Rich Parents Found Me After I Got a Tycoon System? Yeah, I'm Not Interested novel Chapter 462

Chapter 462: Chapter 461: From Free to No Upper Limit

Nurse: Call me if you need help with anything else.

"Thank you, Miss Yun."

To Yun Zijin, a hundred yuan was no different than a dime.

After the nurse left, Yun Zijin unfolded her silver needle pouch.

Seeing the dense array of silver needles inside, Lu Yunque felt his skin crawl. ’Thank god I’m not the one getting acupuncture,’ he thought, immensely relieved.

Lu Yunzhou felt much the same, but he maintained a placid expression, showing no signs of unease.

Yun Zijin selected a needle from the collection, seemingly at random, and with a swift motion, inserted it into one of Lu Yunzhou’s acupoints.

"Brother, be sure to tell me if you feel any discomfort."

Lu Yunzhou nodded. "Don’t worry. I can take it."

While she worked, Lu Yunque discreetly returned to the kitchen to check on the herbal medicine he was brewing.

Lu Yunzhou was unable to walk because the neurons in his legs were damaged. For him to stand again, Yun Zijin had to regenerate his nerves.

But before regenerating them, she first had to completely destroy the existing damaged neurons to make way for new ones. (Author’s note: This is completely fictional and has no medical basis. Please do not take it seriously.)

Both the destruction of the old neurons and the regeneration of new ones would be excruciatingly painful for Lu Yunzhou.

"If it’s too much to bear, you have to tell me."

Seeing the veins bulging on Lu Yunzhou’s forehead, Yun Zijin couldn’t help but feel a pang of sympathy. But this was a crucial ordeal he had to endure if he ever wanted to walk again.

"I... can... take it..."

As Lu Yunzhou forced out those few words, the veins on his forehead bulged even more prominently.

This session lasted for a full half hour, and Lu Yunzhou’s agony continued for just as long.

"Today was the first treatment, which is always the most painful. The next one won’t be as agonizing."

It will still hurt, of course, but the pain will pale in comparison to today’s ordeal.

By the time the treatment was over, Lu Yunzhou’s clothes were soaked with sweat. Yun Zijin suggested awkwardly, "Maybe you should... let Lu Yunque help you take a bath?"

He certainly couldn’t bathe on his own, so Lu Yunque was naturally roped into being the helper.

Huo Yue Lan arrived just as Lu Yunque came out from helping Lu Yunzhou with his bath.

Seeing Lu Yunque lifting Lu Yunzhou into bed, Huo Yue Lan hurried inside. "Why didn’t you call the caregiver to help?"

The Lu Family was not short on money; even at their own private sanatorium, they had hired a caregiver to help Lu Yunzhou with his daily needs. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

"It was more trouble to call the caregiver. I was already here, so it was no bother."

Besides, what hadn’t the two of them seen of each other? This was nothing new.

"I brought you all some dinner. Eat up while it’s still hot."

Knowing that both Yun Zijin and Lu Yunque were there, Huo Yue Lan had deliberately brought enough for three.

"Thank you, Mom," came one voice, while another said, "Thank you, Auntie."

Hearing that Huo Yue Lan had brought them dinner, their faces lit up with pleasant surprise.

"Go on, eat. I brought all your favorites."

Huo Yue Lan had already eaten at home before she came.

Lu Yunque took the thermal containers from Huo Yue Lan and raised the overbed table. He took out all the dishes and distributed bowls and chopsticks to everyone.

"You all eat first. I’m going to go for a walk outside."

It was always a little awkward to watch others eat, or to be watched while eating, so Huo Yue Lan tactfully stepped out of the room.
