Chapter 10 She's just a fake charlatan
Soon, the group arrived in the living room.
Liu Ying looked at the two of them and said, "Please sit down, Dr. Zhao is giving Grandpa acupuncture!"
"It's alright, may I go take a look if you don't mind?"
"OK!"
Anyway, Liu Ying no longer had any hope for Dr. Zhao. Every day after he finished acupuncture, her grandfather would see that her complexion had improved a lot, but after a while, it would return to the way it was before, or even worse.
"Third Brother, you don't understand these things, just sit here and wait for me." Gu Laosan, who was about to follow and join in the fun, stopped!
"Okay!" Even if he doesn't go in, his true self can hear his sister's thoughts, and if anything happens to her, he'll rush in.
Inside the room, an elderly man, thin as a rake, lay on the bed.
The doctor, dressed in a white coat, was about fifty years old. He sat by the man's bed, holding his hand as if performing acupuncture. A young man stood beside the man.
Judging from his appearance, he's probably his apprentice or assistant.
The old man lifted his eyelids slightly and saw the group of people who had suddenly entered the bedroom. "Xiao Ying, what are you doing here with strangers?"
"Grandpa, she is a friend of mine, and she came to see you specially."
Dr. Zhao glanced back at Gu Yunxi, who was young and beautiful, but didn't pay her any attention and continued with his work.
Gu Yunxi used special means to show part of the footage, which she had arranged with Liu Ying beforehand outside the door.
[As expected of a wealthy and influential family, they even have Dr. Zhao provide door-to-door service. We have no idea how difficult it is to get an appointment with him at the hospital; in fact, without special channels, he doesn't even offer appointments to outsiders.]
Yes, I once tried to get on his account. It took a lot of effort to connect with his team. Getting his account is really difficult.
With Dr. Zhao, this returnee, around, Old Master Liu will surely recover. I think the host should just enjoy admiring the grand architecture; perhaps this is the closest you've ever been to the Liu family.
[Can this streamer really diagnose illnesses? She looks only seventeen or eighteen; she's probably just an uneducated student.]
Fortune telling? Only a fool would believe that!
[Don't be obsessed with me: I'm putting this out there today, if the streamer can really solve your problem, I'd give you not just one precious daughter, but ten brothers, and I'd even become their biggest fanboy!]
Okay, I've already written it down in my notebook!
Ha! This so-called Dr. Zhao does have some skill, but he's overdrawing his life force.
Gu Yunxi couldn't stand it anymore and was about to speak when Xiao Wu, who was standing to the side, noticed her disdain.
"You're Miss Liu's friend, right? You seem to be hesitant to speak. Do you perhaps know medicine?"
"I don't understand this medical skill, but this doctor's treatment method is problematic."
Zhao Huai, who was holding the silver needles, paused and stopped what he was doing. "Young friend, you actually doubt my treatment method? Then tell me, what's wrong with my treatment method?"
Sensing something amiss inside, Gu Yunlang stood up at the doorway, straining his ears to listen intently to every sound coming from inside.
Gu Yunxi looked at the person lying on the bed. After Dr. Zhao's acupuncture, he seemed to look much better.
"Doctor, you are indeed very clever to know how to prolong Grandpa Liu's life in this way, but your daily acupuncture is only accelerating the loss of his vitality. Do you know that with his body, he is supposed to live to be a hundred years old?"
The old man on the bed turned his head and looked at Gu Yunxi carefully. Why would she say such a thing? She was clearly a child about the same age as his granddaughter. It must have been something she said to comfort him.
Let alone living to be a hundred years old, it's hard to say whether my current body can even last for the next two years. But after receiving acupuncture from Dr. Zhao every day, I feel much more comfortable.
Zhao Huai stared sharply at Gu Wuyou, adjusting his glasses. "Ignorant brat, do you know who I am?"
"Isn't he just Dr. Zhao from the Affiliated Hospital of Jiangcheng Medical University? What's there to be curious about?"
Besides, it seems my fourth brother also works at this hospital, except he's a pediatrician.
"Now that you know my master's identity, why don't you quickly call him Doctor Zhao? Do you know how long the waiting list is for people who want to get an appointment with my master? Some people even rent a place near the hospital for half a year and still can't see him. You are truly fortunate to meet him today."
Gu Yunxi waved her hand: "Keep a low profile. Those are just some so-called reporters hyping things up. I just said that acupuncture can't cure Grandpa Liu's illness."
[Did the streamer notice something? Question.jpg]
No, I don't think so. Although I don't know anything about this, I really saw that person on the bed, barely alive, who definitely needed a doctor's treatment. Only wealthy families like this could afford to have Dr. Zhao come to their homes. For people like us, just as his apprentice said, getting an appointment with him is extremely difficult.
"Are you a doctor? You're so young, yet you spout such nonsense." Wu Jiang felt that ever since this woman entered the room, even the air inside had become unpleasant.
He walked a few steps to Gu Yunxi and looked up at her. Gu Yunxi was 1.7 meters tall, while this man was less than 1.6 meters tall.
"I'm not a doctor, I'm just a fortune teller and feng shui master, just trying to make a living."
"Ha ha!"
Xiao Wu laughed so hard he almost passed out. "Fortune teller, you're a fraud. A young woman like you, only eighteen or nineteen, probably hasn't even been to college. Why do you have to be a fraud? Miss Liu, I don't think this woman is your friend at all, but a fraud."
Master's acupuncture skills are unmatched in Jiangcheng. He is among the top ten in the medical field. You ignorant child, you are so arrogant. Even Master Liu couldn't cure Master, so how could she?
It seems this woman wasn't simply there to see Master Liu, but rather to figure out how to swindle him out of money.
"Wu Jiang, stop fooling around."
Hearing his master's words, he returned to his side and whispered, "Master, she's just a swindler who comes here specifically to cheat people out of money and cause trouble."
"Young man, you said acupuncture was useless for Master Liu. Since you can tell fortunes and read feng shui, do you mean that the way he described his body is in this state is related to superstition?"
Zhao Huai spoke in a harsh tone, trying to scare Gu Yunxi into tears, but she wasn't having any of it.
Taking a few steps forward, Gu Yunxi looked at Master Liu on the bed, closed her eyes, and opened them again, seeing the deathly aura surrounding the bed.
The deathly aura surrounding Master Liu was particularly thick around his head and feet, and his lips were slightly purple, a sign of death.
This so-called doctor was just after money.
"To die peacefully in one's sleep is to start from the head; to die unjustly is to start from the feet. If one's fate is altered by someone's feng shui arrangement, one will die from head to toe."
"Ha! He's just making a big fuss, spouting words I don't understand. Master Liu, don't be fooled by this fake charlatan."
