He had been too lazy to respond to Wang Zhian's advice, simply because he already had a better way to protect his heart meridian.
Xie Li's Sacred Heart Fruits were enough to protect him for ten years, so he didn't care about Xie Ziyuan's charity of five years.
It's not that Grandpa Xie's thinking is extreme; it's just that Xie Ziyuan has been very considerate, sensible, and generous since she was a child, always thinking of others. If she truly cared about him, she would have made a special trip back from the capital to see him, instead of asking him, a seriously ill person, to travel thousands of miles to the capital just because of a phone call.
"Don't feel pressured. There's plenty of time. Grandpa still has about ten years to live. We'll find a solution eventually."
Grandpa Xie continued talking to himself, with a touch of arrogance.
He was already overjoyed to have regained more than ten years of his life; he didn't ask for anything more.
Just then, Xie Li released his grip, and Old Master Xie asked in surprise, "You've already finished taking my pulse?"
Xie Li moved pretty fast; only a few minutes have passed...
Xie Li gave a soft "hmm," her brows furrowing slightly.
Grandpa Xie quickly said, "It's alright, it's alright. If you can't diagnose it, you can't diagnose it. It's not shameful. Even I can't diagnose what kind of poison it is..."
He feared that his granddaughter, who had finally managed to show filial piety, would suffer a blow to her self-confidence if she found herself powerless to do so.
Xie Li came to his senses. "I don't know what this poison is called, but I can figure out how it attacks the internal organs and nerves..."
Upon hearing this, Pharmacist Chen's eyes showed a hint of disappointment.
He couldn't explain why he had such high expectations for Xie Li.
But upon closer reflection, even if Xie Li is extremely talented and self-taught, his knowledge is still limited to books and lacks practical application. It's normal that he couldn't make a diagnosis.
Before she could even process what was happening, Xie Li continued, "...The solution isn't difficult, it's just a bit troublesome..."
Pharmacist Chen was stunned. "The solution isn't difficult?" He suddenly looked up, his eyes blazing with hope. "You mean, you have a solution?"
Xie Li: "..."
She asked tentatively, "So, you didn't know the solution, which is why Grandpa's condition got so serious?"
She was just wondering why the toxins had already invaded her heart and entered the terminal stage.
So these people really don't know the solution?
Xie Li thought for a moment, then felt relieved. Perhaps all humans have their own blind spots in knowledge. Not to mention Pharmacist Chen, his own medical skills could never be better than those of Old Master Xie.
Everything she knows was taught to her word by word by Grandpa Xie.
Although Grandpa Xie always teased her back then, saying that the content was obscure and difficult to understand, and that he himself didn't understand much of it, he made her memorize it so that she could become proficient through practice.
But after decades of dedicated research, it's impossible for someone else to be inferior to her.
So she earnestly asked Grandpa Xie for his opinion, "Then, do you agree to let me help you detoxify?"
Grandpa Xie disagreed, so Xie Li immediately wrote down a list of medicinal herbs and asked Pharmacist Chen to prepare them as soon as possible so that she could concoct the medicine.
Two of the medicinal herbs are a bit troublesome. The TCM base doesn't have them, so we have to contact the capital. It will probably take a few more days to get the herbs.
After Pharmacist Chen went out to make the arrangements, Xie Li took out his phone and glanced at it. There were already more than ten missed calls.
Calls came from Ding Huizhu, from Butler Wu, and from Aunt Zhang.
Just as I was about to call Butler Wu back, another call came in; it was from Ding Huizhu.
"Hello, I'm at..." Xie Li answered the phone, just about to explain.
