"You have such great influence! Doctor Xue, you must be here to see us, right?" Li Li said excitedly as she went to greet him, "Doctor Xue!"
Xue Changchun ignored Li Li and found Ye Xingchen, handing him the box: "Young friend Ye, this is a golden needle passed down from my ancestors. I am now giving it to you."
"Old Master Xue's gold needles are made of Xuanjin gold and have been handled by generations of national medical masters, making them extremely spiritual. This thing is too precious, I can't accept it." Ye Xingchen was stunned.
“The items are just right, and they are also for treating illnesses and saving lives. They will be of greater use in your hands, so please be sure to accept them,” Xue Changchun said sincerely.
"Alright, I'll accept this. I owe Elder Xue a favor. If Elder Xue needs anything in the future, please feel free to ask." Ye Xingchen thought for a moment and then accepted it.
"Young friend, you're too kind. Please come to my place sometime; I'd like to learn some medical skills from you," Old Master Xue said with a smile.
"Okay." Ye Xingchen nodded.
Just then, a Mercedes-Benz G-Class pulled up, and Ning Xin called out from the driver's seat, "Brother Ye, let's go."
Ye Xingchen said goodbye to Old Xue, then glanced back at Li Li and suddenly smiled: "Li Li, now that we've known each other, let me give you a few words of advice."
"Your wealth palace on your face is dull and lifeless, your eyes are unfocused and your eyebrows are messy. This indicates that you will lose money due to encountering a villain. You know what kind of person Zhou An is. Be careful, or you will be swindled out of everything."
"You're talking nonsense, you surnamed Ye! How dare you curse me?" Li Li was furious, but Ye Xingchen had already left.
However, her expression was very unpleasant.
What incredible luck Ye Xingchen has! He gets to dine at Tianhai Banquet, the world-renowned medical king Xue Changchun treats him so politely, and he even gets picked up by a Mercedes-Benz G-Class?
Are these people blind and have mistaken me for someone else?
However, Li Li didn't have time to think much and ran up to Old Xue: "Old Xue, I am Li Xing's daughter. My father has already made an appointment with you to see a doctor."
"Li Xing? An appointment?" Old Master Xue was slightly taken aback, then shook his head and said, "I have been focusing on studying medicine these past few years and no longer make house calls easily. If you need to see a doctor, please go to the Xue family clinic. I'm sorry."
"This..." Li Li's face turned pale. She quickly realized that Zhou An was probably just bragging.
"Mr. Xue, we've admired you for a long time, please help us." Zhou An was a little embarrassed, but he brazenly stepped forward: "My girlfriend's father is very ill, please help us."
"Alright, did you bring his medical records?" Doctor Xue was a kind-hearted man; since he had encountered this situation, he wouldn't just stand by and do nothing.
"I've got them, I've got them." Li Li quickly took out some test results and lab reports.
Old Xue was an expert in traditional Chinese medicine, but he also understood the test results. He glanced at some of the results briefly, then frowned.
"Mr. Xue, what about my father's illness?" Li Li asked tentatively.
"Judging from the examination results, your father's tuberculosis has spread to his lungs, which Western medicine calls pulmonary tuberculosis. Moreover, it has reached a very serious stage, and there is nothing I can do about it," said Mr. Xue.
"Old Master Xue, please think of something! You're the King of Healers!" Li Li panicked.
“I really can’t cure it, but that young friend Ye Xingchen from earlier definitely has a way. You should go find him.” Old Xue handed the results back to Li Li, then turned and left.
"Ye Xingchen? He only studied medicine for a few years and has never been a doctor. How could he possibly cure him?" Li Li was dumbfounded.
"Lili, Xue Changchun is getting old, and he seems to be senile. Humph, the King of Medicine? I don't think he's worthy of the title. I'll find some experts later. Don't worry, your dad's illness will be fine," Zhou An said dismissively.
“Yes, saying Ye Xingchen can cure it? That’s nonsense. I know what Ye Xingchen is capable of.” Li Li then agreed that Zhou An’s words made sense.
"Let's start preparing for the engagement. With Fifth Master's help, we can cripple Ye Xingchen in public and no one will dare to say a word," Zhou An sneered.
"Yes, we can't let him get away with this," Li Li said through gritted teeth. She harbored prejudice against Ye Xingchen and had no idea that Ye Xingchen had undergone such a dramatic change.
“Lili, it’s time to prepare for your cosmetic surgery. I’ll use my connections to help you with the process, but the initial investment is too large, and I don’t have enough cash flow, so you’ll have to invest some money first.” Zhou An put his arm around her waist.
"Okay, I'll give you all the money I raised before..."
Li Li left arm in arm with Zhou An, looking forward to a happy future together.
"Brother Ye, thank you so much for today. Otherwise, I really don't know how long my old man could have held on." Ning Xin thanked Ye Xingchen as he drove.
"I owe Miss Ning a favor, so consider this matter as repaying that favor." Ye Xingchen paused, then asked, "What's your relationship with her?"
“Our relationship is a bit complicated. She’s my sister, but we share the same father but different mothers.” Ning Xin scratched his head and said somewhat embarrassedly, “Because her mother came from a poor background, my grandfather never really liked her mother.”
"When she was seven years old, her mother died of illness, so she left home and lived with her mother's family."
"I see." Ye Xingchen nodded thoughtfully.
“My grandfather used to be a high-ranking official, and her maternal grandfather was from a powerful sect, so you know what I mean,” Ning Xin said.
"Zhongmen?" Ye Xingchen was surprised. Zhongmen was one of the three major gangs in the world, on par with Hongmen and Qingbang.
Its history can be traced back to the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China. Its organizers were righteous and chivalrous, burning down opium dens, killing traitors, and later even joining the War of Resistance against Japan.
Later, due to various reasons, the Zhongmen headquarters moved overseas, but Zhongmen disciples are all over the world, claiming to have 100,000 followers.
“Yes, her maternal grandfather was the leader of the Zhongmen’s ‘Hall of Loyalty and Righteousness’ when he was alive. Her mother inherited everything from her grandfather. Now she is a descendant of the Zhongmen and has a group of followers,” Ning Jin explained.
"Understood." Ye Xingchen nodded. The Ning family was considered quite prominent in Tianhai. Ning Xin's uncle was the top official in Tianhai City, and his father was the owner of Jianning Real Estate, a well-known local developer. They were definitely second-generation rich kids.
He glanced at Ning Xin: "Do you usually like dealing in antiques?"
"Yeah, Brother Ye, you know about this too?" Ning Xin was delighted. He loved collecting antiques and curios and was extremely excited when this topic came up.
"You know a little bit. Have you recently bought anything you like?" Ye Xingchen asked again.
"Brother, you're amazing." Ning Xin reached into his neck and pulled out a piece of jade: "Look at this blood jade, what do you think? Not bad, right? It belonged to a concubine from the Qing Dynasty, and I bought it for five million."
"After acquiring this jade, have you felt listless, had nightmares at night, woke up in a cold sweat, and felt sore all over your body?"
"More importantly, have you noticed a sharp decline in male virility?" Ye Xingchen glanced at him; the moment he saw this guy, he knew there was something wrong with him.
His face was pale, his eyes were sunken, and he looked like a chain smoker; there was definitely something wrong with him.
Ning Xin slammed on the gas, the car braked suddenly, and he stared at Ye Xingchen in disbelief: "It really is! Brother Ye, what happened to me?"
"Antiques and jade artifacts are also categorized, especially jade, which involves a lot of knowledge. High-quality jade is good for health, but funerary objects from tombs are generally associated with yin energy. Would you dare to wear it close to your body? Aren't you afraid of being killed by the yin energy?"
