Chapter 24: He Looks So FragileFeng Xiao turned around leisurely, his sharp, eagle-like gaze seemingly able to pierce through the barrier before him, seeing straight to the person behind it.You Lan’s heart skipped a beat in that instant. His relatively handsome face was filled with fear as he lowered his voice and asked Yan Yan, “Who is this person? Why is he so terrifying?!”Yan Yan raised an eyebrow. “Terrifying?”She thought Feng Xiao just looked a bit fierce, with a face full of hostility that made him seem unapproachable. But his pale complexion and sharp chin, in her eyes, exuded an air of fragility.She shook her head. “He’s very weak. You need to convince him to get treatment quickly.”Weak?Was she joking??Had he never seen a truly weak patient before??Although he didn’t look very healthy, You Lan had a strange premonition that if he were to walk up to that person now…The other party could knock him down with a single move.You Lan’s intuition had always been accurate, including his decision to cooperate with Yan Yan, which was driven by his instincts.Therefore, he was especially nervous now.In contrast, Yan Yan looked completely fearless and silently urged him, “Hurry up!”You Lan could only steady himself and continue pretending. “Young man, if you don’t believe me… why not let me examine you once to see your specific condition? If you think what I say makes sense, then you can consider whether you’re willing to be treated by me.”Feng Xiao was unusually intrigued.If they were sent by the capital, he’d play along with them and see what they were up to.He casually pulled over a nearby chair, dragged it to the screen railing, and sat down.Stretching his long legs forward, he said lazily, “Alright, let’s see how you, the miracle doctor, plan to treat my body.”“Since you’re willing to cooperate, I’ll do my best to diagnose you! Place your hand on the table!”Hearing this, Feng Xiao obediently rested his arm on the table in front of the screen.Although he was thin, the muscle lines on his forearm were smooth, hinting at hidden strength.You Lan glanced at it, then cast a pleading look at Yan Yan.Yan Yan unwound the ball of golden thread from her hand and, under You Lan’s astonished gaze, narrowed her phoenix eyes and accurately flicked the golden thread out.“Swish!”The golden thread landed beside Feng Xiao’s wrist.You Lan: “…”Was this some long-lost martial arts technique?Or had Yan Yan already cultivated the legendary internal energy?You Lan felt as if he were seeing something only shown on television in the past, and he was so shocked he froze.It wasn’t until Yan Yan glared at him a few times that he snapped back to reality and quickly said, “Wrap the golden thread around your wrist.”Feng Xiao smirked lightly. “Miracle doctor, your golden thread is quite impressive.”Yan Yan tilted her head.Feng Xiao had some insight, recognizing that her golden thread was extraordinary.The golden thread was entirely made of pure gold. To obtain gold of the required purity and melt it down, Yan Yan had expended considerable effort.She had also spent a lot of time finding the most skilled goldsmith, who could hammer the gold into threads as fine as hair.Without looking closely, one would only see a flash of golden light in the air, unable to discern what it actually was.But the golden thread alone was not enough.Pulse diagnosis through a suspended thread relies on sensing the vibrations transmitted along the silk thread to analyze the patient's condition.But how could Yan Yan, a person from a high-dimensional alternate world, possibly use such traditional methods to treat illnesses?After obtaining the golden thread, Yan Yan purchased tools and modified it herself, embedding millimeter-sized chips at both ends for medical detection.The chips were also acquired with money. Their original millimeter-scale size was entirely inadequate, but she successfully miniaturized them to the required level.In her own world, Yan Yan was known as the "Tech Maniac." The things she was working on now were basically elementary school-level crafts from after-school activities. Even with limited materials, she could maximize their utility.Over the past few days, she had expended considerable effort on these preparations, even losing sleep over them.She thought to herself that if Feng Xiao dared not take the treatment seriously and wasted her efforts, she would definitely make him regret it!Peering through the one-way transparent screen, Yan Yan observed Feng Xiao's languid expression and sighed softly.The original host truly lacked discernment—to treat such a handsome man with such hostility. If it were her… she would definitely find a way to get closer to him.Not for any other reason, but simply to admire that face every day—a face that perfectly aligned with her aesthetic preferences and delighted her in every way.She also openly admitted that her desire to treat Feng Xiao was partly due to his appearance, aside from the fact that he had helped her.Good-looking people always received a bit of special treatment from Yan Yan."Divine Healer, are you ready? If you don't start the treatment soon… I don't have time to waste with you."Awakened by the voice, Yan Yan noticed that Feng Xiao had already tied the golden thread around his pale wrist bone.A man with skin more porcelain-white than most women, yet without appearing effeminate or frail.Instead, it added a touch of allure that made one want to possess him further and do something to him.Realizing she was about to lose focus because of him again, Yan Yan quickly concentrated her mind and began probing his physical condition through the golden thread.The chip embedded at the other end of the thread provided real-time feedback. Yan Yan only needed to glance at her phone to access more detailed information about Feng Xiao's health.You Lan, however, didn't notice what Yan Yan was doing. He simply felt her approach was far too casual, showing no signs of conducting a proper diagnosis.But soon enough, Yan Yan had her results. She handed her phone to You Lan, allowing him to clearly see the various data displayed on the screen.After a moment of silence.You Lan once again began questioning his life: "??"He rubbed his eyes, unable to believe what he was seeing. What was going on!!Seeing him take so long to snap out of it, Yan Yan frowned and silently threatened, "Stop dawdling!"Though theoretically the elder, You Lan didn't dare resist the young girl's threat. He could only relay the information as prompted by the data to Feng Xiao."After the treatment, your body's various indicators remain far below normal levels. Based on your pulse readings, you should be experiencing symptoms such as chest tightness and palpitations.""Are you currently feeling drowsy, with occasional numbness in your limbs?"These were all symptoms of chemical poisoning. Although they had lessened significantly, they still lingered in Feng Xiao's body.Looking at these physical indicators, Yan Yuan could understand why he basically spent every day lying lethargically on that old armchair."I do have the symptoms you mentioned. So, how do you plan to treat me?"Feng Xiao suddenly sighed with a heavy heart: "For the treatment, I've already exhausted all my savings. I have no money left."Yuan Yuan: I have money!
