Chapter 38: Endearnt
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Zhou Xiang married into the Cen family for over three decades, and she had an intimate relationship with Madam Cen like they were mother and daughter.
Upon hearing that, Zhou Xiang felt awful, and tears welled up in her eyes beyond her control. “Mom, you’re going to recover; you’re going to recover for sure!”
Madam Cen clutched Zhou Xiang’s hand tightly. “So, just let give it a try, Xiang Xiang. What if I really can be cured?”
Seeing Madam Cen’s behavior, Zhou Xiang could not bear to reject her again, so she nodded and said, “Alright. Please take it for a few days and give it a try. However, we should agree in advance that if anything were to happen during the process, we should stop taking the dicine imdiately.”
Madam Cen was as joyous as a three-year-old kid when Zhou Xiang finally nodded in agreent. “Don’t worry, Xiang Xiang. Ye Zi is amazing! She will certainly be able to cure !”
“Who’s Ye Zi?” Zhou Xiang was stunned for a mont.
Granny Cen replied, “Ye Zi is my granddaughter-in-law!”
“The young maiden’s na is Ye Zi, huh?” Zhou Xiang clarified.
Madam Cen nodded.
When Doctor Lin found out that Madam Cen wanted to stop his treatnt and take the useless dicine prescription, he was furious. One should know that he was a famous doctor in Yunjing Province!
Could it be that a famous doctor whose na was well known all over the country could not asure up to a naless junior?
Was that old woman from the Cen family so old that she was dented?
Doctor Lin ca to the villa where the Cen family lived on the sa day and took away the dicine kit that he left with the Cen family.
Realizing the situation, the butler hastily inford Zhou Xiang. After all, Doctor Lin had always been in charge of treating Madam Cen’s illness since they ca to Yunjing Province.
Upon hearing that, Zhou Xiang did not procrastinate as she hastily rushed over to the scene. “What are you doing, Doctor Lin? Why are you suddenly leaving?”
Doctor Lin carried the dicine kit in his hand. His brows were tightly furrowed, while his expression was extrely unpleasant. “I advised you about not seeking treatnt from two different doctors for one illness. Since Madam Cen has already found a master to treat her illness, I won’t stand in the way!”
Zhou Xiang smiled and said, “Doctor Lin, where did that co from? Everyone knows that you’re the most famous doctor in Yunjing Province. We’re relying on you to cure my mom’s illness. Besides you, where else can we find a doctor who is brilliant and skilled?”
Who had no penchant for flattery? It was no exception even for a famous doctor like Doctor Lin. Upon hearing that, Doctor Lin’s expression cald down a little.
“Yet, I heard that… Madam Cen has already stopped taking my prescribed dication.”
Zhou Xiang continued, “You’ve misunderstood, Doctor Lin. We’ve only stopped your treatnt temporarily. It’s not that we don’t trust you but the person who provided the prescription to my mom is a junior mber that she admired. It’s the junior mber’s kind intention, so we can’t reject her as senior mbers, naturally. Don’t worry, Doctor Lin. Even if the treatnt has been halted temporarily, we will still pay the consultation fees and dical costs during this period. Doctor Lin, just think of this as giving yourself a short break.”
Doctor Lin could still accept the first part of Zhou Xiang’s statent, but his expression imdiately changed drastically when he heard the latter part of the statent. “Could it be that in your eyes, I’m that kind of vain person subjected to flattery?”
What was Zhou Xiang trying to imply here? Did she think that she could solve every problem with money?”
“Traditional Chinese dicine prioritized rapport. Since I don’t have a rapport with your mother-in-law, we should stop here. Certain matters can’t be forced!” Upon saying that, Doctor Lin turned around and walked away.
“Doctor Lin! We can figure this out together!” Zhou Xiang hastily caught up to Doctor Lin.
Doctor Lin stopped walking. “It’s fine for to stay, but I stand by what I said. Do not seek treatnt from two different doctors for one illness.”
Commissioning two doctors for one patient was a humiliation to doctors!
Suddenly, Madam Cen’s voice was heard coming from behind. “Since Doctor Lin wants to leave, just let him leave, Xiang Xiang.”
“Mom?” Zhou Xiang turned around.
Madam Cen raised her head to look toward Doctor Lin. “There’s the door; please help yourself, Doctor Lin.”
Upon hearing that, a cynical look erged in Doctor Lin’s eyes. “Madam, it’s not that I’m bluffing; your headache is a symptom caused by coldness. In the dical field, the cold syndro is an incurable, deadly symptom. It’s a coincidence that my first ancestor studied this syndro in the past. Other than myself, even if you were to search through the entire China, let alone Yunjing Province, you won’t be able to find a second person capable of curing your headache! I believe that you understand this, or else your headache would have already been cured 20 years ago!”
Doctor Lin’s remark was both a reminder and a warning! After all, it really seed that no one else could cure Madam Cen other than him.
Therefore, he refused to believe that Madam Cen would not beg him to stay after hearing what he said.
“Perhaps, Doctor Lin is unaware that however strong you are, there is always soone stronger, right?” Madam Cen’s voice sounded rather cold.
Doctor Lin turned his head to look toward Madam Cen. “Then, I hope that you will recover soon and live a long life, Madam Cen. I’m just going to be blunt here. If you were to regret this and wish to commission again in the future, you would not have the chance to do so anymore.”
“Don’t worry; I’m an old woman who won’t ever regret my words and actions!”
“Alright, I shall rember that! I’d like to remind Madam Cen to rember your words today!” He refused to believe that anyone else could cure her cold other than him!
In less than a month, the old woman would regret this! By that ti, it will be far too late!
The Cen family had just relocated to Yunjing Province, so Doctor Lin did not know too much about them. He thought that the Cen family was just an ordinary wealthy family. As a result, he made remarks that disregard others’ feelings.
After saying what he wanted to say, Doctor Lin turned around and left.
Zhou Xiang panicked, and she was about to go after Doctor Lin. However, Granny Cen held onto Zhou Xiang’s hand. “Don’t bother.”
Zhou Xiang heaved a sigh. “Mom, but your health….”
“I’m fine. I still have Ye Zi!” The old woman patted Zhou Xiang’s hand.
Zhou Xiang could only give up. However, she did not put any hope on Ye Zhuo’s prescription. In her mind, she was already planning to send soone to commission Doctor Lin again when Madam Cen had cooled down.
…
In a cafe, Mu Yourong sat at a table next to the window. She seed to be waiting for soone as she was constantly looking out the window.
It did not take long before a young woman with a delicately made-up face walked toward her under the guidance of the waitress.
“Qingyue.” Mu Yourong greeted her with a smile.
“I’m sorry for being late.” Li Qingyue looked apologetic.
Mu Yourong said with a gentle voice, “It’s fine. We’re besties, so there’s no need to fuss about this. I ordered your favorite cappuccino and almond biscotti for you.”
Li Qingyue was just an orphaned girl living under soone else’s roof now, but five years later, Li Qingyue would dazzle everyone!
In Mu Yourong’s mories from her past life, Li Qingyue relied on her sole effort to eliminate the Yi family’s only son, Yi Tao. Afterward, she seized Yi Enterprises and turned it into hers. In fact, she had even acquired Li Enterprises, and in the end, she had even gained a steady foothold on an international scale!
As a result, Mu Yourong was figuring out a way to turn Li Qingyue into her ally at once after being reborn.
Earlier, Mu Yourong had made the first move to save Li Qingyue, and that was why Li Qingyue trusted Mu Yourong very much now.
They engaged in small talks for a while before Mu Yourong entered the main topic by saying, “So how are things at the Yi family? Do you still need more Annox?”
Li Qingyue hesitated for a mont before she talked about the incident where Ye Zhuo ca to the Yi family’s ho to treat Yi Tao’s illness.
Upon hearing that, Mu Yourong looked up in slight astonishnt. “Ye Zhuo? Are you sure that you aren’t mistaken?”
‘Since when was Ye Zhuo skilled in dical practice? What the heck was going on? How could Ye Zhuo have changed so much?’ All sorts of thoughts ran through Mu Yourong’s mind at once.
Li Qingyue nodded. “I’m sure! That person was Ye Zhuo. Oh right, this is the prescription given by her. You can take a look if there’s anything wrong with it.” Even though Li Qingyue had already examined the prescription and found that there was utterly nothing wrong with it, she was still slightly concerned.
What if she missed sothing?
It was still better for her to be cautious in this matter.
Mu Yourong took the prescription and brought up the system to examine it.
After a while, Mu Yourong’s face cracked into a smile. “Don’t worry; this prescription won’t have any effect on the Annox Disease.” She knew that Li Qingyue was being overly concerned. How could a deadbeat be skilled in the art of healing, anyway?
Ye Zhuo was just the deadbeat of the Mu family in the past. Now that Ye Zhuo was back in the slums, she would still be unable to escape Mu Yourong’s control! She would remain as the bastard child of a mistress in this life!
