Ding Li was truly shocked. In the photo he saw in his father's study, was this young Mr. Ye really his father's apprentice? But wasn't he a distant relative of the Ye family?
Besides, who can remain unchanged for ten years?
My father is not even seventy years old, but he has aged too quickly in the last ten years, looking like he is over ninety years old, frail and old.
Xiaoxi has seen many strange phenomena.
"Second Brother, is Old Master Ding your master? He's not doing well, so I came to check on him."
Xiao Xi came over to take Mr. Ding's pulse and inserted silver needles into several important acupoints on his head.
To prevent Mr. Ding from getting too excited when he woke up and saw his second brother, Xiao Xi dissolved half of the pill in tea and gave it to Mr. Ding to drink.
Ding Li stood by, at a loss for what to do. He never expected that the young lady of the Ye family would know traditional Chinese medicine.
However, seeing his father's complexion improve, he felt a great sense of relief.
"Thank you, Miss Ye. For the past 10 years, my father has always been in poor health, and the hospital has been unable to find anything wrong with him."
At this moment, Mr. Ding had fully regained consciousness, and he looked at Ye Zhongnan and his sister.
He actually knew everything in his heart what had just happened.
He nodded gratefully to Xiaoxi, then looked eagerly at Ye Zhongnan, but couldn't bring himself to call out.
"Master!" Ye Zhongnan grabbed Mr. Ding's hand again.
"Zhongnan, it really is you! I didn't see wrong, it really is you!" Mr. Ding was so excited that his eyes turned red.
Thanks to Xiaoxi's herbal tea, Mr. Ding's body was able to withstand such an extreme emotional reaction.
Ye Zhongnan recognized his master and Ding Li; they were indeed his master's son, and they had met before.
However, 10 years is too long for the Ding family, and Ye Zhongnan did not recognize Ding Li for the time being.
Since the two people present were his master and senior brother, he no longer needed to hide anything.
Ye Zhongnan immediately explained why he hadn't changed in ten years.
Mr. Ding was so angry that his beard trembled.
"I knew it! How did Ye Zhongnan's personality change so drastically back then? Ten years ago, on a rainy night, he rushed into my study, said some inexplicable things, and then left."
I still can't remember what he said back then, but ever since then…
Mr. Ding was speechless; he was extremely agitated.
Ding Li offered an explanation for his father.
“My father retired 10 years ago. At the time, people in the industry didn’t understand. He was not yet 60 years old and his culinary skills were at their peak. But my father said that he had no knowledge or skills related to cooking.”
Xiaoxi understood immediately.
"Is it because that fake wants to dominate the market? He erased Uncle Ding's memories of cooking so that Uncle Ding won't be able to train any outstanding apprentices to compete with him?"
Or perhaps he was simply less skilled and stole Uncle Ding's culinary skills to make it his own?
The question that had puzzled Mr. Ding for ten years has finally been answered.
"This is too cruel. The culinary skills I lost over the past 10 years are a deep pain in my heart. Even if I no longer work in the culinary field, they are still a part of my life."
Because Mr. Ding had been suffering from such mental torment, his health deteriorated.
"Uncle Ding, don't worry, maybe I can find a way to solve this," Xiaoxi said with a smile, trying to reassure him.
She first asked Grandpa Ding to slowly recall the events of that year.
Mr. Ding only taught three people in his entire life.
