Online dating backfired? A wealthy heir begged me to continue lying to him.

Su Ruan stared wide-eyed.

I only came to my senses when I felt someone gently pinch my hand.

Turning her head, she saw Lu Yanci's resentful face and couldn't help but laugh.

Su Ruan admitted that Lu Yanci's face was indeed outstanding, and his figure was also top-notch.

But soldiers are different.

Energetic, vibrant, powerful, and masculine—it exudes a strong sense of male hormones.

The same figures, the same movements, each row is a sight to behold.

It's hard not to admire it.

The car drove in and soon stopped in front of a building.

Someone was waiting there; it was a middle-aged doctor wearing a white coat.

As soon as Wen Yubai got out of the car, the doctor came to greet him.

"You must be Dr. Wen. Thank you for your hard work!"

He then looked at Su Ruan, "And this Miss Su, thank you for your help!"

As for Lu Yanci, the doctor didn't even glance at him.

Wen Yubai didn't waste any words, "Where is the patient? Take us there quickly."

The doctor nodded, turned and led the way, "Follow me."

Su Ruan followed behind Wen Yubai.

This was her first time visiting a military hospital; it was so different from other hospitals.

In addition to doctors and nurses in white coats, there were also guards in military uniforms.

The place they were going to even had guard checkpoints set up by soldiers who would check their documents before letting them in.

Su Ruan was no longer afraid at this point and dutifully took out her ID card.

But when it was Lu Yanci's turn, the sentry said that he had not reported it.

Lu Yanci's face turned ashen; he knew it was Wen Yubai's doing.

Wen Yubai didn't even turn his head. After Su Ruan's verification was successful, he simply walked away.

Su Ruan turned around and stopped.

"Excuse me, comrade, can't he come in?"

Su Ruan was calling out to the middle-aged doctor who had welcomed them in.

The fact that he wasn't surprised to see Lu Yanci meant that he knew there were three of them.

I just don't know how Wen Yubai introduced Lu Yanci.

The middle-aged doctor stopped in his tracks, his brows furrowing slightly.

"He is not a medical worker and is not allowed to come in according to regulations."

"He can wait on the bench outside."

Can't I come in?

Su Ruan was at her wit's end.

Wen Yubai looked up at the sky, clearly unwilling to help.

Not wanting to put Su Ruan in a difficult position, Lu Yanci smiled slightly and said, "It's alright, I'll wait for you on the bench outside."

The ward door is only 5 meters away, which isn't far.

And it's safe enough here.

Su Ruan finally nodded.

"Okay, I'll come find you when I'm done."

Although Su Ruan felt somewhat apologetic, she still followed Wen Yubai.

Two guards were also standing at the door of the ward.

This time, however, they didn't check their identification and just let the three of them in.

Pushing open the door, you enter a spacious, high-class VIP ward.

The outermost area is the reception area; the wards are only accessible through a partition door.

Several medical staff members were already waiting in the reception area.

"Dr. Wen is here? Thank you for your hard work!"

"This must be Dr. Wen's junior colleague. As expected, a great teacher produces a great student."

Regardless of Su Ruan's medical skills, her demeanor was undeniably aloof, and she showed no stage fright even when facing such powerful figures.

Actually, Su Ruan was just nervous.

She thought she was just following the middle-aged doctor to see the patients.

I didn't expect it to turn into a consultation with specialists.

The medical staff in the room were all quite old, and two or three of them even had gray hair.

Su Ruan had never seen anything like this before.

The body instinctively went into defense mode.

A doctor who seemed very tactful and good at socializing came over to greet her, and she simply nodded politely, controlling herself.

"Hello everyone!"

When Wen Yubai saw Su Ruan like this, his eyes revealed undisguised admiration.

As expected of someone his master had chosen, he was quick-witted, academically excellent, and his composure in the face of adversity was exactly what his master appreciated.

"Let's take a look at the patient first. I can't guarantee I can cure him."

"Of course, Dr. Su, just do your best."

Su Ruan realized that this was a huge problem, and she was desperate, so she decided to try anything.

Su Ruan also spotted a young soldier in the ranks.

His face was pale, and he looked like he was recovering from a serious illness.

His expression was just as cold as Wen Yubai's, but it was a coldness that was sharp and sculpted, very imposing, but not frightening.

It seems like it was right at the entrance, in the car that drove past them, that soldier they caught a fleeting glimpse of.

He stood quietly at the back of the line.

After Wen Yubai led Su Ruan into the ward, the others naturally gathered around the bed.

An elderly man lay peacefully asleep on the hospital bed.

His skin was an unnatural bluish-black, and even his fingernails were bluish-black.

To Su Ruan, an outsider, her first reaction was that he had been poisoned.

Wen Yubai's brows were also furrowed.

"How did you determine that?"

"The test revealed abnormalities in heavy metals, leading to diagnosis of heavy metal-induced multi-organ damage."

"We arranged for gastric lavage, hemodialysis, and chelation therapy to remove toxins, but the results were minimal, and the toxins continued to spread."

"What about traditional Chinese medicine methods?"

"We used emergency acupuncture to open the orifices, traditional detoxifying decoction, warm acupuncture, and regular ginger-separated moxibustion to try to support Yang. We also used a Chinese medicine retention enema and external bone-penetrating plaster."

After listening, Wen Yubai took the patient's pulse again.

Everyone is waiting for his result.

After a while, Wen Yubai loosened the patient's wrist.

He looked at Su Ruan and said, "Junior sister, come over and take her pulse too."

Su Ruan pointed to herself in great surprise, "Me?"

She has never taken anyone's pulse before; perhaps she doesn't even know it yet.

Wen Yubai nodded, "Come and give it a try."

Su Ruan glanced around discreetly and found that no one was trying to stop her from taking the pulse; instead, they were looking at her expectantly.

Su Ruan suddenly felt immense pressure.

She just came to take a look.

But now that Wen Yubai had forced him to sit down, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and sit down.

When Su Ruan placed her hand on the patient's pulse, she naturally pressed down on it with her fingers.

Her hands seemed to be able to take her pulse on their own.

However, this pulse failed to trigger any memories in her mind.

Su Ruan's brows furrowed.

Wen Yubai had been observing Su Ruan's expression the whole time.

"Junior sister, can you feel a deep pulse?"

Su Ruan nodded.

"What about the hesitant pulse?"

Su Ruan nodded again.

"What kind of heaviness? What kind of astringency?"

"Deep and solid like frozen jade, with a firm yet hesitant pulse."

Wen Yubai nodded.

The other TCM practitioners present, however, began to ponder.

Some people couldn't resist taking his pulse again.

After a long while, the man finally let go, and everyone asked, "How was it?"

The man nodded very lightly but with absolute certainty.

They hadn't misdiagnosed the pulse before, but Su Ruan's pulse description was also correct.

But after her description, the pulse seemed even more severe.

Everyone then looked at Wen Yubai.

"Is there any other way?"

Wen Yubai pondered for a moment before speaking, "There is a broken acupuncture technique that we could try."

"No!" someone immediately shouted to stop them.

He was one of the three white-haired old men.

"The patient's five internal organs are damaged and his vital energy is greatly depleted. It is still unknown whether the lesions can be eliminated by the acupuncture technique, but the patient will definitely not be able to endure it."
