9 The Only Way to Cure It

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

After all these arguments, Lin Ya felt that Li Yi was a quack, whereas Bai Youyun felt that Li Yi knew what he was doing.

Moreover, based on what Lin Ya had just said, Bai Youyun seemed to have detected some problems.

After Li Yi saw that both of them had calmed back down, he began to break the situation down.

"Miss Lin said that you spent a large amount of money to provide the Fire Sparrow the best living environment."

"But what I want to say is that, while you may find it to be the best possible living environment, the Fire Sparrow does not."

Hearing this, Bai Youyun became a little flustered. Had she been doing it wrong this entire time?

Li Yi continued to explain, "From my question and Lin Ya's words just now, it's not hard to see that while your Fire Sparrow is living a luxurious life, it doesn't have any freedom."

"You said before that you get up at six o'clock every morning to train with the Fire Sparrow. Did you ever notice whether or not it was willing to train with you?"

Bai Youyun heard this and thought about it for a moment before shaking her head.

"You train hard in order to participate in the competition. You think that you are working very hard, but in reality, you are the only one who feels this way."

These words felt like a sharp sword that pierced Bai Youyun's heart, bringing with it the understanding of much truth.

Lin Ya, who was standing at her side, heard this. Even though she didn't like Li Yi, she still felt that these words were somewhat reasonable.

"It seems that this is the problem. All living creatures yearn for freedom. You've taken away the Fire Sparrow's freedom and even forced it to train with you every day. You're lucky it didn't already collapse in its cage and die there."

When she heard this, Bai Youyun felt ashamed and subconsciously lowered her head.

"Then, Dr. Li, is there a way to treat it?"

Li Yi Thought for a moment. This illness could be considered a mental illness, similar to depression.

It could not be cured by simply taking medicine.

All she could was to go home and make it comfortable, slowly giving it its sense of freedom back.

But if that's all he did for them, then that in their eyes would not amount to curing anything. He would seem like quite a useless doctor.

Suddenly, Li Yi had an idea. Since it was no use removing the [ Anorexia ] Status, why not try adding another status?

If he added another Status that lasted a long time, it might be able to cancel the other one out!

In order to cancel out the Anorexia Status, he would probably just have to give it a Hunger Status.

As long as the Fire Sparrow remained hungry, it would start to eat slowly.

The Weakness Status brought about by its refusal to eat would slowly disappear.

This conjecture of his seemed like a feasible treatment plan.

However, at that time he did not have any Hunger Shards.

The pet beasts that came to see him were all fed well, hence he never had a chance to get any Hunger Shards.

"Miss Bai, I have thought of a feasible treatment plan."

Hearing this, Bai Youyun immediately smiled excitedly.

"Really? Thank you so much!"

Li Yi continued, "I'm going to find some medicine for the Fire Sparrow tomorrow. Why don't you come with me?"

Bai Youyun agreed without thinking, "No problem, I'll go with you!"

As long as he could save her Fire Sparrow, going out to shop with him was no big deal.

However, when Lin Ya heard this, she immediately expressed her dissatisfaction, "You quack doctor, I see that you don't have a treatment plan at all. You're just trying to get in her pants. When you saw how cute and beautiful my Youyun is, you began to have indecent thoughts!"

"You're going out to buy medicine? What kinda excuse is that? If you want to go on a date, just say so!"

When Bai Youyun heard this, she was a little embarrassed. She could see that Li Yi was not really interested in her. Lin Ya was just too sensitive.

"Lin Ya, it's just to buy some medicine. We won't do anything else."

Lin Ya chuckled and said confidently, "Yes, first it's just to go buy medicine, but after that I'm afraid he's going to push his luck!"

Bai Youyun sighed helplessly. She felt a little embarrassed and did not know what to say to Li Yi.

Li Yi was a little surprised by Lin Ya's reaction. This woman was a little crazy…

It seemed that she did have odd feelings for Bai Youyun.

These two were the most difficult customers Li Yi had ever met in his career. However, Bai Youyun was from a rich family, so Li Yi did not want to miss this business opportunity.

"Miss Lin, I'm treating Bai Youyun's pet. It doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, right? If you don't like it, you don't have to come tomorrow."

Hearing this, Lin Ya erupted into rage.

"You want to be alone with her? Not going to happen, absolutely not!"

At that moment, the door of the consultation room burst open and Zhang San poked his head in.

"What happened? I heard yelling."

Li Yi was a little speechless. Lin Ya's temper tantrum managed to alarm Zhang San.

"Zhang San, you came at just the right time. This beautiful lady here doesn't believe in my medical skills. You tell her."

Zhang San immediately became animated. "Dammit, there are actually people in this world who don't believe in Dr. Li's medical skills?"

"Go outside and ask literally anyone. All you have to say is 'Dr. Li' and everyone you meet will praise him. You're the only one who doesn't know what's good!"

"Sure, sometimes Dr. Li's prescriptions are a little strange, but the outcomes are all first-class. You don't have to doubt that!"

Zhang San kept praising him, but Lin Ya still would not buy it.

"I'm still convinced this doctor here has been ensnared by your beauty. No doubt he's gonna want to ask you out and take the opportunity to start courting you!"

Lin Ya whispered to Bai Youyun.

Bai Youyun thought for a moment, but she still felt that Li Yi was not that kind of person.

At that moment, Li Yi was starting to get impatient. He had already wasted too much time on the two of them.

"I don't want to waste any more time on the two of you. I have other things to do."

"If you don't want to do this, I won't force you. Please leave."

Li Yi stood up and prepared to send them off, causing Bai Youyun to panic..

After so many days, this was the first sign of hope she had encountered.

If she failed to take this chance, then she would not even be able to participate in the competition.

The entire family would be ashamed of her.

Gritting her teeth, she decided to trust Li Yi. She believed that he could save her Fire Sparrow!

Bai Youyun thought for a moment, then said, "No problem. I'll go out with you tomorrow. I'll let you decide where we go!"

Lin Ya said in a low voice, "I respect your decision. If you trust him, then I won't say anything more."

"Hehe, just trust Brother Li. I guarantee that he can cure your Fire Sparrow!"Zhang San said with a smile.

Bai Youyun lifted the cage and looked at Li Yi. "Well, I'll have to get going. Give me a call tomorrow morning when you're leaving."

As she spoke, she placed her business card on the table.

Li Yi picked up the business card and put it into his pocket.

"Then wait till you hear from me tomorrow. I will cure your Fire Sparrow."

Bai Youyun nodded slightly and left the hospital, with Lin Ya close behind her.

Following that, Li Yi began to make preparations for the next day. There were not very many places where he could obtain a large number of Hunger Shards…
