Chapter 272 - Using the Heart of a Small Person to Measure the Heart of a Gentleman
With the chill gone, the grand cycle of the five elements, sustained by the five great Origins, began to expand, spreading throughout He Huiling's body.
It continuously nourished He Yuexin's body, revitalizing her from within.
As the elemental attributes dispersed within He Yuexin's body, she instantly felt a warm, comforting sensation enveloping her.
Her body's three great yin meridians were infiltrated and claimed by the elemental forces.
Before long, He Yuexin's shivering ceased, her cries of cold quieted, and her complexion took on a healthy, rosy hue as she appeared to sleep serenely.
Jiang Hao checked her pulse, gave a satisfied nod, and swiftly retracted the nine Icy Jade Needles.
He then turned and exited the tent, addressing Soong Wan without turning back.
“Wan'er, I've rectified your aunt's condition. I'll take my leave now.”
With that, Jiang Hao departed.
Soong Wan observed her mother's body grow warm, her cheeks flush with color, and her trembling stop.
“Oh! Jiang Hao, but when will my mother awaken…”
Before Soong Wan could finish her plea, a hand covered her mouth!
?To her astonishment, it was her mother!
Her mother looked at her with a mix of embarrassment and annoyance, glaring sternly at Soong Wan.
Hearing the disturbance, Jiang Hao couldn't help but smile.
?He had known all along that He Mu was awake; her continued pretense was simply due to the awkwardness of his presence.
……
Outside, Soong Wanzhong paced anxiously, unable to still his nerves.
Meanwhile, the young doctor who had earlier challenged Jiang Hao was losing his patience.
?Displeased with Jiang Hao's prior conduct, he muttered sarcastically, “A disease we couldn't cure, and this young upstart thinks he can? What a complete waste of time!”
Soong Wanzhong overheard the remark and felt a surge of irritation. He fixed Little Chen with an icy stare.
The other physicians, sensing the tension, quickly distanced themselves from the scene, eager to avoid any association with the discontent.
Just then, the tightly closed door swung open.
Jiang Hao emerged from within!
Immediately, all eyes were drawn to him. Soong Wanzhong quickly approached, his voice tinged with urgency.
“Nephew, how is your aunt doing?”
Jiang Hao spared a brief glance at Xiao Chen, choosing to disregard him. He had overheard Xiao Chen's murmuring as well!
With a reassuring smile, Jiang Hao addressed the anxious Soong Wanzhong.
“Uncle, rest assured. Auntie is out of danger, and I've resolved her health issue!”
Hearing this, Soong Wanzhong's face lit up with ecstatic relief, while the others were taken aback.
They had previously sought information about the Three Yin Absolute Meridian from an elder who was familiar with the condition.
They were well aware of the gravity of such a constitution!
And now, someone had managed to cure it!
But in the midst of this revelation, a skeptical mutter disrupted the mood, drawing looks from the crowd.
“Who can say if it's real or not? Just smoke and mirrors!”
Xiao Chen mumbled under his breath, head bowed.
Jiang Hao felt a twinge of annoyance. He was ready to discipline this man who had repeatedly irked him.
Before Jiang Hao could act, however, Soong Wanzhong's anger flared.
“Da Hai, please escort Mr. Chen out and ensure he's well taken care of!”
At that moment, the middle-aged man known to Soong Wan as Uncle Hai, stepped forward.
“Yes, sir!”
He approached Xiao Chen and gestured politely.
“Mr. Chen, this way, please.”
