On the day of her return to China, she was tied up and coaxed by the richest man to get her marriage

Fifteen minutes later.

Yu Jinzhao walked out of the medical room, drenched in sweat, his clear eyes revealing undisguised exhaustion.

Gu Xiao handed the warm milk that Grandpa Wen had prepared to her and fed her a couple of sips, then asked with concern, "How is it?"

Yu Jinzhao mustered some strength and said with a slight smile, "I can hold on until I bleed."

The medical team looked at each other in disbelief, went in to conduct a thorough examination, and then each of them was filled with astonishment.

"Incredible!" The usually composed attending physician couldn't contain his excitement as he walked out, staring incredulously at Yu Jinzhao's hands. "He's mobilized all the blood and energy in his body. How did he do that?"

Yu Jinzhao's expression shifted slightly. He sat on the bench, lowered his eyes, and put away the gold needles in his hand.

Gu Xiao glanced sharply at them, suppressing the restless medical team, "Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask, and pretend you didn't see anything!"

His words, though spoken without anger, were forceful and authoritative, as if an invisible pressure was emanating from the air. The entire medical team's expressions changed slightly, and they obediently lowered their heads.

Based on Gu Xiao's warning and the young lady's superb acupuncture skills... it's not hard to guess that the origin of these golden needles is not simple.

It's something that these insignificant people could never know.

Yu Jinzhao leaned against the wall, slowly rubbing his sore fingers, when he suddenly felt two intense, burning gazes.

Following her gaze, she saw Bo Sibai and Bo Xingzhou staring intently at her, their eyes brimming with a myriad of unspeakable emotions, heavy and powerful.

"May I see the gold needles in your hand?" Bo Sibai's Adam's apple bobbed, his warm voice low and hoarse.

Everyone here is trustworthy, so there's nothing to be wary of.

But Yu Jinzhao always remembered what her mother had said: she must not let the gold needles fall into the hands of others. After nodding slightly, she spread the gold needles out in her palm and let them see them.

Bo Sibai and his companion's gaze fell on the base of the golden needle.

There are special symbols engraved there, somewhat like totems, revealing its mysterious and ancient heritage. Just looking at it evokes a sense of awe and reverence in one's heart.

The two were struck dumb.

Bo Xingzhou's eyes trembled as he stared at the golden needles, seemingly on the verge of tears. His voice was low and urgent, like the rubbing of sandpaper. "Where did this come from?"

Yu Jinzhao was taken aback by his outburst, but still remained somewhat wary, so she quietly looked at him and asked, "Why are you asking this?"

My mother always said to be wary of anyone who knows how to use golden needles.

In Bo Xingzhou's deep, frighteningly dark eyes, intense emotions surged; an uncontrollable longing manifested in choked words.

“These are my aunt’s gold needles.”

Yu Jinzhao's breathing suddenly stopped for a moment, he swallowed, and his heart began to race.

"sure?"

“There’s no mistake.” Bo Sibai’s breathing was uneven, his long, curled fingers were faintly red at the knuckles, and his eyes were filled with a bright mist, shattering the gentleness in his bones. He murmured, “Auntie said that the golden needles should be passed on to my sister…”

Why did it end up in Yu Jinchao's hands...?

At this moment, the troubling thoughts and the unclear details, like vines, tangled wildly and instantly formed a single line.

A person who has lost their way has finally found direction after wandering for half their life.

He looked up, gazing sadly into her anxious fox-like eyes.

A choking sound came from his throat, muffled yet firm.

"You are my younger sister."

As the wind swept through Yu Jinzhao's heart, the seeds hidden beneath found their way back amidst the fierce throbbing and began to sprout and grow wildly.

Her heart was pounding, her eyes were unconsciously moist, and her vision blurred.
