  After hearing Xu Yi's words, Jing Wenming was stunned for a moment, quickly putting down the shirt that had been rolled up on his mother's body, and then put on a suit to cover her, not forgetting to glare at Xu Yi fiercely.

  Chai Yingchun's phone rang again, Jing Minwen grabbed the phone and took a look, immediately answering it, "Third Uncle, we're at the hotel now, let's help Xu Yi'an settle in before heading over?"

  "It's all right, you guys are busy, no rush, I just wanted to let you know that everything is ready at home."

  A man's voice came out of the loudspeaker.

  "Xu Yi, thank you so much today."

  Chai Yingchun looked into Xu Yi's eyes, "If it weren't for you today, Aunt might have died from holding her breath."

  "Auntie, no need to thank me, this is what I should do."

  Xu nodded, his eyes scanning the mass that Chai Yingchun had just spat out. His brow furrowed, "Auntie, this lump of cold energy has been accumulating in your body for many years. Just now, when you were emotionally agitated, it blocked your heart orifice. Now I've helped you force it out."

  "However, the cold air in your body is still very heavy, and it's hard to drive it out with just medicine."

  "Xu Yi, are you going to help my mom with acupuncture?"

  Jing Mingwen's eyes widened in surprise, her face flushing red. "Is it like the acupuncture I had before?"

  Chai Yingchun was also stunned, just now his daughter had already said it in great detail, Xu Yi gave her an injection and she wasn't wearing any clothes from head to toe. If it were just a simple doctor-patient relationship, that would be fine, but tricking this kid who is going to be his future son-in-law? But the illness couldn't be left untreated either.

  "Acupuncture is definitely necessary, and Auntie's internal cold energy is even worse than yours. Fortunately, I came this time, otherwise, if it dragged on for a few more months, it would have become a terminal illness. So, the acupuncture session this time will be a bit long and very exhausting."

  Xu's face revealed a hint of bitter smile, if it wasn't necessary, he wouldn't want to give his future mother-in-law acupuncture either, even if it was just to satisfy his curiosity, it would still completely exhaust the true energy in his dantian. Now, however, this was their last chance, and if they let those cold yin energies seep into her five viscera and six bowels, not even a god could save her.

  Jing Wen's pretty face sank, with her boyfriend on one side and her mother on the other, she didn't know what to do either. Was she supposed to just stand by and watch her mother be tortured by illness?

  "But Auntie just needs to show her back."

  Xu Yi looked at Jing Wen's gloomy face and hastily explained, "It's just a few more times, that's all."

  "That's settled then. We'll start the acupuncture treatment tonight." Jing Xuan gave Xu Yi a sideways glance, "Aren't you going to write the prescription? Do I need to grind the ink for you?"

  "This is going, this is going." Xu was speechless. Nima, Master Xiao's acupuncture session was like a life-and-death struggle, you think it's easy? It's as if I, Master Xiao, had taken advantage of something big.

  "Wenwen, how can you speak to Xi Yi like that? As a girl, you should be gentle and considerate. How can you be so arrogant and bossy?"

  Chai Yingchun glared at her daughter with a scolding expression, knowing that she was feeling uncomfortable. Anyone in her daughter's position would feel the same way, but what could be done about it? It was like when a pregnant woman went to the hospital to give birth and found out there was only one male doctor on duty - was she supposed to just not have the baby then?

  "Mom, I know."

  Jing Wen didn't deliberately twist her waist, and her eyes inadvertently swept across the ground. She couldn't help but stare blankly for a moment, "Mom, the phlegm you just spat out is so big and hard, how can it be gone in an instant?"

  "It has turned into air, it was originally condensed cold air."

  Xu Yi lowered his head and wrote the prescription, without lifting his head, he replied, "Don't you feel that the air in this room is colder than before?"

  "Huh, I didn't know if you didn't say it, but it's really a bit colder than just now." Jing Wenwen nodded and picked up his phone to take a look, "Xu Yi, hurry up, we still need to go to the pharmacy later, Grandpa's house is in Xifeng District."

  "Alright, alright, it's fine."

  Xu twisted his neck, put down the pen in his hand, picked up the prescription he had just written, "This medicine is the first course of treatment. This prescription is for two doses of decoction. After taking two doses, adjust the prescription and dosage according to the pulse diagnosis based on the specific condition."

  "Go ahead, do as you say."

  Jing Wen snatched the prescription from Xu Yi's hand, "Alright, you go take a bath and clean yourself up first. I'll go to the Chinese medicine shop with mom to get the medicine."

  "Xu Yi, you take a rest, we two will go get the medicine."

  Chai Yingchun smiled and nodded at Xu Yi, her attitude much more sincere than when they had just met in the afternoon. Xu Yi nodded slightly, seeing them off at the door, and as soon as he closed it, he suddenly remembered something. "Wenwen, remember to borrow a set of silver needles, make sure it's a complete set, if not, at least seventy needles, otherwise the effect of acupuncture will be much worse."

  "Alright, I know, now go and give yourself a good wash."

  Jing Wen waved his hand and walked towards the elevator with Chai Yingchun's arm, saying in a low voice, "Mom, don't associate with Qu Yingfei again, okay? With Xu Yi there, he definitely won't dare to come and bother you."

  Chai Yingchun's old face turned red, and his expression was somewhat unnatural as he nodded, "Girl, don't worry, this time you scolded your mom awake. In the past, she always kept deceiving herself that he would get a divorce and then marry me, having had more than ten years of dreams, it's time to wake up."

  "I'm just afraid that my family will be unhappy."

  Jing Minwen didn't say anything, the elevator arrived.

  After the mother and daughter got out of the hotel and into the car, Jing Mingwen's face sank. "Mom, do you know why I acted so coquettishly in front of Xu Yi? It was to seduce him into liking me."

  Chai Yingchun was taken aback by the words, and her heart vaguely understood something. Her eyes suddenly became gentle, "Foolish girl, is it worth it? Mom's already old, this life will just pass like this, but you're still young, with a beautiful future ahead."

  "Mom, I just want to make Xu Yi like me. The power of the Xu family is not small in Jiangnan Province, who dares to bully Xu Yi's mother-in-law?"

  Jing Minwen continued to speak, "I deceived him into cooperating with our Jing family, just to pull him in and tell that old official at home that his son's future is for him to create himself, let him use his own money to pave the way, rather than using my mother's body as a substitute!"

  "If he dares to make trouble, Xu Yi has plenty of ways to make the old official wish he were dead."

  "Silly girl, what's the point of this again? Your dad is his own flesh and blood after all." Chai Yingchun sighed and started the car. "By the way, do you have any other plans?"

  Jing Mingwen didn't say a word, turned his head to look out the car window, the streets were bustling with cars and people rushing to and fro, everyone was striving for their own goals, what about his?

  Everyone in the family knows about Mom's private affair with Qu Yingfei, but Lao Guan Mi didn't blow up and instead often lets Mom do some things that are hard for her to mention. Is it really like she said, having slept with Qu Yingfei? What about Lu Yifei, the fat Vice Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee?

  Third Uncle was able to promote the vice mayor, Lu Yifei had cast a very crucial vote, Lao Guan Mi didn't have such a big face, wasn't it his mother who used her body to exchange for his support?

  The difference between Lu Yifei and Qu Yingfei is that Lu Yifei is a fat man, while Qu Yingfei looks handsome. Of course, another aspect is that Mom has an old relationship with Qu Yingfei.

  Jing Wen didn't want to let Xu Yi know about the ugly things going on in her family, afraid that if Xu Yi found out, she would dislike herself and ignore her from then on. Yet, she still wanted to find an opportunity to make her mother take the initiative to make a choice once.

  If mom boldly chooses the life she wants, Jing Mingwen will go all out to support her. If mom would rather continue to sink, then from now on she will never come back to this home again.

  "Daughter, mom knows what you're thinking."

  Chai Yingchun let out a deep sigh, "You have to understand, someone like Xu Yi from this kind of family, their marriage is not something they decide for themselves. Since they were born into that kind of family, this is their responsibility, this is their fate. Mom doesn't want to use her own love and happiness as a plug, you will regret it in the future."

  "Mom, I know what you want to say."

  Jing Wen bit her lip tightly, two large tears rolling in her eye sockets. "If Xu Yi can't marry me, that's even better. He'll feel guilty towards me and won't let anyone bully us mother and daughter."

  "Mom, just tell me your choice and don't worry about anything else, I've got everything planned out."

  Chai Yingchun fell silent, Jing Wenwen looked out the window, but the corner of her eye was always paying attention to her mother's expression. Seeing that she had no reaction for a long time, her heart slowly sank. Her plan wasn't supposed to be like this, it's just that today when Xu Yi mentioned her mother's illness, the anger that had been accumulating in her heart for a long time suddenly burst out.

  If we follow the original plan, I need to get in bed with Xu Yi, it's best if I ruin his child first, then tell him about the whole plan step by step, and by that time, Xu Yi will have no choice but to help.

  But now all of this has changed, Chai Yingchun's illness is much worse than expected, and Qu Yangfei's stinky man actually wants to take advantage of her during her miscarriage and postpartum recovery. This beastly behavior almost made Jing Xianwen furious.

  Moreover, Xu Yi's words made Jing Xunwen realize that her mother's illness was already very serious. If she had already reached the point of no return, then even if they managed to save her from suffering, what would be the point?

  Tears slowly fell from the eye sockets, Jing Wen tightly bit his lip, and his heart was bleeding drop by drop. Mom, how can I save you? Qu Yingfei, that shameless man, only coveted your body, did you know he even thought of taking advantage of me?

  "Alright, girl, I'll listen to you. Anyway, mom has saved several million over the years, if things really don't work out, we mother and daughter can just leave Jiangnan and go live in a strange place."

  Chai Yingchun gently stepped on the brake, and the BMW slowly pulled over to the side of the road. She turned her head to look at her daughter, tears streaming down her face. The mother and daughter tightly hugged each other, wailing loudly.
