13: Chapter 13 The Sleeping Old Lady 13: Chapter 13 The Sleeping Old Lady Half an hour later, beads of sweat appeared on Lin Fei’s forehead.
As he opened his eyes, he withdrew his hand from Madam Li’s waist.
And as he withdrew his hand, the gentle breeze that had been flowing through the room also disappeared without a trace.
Lin Fei stood up and looked at Mr.
Li, calmly saying, “Grandpa Li, the old lady’s back injury has fully healed.
She can get out of bed and walk.
Grandpa Li, could you please provide with a quiet room so I can rest for a while?”
Mr.
Li was taken aback upon hearing Ye Star’s words: What?
The old lady’s back injury has healed, and she can get out of bed and walk?
Is this true?
Having finally regained his composure, Mr.
Li imdiately said to Uncle Zhong, “Old Zhong, quickly, take Young Master Lin to the guest room to rest temporarily.”
Uncle Zhong replied, “Yes, sir.”
Then, Uncle Zhong politely said to Lin Fei, “Young Master Lin, please follow .”
Lin Fei was about to follow Uncle Zhong out when suddenly, Ruyan called out to him, “Lin Fei, wait a mont.”
Lin Fei stopped and looked at Ruyan, unsure of what she wanted to do.
Ruyan approached Lin Fei and smiled at him, “Lin Fei, you are sweating a lot.
Let wipe it off for you.”
After speaking, Ruyan took out a clean tissue and gently wiped the fine sweat off Lin Fei’s forehead.
This scene fell into the eyes of Li Shang and his wife, and their expressions imdiately turned sour.
In front of everyone, Ruyan showed such intimacy toward Lin Fei, making the couple even more unsure of how to explain it to Zhao Wenxuan.
Zhao Wenxuan was insanely jealous, but he thought about revealing Lin Fei as a sham mystic fraud later to avenge his hatred.
He suppressed the anger in his heart once more.
After wiping the sweat from Lin Fei’s forehead, Ruyan said, “Lin Fei, you should go rest first.
I’ll co find you later.”
Lin Fei nodded and then left with Uncle Zhong.
In the room, Mr.
Li, Li Shang and his wife, Ruyan, and Zhao Wenxuan all turned their gaze toward the old lady on the bed.
The five of them discovered that the old lady, who was lying on her side with her back to them, hadn’t moved since Lin Fei’s treatnt.
This made them even more curious about how effective the old lady’s treatnt was.
Mr.
Li went over first and gently called out to the old lady a few tis, “Old woman, old woman…”
He called several tis, but there was no response from the old lady.
“Oh no, that Lin Fei really is a fraud, sothing must have happened to the old lady,” Zhao Wenxuan suddenly lanted.
Upon hearing this, Li Shang and his wife imdiately echoed, “Dad, could mom have fainted?”
Mr.
Li and Ruyan’s expressions also changed.
However, just then, a light snoring sound ca: “HoooZZzz”
The five of them were taken aback.
This is…
Then they noticed that the snoring was coming from the old lady who was lying on her side on the bed.
Ruyan suddenly thought of sothing, walked to the other side of the bed, and then couldn’t help but smile.
This was the first ti she had seen soone fall asleep during a treatnt.
Her anxious heart was finally at ease.
Since her grandmother could sleep so soundly during the treatnt, it ant her back pain had been relieved, allowing her to sleep peacefully.
This implied that Lin Fei had indeed managed to cure her grandmother’s back pain.
Seeing the smile on Ruyan’s face, Mr.
Li, Li Shang and his wife, and Zhao Wenxuan beca even more curious and walked to the other side of the bed.
They were all stunned by what they saw.
Madam Li was sleeping very peacefully, even with a little drool at the corner of her mouth, sleeping like a child.
Zhao Wenxuan’s eyes widened, and he was completely baffled.
The old lady hadn’t fainted—she was asleep.
How could this be?
Mr.
Li saw this and suddenly smiled: The old lady is sleeping so soundly, it seems everything is fine.
“Dad, should we wake mom up?” Li Shang looked at Mr.
Li and asked.
Mr.
Li reached out to stop him, “Son, it’s best not to wake her.
In the past few days, your mom hasn’t slept well because of her back pain.
Let her rest well.”
“Yes, Dad,” Li Shang replied.
Looking at his mother sleeping so soundly on the bed, even if Li Shang were any duller, he would see that his mother’s back pain must have been cured.
He exchanged a look with his wife, both feeling very worried about Zhao Wenxuan’s bet.
He gave his wife a signal, and she imdiately understood.
Madam Li then spoke to Zhao Wenxuan, “Wenxuan, since my mom has fallen asleep, this bet cannot proceed.
You’ve worked hard as well, why not go back and rest?”
Anyone could see who won and who lost between Zhao Wenxuan and Lin Fei.
Madam Li said this to hint at him to slip away.
She did not want to lose Young Master Zhao as a prospective son-in-law and business partner because of this bet.
Zhao Wenxuan was very grateful to Madam Li and imdiately said, “In that case, Madam Li, I’ll take my leave first.”
After speaking, Zhao Wenxuan said to Mr.
Li and Ruyan, “Grandpa Li, Ruyan, I will take my leave now.”
Mr.
Li and Ruyan could both see that Zhao Wenxuan was trying to slip away to avoid losing the bet, and they both despised his sly and unscrupulous nature.
“Hmm, safe travels, Young Master Zhao,” Mr.
Li said.
Ruyan, however, ignored Zhao Wenxuan and kept her eyes on her grandmother on the bed.
Suddenly, she saw her grandmother was awake and had opened her eyes.
She imdiately said to Mr.
Li, “Grandpa, look, grandma is awake.”
As soon as Ruyan said this, Zhao Wenxuan, about to leave, almost went weak in the knees.
No way!
The old lady woke up now of all tis?
Mr.
Li happily asked his wife, “Old woman, how did you fall asleep?”
It took a mont for Madam Li to beco fully awake, and with a baffled look on her face, she said, “Oh right, wasn’t I being treated?
How did I fall asleep?
Wait, I rember when Young Master Lin was treating , there was a particularly warm and comfortable flow that relaxed completely and then…
I fell asleep without realizing it.”
Mr.
Li and Ruyan both looked confused.
A particularly warm and comfortable flow?
What was that?
Mr.
Li hurriedly asked, “So, old woman, do you still feel back pain now?”
Madam Li said, “I’ll get up and see.”
With that said, Madam Li sat up from the bed and then got out of bed, pressing her hands on her back and rubbing them.
She felt it still wasn’t enough and took a few steps in the room, as if to confirm, before saying to Mr.
Li, “Old man, my back seems to be…
really fine!”
However, Mr.
Li, Ruyan, Li Shang and his wife, and Zhao Wenxuan were already dumbfounded.
They had not expected Madam Li’s back pain to actually be cured and that she could get out of bed and walk.
Lin Fei had really done it.
Zhao Wenxuan, a scion of a family of famous doctors, felt like he’d been struck by a bolt from the blue.
His face turned as pale as frost, and fine beads of cold sweat covered his forehead.
A deep unease erged within him: sothing he and the forr director of the city’s First People’s Hospital couldn’t achieve was done by an obscure young man from the mountains.
In ti, wouldn’t Lin Fei beco renowned in Huadu, overshadowing him and the Zhao family completely?
Zhao Wenxuan suddenly felt an enormous threat and resolved in his heart to prevent Lin Fei from gaining fa.
“Young Master Zhao, Lin Fei has already cured my grandmother’s back pain, and she can also get out of bed and walk.
You lost the bet with Lin Fei, so I hope you keep your promise,” Ruyan said, looking at Zhao Wenxuan at this ti.
Zhao Wenxuan’s expression turned ugly, and he kept silent.
Madam Li, however, reprimanded her daughter, “Ruyan, even if Wenxuan lost the bet, I won’t agree to you being with Lin Fei.”
“Mom, why are you being unreasonable?” Ruyan furrowed her brows, saying sowhat puzzled.
Madam Li snorted coldly, “No matter what you say, I won’t let you be with Lin Fei.”
Ruyan didn’t want to listen to her mother anymore, so she said, “I’m going to see Lin Fei.”
Then, ignoring her mother’s increasingly angry face, Ruyan left the room.
In another room in the villa, Lin Fei was sitting cross-legged on the guest room sofa, closing his eyes to calm his mind.
