Chapter 228 Showing Mr. Yan’s Face
After entering the study, Bai Yangfan glanced around calmly, then sat down at the invitation of the two old men and put down the needle bag in his hand.
Old Master Yan looked at her with interest: "Are you Zhu Houde's granddaughter?"
"yes!"
Bai Yangfan's face still had no expression, his tone was not enthusiastic, and he was very frugal with his words.
"I heard that you cook delicious dishes?" Old Master Yan was really tempted by the dishes that Zhu Houde mentioned that day, and couldn't help but ask.
As people age, their tastes become more sophisticated, and they always want to eat something different and novel. Zhu Houde was a good friend of his, and the two of them often got together to discuss food, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and the young talents of Kyoto.
Of course, sometimes we also discuss national conditions and policies.
"good."
Bai Yangfan didn't want to talk much and tried to be perfunctory as much as possible.
Old Master Yan didn't notice anything and asked excitedly, "I heard you're helping Old Zhu solve cases? And you're a specially hired member of their team?"
"yes!"
After taking a sip of the water at hand, Bai Yangfan's expression remained cold and unchanged.
Even this didn't diminish Old Master Yan's interest in her: "You also know medicine? Did you get admitted to Kyoto Medical University?"
"yes!"
Putting down the cup, Bai Yangfan frowned slightly, feeling that Zhu Houde had simply cheated her. Why did he tell everyone everything about her?
Originally, Mr. Yan wanted to ask more, but his wife was afraid that he had offended the girl, as his grandson had already offended her.
If it weren't for Zhu Houde's face, people might not have come to give the old man a chance.
"Hey! Stop asking questions, old man! Just let Xiaobai show you your face!"
"Why are you in such a hurry? I'm just curious about this child." Old Master Yan smiled cheerfully and turned to explain to Bai Yangfan, "I'm old now, and it's rare for me to see such an outstanding girl. I just want to ask a few more questions. Do you mind?"
"No problem."
Bai Yangfan: “…” How come you are such a talkative old man? I misjudged you. I thought the old men in big families were all more old-fashioned and serious. Who would be as long-winded as you?
I don't mind, but I don't want to keep answering your boring, verification-like questions. Can we just ask and answer them quickly and get it over with right away?
"You started training your skills when you were very young? How old were you then?" Old Master Yan was really curious about Bai Yangfan's life experience.
He was sure that the child had learned a lot of skills, but he had also suffered hardships and fatigue that ordinary people could hardly imagine.
"Four years old."
She was not lying. In her previous life, she was captured and trained at the age of four. She was trained until she was eight, and then she was thrown into the Amazon jungle.
Five years later, he was found and brought back to the organization, where he became a killer until his death.
She completed countless tasks, several of which were simply impossible to complete, but she completed them. Even though Yan Zhenqing kept interfering with her in various ways, she still completed the tasks given by the organization and eliminated the target person.
"Who trained you?" Old Master Yan really couldn't imagine what a four-year-old child knew and how he could receive training.
It shows how cruel her family is. A four-year-old girl can't even walk steadily!
"grandmother!"
Lowering his eyes, Bai Yangfan slowly uttered two words.
Seeing this scene, Old Master Yan felt a little sad for Bai Yangfan. He knew that her grandmother had passed away just because she chose a man who didn't like her and refused to attend her wedding.
The wise old lady couldn't bear the blow and fell ill.
The name "Grandma" is a hurdle that the girl cannot overcome. Zhu Houde said that she has not married her man yet and has not forgiven him.
But grandma became ill because of this incident and eventually died. It would be strange if the child was not sad.
Yan Zhenqing and Old Lady Yan didn't know this. Seeing that Old Man Yan didn't ask any further questions, they both felt relieved.
"Child! I actually know everything about you. Your grandmother is a remarkable person. She raised you to be so outstanding." Old Master Yan was afraid that the little girl was unhappy, so he comforted her, "I heard that your medical skills were also taught to you by her, right?"
"yes!"
"Good boy!" Old Master Yan pointed at his face and said, "Look at my face. Is there any hope?"
Lifting his eyes and looking over, Bai Yangfan said, "I can't tell. I'll know after I take your pulse."
The little girl spoke honestly, and Old Man Yan was very happy: "No wonder Zhu Houde accepted you as his granddaughter, he got a great deal. You are a unique child, with the demeanor of a master. Based on my observation, there is a high probability that you can cure my face."
What the old man said was an affirmative sentence, not a question. Bai Yangfan was startled and felt that the old man of the Yan family was really bold.
How could he be so sure that he could cure his face?
Seeing that she was silent, Old Man Yan started talking himself: "You don't know your grandfather Zhu Houde yet. He never exaggerates or praises anyone too much. Even though Lu Jingheng worked under him for so many years, I have never seen him praise him more than once.
He has racked his brains to praise you to the highest heavens. I believe your medical skills must be very advanced, otherwise how could you possibly live up to his appreciation and love for you?
His eyebrows moved imperceptibly several times. Bai Yangfan felt that this Old Man Yan was really not an ordinary person. He put himself in trouble with just a few words.
Zhu Houde praised her out of his love for her, but the old man in front of him used this to flatter her, forcing her to treat him.
Old Master Yan was also a shrewd man. Seeing the expression on Bai Yangfan's face, he immediately guessed what was going on and explained with great earnestness, "Grandpa told you this because I didn't treat you as an outsider, child! If Grandpa had met you earlier, perhaps you would be my Yan family's granddaughter today. It's a pity that we are not destined to be together, but at least you came to Kyoto, and Grandpa got to see you, and that's enough."
Seeing Mr. Yan's expression that showed he felt regret for not seeing her, Bai Yangfan suddenly lost the disgust in his heart and heard the sincerity in the old man's tone.
Maybe she was overthinking it. The old man in front of her didn't have any intention of threatening her like Zhu Houde.
"Thanks! I think we can get started."
Feeling sorry for his pettiness, Bai Yangfan wanted to finish the consultation as soon as possible so as not to stay in the Yan family and listen to Old Man Yan's nagging and chattering.
"Okay!" Old Man Yan obediently stretched out his hand and placed it in front of Bai Yangfan. He said to her with a pleasant face, "Child! Take your time. There's no rush. Grandpa has seen many doctors for his face. It doesn't matter whether it can be cured or not. Don't add to your psychological burden."
Bai Yangfan nodded, said nothing more, and began to carefully take Mr. Yan's pulse.
After finishing one, I switched to another.
After finishing with both hands, I basically had a general idea in my mind.
"How is my grandfather? Can his face be cured?"
