Lin Yuanshan stood as if frozen, unconsciously holding his breath.
His eyes were fixed intently on Chen Nan, his trembling pupils revealing the deep-seated nervousness and unease within him.
Lin Xue was the sa, her usually cool and clear eyes now filled with tension and expectation, subconsciously biting her lower lip, her hands unconsciously tightening the hem of her skirt, as if this would grasp a sliver of hope.
Seeing the father and daughter's anxious yet hopeful eyes, Chen Nan felt a tightening in his heart and sighed helplessly, slowly starting, "Mr. Lin, Miss Lin, to be honest, Miss Lin's condition is extrely unusual."
He slightly furrowed his brows, his eyes revealing a solemn contemplation, "The Cold Poison in her body, originating from the womb, can rightly be called a congenital condition."
"Though I have cured many difficult and complicated diseases since I began practicing dicine, I have never encountered a case like Miss Lin's."
Chen Nan's look carried a hint of apology as he gazed at Lin Yuanshan and Lin Xue: "Therefore, I truly cannot assert that I can definitely cure Miss Lin."
In fact.
With Chen Nan's dical expertise, ordinary diseases indeed seed as easy as reaching into a bag and pulling sothing out, instantly cured.
But Lin Xue's congenital Cold Poison was too peculiar in its origin, already a problem from within the womb, and over the years, it had fused deeply with Lin Xue's body, firmly rooted.
Even Chen Nan, faced with such a vexing condition, could not help but feel overwheld, with no great confidence.
Loss and disappointnt were evident in Lin Yuanshan's eyes.
He had hoped that once Chen Nan identified his daughter's illness, a targeted treatnt could be applied.
But unexpectedly, even he was at a loss!
"You just aren't one hundred percent sure you can cure , right?" Lin Xue, unwilling to accept this, looked toward Chen Nan, her eyes brimming with tears.
She was already fed up with the pain brought by the Cold Poison!
At this mont.
Lin Xue's thoughts involuntarily drifted back to those long years tornted by the Cold Poison.
Every deep night, when silence enveloped everything, the Cold Poison would awaken like a devil hiding in the darkness, ruthlessly gnawing at her body.
Initially, it was just a slight chill emanating from the depths of her bones, as if countless tiny ice needles were slowly piercing her skin.
As ti passed, the chill grew stronger and gradually spread throughout her body, numbing her limbs, making her lose sensation.
Whenever the Cold Poison afflicted her, she would curl up in her bed, tightly wrapped in thick quilts.
But the cold still penetrated everywhere, as if she were in a bitterly cold land of ice and snow.
In school, while her classmates ran and played on the playground, enjoying the vitality of youth, she could only sit alone in a corner, watching their laughter and fun, full of envy.
Sotis, she mustered the courage to try to join them, but the Cold Poison would strike unwittingly, causing her to suddenly turn pale and tremble in front of everyone, attracting strange looks from her classmates.
And those hospital wards, with the acrid sll of disinfectant perating every inch of air.
She lay in the hospital bed countless tis, watching the doctors' helpless expressions, listening to their hopeless diagnoses, wild despair growing in her heart like weeds.
Every failed treatnt felt like a heavy hamr, brutally smashing down on her heart.
"I really can't stand these days anymore!" Lin Xue's eyes were red, her voice slightly trembling: "Mr. Chen, I beg you, no matter how difficult it is, please give it a try. As long as it can release
from this tornt, I am willing to do anything."
Her eyes were filled with pleading, a deep desire for relief from soone who had been tornted by illness for many years.
Lin Yuanshan looked at his daughter's painful expression, feeling as if his heart was being torn apart.
He turned his head, looked at Chen Nan, his eyes carrying a hint of begging: "Mr. Chen, Xue'er has suffered too much. For so many years, she has never lived like a normal child."
"Your dical skill is profound, even if there is just a glimr of hope, please save her."
Chen Nan took a deep breath and slowly exhaled a breath of stale air.
In an instant, the hesitation and conflict in his eyes completely faded away, replaced by a firm resolve as he stated decisively: "Since Mr. Lin and Ms. Lin trust , then I will do my utmost to try to remove the Cold Poison from Ms. Lin's body!"
As soon as these words were spoken.
Hope and joy uncontrollably ignited in the eyes of Lin Yuanshan and Lin Xue.
Their eyes, which had been dimd by despair, now shimred like bright stars.
Chen Nan's expression beca serious, he looked at Lin Yuanshan and calmly said: "Mr. Lin, please have your housekeeper go to the supermarket and buy a large quantity of ice, the more the better."
Although Lin Yuanshan was full of doubts, not understanding the intention behind Chen Nan's actions, he trusted him and called the housekeeper to go and buy the ice.
Then, Chen Nan turned his gaze to Lin Xue, and asked gently, "Ms. Lin, does your bathroom have a bathtub?"
Lin Xue nodded slightly, and responded softly, "Yes, it does."
Lin Yuanshan added an explanation on the side: "Xue'er has been plagued by this Cold Poison since she was young, and her days have been unbearably hard."
"In order to make her feel better when the Cold Poison flares up, we specifically equipped every residence with a large bathtub, thinking that soaking in a hot bath would help dispel the cold inside her body during flair-ups."
Upon hearing this, Chen Nan shook his head helplessly, soberly correcting him, "Mr. Lin, this thod has been wrong from the beginning."
"There is a critical taboo when Cold Poison flares up, one must not soak in hot water."
"Cold Poison and heat counteract each other; alternating hot and cold stimulation not only fails to alleviate the pain but actually makes the patient's discomfort multiply."
"Furthermore, as long as the Cold Poison in Ms. Lin's body is not completely eradicated, the warm air brought by hot baths will be instantly devoured by the coldness inside."
"It will not only fail to ease, but also intensify the cold inside, exacerbating the condition!"
"The best thod is to soak in an ice bath during a flare-up of Cold Poison, which can effectively alleviate the pain brought by the Cold Poison."
Upon hearing this, the father and daughter's expressions changed sharply, their eyes revealing a helpless sentint.
They had never imagined that the thod they used to alleviate the illness would backfire and worsen the condition!
Recollecting himself, Lin Yuanshan couldn't help but sigh: "If only we had t Chen sooner, how could Xue'er have endured so much suffering?!"
Chen Nan managed a weak smile, then looked at Lin Xue: "Ms. Lin, lead
to your bedroom."
"Let's prepare the water in advance. You take an ice bath, which will activate the Cold Poison in your body, and I will try to expel the Cold Poison from your body through massage."
