"mom!"
Chen Luo rushed forward and quickly took his mother from Wen Wan's arms.
"ah!"
Ling Huihua let out a scream, her face contorted in extreme pain, and she frantically reached for her back with both hands.
Chen Guangrong, who was standing nearby, immediately exclaimed, "Son, hurry up and get the medicine! Your mother's illness has flared up again. Go get her a sedative!"
Lin Shuzhen rushed over at this moment, anxiously patting Ling Huihua's back.
Amidst the chaos at the scene, Wen Wan turned and shouted something to Mo Lan.
"Quick! Bring Mr. Immortal up here!"
Mo Lan and Mo Ye immediately ran down the slope, while Wen Wan quickly took out a packet of medicine from her bag.
"Alo, pour some water for Auntie to take her medicine."
He quickly poured a glass of water over. Chen Luo didn't even ask what kind of medicine it was because he was convinced that Wen Wan definitely had a solution.
Wen Wan took out a bottle of medicine from her bag and poured out a capsule.
"Auntie, this is painkiller. It will help."
Despite the pain, Ling Huihua slightly opened her mouth, and Wen Wan quickly put the capsule into it. Chen Luo then handed her a water glass so that Ling Huihua could swallow the capsule.
Less than thirty seconds after swallowing the capsule, Ling Huihua's brows immediately relaxed, and her whole body gradually calmed down.
Chen Luo and Wen Wan helped him to sit down on the sofa, and Chen Guangrong, who was standing to the side, showed a slight change in expression.
He knew his wife's illness best. Normally, when she had an attack, even after taking painkillers, she would be in pain for at least half an hour before she could calm down.
Not to mention that Wenwan's arrival today has startled her more than ever before, causing her to experience very strong emotional fluctuations and making her prone to nerve pain.
But this medicine works almost immediately after taking it. Is this medicine really that miraculous?
Seemingly noticing the questioning look in Chen Guangrong's eyes, Wen Wan spoke up to explain.
"This is a special medicine that I had specially brought from the United States. It can quickly stabilize the condition. I brought about 100 pills this time. Uncle, please take them first. I will have someone send more later."
Chen Guangrong's face twitched slightly as he took the bottle of medicine.
This special drug is so effective, and it's an imported drug, so it's probably the kind that ordinary people can't buy, and the price must be quite high.
This bottle of medicine might already be worth over a million.
"Xiao Wen, your aunt and I can't..."
Before she could finish speaking, Wen Wan spoke first.
"Uncle, we're family, so let's not stand on ceremony, shall we?"
With a single sentence, Wen Wan shut Chen Guangrong down. Her words implied that she was already being treated as a daughter-in-law of the Chen family, giving them no chance to refuse.
Chen Guangrong wanted to say something more, but at that moment Mo Lan and Mo Ye helped an elderly man with white hair and beard walk in.
Although the old man looked frail and old, he had an air of otherworldly grace about him, but his eyes still held a sharp glint.
As soon as the old man entered, Wen Wan immediately stood up and bowed to him.
"Mr. Immortal, I am ashamed to have troubled you to come all the way from the capital."
"Alright, you little girl, don't be so polite. The patient is over there. I'm not doing this for your sake, but for the patient's sake."
"Being the wife of a frontline police officer is not easy enough, let alone being harmed like this by a petty thief. If I, an old man, were to encounter that villain, I would definitely stab him with a needle until he wished he were dead!"
"Yes, yes! Please give me a diagnosis of my future mother-in-law."
Wen Busi slowly approached Ling Huihua's side, placed one hand on her pulse, closed his eyes, and carefully took her pulse.
Chen Luo walked to Wen Wan's side and whispered a question in her ear.
"Who is this immortal man? Is his medical skill extraordinary?"
Wen Wan pulled Chen Luo back a few steps and whispered in his ear.
"This immortal gentleman is a member of a collateral branch of our Wen family. According to seniority, I should call him Grand Uncle, but he usually has people call him Immortal, so we call him that too."
"hiss!"
This is someone from Wen Wan's grandfather's generation, probably a powerful figure in the Wen family, right? But he's just a doctor?
Wen Wan immediately understood Chen Luo's confusion upon seeing his expression and promptly explained.
"Normally, as a member of the Wen family, one would choose to go into politics or business, but this immortal man was obsessed with medicine and spent most of his life studying traditional Chinese medicine. He never married or had children."
"As for his medical skills, you can rest assured. Almost all the big shots in the central government who have difficult and complicated diseases are solved by the Immortal."
Holy crap! Isn't this the top imperial physician from ancient times?
What kind of price must it have cost to invite such a person here?
This highly respected person
"Wan'er, you..."
"Don't look at me like that. If you want to thank me, then wait until tonight."
Wen Wan smiled at Chen Luo, then ignored him and looked at Wen Busi.
Wen Busi opened his eyes at this moment, and there seemed to be lightning flashing in his eyes.
"That thug was truly vicious, causing such a serious old injury that has dragged on for so many years. I'm afraid the condition is quite troublesome."
"Mr. Immortal, is there no way even you can do anything about it?"
Wen Wan looked at Ling Huihua with some worry, her eyes filled with urgency.
"Sixth girl! What are you saying!"
"Old man, I was just saying it's troublesome, it's not like it's incurable."
"Even if the King of Hell wanted to take someone from me, he would have to think twice, let alone this little illness."
Faced with the rebuke from the immortal man, Wen Wan showed no displeasure, but simply nodded in agreement.
This was the first time Chen Luo had ever seen Wen Wan so respectful. He figured it wasn't just because of her seniority, but also because of his mother's illness that she was being so respectful.
"So, what do you think we should do in this situation?"
Mr. Immortal nodded, pondered for a moment, and then spoke.
"Alright, you just gave her the special medicine, so she won't have any more attacks for a while."
"The old man will give her acupuncture later. After the Spring Festival, you can bring her to Beijing and send her to Peking Union Medical College Hospital."
“There are some of my old man’s beloved students there. I will consult with them and treat the patients for a year or two. We should be able to cure them completely.”
Those who could be called beloved disciples by this immortal man must at least be leading figures in the medical field. With such people consulting together, Ling Huihua's illness should be fine.
"Mr. Immortal, thank you! Our whole family is grateful to you!"
Chen Luo stepped forward and excitedly grabbed Wen Busi's hand. His mother's illness had always been a huge burden on the hearts of the father and son. Today, hearing that there was finally hope for a cure, how could he not be excited?
"Alright, kid, no need to thank me. Thank your father. A policeman who is targeted and sought after by criminals must be a good one. For that reason alone, this old man should lend a hand."
Chen Luo turned to look at his father, only to see Chen Guangrong turn and walk towards the bedroom, close the bedroom door, and let out a heart-wrenching cry.
After receiving news that his wife had hope of recovery and would no longer be tormented by pain, the shame and self-blame that had been suppressed in his heart for many years were finally released at this moment. The huge boulder finally fell from his heart, and the seven-foot-tall man cried like a child in the room.
"Aren't you going in to see your uncle?"
"Let him cry. Dad has been holding it in for far too long these past few years."
Everyone listened to Chen Guangrong's cries in silence for a long time.
A full hour later, the bedroom door opened, and Chen Guangrong, with red eyes, walked out of the room and stood in front of Wen Wan.
"Xiao Wen, tonight, your uncle is treating you and Mr. Immortal to dinner. This is a family dinner, and also a thank-you dinner. You can't refuse, understand?"
