Chapter 360: You're sick, you need treatment

~7 min read 1,344 words

Xiao Hua'an and Xiao Nanfei looked at Lin Yang with a calm expression.

Thinking to himself, the old man wondered where he had caught such a golden son-in-law.

Xu Ling, looking unconvinced, said.

"How could they possibly just give away a villa worth over a hundred million?"

"There must be some exchange of benefits between you."

Upon hearing that, Xiao Nanfei and the others thought it made sense.

"We're all in business, so we naturally know that the more valuable something is, the less likely it is to be given away freely."

"Wang Lin being able to give Lin Yang a villa worth a hundred million shows there is some benefit exchange between them."

"Or perhaps Lin Yang did something for Wang Lin."

Seeing Lin Yang ignore him, Xu Ling felt his point was justified.

"Lin Yang must have been intimidated; otherwise, why wouldn't he speak?"

"Hah, that's the extent of your vision."

Liu Yan looked at Xu Ling with a sneer.

Xu Ling, displeased, said, "What do you mean?"

"Literally, I'm saying your vision is narrow."

"Lin Yang can't be bothered with you, and I, this young woman, am annoyed."

"What do you mean by benefit exchange? Lin Yang got this through his own abilities, right?"

"If you can suppress the people of the Xuánmén (Mysterious Gate) Association in the field of feng shui, you too could have someone give you a villa."

Now, Xiao Zhengguo, who had been watching the show with interest, could hardly sit still.

"Hey, girl, what do you mean by that?"

Liu Yan smiled and recounted what she had heard.

Looking at the disbelieving crowd, Liu Yan chuckled and said.

"This isn't something Wang Lin told me personally; if you don't believe me, you can go ask."

Xiao Zhengguo suddenly burst out laughing.

"Hahaha, indeed, as my grandson-in-law, you can even suppress the Xuánmén (Mysterious Gate) Association."

Upon hearing that, Xiao Yufan pouted and said.

"Grandfather, do I really have to marry him?"

Upon hearing that, Xiao Zhengguo laughed and said.

"Who said you have to marry him?"

"Ah?"

Now, not only Xiao Yufan, but even Xiao Nanfei and the others looked at Xiao Zhengguo with puzzlement.

"What do you mean by that?"

Xiao Hua'an suddenly shouted.

"Ah, I get it—Grandfather has an illegitimate child outside, and this person is going to marry his external granddaughter."

Xiao Zhengguo, who had been smiling, instantly had his face darken.

He stepped up to Xiao Hua'an, raised his hand, and delivered a hard slap.

"You, stay confined at home for a month; if you dare go out, I'll break your legs!"

The slapped Xiao Hua'an wore a look of grievance.

"Grandfather, you're angry because I hit the mark, right?"

Xiao Hua'an's words earned him another slap from Xiao Zhengguo.

"If you can't speak, then shut up!"

"He's your aunt's son-in-law—how is he not my grandson-in-law?"

Upon hearing the old man's explanation, everyone looked enlightened.

"So he's Xiao Fangfang's son-in-law."

Xiao Yufan also ended up blushing deeply.

She walked up to Lin Yang and said with a hint of apology.

"Sorry, I misunderstood earlier."

"I thought Grandfather had arranged my marriage for me."

Upon hearing that, Xiao Zhengguo laughed angrily.

"I'd also like to find you such a perfect match, but it's hard to come by."

"Among the young people I've met, Lin Yang is the best."

Saying that, he walked over to Lin Yang, patted his shoulder, and said.

"Fortunately, he will from now on be considered part of the Xiao family."

Liu Yan teased, "Old man, your family doesn't seem to welcome Lin Yang."

"I'm afraid they won't become one family."

"Go on, our family doesn't dislike Lin Yang at all."

He turned to look at Xiao Nanfei and said.

"Let me tell you, Lin Yang is also an ancient Chinese doctor; he saved my life!"

"Even without the connection through Fangfang and Ni Chang, he's still my lifesaver—you should respect him!"

"An ancient Chinese doctor?"

While others were astonished, Xu Ling curled the corner of his mouth into a smile.

I didn't expect that, Brother Lin, though young, you're still an old-school Chinese medicine practitioner.

Although he was smiling, Lin Yang still saw hostility in his eyes.

Previously, Lin Yang made himself fail at Showing Off, and he still remembers the grudge of being slapped in the face.

Even if Lin Yang has no relation with Xiao Yufan, he still wants to make Lin Yang lose face.

Looking at the hostility in Xu Ling's eyes, Lin Yang laughed and said.

I don't know, what advice do you have?

Xu Ling gave a hehe laugh and said to Lin Yang.

Brother Lin, I studied abroad; they sneer at the Yin-Yang Five Elements of Chinese medicine.

They think you Chinese medicine practitioners are frauds, used to deceive people—what do you think?

Lin Yang hearing this, also did not get angry.

He said: "Not long ago, someone didn't believe in acupoints; I demonstrated it to him, and then he believed."

Really?

Xu Ling slightly raised the corner of his mouth, looking at Lin Yang and said.

So, should you now demonstrate it to me?

Xiao Zhengguo was about to speak up to stop it, but Lin Yang waved his hand to stop him.

He laughed and said to Xu Ling: "The Yin-Yang Five Elements cannot be demonstrated intuitively."

That means you can't say it, it's all just nonsense based on feeling?

He sneered at Lin Yang.

Lin Yang shook his head and said: "Although it can't be demonstrated intuitively, I can see your condition."

Xu Ling laughed and said: "Then go ahead and say, what condition do I have?"

Shall I take your pulse?

Lin Yang shook his head and said.

That's unnecessary, because your external performance is too obvious.

Xu Ling coldly snorted, looking at Lin Yang.

Then go ahead and say.

Lin Yang said to him: "Your kidney water is weak, liver fire exuberant, causing deficient fire to flare upward, resulting in bad breath."

This is what people commonly call kidney deficiency.

Upon hearing this, Xu Ling flew into a rage.

You're full of shit, you're the one who's kidney deficient, your whole family is kidney deficient!

Looking at the furious Xu Ling, Lin Yang shook his head and said.

Look at you, your voice is sharp, your vital energy insufficient, obviously your primordial energy is damaged.

The spleen governs muscles, its brilliance lies in the flesh, its orifice opens at the lips.

Your lips are dry and cracked, indicating a spleen problem.

The spleen and stomach are interior-exterior partners, their orifice opens at the mouth.

You also recently have a lack of appetite.

Your body, from long-term staying up late and excessive indulgence, is already extremely fatigued.

You need to be regulated.

Hearing Lin Yang's words, Xu Ling shouted.

You're full of shit, you're framing me, you're framing me!

My health is great, I certainly haven't overindulged!

Lin Yang shook his head and said.

If you don't believe me, in the future only your wife will be left to guard her widowhood.

These words instantly hit Xu Ling's weak point.

Recently, his performance in that area has been somewhat lackluster, which worries him greatly.

After hearing Lin Yang's words, he hesitated for a moment and said.

I still have things to do, I'll leave first.

Having said that, he left without looking back.

Everyone saw his state and naturally knew that Lin Yang's description was true.

Xiao Zhengguo laughed heartily, looking at the crowd and said.

My son-in-law is impressive, right? He can tell a person's illness without even taking the pulse.

Then he said to Xiao Yufan.

Xiao Yu, ah, this friend of yours is no good; from now on don't associate with him.

Xiao Yufan stuck out her tongue and said.

Actually, we only just met today; I was afraid you'd try to set me up, so I brought him back.

Saying this, she turned her gaze toward Lin Yang, her eyes holding curiosity and shyness.

If he really became my husband, that wouldn't be bad either.
