Luo Ruiyang deliberately paused for a few seconds before slowly turning around, still looking displeased. He said in a calm voice, "If Patriarch Zhong wants me to stay and continue treating Miss Zhong, that's fine. But I also said that without knowing the cause, even I wouldn't dare to start treating her carelessly."
"Miss Zhong won't be able to hold on for much longer. I hope Patriarch Zhong can find a way to get the recipe for the elixir as soon as possible so that I can prescribe the right medicine for her condition."
As Luo Ruiyang spoke, he looked up at the head of the Zhong family. When he saw the expression on the head of the Zhong family's face, the rest of his words stopped in his mouth, and an inexplicable uneasiness surged in his heart.
Just like the Zhong family's style, the head of the Zhong family is gentle and polite, and smiles most of the time.
During this period of time, although he was exhausted because of Zhong Yuxiu's illness, he was still gentle and polite when facing people, and rarely brought his personal emotions to others.
But at this moment, there was no expression on his face, and his slightly narrowed eyes revealed a look of scrutiny and strong compulsion.
It makes people suddenly realize clearly that the person in front of them is the head of the Zhong family.
The head of the Zhong family, the first of the four major families in Kyoto!
It’s not a threat that anyone can fool!
Luo Ruiyang's uneasiness grew stronger, and he said with a stiff smile, "What does Patriarch Zhong mean by this?"
Patriarch Zhong lowered his eyes, suppressing the chill in his heart. He said calmly, "Mr. Luo is right. Miss Xie's medical skills are indeed good. If she hadn't helped me back then, I wouldn't be standing here talking to you all right now."
"So," he turned to look at Xie Xihe and said seriously, "I'll leave my daughter's illness to Miss Xie."
Xie Xihe nodded casually: "Do your best."
One of them dared to bring it up, and the other dared to respond, which made Mr. Bai and the others tremble with fear.
Old Master Bai looked at Xie Xihe's overly young face and felt very nervous. He couldn't help but want to step forward to stop him.
But he had just taken a step when he was stopped by Bai Chengxuan behind him.
Bai Chengxuan shook his head at him and lowered his voice to persuade him: "Uncle is my cousin's father. There is no one in the world who cares about my cousin more than my uncle. He won't harm her."
He glanced at Xie Xihe again and lowered his voice, "This Miss Xie doesn't seem to be what the outside world says. Since she dared to agree, she must be confident. Let's just wait and see what happens."
Old Master Bai paused, his eyes changed, and he finally took back his steps.
Luo Ruiyang's expression was so ugly that it could not be described. He just felt that the head of the Zhong family was slapping him in the face in public!
I couldn't help but say, "Okay! Okay! In that case, I'll take my leave. I wish Miss Zhong a speedy recovery!"
Having said that, he turned around again.
But still failed to leave.
This time he did not stop on his own initiative, but was blocked by a row of guards who suddenly appeared at the door.
Patriarch Zhong smiled gently again and said to Luo Ruiyang, "Although I trust Miss Xie, she is still young and lacks experience. I'd like to ask Mr. Luo to stay here and support her."
Although he said so, he didn't mean to invite him to come forward. No one present was stupid, so there was no one who didn't understand.
This was not about asking him to take charge, it was obvious that she believed Xie Xihe's words and thought that Luo Ruiyang's two sets of acupuncture techniques were the reason why Miss Zhong fell into a coma!
Luo Ruiyang and his son's faces turned pale!
Luo Ruiyang is better. He is older and has seen more situations, so he is still relatively calm at the moment.
But Luo Hengming couldn't do that.
He has been following his father to practice medicine since he was a child. Wherever he goes, he is treated respectfully and worshipped by people. When has he ever suffered such injustice?
I immediately wanted to go up and argue.
But he was stopped by Luo Ruiyang.
Luo Hengming frowned: "Dad?"
Luo Ruiyang: "I've been practicing medicine for many years, but this is the first time I've encountered a disease like Miss Zhong's. This is a congenital disease, and there's almost no possibility of a cure."
"If Xie Xihe can really save Miss Zhong and cure her illness, it will be considered a blessing for Miss Zhong. We can just take it as an opportunity to see the world."
But if I can't save him...
A sneer flashed across Luo Ruiyang's eyes as he looked gloomily at Patriarch Zhong and Xie Xihe.
If you want to slap him in the face, then be prepared to be slapped in the face!
Luo Hengming's heart moved, and he almost immediately understood what his father meant, and immediately showed a look of waiting for a good show.
Xie Xihe ignored them and grabbed Zhong Yuxiu's hand again and placed it on her pulse.
The pulse of his hand was so weak that it almost stopped beating. It was sluggish and weak, emitting a heavy deathly aura.
This was the end of the person's chance of survival. Even if it was Xie Xihe from her previous life, with a panacea in hand, she wouldn't be able to guarantee that she could save the person.
But that was her in her previous life. In this life, she is no longer the same...
Ten minutes later, Xie Xihe withdrew his fingertips from Zhong Yuxiu's wrist and flicked his index finger habitually.
After a brief pause, he looked towards Patriarch Zhong and asked calmly, "Do you have any golden needles?"
You have to have it whether you have it or not.
Patriarch Zhong said without hesitation, "Whatever style you want, I'll have someone make one right away."
Xie Xihe: “…”
What can I say?
I can only say that the Zhong family, as the head of the four major families, is indeed wealthy and powerful.
but……
Xie Xihe shook his head: "Time is too tight, it may not be in time. My dad has it. I'll tell him and Patriarch Zhong will send someone to get it..."
Before he could even finish the last word "bar", the Zhong family's housekeeper's voice had already appeared at the door, saying respectfully, "Master, Mr. Xie is here. He's downstairs. Do you want him to be brought in?"
The Zhong family head's eyes suddenly lit up: "Please come in!"
Xie Xihe hadn't expected her father to come over at this time. She had a bad feeling...
really.
As soon as they met, Mr. Xie hit her on the head in a bad mood and said angrily, "You didn't even tell me about such a big thing. Xie Xihe, you are getting more and more capable!"
Xie Xihe: "...it's just okay?"
Mr. Xie: “…”
He repeated to himself three times that this was his own daughter before he suppressed the urge to catch her and beat her up.
He first stepped forward to take a look at Zhong Yuxiu's condition, thought for a moment, then turned to ask Xie Xihe: "How are you going to treat her?"
Xie Xihe said succinctly: "Acupuncture and medicine."
Mr. Xie again: "..."
I couldn't help but press my eyebrows.
He raised his eyelids and looked deeply at Xie Xihe for a long time. Then he took out a booklet from his medicine box and handed it to her, saying, "Page 17. See if you can perform it."
This time it was Xie Xihe's turn to be speechless.
As she took the booklet and flipped it open, she looked at her father through her eyelashes and couldn't help but ask, "How many treasure booklets do you have here?"
Mr. Xie glared at her: "The last one, it's gone!"
Xie Xihe chuckled and turned to page seventeen. After just one glance, he was shocked and looked up at Old Man Xie.
