Even as a "normie," I'm completely oblivious to it.

He confirmed his earlier guess.

Although Lu Yao's expression was still not very rich, it was a completely different change compared to before.

Her face was an unnatural flush, as if she were drunk.

Not only that, her breathing was noticeably rapid and intermittent, as if she were enduring something.

Even more outrageous, her legs were trembling. This girl, who had trained in various martial arts skills since childhood and could hold a horse stance all day without trembling, was now...

It was actually trembling incessantly.

"Young Master... um... I... am sick... I feel unwell..."

"Oh, I'm sorry!"

Yu Zhe immediately let go of her hand!

Lu Yao almost collapsed onto the bed, but luckily Lu Ling was prepared and helped her up.

no...

You're not sick at all.

You're not sick, I'm sick.

No, I'm not sick!

In short, Yu Zhe's thoughts are a bit confused right now. Given the situation just now... we can immediately rule out the possibility that Lu Yao was acting.

Because this girl with no connections or background couldn't possibly have such acting skills.

I have to admit... it's really too arousing!

The sight of Sanwu breaking down and losing his composure struck Yu Zhe hard in the heart, directly hitting his excitement point.

Damn it... Lu Ling, is this what you wanted?!

Yu Zhe forcefully suppressed the excitement surging through his body and used his strong self-control to banish Lu Yao's expression from his mind.

Then he muttered to himself, "There really is such a thing... This is too..."

"Young Master..." Lu Yao's expression remained blank, but a tear welled up in the corner of her eye. "Is it... serious? How much longer... is it...?"

"Lu Ling, what is your sister saying?"

"Young master, she was asking if her illness was serious and how much longer she could live."

"It's not that serious! No...it's not an illness at all!"

Yu Zhe had come to terms with reality. Although he felt it was absurd for such a thing to happen in real life, he still explained it to Lu Yao out of a sense of responsibility.

"Lu Yao, this is just because your ears are overly sensitive. It's probably because the nerves in that area are more densely packed than normal. Anyway, it's not a disease. If you have to say, it could be considered a congenital developmental deformity. Like some people are born with six fingers, which isn't a disease either. Well, yours is milder than those, and it doesn't interfere with your daily life at all. Don't worry, you've been living a normal life all these years, haven't you?"

"Ah...I see..."

Lu Yao trusted Yu Zhe's words completely. She had no doubts and nodded, trying to sit up straight.

effort...?

Why is it so difficult for you to sit up?!

Lu Ling noticed Yu Zhe's confusion, so she explained it to Lu Yao.

"Young Master, my sister just... because you touched her ear, she slightly... well, according to what I read in the book, girls are more delicate after that, and the aftereffects last longer, so it might take her a few more minutes to recover..."

"stop?!"

What?

What did you mean by "that"?

Yu Zhe probably knew what she meant, but he couldn't believe it at all.

Seriously?! Sensitive as you are, this is really going too far! Doesn't this affect your daily life? Your hair probably bumps into things when you walk around all the time!

Lu Yao blushed slightly and whispered something in Lu Ling's ear.

Lu Ling nodded repeatedly, indicating that she understood her sister's words.

Wow... it's really rare for Lu Yao to speak in a low voice.

Yu Zhe, on the contrary, became a little curious.

But he certainly couldn't ask about the sisters' private conversations.

But just because he didn't ask doesn't mean Lu Ling wouldn't tell.

After Lu Yao finished speaking, Lu Ling immediately relayed her message.

“Young Master, my sister is a little embarrassed to tell you this, but I'll relay what she just said. She said she's relieved if it's not an illness, but it's strange. Normally, she doesn't react when she touches her ear, but sometimes if I accidentally touch it, or if she accidentally touches a plush toy or a wool sweater, she feels something is off. But just now, when Young Master touched it, the feeling seemed to be amplified hundreds of times and was uncontrollable. Could you please tell me why?”

"..."

Yes, those words before were probably Lu Yao's own description.

But do you believe that Lu Ling added the last line, "What is the reason for this?" herself?

But... I see. So that's why it doesn't affect daily life?

Even...

This is even more outrageous!

60. Increase the difficulty of explanation

Hey, look at Lu Ling's smug look. Does she really think I can't retaliate against her if I don't say anything?

Yu Zhe shrugged, feigning helplessness, and laughed.

"Well, there's nothing we can do about it. She has a special constitution, and it's just that I'm the only one who gets an extra boost from her. Well, there's nothing we can do about it. Lu Ling, now that you know about this, make sure your sister is careful not to hurt her ears. If the nerves are really dense, it would be very dangerous to hurt them. Also, I need to be 'especially careful' and make sure she never runs into me again. After all, you said it yourself, my constitution is quite special to hers."

"!"

Lu Ling's heart skipped a beat.

Oh no... Young Master is indirectly rejecting them...

That being the case.

Young master, if you are heartless, don't blame me for being unjust.

Lu Ling sat up from the edge of the bed and pointed to her own ear: "Young Master, actually my sister and I have the same constitution. My ears are just like hers, and we also suffer from ear problems."

"So... what's next?"

Yu Zhe was taken aback, and somewhat disbelieving. Goodness, you're just like her?

Even twin sisters can't be exactly the same in every way!

"It's really hard to talk about... but if it's you, young master, I think you can understand me. It's like this, I looked up some information about this online before, and it's true, as you said, it's not an illness and it doesn't affect daily life, but sometimes when I accidentally touch something fluffy, it feels like I've been shocked by static electricity, which is very bothersome... Ugh, I'm fine, but I don't want my sister to suffer, she won't get better."

She's easy to talk to, and even when she's in pain, she just bears it herself.

Yu Zhe was increasingly confused: "Lu Ling, what exactly are you trying to say?"

Lu Yao looked at her younger sister, completely bewildered.

Even if it's a little, it doesn't seem to bother me as much as she said... Except for when the young master's hand pinched me just now, I basically can't feel it.

Ignoring her disappointing older sister, Lu Ling unleashed her trump card.

"I looked up some solutions for my symptoms, and they actually exist. There are people who were born with sensitive ears but became normal later in life. They said the secret is to give your ears some stimulation every day. It doesn't need to be for a long time, just like a massage for a minute. If you persist for a month, the sensitivity will decrease until it returns to normal."

"What kind of unreliable experience sharing is this!"

Yu Zhe couldn't help but complain, "The solution you found is like searching for a doctor on a search engine—it's like courting death!"

Believe it or not, if you type "cold" into a search engine, the doctors there will all say you have a terminal illness.

In short, it's extremely unreliable!

Ah, I'm getting ahead of myself.

So Yu Zhe still doesn't know what this has to do with him?

Lu Ling secretly curled the corners of her mouth into a smile, but immediately suppressed it, her expression instantly transforming into a pitiful, almost pleading look.

"Young Master...we can only ask you for help with this. Experience tells us that the most sensitive factor is the one to the reaction. The contact between your ear and hers just now has shown me that the most suitable factor is the touch of your hand!"

"Are you telling a fairy tale?!"

It turned out to be the case.

This was all foreshadowing from the very beginning; Lu Ling's ultimate goal today is just this sentence!

Even though Yu Zhe didn't believe her obviously purposeful statement at all, Lu Ling had already mustered up her courage and approached step by step.

Incidentally, she also forcefully pulled Lu Yao, who was standing to the side in a daze, in front of Yu Zhe.

If I don't lend you a hand, you won't be able to operate it yourself!

The two, who looked almost identical except for their expressions, were positioned slightly in front of each other, with Lu Ling maintaining a pleading expression as she spoke.

"Young master... I'm begging you, please help us! It won't be too much trouble, you just need to touch our ears once a day for about a minute. If you can... we don't need our wages!"

Don't just throw around asking for no salary! You should keep it!

The two of them walked forward, while Yu Zhe walked backward.

Until there is nowhere left to retreat.

His waist was already touching the desk behind him.

Tsk.

Speaking of which...

It was only then that Yu Zhe realized a problem.

Why do I need to return it?

Whether or not we can accept them doesn't depend on whether we help them with "this favor." On the contrary, if we directly refuse now, it might encourage the clever Lu Ling to think of more radical solutions.

It's best to go along with them for now.

The spring cannot be compressed to the bottom, otherwise it will bounce back and hit someone.

Yu Zhe understood this principle well.
