“Me?” Lu Feng pointed to himself. “When I was five years old, you treated my illness. Oh, and back then, I also picked up a child.”
"What?" Zhuang Le's expression changed.
Was it him?
Master Zhuang released his disciple and walked over to examine Lu Feng closely. He did indeed resemble him somewhat as a child. He laughed loudly, "Is it really you, kid?"
"Was it Xiao Lu who found Lele back then?" Liao Qingshan, who followed in, was extremely surprised.
Li Xiyue already knew, but she still showed the same surprise as her grandfather, and pulled Zhuang Le to Lu Feng, "What a coincidence? The person who picked up Sister Lele is actually Brother Lu?"
Lu Feng looked at the unruly girl and was quite shocked. "You're the little sister I picked up back then?"
It's like the flood washed away the Dragon King's temple; family members don't even recognize each other.
Zhuang Le never expected that the person he had been targeting was actually the benefactor he had been searching for.
No wonder his moves looked so familiar; it turns out he really is someone I know.
She felt guilty, remorseful, and ashamed. She tugged at her fingers, head bowed, like a child who had done something wrong.
Although she is no longer a child, she did do something wrong.
The group sat down and listened to Lu Feng recount the 'grudge' between the two.
Old Master Zhuang slammed his fist on the table in anger, “You brat, I made you study medicine to save people, not to harm them! Now get rid of the Gu poison in Xiao Lu’s body!”
During their years in Yunnan Province, their apprentice learned to raise Gu worms from the locals. Originally intended to cure diseases and save lives, it unexpectedly turned into a crooked and evil practice.
This girl dares to act recklessly behind his back; she's asking for a beating.
This time, Zhuang Le didn't argue back and obediently took out the antidote.
"Thank you, Miss Zhuang."
Seeing how polite and courteous the other person was, and then looking at his own apprentice, who was like heaven and earth, Master Zhuang couldn't help but rub his forehead and say, "You, you, look at your own behavior, and then look at others, aren't you ashamed?"
Zhuang Le instinctively wanted to retort, but this time he realized he was indeed in the wrong, so he said nothing and let his master scold him.
Lu Feng quickly tried to smooth things over, "Dr. Zhuang, I was also at fault in this matter, it's not Miss Zhuang's fault."
Li Xiyue looked at the two of them with a smile.
They really were destined by fate.
When they were children, Lu Feng found Zhuang Le, who had been abandoned. Later, the two met again in the black market.
This must have been arranged by fate long ago.
Liao Qingshan also spoke up for Zhuang Le, "Uncle-Master, Lele was just playing around with Xiao Lu. I believe she wouldn't really hurt anyone."
Master Zhuang believed this. His disciple was a bit willful, but he was kind-hearted and would never easily take someone's life.
"Okay, okay, I was wrong, alright?"
Old Zhuang chuckled, "Rare indeed, this is the first time in history that you've admitted a mistake."
"Old man, are you ever going to stop?" Zhuang Le couldn't save face anymore. "I'll make up for my mistakes, so please stop nagging me, okay?"
"Fine, fine, you clean up the mess yourself. I'm not going to wipe your ass."
Zhuang Le's face turned red. "What did you say?"
It was rare for Old Zhuang to see her blush. He originally wanted to make a few jokes, but considering that there were outsiders present, he decided to save face for her and refrained from saying anything more.
Zhuang Le picked up the wine, poured one for Lu Feng, and then poured one for himself. "Brother Lu... I'm sorry. I was unreasonable and acted willfully, which made you suffer. I apologize to you."
"Miss Zhuang, you flatter me." Lu Feng wanted to stop her, but she tilted her head back and downed the wine in one gulp, so he had no choice but to drink a cup as well, then refill his glass and apologize to her as well.
He never imagined she was the child he had picked up years ago. If he had known, he would never have laid a hand on her.
The two of them drank cup after cup, unable to stop, but the grudge they had formed earlier was finally resolved.
After the meal, the relationship between the two progressed rapidly. Zhuang Le even put his arm around Lu Feng's shoulder and went to his house to continue drinking, declaring that they would not leave until they were drunk.
