Early the next morning, Liu Yiru and the two girls got up, but by the time they had prepared breakfast, Ye Fei still hadn’t come out of his room.
This puzzled Liu Yiru, as Ye Fei wasn’t the type to sleep in.
"Yunqi, go see why your brother hasn’t woken up yet," Liu Yiru instructed Ye Yunqi, who was sitting there waiting for food. She didn’t know why, but she didn’t want Lin Ling to have too intimate a contact with Ye Fei.
Maybe it stemmed from a hint of jealousy she herself hadn’t even realized.
"Okay," Ye Yunqi replied, walking to Ye Fei’s room and gently knocking on the door.
When no one answered, she pushed the door open and went in.
A moment later, she ran out in a panic, exclaiming, "Mom, it’s bad! Brother seems to be sick!"
"What?" Liu Yiru was startled and rushed to Ye Fei’s bedroom, with Lin Ling quickly following.
Inside the room, Liu Yiru saw Ye Fei lying there motionless, his face flushed unnaturally. She quickly felt his forehead and was accidentally burned by the intense heat.
Among her children, Ye Fei was undoubtedly the one Liu Yiru doted on the most, and now that she had developed a different kind of affection for him, seeing him sick made her extremely anxious.
However, she didn’t lose her composure. Forcing herself to calm down, Liu Yiru called Dongfang Ruolan.
Though she didn’t know much about medicine, the fact that Ye Fei’s forehead was at least 140°F told Liu Yiru that this was no ordinary cold or fever. She didn’t call the hospital’s emergency number because she knew that a regular hospital wouldn’t be able to handle this.
Dongfang Ruolan, the real medical genius, was the best choice.
"Hello, Ruolan, Ye Fei is sick. His temperature is at least 140°F. Please come over quickly!"
As soon as the call connected, Liu Yiru didn’t waste any time and directly informed Dongfang Ruolan of Ye Fei’s symptoms, not realizing that her voice had already taken on a slightly tearful tone.
Dongfang Ruolan, who had been ready early in the morning, couldn’t help but smile inwardly. She didn’t expect Ye Fei to start his plan so soon.
However, she was also touched by Liu Yiru’s unconditional love for Ye Fei and quickly comforted her, "It’s okay. I’ll be right over. Yiru, don’t worry too much. He should be fine."
"Okay, I’ll wait for you!" Liu Yiru hung up the phone, not wanting to delay Dongfang Ruolan’s departure.
Sitting by Ye Fei’s bedside, Liu Yiru stared at his slightly flushed face. Her once extremely bright eyes were now filled with mist.
Although Ye Fei lay there with his eyes closed, he was in a special state that allowed him to observe everything around him.
Seeing Liu Yiru so anxious, he felt both touched and heartbroken.
He silently said to himself, "I’m sorry for deceiving you, but this is for our future happiness. Don’t worry, I’ll make it up to you with all my love."
In less than half an hour, a car with military plates pulled up in front of the Liu family villa. Dongfang Ruolan, dressed in casual clothes, got out of the car.
Liu Yiru, who had been waiting there, didn’t have time to say anything else.
She grabbed Dongfang Ruolan’s hand and quickly walked towards the small building, saying, "You’re here! Come quickly and take a look!"
Although Liu Yiru’s actions were a bit rude, Dongfang Ruolan understood her anxiety at the moment.
If she hadn’t known that Ye Fei was pretending to be sick, she would have been just as anxious.
So, even if they weren’t close friends since childhood, Dongfang Ruolan wouldn’t have blamed her.
Upon arriving at Ye Fei’s room, Dongfang Ruolan pulled up a chair and sat by Ye Fei’s bedside. She first felt Ye Fei’s forehead temperature and then took his pulse.
"Auntie Dongfang, how is he?" Lin Ling, who was still unaware of Ye Fei’s plan, was just as anxious as Liu Yiru. Seeing Dongfang Ruolan finally release Ye Fei’s wrist, she was the first to ask.
Dongfang Ruolan smiled slightly and said, "He’s not in serious danger. He just had a bit of a spiritual mishap.
As long as someone uses internal energy to help him channel it, he’ll recover in no time."
"Really?" Lin Ling was a bit skeptical about Dongfang Ruolan’s words, given Ye Fei’s condition.
"Of course it’s true," Dongfang Ruolan said with a smile. "Even if no one helps him channel it with internal energy, he’ll recover on his own in a short while. So, don’t worry. In a little while, Auntie will give you back a lively little husband!"
Lin Ling’s face turned red as she whispered, "Auntie, what are you talking about?" But she felt relieved inside.
Hearing Dongfang Ruolan’s words, Liu Yiru also felt reassured and said to Ye Yunqi and Lin Ling, "You two should hurry to school, or you’ll be late."
Knowing that Ye Fei was fine, Lin Ling was completely relieved.
As for Ye Yunqi, she had known from the beginning that Ye Fei was just pretending, so she wasn’t worried at all.
Soon, the two young beauties bid farewell to the two older beauties and went to school together.
After the two girls left, Dongfang Ruolan sighed softly, which startled Liu Yiru, who had just relaxed. She quickly asked, "Ruolan, is there a problem? Isn’t Ye Fei just having a spiritual mishap?"
"It is a spiritual mishap, but his condition is a bit special," Dongfang Ruolan said, following the plan she had discussed with Ye Fei the night before.
"Yesterday, I checked him again and found out the reason for his blocked meridians. It’s because he has an excessive amount of yang energy in his body. This energy has completely blocked his meridians. Recently, he must have practiced some kind of technique that allowed him to channel a small part of that yang energy."
Liu Yiru nodded and said, "I know about this. He’s practicing the technique that we all thought was useless at first. Is his spiritual mishap because of that technique?"
"It could be said that it is, and it could be said that it isn’t," Dongfang Ruolan explained.
"To be precise, the cause of his spiritual mishap is the excessive yang energy in his body. If he hadn’t channeled any of it, his body would have remained weak as it was when he was a child, but there wouldn’t have been much danger. However, he managed to channel a small part of it, which caused the rest to become unstable."
"Then if he channels the rest of it, he’ll be fine?" Liu Yiru asked eagerly.
"Dongfang Ruolan said, "In theory, that’s correct. However, his current condition is such that he doesn’t even have self-awareness. How could he possibly channel that energy?"
"Is there any way to wake him up?" Liu Yiru asked anxiously.
"There is a way, but it’s a bit of a dilemma," Dongfang Ruolan sighed.
Liu Yiru was desperate and said, "Just tell me the way. No matter how difficult it is, I’ll find a way to do it."
"Alright," Dongfang Ruolan sighed again.
"Actually, it’s quite simple to wake him up. All we need to do is to channel some of the excessive yang energy out of his body. Once the innate yang energy can no longer fully suppress the part he has already channeled, he will naturally wake up."
"But how do we channel it out for him? My dear sister, can you just tell me all at once?"
Dongfang Ruolan was a month older than Liu Yiru, and she had always insisted that Liu Yiru call her "sister" since they were kids.
However, Liu Yiru felt embarrassed to call someone just a little older than herself "sister," so the two had often teased each other about it. But now, for Ye Fei’s sake, Liu Yiru had no choice but to comply.
Dongfang Ruolan’s face turned slightly red as she said, "Actually, it’s very simple. If I’m not mistaken, his body must be in an extremely excited state right now. As long as he can release it a few times, he should be fine."
Liu Yiru was taken aback at first, but then she understood what Dongfang Ruolan meant. Her face turned red as she asked, "Is there really no other way?"

Dongfang Ruolan replied with a wry smile, "If I could think of another way, would I be telling you this?" She paused for a moment, then deliberately asked, "Do you need my help?"
"Help?" Liu Yiru was puzzled again.
"How would you help? Are you going to sacrifice yourself for him?"
"Where do you get that idea?" Dongfang Ruolan shook her head.
