381: Chapter 241: Dark Woe_2 381: Chapter 241: Dark Woe_2 Ran Yunsheng felt the strength in Ran Yan’s hand as he held onto him and listened to her soothing words, gradually feeling a little strength returning to his own body.
“I understand,” his voice hoarse, he closed his eyes and refused to let the tears fall anymore, “I only realize now that her coming to from thousands of miles away wasn’t to elope with , but just…
just to…”
Ran Yunsheng’s voice caught in his throat and he could not continue.
Qi Ningjun has co to find him with a plan already in mind, rely wanting to spend a few days with him, and if he was willing, perhaps they could play the role of husband and wife temporarily.
But Ran Yunsheng was unaware of her intense resolve, and with his nature, he couldn’t bring himself to do that sort of thing.
Her husband’s family was also prominent, and if it was discovered that she wasn’t a virgin, she would likely be disdained by her husband.
Suddenly, Ran Yunsheng turned over and buried his face in the blanket, his sobbing muffled under the covers.
It was regret, resentnt, and pain…
Ran Yan’s eyes, too, were moist, but her heart loosened a bit, glad that he could cry.
Crying is the best release for heartache, it is the inability to cry that is truly frightening.
The few people waiting outside heard the faint sounds of sobbing, the repressed dark anguish struck them with grief, and they all found themselves montarily at a loss.
Luo’s also looked at the curtains swaying in the wind with surprise.
Ran Yunsheng had always been especially well-behaved and considerate, never causing worry and generally cheerful.
She had never heard him cry so bitterly.
Ran Yan looked at his repressed state and sighed deeply, it must be because of regrets that he felt so sad.
Ran Yunsheng cried bitterly, not knowing if he fainted from exhaustion or fell asleep, but gradually, the sound stopped.
Ran Yan reached out to check his pulse and was so shocked that she called out loudly, “Doctor!”
The elder from outside rushed into the inner chamber within a few steps.
Before Ran Yan could check the pulse, she snatched his dical kit, rummaged out the acupuncture needles, rapidly stripped down Ran Yunsheng’s clothes, found the acupuncture points and began inserting the silver needles into the skin with skill and orderly precision.
Luo’s was initially about to cry out in shock, but seeing Ran Yan’s skilled hands, clearly in a rush yet not at all flustered, she forced herself to swallow her cry of surprise.
The doctor watched for a mont, saw the precision of each needle, and did not intervene.
Ran Yan’s acupuncture technique wasn’t particularly novel, but her actions were efficient and steady.
The doctor, being over fifty years old, naturally couldn’t compare to Ran Yan in this aspect.
After a while of needling, the old doctor checked Ran Yunsheng’s pulse again and nodded, saying, “He’s out of imdiate danger for now.”
The tense atmosphere in the room relaxed slightly, but the doctor’s words caused their hearts to tense up again, “The young master’s condition is not good right now, and soone should keep watch over him in case there’s a repeat of what just happened, to have an imdiate response.”
“Wife.” The soft voice of Wan Lu ca from outside the curtains.
Ran Yan, whose forehead was sweating and cool, steadied her mood and asked, “What is it?”
“Soone has brought dicine, they say it’s an excellent redy for the heart ridian,” Wan Lu replied.
Ran Yan paused for a mont, then quickly walked out and saw Wan Lu holding a light turquoise small dicine bottle and a piece of paper.
Seeing Ran Yan, Wan Lu said, “Ms.
Xing just brought these over, said they were found at the entrance of the hall.” As she spoke, she handed over the items and whispered, “Ms.
Xing said it’s probably from Pharmacist Su.”
Ran Yan hesitated for a mont, slightly pursing her lips, and unfolded the paper which simply read a few words: Fully aware of your brother’s illness.
Indeed, it was Su Fu’s handwriting.
Ran Yan imdiately returned to the inner chamber with the porcelain bottle, poured out the dicinal pill and placed it into Ran Yunsheng’s mouth.
The dicine lted upon entering the mouth, and as Er Dong was about to get so water, Ran Yan noticed that Ran Yunsheng was already showing slight signs of swallowing, so she fed him only a sip of water.
Ran Yan had moved too fast, and before the others could react, she had already administered the dicine.
Luo’s finally hurriedly asked, “What dicine did Shilang take?”
“It’s…
my master, upon learning of Shige’s illness, so he sent this dicine over,” Ran Yan explained, looking down.
Luo’s did not doubt her; she thought it was sothing Ran Yan had arranged before coming here.
Worried for her son’s safety and preoccupied with his well-being, she naturally didn’t linger on the thought.
About a quarter of an hour later, Ran Pingyu and Doctor Zhou entered the house together, Xiao Song also ca in, dusty from travel.
Ran Pingyu was the only heiress of the family lineage; Ran Yunsheng’s sudden collapse had shaken the usually stable man, and he sought doctors everywhere, wishing he could summon all of Chang’an’s doctors to the house for a consultation.
While busy with this, he ran into Luo’s servant and then thought to ask Xiao Song for an Imperial Physician, so he went personally to ask for help.
When Luo’s saw Doctor Zhou, she repeatedly asked him to enter the inner chamber.
Although Ran Yan had perford well just now, for most people, the words “Imperial Physician” held more convincing power.
Ran Pingyu hurriedly followed into the room, and Xiao Song, hesitating for a mont, also entered.
Doctor Zhou, who had been dragged out of bed by Xiao Song, worried about the urgency of life and death, did not dare to take it lightly and hurriedly stepped forward to take the pulse.
After checking for a while, Zhou relaxed, smiled, and said, “His pulse is steady, a sign of wellness.
Your son is no longer in danger, but he will need proper recuperation for so ti.
I will prescribe a course of treatnt later on.”
The old doctor expressed his confusion, “Eh, it was extrely critical just half an hour ago, how could it have stabilized so quickly?”
This comnt carried a hint of skepticism, and everyone’s attention suddenly focused on him.
The old doctor realized the significance of Zhou’s presence and hastily waved his hands, saying, “I did not an to doubt my colleague.
Since the young lady’s acupuncture earlier was unremarkable, then it must have been the pill she administered that had an effect.”
Hearing this, all eyes once again turned to Ran Yan.
Ran Yan dared not say it was dicine prepared by her master again, for if they asked who her master was, she couldn’t say it was Su Fu.
If she ntioned Wu Xiuhe, Ran Pingyu knew that Wu Xiuhe lived in a temple in South City, and if Doctor Zhou on a whim decided to et this gifted person, her lie would be exposed.
