Gu Chen’s hand, which had been moving the chess pieces, briefly paused. He lifted his head to glance at Song Fan, then withdrew his hand, seemingly contemplating his next move.
This subtle gesture grabbed everyone’s attention. Qi Shuo and the others had played chess with Gu Chen before and were accustomed to his rapid playstyle, leaving little room for thought.
Yet, he had now halted in the face of Song Fan. It hinted that Song Fan’s chess skills surpassed all of them combined.
However, Gu Chen remained paused for a few seconds before resuming his brisk pace.
The game had been ongoing for a considerable time, and they struggled to keep up with the speed of these two players. Even Qi Shuo found it challenging to grasp the current situation. It appeared that they were evenly matched, making it impossible to predict the ultimate victor.
Song Kai was on the verge of closing his eyes. Initially baffled by the game and now feeling drowsy from the black-and-white pieces, he couldn’t fathom the intricacies of their play.
Finally, Song Fan put down her chess piece and said, “It seems we can’t determine a winner today. How about we continue another time?”
Gu Chen nodded, replying, “Certainly.”
Both of them returned their chess pieces to their respective places, showing no desire to continue.
Xu Yuan expressed his confusion, “Why aren’t you continuing? It seems like a critical moment.”
.
Song Fan smiled and explained, “I didn’t expect Gu Chen and me to play so similarly. It’s as if we can anticipate each other’s moves, leaving us in a stalemate. There’s no way to declare a winner. It’s better to resume another day.”
This explanation left Xu Yuan astonished. Why didn’t I notice the similarity in their playing styles?
Just as he was about to comment, there was a knock at the door. It was the doctor, arriving for the daily checkup.
Gu Chen’s injury only required a bandage change, while Song Fan needed the doctor’s evaluation regarding when she could remove her cast.
Although she was hit on the leg by the falling wall, Song Fan only suffered a minor fracture. This is also the reason why Song Fan didn’t want to apply for leave; she didn’t consider this small injury significant at all.
However, Song Kai appeared quite anxious. In his view, such an injury should necessitate a month of recovery.
“The recovery speed of Miss Song is remarkable. In two days, we can remove the cast. If I hadn’t witnessed it, I wouldn’t have believed she could recover so swiftly,” the doctor exclaimed.
Song Fan smiled with a hint of pride. She instructed Su Yang to fetch a box of pills from home. Those were the remedies she had crafted herself. With these, her recovery would undoubtedly be accelerated.
“But we still need to take an X-ray to confirm that the bone has healed,” the doctor added.
With those words, the nurse wheeled the chair forward. The medical facilities in the villa were exceptionally comprehensive, including the capability to conduct X-rays downstairs.
Song Kai remained somewhat anxious and commented, “Please check thoroughly to confirm if it has truly healed.”
Song Fan maintained an indifferent expression. She diligently monitored her condition daily and was well aware of her physical state.
During her time at Gu Chen’s house, she had been eating and drinking well, resulting in a vibrant and healthy complexion.
The doctor who had been sent for was taken aback. “Miss Song’s bones have nearly fully healed. It’s nothing short of a medical miracle.”
Gu Chen turned his gaze toward Song Fan and inquired, “Did you create this medication yourself?”
“Yes, it’s a pill I formulated in the past. It’s highly beneficial for the body’s recovery.” Song Fan retrieved the box and offered, “Would you like one?”
Gu Chen picked one up and swallowed it without hesitation, leaving Qi Shuo astonished.
Gu Chen had always been meticulous about what he consumed, even preparing his water. The fact that he took Song Fan’s pill was nothing short of astonishing.
The doctor inspected the pill in Song Fan’s hand and asked, “Miss Song, may I take one for research?”
“I can write you the prescription right now. You don’t need to analyze it on your own,” Song Fan replied.
This response took the doctor by surprise. In his experience, doctors typically guarded their prescriptions as trade secrets, for sharing them would negate their uniqueness. He hadn’t anticipated Song Fan’s generosity and willingness to provide the prescription.
Song Fan followed through on her words. She borrowed Gu Chen’s pen and transcribed the prescription onto a sheet of paper. She handed it over and added, “You can adjust the dosage as needed, but all the necessary herbs are listed.”
Tears welled up in the doctor’s eyes as he looked at Song Fan. “Miss Song, I will use this prescription for more patients. You are truly selfless. On behalf of those patients, thank you..”
