Chapter 125: Chapter 123 Treating Tang Ying

Long Chen knew something terrible had happened the moment he heard the explosion from the Pill Furnace.

He and Jiang Tong hurriedly rushed into the basement.

The basement was a mess at this point.

Beside the cracked Pill Furnace, Tang Ying lay on the ground, unconscious, her face covered in blood and scorched by the flames, rendering her almost unrecognizable.

Even Long Chen found the sight heart-wrenching.

"Long Brother, what can we do?" Jiang Tong asked, tears streaming down her face, utterly frantic.

She and Tang Ying had lived together for several years.

Although they often bickered, their bond was very deep, not like sisters but better than sisters.

Now, seeing Tang Ying in such a tragic state, her face disfigured, Jiang Tong felt immense heartache.

Long Chen crouched down, lifted Tang Ying into his arms and softly told Jiang Tong, "Don’t be afraid, she’ll be okay."

Having said that, Long Chen quickly carried Tang Ying up to the third floor.

Jiang Tong followed closely behind, never leaving him, as her worry was palpable.

"Jiang Tong, wait at the door."

Long Chen carried Tang Ying into the room.

Tang Ying was still so young, she probably hadn’t even experienced love yet.

Long Chen would never let her face be permanently disfigured beyond salvation.

Upon entering the room, Long Chen immediately began to administer aid.

The severity of the injury was extreme; even if she were brought to a hospital now, although her life might be saved, her disfigured face could not.

But Long Chen could ensure both that Tang Ying wouldn’t be in life-threatening danger and wouldn’t suffer facial disfigurement.

However, even for Long Chen, the treatment took a considerable amount of time.

After a whole hour, Long Chen finished administering aid.

Jiang Tong at the door had been extremely anxious but had resisted the urge to knock.

"Jiang Tong, you can come in now."

Long Chen’s voice came from inside the room.

Unable to wait, Jiang Tong rushed into the room and saw that Tang Ying’s face, previously marred beyond recognition, was now completely restored without a trace of a scar.

Even her complexion seemed fairer than before.

This left Jiang Tong wide-eyed and in disbelief.

What was miraculous?

Who was a Divine Doctor?

Perhaps this was it!

"There’s not much wrong now, just rest well."

Long Chen spoke softly.

"Long Brother, are you okay?" Jiang Tong’s gaze shifted to Long Chen.

She noticed that Long Chen’s face was slightly pale and he was sweating profusely.

Immediately, Jiang Tong tenderly used a tissue to wipe his sweat.

Long Chen said, "I’m fine, tell me, how did the explosion happen?"

"Ying’er said she felt the process was too slow, so she added more herbs and increased the heat, which resulted in the explosion."

Jiang Tong gave a wry smile.

Um...

At that moment, Tang Ying on the bed groaned.

Then, she slowly opened her eyes.

After a brief moment of confusion, Tang Ying quickly regained consciousness and sat up, "Tongtong, is that batch of Elixir completely destroyed?"

"You were almost dead, and you’re still worried about that batch of Elixir?"

Jiang Tong glared sharply at Tang Ying, "I’ll go get you a glass of water, let Long Brother tell you."

Tang Ying didn’t dare to look at Long Chen, keeping her head down and spoke in a tearful voice, "Long Brother, I’m sorry, it’s my fault.

The batch of Elixir was worth at least one million, deduct it from my salary. Long Brother, I’ll be more careful next time."

"Girl, it’s not just one batch of Elixir, even a hundred batches wouldn’t be as important as you, understand?"

Long Chen spoke softly.

Tang Ying didn’t die on the spot, and Long Chen felt it was a stroke of incredible luck.

Tang Ying, seeing that Long Chen didn’t blame her, burst into tears, overwhelmed by emotion, and threw herself into Long Chen’s arms.

Long Chen gently patted Tang Ying on the back and smiled, "Stop crying, you’ve just been disfigured. Crying too hard could affect the condition of your skin."

"Ah? Disfigured?"

Tang Ying’s face turned pale with fear.

"Don’t worry, it’s already been healed by Brother Long. There’s no problem at all, in fact, your skin is even better than before—so soft and tender, it makes me want to get disfigured myself,"

Jiang Tong joked as she handed water to Tang Ying.

"Really? Let me check."

Tang Ying lifted the blanket and went to look in the mirror.

Upon seeing her own unharmed face in the mirror, Tang Ying finally felt relieved.

But she seemed to forget that she was currently unclothed.

Because Long Chen had not only healed the injuries on her face but had also healed the extensive skin injuries on her body, which required removing her clothes to treat.

"Ying’er, maybe... maybe you should just stay under the covers,"

Jiang Tong softly bit her lower lip, reminding Tang Ying.

"I feel completely fine now, Brother Long’s medical skills are really brilliant."

Tang Ying, immersed in her joy of not being disfigured, didn’t catch on at first.

But Jiang Tong became anxious and quietly said, "But you’re, well, not wearing anything. Don’t you feel a bit too cool?"

"Ah?"

Tang Ying looked down, then screamed and panic-stricken, dove back under the covers.

Long Chen gave a bitter smile and couldn’t help saying, "I had seen everything already when I was treating you, or else I would have left earlier."

"Brother Long, you... you you..."

Tang Ying clenched her hands, her face flushed red.

"Cough, just now I was only a doctor, and you were my patient, so don’t be shy. Think of it as a dream, and forget it,"

Long Chen chuckled dryly.

He suddenly realized that he shouldn’t have said what he just did.

"Brother Long, how can I forget that? Sob, did you see me at my ugliest?’

Tang Ying cried.

"What ’ugliest’?"

"When I was burned, I must’ve looked awful and you saw it, it must’ve been terrible."

"Who wouldn’t look bad being burned? But you look quite nice now that you’re healed," Long Chen said.

"But you saw me completely naked."

Tang Ying’s cheeks were burning.

"You’re not going to ask me to take responsibility, are you?"

Long Chen glared at Tang Ying.

Tang Ying shyly nodded, "Well... it’s not entirely impossible."

"Tsk tsk, Tang Ying, come on, if you like Brother Long just say it, but don’t try to threaten me like that."

Jiang Tong gave Tang Ying a look.

"Tongtong, don’t worry, sister is not going to abandon you, I know you like Brother Long more."

"Stop, just shut up."

Jiang Tong, red with embarrassment, quickly covered Tang Ying’s mouth.

"You two have a good chat, I’m going out."

Long Chen quickly made his exit.

He planned to wait until Tang Ying was fully healed and then properly educate Jiang Tong and Tang Ying about how to avoid explosions when using a Pill Furnace.

With Long Chen gone, Tang Ying immediately hugged Jiang Tong, whispering, "How did my body look just now?"

"Eh, what do you mean?" Jiang Tong was puzzled.

Tang Ying whispered, "I mean, do you think my body just now... was attractive to men?"

"Isn’t that obvious? So firm and so fair, definitely very attractive."

Jiang Tong giggled.

"But why do I feel like Brother Long was totally calm?"

Tang Ying sounded troubled.

"You’re being silly, to save you, his face even turned pale, where would he have the energy to think about anything else?"
