Chapter 732: Not Serious
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Ji Zi’ang stayed in the hotel for three days.
In the past three days, he had not contacted his family.
However, they heard from Shao Xiuqi that Ji Zi’ang’s appetite was getting bigger by the day.
In other words, his mood was improving bit by bit.
Ji Yuanyuan knew that her chance had come.
On Wednesday afternoon, Ji Yuanyuan took advantage of the break to call Ji Zi’ang.
“Yuanyuan.” As expected, Ji Zi’ang’s mood improved, and his tone became much more normal.
“Second Brother, do you have anything on tonight? Why don’t you go somewhere with me?” Ji Yuanyuan asked.
“Where are we going?” He did not reject her directly.
“You’ll know when you get there. I’ll pick you up tonight.” Ji Yuanyuan did not give him the chance to refuse.
Ji Zi’ang wanted to say something, but Ji Yuanyuan had already hung up.
Ji Zi’ang hesitated for a moment before finally compromising.
Ji Yuanyuan went straight to the hotel after class at night.
After having dinner with Ji Zi’ang at the hotel’s restaurant, they headed to Teacher Cai’s house.
His condition had visibly improved after not seeing him for a few days.
“When do you plan to go home?” Ji Yuanyuan asked softly on the way.
Ji Zi’ang was silent for a moment, “It’s good that I live here. I’m relaxed, and Dad and Mom can breathe a sigh of relief.”
When he was at home, his parents had to be careful with everything they did, afraid that they would agitate him.
However, their actions only made him feel worse.
It was as if he could do nothing but cause trouble for others.
He didn’t want to think that way but couldn’t control his thoughts.
Ji Yuanyuan nodded and did not insist, “If you think the hotel is comfortable, then continue to stay. If you have any requests, just tell the waiter. Shao Xiuqi and Mucheng are very close, so you don’t have to feel embarrassed.”
Ji Zi’ang agreed.
The journey took about an hour before Ji Yuanyuan brought Ji Zi’ang from Shao Xiuqi’s hotel to Teacher Cai’s neighborhood.
The neighborhood still did not allow unfamiliar cars to enter. Thus, Ji Yuanyuan moved the wheelchair down from the entrance and pushed Ji Zi’ang inside.
Although she had only been here once, Ji Yuanyuan still remembered the way.
Soon, she found the seventh building.
Fortunately, Teacher Cai lived on the first floor, so the two of them did not have to toss about.
“Where is this place?” Ji Zia’ng asked Ji Yuanyuan curiously at Teacher Cai’s house.
Was she bringing him to a stranger’s house?
“We’re going to see a grandmother. Be nice later, and don’t lose your temper.” Ji Yuanyuan knocked on the door after she finished speaking.
Ji Zi’ang felt a little suspicious when he heard Ji Yuanyuan’s words.
Don’t lose your temper? Why did Ji Yuanyuan’s words sound so strange?
When did he lose his temper?
Ji Zi’ang wanted to say something to Ji Yuanyuan, but the door opened.
A kind-looking old lady appeared at the door.
Ji Yuanyuan said politely, “Teacher Cai, is your leg healed?”
“I’m fine now. I’ve been fine for a long time.” The old lady said with a smile.
Then, she looked down at him, “This is your second brother, right? Your family’s genes are really good. Each and every one of you is so handsome. It’s cold outside.”
Ji Yuanyuan pushed Ji Zi’ang into the house and placed the fruits she bought on the ground, “I didn’t disturb you, did I?”
The old lady waved her hand, “No, even if you didn’t come, we would only watch some boring TV series to pass the time.”
The old lady closed the door, and her husband came out of the bedroom.
He placed a black bag on the coffee table.
The old lady turned around and opened the black bag. It was filled with acupuncture needles.
Ji Zi’ang’s expression changed.
“Come on, roll up the pants, and let me see.” The old lady nodded at Ji Yuanyuan.
Ji Yuanyuan quickly went forward and reached out to touch Ji Zi’ang’s pants.
Ji Zi’ang dodged and spoke in a hoarse voice, “What’s going on?”
Before Ji Yuanyuan could say anything, the old lady spoke up, “Roll up your pants, and you’ll know what’s going on.”
Ji Yuanyuan raised her head and smiled at Ji Zi’ang, “I’ll tell you when we get back.”
She bent down and rolled up his pants.
He had been staying in the hotel, so he was only wearing a pair of loose pants.
Ji Yuanyuan easily rolled up his pants.
Then, she pushed his wheelchair closer to the sofa.
The old lady put on her presbyopic glasses and carefully examined his wound, “Yes, you’re recovering well.”
She reached out and grabbed his calf, bending it a few times, “How is it? Does it hurt?”
Ji Zi’ang tried his best to suppress his emotions and shook his head.
The old lady looked up, her eyes peeking out from her glasses, “Young man, I agree with what your sister said. If Western medicine can’t cure it, Chinese medicine might be able to. I’ve been a doctor for many years. Your condition isn’t serious.”
Ji Ziang’s eyes immediately widened, “You mean…”
“I don’t mean anything. You have to cooperate so that I can understand.” The old lady bent his leg again. “Does it hurt? Where exactly does it hurt?”
Ji Ziang was stunned for a moment. Then, he reached out and pointed at a spot one centimeter away from his knee, “Here.”
The old lady nodded and looked at Ji Yuanyuan, “Where’s the film?”
Ji Yuanyuan quickly took out Ji Zi’ang’s scans from her bag.
The old lady took it and carefully looked at the scans.
Seeing that the old lady was looking at it seriously, Ji Zi’ang could not help but ask, “Aren’t you a traditional Chinese medicine doctor?”
The old lady frowned and looked at him, “Traditional Chinese medicine doesn’t mean it has nothing to do with X-rays. Without an X-ray scan, how would I know what’s going on with your bones?”
Ji Zi’ang looked a little embarrassed.
Ji Yuanyuan reached out and patted his shoulder to comfort him.
Not only did the old lady read it herself, but she also discussed it with the old man from time to time.
After a while, she put down the film.
“Girl, use this to disinfect his knees. I’ll go wash my hands.” The old lady instructed Ji Yuanyuan.
Ji Yuanyuan quickly went forward and took the things from the old lady’s hands.
The old lady was very careful and washed her hands for a long time.
After she returned, she kept her palms facing up.
“Use these alcohol swabs to disinfect the needles and pass them to me.”
This was Ji Yuanyuan’s first time coming into contact with these things. She quickly disinfected the needles and handed them to the old lady.
However, the old lady was not in a hurry to insert the needle. She pointed at the top of Ji Zi’ang’s knee and said, “This acupoint is called Liang Qiu. I’ll insert a needle here first. Observe carefully how I insert the needle…”
With that, she slowly inserted the needle into his knee..
