliberately trying to comfort Yuan Mengqi.
This was because during the treatment, he had not only stimulated most of the vital energy remaining in her body.
He had also used a significant portion of his own vital energy to guide the process.
With such a large amount of vital energy stimulating her, Liu Qing's body, like a newborn infant, began to metabolize frantically.
However, Liu Qing's will to live was simply too low, practically non-existent.
As soon as Qin Xuan stopped guiding the vital energy, her body would return to dormancy.
This was why Qin Xuan had treated her without regard for his own exhaustion, and Liu Qing's body had lived up to Qin Xuan's expectations, recovering more than eighty percent.
But as Qin Xuan had said, although Liu Qing's physical condition had largely recovered, her will to live remained absent.
Now that her physical issues were resolved, the focus would shift to her psychological problems.
According to the news and further information from Yuan Mengqi, Qin Xuan learned that Liu Qing had chosen to end her life because she believed the world had become utterly irredeemable.
Whether it was her close friends or the netizens she interacted with online,
They had all uniformly blamed and cursed her.
The decision that she believed was absolutely correct had become something the entire world mocked and condemned.
How absurd and tragic was that?
Yet, she lacked the ability to change this distorted world.
That was why she had completely lost hope in the world that afternoon.
Since she was no longer in harmony with the world, it would be better to die sooner and avoid the unpleasantness.
Qin Xuan deeply understood Liu Qing's thoughts.
Whether it was the cyberbullying he faced due to Fu Mei's imprisonment or the subsequent rescue incident involving Xiao Zhan, both had made him feel that some people in this world were truly beyond saving.
And the number of such people was growing, making him fear the entire world was on the verge of collapse.
But upon reflection, it was also a completely normal phenomenon.
They lived in an era of explosive information, where each person received and disseminated more information daily than people in the past might have in a month or even a year.
Under the bombardment of such massive amounts of information, it was inevitable that many people would fail to distinguish right from wrong.
Furthermore, the internet, where people were largely anonymous, had extremely low barriers to speech.
This led them to be even more unrestrained.
And this unrestrained behavior, in turn, influenced other groups with even lower judgment.
This cycle continued.
Therefore, to solve this problem, the issue had to be addressed at its root.
The most effective method, naturally, was to improve the cultural literacy of everyone.
However, this was not something he could achieve with a mere statement.
Even after so many years of China's nine-year compulsory education, there were still so many people who couldn't even complete basic schooling.
Directly improving cultural literacy was not feasible, so Qin Xuan considered all other aspects.
Such as real-name internet registration, reform of the entertainment industry, and so on.
But these still required the intervention of the Chinese government's upper echelons; there was very little he could influence.
Therefore, he had no choice but to start with the industries under his own banner and then gradually expand them to the entire country.
And this meant he had to control China's entire internet and entertainment industry.
"Alright, it's decided then."
"Anyway, ever since I returned to the country, I was going to take control of the various industries under the Qin family."
"Taking control of any of them is the same, so I'll start with all the internet and cultural entertainment industries!"
"As for Liu Qing's problem..."
"I'll just have to try more."
Having determined his future direction, Qin Xuan attempted to have a heart-to-heart conversation with Liu Qing.
He told her about the things he had just thought of and the decisions he had made.
Although her fingers twitched slightly, she ultimately failed to wake up.
With no other options, Qin Xuan and Yuan Mengqi had to leave first.
As for Liu Qing, they arranged for specialized personnel to closely monitor her, to prevent any further accidents.
The moon was bright, and the stars were sparse, with a gentle breeze blowing.
Qin Xuan and Yuan Mengqi strolled through the rare tranquility of the capital.
Having just established his goals, Qin Xuan's mind was filled with how to quickly take control of the Qin family's various industries.
Yuan Mengqi, walking beside him, tilted her head, gazing at Qin Xuan's profile with a slight daze.
Upon returning to the family this time, her grandfather had once again expressed strong dissatisfaction with her inaction.
At the same time, he had ordered her to be the first among the four sisters to confess her feelings to Qin Xuan.
This was because the elder had old acquaintances with the patriarchs of other families.
He knew that they would, like him, urge their granddaughters to get together with Qin Xuan as soon as possible.
Therefore, to give his granddaughter more leverage among them, he had to ensure she took the lead.
However, Yuan Mengqi did not think this way.
It wasn't that she looked down on Qin Xuan.
On the contrary, after interacting with him for these past days, she had already fallen for him.
But secret admiration and open declaration were two entirely different matters, especially now that her grandfather had escalated it to the point of marriage.
This inevitably caused her to develop a strong sense of resistance.
Furthermore, having been with Qin Xuan for so long, she knew he was a very devoted person.
With Xiao Ya already being his official girlfriend, how could she, a subordinate, dare to speak up first?
Lost in thought, Yuan Mengqi didn't notice that she had stumbled on a step on the ground.
As her body lost balance, a strong and powerful arm instantly caught her.
