"Yes!" The man hung up the phone and couldn't help but glance at the back of Ye Tianfan again, his eyebrows full of complex emotions.
At this moment, after leaving the noodle shop, Ye Tianfan did not return directly to the university. Instead, he hailed a taxi and headed straight for Jiangzhou City First People's Hospital.
Elder Qin from the Qin Family was still lying in the intensive care unit. Although Elder Ye had set three restrictions for Ye Tianfan, forbidding him to use the Ye Family's medical skills before the age of twenty-four, Elder Qin was a sworn brother of Elder Ye. If he really died like this, Elder Ye would probably be furious, and Ye Tianfan wouldn't be able to explain himself. Thinking of his grandfather's manner of punishing him, Ye Tianfan couldn't help but shiver. He got out of the taxi and headed straight to the hospital.
Meanwhile, in the hospital, Elder Qin's body was already covered with various tubes, and a bunch of medical devices worked tirelessly day and night. The chief doctor, wearing a white coat, glanced inside through the glass window of the ICU, and couldn't help but shake his head constantly, sighing.
"What's the use of the Qin Family's wealth? No matter how much you earn, King Yama will still drag you into the coffin."
A nurse hurried over with a medical record and said, "Director, I'm afraid Elder Qin is not going to make it. Multiple organ failure, rapid breathing, and adrenaline has been used to its limit. If no miracle happens, he might have only a few hours left. Should we notify the family to prepare early?"
The director took the medical record from the nurse and sighed again. In medicine, what miracle is there really? Those who are dying often hope for a miracle, not realizing that everyone has their time when the oil runs dry and the lamp goes out.
Faced with Elder Qin's medical condition, this top medical director in China could only shake his head and sigh since all medical means had been exhausted.
"Let's go, follow me to the office, and double-check the medical records. If there's no problem, we'll inform the Qin Family to prepare the funeral."
Saying this, the director and the nurse left the ward and headed towards the doctor's office.
But just as the two of them turned and walked into the office, Ye Tianfan's figure flashed into the intensive care unit like a ghost.
Looking at Elder Qin on the hospital bed, Ye Tianfan couldn't help but frown. He slowly placed his hand on Elder Qin's wrist, closing his eyes slightly, feeling his weak pulse.
"Alas, life and death are fated, Elder, you're already at the end of your rope, why linger in this world!"
Saying this, Ye Tianfan shook his head again, took out a small wooden box about the size of a palm from his pocket, and inside were three pale green round pills.
"If it weren't for your sworn brotherhood with my grandfather, I wouldn't be willing to give you the Ye Family's Life-extending Pill. This is the treasure of the Ye Family! Consider it your bargain."
With words full of reluctance, Ye Tianfan took out one pill from the wooden box, and placed it in Elder Qin's mouth. The pill dissolved instantly, turning into a faint green liquid that slipped directly into Elder Qin's throat.
This Life-extending Pill is one of the Ye Family's seventy-six secret techniques, with a refining method known to be extremely complicated. Elder Ye spent his entire life and only managed to refine three pills.
And even though Elder Qin was at the end of his life, with the Ye Family's medical skills, it was enough to turn the tide. If it weren't for the Ye Family's three restrictions, forbidding him to use medical skills before twenty-four, Ye Tianfan would never use this pill to save someone. As the saying goes, "good steel is used on the knife's edge," this Life-extending Pill is a treasure to be used in critical times!
Watching Elder Qin's complexion gradually return to a healthy shade, Ye Tianfan, though heartbroken, couldn't help but show a slight smile, whispering, "As expected of the Ye Family's treasure, this Life-extending Pill has an immediate effect once ingested! It's enough to extend your life by half a year."
As soon as he finished speaking, the previously comatose Elder Qin suddenly showed a reaction, his fingers moving slightly. The heart monitor also displayed activity, with blood pressure, heartbeat, and pulse almost instantly returning to normal.
Before long, Elder Qin slowly opened his eyes, but by that time, Ye Tianfan had already left Elder Qin's ward.
Outside the hospital entrance, Ye Tianfan hummed a tune, hailed a taxi, and returned to Kyoto University before dawn. The night's events left Ye Tianfan feeling a bit sleepy. He glanced at his watch, noting there were two hours left before morning classes. By hurrying back to the dorm, he could still catch some sleep.
Just as Ye Tianfan pushed open the dormitory door, he suddenly sensed something was off!
Lin Xiaofeng hadn't slept yet! He stood straight next to his bed, his body tense. When he saw Ye Tianfan come in, he immediately started winking and signaling as if trying to convey some message.
Ye Tianfan couldn't help but frown and realized that not only Lin Xiaofeng but even the other two roommates were doing the same thing, standing straight and winking at him.
"What's up, guys? Got a stiff neck? Or did you overdo it with the ladies and end up weak-kneed?"
Ye Tianfan walked into the dorm and suddenly heard Qin Ruomeng's voice: "Ye Tianfan, you're finally back!"
Qin Ruomeng's voice made Ye Tianfan pause instinctively and he blurted out, "Oh my God! Qin Ruomeng! What are you doing in our men's dormitory in the middle of the night? Your behavior is no different from a brave man intruding on a widow's village!"
Qin Ruomeng slowly sat up from Ye Tianfan's bed, put down the magazine in her hand, and stared at him with a resentful look, coldly saying, "You don't know why I'm here? Be honest, were you fooling around with that woman surnamed Huang?"
Ye Tianfan raised an eyebrow and with a cheeky grin, said, "Yes! I was fooling around with her!" Then he clutched his waist and added, "I can't take it, my waist is about to break, I'm exhausted, I need some sleep."
Qin Ruomeng's almond eyes filled with anger as she asked, "Were you with her the whole time for those hours?"
"What? Do you want me to tell you all the details, bit by bit?"
Ye Tianfan's words were like a bombshell, making Qin Ruomeng's face instantly ice over! In terms of looks, temperament, family background, she was superior to Huang Xiaorou! And she even had a marriage contract with Ye Tianfan! Yet he wouldn't even touch her and went for Huang Xiaorou instead? This made Qin Ruomeng furious and angry!
But Ye Tianfan didn't care about any of this; he only had one goal, to anger Qin Ruomeng and drive her away, preventing her from pestering him. He pulled her arm, trying to drag her off his bed, not noticing his roommates staring in disbelief!
Qin Ruomeng!
The number one beauty at Kyoto University!
So many dreamed of having her lie in their bed, even if only to leave a trace of her warmth. Yet, Ye Tianfan, ignorant of appreciating beauty, had such a goddess lying on his bed, and he didn't realize the value! Absolutely wasteful!
At this moment, Lin Xiaofeng, smiling widely, looked at Qin Ruomeng and spoke up, "Miss Qin, if you don't mind, you can sleep on my bed." As he spoke, Lin Xiaofeng patted his waist, adding, "Don't worry, my waist is in great shape!"
"Get lost!" Qin Ruomeng, in a fit of anger, glared at Ye Tianfan, not sparing a glance at Lin Xiaofeng, and issued a single word that dealt a heavy blow to Lin Xiaofeng.
Seeing Lin Xiaofeng's defeat, the other two roommates began to try their luck, too. After all, Qin Ruomeng was not only the top beauty at Kyoto University but also the heir to the Qin Group. Any chance to get closer wouldn't be missed. Now that the campus beauty was in their dorm, not doing anything would be a waste! Which toad wouldn't want to eat swan meat? Even if the swan meat is frozen, if there's a chance, they would bite it! This golden opportunity was one no one wanted to pass up, so the two roommates began to fawn over her.
"Um, Miss Qin, how about sleeping on my bed?"
"Mine's fine too. The sheets and duvet cover are newly changed."
Faced with the enthusiastic roommates, Qin Ruomeng remained unmoved, not even bothering to speak to them, her eyes fixated on Ye Tianfan as she said, "Aren't you claiming you're exhausted? Want a rest?"
"Yes!"
"Then sleep! Let me fix your waist!"
Qin Ruomeng gritted her teeth, saying the final words with fierce determination, then lay back on the bed, shifting her body to make room for Ye Tianfan, and patted the bed with determined eyes as cold as ice.
