Hmm? Tang Zhongxin went to see Xiao Qingfeng several times because of Tang Xuan's mother's illness? That doesn't make sense. Last night, Tang Xuan told me herself that she went to beg Tang Zhongxin, but he didn't agree.
"Could Tang Xuan have lied to me last night?" Liu Xiaoyuan wondered, but he felt that was impossible; Tang Xuan had no reason to deceive him about this.
Seeing Liu Xiaoyuan deep in thought, Xiao Qingfeng couldn't help but ask, "Young friend, is there a problem?"
Liu Xiaoyuan shook his head and said, "No, no, let's go in!"
Either way, everything will become clear soon. So instead of speculating here, you might as well go inside.
Since it was daytime, the Tang family's gate was not closed, but someone was guarding it. The guard was an elderly man who did not recognize Liu Xiaoyuan, but was very familiar with Xiao Qingfeng.
Upon seeing Xiao Qingfeng behind Liu Xiaoyuan, the old man immediately ran over with a smile and said, "Dr. Xiao, what brings you here today? Did our family head invite you?"
"By the way, Dr. Xiao, is this young man your new apprentice?" The old man, who was quite talkative, glanced at Liu Xiaoyuan and said.
Xiao Qingfeng quickly shook his head and said, "This is not my young friend. In terms of medical skills, my young friend is still above me, Xiao Qingfeng."
Upon hearing this, the old man naturally did not believe Xiao Qingfeng's words. He glanced at Liu Xiaoyuan and said, "Dr. Xiao, please don't make fun of this old man."
Seeing that the old man didn't believe him, Xiao Qingfeng was about to explain when Liu Xiaoyuan shook his head at him, indicating that he didn't need to explain anymore.
After seeing that Xiao Qingfeng offered no further explanation, the old man became even more convinced that Liu Xiaoyuan was Xiao Qingfeng's apprentice.
Then, the old man immediately ran in to report to Tang Zhongxin that Xiao Qingfeng had arrived. Tang Zhongxin had visited Xiao Qingfeng several times before, requesting that Xiao Qingfeng come to treat his illness, but Xiao Qingfeng had refused each time, which showed how arrogant Xiao Qingfeng was.
Upon receiving a report from the old gatekeeper that Xiao Qingfeng had come to his Tang family home, Tang Zhongxin immediately came out to greet him.
On his way here, Tang Zhongxin wondered what had brought Xiao Qingfeng here today. Was Xiao Qingfeng in a particularly good mood and about to examine his wife?
However, when Xiao Qingfeng saw Liu Xiaoyuan, Tang Zhongxin seemed to understand something. Xiao Qingfeng was probably not blown here by some wind, but summoned by Liu Xiaoyuan.
"Dr. Xiao, Brother Liu! Welcome, both of you!" Tang Zhongxin said with a smile.
From that greeting just now, it's clear that in Tang Zhongxin's mind, Xiao Qingfeng ranks ahead of Liu Xiaoyuan.
Liu Xiaoyuan didn't take this to heart, since he didn't intend to have much interaction with the Tang family anyway. If Tang Xuan hadn't been there, Liu Xiaoyuan wouldn't have come at all.
"Dr. Xiao, may I ask what brings you to our Tang family today?" Tang Zhongxin asked with a smile.
Xiao Qingfeng said, "Young friend, you asked me to come and treat your wife!"
Upon hearing this, Tang Zhongxin said, "Brother Liu, you are so kind. By the way, how did you know my wife is ill?"
Tang Zhongxin felt something was strange. He hadn't told Liu Xiaoyuan about his wife's illness last night, so how did Liu Xiaoyuan find out? And now, he'd brought Xiao Qingfeng over today, making it seem like Liu Xiaoyuan was trying to curry favor with the Tang family.
After hearing Tang Xuan's story last night, Liu Xiaoyuan didn't like Tang Zhongxin as much anymore. When he heard Tang Zhongxin's question, he said indifferently, "Brother Tang, you're too kind. Tang Xuan and I are old classmates after all. Her mother is sick, so I invited Dr. Xiao Qingfeng over. It's nothing, just friendship between classmates!"
Upon hearing this, Tang Zhongxin was taken aback and said, "So it's for Tang Xuan's mother to see a doctor."
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaoyuan thought for a moment and immediately understood the reason. Nominally, Tang Xuan's mother was not Tang Zhongxin's wife; she was just another woman outside the marriage.
Therefore, I, Xiao Qingfeng, and Tang Zhongxin all misunderstood, thinking that it was to treat Tang Zhongxin's wife.
Xiao Qingfeng seemed to understand something as well, and looked at Liu Xiaoyuan, asking, "Young friend, what exactly is going on?"
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "This matter concerns Brother Tang's romantic affairs from back then, so I can't say much about it. If you want to know, Dr. Xiao, please ask Brother Tang to tell you!"
Xiao Qingfeng wasn't the type to gossip, and having heard this, he had basically guessed the gist of it, so he didn't ask any further questions.
When Liu Xiaoyuan saw that Tang Xuan had not come out yet, he took out his phone and called Tang Xuan, saying that he had brought Dr. Xiao Qingfeng with him.
Tang Xuan, on the other end of the phone, was extremely surprised to hear that Liu Xiaoyuan had brought Xiao Qingfeng over.
Hearing Tang Xuan's surprised tone, Liu Xiaoyuan couldn't help but think, is she that surprised? It's just that she invited Xiao Qingfeng over.
Soon, Tang Xuan appeared in front of Liu Xiaoyuan. When Tang Xuan saw Xiao Qingfeng, the excitement on her face was fully revealed.
"Dr. Xiao, it really is you! That's wonderful, Dr. Xiao..." Tang Xuan was so excited that she didn't know what to say. Xiao Qingfeng was known as a miracle doctor. In Tang Xuan's opinion, as long as Xiao Qingfeng took action, her mother's illness could be cured.
Standing to the side, Liu Xiaoyuan was extremely frustrated. He was the real protagonist! However, Liu Xiaoyuan wasn't a petty person and wouldn't storm off in a huff just because Tang Xuan had done something like that.
After the initial excitement, Tang Xuan stood in front of Liu Xiaoyuan, too overwhelmed with emotion to express her joy, only able to repeatedly say thank you.
Liu Xiaoyuan felt embarrassed and could only say, "Tang Xuan, we are classmates, there's no need to be so polite."
Led by Tang Xuan, they arrived at Tang Xuan's mother's room, with Tang Zhongxin following behind.
Tang Xuan lives with her mother in a fairly nice house. It seems Tang Zhongxin is quite decent; he didn't arrange for Tang Xuan and her mother to live in a dark and damp place.
"Mom, Dr. Xiao Qingfeng is here to examine you!" Tang Xuan ran to the bedside as soon as she entered the room and said to her mother.
"Tang Xuan, I know my own body, you don't need to worry about it..." Tang Xuan's mother looked very weak and spoke softly. When she heard Tang Xuan's voice, she tried to sit up, but Tang Xuan helped her to sit on the bed.
"Why are you here!" Tang Xuan's mother's face immediately showed displeasure when she saw Tang Zhongxin following behind, as if she did not want to see Tang Zhongxin.
Tang Zhongxin said somewhat embarrassedly, "I came to see you!"
Tang Xuan's mother said, "Did the sun rise in the west today? You, the dignified head of the Tang family, actually came to see a servant like me. How ridiculous!"
After Tang Xuan's mother finished speaking loudly, she started coughing. Tang Xuan quickly patted her mother's back gently, asking with concern if she was alright.
Tang Zhongxin, standing behind, looked even more embarrassed and was about to explain when Tang Xuan's mother immediately pointed at him, coughing as she said, "You...you get out, I don't want to see you!"
