"The medical books were right, pain stimulates the nerves, restoring heart function. Sure enough, one jab and Mom got better."
This is the advantage of having studied medicine; you can seriously talk nonsense, and no one will question you.
Li Yan's mom was left speechless, just having to accept her misfortune.
"Mom, how are you feeling? How about I let some more blood for you, it might relieve you quite a bit."
Li Yan's mom gritted her teeth, knowing full well it wasn't about letting blood but rather taking the chance for revenge, "I'm fine, no need for you to worry."
Gu Tong was a bit skeptical, "Are you really okay? You better not force yourself."
"I said I'm fine, and that's that. My health is great." Still wanting a chance to jab her, no chance.
"Oh, then I'm relieved…" Gu Tong murmured with a smile, "Since Mom is fine, I'll head back first. Li Yan has been waiting for some news, so I should let him know everything's alright."
