Chapter 419: Chapter 419: Getting Through the Dangerous Period
Mo Fan nodded slightly, indeed his strength needed to be seriously improved.
Yun Yue’s cell phone rang in her pocket, and she pulled it out to see it was a call from Ji Xian, nonchalantly answering, "Hello?"
As soon as she answered the call, Ji Xian’s anxious and caring voice could be heard.
"Are you okay?"
Yun Yue’s eyebrows knitted together, how did he know she had an accident?
"I’m fine." Her voice was very soft, and from the phone, one could hear his breathing was somewhat rapid, her eyes narrowed slightly, "Are you having an attack?"
Just as Ji Xian was about to say he was fine, knowing she was okay made him a bit excited. He quickly covered the mouthpiece with his hand, trying to disguise his coughing with a lower voice, coughing twice, "It’s nothing, just a bit of a cold. Where are you right now?"
Knowing she was fine, he finally felt as if a weight had been lifted from his heart.
"I’m at the hospital, but it’s not me, it’s Xiao Feng who got injured, still in critical condition. I’m staying here for the night." Yun Yue rushed to finish her words, fearing he would rush over to the hospital after hearing only half the story.
Ji Xian’s heart roller-coastered with anxiety, feeling that sooner or later she would scare him to death.
"You are fine, that’s good, I’ll hang up now." Ji Xian hung up the call and immediately started coughing violently, taking a while to come back to his senses.
Housekeeper Ji poured him a glass of water, "Master, is the young miss alright?"
"She’s fine now." Ji Xian took a sip of water to calm down, his expression inscrutable, "She didn’t mention what happened; she doesn’t want me to worry. Go and find out what exactly happened today."
There was such a commotion today, with an explosion at the Yunguang Conglomerate. He had a feeling it was related to her disappearance.
With Xiao Chen mobilizing so many forces today, the opposition must not be trivial. He was afraid...
"Yes, Master." Housekeeper Ji nodded slightly. With such a big incident today, it was impossible to hide it. All the major families were watching, so there was no need to worry about being discovered that the Ji Family was investigating the incident.
"Was it Old Man Bai who called?" Mo Fan wrapped his arms around his chest, only he would care so much about Yun Yue.
"Mm." Yun Yue lowered her head, her eyes indescribably dark. Ever since returning to the Ji Family, his health had been declining day by day, and even with her there, she couldn’t guarantee how much longer he could live, maybe he would pass away any day now.

That night, Yun Yue slept in the ward next to Xiao Feng. Xiao Chen prepared a basin of hot water and watched Yun Yue playing with her phone on the bed, his voice gentle, "Soak your feet, you must have caught a chill today."
Yun Yue didn’t move, and Xiao Chen bent down to pick her up. She was slightly startled and then her feet were already in the hot water. The temperature was a bit hot, as if he could sense when she would move, "Water temperature is just right, soak for a while to drive the chill away."
Her body was already cold, and having been caught in a heavy rain, it was definitely necessary to warm up.
Yun Yue uttered an "Oh," obediently sitting and continuing to play with her phone. Roughly ten minutes later, when the water cooled down, Xiao Chen took her feet out, dried them, and left with the basin.
Yun Yue’s gaze fell on her feet, which were reddened from the heat, like...
She scoffed teasingly and lay down on the bed, covering herself with the blanket and closing her eyes.
She fell asleep quickly, and in her dream, she entered a recurring loop, endlessly cycling through past scenes.
When Xiao Chen came in, he saw her lying on the bed and deliberately lightened his footsteps as he walked to the window. Seeing the tears seeping from the corners of her eyes, his heart clenched with pain.
Coldness veiled the depths of his eyes. What on earth had Qiu Jun done to her today?
He bent down, his fingertips gently adjusting the blanket over her, turned off the main light, and quietly left the room.
Xiao Chen stood by the corridor window, his slender and pale hand holding a cigarette, his face exuded an icy chill, his narrow eyes dark as ink, and his lips tightly pressed as he gazed into the night.
Feng Ye and Jiang Qi walked over, pushing each other back and forth, not daring to come forward, but eventually both stepped up together.
"Master Chen, I’m sorry about today’s incident, I shouldn’t have doubted you and Yun Yue." Jiang Qi said with his head lowered, somewhat afraid to meet his gaze.
Xiao Chen turned around, his deep and dark eyes landed on him, a layer of mist shrouding his gaze, black and intimidating, his voice devoid of warmth, "You should call her ’sister-in-law’."
Jiang Qi looked up in shock, then slowly lowered his eyes again, "Yes, I will never disrespect her again."
Although he had known for a while that Master Chen felt differently about Yun Yue, after today, his perception of Yun Yue changed.
If something happened to her or if she disappeared, Master Chen was truly the kind of person who could turn Beijing upside down in frenzy.
Yun Yue was definitely not as simple as she seemed on the surface.
That night.
As Yun Yue had said, Xiao Feng developed a high fever, soaring to 40 degrees, his entire body burning like a fireball.
Jiang Qi immediately woke Feng Ye and hurried out, "You stay here and watch him, I’m going to call Yun Yue... sister-in-law."
Feng Ye was initially groggy with sleep, but as he realized something was wrong, his drowsiness vanished in an instant, and he quickly pressed the call bell.
When Yun Yue arrived, the hospital director and numerous doctors had also rushed over, her eyes were bloodshot, her eyelids drooping, looking as though she hadn’t woken up completely.
It was four in the morning; they had hardly slept and didn’t dare to leave the hospital, all waiting in their own offices.
"Yun Yue, you must look at him, he’s burning up." Feng Ye hurriedly made room, the heat was frightening.
Yun Yue’s sleepiness faded a bit, her voice hoarse: "Pull his blankets away, get the ice packs, the more the better."
After she finished, Song Daisan’s students had already arrived, she instructed them to place the ice packs on him, swept a glance around the ward, her eyes darkening slightly.
"Everyone out, only Song Yu stays."
At those words, all the doctors wore strange expressions, looking towards Song Yu standing at the back.
He’d been on the night shift for a while and had heard a bit about today’s events, just never expected her to show up here.
Song Daisan’s face showed strangeness, he signaled to Song Yu with his eyes, then followed the crowd out.
"Elder Song, can Xiao Feng make it through tonight?" Feng Ye’s face was tense; Yun Yue had said that if he couldn’t make it through the night, there was no saving him.
"Don’t worry, with Miss Yun here, he will be alright." Song Daisan was still wondering how his grandson knew Yun Yue, they were about the same age, and if it weren’t for Xiao Chen making the first move, he would have liked her to be the Song Family’s granddaughter-in-law.
Song Yu closed the door, pushed up his glasses, "What do you need me to do?"
"Help me wipe his body with alcohol, be careful not to touch the wounds." Yun Yue opened her silver needle kit, ready to start the acupuncture.
"Okay." Song Yu rolled up his sleeves, applied the alcohol to his hands, and then repeatedly wiped Xiao Feng down.
Yun Yue pierced him with the silver needles at several points, they both kept repeating the process until two hours later, when daylight had fully broken, and the fever finally began to subside.
"Thirty-eight degrees, he’ll be fine, he should wake up by tonight," Yun Yue said, pinching the tenseness between her brows with her pale fingers, her hands in her pockets as she walked out with heavy eyelids.
As soon as the door opened, twenty pairs of eyes looked at her.
"He’s alright now, have someone watch over him, he needs quiet rest for the time being," her voice was somewhat hoarse, Feng Ye and Jiang Qi gave her a grateful look.
Xiao Chen walked over and took her hand, sharing his warmth, "Let’s go, go back and rest."
