Chapter 293 - 293: It’s Me
From the very beginning, Fu Yubai had been struggling.
He was pushing himself hard not to collapse.
His body was already at the point of exhaustion, and his ability to endure was only thanks to the timely arrival of Nan Yan’s medicine. However, his injuries were too severe, and despite Nan Yan’s careful treatment for a few days, his recovery was limited, and he could only hold on for dear life.
But when Fu Yunhai and his men suddenly barged into his hospital room, threatening him to relinquish power, and attempting to harm Fu Linfeng, his emotions became too turbulent. This placed immense stress on his weak body.
Once he was sure that Fu Linfeng was no longer in danger, he relaxed his nerves, but that sudden drop in tension, combined with his frail condition, almost pushed him to the brink of death.
Nan Yan didn’t have time to talk to him at this moment. She pursed her lips, her expression extremely serious, and swiftly removed his hospital gown. Then, with a speed that made it nearly impossible to see her hands, she inserted silver needles into his acupoints.
After needle insertion, she took out the medication she had intended to give him today and poured out three pills, which she immediately placed in his mouth.
“Junior… junior sister…”
Fu Yubai stubbornly grasped Nan Yan’s clothing, his eyes unable to see clearly but seemingly able to sense her presence, as he stared at her, waiting for her response.
“It’s me.”
Nan Yan sighed. She couldn’t bear to be so heartless when he was in such a state. She admitted her identity.
Fu Linfeng, who was standing nearby, had his eyes widened upon hearing Nan Yan’s words. His gaze was filled with disbelief.
Oh heavens, if the miracle doctor was his big brother’s junior sister, then…
Why didn’t she recognize his big brother before?
Fu Linfeng couldn’t comprehend it, scratched his head, and obediently stood to the side, watching the miracle doctor save his big brother. After all, his big brother didn’t look like he was in good condition.
Fu Yubai’s eyes regained some focus as he gazed at Nan Yan in a daze, murmuring, “It’s really you…”
“It’s me, Third Senior Brother. Don’t talk anymore!”
Nan Yan pressed her hand against Fu Yubai’s wrist, her brow furrowed deeply.
His condition was really precarious.
Even she didn’t have absolute certainty that she could save him right now.
If only their master were here…
But…
Nan Yan’s expression turned gloomy once again.
Her master was in the Medicine God Valley, and even if he wanted to come, it would take at least a day to reach here.
Third Senior Brother couldn’t wait that long.
Ignoring Nan Yan’s words, Fu Yubai, upon learning that she was his junior sister, regained some of his clarity of mind. His complexion even improved slightly, gaining a hint of color.
“I thought I’d never see you again…”
“For three years, you left without a word. What was the reason?”
His voice was weak, speaking intermittently, but he persisted.
He was afraid that if he closed his eyes, he would never wake up again.
After finally finding her, how could he be content with just a few words before they missed each other again?
“When you’re feeling better, I’ll tell you everything. For now, don’t speak. Keep your strength! ”
Nan Yan’s voice was almost through gritted teeth.
Fu Yubai felt that she was genuinely angry, so he obediently closed his mouth.
Once he closed his mouth, his eyes, however, remained fixed on her without blinking.
Perhaps it was due to the effects of the medicine he had just taken or the acupuncture, but his previously blurry vision gradually began to clear. Nan Yan’s appearance was finally reflected in his eyes without any blurriness.
In fact, he had many Questions.
He wanted to know how she had become like this, and he also wanted to know about her experiences over the past three years.
However, seeing her worried expression, he couldn’t bring himself to ask any of those questions; they all got stuck in his throat.
After enduring the intense pain, Fu Yunhai began to feel fear.
Who was this girl?
Why was she so powerful?!
Compared to Fu Yubai, who was already gravely ill, this person referred to as “Junior sister” by Fu Yubai was clearly much more mysterious.
During his previous investigations, there was no mention of such a person…
An hour passed in absolute silence.
Finally, Nan Yan’s hand loosened from Fu Yubai’s wrist.
His condition stabilized.
It could be considered that he had passed the critical phase.
Nan Yan let out a sigh of relief, stood up, and removed the silver needles from Fu Yubai’s acupoints.
Then she glanced at Fu Yunhai’s group with a cold and stern expression and gave her instructions in a deep voice:
“Fu Linfeng, your big brother’s condition absolutely cannot withstand any more stress. From now on, you must be extremely vigilant and not let anyone disturb him.”
“I understand!”
Fu Linfeng immediately became serious and then stared at Fu Yunhai with a stern look. “Uncle, regardless of what the elders say, whether you came here on orders or for personal reasons, during the time my big brother is receiving treatment, if you dare to disturb him again, I, Fu Linfeng, will sacrifice my life if necessary, but I won’t let the Fu family be ruined!”
“The Fu family has recovered from almost being annihilated, thanks to my big brother. If you undermine us after crossing the river, then prepare for mutual destruction!”
In the Fu family, Fu Linfeng didn’t have much presence.
With a powerful older brother above him who essentially resolved everything for him, he could be willful and idle.
In the eyes of outsiders, he seemed like a carefree playboy, and no one took him seriously.
But if anyone underestimated him because of this, they were wrong.
With an older brother as strong and perfect as Fu Yubai as an example, how could he fall short?
He was just used to hiding behind Fu Yubai and didn’t like to show himself.
“Go back and tell them that I, Fu Linfeng, keep my word!”
Fu Yunhai was almost infuriated.
He actually wanted to leave.
However, the people he brought with him were all under the threat of death, and even he himself was seriously injured. Besides, that girl hadn’t spoken, so he didn’t dare to leave.
Fu Yunhai didn’t dare to plead with Nan Yan, so he could only beg Fu Yubai.
“Yubai, this time, I came under Second Elder’s orders, and it wasn’t my choice.
Please, I beg you, considering our past relationship, let your junior sister spare
Fu Linfeng sneered, “When were you ever good to my big brother?”
Fu Yubai had just escaped danger, and his complexion was even paler than usual. He lay weakly on the sickbed and spoke in a hoarse voice, “Junior sister, can you let them go now?”
Fu Linfeng protested, “Big brother, they’ve all come here, and you still want to let them go?”
“Xiaofeng, things aren’t as simple as you think… cough, cough…’
As soon as Fu Yubai started coughing, Fu Linfeng’s face turned pale with fear, and he quickly said, “Alright, alright, I won’t say anything more. Big brother, don’t worry, speak less!”
Nan Yan raised her hand and lightly pressed on Fu Yubai’s chest twice, then whispered, “Third Senior Brother, your decision is your own to make.”
Fu Yubai suppressed his cough and said softly, “Then let them go.”
Nan Yan acknowledged with a nod and walked over to the three men under Fu Yunhai, removing the silver needles stuck in their vital points.
Then, with a stern and cold expression, she said, “All of you, get out. I have something to say to you..”
