The problem of internal strength that had troubled his son for more than ten years was finally solved. Now he can properly cultivate ancient martial arts and lead the He family to a higher level. Isn't this a great joy?
He Jingxuan was confused: "Wait, what does this have to do with that Doctor Bai? Hasn't he done anything right?"
Madam He did not understand the meaning behind her son's words.
He Jingxuan said smugly, "It was Xie Li. She fed me a pill. I heard that Doctor Bai wanted to ask her for one, but unfortunately, it was the last one."
He smacked his lips, feeling as if the warm yet powerful medicinal taste still lingered on his tongue.
He had been unconscious, but he was not unaware of his surroundings. He just felt extremely tired, and his body slid heavily into the deeper darkness.
As soon as the pill went down his throat, he felt a sudden clarity in his head, and then the darkness quickly receded, and his limbs and bones began to feel light.
He Jingxuan thought for a moment and then added, "I heard from Xie Li that the pills seem to have been made by her herself, and Doctor Bai even wants to be her apprentice."
Mrs. He: "..."
Mrs. He felt like she was about to turn to stone.
When Doctor Bai left, he looked inscrutable and only said, "Your noble son is blessed by the heavens. I did nothing wrong." She took it as just the doctor being modest.
Could it all really be true?
Madam He pressed her temples. "Son, let me catch my breath. I need to process this."

Ding Huizhu waited outside the door for a while.
The dean came up and saw Ding Huizhu still standing there, and was a little surprised: "Madam, you..."
“We await the divine physician,” Ding Huizhu said.
The dean exclaimed in surprise, "But the miracle doctor is already gone!"
Ding Huizhu: "..."
She gave Aunt Wan a sharp look. If Aunt Wan hadn't said that the miracle doctor was still inside, she wouldn't have stood there dumbfounded for several minutes.
Aunt Wan was so frightened that her knees buckled. "Madam, I'm so sorry, I was just talking nonsense. I had a stomachache and went to the toilet..."
Ding Huizhu was holding her breath. She had already lost enough face today, and she didn't want to scold the servants here. So she said coldly, "Go back and receive your punishment!"
They couldn't even handle such a small matter properly, letting the miracle doctor leave like that. How rude is that? What if the miracle doctor develops a grudge against the Xie family, or even against Xie Ziyuan, because of this?
She was extremely frustrated. She hadn't expected Xie Ziyuan to be so capable, but it was the people around her who made her drag Xie Ziyuan down.
The dean didn't quite understand these things; he came up here on another matter.
“Madam, I saw Miss Xie Li go downstairs alone. She said she was going back to school.” He said cautiously, “Should you send someone to take her back to school?”
After all, Xie Li was brought here by Ding Huizhu, and this place is really quite far from Linjiang No.1 Middle School.
It would have been better if he hadn't brought it up, because the moment he did, Ding Huizhu's temper flared up again.
She believed that Xie Li must have said something to the dean.
Instead of honestly apologizing and admitting her mistakes, she repeatedly clashed with Old Madam He and the miracle doctor, compounding her errors, and yet she still expected them to send someone to take her back.
She's certainly putting on airs like a spoiled young lady!
Ding Huizhu said coldly, "Don't worry about her. Since she wants to leave, let her take the bus home by herself."
When Ding Huizhu arrived at the lobby on the first floor, she saw an old man talking to Xie Li.
The old man was not tall; when he stood next to Xie Li, he only reached Xie Li's chin, which looked somewhat comical.
The old man was talking to Xie Li when he saw Ding Huizhu and her group. His expression changed, and he walked a little closer to Ding Huizhu.
