Because Yun Shu had already healed him when others doubted him!
At this moment, everyone was shocked.
Unimaginable.
It seemed many still remembered the doctors and physicians who had queued up in front of the Night King's mansion for years. Almost everyone who emerged from the Night King's mansion would shake their heads.
They had all concluded that the chances of the Night King being able to stand again in this lifetime were extremely slim.
Even that he would be confined to a wheelchair or bed for the rest of his life, absolutely incapable of standing.
And the result!
The Night King was now standing before the world!
Just like five or six years ago, tall and straight, his aura chillingly astounding.
When his gaze swept over the crowd, it was distant yet profound.
If looks could kill, his would surely do so.
Someone gasped.
Tonight's hot spring villa was truly astonishing!
Zhan Tianyu had just returned.
He had invited everyone here tonight and shouldn't have been away for so long.
Yet he had been gone for a considerable time.
As soon as he returned, he was shocked to see Zhan Tianye standing and walking.
Neither he nor Zhan Tianhong could match Zhan Tianye's height.
Because Zhan Tianye had been in a wheelchair when he last saw him, his height was not apparent.
The pressure, both in aura and height, struck them directly.
"You can actually stand up," Zhan Tianyu said with an unreadable expression.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Zhan Tianye turned his gaze to Zhan Tianyu, and finally to Yun Shu, "Yes, I can stand up."
This move further confirmed the crowd's earlier suspicions!
It was indeed Yun Shu who had saved the Night King!
Everyone else had said the Night King would never stand again, yet Yun Shu had miraculously healed him!
Who else in the world could achieve this?
No wonder, no wonder, look at how the Night King looked at Yun Shu now, his eyes filled with doting affection!
Many women began to envy her with red eyes.
Ahhh!
That was the Night King!
In front of the Night King, even the Prince of Ning had to bow his head!
"No need to be so surprised. Let the singing and dancing continue," Zhan Tianye said indifferently.
His demeanor was so nonchalant, as if his ability to stand now was a trivial matter, completely insignificant.
The shock of the people present was suddenly made to seem like an overreaction.
Yun Shu couldn't help but smile inwardly. As expected of the fearsome Night King. When he doesn't act, he stuns everyone, yet he can still appear so calm. However, why did he choose to reveal this today?
She was curious; something must have happened during his absence.
"Second Miss Yun, you are truly amazing!"
While others were still shocked and jealous of Yun Shu, Chen Ai couldn't help but exclaim.
Yun Shu smiled at Chen Ai.
Chen Ai was completely mesmerized. Not only was Yun Shu a skilled physician, but her beauty also made many feel inadequate. With just a smile, it was as if the entire world brightened.
If Yun Shu wished to be a femme fatale who would bring down nations, the world would surely fall into chaos!
The song and dance resumed.
But the hearts of those present were in turmoil.
They couldn't concentrate on the music or appreciate the dance.
Zhan Tianyu seemed to drink glass after glass of wine with a forced smile.
Zhan Tianhong simply congratulated his fifth brother and then followed the ministers in drinking glass after glass of wine.
Only Jiang Luoxi's heart was still in shock.
She regretted it!
She shouldn't have chosen to enter the imperial harem!
As time gradually passed, night fell.
Everyone gradually ate and drank their fill.
Zhan Tianyu arranged for the servants to lead everyone to rest, and those who wished to enjoy the hot springs could go.
In the vast hot spring villa,
Lights blazed everywhere.
Yun Shu was assigned a room in the west wing, with Chen Ai in the adjacent room.
The hot spring villa had east, west, north, and south wings, with less than a hundred rooms in total.
Unmarried women like her were placed in the west wing, while the east wing was for the officials and their wives.
Zhan Tianye resided in the south wing.
They hadn't exchanged many words since leaving the banquet.
Acha brought in a plate of fruit, "It was sent by the villa's servants. Everyone in the west wing received one."
After placing it down, she took out a silver needle to test for poison.
Seeing Acha's action, Yun Shu smiled, "Silver needles can't detect many poisons. Bring it here, let me see."
Acha put away the silver needle and brought the fruit platter over, "We really need to be careful everywhere here."
Yun Shu examined it. The fruit platter was not large, and the fruits inside were abundant. Zhan Tianyu would have to spend a lot of money for everyone to be guests at the hot spring villa today.
The fruits were very fresh, clearly just cut.
She picked up a piece of watermelon and took a bite. It was sweet and juicy.
"Miss!" Acha exclaimed. How could Miss eat it just like that? This fruit might have been tampered with!
Seeing Acha's nervousness, Yun Shu handed the fruit platter to Acha, "Don't worry, eat it. Nothing has been done to it."
When she first saw the fruit platter, she thought it must have been tampered with, as it was a good opportunity. After a busy half-day and eating some dishes at the banquet, eating some sweet fruit at this hour would be refreshing and hard to refuse.
"There's no poison! Look at how worried I am," Acha was immediately relieved, and then internally chided herself for being foolish. Her mistress could always tell if something was poisoned by just smelling or looking at it.
She had been too preoccupied with guarding herself and had forgotten how capable her mistress was.
"Eat up, you've been standing all night without eating much," Yun Shu told Acha to eat the fruits from the platter.
Acha was obedient, eating as she said, "I've already eaten something, the pastries I brought from the manor. I'm not hungry now."
After eating a few pieces of fruit, she lowered her voice and said, "I've scouted around again, but I still haven't seen Jing Heng. I don't know where he's hiding. It's been over two hours since we entered the villa, and he still hasn't appeared. I don't know what he's doing."
"It is indeed a bit mysterious," Yun Shu gazed out the window, lost in thought.
Acha said nothing more.
After a moment, there was noise outside. Many people had already gone to the hot springs.
Yun Shu asked Acha to prepare, and then they also went to the hot spring area.
It was larger than expected, with many maids guarding the surroundings. Inside, there were small partitions, so people couldn't see each other face-to-face, but they could hear each other talk.
Some people had already emerged.
After soaking in the hot springs, one's complexion would become rosy.
There were many people, and it was already crowded inside, so they had to wait for a while.
The maids would remind them that soaking for too long was not advisable, as it could lead to fainting.
Yun Shu waited quietly.
At this moment, she heard someone behind her say, "I don't know if I saw wrong, but I thought I saw Consort Luo and the Night King not far away just now."
