Yuan Xi did not intend to go home on the weekend, but Mother Yuan called her and forced her to go home.
She did not see her parents in the living room when she got home, and neither was the nanny, so she went upstairs.
The moment she went up, she saw Yuan Huan's room door open, and she could hear voices coming from inside.
Yuan Xi paused before she walked into the room. The moment she reached the door, she saw someone she did not know in the room.
It was a man in his fifties. He was dressed neatly in a Chinese tunic suit and looked like he came from the era of the Republic of China. He was talking to Father Yuan.
Just as Yuan Xi was wondering who he was, she caught sight of Yuan Huan sitting on the bed. She instantly froze on the spot as fear rose in her instincts.
When Mother Yuan saw her daughter, she walked out of the room and did not pay much attention to her strange behavior. She only said, "Your brother was released, but when your father found him, he became like this. I don't know what he experienced during this period of time."
Yuan Xi looked at Yuan Huan from afar. Although she could not see his expression, she could tell that he was different from a normal person.
She suddenly recalled what Huo Yao said two days ago.
After the man in the Chinese tunic suit checked Yuan Huan's pulse, he took out a long box and placed it on the bedside table. Then he took out a few things from the box.
Yuan Xi asked Mother Yuan softly when she saw what he was doing. "Mom, who is he?"
"He is a Chinese physician recommended by a friend of your father's. He is highly skilled, so we invited him over to take a look at your brother," replied Mother Yuan.
Yuan Xi clenched her fists and asked again. "Can... can Brother Yuan be cured?"
Mother Yuan shook her head and sighed softly. "I don't know. We can only try."
Yuan Xi did not probe further. Instead, her eyes landed on the Chinese physician who had already taken out the silver needles.
She did not know how Yuan Huan ended up like this, but she knew that it was the best outcome for everyone.
20 minutes later, the man who was performing acupuncture on Yuan Huan removed the silver needles from the acupuncture points on his head. Father Yuan hurriedly asked him. "How is it, Mr. Hou?"
Shangguan Hou did not speak. Looking at Yuan Hen's unfocused eyes, he frowned slightly and reached out to feel Yuan Hen's pulse.
Her pulse was just as he had observed. There was no change at all. It couldn't be any more normal.
The seemingly normal pulse was, in fact, the most abnormal.
Shangguan Hou loosened his grip and his heart sank slightly. Logically speaking, with his current acupuncture skills, he should have been able to wake Yuan Hen up, but now, there was no effect at all?
If Yuan Huan was in a delirious state due to a disease in his body, acupuncture would not have an immediate effect. However, Yuan Huan's situation was obviously not the case.
Perhaps someone had completely locked the nervous system in his brain.
What a brilliant technique to cripple someone without batting an eyelid … It seemed that this person was not only an expert in using needles, but he must also be related to the Shangguan Clan.
Did that person appear?
Shangguan Hou's eyes narrowed slightly. He disinfected the silver needles and put them away. After glancing at Yuan Huan, he said to Yuan Fu, "The situation is a little complicated."
When Father Yuan heard this, a trace of hope suddenly appeared in his eyes. "Do you mean that my son still has a chance to recover?"
When Yuan Xi saw this, she clenched her fists and instinctively looked at Shangguan Hou.
