Chapter 243: Chapter 9 Women’s Medical School
Ye Xiao calmly watched the plot unfold.
“Chang Xueqin’s mind was filled with various medical treatment plans. Before Marquis Valiant fell into a coma, he was an unparalleled master, which was the only reason he had survived. Combining her modern experience, it might not be impossible to awaken him. However, she was not certain which plan would be more viable,”
“As she pondered, Chang Xueqin had a dream.”
“In the dream, she used all her lifetime medical skills, trying every possible method, but in the end, she still failed to save Marquis Valiant. The lady of Marquis Residence, who had initially treated her with great courtesy, changed her attitude, calling her a swindler and drove her out of the royal mansion, only the mistress of Marquis Residence continued to suppress her. She could only leave Beijing dejectedly and spent the rest of her life as an obscure doctor, leading a mediocre existence.”
“The dream was somewhat terrifying, and Chang Xueqin’s face revealed a pained expression. Just as she was struggling to wake up, she fell into another dream.”
“This new dream told her she was the protagonist of the world by birth, destined to possess everything. Anyone she resented was doomed to lose everything, and anyone she wished to save was assured of recovery. After discovering this power, she used it on Marquis Valiant. He woke up, overwhelmed with gratitude, and then, they fell deeply in love. He supported her in opening a medical clinic as a woman, and she became a famous female doctor renowned through the ages.”
“After experiencing these two dreams, Chang Xueqin awoke with a trace of confusion in her eyes. Was that… just a dream? Why did it all seem so real, blurring the lines between reality and illusion for a moment? Did she really possess such a ‘golden finger’? If she had such a ‘golden finger’, then was all her hard-earned medical knowledge completely useless?”
Ye Xiao quickly finished reading and couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh.
The person behind all this was truly going to great lengths.
Even if Chang Xueqin had a good nature, having had these two contrasting dreams in a row, she might start to have some thoughts.
That day, Ye Xiao did not use her quota of changes elsewhere, instead accumulating a few words.
But.
Ye Xiao didn’t use her quota of changes here either.
As for dreams, one could have a dream once, and it might not be impossible to have it a second or third time. Being busy altering dreams would only lead to falling into traps.

The person behind the scenes had now clearly laid out the ‘golden finger’ in front of Chang Xueqin, tempting her towards another path that seemed glorious.
The hidden entity intended to manipulate people’s hearts.
But.
How could someone like Chang Xueqin willingly be manipulated?
Ye Xiao raised an eyebrow, revealing a subtle smile. She had read the plot and knew that this time, Chang Xueqin still did not use that ‘golden finger’.
The protagonist was indeed a protagonist, with a willpower far exceeding that of ordinary people.
Night.
Chang Xueqin awoke from a nightmare.
Having had two consecutive dreams, she now appeared somewhat dazed.
She couldn’t help but look at her own fingers.
That dreamscape was just too real.
Could she… truly possess such a power?
Chang Xueqin hesitated for a long while, but in the end, she did not attempt to use this so-called ‘golden finger’.
She was a proud individual, and she did not believe that with her abilities, she truly could not save Marquis Valiant.
The following day.
Chang Xueqin once again provided medical treatment to Marquis Valiant.
Ye Xiao was always waiting by the side.
Chang Xueqin also came up with the first treatment plan.
Ye Xiao watched inconspicuously, knowing that this plan would ultimately fail.
And even the second, third, up to the fifth plan, would all fail.
In the end, after a series of consecutive failures, Chang Xueqin still used the ‘golden finger’.
She saved Marquis Valiant Gu Xu, but she also opened Pandora’s box.
As the plot had written, Chang Xueqin failed over and over again.
She had the same dream every night.
In her dreams, her continuous failures would cause Ye Xiao to greatly change his attitude towards her, ultimately leading her to a tragic end.
Chang Xueqin’s suffering increased by the day.
Reflecting on her past experiences, she vaguely realized that the “golden finger” might actually exist.
There had been several instances in the past. The family members of the original body she disliked had died suddenly over the years, and a patient with a terminal illness had woken up under her strong will.
She had thought it was due to her superior medical skills, but it was very likely that she was unconsciously using the golden finger.
Chang Xueqin vaguely began to doubt herself as well.
Could she really make something of herself in this era?
When she was somewhat distracted, Ye Xiao invited her to have lunch together.
Chang Xueqin gritted her teeth.
According to her dreams, she had failed too many times, and Ye Xiao had grown impatient with her. It must be about time for him to kick her out.
Chang Xueqin felt a complex mix of emotions.
She arrived on time for the lunch, her mind filled with countless thoughts. If all else failed, she would use the golden finger to get past this difficulty. After that… after that, she promised never to use it again.
“Doctor Chang,” Ye Xiao, seemingly unaware of Chang Xueqin’s thoughts, just smiled faintly, “You have worked hard these days.”
Chang Xueqin managed a bitter smile, taking Ye Xiao’s words as sarcasm.
Although the real Ye Xiao had always treated her with great courtesy, the dreams were too vivid. She was still somewhat affected and always felt that Ye Xiao was a person whose actions did not match his words.
Ye Xiao gave her a slight smile. “Doctor Chang, there is just one thing I don’t understand. Why don’t you resume dressing as a woman?”
Chang Xueqin was taken aback, then looked incredulously at Ye Xiao and stammered, “Madam… you…?”
Ye Xiao smiled faintly. “I’m aware that in this world, it’s often more convenient to traverse in men’s clothing. Doctor Chang dresses as a man to reduce trouble. However, I’m quite fond of you, Doctor Chang. Marquis Valiant Residence holds some influence in Beijing. I’ve had an idea recently and need you to resume dressing as a woman to cooperate with me. Would you be willing?”
Chang Xueqin fell silent for a moment before asking with some wariness, “Please tell me, Madam.”
Ye Xiao spoke calmly, “In this world, men each have their own place, while women are often confined to their chambers, with very few able to break free. If she’s from a wealthy family, she might just manage, at least assured of food and clothing. But those poor girls, their fate depends entirely on their fathers, their brothers, their husbands. Don’t they too deserve a place of their own?”
Chang Xueqin listened, somewhat dazed.
She remembered that the original body had committed suicide because her family had forced her to marry an idiot.
Even as a modern person, she had to dress as a man just to survive in this world.
As a man, she had faced many difficulties, but if she were known as a woman, her troubles would likely be a thousand, even a million times worse.
“Doctor Chang, with your medical skills, I intend to open a medical school for women. I plan to recruit some female apprentices free of charge and have you, Doctor Chang, teach them,” Ye Xiao said sincerely. “My aim is to prove that women too can hold up their own sky. Therefore, this matter requires Doctor Chang to resume dressing as a woman. If you agree, I will manage the other matters, and you just need to instruct these girls.”
Chang Xueqin stared at Ye Xiao somewhat blankly.
In her dreams, she had always been pointed and sarcastic.
But what about the actual lady of Marquis Valiant Residence?
She was not only different from the one in her dreams.
She was different from anyone else she had ever seen.
She was a person from ancient times, but her spine was even straighter than that of a modern-day time traveler!
