Chapter 430 - 430: You Reap What You Sow (2)
“Okay.”
Xie Heng kissed Zhao Chuchu on her cheek and then lay down on the bed.
Zhao Chuchu lay down beside Xie Heng. She waited for Xie Heng to reach his arm out and hug her before closing her eyes, feeling quite satisfied.
The next day…
Xie Heng woke up early.
The moment he moved, Zhao Chuchu opened her eyes.
“You should sleep for a while more,” Xie Heng said. “I’m going to check if they’ve made breakfast yet.”
“It’s okay. I’ve slept enough.”
Zhao Chuchu didn’t sleep in. She woke up with Xie Heng.
Xie Heng found a set of light clothes that were easy to move in for Zhao Chuchu. It was a set of men’s clothes.
“Although they all know you’re a lady, wearing women’s clothes is still a little inconvenient,” Xie Heng explained.
Zhao Chuchu laughed and said, “It’s all the same for me.”
She preferred the clothes of the modern era when going out.
Unfortunately, she looked really out of place if she wore them in the village. Those clothes were often considered weird or even immodest.
Zhao Chuchu and Xie Heng arrived at Qingyang Academy early in the morning. Yu Jianglin and his friends had drunk quite a bit the previous night, so they hadn’t woken up yet.
Xie Heng took Zhao Chuchu to meet the principal first.
The principal of Qingyang Academy was very young, only slightly over the age of 30.
But he was a very knowledgeable, wise man and a famous scholar in Guangqing Province.
After greeting him, Zhao Chuchu immediately got to the point and asked “Principal, do you often feel acute pain in your neck followed by a really bad headache and sometimes vomiting?
The principal was rather astonished that Zhao Chuchu knew about that. He remembered that he had consulted many doctors before, so it was probably not a secret anymore. It wasn’t too strange for Zhao Chuchu to know about it.
“Yes, that is right.”
Zhao Chuchu told the principal to give her his hand so she could feel his pulse.
She then told him about some of his other symptoms.
These were all small issues that the principal had never told other doctors about before, yet Zhao Chuchu pinpointed every single one of them accurately.
“I’m going to perform acupuncture on you first, then I’ll give you some medication that you need to take for about half a month. Please try to rest more and don’t sleep too late. This should alleviate your symptoms greatly,” Zhao Chuchu said as she opened up her medicine box and took out her set of needles. “I’ll come back for a return consultation in 15 days.”
“It’s going to hurt. Please bear with it.” Zhao Chuchu walked toward the principal with the needles in her hand.
The principal laughed and said, “I’m not afraid of pain.”
Zhao Chuchu nodded and said, “Yup, man people say that, but they still can’t take it.”
The principal wasn’t bothered by that. He thought that the pain from acupuncture wasn’t a big deal since he had experienced it before.
However, the principal soon realized how wrong he was.
The pain was much worse than the pain he felt when his condition flared up.
He couldn’t help but groan in pain.
The vice principal and teachers knew that Zhao Chuchu and Xie Heng had already gone to the principal. They were on their way to the principal’s office.
Before they even reached his door, they heard the principal yelling.
They hurriedly charged into the room, only to see the principal with his shirt off halfway and drooping over his chest. There were needles all over his shoulder.
The principal was sweating profusely from the pain at this point. He grabbed the chair handles as tightly as he could to prevent himself from going berserk.
He was in so much pain that he didn’t even have the strength to wave to the vice principal and teachers.
“Xie Heng, what did you do to the principal? Why is he in so much pain?” The vice principal frowned and said, “I hope nothing severe happens.”
Yu Linjiang was dragged up from his bed just moments ago. He arrived in a hurry and said to the vice principal, “Vice principal, I told you that Xie Heng and Zhao Chuchu are both just scammers. I’ve never seen a real doctor make his patient suffer like this during treatment. They’re not curing him! They’re killing him!”
He felt like he had concrete evidence for his accusations. He yelled loudly,
“Someone quick! Come save the principal! What if Zhao Chuchu killed him?
Capture Xie Heng and Zhao Chuchu and take them to the government bureau!”
Yu Linjiang yelled, yet he stood there without moving.
Xie Heng looked at him like he was looking at an idiot.
The principal didn’t call for help himself. What if they went forward out of impulse and actually hurt the principal?
Everyone knew that Yu Linjiang disliked Xie Heng.
Nobody was stupid enough to be taken advantage of by him.
The vice principal saw that the principal didn’t say anything, so he glared at Yu
Linjiang and asked, “What nonsense are you spouting? All of you, get out. Don’t distract Mrs. Xie!”
Yu Liniiang’s exoression changed slightly after the vice principal said that. He tried to argue. “But the principal is in so much pain…”
“Get out,” the principal said through clenched teeth. “All of you.”
Yu Linjiang couldn’t say anything else.
Zhao Chuchu looked at him with a mocking smile on her face, which made him feel a little mad.
In front of his teachers and the principal, Yu Linjiang didn’t dare to say anything else. He left the room with his tail between his legs.
It must have been Xie Heng who deceived the principal with words. Otherwise, there was no way that the principal would believe a teenage girl could treat his illness.
As Yu Linjiang thought about his great plan, he sneered. He was going to expose the fact that Zhao Chuchu didn’t know anything about medicine..
