Subsequently, Ye Ling sat by the bedside, monitoring Min Nan’s pulse.
Li Bin was taken aback by Ye Ling’s sudden change in expression. He anxiously inquired, “Are the injuries severe?”
Ye Ling shook her head slowly and hesitated before saying, “It seems like he’s been poisoned. ”
Min Nan’s pulse was in disarray, and the energies within his body clashed. In traditional Chinese medicine, this was typically indicative of poisoning.
“Poisoned?” Li Bin struggled to comprehend. “What should we do then? Is he at risk of dying?
“He won’t die. Although I don’t know what poison he’s been poisoned with, it’s not strong. After he was poisoned, he fought with so many people. He was in a state of panic, which was why he suddenly fainted. Brother Li Bin, please go out for a while. I have to treat him.”
Ye Ling thought that she would need to retrieve the herbs from the small world later. She hastened Li Bin’s departure. However, before Li Bin left, she couldn’t resist asking, “By the way, do you know Brother Min Nan?”
Li Bin grinned. “Of course. Min Nan and I have been childhood friends.” Ye Ling’s lingering doubts gradually dissipated.
At first, she was very surprised that Min Nan would suddenly appear. Now, it seemed that when she asked Li Bin for help, Li Bin must have told Min Nan about her. Min Nan knew that Wang Gang might want to cause trouble for her today, so he rushed over in time.
Ye Ling turned to look at Min Nan on the bed. She initially wished to avoid further burdening him, fearing their entanglement might grow. But now, circumstances had reversed, and he was the one aiding her.
After Li Bin left, Ye Ling retrieved a silver needle and prepared to administer acupuncture to Min Nan.
Suddenlv. Ye Ling recognized a foolish oversight.
She swiftly rushed out of the room but failed to locate Li Bin. She remained unaware of his whereabouts.
Upon returning to the room, Ye Ling stood by the bedside, observing Min Nan’s hesitation. Finally, she seemed resolute. Gritting her teeth, she reached for Min Nan’s collar.
While gender should not affect a doctor’s treatment, Ye Ling still felt slightly uncomfortable.
She removed Min Nan’s clothes and noticed a deep wound on his left arm. The wound seemed to have been soaked by rain for an extended period, with the flesh around the edges appearing pale.
Ye Ling was momentarily stunned, urgently examining the wound.
During the previous pulse assessment, Ye Ling had only given a cursory glance at Min Nan’s condition. She had assumed his weakness was related to poisoning.
She did not expect that part of the reason for Min Nan’s weakness was due to excessive blood loss.
Ye Ling picked up a silver needle, inserting it into several key points to prevent the poison from spreading. Subsequently, she retrieved alcohol, meticulously disinfecting Min Nan’s wound.
The unconscious Min Nan experienced a surge of pain, furrowing his brow. Ye Ling immediately murmured, “It’ll be alright soon, it’ll be alright…”
Min Nan seemed to have heard Ye Ling’s words, and his tightly knitted brows relaxed slightly.
After tending to the wound, Ye Ling noticed Min Nan remained unconscious. She placed a piece of gauze over his eyes. Swiftly entering the small world, she gathered herbs and fetched water from the stream.
Min Nan found himself in a hazy state. He suddenly detected a pungent odor, the intense and bitter scent of herbs arousing his senses. He gradually opened his eyes, only to find his vision obscured.
After a while, Min Nan realized his eyes were covered. While he found this odd, he temporarily ignored the gauze over his eyes.
Min Nan recalled his state before losing consciousness, deducing that Ye Ling had likely brought him to her dorm to tend to his injuries.
Was he now lying on Ye Ling’s bed? Min Nan felt a sense of oddity. Considering this, he carefully sniffed. Indeed, he detected a faint fragrance, a sweet milk scent, delicate and subtle.
This scent belonged to Ye Ling.
With this realization, Min Nan’s mind sparked with fireworks. His skin against the blanket and sheets felt as if it were being scalded, and his body temperature gradually rose.
Not far away, Ye Ling was holding a cattail leaf fan and slowly shaking it. There was medicine boiling on the stove. She looked up from time to time to glance at Min Nan on the bed.
What if Min Nan still did not wake up at night? She couldn’t possibly let him sleep on her bed, right?
Ye Ling was troubled for a while. When she saw that the medicine was ready, she filtered the medicine out and walked to the bed with the medicine bowl..
