He Yu’s expression was unfathomable as he looked at the box on the table. After a long silence, he said in a low voice, “Since Miss Huo is so confident in yourself, I’ll trust you this once. Let me try out Miss Huo’s new invention.”

Huo Tian heaved a sigh of relief. As long as He Yu could accept this apology gift, their grudges would be cleared.

He Yu was traumatized by Huo Tian and wouldn’t let her touch his head again no matter what. Hence, they called the attending doctor over. Under Huo Tian’s guidance, the attending doctor removed the gauze on He Yu’s head and stuck black magnetic disks on his acupoints.

Huo Tian handed a thumb-sized remote control to He Yu. “There’s a switch on this. You can control it yourself.”

The small magnetic disks were light, but they had a mysterious attaching force. Without using any glue, they stuck to He Yu’s skin. He Yu pressed the button on the remote control and frowned when he felt the sudden sensation on his head.

It wasn’t an uncomfortable feeling. It was as if someone was massaging his acupoints with their fingertips. Some unknown material’s thin threads reached out and connected to the magnetic disks on other acupoints. After a numbing sensation, there were no other sensations on his head.

He Yu took the mirror and examined the marks on his head. For the convenience to have surgery performed on him, he had been shaved bald. This allowed him to see the changes on his head clearly. The surface area of the small magnetic disks on his acupuncture points had shrunk a little, and the threads that were thin like hair connected them. They were pressed tightly against his scalp like strange tattoos, giving him the image of a cyberpunk.

Huo Tian asked, “How do you feel now? Are you still as easily angered as before?”

He Yu sensed carefully and realized that he was very calm. He couldn’t believe that these small magnetic disks had such amazing effects, so he didn’t reply for a long time.

Si Huan watched from the side and seemed to be able to guess what He Yu was thinking. He suddenly said, “Huo You denied the news of her being in a relationship with you in school. It seems like she doesn’t want to be with you anymore. He Yu, why are you such a failure? You can’t even keep a woman by your side?”

He Yu glared at Si Huan. “Stop talking about that detestable woman! None of the Huo Family’s women are good!”

Huo Tian rebutted unhappily, “What’s with the stereotype? You just have to target Huo You. Why do you have to bring me into this?”

He Yu let out a cold snort. “I’m talking about both of you.”

Huo Tian was infuriated by this ungrateful person. If it wasn’t for the fact that this person’s head was still injured, Huo Tian would like to give him two more punches!

Si Huan patted Huo Tian’s back reassuringly and said to He Yu, “It seems like you’ve gotten a lot of control over your emotions. Didn’t you realize that even if I mentioned Huo You, you wouldn’t be as angry as you were before?”

Only then did He Yu come back to his senses and realized that this was indeed the case. Although he was still furious at the mention of Huo You’s name, he didn’t lose his cool like before.

He truly felt the wonders of this product.

He Yu started to look at Huo Tian in a new light, and he couldn’t help but feel a little jealous of Si Huan. When his and Huo Tian’s rumors spread throughout high society, many people mocked Si Huan and said that he was a sentimental person. They even said that he had a deep-rooted love for the fake daughter who was chased out of the Huo Family.

Only now did He Yu realize that Si Huan was the same as his grandfather and father—he was a shrewd businessman. He had tied Huo Tian to him with his feelings and had her constantly help him generate profits. This was a business that benefited him without any cost.

With this in mind, He Yu said to Si Huan pointedly, “I thought you had gone crazy. You actually fell for a little girl who has neither a figure nor a family background. Turns out that you’ve dug up a treasure basin.. Si Huan, since you’re here to apologize, why don’t you give me your treasure basin?”
