Seeing Yu Zhou still the same, and not refuting, Master Liu Ling was overjoyed, thinking he had guessed correctly.
However, to get something for free, one still needed to maintain a certain demeanor.
He was a master, revered by everyone in both business and politics.
It was absolutely impossible for him to actively seek out someone to treat, especially using Qigong.
"Sir, sir, please stop beating around the bush. Is there a way to resolve this? If there is, please hurry and find a way to help him!"
Indeed, even if Yu Zhou could remain patient, the others couldn't.
It wasn't that these people were all kind-hearted and immediately sought help upon seeing someone else's future troubles.
Rather, they also wanted to witness the skills of Master Liu Ling. Wasn't demonstrating Qigong the perfect appetizer for the banquet?
Even though Yu Zhou didn't believe in Qigong at all, many of the other guests believed deeply. In their eyes, if you were sick, you needed treatment.
And once Master Liu Ling made a move, his cures were always effective. Why wouldn't they want to see his methods?
"Alright, who told this master he couldn't bear to see people suffer?"
"How about this, I'll prescribe you a dose of medicine, and then you can combine it with practicing my unique Qigong. In about half a year, all hidden dangers will be eliminated."
Liu Ling was very familiar with this routine. Even though Yu Zhou hadn't said a word yet, he had already started prescribing medicine.
The prescription was extremely casual, seeming to be just a few Chinese herbal ingredients mixed together, including many that could cause diarrhea.
Upon a glance, Yu Zhou's heart started to resist. Good heavens, how did this guy get to where he was? Could a Qigong master also moonlight as a doctor?
What was this act of doing good deeds all about? Was he really sick?
Then, Master Liu Ling handed Yu Zhou a bound, ancient-looking manual.
The whole process was so practiced and natural that Yu Zhou was almost stunned.
Weren't the scamming methods of this person said to be very sophisticated? Why was it so clumsy with him, practically shoving a manual and acting magnanimous? Was this shoddy acting really the legendary Master Liu Ling?
"How much do I need to pay? Master, name your price, and I'll pay for him."
Chen Aiguo, a man of earthy spirit, immediately asked about the price upon seeing these items given to Yu Zhou.
He had already spent ten thousand on a manual before, and now with another manual and a prescription, shouldn't it be double?
If Yu Zhou hadn't remained silent, and if he himself hadn't invited Yu Zhou, he might have been unwilling to be a sucker. But now, no matter the cost, as long as his friend's hidden dangers could be removed, it was all worth it.
Finally, Yu Zhou realized that if he didn't speak up and show some reaction, he might not even be able to leave the banquet hall today.
He began to speak, "But I only have one wife, and after we got married, I was busy with other things. I never fooled around even once?"
"At most, it was within normal bounds. How could I be losing out?"
Alright, he finally started to refute.
It wasn't because he wanted to expose Master Liu Ling, but because the prescription was truly bothersome to him.
If it were just the manual, he could accept it, considering it a way to integrate into the circle of bosses.
But now, not only did he get these things, but he was also being given medicine, with an implication that he had to take it, and Chen Aiguo was ready to pay.
This was not in line with his way of doing things. If you don't provoke me, I'm indifferent. But if you try to trick me, no matter who you are, even a Qigong master, I will bring you down.
His words silenced the entire room.
Almost no one had expected Yu Zhou to start refuting.
Even Lin Haichao looked surprised. While he knew the master was incorrect, contradicting a Qigong master in such a setting was not a wise move.
You might even be attacked by the crowd, wouldn't you?
After all, some people believed in Qigong with all their hearts.
"Huh?"
Even Liu Ling himself was stunned. Had he guessed wrong again?
But before, even if he had guessed some things wrong, it had never led to such public refutation. Was this a precedent?
Countless curious eyes focused on Yu Zhou, as if trying to discern whether what this person said was true or false.
"Is it fun to stubbornly deny it? Master Liu is a person of great stature. Would he lie about such a matter?"
"Boss, I think you should apologize quickly. Otherwise, if you anger Master Liu, one 'Iron Mountain Lean' from him might paralyze you for life."
"Is that necessary? For Master Liu to deal with him, it's as easy as flicking a finger. Hurry and apologize!"
"I think he just doesn't want people to know he's been fooling around outside, which is why he's vehemently denying it."
"But to dare question Master Liu is an unforgivable offense."
Murmurs began to spread, so much so that Master Liu Ling himself was stunned?
He didn't even need to refute, and these bosses were already speaking up for him? They were all verbally attacking this person?
This was precisely why Master Liu Ling loved his identity as a Qigong master so much.
"It's not that serious. It's normal for a young man not to believe us old folks. Once I perform for him, he'll believe."
Liu Ling seemed to have found his audience and immediately announced that he would perform Qigong.
Suddenly, the expressions of everyone who was already dissatisfied with Yu Zhou became even more displeased.
To dare to question Master Liu, and with such an expression, you're courting death.
Immediately, many people who enjoyed a good spectacle began to gather. In their eyes, this was a Qigong performance that rarely happened in many years.
Indeed, Master Liu Ling had some skills, otherwise, he wouldn't have directly announced he would perform at this time.
Yu Zhou, on the other hand, couldn't help but roll his eyes. In this situation, the other party still wanted to perform his Qigong?
Did he really think Yu Zhou was a fool?
He had originally intended to question further, but then he considered that questioning at this moment would be of no use. So many bosses on the scene deeply believed in him, and very few people knew Yu Zhou. Questioning would only lead to more anger.
So he decided to just watch for now, as he knew in his heart what Qigong truly was.
Could this guy really have Qigong?
