Lord Yan, The Little Ancestor Has Fallen Off The Horse Again!-Chapter 299: Learning While Idle

Huo Baoming did as Xiao Feng had expected, but he wasn’t pricking a doll, he was pricking himself. His hand trembled slightly, his whole body tensed up, but he didn’t move.

He asked in a low voice, uncertain, "Captain, I haven’t offended you, have I?"

Captain?

Both servant and master’s eyes fell on the slender figure standing before them. Why call her captain?

Yun Yue arched her brows but didn’t answer his question. She spoke indifferently, "Don’t want your hand anymore?"

Huo Baoming was silent for a moment, then said fearfully, "I want it... didn’t you say you were taking me to see a doctor? Put the needle away first."

Her way of handling the needle was strikingly similar to Nanny Rong.

This needle, once pricked, would make him cry for his parents.

"I am the doctor. Stretch out your hand!"

The firm tone made Huo Baoming instinctively shiver as he met her cool eyes. He slowly extended his right hand, placing it on the coffee table, and lowered his eyes, hoping that he could still take care of himself after the pricking was done.

He almost asked if she had any medical certification; luckily, he held back because otherwise, all the needles might have ended up in him.

Yun Yue quickly pricked him with the silver needles several times.

Initially, Huo Baoming’s whole body trembled, but after the pricking, he could distinctly feel less pain in his hand.

His injury this time was to bones and muscles. The doctor had said he needed to rest, avoid overexertion, and even then, there would be lingering effects, meaning high-intensity activities would be impossible for him in the future.

So he hadn’t held out much hope, but he didn’t want to disappoint her either. After all, the worst it could be was unchanged, so he might as well let her try her hand at dead-horse medicine.

Unexpectedly, not long after the pricking, the weakness in his hand started to fade away, and the pain diminished.

He looked up, somewhat shocked.

The captain knew medical techniques?

When had she learned medicine?

This was acupuncture, even harder to learn than Western medicine.

Xiao Feng had been watching Huo Baoming’s hand and expression closely and saw that those few needles she pricked seemed quite professional.

Seeing Huo Baoming looking at her in shocked surprise, was this going well or not?

This was acupuncture; if not done properly, his hand could be ruined.

"How do you feel?" he asked nervously, thinking that if it was ruined, rushing to the hospital might still save it.

Yun Yue seemed to see through his thoughts. Rows of silver needles shone in his eyes. Her delicate brows quirked, "Want to try it?"

Xiao Feng touched the back of his head, chuckling awkwardly, "Better not."

Ten minutes later, Yun Yue pulled the silver needles out of Huo Baoming’s hand, gathered them into her backpack, and dropped her head, "Move your hand and try."

Huo Baoming’s heart throbbed as he rotated his wrist.

He knew best whether it was healed or not. The pain and weakness had completely vanished, just like before the injury.

"It’s better, Captain, really better." He stood up excitedly, looking at his own wrist, amazed.

Xiao Chen’s deep gaze fell on his right hand, his eyebrows slightly raised, then turned to look at the girl in front of him, his eyes piercing.

She picked up her backpack, the brim of her hat shadowing her exquisitely beautiful brows and eyes, her voice indifferent, "I’ve sent you the thing on your phone. It’s up to you how you handle it, but if you or another YYD team member gets into an accident next time, I won’t show any mercy."

Huo Baoming’s smile tightened, "I understand."

"Let’s go."

She pocketed her hands and walked out lazily, her back both cool and imposing.

After they had left, a member of the second team dared to come forward.

"Ming Shen, who was that just now?" Xiao Pang, the earlier speaker, asked.

Just now, if they hadn’t heard wrong, Ming Shen seemed to have called her captain.

Huo Baoming furrowed his brows and fell into deep thought, only snapping out of it when he heard their voices. "It’s exactly what you’re thinking."

"She, she is... Y!" Xiao Pang jumped up excitedly.

Everyone’s eyes widened; they could never have dreamed of being so close to Y.

Had they known she was Y, they would have asked for her autograph earlier; it was uncertain if they would ever meet Y again in the future.

Huo Baoming helplessly watched this group of teens and walked into the training room.

**

The car was quieter than on the way over, and Xiao Feng sneakily glanced at the person in the rearview mirror several times.

Why did the members of YYD call her captain?

Why did she know acupuncture?

The girl’s slender legs were bent as she sat, her delicate face exuding a lazy rogue charm, her fingers skillfully swiping across the screen. The only sound in the entire car was the chaotic killing noises from her phone.

Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows and glanced at the attractive battle records on the gaming interface. He couldn’t help but ask, "Did you used to play games?"

Yun Yue drooped her eyelids, her posture casual, and responded carelessly, "Oh, I played for a while when I was bored, but then I found it too dull and stopped."

Played for a while when bored and made it to the YYD E-sports Club?

E-sports careers are quite popular now, many professional players earn more than many others.

"And the acupuncture? Did you learn that while you were bored, too?" He changed his pose, sat closer to her, and eyed her sideways with a raised eyebrow.

Acupuncture was not as easy to learn as other things; her movements were swift and decisive, clearly very skilled.

Even the few veteran traditional doctors in Beijing weren’t as adept as she was.

Yun Yue felt the space closing in, turned her head, and looked at him seriously, "Indeed, I learned it when I was bored."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Feng almost slammed on the accelerator; Miss Yun really dared to say anything.

If those old doctors in Beijing heard her, they’d probably faint from shock.

Xiao Chen’s eyes shone with amusement, "I wonder what else you learned in your spare time?"

Yun Yue paused, her delicate eyebrows lifting defiantly, "Plenty."

Back at Shengting, it was only five in the afternoon, and Housekeeper Xiao had already bought groceries, just waiting for Xiao Feng to cook.

They formed a team for a five-player match.

Jiang Qiong saw they were enjoying themselves and didn’t disturb them; they played until nine at night before returning to the Xiao Family.

Night.

She took a towel and casually wiped her damp hair, saw some chocolates beside her, ate one, turned on her computer, and leaned back in the chair.

She logged onto the Black Alliance website and browsed the mission interface.

She could find people investigating her in every level of missions.

Thinking of what Wu Yi had said today, she sent a message to Xiao Bai.

Xiao Bai replied quickly, [Boss, are you sure you want to investigate him?]

[Yes, just find out why he’s looking for the Ghost Doctor.] She wasn’t interested in knowing about the rest.

Xiao Bai thought she wanted to dig into all of Xiao Chen’s matters but after hearing what she said, he replied directly, "No need to look into that, everyone in Beijing knows he’s looking for you to treat his father."

Xiao Chen’s father had been in a vegetative state for years and still hadn’t awakened; undoubtedly, he was seeking the Ghost Doctor for this reason.

But if he knew that the boss was the Ghost Doctor, there would be no need for such an elaborate effort.

However, the boss’s identity as the Ghost Doctor could not be easily exposed, as it would lead to turmoil across the entire international community. freēnovelkiss.com

His father?

Yun Yue tapped her fingers lightly on the desk, thought for a few seconds, and then hung up the phone.
