Chapter 271: Chapter 270: Pulse Diagnosis (5/5)

Ye Xin saw Wei Xueqing’s expression, and her heart sank; the smile on her face slowly faded.

"How is it? Darling, say something!" Ye Xin forced a smile and asked.

Wei Xueqing was startled, looked up at Ye Xin in surprise, and said in a flustered voice, "Huh? Oh! You mean this! This..."

After a while, Wei Xueqing regained her composure, glared at Ye Xin, and jokingly scolded, "Shameless you, saying such things to me!"

Ye Xin shrugged and said, "You’re my only best friend, who else would I tell if not you? Just imagine, if I got completely taken advantage of by a big rascal, and he left, I’d have nowhere to cry to!"

"Then don’t give him that chance, see his sincerity, observe his actions. Men, once they’ve had their way, they stop cherishing." Wei Xueqing pursed her lips and said.

"You’re right!" Ye Xin nodded.

She thought for a moment and said, "By the way, you haven’t said yet, what do you think of Yang Chen?"

Hearing this question, Wei Xueqing’s gaze flickered, and she stood up, saying, "I’ve finished washing, hurry up too, it’s already two in the morning."

After saying that, Wei Xueqing rinsed herself off, wrapped up in a towel, and walked out.

Ye Xin watched as Wei Xueqing walked out of the bathroom, and couldn’t help but lie back in the bathtub, letting out a deep sigh.

...

The next day, Yang Chen, as usual, made breakfast for them, then exercised alone in the yard.

Today, Wei Xueqing woke up very early, standing on the second-floor windowsill, watching Yang Chen repetitively perform machine-like movements, his clothes soaked with sweat.

In a daze, Wei Xueqing felt that Yang Chen was like a horse, the strongest wild horse on the vast grasslands, capable of leading the herd galloping, facing head-on through stormy weather.

No one could tame him, much less keep him.

Because he lived on the grasslands, he belonged to the vast expanse of the world.

Wei Xueqing stood on the balcony for a long time, only leaving when Ye Xin got up.

...

After Yang Chen showered, the two were already seated at the table eating breakfast.

After finishing the meal, Yang Chen picked up the keys, ready to take Wei Xueqing away.

But Wei Xueqing stopped Yang Chen, took the keys from his hand, and said, "You don’t need to take me anymore, now that you’re no longer my bodyguard, I need to get used to life without one."

Wei Xueqing smiled, shook the keys in her hand towards Yang Chen, and said, "Thank you for taking care of me during this time!"

She turned, glanced over Yang Chen’s shoulder at Ye Xin sitting at the table, and said to both of them, "Ye Xin is my best friend, and Yang Chen, just as you said, even though you’re no longer my bodyguard, you’re still my friend. As a friend, I’m very grateful to you. Having two genuine friends like you is my honor."

Yang Chen looked at Wei Xueqing, feeling a sense of strangeness.

Is this still the domineering CEO from before?

Yang Chen frowned, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Are you... sure you can handle it?"

"Don’t worry!" Wei Xueqing said, "I still have to wait for the court case, to see Liu Chengpeng and their painful and regretful expressions when they’re sentenced!"

Yang Chen looked seriously at Wei Xueqing, realizing she had truly matured and grown a lot.

He nodded and softly said, "Then take care on the road."

Wei Xueqing waved goodbye to both of them and left alone.

Yang Chen turned around to see Ye Xin’s face full of smiles.

Yang Chen smiled wryly and said, "Quite hard to get used to."

Ye Xin propped her head with her hand and said, "Isn’t it good to be sensible?"

"It’s good... it’s just..." Yang Chen sighed, "the cost was too great."

Ye Xin was stunned, the smile disappearing from her face, revealing an expression of heartache.

Yang Chen sat down, Ye Xin held Yang Chen’s hand softly and said, "Darling, you don’t need to worry too much. Everyone has their own fate, and we can’t resist destiny."

Yang Chen shook his head, gently stroking Ye Xin’s hair, and said, "It’s not that. Our fate is in our own hands. If you don’t even have the courage to fight fate, how can you control your own life?"

Ye Xin smiled faintly, "I believe heaven has it arranged."

Yang Chen shook his head slightly.

After a while, Yang Chen said to Ye Xin, "Give me your hand."

"Why?" Ye Xin extended her hand, looking at Yang Chen curiously.

Yang Chen said in a serious tone, "You’ve been back for so long, and I haven’t had time to ask how your injury is. Let me take a look."

Hearing this, Ye Xin immediately retracted her hand, pouting, and said, "I’m... I’m fine now!"

The renowned Fire Phoenix, a goddess at the pinnacle of the intelligence community, who had executed countless top missions and played numerous roles without exposure, was now so nervous lying in front of Yang Chen.

"Give it to me!" Yang Chen glared and said sternly.

Ye Xin glanced up at Yang Chen, seeing his stern expression and serious eyes, she slowly extended her hand.

If anyone familiar with Ye Xin saw this scene, they would be shocked speechless. The infamous Fire Phoenix obeying a man’s command so meekly was nothing short of a miracle.

Yang Chen placed his fingers on Ye Xin’s smooth jade-like wrist, quietly feeling her pulse.

To be honest, Ye Xin’s pulse was hard to detect and very peculiar, beating very irregularly.

After a while, Yang Chen furrowed his brows and said to Ye Xin, "Why is your Internal Fire so strong?"

"Huh? That’s normal, isn’t it? What’s wrong with strong fire?" Ye Xin hurriedly said.

Yang Chen frowned and said, "Fool, what if you burn yourself out?"

Yang Chen stood up, held Ye Xin’s small face, opened her eyelids, and checked her eyes, only then did he seem somewhat relieved.

Ye Xin looked nervously at Yang Chen.

Yang Chen sat down, saying, "It’s okay, your body doesn’t show any reactions, just that the fire is strong. Besides, your pulse is scattered, your body’s meridians should also have major problems, right?"

"I don’t think so?" Ye Xin felt herself, internally everything seemed normal, without any hindrance.

Yang Chen furrowed his brows, lightly tapping the table with his fingers, and after pondering for a while, said, "Then tell me, what did the doctor diagnose you with?"

Ye Xin thought about it, looking into Yang Chen’s earnest eyes, so she didn’t dare hide anything, and slowly said, "Before coming back, I was executing a mission abroad... As for what mission, I can’t tell you. What I can say is, this mission was really tough, and very dangerous. I was on the run for a long time, and I killed many people. After coming back, I became very irritable, even injuring our own people, and almost... almost killed them. The professor who specialized in my case said, this might be a form of post-war syndrome, something like aggression, because long periods of killing created an irritable emotion in the psyche and nerves, one that bursts out uncontrollably, making people lose control."

Yang Chen furrowed his brows tightly, this situation was very similar to that of a comrade from before.

"This illness doesn’t stem from the body’s internal system; it’s rooted in psychology and nerves. Hence, it’s tough to control. The professor developed medication and an injection for me, the effect is quite good, currently under control. I think it should be alright." Ye Xin looked at Yang Chen, her last sentence in a low voice, as if murmuring to herself.
