Reborn as a True Heiress and Becomes a Boss

Chapter 45 An Elderly Man's Heart Attack Relapse
"Ugh!" The two of them vomited in disgust.

"Hold it in, don't throw up!" If you throw up, all your efforts will be wasted.

The two instinctively covered their mouths and forced themselves to swallow. After swallowing, they collapsed onto the chairs, utterly exhausted. The taste was terrifying; not only was it foul, but it was also incredibly unpalatable. They felt like they were about to throw up the food they had eaten the night before.

Fan Ruichen subtly placed one index finger under his nose; the smell was indeed a bit terrifying.

"Good medicine tastes bitter, you'll get used to it eventually," Yang Nianqing comforted her. Actually, she had many other medicinal herbs with different effects, but for some reason, although the effects of the herbs she made were good, the taste was never as good as Gu Lang's, even though Gu Lang was a very good cook.

Guan Yu and Qin Lan were both inwardly in tears. If it were just bitter, it would be fine, but this wasn't bitter at all. The taste was a nightmare. Ugh, just thinking about it made them want to vomit.

"Cough, cough!" Fan Ruichen coughed a few times. He put his hands down and asked, "How are you feeling now?"

Guan Yu and Qin Lan sat up straight and silently felt their abdomens. "It feels warm in my lower abdomen."

Guan Yu nodded in agreement.

“That’s the lower dantian,” Yang Nianqing said. It seems that there is no problem with using the pill in this way. The basic cultivation manual for supernatural abilities that she tricked from Kong Tingting is still very useful. If she hadn’t understood those principles, she wouldn’t have dared to give the pill to ordinary people.

The two nodded in sudden realization; so the dantian was divided into upper and lower parts.

As time passed, the two women could clearly feel the changes in their bodies. Guan Yu's foot gradually stopped hurting, while Qin Lan, whose injury was on her face, showed the most obvious recovery. Her swollen face slowly went down, and her complexion gradually returned to a rosy hue, as if she had never been injured at all.

Qin Lan took out her phone, switched to selfie mode, and used the phone as a mirror to look at her face. Sure enough, her face was completely undamaged. It was truly amazing; this skill was comparable to that of a deity.

Guan Yu stepped onto the field and performed a set of punches. At the end, she delivered a powerful high kick with her right leg, sending the sandbag flying high into the air. The sandbag, pulled back by gravity, landed heavily. Guan Yu lightly jumped away, looking at her knee—it had actually recovered! This ability was incredible!
Fan Ruichen was also somewhat surprised. It seemed that what Yang Nianqing said, that she was equivalent to an all-around superpowered person, was true. But a common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime. If the world knew about Yang Nianqing's abilities, how dangerous would her situation be? He would feel at ease if more people protected Yang Nianqing. He was absolutely at ease with Qin Lan's loyalty. Yang Nianqing had saved Guan Yu's nephew, so her loyalty should also be guaranteed.

Guan Yu walked up to Yang Nianqing excitedly and said, "Miss Qing, you are amazing."

Yang Nianqing quietly took a small step back; the smell of the medicine she made did indeed seem a bit horrifying. "How about we go to the restroom to wash up?"

Guan Yu paused for a moment, then exhaled a sigh of relief. "Ugh, the smell is really strong," she thought. Guan Yu called Qin Lan to go to the restroom with her.

Yang Nianqing told Fan Ruichen to wait there, and then she followed the two of them to the restroom.

When she came out of the restroom, she saw Guan Yu and Qin Lan still frantically rinsing their mouths at the sink. She shook her head with amusement and told the two of them that she would go out first and wait for them outside. Guan Yu and Qin Lan gave her an OK sign.

Yang Nianqing strolled around after coming out. The place was decorated quite nicely, with a magnificent and opulent feel.

As Yang Nianqing reached the corner, an elderly man collapsed in front of her. She quickly caught him; the old man's eyes were closed, he was clutching his chest, and he was breathing rapidly—typical symptoms of a recurring heart attack.

"Old man? Old man?" Yang Nianqing called out several times, but received no response. Yang Nianqing checked the old man's pulse with her right hand; the pulse was rapid, indicating a dangerous situation. She looked around; this was a blind spot for the surveillance cameras. If she didn't help soon, the old man would be in grave danger. Yang Nianqing took out a wooden box from her spatial bracelet. This box contained a medicinal formula she had crafted using the Pure Heart Fruit and Wind Spirit Grass from the secret realm, specifically for heart-related ailments, and its medicinal properties were relatively mild.

Yang Nianqing stuffed the black pill into the old man's mouth and activated her spiritual power to help him refine it. The pill melted instantly in his mouth under the catalysis of the spiritual power. Under the nurturing of the spiritual power, the old man's body continuously absorbed the medicinal properties of the pill. For some reason, although the old man was old, she felt that his ability to absorb pills was much better than that of Guan Yu and Qin Lan. Was it because she was using her spiritual power to catalyze it?
As time passed, the old man's breathing gradually calmed down, and Yang Nianqing breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't see the old man's eyes slightly open, but then she heard footsteps approaching. Yang Nianqing gently put the old man down and quickly retreated to a secluded spot around the corner.

A young man walked over, saw the old man lying on the ground, rushed forward, helped him up, and anxiously called out, "Grandpa!"

Several men in suits ran up behind them. "Old Minister? What's going on?"

"He might be having a heart attack. Call an ambulance right away," the young man said anxiously.

"okay!"

When Guan Yu and Qin Lan came out, they saw Yang Nianqing hiding and observing something. Guan Yu asked in confusion, "Miss Qing, what's wrong?"

Yang Nianqing made a shushing gesture with her index finger to her lips.

Guan Yu and Qin Lan nodded.

Yang Nianqing watched as the young man carried the old man away before emerging from his hiding place.

"Young Madam, why do we have to hide?" Qin Lan asked, scratching her head.

Yang Nianqing brushed a stray strand of hair behind her ear. "That old man just had a heart attack. I gave him some magic medicine, and he should be fine now. To avoid unnecessary trouble, he's probably still hiding." After all, she understood the principle that "a common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime." Although she wasn't afraid, it was better to keep a low profile if it was too troublesome.

The two nodded knowingly. It was their first time being bodyguards, and they were still inexperienced. They had been away from Yang Nianqing for so long. They couldn't let this happen again. The two secretly made up their minds.

The ambulance arrived, and the young man got in. The accompanying doctor took out a stethoscope and listened carefully to the old man's heartbeat, asking, "Does the old man have any medical history?"

"He has a heart condition, and he probably had a heart attack, which is why he passed away. Doctor, is my grandfather alright?" the young man asked.

The doctor listened carefully to the elderly man's heartbeat, which was stable. The monitoring device attached to the man also showed normal data. The doctor said with doubt, "The elderly man's heartbeat and blood pressure are all normal. It doesn't look like a relapse of heart disease. Let's take him to the hospital for a more thorough examination."

The young man nodded in agreement, and the doctor then looked down and fiddled with the monitoring equipment on the old man's body.

Yang Nianqing then led the two back to the previous arena.

"Why did it take you so long to get back?" Fan Ruichen took Yang Nianqing's hand.

Yang Nianqing told him what had just happened. Fan Ruichen nodded. Yang Nianqing was too kind; she couldn't possibly stand by and watch someone die. But sometimes, people's hearts can be terrifying. He told Yang Nianqing to just be happy and be herself, and he would protect her. Fan Ruichen also instructed Qin Lan and the other woman to make sure they protected Yang Nianqing well.

The two nodded in agreement.
