Lin Yu's words made the Lan family members all laugh out loud.
Who would lend me ten years of lifespan?
How many decades does a person live in total? To borrow ten years at once, isn't that ridiculous?
Moreover, Lan Yingquan and the other second-generation members of the Lan family are almost sixty years old. If ten years of their lifespan are taken away, won't they just die instantly?
Now, none of the Lan family members, who had been chattering away just moments before, dared to utter a sound!
Lan Yingquan, however, glared at Lan Qi and shouted, "Lan Qi, your grandfather's condition is all your fault. In my opinion, this lifespan should be paid off by you!"
Lan Qi shuddered in fright and immediately protested, "How can this be my responsibility? Everyone asked me to give Grandpa the acupuncture. If anyone is to be held responsible, it's everyone else. Why should I have my lifespan shortened?"
Lan Yingze quickly added, "That's right, brother! This isn't my son's fault at all! How can you, as his uncle, say such a thing!"
Zhao Meili said with a dissatisfied look, "Lan Qi is doing this out of kindness to treat his grandfather. He even spent a million to learn acupuncture! Besides, he is the eldest grandson of the Lan family and has the important responsibility of carrying on the family line. He is very precious. Even if someone has to be sacrificed, it should be your daughter!"
"Bullshit! What nonsense are you spouting? Your son caused this trouble, why should my daughter clean up his mess? If you keep talking nonsense, believe me, I'll tear your stinking mouth apart!" Lan Yingquan immediately tried to attack.
"Big brother, you've gone too far! Don't think that just because you're the eldest I have to give in to you!" Lan Yingze grabbed a stool. Now that the old man was dying and the family was about to split up, he didn't care about brotherhood anymore.
Lan Yingquan, who already has a fiery temper, was completely enraged!
"You dare to lay a hand on me? You've gone too far!"
"Dad! That's enough!"
Just as the two brothers were about to start fighting, Lan Ling suddenly shouted out.
Lan Ling gritted her teeth and said, "If you're going to shorten my lifespan, then shorten mine! It's just ten years, I'm still young, it won't make a difference!"
"Daughter, you?" Lan Yingquan was taken aback, and immediately showed a pained expression.
Lan Ling said softly, "Grandpa has doted on me since I was a child and entrusted me with important responsibilities. As his granddaughter, it is only right that I shorten my lifespan for him!"
As she spoke, she looked at Lin Yu and said, "Dr. Lin, why don't you shorten my lifespan instead!"
"No, you can't harm my daughter! If you must harm her, then harm my lifespan!" Lan Yingquan immediately spoke up. He took a deep breath and said, "As the eldest son of the family, I have an inescapable responsibility!"
Lan Ling's eyes trembled, "Dad, you..."
Lan Yingquan shook his head and said, "Your grandfather is my father. This is my responsibility, and it has nothing to do with you!"
"Dr. Lin, please do whatever you need to do! I just want to save my father. Our Lan family cannot live without our patriarch!" Lan Yingquan said earnestly.
Lin Yu showed an appreciative expression and nodded to himself.
He finally understood who Lan Ling resembled in terms of character; like father, like daughter, both father and daughter were people who valued loyalty and righteousness.
Lin Yu smiled and said, "Let's use Lan Ling's instead. But don't worry, I can actually find a way to make up for this lifespan later!"
Everyone was stunned upon hearing this.
Damn it, why didn't you say so sooner!
The Lan Yingze family looked extremely grim. If they had known it would turn out like this, they would have all been vying to shorten the old man's lifespan!
If the old man wakes up and knows about this, he will surely reward them handsomely.
Now look what's happened!
"Hmph! Listen to his nonsense, do you really think he can cure Grandpa?" Lan Qi muttered sourly.
Lin Yu ignored her and grabbed Lan Ling's arm on the spot. He made a cut on her fair wrist, and a trickle of bright red blood immediately appeared.
Everyone was stunned.
That's right, the blood did indeed float out. Even Newton would have to shake his head if he saw it. That apple he smashed back then was a complete waste!
After the blood trickled out, Lan Ling's face turned pale and her body swayed. Fortunately, Lan Yingquan quickly supported her.
In fact, this is Lan Ling's essence and blood. Lin Yu drew out so much essence and blood, and it is no exaggeration to say that it would shorten his lifespan by ten years!
Then Lin Yu used silver needles to guide the essence blood toward the old man's chest!
The essence blood fell onto several major acupoints on Lan Shanyue's chest, and disappeared instantly upon contact with his skin.
Immediately afterwards, Lan Shanyue let out a groan and slowly opened his eyes.
Everyone was astonished; they hadn't expected Lin Yu to actually bring the old man back to life!
"Dad, you're awake!"
Lan Yingze rushed over and helped Lan Shanyue up. Zhao Meili, who was standing nearby, immediately said, "Oh, Dad, you're awake! That's wonderful! It seems that Qi'er's acupuncture skills haven't been wasted. Thanks to him, otherwise you might really have gone to the gates of hell this time!"
Everyone was slightly taken aback.
Holy crap!
This woman is so shameless! Does anyone try to glorify themselves like this?
Lan Shanyue snorted and pushed Lan Yingze aside!
He actually knew everything that had just happened.
He was indeed on the verge of death. If his granddaughter hadn't given him a boost of blood, he probably would have actually gone in!
This experience of being brought back from the dead allowed him to see clearly whether his children and grandchildren were human or ghosts.
At this moment, she looked at her granddaughter Lan Ling with a kind expression and beckoned, "Granddaughter, come here!"
Lan Ling was slightly taken aback, then quickly walked over, "Grandpa!"
Lan Shanyue nodded with satisfaction, took his granddaughter's fair little hand, and sighed, "Ling'er, Grandpa didn't love you for nothing! I couldn't speak just now, but I knew in my heart that you and your father had moved and made me very happy! Now I understand that no matter how much wealth I've accumulated in my life, nothing is more important than true feelings!"
Upon hearing this, Lan Qi and his family looked embarrassed.
Isn't praising Lan Yingquan and his daughter tantamount to humiliating them?
At that moment, the faces of the family of three were flushed red, feeling burning hot, and they wished they could find a crack in the ground to crawl into!
Lan Ling smiled and said, "Grandpa, it's good that you're alright. You're the pillar of our family, and our Lan family still needs you!"
"Oh no, this won't work!"
Lan Shanyue waved his hand, "I know my own body. I have a terminal illness, and I'm bound to reach that point eventually!"
Lan Shanyue sighed, a hint of melancholy on his face.
At this moment, Lin Yu spoke up, "Grandpa, don't worry. Because of Lan Ling's essence and blood, your tumor has disappeared. You can live for another ten or eight years without any problem!"
"What?!" Everyone looked surprised.
Even Lan Shanyue himself found it unbelievable!
I have late-stage liver cancer, how could I possibly get better so easily?
"Quickly, call the family doctor over, with all the equipment!" Lan Yingquan hurriedly shouted to the servants.
Soon, the Lan family's doctor arrived with his equipment and examined Lan Shanyue. After the examination, Lan Shanyue was completely dumbfounded.
"A miracle! A miracle! The old man's tumor has actually disappeared!"
