“What’s wrong with Ye Fei?”

Standing by the door, a middle-aged man in a gray long robe frowned as he looked at the scene inside the ward.

The man’s name was Ye Fengcheng.Full novel: The Villain’s Wishes Backfire and the Protagonists Take the Hit — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠

As a top-tier family in Xia Nation, wealth and power… the things ordinary people spent their entire lives pursuing… meant nothing to the Ye Family.

Once a person had both wealth and power, there was only one thing left that truly mattered… health.

Thus, thirty years ago, the previous head of the Ye Family had established a special branch within the family.

This branch specialized in studying medicine, treating injured or ill members of the Ye Family.

And Ye Fengcheng was one of the core technical members of this group.

Since childhood, he had gone into the mountains to study under a reclusive master, tasting hundreds of herbs.

Using traditional herbal medicine to treat illnesses was the only skill he had mastered over the years.

After his master passed away, he became the strongest practitioner in Xia Nation in applying herbal medicine to its peak!

“Steward Wang, what happened here?” he asked coldly as he stepped into the ward.

Steward Wang, who was sitting by the bedside, jolted in fright upon seeing Ye Fengcheng. “Y-you… why are you here?”

“The family was worried something might happen to Ye Fei, so they sent me. You people are truly useless,” Ye Fengcheng scolded in a low voice before turning to Ye Fei lying on the bed.

“Xiao Fei, can you calm down a bit? Don’t make such a fuss in the hospital. If outsiders find out, it’ll disgrace the Ye Family.”

Ye Fei looked up at Ye Fengcheng.

In his previous life, this uncle of his… a divine doctor who had mastered traditional medicine to an extraordinary level… had been completely crushed by Chen Zhuo’s medical skills.

In the end, his Dao heart shattered. He went mad, refined poison, and killed more than 300 members of the Ye Family.

“Sixth Uncle, do you know Chen Zhuo?” Ye Fei asked, recalling everything from his past life.

“Chen Zhuo? Who’s that? Did you hit your head too hard?” Ye Fengcheng said, not sarcastically, but while carefully examining Ye Fei’s complexion.

There was nothing wrong.

“Oh, nothing. I must have remembered wrong,” Ye Fei said, a faint smile curling on his lips.

From the looks of it, he was the only one who had been reborn.

As expected… the Son of Destiny was different!

Since the heavens had given him a chance for revenge, this time, he would proceed cautiously!

“Sixth Uncle, my injuries aren’t serious… just a minor rib fracture and—”

Knock, knock, knock.

Before he could finish, someone knocked on the door.

All three people in the room turned to look.

A figure that Ye Fei would recognize even if turned to ashes stood at the doorway, smiling.

Seeing everyone’s gaze on him, the man said calmly, “Ye Fei, although you were quite rude earlier today, since you got injured in my supermarket, I can’t just leave you alone in the hospital. If you have any requests, feel free to say them.” Visit novelping dot com for the full chapter.

“Oh? And this is—” Chen Zhuo looked at Ye Fengcheng with a puzzled expression.

In his previous life, Ye Fengcheng had poisoned the entire Ye Family by himself. Of course, Chen Zhuo would never forget him.

After sending Jiang Qiuli back to the dorm, Chen Zhuo had driven straight to the hospital, planning to provoke Ye Fei and speed up his wish cooldown.

He hadn’t expected such an unexpected bonus.

“Hello, I’m Ye Fengcheng, a relative of Ye Fei. You just said he was injured in your supermarket?” Ye Fengcheng asked politely.

“That’s right. So I must take responsibility. Whatever treatment plan you prefer, feel free to propose it. I’ll cover all the medical expenses,” Chen Zhuo replied sincerely.

There was not the slightest trace of him being a reborn villain.

Even Ye Fei felt puzzled.

In his previous life… Chen Zhuo wasn’t like this at all.

Ye Fengcheng nodded.

Originally, he had planned to drive Chen Zhuo away to avoid exposing the Ye Family’s secrets.

But seeing Chen Zhuo’s sincerity, he found it hard to speak.

“Then thank you.”

He didn’t say more and instead took out a gauze-wrapped bundle from his pocket.

Ye Fei frowned, about to speak and chase Chen Zhuo out.

But before the words could leave his mouth, he glanced nervously toward the door, afraid Jiang Qiuli might be standing outside.

Seeing no one there, he relaxed.

Looking at Chen Zhuo again, he swallowed the words he had been about to say.

No… his previous failures were all because he had been too impulsive, blinded by hatred from his past life.

Now, he needed to be a smarter Son of Destiny.

He couldn’t act recklessly anymore.

He had to plan for the long term!

“What were you about to say?” Ye Fengcheng noticed his hesitation and asked.

“Nothing. I wanted to ask if there’s any suitable treatment method for me. It’s just a minor rib fracture, and my arm dislocation has already been reset,” Ye Fei said calmly.

“Of course. This is the medicine I brought. Apply it to the injured area, and it will accelerate recovery. If nothing goes wrong, you’ll be discharged tomorrow after one night of application,” Ye Fengcheng said confidently.

In front of his medical skills, Ye Fei’s injuries were insignificant.

If not for the patriarch’s order, he wouldn’t have come at all.

“That’s good.” Ye Fei let out a long breath.

What he needed most right now was to be discharged.

Only then could he reclaim his position as class monitor, explain things to Jiang Qiuli, take her back from Chen Zhuo… and torture Chen Zhuo to death!

“Really? The hospital doctors were already preparing for surgery. Can your medicine really have such an effect?” Chen Zhuo said, full of doubt.

As a leading figure in herbal medicine, Ye Fengcheng could not tolerate others questioning his skills.

He stopped himself.

“Forget it. Even if I told you, you wouldn’t understand. Just know that, in modern medical terms, it accelerates cell regeneration in the injured area, which speeds up healing.”

Hearing the explanation, Chen Zhuo’s expression shifted from doubt to shock.

“Really? If that’s the case, that’s amazing! If your medicine can achieve this, it’s truly a pride of Xia Nation!”

Seeing Chen Zhuo’s reaction, Ye Fengcheng felt extremely satisfied.

No matter how powerful someone was, there was always something that could please them.

For Ye Fengcheng, the greatest satisfaction was others acknowledging and admiring his medical skills.

He smiled and explained, “Many of the ingredients here are herbs you’ve never seen before. Their effects are something you’ve never witnessed either. Today, you’ll get to witness a medical miracle.”

Then he turned to Ye Fei and said, “This contains powdered medicine I’ve prepared. I’ll moisten it and apply it to your injured area. The medicinal components will enter your pores and seep into your body. You’ll feel a burning sensation.

After that, it will stimulate the metabolic activity of the cells in the injured area, accelerating their division. It may feel a little itchy, but by tomorrow morning, everything will return to normal.”

Hearing this, Ye Fei’s eyes lit up.

This was exactly the kind of miracle medicine he needed!

“Sixth Uncle, quickly, use it on me!”

“Alright.”

“I’ll go get some water,” Chen Zhuo said.

His smile was even brighter than Ye Fei’s. After saying that, he walked out of the ward.

Once outside, he could no longer suppress the curve of his lips.

He hadn’t expected such a gain from this hospital visit.

It was time to make a wish.

Looking at the system, Ye Fei’s repeated emotional outbursts had already reduced the cooldown time by over ten hours.

Now, the cooldown had ended.

“System, come out. I want to make a wish!”

“My wish is… to make my body 100 times more sensitive to the effects of medicine!”

[Ding! 100 times exceeds the allowable range. Please reduce the multiplier.]

“Then 80 times.”

[Please reduce the multiplier.]

“50 times.”

[…]

Finally, when Chen Zhuo said five times… the wish succeeded!
