Madam Su’s voice trembled with hope. “Can he really be saved?”
“I’m standing right here, aren’t I?” Ye Nanshen chimed in, his tone firm.
He had agreed to let Rong Qi treat Ye Rong, remembering the kindness Madam Su and Ye Rong had shown him during his toughest times. Though reserved, Ye Nanshen valued gratitude.
Madam Su, overwhelmed with emotion, barely contained her tears. She had often dreamt of her son’s recovery, only to wake to worsening realities. Now, facing a glimmer of hope, she struggled to believe it wasn’t another dream.
She had even sought spiritual guidance at Cloudsurf Temple, where Master Zenith predicted a life-changing encounter for Ye Rong. She never imagined the prophecy might come true.
Madam Su quickly sniffled, forcing herself to stabilize her emotions, looking at Rong Qi with teary eyes.
“I trust you both,” Madam Su said, looking at Rong Qi through tear-filled eyes. “Please, do whatever you can. I’ll support you.”
Rong Qi, touched by her trust, felt compelled to explain the situation. “Ye Rong’s affliction is Nightshade Kiss, a poison that causes hallucinations and intense heat, like a fire burning within. It starts with blisters on the feet and moves upward. If it reaches the face, it’s incurable. Has it reached his chest?”
Ye Nanshen lifted Ye Rong’s shirt, revealing a body riddled with blisters, nearly at his collarbone.
Rong Qi was right. The blisters had almost reached Ye Rong’s collarbone, explaining why he always kept himself so tightly wrapped. Without a doubt, his arms and legs were probably the same.
“To detoxify him fully, he’ll need a month of medication and acupuncture. He should stay indoors, away from visitors, except for Grandpa.”
Madam Su nodded in agreement, understanding the need for privacy.
Rong Qi added, “I’ll need a few days to prepare the herbs. Until then, he should rest and not exert himself.”
Ye Rong, listening intently, responded, “Understood. And Rong Qi, feel free to call me Rong.”
“Then you can call me Qiqi,” Rong Qi said to Madam Su with a smile.
After Rong Qi had administered needle treatment to Ye Rong, Madam Su gratefully saw them out.
“Do you feel any discomfort?” Madam Su asked gently.
Ye Rong shook his head, already feeling lighter after the treatment.
Madam Su, seeing her son at ease for the first time in ages, carefully tucked him in and left the room, her heart slightly lighter.
Rong Qi and Ye Nanshen spent the night at the Ye residence, and then returned home the next day. Rong Qi set off to gather the necessary herbs, while Ye Nanshen attended to his business.
However, upon returning to Clearcreek Mansion, Rong Qi received a call from Shangguan Ze, bearing exciting news. She could officially take over Rong Holdings..
