Huangfu Ruiling frowned, who knew what he was thinking at the moment?
Ye Leng’an looked at Huangfu Ruiling’s appearance and wondered what was the relationship between Huangfu Ruiling and Zhongyu Yiran. If they were familiar with each other, then why did Huangfu Ruiling call her by her full name? And they didn’t seem close at all. If they didn’t know each other well, why did Huangfu Ruiling dash around and seek treatment for her illness? It was really strange.
However, she could tell that the people around Huangfu Ruiling seemed to be quite familiar with Zhongyu Yiran, especially Li Yi, who seemed to be very concerned about Zhongyu Yiran.
After a while, Huangfu Ruiling spoke again, “Is there any way to stabilize her condition temporarily? The herbs haven’t been found yet.”
Ye Leng’an thought for a moment before saying, “I have a medicine that can temporarily make the Gu worms in her body hibernate for three months. During this period of time, no matter what happens, even the owner of the Gu worms cannot control them. But…”
“But what?”
“The side effects of that medicine are a little severe.” Ye Leng’an continued to explain, “The medication that can make the Gu worms fall into hibernation will cause a lot of damage to the human body. Moreover, the damage is irreversible. To put it simply, even if the patient wakes up in the future, it will be impossible for her to recover as before.”
This was also the reason why she hesitated because the damage would be severe. Even if the patient woke up in the future, she might become a sickly person. So, whether or not to use the medicine, let Huangfu Ruiling decide!
Huangfu Ruiling pondered for a moment and asked, “How severe will the damage be?”
“Her body will become very weak.” Ye Leng’an said, “It can be even said that her body will be much weaker than an ordinary person’s. Even a cold can develop into pneumonia in a moment of carelessness. In short, she needed to be very careful in recuperating her health. However, if there are some medicinal herbs to nourish her body, such as ginseng or glossy ganoderma, those will help her to recover.”
These medicinal herbs were all expensive and precious. However, for Huangfu Ruiling, it should be a piece of cake.
Huangfu Ruiling thought for a while and said, “Then use the medicinal herbs! I will tell the people to hurry up with the search for herbs in the southern boundaries. But… I wonder when you’ll be free?”
“The Mathematical Olympiad qualifier is in a few days.” Ye Leng’an pondered for a moment and said, “After the Mathematical Olympiad qualifier is over, I’ll ask the principal if I can take leave. Then, we’ll set off!”
She had planned to go during the winter break, but now that things had changed, it was better to leave as soon as possible. The Gu worms in Zhongyu Yiran’s body were like a time bomb. No one knew when it would explode.
Especially now that something had happened to the owner of the Gu worms.
If this dragged on, she didn’t know if the person on the bed would still be able to wait for the medicine. Therefore, they could only set off early.
However, the principal would probably be unhappy. After all, she had just returned to school not long ago, and now she had to ask for leave again. “That’s good.” Huangfu Ruiling nodded. “I’ll get someone to prepare for it.”
“Then I’ll go back and make pills later.” Ye Leng’an nodded and said,
“Tomorrow morning, remember to send someone over to pick up the medicine. There are no requirements for that pill. Just put it in her mouth and it will melt.”
“Okay.” Huangfu Ruiling nodded and then looked at her watch. “It’s getting late. I’ll send you back!”
“No need.” Ye Leng’an carried her bag and left without waiting for Huangfu
Ruiling to say anything. “I still have something to do. I can go back by myself.”
After that, she waved her hand and left.
Huangfu Ruiling was about to say something, but he went silent when watching Ye Leng’an leave.
After Ye Leng’an left that place, she did not go home. She took a taxi to a dilapidated building, then went up to the fifth floor and went straight into a unit. There was a sign hanging outside the room that read “Chaoyang Private Detective Agency”.
The purpose of her trip was to meet the private detective. Previously, she learned from Ye Shen and Li Zhaohui that the only person related to her was a woman with a crescent birthmark on her wrist. Although she didn’t really care about her own life story, she was still curious. Therefore, she hired a private detective to investigate. Two days ago, the private detective called her, saying that there was some progress and he wanted to talk to her..
