After Xie Jin hung up the phone, Su Yan frowned and asked, "Senior brother, who called?"

Xie Jin stood up and said, "It's a friend of mine. He's injured, and I need to go over and treat him. I'll have Wen Liangce remove the needles for you later."

Su Yan nodded, "Okay, Senior Brother, go quickly."

Xie Jin glanced at Wen Liangce, who immediately straightened his back and said, "Professor, don't worry, I guarantee I will complete the mission."

Xie Jin responded and then strode away with a sullen face.

It was a little past one in the morning, and the streets were very quiet. Soon, the sound of cars driving away could be heard.

Su Yan couldn't help but ask curiously, "Is my senior brother's friend a lesbian?"

Otherwise, why would Xie Jin be so nervous? He looked like someone had stepped on his tail.

Wen Liangce could roughly guess who the person was, and hesitated before saying, "It's not a woman, it should be a man, the professor's sworn brother."

Sixth Master He's identity is too sensitive; he certainly can't tell Su Yan without the professor's permission.

Su Yan suddenly realized, and then asked, "Assistant Wen, how long have you been working for my senior brother? Why do you call him professor instead of doctor?"

“I’ve been working with the professor since I graduated, for three years now,” Wen Liangce replied. “He used to be our school’s medical professor, so I’m used to calling him that. Usually, other people call him Dr. Xie.”

Xie Jin had corrected his form of address, but he kept forgetting, and gradually the professor got used to it and stopped caring.

"What does my senior brother do for a living? Is he a doctor at a hospital in Guangzhou?"

Wen Liangce scratched his head, wondering how Su Yan could not know anything. Had the professor forgotten to mention it?

"The professor doesn't have a fixed workplace. He sees patients at a top-tier hospital in Guangzhou almost every month. As for surgery, others contact me first, and I relay the message to the professor. Only when the professor agrees can I schedule the surgery. You have no idea, these past few days with the professor, all the original surgeries have been postponed. My phone has been ringing off the hook."

"Is it really that exaggerated?" Su Yan was dumbfounded.

She hadn't expected so many people to be waiting for Xie Jin to have surgery.

Otherwise, she certainly wouldn't have let Xie Jin waste his time on her.

"What's so special about this? The professor's master is Mr. Jue. Although he mainly studied traditional Chinese medicine, the professor and his two fellow students have also reached a high level of proficiency in Western medicine. Moreover, the professor has never had a single accident during the surgeries he has performed, so many people are willing to wait in long lines to have the professor perform their surgeries."

When the professor is in a good mood, he performs surgeries for half the month; when he's in a bad mood, he might only perform two or three surgeries a month. Those on the waiting list don't dare complain.

When Wen Liangce spoke of Xie Jin's deeds, his tone was filled with pride.

Su Yan thought to herself that Wen Liangce must be extremely outstanding to be able to become Xie Jin's assistant.

"If you stay by my side, won't my senior brother be without an assistant?"

"You don't need to worry about that. We have a medical team, and the team members all know the professor's habits. Losing me won't make any difference."

Actually, Wen Liangce was a little depressed.

Why did the professor specifically assign him to supervise Su Yan's acupuncture treatment when there were so many people on the team?

He could have been much more helpful if he had stayed with the professor.

However, judging from the professor's concern for Su Yan's health, it seems that Su Yan's physical condition is severely damaged, but it is not obvious on the surface.

Otherwise, the professor wouldn't have rushed over so quickly after finishing surgery, upon hearing that Su Yan hadn't received acupuncture, and then given him a good scolding.

An hour later.

After Wen Liangce finished removing the acupuncture needles from Su Yan, Feng Caixia said, "Comrade Wen, it's getting late. Why don't you make do in the next room for the night? The three of us girls will share one room."

"How can that be?" Wen Liangce quickly said, "No need to trouble yourself. I'll find a hotel nearby to sleep, and I'll come over tomorrow morning to help Miss Su with acupuncture."

"Okay, we've already made your bed. We're all family here, no need to be so formal."

Hearing Feng Caixia say this, Wen Liangce had no choice but to agree, "Then I'll trouble you."

...

at the same time.

VIP ward at Yuexiu District First Hospital.

He Xiuyun lay on the bed, the wound on her thigh bleeding profusely, soaking most of the bed sheet.

Xie Jin immediately took out his acupuncture kit and applied it to his acupoints.

After a few minutes, the rate of bleeding from the wound gradually decreased.

"What exactly happened?" Xie Jin asked while tending to his wound.

Wu Feifan also had several cuts on his body, but they were all minor scratches.

He stood at the door, head bowed, and said, "It was Third Master. He bribed Tiezi. We were in the same car at the time. Tiezi was sitting next to Sixth Master when he suddenly attacked. Luckily, Sixth Master reacted quickly, otherwise he would have been killed."

Although he reacted quickly, Tiezi's stab still hit Sixth Master's femoral artery, which is why the wound bled so badly.

Tiezi was one of Sixth Master's men, and someone he trusted quite a bit.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be qualified to ride in the same car as Sixth Master.

"Tiezi has always been loyal, so why was he bribed?"

"Tiezi's father owed more than a million yuan in gambling debts and was kidnapped by the casino. If he couldn't pay back the money within three days, his hands and feet would be crippled. Tiezi is a very filial son, so he agreed to Third Master's request."

Wu Feifan gritted his teeth and said, "He's a complete idiot. If he had just asked Sixth Master for money, Sixth Master would definitely have lent it to him."

Tiezi didn't really want to betray Sixth Master, so when he was interrogated, he immediately confessed and cried his eyes out.

Xie Jin calmly said, "Even if it's not sincere, we still can't use this person."

Once someone does it once, who can guarantee they won't do it again?

Human nature is too complex.

He glanced at Sixth Master, "What are you planning to do?"

He Xiuyun took a deep breath. "Just let him leave Guangzhou."

Tiezi was quite skilled; if he really wanted to kill him, he should have stabbed him in the neck with the first blow, but he didn't.

Even so, he didn't want to go to extremes.

Xie Jin clicked his tongue lightly, "You're just not ruthless enough. In the end, you'll only hurt yourself."

If he were the one being betrayed, he wouldn't show any mercy, regardless of whether the other party was sincere or not.

He Xiuyun remained silent.

"And what about Third Master? What are you going to do about him?"

Wu Feifan spoke first: "Sixth Master handed over Third Master's criminal information to the police station. Third Master has been arrested and will likely be sentenced to death."

Third Master has done many dirty deeds; any one of them would be a capital offense.

Besides, he did more than one thing; that's enough to make him die eight hundred times over.

Xie Jin shook his head, "Your Sixth Master is still too soft-hearted."

He Xiuyun gritted her teeth, "Are you ever going to stop? You talk too much nonsense!"

"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Xie Jin said angrily, "I left my junior sister to come and treat your wounds, and you still complain that I talk too much? You deserved to be stabbed like that!"

He Xiuyun closed her eyes, too lazy to argue with him.
