Sheng Qiani was slightly surprised to see this person.
Liu Wentian, puzzled, asked, "What's wrong, do you know this person?"
Sheng Qiani nodded and replied, "Indeed, I do know him. It seems Zhu Wenhai might be suffering from a male-specific illness. This man is Li Qihui. I've t him at a conference back when he was studying in the United States. He's a Yale School of dicine PhD specializing in male-specific ailnts and has won several dical awards. Yale wanted to keep him as a PhD supervisor, but he declined and returned to China where he simultaneously received offers from several top-tier hospitals. He's quite capable but extrely arrogant, intolerant of anyone challenging his views. At that conference, I rely voiced so differing opinions, and since then, he has held a grudge against ."
As Sheng Qiani was describing this, Li Qihui, who had just politely shaken hands with Liu i, saw her, furrowed his brow, then snorted coldly, "What, Dr. Sheng, are you here to treat Mr. Zhu too?"
Sheng Qiani replied coolly, "What I'm here for is none of your business, Dr. Li."
Li Qing and Liu i, seeing this, were both startled. It appeared that Li Qihui and this blond beauty indeed had so conflict.
Li Qing chuckled mockingly, "Cousin, so you know this beauty, and she's even a doctor. But it isn't this beauty who ca to treat our old man, it's this young fellow beside her! Isn't that funny? A lad whose facial hair has barely grown claiming he can treat illnesses with traditional Chinese dicine!"
"Oh? Traditional Chinese dicine?"
Li Qihui was also stunned. He had assud it was Sheng Qiani coming to treat the illness. Although he had so disagreents with Sheng Qiani, he acknowledged that she had so skill, being a Yale-educated PhD just like himself.
However, it turned out that it was this young lad beside her who would be treating the illness, and with that absurd traditional Chinese dicine!
Li Qihui sneered inwardly, the corner of his mouth twisted in a sinister curve, "Although it's a bit strange, since Dr. Sheng brought him here, this young man must have so skill. Otherwise, wouldn't that an Dr. Sheng is mocking us all? Let's all go in together and check on Mr. Zhu."
His words clearly ant if the young man turned out to be inept, then the problem lay with Sheng Qiani, implying that she blindly brought soone incompetent.
He didn't believe in traditional Chinese dicine, nor did he believe this young man had any real skill. Having them both go in was rely to see the other two make fools of themselves.
Li Qing imdiately grasped his cousin's intention, his smile slightly mocking, "You're right, cousin. Since we're here, let's go in and see. I hope so people aren't just eyeing a potential windfall and causing trouble; otherwise, it'll just be embarrassing!"
Sheng Qiani's eyebrows knotted in anger, but Liu Wentian shook his head at her and smiled, "It's okay, so people like to pretend, but I love putting them in their place. Whether or not he has any skill will soon be clear. No need to fuss over a re watchdog."
Though Liu Wentian's voice was low, everyone present heard him clearly. Li Qing exploded, "What did you say, you little punk? Did you just call a watchdog?"
Li Qihui's expression turned ugly too as he coldly snorted, "Overestimating oneself, such low class!"
"Alright everyone, let's not fight anymore; let's go inside. Wenhai is in his study. You all can wait in the living room while I call him out," Liu i, seeing the brewing conflict, hastily intervened.
Liu Wentian and the others followed Liu i to the living room, after which Liu i left to call Zhu Wenhai, asking Li Qing to entertain the three guests. Li Qing nodded obsequiously in agreent, but once she was gone, he only made tea for Li Qihui, completely ignoring Liu Wentian and his companion.
Liu Wentian, noticing this, sneered to himself, waiting for a chance to deal with this pompous fellow. Discover stories with empire
Soon, Liu i returned with a middle-aged man of scholarly deanor, holding so docunts in his hand.
That man was Zhu Wenhai, a well-known business tycoon in Shenming City.
"Mr. Zhu," upon seeing this man, Li Qihui imdiately stood up from the sofa. No matter how proud he was of himself, he showed so reverence to such a prominent figure as Zhu Wenhai.
"Please don't be formal, sit down, thank you, Dr. Li, for coming all the way from the capital to see ." Zhu Wenhai smiled, seeming very approachable.
"Mr. Zhu, you flatter , it's truly my honor to attend to you!" Li Qihui said, sowhat ingratiatingly.
When Liu Wentian saw this scene, he thought to himself that it was no wonder Li Qihui and Li Qing, who were cousins, acted just like groveling dogs in front of people they dared not offend, typically bullying the weak and fearing the strong.
Liu i handed the docunt she was holding to Li Qihui, "Doctor Li, this is Wenhai's dical report, please take a look."
"Alright."
Li Qihui flipped through the report for a while and his expression changed. Zhu Wenhai, seeing this, felt a sinking feeling and asked, "Doctor Li, how is it, can you treat this problem?"
Li Qihui smiled and said, "Yes, it's possible! However, it might take so ti and will require Mr. Zhu's cooperation."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Wenhai's face showed great joy.
"Pfft!"
Just then, laughter ca from the side.
Li Qing, looking angrily at the laughing Liu Wentian, exclaid, "Doctor Li is treating the old master, what are you laughing at!"
Li Qihui was also annoyed and said, "Young man, I was originally ignoring you for using traditional dicine to trick people, but I didn't expect you to lack even the basic decency. You, of all people, have no right to be in Mr. Zhu's house!"
Zhu Wenhai and Liu i also felt displeased, finding Liu Wentian sowhat impolite, especially since Li Qihui had just claid he could cure Zhu Wenhai's illness. They were indeed siding with him, convinced of Li Qihui's real capabilities, so their gazes towards Liu Wentian already had a hint of wanting to expel him.
Sheng Qiani also looked at Liu Wentian perplexedly, not understanding why he suddenly burst out laughing.
Liu Wentian curled his lips, "I laughed because Dr. Li here is puffing up his face to look fat, which I find quite amusing, so naturally, I laughed."
"Scoundrel!" Li Qihui, furious, said, "Who are you saying is puffing up his face to look fat?"
"Of course, I'm referring to you. You clearly can't cure Mr. Zhu's illness, yet you claim you can, if that isn't puffing up your face to look fat, what is?" Liu Wentian retorted coldly.
Li Qihui's face slightly changed, "Nonsense," he responded. "Mr. Zhu's illness is just prostatitis causing low sperm motility. As long as the prostatitis is cured, he can surely conceive. How can you say I can't treat it!"
Standing nearby, Sheng Qiani was slightly shocked. It turned out that Zhu Wenhai was suffering from infertility, no wonder he hadn't had children at his age, and no wonder they were willing to spend a fortune on dical treatnts. It wasn't millions spent seeking dical treatnt; it was literally millions spent seeking offspring!
"Your approach is nothing more than curing the prostatitis and then having Mr. Zhu quit smoking and drinking, exercise more, and take so dications like vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc, selenium, etc., am I right? Have you ever considered why Mr. Zhu's prostatitis keeps recurring?" Liu Wentian said sarcastically.
"You... how would you know." Li Qihui was utterly dismayed.
"Of course, I understand, because this illness simply can't be cured by Western dicine. You're using typical Western dical thinking and treatnts, addressing the symptoms but not understanding the root cause. I believe, Mr. Zhu must have tried this kind of treatnt before, right? And it obviously didn't work at all!"
Zhu Wenhai, seeing Li Qihui's reaction, understood that he really intended to first treat the prostatitis, then regulate his lifestyle. This thod of treatnt, he had already tried before, and it clearly had no effect.
