Whether Wen Yi's treatment method had any scientific basis was still debatable. Ye Huanyan had originally planned to ignore her and let her do whatever she wanted. However, on the night of the treatment, just as they entered the room, Wen Yi knocked on the door. "I've prepared a room for you. It's right next to yours and mine."
After that, it was endless treatment and separation.
"It's said that when it comes to marriage, it's the father who can't bear to part with his daughter. Why is my family's responsibility all on my mother?
Ye Huanyan frowned and turned to look at Ling Han. "Do you think my mother will rush in if I ignore her like this?"
"She won't." Ling Han shook his head. "But it's very likely that your mother will prick me until I can't get up during tomorrow's acupuncture session."
Ye Huanyan's mouth twitched. She sighed and got off the bed. "Then forget it. For the sake of the future, bear with it."
Ling Han smiled. He leaned against the bed and held her hand. He pulled her to his chest and planted a gentle kiss on her forehead. "Everything will be fine."
Ye Huanyan nodded. "Yes, everything will be fine."
When Ye Huanyan left the room, she saw Wen Yi walking past her with a bamboo basket in her hand.
"What's this?"
"Don't move." Wen Yi slapped her hand away. "It's biting you."
"It's biting?" Ye Huanyan exclaimed. "Mom, what are you doing?"
"It's late. Go to bed."
Ye Huanyan wanted to follow her in, but Wen Yi had already closed the door. She pushed, but to no avail. The door was locked from the inside.
Not long after, a muffled groan came from inside.
Ye Huanyan shouted anxiously, "Ling Han, are you okay?"
She was met with silence in the room.
She quickly knocked on the door. Finally, Ling Han's voice came from inside the room. "I'm fine."
It didn't sound like he was fine. Ye Huanyan was about to continue pounding on the door when she was interrupted by a voice behind her. "Sister Yan Yan."
When he turned around, he saw Ling Zhan standing behind him. She was wearing a thick nightgown, but in this snowy weather, she still looked thin standing in the corridor.
"Oh my god, aren't you afraid of catching a cold by running out like this?"
Ye Huanyan urged him, "Hurry up and go inside."
"I'm not cold."
"I feel cold just by looking at you."
Ye Huanyan pushed him and looked back at the door with some hesitation. In the end, she gritted her teeth, steeled her heart, and pushed Ling Zhan into the opposite room.
"Sister Yan Yan, have a seat. I'll get you a cup of hot chocolate."
There weren't any bottles or jars in this room, so it was obvious that they were brought in by Ling Zhan's personal luggage.
Ye Huanyan looked around and saw a small microwave heater. She asked curiously, "You only brought a box with these coffee machines in it. Where's your luggage?"
"My luggage was sent back. It should arrive tomorrow. This time, there were a lot of things, so I couldn't bring them back myself."
Ling Zhan's back was facing Ye Huanyan as she busied herself in front of the heater.
The smell of hot chocolate wafted through the room.
"How long do you plan to stay this time? Will your dad and the others come back for the New Year? And Ling Li and Ling Xue? I haven't seen them in a long time. "
"I plan to tidy up West Court."
Ling Zhan's back paused slightly. She asked hesitantly, "Do you think it'll be faster to get a few people to help tidy up?"
"West Court?" Ye Huanyan was stunned. "Aren't you used to living here? West Court has been abandoned for a long time. "
"It's pretty good here. It's just that it's a little troublesome to stay here for a long time."
"Why would it be troublesome?"
Ye Huanyan smiled nonchalantly. "It's pretty good to eat and chat together. Do you think it's troublesome to have an extra pair of chopsticks?"
"I plan to come back and stay for a long time," Ling Zhan suddenly interrupted Ye Huanyan.
"Stay for a long time?"
"I don't plan to leave."
"What do you mean?"
"There's an academic conference in China. After attending it, I'll decide whether to stay in China to do research. If I want to do research, it'll take a long time."
"So you're saying that from now on … you'll be living in West Court?"
Ye Huanyan finally reacted.
Ling Zhan turned around and looked at Ye Huanyan seriously. "Sister Yan Yan, don't you want me to come back?"
Ye Huanyan's expression froze. "No, that's not what I meant."
"…"
"Of course it's good that you're back. I'm just thinking that West Court is so big that it'll take a lot of effort to tidy it up. I don't feel safe letting the housekeeping company outside do the cleaning. Many of the things in there are antiques. If one of them breaks, it'll be a disservice to the ancestors. That's why I'm worried."
Ling Zhan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. "It's fine. I'm going to put the antiques in the storage room tomorrow. In the future, I'll just decorate the place with normal things."
"Okay. My fourth sister should be able to help tomorrow."
Ye Huanyan smiled. "I heard that she majored in the study of treasures in university. She's very knowledgeable about how to collect these things."
"Fourth sister?" Ling Zhan hesitated for a few seconds. "Ah, it's Sister Yingxiang. Why do you call her fourth sister?"
"Well, we were the ones who were monitoring …"
Ye Huanyan was slightly stunned and suddenly stopped talking. After a while, she said, "It's just a group of close sisters calling each other that. It's nothing."
Ling Han didn't ask any more questions. He sprinkled crushed peanuts on top of the chocolate and brought it to Ye Huanyan. "The chocolate is ready. Try it."
Ye Huanyan sniffed. "It smells good."
Ling Han sat across from the coffee table and drank water. The dense steam blurred his vision, but he could clearly see Ye Huanyan's previous appearance through the blurriness.
"By the way, I haven't asked you yet. How did you recognize me at a glance at the door? I'm not the same as before. "
"You're the same as before."
Ling Zhan's answer was unexpected.
Ye Huanyan put down the chocolate cup and raised her eyebrows. "Are you trying to fool me again? Ling Han didn't recognize me the first time we met. "
"I'm different from him."
Ling Zhan lowered his head and hid his gaze. He said lightly, "Some people should be recognized at a glance, no matter what they look like."
Ye Huanyan was slightly stunned.
At this time, a certain someone who was enduring great suffering had cold sweat on his face. He looked up at the ceiling and clenched the sheets under him. Blue veins popped out on his forehead as he tried to suppress the muffled groan coming out of his mouth.
"If it's really painful, you can't shout."
Wen Yi sat at the side, quietly looking at the 'masterpiece' on his legs — a blue and white python was coiling around the base of Ling Han's thighs, sticking out its red tongue as it contracted its body with all its might, as if it wanted to crush him.
"Because if you shout, Yan Yan will definitely come in. If she sees me treating you like this, she won't agree to continue. Your last one percent of hope will be gone."
"Mm … I know." He panted heavily and tried to stay calm as he responded to Wen Yi.
"You're quite brave. You can still talk in this situation."
Wen Yi looked at him with appreciation.
