Chapter 424 -376: Birth Mother Indifferent Like a Chrysanthemum? The Young Miss Sabotages Everything with a Backhand 16

The girl’s appearance was stunningly beautiful, the kind that took your breath away at first glance, from her facial features to her skin, all were top-notch.

Her eyes were picturesque, large, and bright; her hair pulled back, making her look like a student still attending school. Perhaps due to malnutrition, or some other reasons, she was very thin, her wrists on the table so slender that they looked as if they could break with just a light twist, and her shoulders were frail, her waist and legs thin.

Xie Yanshang did not continue to listen to Su Qin’s lengthy compliments but turned to Su Zhiruan and said indifferently, “Stretch out your hand. Let me have a look.”

Then Su Zhiruan stretched out her wrist, resting it on a cushion in front of her.

Her wrist was extremely delicate, her skin very pale, with slender, bluish veins apparent, as if a slight poke would puncture them. Xie Yanshang placed three fingers on her wrist to take her pulse.

The pressure of his fingers was sometimes light and sometimes firm, but clearly, after taking her pulse, his brows deeply furrowed.

The few short minutes felt like hours to Su Qin, who no longer thought about how to ingratiate himself with Xie Yanshang. He looked anxiously at Xie Yanshang, then worriedly at his daughter Su Zhiruan, hoping there was nothing seriously wrong with her.

“How can someone so young have ruined her health like this? Your pulse is very bad.”

Xie Yanshang frowned slightly, then let go and told her, “Switch hands.”

So, Su Zhiruan placed her right hand up.

Su Zhiruan was somewhat aware of her own physical state.

When she first came to this world, she could clearly feel that the original owner’s body was in poor condition, getting out of breath after just walking a few steps. Once in the classroom, to make an example of someone, she slapped someone else, and afterward, her palm hurt fiercely, even her breathing became heavier.

On normal days, when she walked too much or did more activities, she would feel uncomfortable all over. This body was in a worse state than any other she had experienced in Small World, mostly plagued by illnesses.

This was also evident from the original owner’s memories. Ning Fu had always treated her poorly, claiming it was to make her experience the life of the poor and not to turn into a proud young lady, thus often tormenting her in a passive-aggressive way, even to the point of not letting her have enough to eat. Of course, in front of others, she still appeared as a kindly mother, but in reality, the original owner didn’t even live as well as average impoverished children, who at least received some love and happiness.

After finishing taking her pulse, Xie Yanshang’s brows were completely furrowed; he withdrew his hand.

Only then did Su Zhiruan notice that his left hand wore a string of Buddha Beads; he pinched the bridge of his nose with his left hand, “Your body is severely depleted, you have deficiencies in both qi and blood, and there is varying degrees of damage to the organs. Chronic malnutrition combined with physical frailty and insufficient blood flow, plus frequent insomnia, if you want to recover, you will need proper care.”

“Doctor Xie, please help my daughter!”

At this moment, Su Qin no longer cared that the man before him was the eldest son of the Xie Family; he hastily clasped his hands together, urgently stepping forward to plead, his tears almost falling, “I’ve been too busy with work to pay attention to my daughter. I didn’t expect it to have reached this state when I brought her to the hospital. Please help us, she’s my only precious daughter!”

Xie Yanshang, however, turned his gaze to Su Zhiruan.

The girl seemed to understand her physical condition. At that moment, she was extremely calm, not at all panicking, anxious, or afraid. This was different from the patients he usually met.

Typically, patients who learn of even a minor issue with their health immediately become anxious to find a remedy, striving to restore their health, even if it means spending a lot of money asking him for a solution.

But the girl before him seemed indifferent. Her gaze did not resemble that of an ordinary student; instead, it was like someone who had been immersed in society for years, even having seen through the transient nature of life, which piqued his curiosity about her. Perhaps subconsciously, Xie Yanshang looked at Su Zhiruan and blurted out, “Aren’t you afraid?”

“It’s okay.” Su Zhiruan replied to him.

She rotated her wrist, pulled her hand back, and rested it on her thigh, quietly looking at Xie Yanshang, “After all, it has come to this point, what use is there in my being anxious? It’s better to stay calm.”
