Ren Ningyue furrowed her brow slightly, weakly waved her hand, and said feebly, "It's okay, let him co over and sit."
Looking at Ren Ningyue, who was in the pri of her youth, Ye Tianfan couldn't help but frown. In terms of looks, Ren Ningyue was no less beautiful than Qin Ruong, but she had a sickly appearance, her lips were slightly pale, yet her facial features resembled those of Daiyu. When sitting quietly, she was like a delicate flower mirrored in water, and her slight smiles and frowns were like a fragile willow swaying in the breeze, stirring a touch of compassion in one's heart.
"Hello, Miss Ren."
Ye Tianfan smiled slightly, impolitely pulled a chair, and sat beside Ren Ningyue.
At this mont, the man suddenly frowned, a shiny military knife appeared in his right hand, and he took a small step forward, positioning himself to Ye Tianfan's left side. This spot was precisely Ye Tianfan's blind spot for attacks!
As Ren Ningyue's personal bodyguard, this man was very competent! Very professional! He could not only keep a close watch on all of Ye Tianfan's little movents from this position but also launch an attack at any ti, with Ye Tianfan unable to find an angle for any imdiate counterattack.
Ye Tianfan looked up at the man, a trace of admiration flashed in his eyes, and he smiled and said, "Very responsive, very professional! Are you from the Dragon Soul special forces? Or the Wolf Fang special forces?"
The man frowned slightly and did not answer Ye Tianfan's question, but upon hearing the nas of these two special forces, a hint of disdain flickered in his eyes.
This expression did not escape Ye Tianfan's notice. Both Dragon Soul and Wolf Fang were China's top elite units, the goal for which any Chinese soldier strived. Joining these special forces was the highest honor for Chinese soldiers! If this man cared nothing for these two units, then his identity was truly intriguing.
At this mont, Ren Ningyue revealed a faint smile on her face and said, "He is from the Celestial Punishnt Team."
"Celestial Punishnt Team?"
Ren Ningyue's voice was weak, yet it was like a bolt of lightning striking Ye Tianfan's heart.
"The Celestial Punishnt Team actually exists?" A trace of astonishnt flashed in Ye Tianfan's eyes. He couldn't help but glance at the man again.
The Celestial Punishnt Team!
It is an enigmatic organization perpetually shrouded in layers of mystery! Acting on behalf of heaven, in the darkest corners of China, fighting the fiercest enemies, it is also known as China's sharpest sword!
According to folklore, every mber of the Celestial Punishnt Team has astonishing abilities and extraordinary special powers. If the team truly exists, then it wouldn't be surprising at all for this man to carry the demon blade!
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Now Ren Ningyue had another bout of light coughing, and the handkerchief in her hand blood with spots of crimson, making Ye Tianfan involuntarily frown as Ren Ningyue was coughing blood!
"You are gravely ill." As he spoke, Ye Tianfan looked at Ren Ningyue with a grave expression, filled with doubts in his heart. Just who was this woman that she could command the protection of the Celestial Punishnt Team?
Even if the Ren family had a powerful background and strong capabilities, it would be utterly impossible to employ mbers of the Celestial Punishnt Team as personal bodyguards! Never mind the Celestial Punishnt Team, even elite squads like Dragon Soul and Wolf Fang would never take orders from the Ren family! They protect the nation! Not the Ren family!
Ren Ningyue smiled faintly, the smile carrying a slight hint of poignant beauty, and said, "I know."
"May I take your pulse?"
Ren Ningyue looked at Ye Tianfan and asked, "Are you a doctor?"
Ye Tianfan's lips curved slightly upwards, and he said, "A practitioner of Chinese dicine, I know a bit about dical skills."
Ren Ningyue still had a faint smile on her lips as she sized up Ye Tianfan, without any coy or pretentious manner, slowly placed her arm on the table, gently rolled up her sleeve, and said, "Then I'll trouble you."
But just as Ye Tianfan's fingers slowly touched Ren Ningyue's wrist, he felt that Ren Ningyue's skin was cold as ice, seemingly without any warmth!
What shocked Ye Tianfan even more was that he could not feel Ren Ningyue's pulse! It was as if the blood in Ren Ningyue's veins was static, without the slightest fluctuation!
What a strange anomaly!
Ye Tianfan couldn't help but knit his brows tightly. He had never encountered such a situation before! The dical expertise of the Ye Family had been passed down for millennia, and had long ranked at the top in China! As the Young Master of the Ye Family, Ye Tianfan had deeply inherited the family's true teachings from childhood; if even he can't find a pulse, then there certainly wouldn't be a second person in China who could.
Ye Tianfan was filled with astonishnt in his heart. How could a person have no pulse?
"Please give your other hand."
Hearing Ye Tianfan's words, Ren Ningyue obediently placed her other arm on the table.
This ti, the sa situation occurred again! It was still cold skin, and still no pulse could be felt! This sent a jolt through Ye Tianfan's heart! Unless the Ren Ningyue in front of him was a dead person! Otherwise, how could she have no pulse?
If it were an ordinary doctor, encountering such a situation would probably frighten them into a panic. No pulse ans a corpse! But Ye Tianfan was different. The Ye Family's dical knowledge had been passed down for a thousand years, having seen all kinds of diseases! Ren Ningyue's situation happened to be recorded in the Ye Family's ancient books!
To be precise, Ren Ningyue's situation was not a disease at all! But a matter of fate and chanism! However, Ye Tianfan was also unclear about what exactly this fate and chanism entailed, because the second half of that ancient book had been classified as forbidden by the Ye Family, and no one was allowed to view it! Ye Tianfan was no exception.
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Ren Ningyue had another bout of light coughing, and the white handkerchief in her hand was again stained with traces of crimson. She then gave Ye Tianfan a poignant smile and asked, "How is it? Can you diagnose what illness I have?"
Ye Tianfan lifted his fingers from Ren Ningyue's wrist. Although his heart was in utter shock, he maintained a composed look as he observed Ren Ningyue. Since this symptom had been classified into the Ye Family's forbidden ancient texts, it was naturally not ordinary!
Thinking this, Ye Tianfan sighed, feigning disappointnt as he shook his head and said, "Alas, it's all due to my lacking dical skills that I cannot discern what condition Miss Ren is suffering from."
Upon hearing this, Ren Ningyue smiled with relief and said, "It's not your fault. Many doctors are at a loss with my condition."
Ye Tianfan feigned regret and nodded, his eyes sweeping over Ren Ningyue's face. This Ren Ningyue was simply too mysterious, as if there were always layers of enigmatic veils about her, making her unfathomable. The young lady of the Ren family, personally protected by the people of the Celestial Punishnt Team, all of this was far too unusual!
And most of all, why would she appear here?
With Fang Zaitian's influence, there's no way he could invite soone from the Ren family, much less the eldest daughter of the Ren family! What ans did Fang Zaitian use?
