Chapter 156: Punish He Yan (1)
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
At this moment, Jian Yiling had just reached He Yan's house.
She went there by herself.
He Yan was quite surprised to see Jian Yiling at her house.
However, she still put on a smile.
"Yiling, what's wrong? Shouldn't you be at the hospital? Why did you leave the hospital? If you were planning to visit me, you should have told me beforehand. Then, I could prepare for your visit."
"The surveillance video. You hid it."
Jian Yiling cut straight to the chase.
"Yiling? What are you talking about? Why do I not understand what you're talking about?" He Yan felt her heart stir up. However, she still attempted to keep her face calm.
"Take a look at your WeChat," Jian Yiling said.
Just before Jian Yiling stepped into He Yan's house, she had sent a few files to He Yan's phone.

Just now, He Yan had been busy with something else. As a result, she hadn't yet gotten the opportunity to open her phone and check her messages.
When she heard what Jian Yiling said, He Yan suspiciously opened her phone.
She was friends with Jian Yiling on WeChat. At an earlier date, Jian Yiling had added her as a friend.
When He Yan opened her unread message, she saw a picture and two videos. The smile on her face began to fade away.
Jian Yiling had sent a photo of the hotel registry. She had also sent the confession statement of the person in charge of the hotel surveillance. The other video she had sent was of He Yan and Jian Yujie's argument in the study last night.
"Jian Yiling!"
She took large strides to get to Jian Yiling. Her first reaction was to grab Jian Yiling's phone.
Jian Yiling calmly took a step back before she told He Yan:
"I've made a copy of these photos and videos. Zhai Yunsheng has them. If something happens to me, he will publicize them."
Jian Yiling's words threw a big bowl of ice water on He Yan. It made her feel cold from head to toe.
Zhai Yunsheng had a copy of these photos and videos. No matter how capable she was, it was impossible for her to get those things off Zhai Yunsheng.

Furthermore, she had seen the relationship between Jian Yiling and Zhai Yunsheng. It was indeed possible for Jian Yiling to give Zhai Yunsheng such a thing for safekeeping.
Jian Yiling's one sentence had put a complete stop to all the thoughts that came to He Yan's mind. She didn't know what to do anymore.
He Yan stood in the same place for quite some time.
She looked at the young face of her niece. For the first time, she felt terrified of her little niece.
After she came back to her senses, He Yan smiled and softly spoke to Jian Yiling, "Yiling, I believe you have mistaken the situation. It was a pure coincidence that I came by this video. Yiling, you have to trust me. I didn't mean to hide the video from you. It's your brother Yunnao. He was afraid that he'd lose everything he had if the video became public. For this reason, he asked me to hide the video. I know I did the wrong thing. I shouldn't have listened to Yunnao. Yiling, would you forgive me?"
He Yan had no idea where Jian Yiling had gotten her hands on such things.
However, she knew that if Jian Yiling made these things public, her life would be ruined.
She knew that Grandpa Jian would definitely kick her out of the Jian family. Furthermore, it was possible for her to be shunned from the entirety of Hengyuan City.
Jian Yiling looked at her with cold eyes. She was indifferent to He Yan's pleas and explanations. "Firstly, don't force Yujie to do anything he doesn't want to do. Secondly, let him decide his own career. And thirdly, don't interfere in the affairs of the Jian family again."

Jian Yiling stated her conditions clearly and succinctly.
He Yan stared at Jian Yiling in shock and fear. She was shocked to hear that those were the conditions that Jian Yiling had stated.

After being startled for quite some time, He Yan asked: "Wait, you mean that as long as I agree to these three conditions, you won't publicize the video?"
"You have three seconds to answer," Jian Yiling said, "Three, two..."

Jian Yiling continued to count down.
When He Yan saw that Jian Yiling was serious about the situation, she frantically agreed, "Yes, yes I promise. I'll promise you anything!"
He Yan didn't want to do any of the things that Jian Yiling had listed.
However, she had no other choice.
"Now that you have my word, could you hand over those files?"
"If you have no credibility, these photos and videos will be released in no time."
"You..."
"Also," Jian Yiling said as she lowered her eyes to look at the smooth flooring of He Yan's house as if she was thinking about something, "The ground was slippery, and you fell."
"What are you talking about?"
"The ground was slippery, and you fell."

Jian Yiling repeated her sentence. Then, she reached out to pick up a golf club that had been placed next to the couch.

This golf club belonged to He Yan's husband, who was also Jian Yiling's second uncle. He Yan's husband liked playing golf in his free time.
He Yan's pupils dilated sharply when she saw Jian Yiling walk over with the golf club in her hand.
Although Jian Yiling appeared to look like a skinny and weak girl, she looked quite imposing when she was holding a golf club.
"Jian Yiling, don't you dare!"
Hitting someone with a golf club could kill them!
"Stand there, don't move."
Jian Yiling ordered.
If He Yan kept moving around, she would suffer the consequences.
"Jian Yiling, are you crazy?"
"Stop moving around. I won't be able to hit you accurately." Jian Yiling warned He Yan.

There were many parts of the body that were extremely fragile. If He Yan kept moving about, Jian Yiling would have potentially hit her in one of those parts.
"Jian Yiling, don't be crazy! Jian Yiling...:"
He Yan's eyes were finally filled with fear.
"Ah..."
An ear-piercing scream came from He Yan's house.
However, He Yan's house was quite soundproof. As a result, the sound disappeared as soon as it reached the courtyard.
No one knew what was happening to the lady of the house.
###
In front of He Yan's house, Yu Xi was waiting anxiously in his car.
Today, he had suddenly received a call from Jian Yiling. She had requested for him to pick her up and drop her off at a particular location.
1
Yu Xi had meekly followed her request. He didn't question the reason behind this.
How to Restore Vision Without SurgeryiFocus
On his way out of the Yu Residence, Master Sheng had also gotten into his car.
However, once again, Yu Xi didn't dare to question Master Sheng.
As such, both of them were now waiting in the car on the side of the road.
Jian Yiling had asked him to bring her here. However, he didn't know the intentions behind her actions.
Initially, he wanted to go into He Yan's house with her.
However, her attitude had been quite unyielding. She didn't allow anyone to follow her. Not even Zhai Yunsheng.
As he waited for Jian Yiling, Yu Xi kept pondering about the situation. Jian Yiling was going to visit He Yan. In a sense, there was really nothing to worry about.
However, it just felt like something was off. The situation today was quite strange.
The longer Yu Xi waited, the more anxious he became. He couldn't help but get out of the car and start pacing back and forth.
After half an hour had passed, Jian Yiling finally came out of He Yan's house.
She calmly got onto the back seat of the car.

Zhai Yunsheng was seated next to her. He had been leaning against his seat with his eyes half-opened. Compared to Yu Xi, he appeared to be much more relaxed.
When Jian Yiling had gotten into the car, Zhai Yunsheng's eyes widened a little. He turned his head to take a good look at Jian Yiling.
Yu Xi quickly got onto the driver's seat. He turned around and asked Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling:
"So, where are we going now?"
Zhai Yunsheng didn't reply. He was waiting for Jian Yiling to answer.
However, before Jian Yiling could open her mouth, her vision went blank. Then, she suddenly collapsed.
1
Zhai Yunsheng caught Jian Yiling in his arms.
When he touched her forehead, he realized that she was burning up.
Jian Yiling had run out of the hospital before her gastroenteritis had gotten better. As a result, her sickness had once again triggered a high fever.
"What happened?" Yu Xi asked. He appeared to look quite worried.
"Drive us to the hospital," Zhai Yunsheng ordered.

Yu Xi didn't dare to delay the situation at all. He quickly fastened his seat belt and stepped onto the accelerator.
As he sped through the streets, Yu Xi muttered:
"What's the matter with this little bunny? Why did she leave the hospital if she's not better... I thought she left because she recovered!"
Jian Yiling's feverish body was still in Zhai Yunsheng's arms. She had completely lost consciousness. As a result, she didn't even know that someone was holding onto her.
Yu Xi continued to mutter to himself, "It's fortunate that the little rabbit contacted us... If she fainted in the middle of the road, what would happen then?"
Yu Xi continued to mutter and curse as he drove all the way to the hospital.
Yu Xi sped the entire way to the hospital. He drove past quite a few red lights. However, there were a few intersections where there were too many cars. As a result, he couldn't drive past those.
He'd probably lose his license after this trip.
However, revoking his driver's license was a small matter. At worst, he would have to do a test again. Jian Yiling's health mattered much more.
As soon as Yu Xi stopped his car in front of the hospital, Zhai Yunsheng got off. He held Jian Yiling in his arms and hurriedly entered the hospital.

"Master Sheng, Master Sheng. Don't rush. Let me do this."
Yu Xi quickly parked his car before rushing over to Zhai Yunsheng. He tried to take Jian Yiling away from Zhai Yunsheng.
Yu Xi was afraid that Zhai Yunsheng would be in too much of a rush. That was the last thing that Zhai Yunsheng should do.
"Get lost!"
Zhai Yunsheng's voice was filled with anger and urgency.
He quickly walked away and completely ignored Yu Xi.
The only thing Yu Xi could do was chase after him.
Soon after, Yiling was placed into a hospital ward.
"Master Sheng and Young Master Xi, please don't worry. Miss Jian only has an ordinary fever. It's not a big problem. Her temperature should come down soon."
Hong Baizhang had come over personally to tell them this news.
Originally, he hadn't planned to come over. However, when he heard that Master Sheng was with Yu Xi, he couldn't act as though he didn't know about the matter.

The doctors at Tongde Private Hospital quickly took care of Jian Yiling's condition. She was once again put onto the IV drip.
"When will she wake?" Zhai Yunsheng asked Hong Baizhang in a fierce manner.
Hong Baizhang's heart pounded furiously. He had to answer quite cautiously.
"This... It'll depend on the individual's physical condition. Miss Yiling's body is quite weak..."
As Hong Baizhang explained the situation, he carefully observed Zhai Yunsheng's reaction.
Although he knew that there was no problem with the hospital's treatment and the patient's life was not in danger, he felt that Master Sheng might suddenly lose his temper at any second.
Zhai Yunsheng didn't reply to Hong Baizhang. Instead, he walked past Hong Baizhang and headed towards the hospital bed.
Yu Xi turned around and said, "Thank you, Director Hong."
"You're welcome, you're welcome." Hong Baizhang repeated. He thought to himself, even if Master Sheng and Young Master Xi hadn't arrived with Jian Yiling, he would have had to visit her anyway. If he didn't make this trip, he was afraid that the two people from the institution would come and beat him up.
After Hong Baizhang explained the situation, he left the ward.
"Go get some food," Zhai Yunsheng ordered Yu Xi.

Although Jian Yiling was still asleep, she would probably want to eat something when she woke up. It was likely that she hadn't had any food as she had been running around all day.
"Okay, I'll ask my cook to make something light and send it over."
Yu Xi immediately went out to make a phone call.
After Yu Xi left the room, only Zhai Yunsheng was left to guard Jian Yiling.
Jian Yiling gradually regained her consciousness. Her body started to react to her condition.
Her eyebrows started to knit together and her hands clenched into fists.
It appeared as though she was dreaming about some unpleasant things.
Zhai Yunsheng's expression was quite solemn as well.
He carefully picked up Jian Yiling's hand which was not strung up with an IV drip.
He realized that her small fist was clenched tightly together.
Then, he gently placed her fist into his palm.

His palm could completely cover Jian Yiling's fist.
Chapter 159: Cosy Hospital Ward (1)

Her hand was freezing. As he had her hand in the center of his palm, he tried to transfer some of his warmth into her small hand.
Jian Yiling was still in a daze. She began to have a nightmare again.
In her nightmare, she was standing in a mortuary. The coffin in front of her held a corpse.
And the face of that corpse was Jian Yujie.
She couldn't help but stand a few meters away from the body. She didn't dare to take another step forward.
The image in front of her was so vivid and clear. It was as though she had experienced and seen it right in front of her eyes.
###
As soon as Yu Xi finished calling his housekeeper, he received a phone call from Jian Yujie.
"Yu Xi, are you free right now? Yiling is missing. I tried calling her phone but I couldn't reach her."
Jian Yujie was outside right now. He had been furiously searching for Jian Yiling.
How to Restore Vision Without SurgeryiFocus
However, he didn't manage to contact her. Her mobile phone had been switched off.
He had called for a taxi and began to wander around the city like a headless fly.
In his helplessness, he suddenly thought of two people who could potentially help him, and that was Jian Yumin and Yu Xi.
He had just called the number of his brother, but his brother's assistant had answered the phone. The assistant had told him that Jian Yumin was currently recording a program.
As a result, Jian Yujie could only contact Yu Xi.
"She's fine. She's with me right now," Yu Xi replied.
When Jian Yujie heard Yu Xi's reply, his whole world lit up again.
"For real? Is Yiling really with you? Is she okay?"
Jian Yujie immediately threw out a series of questions.
"She's fine. Don't worry," Yu Xi answered quickly. He was worried that Jian Yujie would become worried again if he delayed his reply.
"Where are you? I'll come over right now!"

"We're at Tongde Private Hospital."
"The hospital? What happened? Is Yiling okay?"
"She's okay. Come over first."
Yu Xi thought that it was better for Jian Yujie to come over and see the situation for himself. He didn't want Jian Yujie to become overly anxious when he heard about Yiling fainting.
"Okay," Jian Yujie replied. He asked the taxi driver to take him to the hospital.
When he arrived at the hospital, he saw Jian Yiling lying on the hospital bed before he even entered the room. He could see through the windows of the hospital ward.
"What's wrong with Yiling? What happened?"
Jian Yujie wanted to rush towards Jian Yiling. However, Yu Xi stopped him in his tracks before he could get through the door.
"Calm down. Your sister is sleeping. She's fine. Don't cause a ruckus. You'd wake her up. She needs rest right now!"
When Jian Yujie heard Yu Xi's words, he immediately calmed down.
"Is Yiling really okay?"
How to Restore Vision Without SurgeryiFocus
"She left the hospital before her gastroenteritis cleared up. She also kept running about in the cold weather. As a result, her condition repeated itself."
Jian Yujie's thoughts immediately went back to Jian Yiling's appearance at his school. She had been waiting for him outside his classroom.
In the last few days, the temperature had been below zero. She had been sick, yet she ran out of the hospital to talk to him in this weather.
Jian Yujie didn't want to cry. He felt that it would be incredibly embarrassing to cry in front of people. However, he couldn't stop the tears coming out of his eyes.
However, Yu Xi didn't laugh at Jian Yujie. Instead, he handed him a pack of tissues.
"It's okay... Yiling will be fine. Don't be sad," Yu Xi comforted. He patted Jian Yujie on the shoulder as a gesture of comfort.

Yu Xi didn't really know what had happened between the two.
However, he knew that something was wrong. One of them was lying down on the hospital bed and the other was crying his eyes out.
After Jian Yujie got himself together, he entered Jian Yiling's hospital ward.
Zhai Yunsheng had already returned Jian Yiling's hand back under the blanket.
He didn't know when she had unclenched her fists.

After waiting for about ten minutes, Jian Yiling finally woke up.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw that three people were sitting beside her hospital bed. It was Zhai Yunsheng, Jian Yujie, and Yu Xi.

Immediately, she knew that she had caused them trouble once again.
Chapter 160: Cosy Hospital Ward (2)
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
When Jian Yujie saw that Jian Yiling finally woke up, he rushed forward and asked, "Are you okay? Are you still in pain?"
Jian Yiling shook her head.
"You're lying to me again. Gastroenteritis hurts a lot."
"I'm not in pain. You don't need to feel sad."
"I'm not sad. However, you need to get well soon. You shouldn't run around when you're still sick," Jian Yujie said to her solemnly.
"Okay," Jian Yiling replied. Her tone was quite serious. Then she said, "You should go home first."
For no particular reason, Yu Xi felt as though Jian Yiling sounded like Jian Yujie's nagging mother for a moment. However, the way she instructed him to do things was rather cute.
"No, I'm not leaving. I asked the school to give me a day off," Jian Yujie replied. He didn't want to leave now. He wanted to stay with his sister.
Jian Yujie had contacted his teachers whilst he had been waiting for Jian Yiling to wake up.
After Jian Yujie replied to Jian Yiling, he shot a sideways glance at Zhai Yunsheng. There was obvious hostility and caution in his eyes.
How to Restore Vision Without SurgeryiFocus
If this man was here, he definitely could not leave him alone with Yiling!
Yu Xi walked up to Jian Yujie and put his hand on Jian Yujie's shoulder, "Listen to your sister. Go home first. I've already contacted Grandma Jian about this matter. She will be here soon. You don't have to worry."
Yu Xi didn't dare to not report the situation to Grandma Jian. Whilst Jian Yujie was on the phone contacting his school, Yu Xi took the opportunity to contact the Old Jian Residence.
"But I want to stay with my sister for a little longer," Jian Yujie replied. He didn't want to leave.
"Your eyes are ugly. You need to go home and sleep," Jian Yiling told Jian Yujie.
Jian Yujie hadn't slept all night. As a result, he had dark circles under his eyes.
Yu Xi took the opportunity to tease Jian Yujie, "Look, even Yiling is making fun of you! You should hurry home and crawl into your bed! Don't let your sister worry about you!"
All of a sudden, Jian Yujie didn't know what else to say.
He didn't want Yiling to worry about him again.
"Okay... I'll go home. You have to get well soon as well."
Before Jian Yujie left, he told Yu Xi to take good care of Yiling. He also carefully insisted on not letting Zhai Yunsheng get too close to Yiling.

Although Yu Xi promised Jian Yujie, he wasn't sure of whether or not he could uphold that promise. If Zhai Yunsheng really wanted to get close to Jian Yiling, he couldn't stop him.
###
Yu Xi asked his housekeeper to bring over food.
There was plain congee and a plate of vegetables.
Zhai Yunsheng attempted to feed Jian Yiling the congee.
2
"No... Don't..."
Jian Yiling protested in a soft voice. She protested not because she disliked Zhai Yunsheng, but rather, it was quite embarrassing to be fed by someone else.
"Be a good girl," Zhai Yunsheng coaxed.
He brought up a spoonful of congee next to Jian Yiling's mouth.
When he saw that Jian Yiling didn't open her mouth, he kept holding the spoon there.
This made Jian Yiling feel even more embarrassed. She didn't have the habit of bothering people.
How to Restore Vision Without SurgeryiFocus
And thus, she opened her mouth and began eating in small bites.
Initially, her lips were quite pale. However, they started to gain some color after she had a few mouthfuls of congee.
Yu Xi began to explain the situation to Jian Yiling, "Yiling, please don't blame me for not giving you anything nice to eat. Right now, you can only have congee and vegetables. However, my chef attempted to cook as many different dishes as possible."
Yu Xi began to introduce the different dishes, "This one is asparagus. It's incredibly tender. It was steamed in water. No oil and salt were added to that dish. This other one is stir-fried broccoli and sweet potato. That dish also doesn't have much oil and salt in it."
There were various dishes of green vegetables. Not a single bit of meat was seen. Not to mention, all the dishes were quite tasteless.
After Yu Xi finished his introduction of the dishes, he assured Jian Yiling, "Don't worry. When you get better, I'll take you to eat all sorts of delicious foods and exotic delicacies. It's my treat."
