Chapter 749 She Betrayed Me

Cheng Hancang has aged a lot, and he didn't look very well when he just woke up.

But those eyes still looked somewhat bright. He waved when he saw Qiao Xi coming in.

Qiao Xi's eyes turned red and tears immediately fell.

"Master Cheng! You scared me to death. You haven't woken up for such a long time that I was really worried that something was wrong with you." She was afraid that her medical skills were not good enough and she might have made a wrong diagnosis.

But when I take Cheng Han's pulse normally, there is no big problem.

He was badly injured and had a bruise on his brain.

Qiao Xi was worried that he would not be able to wake up at such an old age, but now that he is awake, it means that there is no big problem.

Cheng Han spoke weakly, "Don't cry, I'm awake now, right?"

When he woke up, he found that although his body was not strong, many of his wounds had been treated well.

This is done with care.

Qiao Xi wiped away her tears in a hurry, crying and laughing at the same time.

She is always a child in front of Cheng Han.

"Master Cheng, please lie down. I will give you another acupuncture..." Qiao Xi had many questions in her mind that she wanted him to answer, but when the words came to her lips, she didn't know what to say. She could only open the needle bag and treat him first.

She twisted a long needle and inserted it into an acupuncture point on his hand.

The old man lying obediently on the hospital bed had heavy eyes and said in a hoarse voice: "During the time I was unconscious, a lot of things happened, right?"

Qiao Xi responded softly, and then heard Cheng Han say.

"After I arrived in the capital, I was being watched. I didn't do anything at first. Later, they wanted to kill me, so I had to go into the mountains. But those people were more professional, and I was discovered after wandering around for a while. I had to run as fast as I could. In the end, I slipped and fell down the mountain..."

He thought he was dead.

But I didn't expect that he was still alive.

When he woke up, he could see his little apprentice.

"You even marked me with a safety mark, so I thought you were safe. Why... did you come to the imperial capital?" Qiao Xi asked while getting the injection.

Cheng Han let out a long breath and said, "This is my personal matter."

His usually serious face was now a little more bitter. He looked at Qiao Xi and said, "I have never told you that I have a daughter. I married a country girl and had a daughter, but not long after, the girl left the child to me and ran away."

She despised him as a useless Chinese medicine practitioner who, when he was young, treated villagers for free and sometimes even paid for their medical expenses.

Life is very difficult.

The woman couldn't stand the poverty, so she ran to the wealthy place of Guangshen to look for opportunities.

In that era, many people went out to work, and once they left, there was no news of them again.

Cheng Han sent his daughter to live with relatives and began to pursue traditional Chinese medicine.

Later, his fame grew, but his relationship with his daughter was not close. They were just better than strangers, and he took his daughter to live with him when she became an adult.

Cheng Han told Qiao Xi about the past in a rambling way, "Her name was Cheng Qingnian, and she seldom called me father in front of others. So not many people knew about our father-daughter relationship. Later, I didn't even know that she fell in love with a man."

When Qiao Xi heard him admit that Cheng Qingnian was his daughter, she was still a little shocked.

"What happened next?"

A look of pain flashed across Cheng Han's eyes. "She was obsessed with that man like a demon because he betrayed me, her father. She stole all my years of experience in handwriting and the medical books compiled by my friends and gave them to him. She even wanted to elope with him. She even gave me a diarrhea drug during the competition that year... How could I be on guard against her!"

"We had a big fight and broke up. I returned to Haicheng and she stayed in the imperial capital. But soon, I heard that she had committed suicide. Because the man already had a wife, she couldn't accept that she was a mistress. Since then... there has been no news from her."

Cheng Han also became disheartened and retired.

He felt that Chinese medicine had caused him to lose his wife and daughter, and that the people close to him had left one after another.

"I went to the capital this time because I heard the news that she was alive. As a father, I can never let go of this friendship."

Qiao Xi felt very sad when she heard this. She said, "That man must be Lu Bannong. In the competition 20 or 30 years ago, he stepped on you to get to the top and shined brilliantly."

Lu Bannong is a villain!

No wonder the Lu family's Thirteen Ghost Needles has been fully integrated with the Nine Plum Blossom Needles! And the Shen family's Sparrow Pecking Technique!

Qiao Xi looked at him and said seriously, "Master Cheng, I want to tell you something. Please don't get excited when you hear it."

"You say."

"Cheng Qingnian lives next door to you. I discovered she was your daughter a long time ago. So I tried to bring her back from Lu Bannong for treatment. Her narcolepsy is very serious!"

"What!"

Cheng Han's pupils shrank, "She's next door?"

"right!"

"I...I want to see her." Even though he was respected as a national doctor, he was also a poor father at this moment.

Seeing his somewhat anxious expression, Qiao Xi said, "After the injection, I will help you go over and take a look. I am not sure about the treatment of narcolepsy. It would be better if you were here!"

Cheng Han could only lie on the bed, controlling his temper, feeling that every minute and every second was torture.

Qiao Xi looked at his expression, a little hesitant but still didn't tell him.

Lu Yingxue is Cheng Qingnian's daughter and also his granddaughter!

Lu Yingxue has done so many bad things, but she is actually the granddaughter of traditional Chinese medicine doctor Cheng Han. How ironic.

He will be sad.

I'll tell you more when he's in better shape.

Qiao Xi frowned and said, "Master Cheng, I know about Ayi. He is not dead, and is now the young master of the Zhong family."

"Did you recognize each other?"

Cheng Han knew that this matter might not be kept secret for long, but he did not expect that during the time he was unconscious, everything outside was turned upside down.

"Yes. Same name, similar looks. I was so stupid that I kept denying my guess. In the end, I was sure that he was Yi! I also understood your and his good intentions. You... were all trying to protect me."

Qiao Xi is not someone who doesn't know who is good and who is bad.

Cheng Han nodded and said, "That's good. You don't have to feel guilty for the rest of your life."

Qiao Xi narrowed her eyes and smiled warmly.

She felt like she had forgotten to explain something, so after taking out the needle, she helped Cheng Han to go next door to see Cheng Qingnian.

Cheng Qingnian was emaciated, and he closed his eyes and fell into a coma.

Cheng Han restrained his emotions and examined her pulse with tears in his eyes. Finally, he turned to Qiao Xi and said, "You go and do your work. I want to stay here for a while."

"Can you do this?"

"I've kept this old bone for so long, it's time to loosen it up."

Qiao Xi nodded, hiding the worry in her eyes, and closed the door gently.

She spoke a few words to the bodyguard at the door before going downstairs.

After a long time.

There were earth-shaking shouts coming from the villa!
