Chapter 234: Chapter 234: She Also Needs to Uphold Mo Yinhe’s Dignity! 3
This was exactly what Si Mingjing wanted to hear.
Of course, she wasn’t afraid of Yang Wanling burning bridges after she had served her purpose.
"I’ve heard that your father suffers from chronic headaches that medication can’t relieve. Countless famous doctors couldn’t cure him. When the migraine strikes, does his head feel like it will split open, and does he become extremely irritable? Is it true that only bloodletting can provide temporary relief?"
Yang Wanling nodded.
"That’s right. I heard my mother mention it. She was saved by my father and saw how he looked when he was seriously ill. Once the illness strikes, he becomes especially brutal. Anyone serving him might be dragged out to be beheaded, although I’ve never seen it myself."
Because she was born in A Country and had lived there all these years, she had never seen her own father.
She had only heard her mother describe his condition, knowing that her father had migraines, which seemed to have worsened over the years.
When Si Mingjing suddenly mentioned her father’s illness, Yang Wanling’s eyes brightened. "Miss Si, could it be that you can treat my father’s illness?"
Si Mingjing had guessed what illness the King of Gendaya was suffering from, but she wasn’t entirely certain.
Therefore, she needed someone to get close to the King of Gendaya to learn more about his condition.
Si Mingjing gave Yang Wanling a small vial of medicine.
"Find a way to see your father. When he’s suffering from a severe headache, give him one pill. If it relieves his headache, then there is hope that you can stay by his side."
Yang Wanling immediately clutched the small vial tightly. "Really? Can this medicine cure my father’s illness?"
"It can’t cure it outright, only provide temporary relief. You’ll need to stay by your father’s side and report his daily condition to me in great detail. This will allow me to understand more about his illness. Only then might I be able to cure his migraines."
"I understand."
Yang Wanling treated the small vial as a lifeline; she was determined to use this medicine to make her father keep her by his side.
Si Mingjing stopped there. "Man proposes, Heaven disposes. Whether your father values you is up to your own skills. Go now!"
Yang Wanling indeed left.
She had arrived in despondency but left in high spirits because she believed in Si Mingjing’s medical skills!
In the villa courtyard, Ye Siyuan saw Yang Wanling walking out of the neighboring small building and thought she was seeing things. She strode over and saw Yang Wanling getting into a car.
Ye Siyuan’s expression changed abruptly, and she glared. "Why are you here?"
"I-It was Miss Si who invited me for tea."
Frightened, Yang Wanling pulled open the car door and scrambled inside.
Then she floored the accelerator and sped off.
Fuming, Ye Siyuan went to find Si Mingjing.
She found her in the Sunlight Room.
"Mingjing, how could you invite Yang Wanling for tea? Don’t you know she almost got Asheng thrown in jail?" Ye Siyuan said angrily.
"Si Yuan, have a seat."
Si Mingjing also brewed a cup of floral tea for Ye Siyuan.
After Ye Siyuan sat down, she said with a stern face, "I don’t like Yang Wanling!"
Si Mingjing replied, "Neither do I."
"Then why invite her to your home for floral tea?"
"Don’t be angry. She’s just a pawn in my hands."
Si Mingjing shared her plan with Ye Siyuan: she wanted Qu Gaoyang to have no choice but to cut off his own arm.
After listening, Ye Siyuan asked, "Will this really work?"
"What do you think?" Si Mingjing leaned back lazily against the tatami mat cushion.
Ye Siyuan thought for a moment and then suddenly smiled.
"Mingjing, I think it’s worth a try! As far as I know, the King of Gendaya has become very brutal due to years of suffering from migraines. If he finds out that someone can cure his illness, he would pay any price, let alone forcing his son to cut off an arm. But are you sure you can cure the King of Gendaya’s illness?"
Si Mingjing wasn’t very certain.
During her recovery in the hospital, she had asked Mo Yinhe many things about Gendaya. Hearing that the King of Gendaya was ill, she saw it as a breakthrough for her revenge.
So she had to seize this opportunity!
"Currently, I’m only sixty percent certain. The remaining forty percent depends on Yang Wanling getting close to the King of Gendaya and informing me of his daily condition so I can accurately diagnose whether his illness is as I suspect. The medicine I gave her is just to test the waters; if it provides relief, then my guess is almost certainly correct."
Ye Siyuan felt displeased thinking about Yang Wanling, who had nearly killed her brother, returning to Gendaya to enjoy a comfortable life.
But Mingjing was right. There was no one more suitable than Yang Wanling.
"Mingjing, I trust you. Qu Gaoyang nearly killed you; we absolutely can’t let him off! However, Mingjing, you don’t need to stress yourself out over this. My brother will definitely seek revenge for you," she said.
I don’t want to be so weak that I need protection; I wish to be a capable wife.
Si Mingjing thought.After her mood lightened, Ye Siyuan said, "Given Yang Wanling’s status, it might take some effort for her to go to Gendaya and get close to her father. For your sake, I’ll lend her a hand and have someone send her to Gendaya."
Ye Siyuan called Qu Liushang.
She told Qu Liushang that Yang Wanling had medicine that could relieve their father’s migraines.
Undoubtedly, upon hearing this, Qu Liushang would send Yang Wanling to Gendaya.
Then she grabbed Si Mingjing’s arm and said, "Mingjing, let’s go see my cousin’s wife together. She gave birth to a big, chubby boy weighing six pounds, eight ounces, but she’s been somewhat weak since the delivery. My cousin said that since he knows you’re well-versed in Traditional Chinese Medicine, he wants you to prescribe something to help her recuperate. Childbirth is really too rough! She was in pain for a whole day and night before giving birth."
"Is it Ye Qinghan’s wife?"
"Yes, my cousin’s wife and I grew up together; we’re very close friends. Her name is Yan Zhenxi. Let’s go see her together. Could you take her pulse and help her recuperate?"
"Alright. Wait for me a moment, I’ll get my medical kit."
Si Mingjing went back to her bedroom to retrieve her medical kit.
Then she and Ye Siyuan went together to see the newborn.
Ye Siyuan snatched the medical kit. "I’ll carry it for you. You haven’t fully recovered yet; you can’t tire yourself out, or my brother will definitely have words for me."
Si Mingjing smiled. "Then I won’t stand on ceremony with you."
Ye Qinghan also lived in the manor, but not in the same villa.
The manor was dotted with several villas, artfully scattered to ensure privacy for each small family unit while keeping the entire extended family as close neighbors.
As the saying goes, a close neighbor is better than a distant relative.
Living together, the family supported each other routinely, fostering very strong bonds.
The two of them walked through the manor, chatting and gossiping as they went.
Previously, Si Mingjing had been very close to both Ye Siyuan and Yan Zhenxi. The year Si Mingjing disappeared, Yan Zhenxi hadn’t yet married Ye Qinghan.
Back then, Yan Zhenxi’s boyfriend wasn’t Ye Qinghan, but Xia Man. Unfortunately, the two did not end up together.
Due to his own health reasons, Xia Man gave up on Yan Zhenxi. While heartbroken, Yan Zhenxi’s heart was conquered by Ye Qinghan.
The couple married last year and had a big, chubby boy this year.
