Reborn As Divine Doctor to Rule the World-Chapter 89 - 90: Should Appear and Should Not Appear
Chapter 89: Chapter 90: Should Appear and Should Not Appear
Yan Ze faintly smiled and replied, “There’s no serious issue, I’ve just been having trouble sleeping recently.”
Relieved, Shao He began to prepare the medicine, knowing he was alright. Moments later, after writing the prescription, she handed it over, “Take the medicine listed above and decoct it for drinking, but remember, do not drink too much!”
She instructed worriedly, “Boil three bowls down to one, and drink it half an hour before meals. Remember not to eat raw or cold food, and supplement your diet well.”
Yan Ze took the prescription, glanced at it, and nodded slightly in agreement.
Seeing this, Shao He spoke again, “How is his leg doing? It’s best to have him come over for treatment, but if that’s not convenient, we can do it at home in the evening.”
Upon hearing her suggestion, Yan Ze’s expression carried a hint of surprise.
...
Quickly, Shao He explained, “His leg condition had just started to improve a bit. If we stop the treatment now, all previous efforts will be wasted, so I’d like you to let him know.”
Upon hearing this, Yan Ze pondered for a moment and then nodded, agreeing to her request.
That evening, Shao He returned home and was surprised to see Pei Huaian in the courtyard holding a child and teasing him.
For some reason, seeing this scene, she felt an inexplicable feeling in her heart; she felt it was right for him to be there yet also felt it wasn’t.
“You’re back?” Pei Huaian seemed to sense someone behind him, lifted his head, and smiled at her.
Upon seeing this, Shao He snapped back to her senses, walked forward to take the child from him, and then asked, “Are you… doing alright?”
After speaking, she realized how abrupt her question was, coughed lightly, and turned to continue talking to Xiao Linzhang, using the conversation to cover up her awkwardness.
Pei Huaian lowered his eyelids, silent for a moment, then the corners of his lips curved up slightly in a gentle arc, his voice soft and mellow as jade, “Thank you for caring.”
Hearing his words, Shao He was slightly stunned for a moment, then she quickly lowered her eyelids to mask the change in her expression. Just then, the child suddenly started to cry, and Shao He hurriedly comforted him.
Xiao Linzhang struggled in her arms until Pei Huaian reached out, took the child, and held him.
In his arms, Xiao Linzhang was very well-behaved, lying still on his shoulder.
“Really a little ingrate,” Shao He muttered under her breath, unable to help rolling her eyes.
Xiao Linzhang remained lying on Pei Huaian’s shoulder, sleeping. Watching the sleeping child, Nanny Zhang took him and carried him back to the room.
In the courtyard, only the two of them were left, quiet and silent.
“Thank you.” After a long while, Pei Huaian was the first to break the silence, looking at Shao He across from him, his deep, dark eyes carrying an inscrutable expression.
Upon hearing this, Shao He raised an eyebrow, her lips curling into a smile, “Why do you keep saying thank you today?”
Pei Huaian pressed his lips together, looking at her for a long time, and said, “This time, thank you for seeing me.”

This caused Shao He to be slightly stunned, as if his words had shocked her, but she soon regained her composure and said indifferently, “Healing is second nature to a physician; besides, I also hope to heal your leg. I never said I didn’t want to see you.”
She just didn’t want to get involved in trouble, as she already had plenty of it.
That was why she had said those words that day, and although she had felt a slight regret afterward, what’s said couldn’t be taken back.
Pei Huaian’s expression subtly lifted, and Shao He pushed him into the room.
She rolled up his outer robe, beginning to treat his leg, Shao He focused on the set of silver needles.
With a “clatter,” a silver needle fell to the ground.
Pei Huaian looked up in surprise. The ceiling showed no signs of any holes and was intact; he then touched the ground, completely at a loss as to where the silver needle had come from.
Seeing Pei Huaian’s puzzled look, she cleared her throat to cover her embarrassment, “Sit properly, I’m starting to apply the needles now.”
Hearing this, Pei Huaian didn’t continue to probe but instead focused on letting her treat his legs.
Shao He placed the silver needle above his knee, her movements deft as she began to operate, concentrating intensively.
Inserting a silver needle is perhaps not difficult for the typical doctor, as it merely requires a light press to penetrate the skin at the acupoint, but Pei Huaian’s case was special, needing a deeper insertion, careful not to damage the tendons and bones.
Her hands were steady and skillful, each movement adopting the same posture, the same angle, as if she had practiced it millions of times, evidently very familiar.
As time gradually passed, a thin layer of sweat built up on the silver needles, drops sliding off, leaving several traces on the floor.
“Do you feel anything now?”
Pei Huaian shook his head; his legs still had no sensation, and he did not know how much longer it would be before he could stand again.
Not long after, Pei Huaian’s eyes widened in surprise, “My leg…”
“What’s wrong? Are you experiencing discomfort?” Shao He became tense, as she was using this set of silver needles for the first time, applying a heavier touch than before.
“It seems like some sensation is returning?” Pei Huaian’s legs had been numb for a long time, and this newfound sensation made him very excited, even somewhat disbelieving.
Hearing this, Shao He let out a sigh of relief, “This is normal. Your leg should be able to walk normally in about three months. You must take good care afterward, pay attention to your diet recently, avoid raw, cold, spicy, and greasy food, and keep your legs warm.”
“Mm,” Pei Huaian nodded lightly, his gaze resting on her face.
“I heard Chu Yu has been causing trouble at Jian Hall again, do you need help?” Although Pei Huaian had not shown his face, he was very concerned about Shao He’s affairs.
He had also heard that Old Madam Chu sent her gifts, and Chu Yu and Luo Jiner had been causing trouble.
