Yan Qianyi continued probing, "Oh, is that so? I’ve seen her photo; she’s beautiful. It’s a pity that beauty often ets tragic fates."
Wen Shurou curled her lip, "Just average."
Being a woman herself, Wen Shurou’s sour tone did not escape Yan Qianyi’s ears.
She then said, "The relationship between Mu Chen and Nangong Chun must be quite good, right?"
Mu Ziqing had said that she had heard Mu Chen and Mu Feng arguing many tis, often ntioning Nangong Chun.
Thus, she speculated that there might be sothing between Mu Chen and Nangong Chun.
"Not at all! It’s just the relationship of brothers!" Wen Shurou’s smile could no longer be maintained, her eyebrows tightly furrowed, as if soone had stepped on her tail, suddenly flaring up.
"Divine Doctor, why are you asking about these family matters of ours? What does this have to do with you?"
Yan Qianyi explained, "Don’t get excited. I’m learning about these matters only to treat your husband; I have no interest in probing into your family’s private matters or in the secrets of powerful families."
"There’s nothing disgraceful about the secrets of the Mu family! Just treat the illness, what’s the use of asking these things?"
"Of course, it’s useful. Your husband suffers from a psychological disorder. I speculate he had a good relationship with his brothers, so witnessing the third young master’s fall must have left a trauma. Identifying the source of trauma will help treat him. Since I have promised your patriarch to co here, naturally, I must cure your husband’s illness."
"This... Oh, I see," Wen Shurou said sowhat awkwardly. "Yes, his relationship with his third brother is very good, but he doesn’t have any special feelings toward the third brother’s wife. You don’t need to ntion her in front of him, it’s pointless."
Yan Qianyi nodded slightly.
Wen Shurou forced a smile, "That... I’m sorry about earlier, it wasn’t intentional, just a reflex. Outside, those powerful ladies always like to gossip about our family, so I..."
"No worries, I understand. But if you want your husband to recover quickly, you need to cooperate with and not hide anything. The worst thing for a patient is to withhold information from the doctor. And as a doctor, it’s my basic professional ethic to protect patient’s privacy."
"Alright." Wen Shurou nodded, secretly relieving so tension.
She had been too impulsive when Nangong Chun was brought up and almost offended the Masked Divine Doctor.
If she really had offended the Masked Divine Doctor and the old master blad her, she would have been punished to kneel in the family temple.
Yan Qianyi then said, "You might think that not ntioning the third young master in front of your husband will prevent his episodes, but avoiding the issue won’t solve the problem, it will only worsen."
Wen Shurou blinked bewilderedly, "How can it get worse? As long as we don’t bring up the third brother, he’s quite normal."
"Psychological diseases are hidden deep within the heart. If not eradicated completely, letting it develop will inevitably worsen, eventually forming a severe ntal illness."
"ntal illness?! Is it that serious?"
"Of course, if you don’t believe it, you can look up information about psychological diseases online."
"I believe, Divine Doctor, I certainly trust what you say."
Though Wen Shurou was unhappy with the Masked Divine Doctor’s arrogance, she had absolute faith in the Divine Doctor’s dical skills.
After all, with just a brief apprenticeship under the Masked Divine Doctor, Yan Qianyi had already cured the old master’s longstanding leg issue.
"But you don’t need to worry too much. It’s been forming slowly over years; he definitely won’t have problems for these two years. But if not completely cured, in so years, I’m afraid..."
"Divine Doctor! Please, you must cure my husband’s illness! I’m begging you!"
She did not want her husband to turn into a madman later on.
"Of course, since I’ve promised, I will do my utmost. But psychological diseases are hard to treat, it’s all about the heart, so the patient’s family needs to cooperate with as well."
"Cooperate! I will definitely cooperate well!"
Behind her mask, Yan Qianyi’s lips curved into a slightly scheming smile.
Seeing Wen Shurou deep in thought, she knew the bait had been taken.
The car stopped at the entrance of the secondary house.
After getting out, Wen Shurou told Yan Qianyi that Mu Chen was waiting in his study upstairs.
With the experience from last ti, Wen Shurou did not follow her up this ti, but waited downstairs.
Yan Qianyi went to the study alone. Seeing the door ajar, she raised her hand and knocked lightly.
"Co in," ca Mu Chen’s voice from inside.
Yan Qianyi walked in and saw Mu Chen sitting on the sofa, reading financial news on the Light Screen.
He glanced up at her, "Make yourself comfortable."
"Sure, I’ll be leaving in half an hour."
Yan Qianyi, unapologetic, set her backpack down and sat on the sofa, projecting the Light Screen to start watching a drama.
Mu Chen was not as easily duped as Wen Shurou; she could not appear too eager.
If she remained still, Mu Chen would be the first to lose patience.
About ten minutes later, Mu Chen put down the Light Screen and asked her, "How many more tis do you need to co?"
Yan Qianyi smirked.
She knew that Mu Chen was more anxious than she was.
She continued to stare intensely at the Light Screen, pretending to be absorbed in her show, and casually replied, "A few more tis."
Mu Chen frowned, his tone impatient, "How many more specifically?"
Yan Qianyi turned to look at him, "Mr. Mu, I need to consider my reputation, right? If I only treat you once or twice and then say I can’t heal you, what would your family think of ?"
Mu Chen responded helplessly, "But don’t you think this is a waste of both our tis?"
"Not really." Yan Qianyi shrugged, "Sitting here playing, I still make money. After all, you still owe twenty million. This is my job."
"..." Mu Chen was speechless, his tone softening a bit, "But it really wastes my ti, so I hope we can end this treatnt quickly, okay?"
"To end it quickly, you either need to get better yourself or accept the real treatnt I offer; otherwise, we’ll just drag this out a few tis. No worries, continue watching your news, I’ll watch my drama, we won’t disturb each other."
After saying this, Yan Qianyi’s gaze returned to the Light Screen, muttering to herself, "It’s just getting to the exciting part."
Mu Chen furrowed his brow, "Why exactly do we need to drag this out a few tis?"
Yan Qianyi sighed, showing impatience at being interrupted, "Mr. Mu, I’m doing this for your own good. Can you please be patient?"
"For my good?" Mu Chen looked puzzled, scoffing, "Are you joking?"
If it really was for his good, she should imdiately clarify things with the old master!
Not like now, occasionally coming over to disturb him.
