"Mr. Song, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of the two of them." Wei Fangfang said to Song Xiaodong.

"Mm, my original plan was to let my apprentice perform acupuncture on Meiyu, to let my apprentice practice a bit. But since you all are so anxious, I'll think of a way to try to cure Meiyu by tonight." Song Xiaodong said.

"Cure by tonight?" Wei Fangfang asked, somewhat incredulously.

"Of course. She'll take the medicine tonight, and by tomorrow morning, she'll be cured." Song Xiaodong replied.

"Mr. Song, please treat Meiyu quickly, just cure her as soon as possible. Seeing Meiyu like this, it really pains me as a mother." Wei Fangfang pleaded to Song Xiaodong.

"Alright, let's eat first. Meiyu, Uncle will treat you after dinner, alright?" Song Xiaodong asked Chen Meiyu.

"Okay." Chen Meiyu, who was gobbling her food, nodded.

"Xiaodong, since you can cure Meiyu in one day, why did you delay for so many days?" Song Xiaoru couldn't help but ask.

"Sis, to cure Meiyu's illness in one day, she has to take my elixir. I really don't have much stock left. I had other plans for it, but after going to the film city these days, most of my elixirs were used on Shen Jiayan, so not much is left. So, I figured I might as well just use it now, and I'll go to Longpan Mountain again to refine a batch when I get some time." Song Xiaodong explained.

"Xiaodong, I've noticed that since you returned from Longpan Mountain, your alchemy skills have noticeably improved!" Sun Yiyi said to Song Xiaodong.

"Of course, I met a true hermit master at Longpan Mountain, got guidance from an Immortal, my cultivation progressed rapidly, and my alchemy skills have become more and more refined." Song Xiaodong said mysteriously.

"Oh, come on! I think you were deliberate when treating Deputy Director Qiao. Why does it take so long to treat Deputy Director Qiao, but you can cure Meiyu and Shen Jiayan in just one day?" Chu Xianling said sourly from the side.

"When I treated Deputy Director Qiao, that was before I went to Longpan Mountain. A soldier must be looked at with new eyes after three days apart. My trip to Longpan Mountain was quite fruitful, my medical skills made rapid advances, and to treat Meiyu and Shen Jiayan, I don't use ordinary herbs but rather my elixir, so I can promise a one-day cure." Song Xiaodong said.

"Then cure Meiyu quickly!"

The group continued chatting while Kong Siman was quietly eating, saying nothing. As she was about to finish, she suddenly said to Song Xiaodong, "Family Head, my injury is almost healed, and I plan to move out tomorrow."

"Xiaoman, why are you suddenly moving out when everything is going well here?" Song Xiaoru asked Kong Siman.

"Sis, I've rented a place outside. Besides, as I've mentioned before, moving into the main residence would feel like being at work 24/7." Kong Siman replied to Song Xiaoru.

"Alright then, do remember to visit often." Song Xiaoru said somewhat disappointedly.

"I will, sis." The weight of Kong Siman's "sis" was especially heavy.

Who wouldn't want a kind, gentle, and virtuous sister like Song Xiaoru?

After dinner, Lu Yaobing intended to leave.

"Bingbing, why don't you stay? It's so late already, and now that exams are over, how about you stay and play games with your sister?" Miao Xuanxuan asked Lu Yaobing.

"Don't always drag my apprentice into playing games!" Song Xiaodong said to Miao Xuanxuan.

"So what if we play games after exams?" Miao Xuanxuan retorted defiantly.

"After exams, you should identify and address your weaknesses, not slack off." Song Xiaodong said.

"Don't listen to your master. There's no harm in playing when you should. Balance work and play." Miao Xuanxuan said to Lu Yaobing.

"Sis, I need to go back to the dormitory. There's just one person left in my dorm, and I need to keep her company." Lu Yaobing said to Miao Xuanxuan.

"You'd rather accompany your roommate than your sister? Has all my care gone to waste?" Miao Xuanxuan said.

"Alright then!"

"Great, come to my room!" Miao Xuanxuan gleefully said to Lu Yaobing.

"Come back!" Song Xiaodong waved to Lu Yaobing.

"What do you want now?" Miao Xuanxuan asked Song Xiaodong.

"Since you're not leaving tonight, it's a good chance to observe how you interact with patients, come with me."

"You're doing this on purpose!" Miao Xuanxuan stomped her foot.

Song Xiaodong immediately softened his tone and said to Miao Xuanxuan, "Just for a little bit, just for a little bit. After treating Meiyu, he'll come back to play games with you, alright?"

"Then go quickly!"

Song Xiaodong and Lu Yaobing went to find Chen Meiyu.

"You give Meiyu acupuncture, and after the meridians are cleared, give her the medicine." Song Xiaodong said to Lu Yaobing.

"Okay."

After administering acupuncture and medication to Chen Meiyu, Song Xiaodong allowed her to sleep and then called Wei Fangfang out alone.

"Sis, to be honest, Meiyu's condition isn't an illness but caused by someone using a Jiangtou on her. Have you heard of Jiangtou?" Song Xiaodong asked Wei Fangfang.

"I've heard of it. It's an evil technique used to curse people." Wei Fangfang replied.

"Yes, but this kind that afflicted Meiyu is very special. It's not a curse to harm, but to make someone ugly." Song Xiaodong explained.

"Are you saying someone deliberately made Meiyu ugly?" Wei Fangfang asked Song Xiaodong.

Song Xiaodong nodded.

Wei Fangfang also nodded thoughtfully.

"No matter what, this must be the act of an enemy. If there's nothing left for you back home, it'd be best to not return, to avoid enemies seeking you out again. With you and Meiyu under the Su Family's protection, no one would dare harm you two." Song Xiaodong advised.
