Oh my god! The goddess secretly gave birth to three obedient daughters for me

"Alright, alright, I got it. Don't worry, I've been eating well and cooperating these past few days."

"Okay, I've got something else to take care of on my end, so I need to get going. I'll just give Liu Yao a heads-up and then I'll leave."

"Young man, you've worked so hard already, and look at the time – you, you should just stay, Yaoyao, Yaoyao."

As he spoke, he shouted loudly towards the outside.

At that moment, Liu Yao was right outside in the living room. In fact, she too was eager to know what was happening inside the room.

Soon, the door was pushed open by Liu Yao.

"Mom, what's wrong? Is there something the matter?"

Liu Yao's expression still looked somewhat tense.

The tenser the situation, the more Lin Yi felt that this girl still harbored certain doubts about him.

"Nothing much. He's just finished treating me. There's no serious problem. Look at the time – isn't it time for you to go down and have dinner with him?"

"Oh, don't worry about that; I'll go down with him."

"Alright, my leg still isn't convenient. If one day I really can stand up again, I will surely cook you a good meal to let you taste auntie's cooking skills."

"Hehe, okay, auntie, I've got it. I'll be leaving now."

He didn't linger too long; then, in a hurry, he left the room.

He looked back and saw Liu Yao following closely behind him.

"What's the matter? Isn't it enough to walk me out this far? Are you going to personally see me home?"

"No, it's just that my mom mentioned, didn't she? She asked me to arrange for you to have a meal. There are some fast-food places at the door; let me take you to grab something to eat."

"Hehe, why do you sound so reluctant? If your mom hadn't agreed, would you not be offering me this meal?"

"No, no, that's not what I meant, I really didn't mean that."

Liu Yao hurriedly explained herself here, not wanting Lin Yi to misunderstand her at this moment.

After all, he was still helping her, and it would be somewhat unpleasant to have misunderstandings arise at this time.

"We don't need to talk about having a meal, but there are some things I want to discuss with you. However, since my arrival, I can clearly see that your mom's emotions have eased up a lot. At the very least, she's doing better than last time."

"That's right, actually, I've noticed it myself these past few days. Let me tell you, my mom has never shown such emotions ever in all these years. I'm telling you, it's all because of you. You brought her the hope of life, which is why she is so determined now."

"Hehe, what else could it be? It's really fascinating how attitudes can change sometimes. She seemed ready to let go of everything, but upon discovering she could continue to live, she would certainly still wish to stay in this world."

"Exactly, that's what I mean, so, I'm really very grateful to you."

"You can be grateful to me, but I feel like you still have a reserved attitude towards me?"

"What do you mean? Reserved about what?"

At this point, Liu Yao just frowned slightly.

She didn't understand what Lin Yi meant by that.

"I know you still don't quite trust me. Plus, after the last treatment, you took your mom for a CT scan that same night, didn't you?"

"No, not at all."

At this point, Liu Yao really didn't know how to respond.

She could only deal with it as best as she could, hoping that all this was just his speculation.

"Come on, you can't fool my eyes. Whether you had a scan or not, I can tell just by looking because there is a very obvious sign of radiation at the position of her leg bone. Although the dose was not very high and is within a controllable safety range, it must have been the result of a standard examination procedure used."

Liu Yao was utterly astonished by what Lin Yi was saying now.

She hadn't revealed anything, yet he had laid out everything before her. Clearly, this person was not as simple as she had imagined.

He must be hiding much more than what met the eye, yet she remained full of curiosity about him.

"Yes, I admit, I did go that day. I just wanted to verify what exactly you did to treat my mom. However, the CT imaging showed something like post-operative traces without any actual surgery having been performed; you achieved the effects of surgery just through the use of an embroidery needle, right?"

"What you saw is what it means."

"But how did you do all this? Even the most skilled surgical expert in our department couldn't achieve such results."

"So, if you really trust me, then staying by my side, I will certainly not disappoint you."

"I'd really like to ask, does my mom still have a chance to stand up again?"

"Yes, she still has a chance to stand up. Additionally, there's something else: today I predicted that her right ankle, roughly around here, might show some developments in the next two or three days."

As Lin Yi spoke, he gestured to the same spot on his ankle to Liu Yao.

"What do you mean by developments? What kind of developments will happen?"

"That, I'm not sure. But I assume something new will grow in that area, similar to a malignant bone tumor."

"So you mean, it might recur again?"

Hearing this, Liu Yao suddenly felt a sense of despair for some reason.

Hopes of life brought to her had repeatedly led to endless despair, something she truly found hard to accept.

"But don't worry, it should still be within my control. For now, it hasn't grown enough for me to treat it extensively."

"So, that means, you can only treat her when it starts to show symptoms, is that right?"

"Exactly, and I should be leaving here within a day or two to collect some medicinal herbs at a certain place. After I return, I believe your mother's condition should significantly improve to a certain extent."
