Why was there no weak pulse to indicate a serious illness?

Looking at the old man’s face, she didn’t think he looked like he was sick. What went wrong?

The old man saw Xu Xiyan’s look of suspicion and coughed awkwardly. “You knew it, lass. I hope you will not tell anyone, especially Yunshen.”

Xu Xiyan snickered, “So, you were just pretending to be sick?”

It was best to have no sickness, and to be healthy was a blessing. Xu Xiyan felt relieved for Huo Yunshen.

Since Xu Xiyan had managed to gain some trust from the elderly man, she wasted no time and went straight to the point, “Grandpa Huo, the truth is I’m not here to treat you today, but to beg you to help Yunshen.”

Huo Xun’s eyes became wide and eagle-like. Surprised, he asked, “What do you mean?”

When Xu Xiyan turned around and saw Huo Yunshen, she put a finger up to her lips.

Huo Yunshen saw that his grandfather was asleep and said nothing. He waited for Xu Xiyan to pack up her medicine bag. As soon she got out of the Moxiang residence, he immediately asked her, “Jing Xi, is the exam done? How is he?”

“Your grandfather just went to sleep. I’ll tell you after we go back,” Xu Xiyan said, deliberately keeping it a mystery.

After hearing her words, Huo Yunshen’s mood suddenly felt heavy. If his grandfather had no problems, Xu Xiyan would definitely tell him. But now he was afraid that...

Outside the Moxiang residence, Chen Yunlu was feeling very anxious. That little fox and her son were in the old man’s room together.

What if Huo Yunshen had asked the old man’s consent to marry Jing Xi? The old man had always spoiled him. What if he agreed?

Oh dear, how worrying!

Chen Yunlu was worried out of her wits. At this moment, Huo Jingtang came back. He saw Chen Yunlu standing at the gate of the garden and not going inside. Concerned, he asked, “Big Auntie, why are you here? Are you not going in?”

Chen Yunlu turned as she heard Huo Jingtang’s voice and smiled awkwardly at him. “Oh, it’s you, Jingtang. I’m just out here for some fresh air.”

“How is Grandpa today?” Huo Jingtang asked her.
