Capítulo 1862: Chapter 1765: There’s No Such Thing as a Free Lunch
Butler Li felt a bit guilty: “It was Miss Yue who said that this Huo Sining studied Chinese dicine and was a disciple of a master TCM practitioner in Huaxia Country, who has unique skills in saving people. The situation was urgent at the ti, so I let Miss Huo give it a try. However, this Miss Huo was truly remarkable. She casually pressed a few points on the master’s body, and within minutes, the master woke up, and his complexion also improved significantly.”
Butler Li’s words were quite in line with what Bill had said, indicating that Bill didn’t exaggerate. It seed that this woman nad Huo Sining indeed had so remarkable skills.
The Li Family Brothers showed surprise and delight in their eyes. They had always believed Western dicine to be more effective than Chinese dicine, and over the years had placed their hope in it. They hadn’t expected Western dicine to have no solution for their father’s illness, while TCM seed to have so effect.
With this in mind, the two brothers imdiately thought of the sa thing.
Western dicine doesn’t work, so let’s try Chinese dicine instead. This woman, Huo Sining, they didn’t know what thod she used, but she actually managed to alleviate the old master’s condition. However, no matter what, as long as it could cure the master’s illness, they didn’t care what thod was used.
The Li Family Brothers placed their hopes and the key to healing on Huo Sining. As they watched her follow Li Jun out of the room, they approached her silently and urgently said:
“Miss Huo Sining, please wait a mont!”
Upon hearing the Li Family Brothers call out, Huo Sining turned her head and looked at the two n puzzled: “Uncle Li, Uncle Li, what can I do for you?”
“Miss Huo, could we speak in private?”
Father Li and Uncle Li smiled warmly, their gaze towards Huo Sining was blazing hot, so much so that it made Huo Sining feel a bit uneasy.
Even Li Jun found their fathers’ gaze too strange, frowning as he looked at them, unsure what had gotten into his father and uncle.
“Dad, Uncle, if there’s sothing you want to say, just say it. There are no outsiders here. Is there sothing we can’t hear?”
“This…” Father Li and Uncle Li exchanged glances and both looked at Huo Sining, wanting to consult her opinion.
Huo Sining vaguely guessed what they wanted to ask and didn’t intend to hide anything, so she straightforwardly nodded: “Feel free to ask whatever you want, there is no problem.”
Father Li nodded, pondered his wording, and then spoke: “It’s like this, we just heard from Doctor Bill that after my father passed out, it was thanks to Miss Huo that he woke up so quickly. So we would like to ask, what thod did you use to treat my father?”
Huo Sining laughed: “It was just simple acupoint stimulation. I learned Qigong Massage Technique, leveraging Qigong to stimulate acupoints. It can unblock ridians, activate cells, and eliminate toxins, blood stagnation, and diseased cells, thus achieving the effect of curing illnesses and saving people.”
The Li Family Brothers were overjoyed upon hearing this: “Is this Qigong Massage Technique a subject of TCM? I heard you say you learned from Professor Nie Dechang, was this massage technique also taught by Professor Nie Dechang?”
The Li Family Brothers assud this massage technique was sothing Huo Sining learned from Nie Dechang. If the disciple was so skilled, wouldn’t the master be even more brilliant? If they found Professor Nie Dechang, it might not be difficult to cure their father’s illness?
However, the Li Family Brothers were thinking too far ahead; Huo Sining’s next words pulled them down from their cloud.
“That’s not the case. This Qigong Massage Technique is a secret technique, not sothing a typical TCM practitioner would understand. I know this secret technique because, when I was young, I t an old beggar. Seeing he had a connection with , he taught
this thod.”
Huo Sining seed to see through the Li Family Brothers’ thoughts, paused, then continued:
“Later, that old beggar left, and I have never seen him again. If you want to find that old beggar, it’s probably not possible. When I was a child, that old beggar was already in his late seventies. It has been more than ten years, so even if you do find out who he is, he might have already passed away.”
Upon hearing this, the originally hopeful faces of the Li Family Brothers fell.
But thinking about it, finding the master is impossible, but the disciple doesn’t seem too bad either. At least Huo Sining casually showing a skill had shocked Bill, proving her dical skills shouldn’t be shabby and she might have even more to offer.
With this thought, Father Li’s eyes, which had felt hopeless, once again sparkled:
“No problem, we are not looking for that old beggar; we want to find Miss Huo. From your examination just now, you should have so understanding of our old master’s illness.”
“To be honest, our brothers have sought many people to see this illness of my father’s, but none had much effect. If this illness continues to drag on, I’m afraid my father won’t last long, so I want to ask Miss Huo if you have any different insights or suggestions regarding my father’s illness?”
After Father Li’s question, even Li Jun looked over at her.
Yue Shuwen knew Huo Sining’s Spiritual Energy could save people. Seeing her silent, she beca a bit anxious: “Ningning…”
Huo Sining knew Yue Shuwen was filled with gratitude towards Li Changming, and would not want to watch him be tornted by illness.
She didn’t refuse to save this old man, but the reason she tried to save Qin Lianshan was due to their ntor-friend relationship. With Li Changming, she didn’t have such deep feelings. The world is full of those suffering from illness. If she saved everyone, wouldn’t she be exhausted to death?
“Uncle Li, it’s not impossible for
to save soone, but you should also know, there’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world…”
Huo Sining said lightly, looking just like those doctors in a hospital who are utterly detached and impersonal.
Li Jun was used to seeing Huo Sining’s gentle and elegant deanor, so he was a bit taken aback seeing her cold and indifferent expression.
Father Li, fearing that Huo Sining might change her mind, hurriedly said: “That is of course, Miss Huo, you can rest assured. As long as you save our old master, whatever the treatnt costs, feel free to ntion it.”
Recognizing Father Li’s expression, Huo Sining realized he misunderstood her intention.
The reason she ntioned there’s no such thing as a free lunch was because she valued the Li Family’s connections. However, in Father Li’s view, he thought she was asking for a substantial consultation fee.
