360: Chapter 360 The Young Lady Experiencing Life!

Hearing this, the expressions of the surrounding passengers became peculiar.

Some even couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Indeed, even if the girl really was sick, what could you, a fellow passenger, do about it?

Could you actually treat someone right then and there?

Wasn't that just nonsense?

The old lady snorted even louder, "Young people these days will make up any kind of ghost story just to pick up girls!"

Many around her nodded in agreement, their faces filled with indignation.

However...

Ye Chen wasn't angry upon hearing this. Instead, he said something startling: "Something like that."

Yu Xin was stunned.

The surrounding passengers were also stunned.

Something like that?

He actually said 'something like that'?

What did that mean?

Did he really intend to...

Yu Xin's face flushed crimson once again.

This time it wasn't out of anger, but shame.

This pervert!

This lecher!

He actually really wanted to...

"You!!!"

She pointed at Ye Chen, her finger trembling.

Ye Chen interrupted her and asked calmly, "Do you usually get angry easily?"

Yu Xin blinked.

She did get angry easily, but what did this guy mean?

However...

Without waiting for her to speak, Ye Chen continued, "And every time after you get angry, is it normal for the left side of your chest to ache for exactly five minutes?"

Yu Xin: "???"

Wait...

How did this guy know?

Not only did he know that her chest would hurt when she got angry, but he even pinpointed the exact number of minutes!

Ignoring her astonishment, Ye Chen added one word at a time.

"And when you go to the hospital for a check-up, they can't find anything wrong."

"At most, they tell you that you have some small nodules, to get some rest, and to stop getting angry."

Yu Xin: "???"

She was completely dumbfounded.

These words were exactly what she had heard when she went to see the doctor!

But this person was clearly just a passenger!

Ignoring her shocked expression, the corners of Ye Chen's mouth curled up.

"By the way, if you touch the upper right part of your chest, are there three fingernail-sized lumps?"

"According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, that's called 'Stagnation'."

Yu Xin: "???"

She instinctively raised her hand to touch it, but then froze in mid-air.

Because Ye Chen was right.

He was right about everything.

Not just the first two points, but even the last very private matter was spot on.

It was true.

She had felt those three lumps several times while showering...

She had thought it was normal and hadn't taken it to heart.

But now, this total stranger had actually said it all out loud?

Yu Xin stood there dazed, her mind in a complete mess.

The surrounding passengers' gazes fell on her face in unison.

Seeing her like this, everyone had an idea of what was going on.

Could it be that the young man wasn't just talking nonsense?

Ye Chen raised an eyebrow and looked at her with a half-smile.

"Well?"

"Did I guess right?"

Yu Xin opened her mouth, but she couldn't say a single word.

After several seconds, she finally spoke with difficulty.

"You... how did you know?"

"Who on earth are you?"

Ye Chen leaned back against his seat and smiled slightly. "Who I am isn't important. What's important is... if you let that thing in your chest drag on, it really will become a tumor. By then, it won't be as simple as a few minutes of pain when you're angry."

Yu Xin's face instantly turned pale.

She instinctively clutched her chest, her voice trembling.

"Then... then what should I do?"

Looking at her panicked state, Ye Chen couldn't help but chuckle.

"Don't be nervous."

"Didn't I just say it?"

"I can treat it."

Yu Xin froze for a moment. The expression on her face changed from panic to pleasant surprise, and then from surprise to hesitation.

"You... you can really treat it?"

"But that method you mentioned earlier..."

She paused, her face turning red again.

"You don't actually have to... touch me, do you?"

Hearing this, Ye Chen shook his head, caught between laughter and tears. "What are you thinking? Am I that kind of person?"

Yu Xin looked at him and said nothing.

But her eyes clearly wrote out the words...

You are!

How could you not be?

Given what Ye Chen had just said, it was impossible to associate him with being a man of integrity!

If Ye Chen hadn't correctly identified all her symptoms from a distance, she would never have wavered...

Ye Chen sighed helplessly.

"Fine, fine, fine, I'm not teasing you anymore."

"Stretch out your hand."

Yu Xin hesitated for a moment, but she still extended her right hand.

Because...

She wanted to live. She had a wonderful youth and life ahead of her, and she didn't want to lose everything because of a tumor.

If it was within her range of acceptance...

She didn't have the courage to refuse.

Of course.

If Ye Chen dared to lie to her, she guaranteed he wouldn't walk out of Magic City...

Ye Chen ignored her complicated gaze and instead extended two fingers, placing them on her wrist.

That posture looked exactly like a TCM doctor taking a pulse.

As the surrounding passengers watched this scene, their expressions became even more peculiar.

Wait...

This young man really knows how to treat patients?

A moment later.

Ye Chen withdrew his hand and pulled a small cloth bag from his chest pocket. Opening it, there was a row of Silver Needles inside.

"Don't move."

Hearing this, Yu Xin suddenly became nervous. "You... you even know acupuncture?"

Ye Chen didn't speak. He simply picked up a Silver Needle and gently inserted it into the acupoint on the web of her right hand.

Yu Xin felt a wave of numbness, but no pain.

Immediately after.

The second needle.

The third needle.

The fourth needle.

Ye Chen's movements were fluid and natural, so fast they were a blur.

In just a dozen seconds, seven or eight Silver Needles were inserted into Yu Xin's right hand.

Ye Chen held the last needle and gave it a gentle twist.

Yu Xin suddenly felt a warmth in her chest.

That warm current flowed slowly from her chest, as if something were being dissolved.

Ye Chen withdrew his hand and spoke calmly.

"Done."

"Feel it for yourself. Are those three lumps still there?"

Yu Xin froze, then instinctively reached out to her chest to check.

Then.

Her eyes instantly widened.

Gone?

Those three lumps were actually... gone???

She felt around again in disbelief, confirming it several times before finally believing that the three lumps had truly vanished.

Yu Xin snapped her head up. Her gaze toward Ye Chen was filled with shock and wild joy: "They're... they're really gone!"

Ye Chen smiled and began to retrieve the needles.

"As long as they're gone."

"In the future, try to get angry less and smile more. You'll be fine."

Yu Xin nodded vigorously, her eyes turning red.

She suddenly realized that she had almost hit her savior just now...

With a red face, she lowered her head and apologized in a small voice: "I'm... I'm sorry. I misunderstood you just now..."

Ye Chen waved his hand.

"It's fine."

"I'd have misunderstood too if I were you."

Yu Xin was amused by his words, and the blush on her face deepened.

She looked up and stared at Ye Chen earnestly.

"Thank you."

"My name is Yu Xin. Can... can you tell me your name?"

Ye Chen looked at her and smiled slightly. "Ye Chen."

Yu Xin silently memorized the name in her heart.

She wanted to say something more, but the plane suddenly jolted.

The captain's voice came over the intercom.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are about to land. Please fasten your seatbelts and stow your tray tables..."

Yu Xin finally snapped back to her senses and realized she was still standing in the aisle.

She hurriedly bowed to Ye Chen, then turned and walked quickly back to the service area.

The surrounding passengers' eyes followed her until her figure disappeared behind the curtain.

Then.

Everyone's gaze fell on Ye Chen simultaneously.

Those looks contained shock, curiosity, and suspicion.

Wait...

Does this young man really know medicine, or were the two of them just acting?

However...

Ye Chen didn't pay any attention to the gazes around him. Instead, he leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes to rest, as if nothing had happened.

A short while later.

The plane landed at Magic City International Airport.

Yu Xin walked quickly into the flight attendants' lounge.

She closed the door.

She pulled out her phone and dialed a number.

After two rings, a steady middle-aged male voice came from the other end.

"Xiner, Dad has already sent someone to pick you up outside. Today is the last day. Your experience of life is over, come back home."

Yu Xin held the phone, but she didn't act spoiled or complain like usual. Instead, she took a deep breath and said seriously.

"Dad, I want you to investigate someone for me first."

On the other end of the line, Yu Baiyun was stunned.

Investigate someone?

His daughter had been spoiled since she was a child and was typically quite carefree. When had she ever taken an interest in someone else?

He couldn't help but tease, "Oh? Who is it? Who could make my precious daughter personally ask for an investigation?"

Yu Xin bit her lip and said softly.

"The person is named Ye Chen. He was a passenger on this last flight."

As soon as she said this.

The person on the other end of the phone was dumbfounded.

"Ye Chen? A man?"

Yu Xin nodded: "Yes."

Yu Baiyun immediately burst out laughing.

"What?"

"Could it be that our Xiner has fallen for that man?"

His daughter had been a tomboy since she was little. Despite being the young mistress of one of the three major families in Magic City, she didn't act like a refined lady at all.

She was irritable, hot-tempered, and would throw hands at the slightest provocation.

He really had no other choice, so based on the guidance of a high monk he knew, he had arranged for Yu Xin to go to the airline his family held shares in to experience life and temper her character.

And the result?

After half a month, her temper hadn't been tempered much, but she'd found a sweetheart instead?

Yu Xin's face turned beet red.

"Dad! What nonsense are you talking about!"

"What do you mean 'fallen for him' or not!"

"It's not what you think!"

Yu Baiyun laughed heartily: "Alright, alright, alright, it's not. Then tell Dad, why do you want to investigate him?"
