Chapter 136: Yiling Falls Sick (2)
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
"Why is her temperature not going down?"
Every so often, Jian Yumin would touch Jian Yiling's forehead. More than half the drip had been depleted, yet Jian Yiling's temperature was still quite high.
Grandma Jian was incredibly anxious as well. However, she knew that it was useless to be anxious. Medicine didn't become effective immediately.
Jian Yiling's body felt heavy. She tossed around as she had a nightmare.
In her nightmare, she was Jian Yiling from the original novel. She dreamt that when she became seriously ill in the hospital, she had opened her phone. However, as she scrolled through her phone contacts, she came to the realization that there was no one who she could contact.
In her nightmare, she knew that she was about to die. However, she didn't know who to say her last words to. Who would listen to her?
All of a sudden, she woke up from her dream. However, she saw that she was in the exact same hospital room.
"Are you awake?"
Jian Yumin's voice beside her interrupted her thoughts.
Jian Yiling turned her head to look at him.

Jian Yumin was still in his pajamas. He looked at her with an expression filled with worry.
Grandma Jian also got up from the sofa in the hospital room.
"My darling, how are you doing?"
Grandma Jian asked as she walked over.
Suddenly, Jian Yiling realized that she had fallen sick.
She had forgotten that her current body and immune system was weak. It couldn't handle the few hours of rest that she had every night.
"I'm fine."
As Jian Yiling spoke, her voice was softer than usual. She articulated her words with quite some difficulty.
"What do you mean you're fine? You're evidently not fine! The doctor said that you had been burning up for quite some while. As a result, you're still feverish right now. Did you just put up with your fever throughout the night?" Grandma Jian asked. Her voice sounded pained and upset.
Grandma Jian's guess was correct. Jian Yiling had been busy until one in the morning. At that time, she felt that she was becoming ill.
However, she didn't want to disturb her family, so she went to sleep.

When Jian Yiling didn't respond, Grandma Jian knew that she guessed correctly.
Grandma Jian was on the verge of tears as she looked at Jian Yiling: "I'm so angry with you! If you're sick, why don't you tell me? I'm still young! I wouldn't get upset if you wake me up in the middle of the night. However, you had a fever for so long that you've now developed gastroenteritis! I guess that you'll only be eating congee for the next few days! I won't give you anything good to eat!"
After Grandma Jian finished speaking, she turned around and walked to the hospital corridor to wait for the housekeeper. She had requested the housekeeper to bring food that was preserved in honey, candy, snacks, and so on.
After Grandma Jian left, Jian Yumin looked at Jian Yiling and said: "I don't know what you eat on a daily basis. How are you still so light after you've grown up? It didn't even take much effort to carry you here"
Jian Yiling's gaze went to Jian Yumin's pajamas, slippers, and hair.
His ash-gray hair was a mess. It looked like a chicken coop.
She realized that he must have been in quite a hurry if he didn't even have time to change his clothes and brush his hair.
He was an idol. If someone were to take a photo of him right now, it'd be blackmail material.
"Thank... you."
It was hard for Jian Yiling to speak with a dry throat.
Jian Yumin couldn't help but smile at Jian Yiling. "You don't need to thank me. If you want to thank me, get well as soon as possible. Look at the look on your face right now! It's incredibly ugly."

After Jian Yiling finished speaking, he paused for a moment. He realized that his words may have been quite inconsiderate.
Then he added, "I mean you look better when you're not pale and bloodless. Don't worry, you're not ugly right now."

Jian Yumin knew that he didn't know how to coax and sweet-talk girls. As a result, he asked:
"Hey, if you're bored, I can sing for you. It usually costs money for others to listen to me sing."

After he finished speaking, Jian Yumin began to hum a song.
Jian Yumin had a beautiful voice. It sounded even better when he sang.
Typically, Jian Yumin sang songs that expressed a lot of emotions. The vibe that was given off as he sang was gentle and affectionate.
Although Jian Yiling didn't have an ear for music, she still recognized that the song was incredibly beautiful. It felt like a warm stream of sunshine that flowed into one's heart.
After he finished singing a song, Jian Yumin smiled and asked Jian Yiling: "Was it nice? Was it good enough to charge you?"
Jian Yiling nodded before asking, "How much?"
Jian Yumin paused for a moment. He had said it as a joke. He hadn't expected Jian Yiling to actually pay him.
If it did come down to money, it cost hundreds and thousands of dollars to ask Jian Yumin to sing at a concert.
Jian Yumin smiled and said, "I'll give you a discount as you're my sister. $8.88, what do you think? It's quite an auspicious number and a fair price as well."
Jian Yiling nodded before she reached out her hand to ask Jian Yumin to pass over her phone.

"Don't use your phone when you're lying down. If you drop it, it'll hit your face."

After Jian Yumin finished speaking, he took a look at Jian Yiling's face. In less than a second, he gave in.
The housekeeper had brought over everything that Jian Yiling typically used on a daily basis. Of course, this included her mobile phone.
After she got her phone, Jian Yiling added Jian Yumin as a friend. Then, she sent him a red envelope.
Jian Yumin opened the red envelope. It was $8.88. Not a penny more, not a penny less.
He couldn't help but smile when he saw the red envelope.
"How about this, I'll sing a few more songs for you. Then, I technically can earn quite a bit of money for this morning."
"Mhmm." Jian Yiling replied. She agreed to the suggestion.
Jian Yumin continued to sing for Jian Yiling.
After every song, Jian Yiling sent him a red envelope that enclosed $8.88.
By the time Grandma Jian and the housekeeper returned, Jian Yumin had already received 5 red envelopes from Jian Yiling.

His earnings came to a grand total of $44.40.
Grandma Jian and the housekeeper had brought over a ton of food. There was indeed plain congee, however, there were also a lot of other foods.
"Do you want congee or do you want millet porridge?" Jian Yumin asked Jian Yiling.
As of now, Jian Yiling could only eat light foods. As a result, she could only choose between congee and millet porridge. She could only eat the rest of the foods when she got a bit better.
"Millet porridge."
After Jian Yiling made a decision, Jian Yumin raised Jian Yiling's hospital bed. Then, he scooped a spoonful of porridge next to Jian Yiling's mouth.
Jian Yiling felt rather awkward. "I can do it myself."
She had never experienced being fed by anyone else before.
"What if you can't hold the spoon properly? It'll be more troublesome if you spill it. It's better for me to feed you."
Jian Yumin insisted that he would feed Jian Yiling.
Jian Yiling had no choice but to listen. She took a small bite of the spoonful of porridge that was brought to her mouth.

As Jian Yuming was feeding her, Jian Shuxing, Wen Nuan, Jian Yuncheng, and Jian Yunnao arrived.
It was Grandma Jian who had contacted them.
Wen Nuan immediately walked over to Jian Yiling's side. She looked at the pale face of her daughter and felt inexplicably saddened before asking: "Yiling, are you feeling better?"
Her voice trembled as she spoke. Tears flowed out of her eyes unconsciously.
Jian Shuxing and Jian Yuncheng stood near the doorway. Both of them were frowning as they watched the scene in front of them.
Jian Yunnao didn't enter the hospital room. He had been requested to wait outside.
As he stood outside the door, he felt quite upset. He could only glance at the situation inside the room from a distance.
The words of his elder brother rang in his ears.
His mother's tears, his father's depression, and...
Jian Yunnao's eyes swept across the room. They didn't stop on Jian Yiling, however, his eyes still saw her small and pale face.

He remembered that not long ago, they had been a happy family.
However, that one incident had changed everything forever.
His hand, his life, and their relationship had been ruined.
And the cause of all of this was Mo Shiyun. She was someone that he had once trusted so much.
However, reality had told him that this girl was a hypocrite. She wasn't worthy of his trust.
As Jian Yunnao thought about this, he didn't know how to deal with the situation in front of him.
Inside the hospital room, the rest of them spoke to Jian Yiling for quite a while.
Wen Nuan had insisted on staying back to take care of Jian Yiling. However, Grandma Jian didn't agree to such an agreement:
"Yumin and I can take care of our darling. You don't need to worry about it. Don't you have to arrange things over at the other hospital? Go do that first."
Grandma Jian knew that Jian Yunnao was about to have an operation. As a result, she intended for Wen Nuan to deal with Jian Yunnao's matters first.
How to Restore Vision Without SurgeryiFocus
She didn't want her to worry about both things at once.
Grandma Jian didn't want Wen Nuan to stay by Jian Yiling's side if she was just going to think about Jian Yunnao's situation. That wouldn't do anyone any good. It would be better if she just left.
However, Wen Nuan was insisting on staying. She didn't want to leave. Her daughter's face was still bloodless.
Jian Yuncheng spoke up: "Grandma, why don't you just let my mother stay back? I'll take care of the situation on the other end."
As such, Grandma Jian couldn't say anything else to prevent Wen Nuan from staying. "Okay, I hope that you can manage."
At this moment, a tall woman walked into Jian Yiling's hospital room.
The way she walked was incredibly menacing. It appeared as though she was walking with the wind.
There was a man who trailed after the woman. He was wearing gold-rimmed glasses.
The eyes of the Jian family were filled with surprise.
As soon as Luo Xiuen entered the room, she rushed over to Jian Yiling. She didn't care about the rest of the people who were standing in the room. She pushed Jian Yumin aside to say:
"What happened? How did you become sick? Are you still burning up?"

Luo Xiuen touched Jian Yiling's forehead in a practice manner.
"It's still warm." Luo Xiuen said. She picked up Jian Yiling's medical records from the bedside table and flicked through the pages.
Behind her, Cheng Yi cautiously pulled Luo Xiuen. He attempted to remind her to pay attention to her surroundings, "Sister En, Yiling only has a fever."
There was no point in checking the medical records for common cold and fever. What medicine could she even prescribe?
Luo Xiuen brushed off Cheng Yi's words. She turned around and asked Jian Yiling: "Have you done a CT? What about magnetic resonance imaging? Also, don't forget about an electrocardiogram."

"Sister En, a CT is enough... It's a bit too much to consider the other ones..."
Cheng Yi continued to remind Luo Xiuen in a low voice. He pushed up his glasses and swept his eyes around the room.
Everyone else was staring at them with a strange and puzzled look.
"Ahem, sorry. We're Yiling's friends. We don't mean any ill intent." Cheng Yi explained.
Cheng Yi knew that Jian Yiling had kept her family in the dark about joining their institution. As a result, Cheng Yi only said that he was Jian Yiling's friend. He didn't want to reveal the fact that they were colleagues.
Jian Yuncheng looked at Cheng Yi and Luo Xiuen for a while. He felt that both of them looked quite familiar.

Jian Shuxing also felt the same thing.
At that moment, Hong Baizhang rushed into the room. He was the director of the Tongde Private Hospital.
"Dr. Cheng and Dr. Luo, why didn't you tell me that you were going to visit?"
If it weren't for Professor Xu's phone call, he wouldn't have even known that Cheng Yi and Luo Xiuen had come to visit their hospital. He had been told that a very important person from their institution was in their hospital.

"Ahem ahem." Cheng Yi gently coughed twice to remind Luo Xiuen of the situation. Luo Xiuen had been concentrating on Jian Yiling.
Luo Xiuen raised her head to look at Hong Baizhang. Her expression showed slight disgust before she said: "Old Man Hong, we came here to visit a friend. I don't want to do anything work-related. Please don't talk to me about that."
"A friend? Which one here is your friend?" Hong Baizhang asked. He was quite curious about this matter.
He wanted to know what Luo Xiuen and Cheng Yi's friends were like.
"Well, I said I was visiting a friend. Of course, it's the one lying down right now. Unless you think I'm visiting someone who is standing up? But why would I do that in a hospital?"
2
Hong Baizhang looked rather embarrassed. As always, Dr. Luo was blunt with her words. She never tried to sugarcoat her words.
And then, Hong Baizhang took a serious look at the person lying on the bed.
However, all he saw was a thin and weak girl.
The girl was evidently quite young. She looked like a middle school student. Furthermore, her age discrepancy with Luo Xiuen and Cheng Yi was quite large.
Now, this was quite strange...
How to Restore Vision Without SurgeryiFocus
"Dr. Luo, did you say she..."
Was this the 'friend' that they were visiting?
"What? What's the problem?" Luo Xiuen replied.
Hong Baizhang definitely did not have a problem with this.
However, he thought that the situation was quite 'strange'.
Whenever he spoke with Cheng Yi and Luo Xiuen, it was hard to keep up with their thoughts.
Then how did this little girl, who was lying on the hospital bed right now, manage to become friends with them?
Whilst Hong Baizhang was confused, the others in the hospital room right now were also confused. In fact, they were even more confused than Hong Baizhang.
"Director Hong, do you recognize the two of them?" Jian Shuxing asked.
"Yep. They're researchers from the Huiling Medical Research Institution."
The term 'researcher' seemed quite common when you heard it. However, the effect was completely different when you added the 'Huling Medical Research Institution' to it.

They were the most talented 'researchers' in the industry.
All of a sudden, Jian Shuxing remembered why he thought these two people looked familiar.
When he had been searching for doctors and surgeons to perform Jian Yunnao's operation, he had seen the relevant data of the two people in front of him.
Both of them were top researchers in their respective fields.
However, the important thing was, the person who was going to perform their son's nerve repair surgery was also from the Huiling Medical Research Institution.
And this, the moment when everyone heard the phrase 'Huiling Medical Research Institution', their expressions completely changed.
Even Jian Yunnao's attention got drawn to the man and woman that were standing in the room.
He knew that the surgeon who was going to operate on his hand was affiliated with this institution.
And he knew that he would be soon checking himself into the ward of the institution.
This made him want to go up and take a look at the two individuals that were standing in the room. In fact, he even had the urge to ask them about the mysterious surgeon who was going to operate on him.
In Jian Yunnao's heart, the Huiling Medical Research Institution was a symbol of hope. Everything and everyone related to the institution had the same light to them.

Even Grandma Jian couldn't help but take a second look at Luo Xiuen and Cheng Yi.
Grandma Jian's gaze lingered on Cheng Yi for a moment.
The man looked like a gentleman. He was good looking, not too old, and quite knowledgeable.
Grandma Jian was delighted that her darling had made such an outstanding friend.
"Dr. Cheng and Dr. Luo, I never expected to meet the two of you here."
Jian Shuxing took the initiative to greet the two of them. His words were polite and courteous.

Cheng Yi smiled and replied, "Hello."
Jian Shuxing continued to speak, "In the next few days, my son is going to move into the ward of your institution. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you in advance for your staff's hard work."
"Your son?" Wouldn't that refer to Yiling's brother then?
"Yep, he's at the door right now." Jian Shuxing replied.
Cheng Yi looked at the door. Jian Yunnao was standing there. His eyes gleamed with hope.
All of a sudden, Cheng Yi seemed to realize something. He smiled before saying:
"Today, Sister En and I didn't come here for work. Young Master Yunnao's matters will be followed up by relevant staff in our institution. We are merely here to visit our friend."
And their friend was Jian Yiling.
Once again, Cheng Yi mentioned why they came here today. And the reason for that was Jian Yiling.
Once again, everyone's eyes were focused on Jian Yiling.
How to Restore Vision Without SurgeryiFocus
There was not a lot of expression on Jian Yiling's face. In fact, she looked calmer than everyone else in the room.
Her face was pale and young. From her eyes, one could tell that she was in poor health. Luo Xiuen had shoved a mint-flavored lollipop into Jian Yiling's mouth.
"Yiling, how do you know Dr. Luo and Dr. Cheng?"
The person who asked this question was Jian Shuxing. He was rather curious and excited about the situation.
"From- Online."
Jian Yiling answered the question truthfully. However, she was rather quiet. The reason for this was because it was rather hard for her to speak as the inflammation in her throat had not subsided.
It was true that Jian Yiling had contacted them on the Internet.
After communicating with Cheng Yi for a long period of time, the two of them had finally had their first in-person meeting.
Online?
Was it possible to get in touch with the institution's researchers on the Internet?
None of them knew a direct way to contact the researchers. The website of the Huiling Medical Research Institution only allowed them to submit applications.

"Ahem. The situation is like this. We met Yiling when we were playing a game."
Cheng Yi explained. He tried to help Jian Yiling hide her identity.
Cheng Yi knew a bit about Jian Yiling's situation. He knew that she had been hiding her relationship with the institution from her family.
Cheng Yi's answer had been quite unexpected. However, it seemed that it was quite reasonable.
Nowadays, it was normal for young people to meet new people by playing games.
However, none of them would have expected Jian Yiling to have met two talented researchers in such a way! Usually, no one had the ability to get in touch with them.
They had to admit that her luck was quite good. Often, there was a danger that the people that someone met online were scammers.
However, she hadn't met any of those people. Rather, she met two of the most talented researchers out there.
When the Jian family heard such an answer, they had a feeling in their stomach that they could not explain. Jian Yunnao felt this feeling the most.
When Hong Baizhang heard this answer, he felt quite crushed. Usually, it would take him a lot of effort to contact the people at the institution.
However, this young girl only had to play a game. And she had met two of them!
How to Restore Vision Without SurgeryiFocus
Cheng Yi smiled before he continued to speak in a gentle voice, "By the way, Yiling is not only acquainted with the two of us. She also knows the doctor who is going to perform the operation on Young Master Yunnao."
As soon as those words were said, everyone looked at Jian Yiling differently.
Jian Yiling actually knew the person who was going to operate on Jian Yunnao?
1
Back then, no one could convince the mysterious surgeon to accept the surgery. Even Mr. Qiu, who was renowned in the industry, could not manage. And it turned out that person was acquainted with Jian Yiling?!
This undoubtedly gave everyone the biggest shock.
