"There are many causes of neuralgia, but Min Yu's is caused by external injuries," said Huo Yao slowly.
Zhuo Yun scratched his head. "But he doesn't have any external injuries."
Min Yu had been recuperating and had not even resorted to violence recently.
"It's a hidden complication," said Huo Yao calmly.
Then she turned to face Min Yu. She lifted his blanket and pressed several acupuncture points on his chest with her slender fingers. "Do you feel more pain in these areas?"
Min Yu snorted. He did not speak or nod, but it was obvious from his expression.
Huo Yao withdrew her hand.
Old Mr. Pei could not help sighing in his heart when he saw how Huo Yao was able to pinpoint the source of Min Yu's illness. He had assumed that she was an apothecary who was well-versed in medicine. However, it seemed like... her medical skills were not mediocre either.
"Acupuncture is the best way to treat Young Master Min's condition. But I only tried to use acupuncture, and it made his pain worse, so I didn't dare to use acupuncture again. Also, I can't force him to take painkillers. I don't want to trigger his old illness," said Old Mr. Pei with a bitter smile.
Hence, he was frowning.
Huo Yao went quiet for a few seconds. She looked at Min Yu and did not explain further. Instead, she said, "Bear with it a little longer. I'm going back to get something."
Min Yu's lips turned slightly red as he bit them. He smiled faintly. Even though his face was pale, he looked seductive. "Okay."
Huo Yao narrowed her eyes and walked out.
When Zhuo Yun saw this, he wanted to follow, but in the end, he stopped and looked at his master. When he saw that there was a smile on his master's lips, he couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.
Min Yu was clearly not feeling well, but he was still holding on.
He hoped that Miss Huo would be able to relieve Min Yu's pain later.
Huo Yao went home and greeted Huo Tingrui, Huo Xiang, and her father in the living room before heading upstairs.
"Yaoyao, is your mother not coming home tonight?" asked Huo Jinyan. He knew that his wife and daughter were having dinner with friends.
Huo Yao had just taken a step up the stairs when she heard her father's question. She paused and turned to look at him. She asked quizzically. "Isn't Mom home already?"
Huo Jinyan blinked. "Nope."
"Ah … She just dropped me off. Didn't she enter the house?"
Huo Jinyan thought about it and took out his phone. "I'll call and ask."
Huo Yao nodded. She was not worried that something bad would happen, so she did not say anything else and hurried upstairs.
Huo Yao went back to her room and took out the box containing the silver needles. Then she hurried downstairs.
"Yao, are you going out again?" Huo Tingrui stopped her in surprise.
"Uh huh. Something came up. I'll be back soon." Huo Yao nodded. She turned to look at her father and asked him. "Where did Mom go?"
Huo Jinyan recalled what his wife had said over the phone and said, "She went to the supermarket to buy something."
"Alright. Dad, rest early. I'll be heading out now." Huo Yao did not probe further.
Huo Tingrui stood up and asked, "Why are you in such a hurry? Where were they going? Second Brother will take you there? "
"It's fine. It's next door," said Huo Yao as she waved her hand.
Before long, she walked out of the house. Before Huo Tingrui could react, he heard the door close.
Huo Tingrui went speechless.
