“Stop!”
Deng Qingya’s father stopped his wife, “Don’t forget what we’re here for today. Although we’ve been put in a difficult position, we’re here to ask for Doctor Hua’s help. We have to bear this grievance because we must!”
If Gu Qingchen didn’t have the ability to read minds, perhaps she really believed that this man had some magnanimity.
Unfortunately, she could read minds and knew what he was thinking.
If the father really meant what he said, he would not wait until now to say these words, and he would not watch his daughter being hit by Gu Qingchen.
He stopped his daughter and wife at this moment to pressure Gu Qingchen.
Hehe, as expected, the older, the wiser.
But who was Gu Qingchen? She had died once. How could she be bound by such low-level moral coercion!
“Old Liu, prepare some medicine for this young lady. If they want to wait, just let them wait. Don’t delay the normal business.”
Deng Qingya’s father did not expect Gu Qingchen to be indifferent even after he had said those words. It was as if she had not heard anything.
Deng Qingya was so angry that her head was smoking. What was this? She had never seen someone who was so disrespectful to her family!
Her face was swollen in pain, yet she still had not achieved her goal. This was unacceptable!
After Gu Qingchen finished speaking, she did not stay any longer and went to the backyard.
Gu Qingchen saw her master, Doctor Hua, sitting in the backyard as soon as she entered the backyard, and he was not in his room.
“Why are you sitting here, Master?” Gu Qingchen walked to Doctor Hua and sat on the stone chair.
Doctor Hua was also a little surprised to see Gu Qingchen. Still, he quickly became arrogant again and pretended to be angry at Gu Qingchen, “Humph, you wretched girl! How long has it been since your last visit? I thought you forgot about me after I taught you everything!”
“Hehe, Master, are you acting coquettishly with me? If I remember correctly, you were the one who said that you wanted to go into seclusion and not allow anyone to disturb you.”
Gu Qingchen smiled and looked at Doctor Hua. Doctor Hua’s face darkened, and he said awkwardly, “The whole seclusion thing and stop treating patients are meant for the outsiders only. When did I say that you cannot come and see me! Humph, I think you have forgotten about me!”
Gu Qingchen did not know whether to laugh or cry as she looked at her master, who was causing such a ruckus. However, she liked her master’s personality very much.
“I know I’m wrong. I’ll visit you more often in the future so you won’t be bored.”
She could finally see that her master was definitely bored from his seclusion, which was why he was so arrogant.
Doctor Hua saw that Gu Qingchen was still rather sensible, so he did not continue to complain. Instead, he asked, “What are you doing here today?”
Gu Qingchen then explained the purpose of her visit today and told her thoughts to her master.
Doctor Hua pondered for a moment and looked at Gu Qingchen in surprise. His eyes were filled with disbelief. “You said that you treated Rong Yu’s acupuncture points last night, and you’re still can running around today?”
Gu Qingchen nodded. She had already been surprised by this point herself.
“It really pisses me off! You are definitely the genius blessed by the heavens. I have lived for many years and have never seen such a weirdo like you. I am very lucky to take you as my disciple!”
Doctor Hua had been lamenting over there. He did not expect his unintentional act to allow him to receive such a talented disciple.
“Mm, I also think you’re lucky to have me as your disciple.” Gu Qingchen said with a smile.
Doctor Hua rolled his eyes, “You’re not modest at all!”
“It’s all thanks to your teaching.” Gu Qingchen replied very modestly this time. The corner of Doctor Hua’s mouth twitched a few times.
“But according to what you said, Rong Yu has his own method to suppress pain. His method takes a long time to take effect and requires very strong willpower. But, it cannot be denied that medicine is less effective for him in his current situation. Furthermore, now that I know that your acupuncture points treatment will be of great help to him. With you as his personal physician, it is not a bad method to treat his acupuncture points every day.”
Doctor Hua had previously thought of using acupuncture with silver needles, but his energy was limited. Every time he used a silver needle for acupuncture, it would take him several months to recover his physical strength. So, he could not use this method unsuitable.
However, Gu Qingchen was different. He could see that his disciple was like a superwoman, and she could make all kinds of miracles happen.
“However…” Just when Gu Qingchen was feeling a little happy, Doctor Hua suddenly changed the topic, “This silver needle acupuncture can only suppress the pain of his illness. If you perform the silver needle acupuncture everyday, it will reduce the incidence of his illness. However, it cannot completely cure his illness.”
Gu Qingchen was initially a little excited, but she calmed down again.
That’s right, this method could not cure Rong Yu completely.
But it did not matter. As long as Gu Qingchen worked hard to think of a way, she might be able to cure Rong Yu.
Just like how she found a way to temporarily suppress Rong Yu’s pain, perhaps one day, she would find a way to completely cure Rong Yu.
“Don’t worry, Master. I will do my best.”
Doctor Hua could not help but sigh when he saw Gu Qingchen in such a state. “Rong Yu is truly a man with great insight, and he has long decided that you would become his personal physician. Even I have to admire him!”
Rong Yu was a man with great insight. This was something Gu Qingchen had long known.
“But Rong Yu is not an easy person to deal with. He is cunning and ruthless. You are now his personal physician. Don’t underestimate him and fall into his wolf’s den!”
Doctor Hua initially wanted to remind her not to fall into Rong Yu’s trap. Still, Gu Qingchen thought otherwise, and her face instantly turned red.
Thinking of the events of the past few days, Gu Qingchen felt as if she had fallen into a wolf’s den.
“Why is your face red?” Doctor Hua stared at Gu Qingchen, and Gu Qingchen coughed lightly.
“Nothing. Oh right, Master, there are people from the Deng family outside seeking treatment. Since you are so bored, do you want to receive them?”
Gu Qingchen quickly changed the topic to prevent her master from noticing anything.
No one knew that she was staying at Rong Yu’s place. She still needed to keep it a secret for the time being. Otherwise, she would not be able to answer her parents.
Doctor Hua waved his hand, “I’m not going. I already said I am in seclusion now, and I won’t make any more house calls. You have already taken over my mantle. I’ll leave such matters to you in the future.”
Even when she heard that the other party was a member of the Deng family, her master did not relent. Gu Qingchen knew that her master really wanted to close the mountain and stop making house calls.
However, she did not understand why her master suddenly decided to retire. Gu Qingchen could tell that Doctor Hua was in such a hurry to take in a disciple back then as if it was so that he could retire.
She always felt that her master had some unspeakable secrets.
