“There are a lot of causes for neuralgia, but Min Yu is suffering from it due to his external injuries,” said Huo Yao slowly.
Zhuo Yun scratched his head. “But he didn’t suffer from any physical injuries.”
His boss had been recuperating all this time and did not fight even once.
“It was an unknown complication,” said Huo Yao calmly.
She turned to Min Yu and lifted his blanket to press a few acupuncture points on his chest. “Does it hurt more here?”
Min Yu let out a stifled moan. Despite not saying a word or nodding, it was clear from the way he had reacted.
Huo Yao pulled her hands back.
Old Mr. Pei could not help sighing when Huo Yao located the source of his pain so swiftly. He used to think that Huo Yao was only well-versed in Chinese medicine owing to her apothecary skills. From the looks of it now, her knowledge of Chinese medicine was undoubtedly high.
“Based on Young Master Min’s condition, the best way to solve the problem is to apply acupuncture. But his pain increased when I tried it earlier, so I didn’t dare continue. Also, we can’t use any pain killers as it might cause his old ailment to relapse,” said Old Mr. Pei with a depressed smile.
He could not help feeling worried.
Huo Yao went quiet for a few seconds. She looked at Min Yu. Without going into details, she said, “Bear with it for a moment. I need to head back to get something.”
Min Yu’s lower lip had turned red from his biting. He smiled gently. Even though his face was ghastly pale, he still managed to look attractive. “Okay.”
Huo Yao narrowed her eyes before she headed out.
Zhuo Yun wanted to follow her. However, he halted when he caught sight of his boss smiling despite the agony.
He was clearly in great pain, but continued to act tough.
Zhuo Yun was hoping that Huo Yao could alleviate some of Min Yu’s misery.
Huo Yao went home and greeted Huo Tingrui, Huo Xiang, and Huo Jinyan who were sitting in the living room before heading upstairs.
‘Yaoyao, is your mother staying out late tonight?” asked Huo Jinyan. He knew that his wife had taken their daughter to meet her friends.
Huo Yao had just stepped onto the staircase when she heard what her father said. She paused and turned to look at him and asked quizzically. “Isn’t Mom back yet?”
Huo Jinyan blinked. “Nope, she isn’t.”
“Huh... But she just dropped me home. Didn’t she come in?”
Huo Jinyan contemplated before he retrieved his phone. “I’ll give her a call.”
Huo Yao nodded. Since she was not worried something might go wrong, she said nothing and hurried upstairs.
After she came to her room, Huo Yao took out the box containing her silver needles and rushed downstairs again.
“Yao, are you going somewhere?” asked Huo Tingrui in surprise.
“Uh huh. I need to do something. Be back soon.” Huo Yao nodded before looking at her father to ask. “Where has Mom gone?”
Huo Jinyan told Huo Yao what his wife had just said on the phone, “She’s at the supermarket.”
“Okay. Have an early night, everyone. I’m off,” said Huo Yao without probing further.
Huo Tingrui stood up and asked her. “Why the hurry? Where are you heading? Need a lift?”
“It’s fine. I’m just going next door.” Huo Yao turned him down and waved her hand.
She left from there rather quickly. Before Huo Tingrui could wrap his mind around it, the door clicked shut.
Huo Tingrui was taken aback.
