Chapter 602: Ning Shuqian Has Hysteria?

Old Mr. Wen’s fear-inspiring aura, cold and stern expression, as well as icy sharp gaze, struck Ning Shuqian and made her forget her words instantly.

Old Mr. Wen looked at Du Shinan with respect in his eyes and said with a tinge of humility, “Trouble Master Du to help read her pulse and see how’s her condition.”

Saying which, Old Mr. Wen turned his gaze towards Wen Xinya who was beside Du Shinan.

Her gaze was so mild that it was devoid of emotions. She was also expressionless besides a slight pursing of lips with a tinge of sharpness. This was his granddaughter—deep in her tactics, brilliant in her methods, outright in her ways, and unattainable by anyone.

Ning Shuqian’s pregnancy affected her the most as her identity got questioned and her status in the circle destabilized. However, she remained still, plotting step by step, prompting his suspicion towards Ning Shuqian, and then put on this show at her own coming-of-age ceremony.

Perhaps others didn’t know the scheming behind this, but he knew everything clearly!

Ning Shuqian wasn’t pregnant—previously, it was just a suspicion, and this moment confirmed it.

When Ning Shuqian, using the excuse of her fake pregnancy, stirred up storms in the Wen Family at her will, she had observed with detachment. However, she was planning a sneak attack, waiting to deal a deadly blow on her coming-of-age ceremony.

Previously, at the Wen Corporation’s annual gala, Ning Shuqian had made use of her to reveal her pregnancy and slapped her in public, utterly humiliating her, causing her identity to be questioned, and making her plunge into distress. Now, she would give her a taste of her own medicine, with a method that was even more ruthless than Ning Shuqian’s—to directly expose her fake pregnancy in front of everyone, thoroughly defeating Ning Shuqian.

Such a deep and harsh tactic was ruthless and vicious—even him in his younger days paled in comparison to this.

However, what made him feel relieved was that while Ning Shuqian schemed underhandedly, she used open and aboveboard methods.

Wen Xinya calmly met Grandpa’s gaze.

“No… I don’t want to… I want to go to the hospital… I want to go to the hospital…” Ning Shuqian’s pupils dilated incessantly as she watched Du Shinan walked towards her step by step. The obviously calm footsteps became aggressiveness in her eyes, with each step seemingly embodying massive aura, making her feel pressed and totally breathless.

Her breathing kept hastening as she panted heavily, her enlarged pupils, almost bursting, had a tinge of terror, and her protruding eyeballs stood still, forgetting to move, making her lose her focus and dissipating her gaze.

Her vision seemed to be surreal as Du Shinan’s face twisted and contorted into a green-faced, teeth-baring monster, marching towards her with his bloody mouth wide open, wanting to swallow her.

“Ah! Go away, go away…” Ning Shuqian shrieked miserably and hysterically as she flailed her arms like a lunatic, preventing Du Shinan from coming close.

Her madness made Wen Haowen’s expression even colder. “Shuqian, stop it. Be good and let Master Du read your pulse. Master Du is highly skilled—it’s your great fortune to have him read your pulse.”

However, Wen Haowen’s words were totally ignored by Ning Shuqian. Her splitting headache made her feel all dizzy. “I don’t want to have my pulse read, no! No… I want to go to the hospital, hospital…”

Still in her madness, Ning Shuqian’s felt increasingly giddy as the green-faced, teeth-baring Du Shinan multiplied in her head and dashed towards her with vicious looks and menacing eyes, as if they would pounce on her and feast on her flesh and blood any moment.

She was terrified and kept screaming, shrilling, and shrieking. “Don’t come close, don’t come close…”

Ning Shuqian stared around ferociously, her shocking madness spreading within her, shocking almost everyone present at the banquet, and even making the more timid ones subconsciously gasp and step back.

Ning Shuqian was crazy!

“Go away, go away… Don’t eat me…” The burning splendor indoors blinded Ning Shuqian’s eyes. She squinted her eyes, her gaze in a blur, her vision left with the outline of the venue with the people before her instantly turning into green-faced, teeth-baring monsters, dashing at her and surrounding her.

As if Ning Shuqian had gone mad, she shrieked, sobbed, screamed incessantly, flailing her arms non-stop. Wen Haowen was the closest to her and got scratched by her sharp nails, instantly presenting two scratch marks on his face. The heart-wrenching pain was nothing compared to the embarrassment.

At this point, Du Shinan took a huge step forward and placed a silver needle into an acupuncture point on her head. Ning Shuqian’s hysterical emotions and crazy actions instantly quietened down.

In a daze, Ning Shuqian leaned slightly on the chair.

Firstly, Du Shinan checked her head and said, “Her head was seriously injured previously. As she had been overly agitated many times during recuperation, causing her to not heal completely. Due to being suddenly agitated, she completely lost control of her mind, couldn’t manage her emotions, and started hallucinating.”

“May I ask Master Du if her condition is considered serious?” Wen Haowen had originally been fuming because of the scratches on his face. However, hearing Du Shinan’s words, his anger dissipated. Ning Shuqian had injured her head from banging her head against the wall to prove her innocence due to the scandal previously, landing her into her current state.

Du Shinan said plainly, “Her condition isn’t too serious. However, such an illness could easily turn into hysteria if not treated as soon as possible.”

Everyone was shocked. Hysteria was a type of mental illness mainly manifesting as emotional outbursts when agitated—suddenly crying and shouting out loud, thumping chest and stomping feet, tearing up clothes and destroying objects, and slamming against walls, all of which intensifying when being surrounded by people.

It was a very scary type of mental illness which was also hard to treat.

Shocked, Wen Haowen couldn’t help but feel a sense of dryness in his throat as he instinctively asked, “May I ask Master Du, how can we treat this type of illness?”

Du Shinan’s expression darkened. “This type of illness is very hard to treat. The ordinary treatments only address the symptoms instead of the root of the condition. I have a course of acupuncture treatment which, coupled with medication, will treat it within three months.”

Wen Haowen was overjoyed and said hurriedly, “Trouble Master Du for your prescription.”

Although Ning Shuqian’s illness wasn’t serious and had yet to develop into hysteria, he still couldn’t bear with it.

Du Shinan’s tone mellowed down. “I’ve already given Xinya that girl face by reading her pulse. I have my medical ethics and reputation. Ning Shuqian insulted me in public, calling me a quack and saying that I only gained fame by deceiving the public. This is a slap on my old face and backstabbing me. Since she’s not convinced by me, I naturally have the reason not to treat her.”

He was plainly unwilling to treat.

Wen Haowen’s expression was terrible as he said sheepishly, “Master Du, my wife only did that as she lost control of her emotions and didn’t mean to insult you. Could you please…”

His voice was humble and his expression was trying hard to please.

However, Du Shinan didn’t even bother looking at Wen Haowen and only placed his hand on Ning Shuqian’s wrist to read her pulse.
