That night, the Li family was also far from at peace.
After coming down from the mountain, Boss Li personally fed the holy water to the old master of the Li family.
Then the old man perked up at a speed visible to the naked eye.
His cloudy eyes have become much clearer, and he no longer speaks incoherently.
Mr. Li was overjoyed, and Li Shun and Li Jie also found it amazing.
Li Shun, who initially thought that spending one million was a waste, now had to admit that he was probably wrong. It turns out that the world is truly full of wonders.
In fact, after he saw the four real guardian beasts on the mountain, he began to believe the story of the holy water to some extent.
Now that the old man's spirits have truly improved, he has completely believed in the effects of the holy water.
I was amazed at how magical this place truly was.
He looked at Wang Shiliang with pity, "Dr. Wang, are you going to stay in this village and become a doctor?"
Wang Shiliang looked displeased and was very resentful.
"How is that possible? A mere bottle of water could make Old Li so healthy? Could it be a final burst of energy before his death?"
Mr. Li was furious. "You, Wang Shiliang, your medical skills are terrible. I've had you treating him for years and you still couldn't cure him. Now that my grandfather has recovered after drinking the holy water, you're cursing him! You quack!"
Wang Shiliang realized he had misspoke and quickly bowed in apology, "I'm sorry, boss, that's not what I meant. I wouldn't dare curse the old man; I just find it unbelievable."
Boss Li sneered, "Hmph, your medical skills are poor and your thinking is narrow. I think you are indeed more suited to staying in this village and broadening your horizons."
Does this mean the Li family doesn't want him?
The fact that the holy water is effective does not prove that his medical skills are poor.
Wang Shiliang was anxious. How could he not want him? He earned so much money in a year with the Li family. He hadn't earned as much in ten years in the village as he did in a month with the Li family.
He looked at Li Shun and said, "Young Master, please help me. Let me stay by Old Master Li's side. I will definitely take good care of Old Master Li's health in the future."
Li Shun was in a dilemma. He didn't dare to go against his father, but the bet between Wang Shiliang and Lu Yuan was somewhat related to him.
After all, it was under his instruction that they dared to provoke Lu Yuan.
After thinking for a moment, he still spoke up for him, "Dad, Dr. Wang has worked hard these past few years, even if he hasn't made any great contributions. Why don't we keep him? Grandpa is getting old. Even if his health has improved now, it would be more reassuring to have a doctor by his side."
Mr. Li glanced at him sideways and said, "Hmph, there are so many good doctors in Hong Kong, are you afraid you won't find a doctor to take care of your great-grandfather?"
Then he said sternly, "I can ignore the bet with Boss Lu, but don't even think about staying in our house anymore."
Seeing that his father was serious, Li Shun didn't dare to say anything more and could only give Wang Shiliang a look that said, "Good luck to you."
Wang Shiliang looked ashen-faced. If he couldn't stay with the Li family, even if he returned to Hong Kong, he was afraid no one would hire him as a family doctor again.
Those big hospitals wouldn't hire him either, so he could only go to small clinics, and his future looked bleak.
No, no, he couldn't let himself get into that situation. He had to find a way to get Boss Li to agree to let him stay.
Is there any other way?
Li Shun couldn't make the decision, and Old Li couldn't be relied on either. The family doctor had long since stopped wanting care, feeling it was useless.
Li Jie and Boss Li had absolutely no connection.
After much deliberation, Wang Shiliang decided that he should start with Lu Yuan.
Persuading the other party to void the bet would be of no use, and Mr. Li would not rehire him because of it.
Only by proving that the holy water was useless and that his claim of a final burst of energy before death was true could Boss Li possibly shift his anger to Lu Yuan, and only then could Lu Yuan regain Boss Li's trust and remain in the Li family.
Thinking this, a hint of malice flashed in her eyes as she looked at Old Li.
He stopped pleading and silently stepped aside.
Mr. Li was too lazy to pay him any more attention and took Mr. Li back to his room.
Seeing that the atmosphere was not good, Li Jie and Li Shun went back to their respective rooms.
Only Wang Shiliang didn't move. He stared intently at the bottle that had contained holy water. Could there really be such a magical thing in this world?
If there's something so miraculous, what's the point of having doctors? Just drink this holy water when you're sick, and you'll be cured.
It looks just like regular water, but the effect seems to be quite good.
Despite his poor physical condition, Old Li was revitalized by this small bottle of holy water.
Curious, he picked up the empty bottle and smelled it again and again. He wondered if Lu Yuan was cheating, because this wasn't holy water at all, but a medicine specifically for the old man's body.
But he couldn't smell anything. A faint, almost imperceptible wisp of something entered his nostrils and body, making him feel exceptionally comfortable.
It's just like the feeling of smelling ginseng and lingzhi.
But the bottle didn't smell of any medicine, so it was clearly not a medicine.
Since nothing wrong can be found, then don't blame him for being unjust.
He took the bottle back to his room, and about ten minutes later returned to the living room and put the bottle back in its original place.
He checked carefully to make sure he had put it back in the right place before tiptoeing back to his room.
The bodyguard hidden at the stairwell frowned slightly when he saw that the man seemed very suspicious.
Not realizing there was anything wrong, they didn't pay much attention to it.
The next day.
Lu Yuan had just finished breakfast and was about to leave when the phone rang at home.
"Boss, come quick, Old Li is dying."
The person making the call was a staff member who stayed behind to take care of the Li family.
"What? I'm coming right away!"
Lu Yuan hung up the phone and rushed out the door.
Wen Muxue asked, "What happened?"
"Old Li is dying, I'm going to go and see him."
