Master of the Stars

Luo Nan could feel that his aunt was like a bird startled by the mere twang of a bow. They had hospitalized him for two consecutive weeks, so his aunt was easily frightened due to these past experiences. She was likely to increase her watch over him to the next level.

Furthermore, he had entered the Society, which brought up an entire set of annoyances. He also had to think of his studies. He would need a large amount of free time to handle all this. He absolutely couldn’t be stuck at home like a caged bird, so he needed to find a passable excuse to avoid this.

Xue Lei’s proposal today was an excellent excuse.

Divine Yu Gym was located in the River Wu District. Practicing martial arts was certainly something that required time. Perhaps, it would even need one to take morning lessons. It would be great if he could get this to happen. No matter how much his aunt wanted to keep a close eye on him, she wouldn’t be so insensible to have him shuttle back and forth for half a day between districts. Wouldn’t the apartment in Blue Bay be the perfect spot? Then, he wouldn’t need to stay with his aunt.

Of course, in order to get this plan to work, he would need the help of others. Just Xue Lei may not be enough.

Who else could help him? Actually, Luo Nan did not have many options.

He lowered his head, swiped through his wristband and found the way to contact Bai Xinyan. He was just about to call. Suddenly, he recalled that his aunt went to go see Bai Xinyan. It would be super awkward if his plan was found out through his own voice over the phone.

A thought stirred in Luo Nan’s mind, and he excused himself to the restroom. He walked a few steps and the star river scene was already projected in his mind.

Luo Nan restricted the range of his mental senses. Under this precondition, the physical range covered only a few of the adjacent floors. Yet, there were still several hundred Life Sketches pieced together within these floors. The starlight of nebulae intertwined to reveal many levels of information. Then, all Luo Nan did was pick the areas he was interested in. He heightened his sensing precision and applied his clairvoyance.

This sort of perspective was like a god’s. It felt truly unmatched. But before Luo Nan could lock onto Bai Xinyan, he found another person instead.

How strange. He Yueyin was actually still here.

He Yueyin was walking within the building of Renai Hospital, as she headed toward Bai Xinyan’s temporary office in Renai Hospital.

Bai Xinyan was a world-class expert on neuroregeneration. Moreover, she was a doctor of medicine and of philosophy at the Clay Laboratory. Even though she only had Luo Nan as her single patient, Renai Hospital treated her excellently. She was given a large office that was like a deluxe suite. During guard hours, she could come here to take naps. There was not anything to be picky about it except for its distance to Luo Nan’s ward.

He Yueyin did not call out or anything. She simply walked in.

In the room, Bai Xinyan had already taken off her white doctor’s gown. She was wearing a snow-white turtleneck sweater. It hugged her body, which made her face appear larger, but it did not make her look fat. Instead, it fully revealed her curves and accentuated her perfectly beautiful body. This sight caused one to yearn for her.

Right now, there was a rather handsome male doctor in the room as well. He stayed here to titularly talk about academics. He would find anything to speak of until their shift was over. Then, he would ask this free-spirited and hot female doctor out for dinner.

Bai Xinyan was quite patient. She held a cup of coffee and laughed, as she talked with him. This was a waste of time, but she was not agitated nor did she rush.

He Yueyin simply pushed the door open and entered and scared the male doctor. The male doctor was about to explode with rage, but he turned and was met with a pair of cold and clear pupils. His heart shuddered inexplicably, and he instinctively cowered a bit. "Is this your friend, Dr. Bai?"

Bai Xinyan nodded with a smile, as she raised the cup in her hand at the same time. The meaning was very clear.

The male doctor even wanted to introduce himself and get to know another beautiful woman. But there was a hint of embarrassment on his face, and he did not have any more courage. In the end, he shrunk away self-consciously.

Bai Xinyan sipped on her hot coffee. She had no intentions of courteously greeting He Yueyin. In any case, she would just be inviting rejection if she did so.

He Yueyin walked straight before Bai Xinyan and stood directly opposite of her. It seemed that He Yueyin was a bit shorter than Bai Xinyan in height, but her aura, which was callous and clear, evidently grew stronger.

"I called you over from across the ocean, from Los Angeles, not for you to do some happy-go-lucky treatment."

Bai Xinyan was the perfect example of a free-spirited woman. She was like the fleeting clouds and the warm breeze. She shifted her cup away and revealed a face of innocence. "So, you want me to drill your boss until he’s weeping and crying? Would that satisfy you?"

"I know you White Salt. You also once said to me that every case of happy-go-lucky treatment is for dead people. That’s what you said to me back in Los Angeles..."

Bai Xinyan burst out into laughter. She reached out to touch He Yueyin’s cheek. "But you’re alive and well! And you’re so beautiful!"

He Yueyin pushed her hand aside. Her expression was calm. "You know the state of my body more than I."

"Alright, Mrs. Flirt! Yep, Sister He is most intimate after all. In any case, I want to tell you something. Doctors have the right to formulate plans for their patients; each and every plan is established based on the patient’s personal situation. It doesn’t matter if its happy-go-lucky treatment or active intervention. There are specific plans for dealing with specific conditions. This is the objective reality. There’s nothing more to it."

Bai Xinyan swayed her coffee cup back and forth, as she let the black liquid inside swing as well. Yet, she did not spill a single drop. "From what I’ve observed of your boss’ situation, the current happy-go-lucky treatment is the best choice for him. As for whether or not things will go like you say, and if there will be variables appearing in the future... I look forward to it as well... Are you satisfied with my answer?"

"Even if it reaches the point of being incurable?"

Luo Nan perceived the entire confrontation between the two beauties absolutely clearly, but he did not act like someone in a soap-opera, like it was the end of the world, like life was not worth living.

Luo Nan merely shrugged in the restroom and sighed. "It seems that I have set up the external neuron successfully yet again."

This marvelous little device was able to bear the pressure of his soul strength, and it could hide itself perfectly. It was even able to avoid detection from the Ouyang Chen’s examinations, Bai Xinyan, and other people, which caused errors of judgment... Unfortunately, the external neuron made him appear overly naive and optimistic.

In fact, things were not as everyone else believed. Luo Nan really did know the seriousness of the state of his own body. In his understanding, he had a far more pessimistic judgment toward the degree of imbalance with his body and soul.

However, he was still able to bear it due to relying on the marvelous uses of the external neuron.

Bai Xinyan’s judgment over the state of his body did not scare him, but the concern hidden beneath He Yueyin’s cool and calm demeanor was quite moving.

At this time, Luo Nan could sense that his aunt would soon arrive at Bai Xinyan’s office. He could no longer afford to tarry, so he rushed to give Bai Xinyan a call.

The call startled Bai Xinyan, as she was in the middle of a confrontation. She laughed and flashed her wristband to He Yueyin. Then, she picked up call. "Student Luo Nan. Where are you feeling unwell?"

"Ugh, Dr. Bai. There’s something I wish to ask you."

"What is it?"

"The endurance of my body..."

"Are you peeping on us?"

"..."

"You should be able to reach here with the range of your mental senses. I can only believe that you’re feeling guilty about your actions if this isn’t the first time you’ve come around like this."

Bai Xinyan’s gaze circled in the air for a revolution. It was as if she could really see through Luo Nan.

Although Luo Nan knew she had not truly seen him, she still gave him a scare. However, he ultimately did not break his clairvoyance. He made some mental preparations in his mind and pretended that he was just watching Bai Xinyan with a special videophone. He took a breath and said,

"I wanted to ask Dr. Bai if you would be so kind to grant me permission for normal physical exercise."

"Oh, I said this before. You have to minimize the volume you do."

"Not that, I just want to learn breathing techniques to alleviate my coughing."

Bai Xinyan clearly sunk into deep thought, probably because this idea was outside her expectations. A moment later she said, "Where? A fitness center?"

"Uh, no. Leister recommended it to me. It’s a daoguan, a gym, that he trains in."

"Leister? Xue Lei?" Bai Xinyan went into deep thought again after she confirmed the reason. He Yueyin gave Bai Xinyan a nod in this moment, which indicated her approval.

If Luo Nan could see it; Bai Xinyan certainly saw it too. However, Bai Xinyan did not follow He Yueyin’s script. She just revealed a mysterious smile.

"What is the name of that gym?"

"Divine Yu. Divine Yu Gym."

Luo Nan felt something the moment the words left his mouth. He did not know if he imagined it or not, but the instant the two beautiful women crossed gazes, their expressions, aura, and the air became cold enough to cause Luo Nan to tremble from the bottom of his heart.
