"Why am I here? Shouldn't I ask you?" Xie Xihe smiled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes. He said, "Didn't you ask the Zhong family to ask me to come here?"
When have we looked for you? We don’t even know you!
The Luo family father and son subconsciously wanted to refute, but when the words came to their lips, they suddenly paused.
Luo Ruiyang stopped his son, took a step forward and looked at Xie Xihe carefully. When he saw her incredibly beautiful face, he finally reacted.
"You are Xie Xihe! The little girl of old man Xie!" Luo Ruiyang said in disbelief.
Xie Xihe's eyebrows were indifferent: "In terms of age, my father is indeed two years older than Master Luo, but if we only look at appearance, anyone would think that my father, Master Luo, is more than ten years younger."
"So, the term 'old man' might be more appropriate for Patriarch Luo to refer to himself."
Luo Ruiyang: “!!!”
He was so angry that all his fat was shaking, but he couldn't say anything to refute for a long time.
It’s not that I don’t want to refute it, but I really can’t refute it!
When Xie Bowen was young, he was a prominent nobleman in Kyoto. Although he is old now, his charm has not diminished at all.
The evaluation of "elegant and refined, with a benevolent heart of a doctor" is not only a praise for his medical skills, but also an affirmation of his external conditions!
If it comes to a comparison of medical skills, he might be able to barely compete with the other party, but if it comes to a comparison of appearance, he will be directly trampled underfoot!
The head of the Zhong family, who was standing by, couldn't help but twitch his lips when he saw Luo Ruiyang, who was so angry that he vomited blood but couldn't say a word to refute.
Sure enough, all the talk about being quiet, well-behaved and taciturn was fake.
The daughter of Mr. Xie would be fine if she didn't say anything, but once she did, she would absolutely make people so angry that they would die!
But he didn't know why, he was obviously very angry when it happened to him before, but now seeing Luo Ruiyang so angry, he actually felt a little secretly happy?
Cough cough cough, it’s immoral, immoral.
This doesn't fit in with the Zhong family's tradition at all. No, we need to reflect on this.
So he quickly went up to smooth things over and said, "Hasn't Patriarch Luo been asking where that elixir came from? Look, it was given to me by Miss Xie. Now that she's here, feel free to ask any questions you have."
He glanced at his daughter lying on the bed, her face pale, and couldn't help but feel anxious: "But my daughter's condition is not optimistic. I hope you can discuss and come up with a result as soon as possible."
Only then did Luo Ruiyang think of the important matter.
His eyes rolled and he immediately said, "Master Zhong is right. Nothing is more important than curing the disease and saving lives. The most urgent task now is to find out the cause of Miss Zhong's coma and find a treatment plan."
After he finished speaking, he looked towards Xie Xihe, straightened his expression and said, "Miss Xie should have known by now that Miss Zhong fell into a coma immediately after taking the pill you gave her. Over the past three days, I have tried countless ways to revive her but have been unable to do so. If this continues, she may never wake up."
After he finished speaking, he looked towards Xie Xihe, hoping that he would take the initiative to express his opinion. However, no matter how many times he looked at him, the other party still did not react. Finally, he said to him nonchalantly: "So?"
Luo Ruiyang felt a pang of pain in his heart, but he could only continue speaking: "Mr. Xie...Mr. Xie is a kind-hearted doctor with a great reputation. He has never had any accidents in his many years of practice. So I think Miss Xie would not want to see her father lose his integrity in his later years, right?"
Xie Xihe: "My father's medical skills and character are judged by the patients he has treated, not by Patriarch Luo's words that he has lost his integrity in his later years."
"It's Patriarch Luo." She stared at Luo Ruiyang's eyebrows and said slowly, "The black spot on your forehead means disaster is imminent. You should be more careful."
Luo Ruiyang's expression changed, and he could no longer maintain his feigned politeness. He said in a cold voice, "When Patriarch Zhong fed Miss Zhong the elixir, there were more than just us father and son present."
"Master Bai, Young Master Bai, and several elders of the Zhong family were all present at the scene. They all saw with their own eyes that Miss Zhong fell unconscious again after taking Mr. Xie's elixir. You can't deny this with just a few words!"
Xie Xihe: "What about before giving her the medicine? What was Miss Zhong's condition like?"
Luo Ruiyang's eyes flashed, and he said quickly: "Everyone saw it before I gave her the medicine. The Zhong family invited me to come and treat Miss Zhong. After I performed two sets of acupuncture, she showed signs of movement and almost woke up."
Xie Xihe was very straightforward. He pulled out two pieces of paper and said, "Write down the two needle techniques you practice."
Luo Ruiyang almost wanted to take the paper and pen, but he reacted the next moment: "Now you are saying that your father's elixir caused Miss Zhong to fall into a coma. You should hand over the recipe for that elixir. Why should I write down my acupuncture method?!"
Xie Xihe looked at him calmly, "The difference between your acupuncture time and Patriarch Zhong's medicine feeding time is no more than five minutes. Since you can doubt my medicine, then by the same logic, can't I also doubt that there is something wrong with your acupuncture technique?"
She glanced at Zhong Yuxiu and pointed out the key point: "If I remember correctly, when Miss Zhong was critically ill, the Zhong family always went to Patriarch Luo first. After Patriarch Luo said that he was powerless to save her, they went back to my father."
"For so many years, Patriarch Luo has been powerless to treat Miss Zhong's illness. Now she is at the end of her life, yet you, with your extraordinary medical skills, have saved her with just two acupuncture techniques?"
"Then you are really amazing."
With every word Xie Xihe spoke, Luo Ruiyang's face turned redder. By the time she finished speaking, his face was almost as red as a cooked pig's head.
Facing the suspicious looks from everyone, his expression became even uglier.
Suddenly, his face darkened as he looked towards Patriarch Zhong and said coldly, "So Patriarch Zhong would rather believe a little girl than me?"
"Alright then, there's no need to treat this disease. Master Zhong, please seek help from someone else!"
He glanced at Xie Xihe and sneered even more: "I think this Miss Xie is quite good. She speaks very logically. Maybe her medical attainments have surpassed my master. Mr. Xie has a successor!"
As he said this, he pretended to leave.
I thought that since he had said so much, the head of the Zhong family would definitely reach out to stop him, but he didn't react even when he almost reached the door.
It was as if they didn't care whether he stayed or left, and he was the only one performing a solo show from beginning to end.
Luo Ruiyang's face looked extremely ugly.
Just as the person was about to step out of the door and Patriarch Bai and others were almost unable to hold back and call for help, Patriarch Zhong finally responded.
Still using his usual gentle voice, he said calmly, "Master Luo, please stay."
Luo Ruiyang was slightly happy.
