âIf you can cure my grandfatherâs illness, 40 million yuan is nothing. But what if you canât?â
The young man raised his chin and stared at Ye Xiaofei.
Ye Xiaofeiâs tone remained as calm as before as he said, âThen what do you want?â
The young man glared and said, âIf you canât cure it, then say it yourself â you Chinese medicine practitioners are liars.â
âDonât spout nonsense!â Elder Qian berated.
âSince he dares to ask me for 40 million, then he must have the courage to take this risk.â
âIt does make sense when you put it that way.â Ye Xiaofei nodded and said, âAlthough you insulted Chinese medicine, you didnât say anything insulting to me, but itâs a bit of a good thing.â
âHeh heh, do I need you to praise me?â The young man had a look of disdain on his face.
Ye Xiaofei stood up and said, âMingyuan, get the needle.â
âYes, sir!â Sun Mingyuan responded eagerly and brought the silver needle to Ye Xiaofei.
He Yuyao was even more excited â this was late-stage liver cancer. Ye Xiaofei said that it would only take a few minutes to cure it. It would be amazing if it could really be done.
âMingyuan, your strength is not enough now, but it wonât be long before you should be almost there. So you must watch carefully so that you can do better when you perform your skills in the future.â
âYes, sir!â Sun Mingyuan was respectful and polite, his eyes filled with excitement.
âPlaying tricks,â the young man muttered softly.
However, the old man and the middle-aged man both had on serious expressions. Ye Xiaofeiâs confident tone and Sun Mingyuanâs thrilled look made them feel that this young man could really cure him.
After the silver needle fell, Ye Xiaofei continued to explain the acupuncture technique, how to control the Qi with the needle, and how to destroy the damaged liver cells.
âChinese acupuncture actually is almost comparable to Western surgery, but Western surgery causes too much injury to the body. When we use acupuncture, we are able to not cut open the patient, while still being able to eliminate the diseased part of the human body, whatâs more, in a safer and more comprehensive way,â Ye Xiaofei said to He Yuyao.
Five minutes later, Ye Xiaofei shouted, âMove!â
The few of them took two steps back one after another. Ye Xiaofei helped the old man up, then waved his hand and took away several silver needles.
He slapped the old manâs back vigorously.
âHissâ¦â
A thin stream of blood suddenly spurted out from the pinhole that remained after the needle had been inserted. Several pinholes began to spurt at the same time, like a shower head.
âAh! What are you doing!â the young man cried out involuntarily.
âItâs expelling toxins and clearing the blood, donât worry.â Sun Mingyuan hurriedly said.
The blood had a stench and was blackish-red in color, making it look even more terrifying.
The blood spurted out for half a minute before it slowly stopped. Finally, it condensed into bright red beads of blood that slowly flowed down the old manâs body, looking somewhat disturbing.
Ye Xiaofei said, âAlright, you guys deal with the rest.â
Sun Mingyuan hurriedly took the medical cotton cloth. Just as he was about to reach out, the old man directly took it and said, âIâll do it myself.â
Sun Mingyuan smiled and said, âOld Qian, you look much better.â
âGood! Really good!â The old man wiped away the blood and said ecstatically, âOriginally, I felt as if my chest and stomach were stuffed with countless things, but now thereâs nothing. Itâs simply like Iâve been relieved of a burden. Most importantly, I donât feel any pain at all now, and my body has strength. This is really too magical.â
After pausing for a moment, the old man asked carefully, âThis is considered⦠Done?â
âMy Master said heâll cure you, so heâll naturally cure you,â said Sun Mingyuan proudly.
âImpossible! How could it be cured in an instant?â The young man immediately cried out, âThis must be a technique similar to hormones. My grandfatherâs feeling is short-lived, but heâs really sick and didnât get any relief.â
The middle-aged manâs eyes were filled with disbelief.
After hearing them doubting Ye Xiaofei several times, He Yuyao couldnât hold it in anymore. She took a step forward, her eyes sharp as she reprimanded, âIf you donât believe us, go to the hospital for a check-up. Donât waste your breath here. Also, when the results are out, you have to come over and apologize to my Grandmentor. Bring along 40 million, not a cent less.â
Sun Mingyuan also waved his hand and sighed. âYou guys should hurry up and go. This is the best way to dispel your doubts. Old Qian, sighâ¦â
After saying that, Sun Mingyuan let out a long sigh.
The old man could feel Sun Mingyuanâs frustration. He was upset for him. It was as if a good opportunity had been presented to him, but they had lost it.
The old man was already familiar with Sun Mingyuan, so he trusted Sun Mingyuanâs character. Then, he instantly made an important decision.
He turned to the middle-aged man and said, âZhongcheng, transfer 40 million to this sir. No! Transfer 50 million in consultation fees..â
