Chapter 385

~7 min read 1,255 words

Guo Kailin, upon hearing that Zhao Kuo had brought someone from Heavenly Martial Hall, couldn't help but show a pleased expression.

She knew that the people of Heavenly Martial Hall were all practitioners of ancient martial arts!

It's normal for some of them to know ancient Chinese medicine.

She felt that the medical skills of Heavenly Martial Hall's people were surely superior to Lin Yang's.

She then excitedly grasped Zhao Kuo's hand.

"Thank you, thank you!"

Zhao Kuo laughed and said, "Auntie, you don't need to thank me; Ya Nan and I are childhood friends, this is what I should do."

"However, he said his medical fees would be a bit high."

"I don't have that much cash on hand..."

Guo Kailin, upon hearing that, immediately put on a displeased look and said.

"Look what you're saying—you've already found a doctor for Ya Nan; how could I let you pay?"

"I'll cover this expense!"

"Afterward, I'll also give you a token of thanks."

Zhao Kuo was about to speak when Guo Kailin said.

"You can't refuse; this is my heartfelt intention."

"If you refuse, I won't let you come see Ya Nan in the future."

Hearing Guo Kailin say that, Zhao Kuo showed a reluctant expression and nodded, saying.

"Since you've put it that way, Auntie, I can only agree."

Guo Kailin gave a slight smile and said to Zhao Kuo.

"By the way, how much does that person charge for a consultation?"

"It's a bit pricey—ten million—but he said he can cure it completely."

"Ten million?"

Guo Kailin muttered to herself.

But, for her daughter's sake, she decided to ask Ya Nan's biological father for money!

"Okay, ten million it is."

"When will that person arrive? I'll start gathering the money right now."

Luo Ying, standing nearby, said.

"Auntie, don't rush—Divine Doctor Lin isn't here?"

"Why not let him try? Maybe it'll work."

Guo Kailin glanced at Lin Yang and gave him an apologetic smile.

"Divine Doctor Lin, I'm really sorry—I almost forgot you were here."

Lin Yang laughed and shook his head, saying, "It's fine."

"As Luo Ying said, why not let me give it a try first?"

"If it works, we'd save that unnecessary expense."

Zhao Kuo snorted upon hearing that and said.

"You're not even a medical school graduate, and you have no medical license."

"If something goes wrong and you run off, who will we hold responsible?"

"The person I invited is from Heavenly Martial Hall."

Lin Yang laughed and said, "Who knows? My medical skills might surpass those of Heavenly Martial Hall's people."

"Hahaha, are you joking?"

"Do you know what Heavenly Martial Hall is?"

"I dare say, what Heavenly Martial Hall can do, you cannot; you cannot, Heavenly Martial Hall certainly can!"

"You're just trying to swindle some money—I'll give you 100,000, now get lost!"

Seeing Zhao Kuo look down on Lin Yang like that, Luo Ying angrily said.

"Mr. Zhao, what do you mean? Divine Doctor Lin once saved Ya Nan's life!"

"Besides, he was invited by Ya Nan herself!"

Ya Nan also angrily said, "Zhao Kuo, I demand you apologize to Mr. Lin!"

"Furthermore, for my illness, I won't let anyone besides Mr. Lin treat me!"

Guo Kailin, upon hearing that, frowned slightly and said.

"Ya Nan, what are you saying in anger!"

Ya Nan snorted and said.

"I'm speaking the truth; if you make Mr. Lin leave, I won't accept treatment!"

Guo Kailin felt embarrassed and looked at Lin Yang.

"My daughter has a somewhat stubborn temperament."

Zhao Kuo, seeing Ya Nan so determined, also looked angrily at Lin Yang.

"This guy, he hasn't shown up for so long."

"I finally managed to find someone from Heavenly Martial Hall, and now he suddenly appears—isn't he just opposing me?"

"But this is fine too!"

"With the people of Heavenly Martial Hall here, I can settle both new and old grudges together!"

He walked up to Lin Yang's side and whispered.

Lin, don't get too pleased with yourself!

I'm telling you, even if you cure Ya Nan today, you'll still get a beating!

You bullied me last time; this time I'll repay you in kind!

Lin Yang smiled and said, "Really?"

I feel like today you'll have to kneel and sing 'Conquer' for me.

Sing 'Conquer'?

Zhao Kuo gave a cold laugh and said, "You must be dreaming!"

Just you wait and see!

He said to Guo Kailin, "Guo Auntie, I'm going to call that person from Heavenly Martial Hall to ask where he is."

Okay.

After Zhao Kuo left, Ya Nan said discontentedly.

"Mom, I don't like Zhao Kuo, hurry up and make him leave!"

Guo Kailin frowned slightly and said.

"The doctor they invited for you, you can't be this rude."

Saying that, she looked at Lin Yang, wanting to speak but hesitating.

Seeing his gaze, Lin Yang gave a slight smile and said.

"I know what you mean; you're choosing to believe the person from Heavenly Martial Hall, right?"

Guo Kailin gave an embarrassed laugh and said.

"I'm rather vain, I guess."

Lin Yang said: "How about this: wait for that person to come, then you decide who will treat Ya Nan's illness."

Okay.

Guo Kailin thought, "Could the people from Heavenly Martial Hall really give up earning ten million?"

Not long after, the ward door was pushed open.

Zhao Kuo walked in with a middle-aged man sporting an eight-shaped mustache.

"Auntie Ding, this is the Mr. Wu I mentioned!"

Ding Kailin nodded and extended her hand, saying.

"Hello, Mr. Wu; I heard you're from Heavenly Martial Hall, didn't expect your medical skills to be so good too."

Listening to Guo Kailin's flattery, Wu An nodded and said.

"Don't say those empty words; give me ten million and I guarantee I'll cure your daughter."

Saying that, he looked toward the sickbed where Ya Nan lay.

"Mr. Wu is straightforward, so I won't waste words either."

"I'll give you five million first, and after it's successful, another five million—what do you think?"

Okay!

Zhao Kuo looked at Lin Yang provocatively.

"Surname Lin, with Mr. Wu here, you just stand aside."

Wu An then looked over.

When he saw Lin Yang, his whole body shuddered.

"Mr. Lin, it's you here!"

Lin Yang nodded and said.

"You know me?"

Wu An gave an embarrassed laugh and said.

"I've seen you following the Hall Master."

He rubbed Nannan's head.

"It's still raining; I'll take Nannan home."

"My mom will be here soon; I want to wait for her."

Just as he finished speaking, a tall girl in a white shirt, white canvas shoes, head down, hands shielding her face, ran over with small quick steps.

Seeing the girl, Nannan smiled and walked under the eaves.

"Nannan's here waiting for mom again; let's go home."

Hearing that familiar voice, Ye Fei froze and involuntarily turned his head.

"It's raining; I have an umbrella, you can take it back."

Luo Xin originally wanted to refuse, but seeing the rain getting heavier, she could only turn and take the umbrella.

Luo Xin originally wanted to refuse, but seeing the rain growing larger in the sky, could only turn their head to take the umbrella.

With that turn, both Ye Fei and Luo Xin froze.

After a brief moment of stunned silence, Luo Xin's pupils shrank, filled with three parts fear and seven parts hatred, she gritted her teeth and said.

After Luo Xin's brief daze, her pupils contracted, she spoke through gritted teeth with three parts fear and seven parts hatred.
