In Ye Bowen’s hospital room.
When Li Zhongfu saw Ye Bowen’s condition, his expression became solemn. Without even taking his pulse, he stated directly, "The one who tied the knot must untie it. Tell me, who caused your son to be like this?"
"It was Doctor Li," Ye Zhizhan said helplessly.
Li Zhongfu was not surprised and expressed some admiration. "To achieve such precision in acupoints, this medical skill is truly remarkable."
He actually wanted to say, "As expected of my grandson," but Li Se was part of the Li family, and not many people knew about it. He didn't want to reveal it just yet, as it would greatly affect Li Se.
Ye Zhizhan said with some frustration, "Imperial Physician Li, this cannot go on. After all, he is Shengjun's attending physician. I can't be too aggressive, so can Imperial Physician Li think of a solution?"
"I heard he is here at this sanatorium?" Li Zhongfu inquired.
"Yes," Ye Zhizhan nodded.
"Then let's arrange a meeting," Li Zhongfu said with a smile.
Li Se was still with Leng Rushuang. Upon seeing Li Zhongfu enter Ye Bowen’s hospital room, he knew he would be summoned. As expected, in less than ten minutes, he received a summons.
"I'll go with you," Leng Rushuang also worried that the Ye family might resort to rough methods again.
Li Se smiled and waved his hand, "No need. Imperial Physician Li is also here. The Ye family only wants Imperial Physician Li to speak and have me treat him."
Leng Rushuang was momentarily at a loss for words. If the Li family was involved, then indeed there was nothing to worry about.
Not long after, Li Se appeared in Ye Bowen’s hospital room.
"Elder Mr. Li," Li Se said respectfully.
"Heh heh, impressive. To make this kid Ye Bowen cause so much trouble," Li Zhongfu praised.
Ye Zhizhan was puzzled. Was this the time for praise?
"Elder Mr. Li, you flatter me," Li Se said, cupping his hands slightly.
Li Zhongfu smiled and said, "But no matter what, he still needs to recover."
"Elder Mr. Li, I actually informed the Ye family of the recovery method long ago," Li Se said with a helpless expression.
"When did you inform us?" Secretary Wen asked angrily. This fellow was clearly lying.
Li Se shrugged, "I did, you just didn't want to listen."
Ye Zhizhan sneered, "Forgive my ignorance, but how could I possibly not know?"
"Kneel and talk," Li Se said, blinking his eyes.
"Who are you telling to kneel and talk?" Ye Zhizhan asked furiously.
Secretary Wen rebuked, "Do you know who Mr. Ye is to dare tell him to kneel and talk?!"
Li Zhongfu, however, looked at him with a strange expression and said, "Are you suggesting that Ye Bowen should kneel?"
"Yes, the recovery is very simple. Just have Ye Bowen kneel on the ground. Basically, kneeling for an hour will automatically resolve the acupoint blockage, and he won't suffer as he is now," Li Se said with a slight smile.
"What nonsense are you talking about? How can kneeling cure an illness?" Secretary Wen couldn't believe it.
Li Se said indifferently, "It's fine if you don't believe me. Of course, this is just one plan. The second method is to kneel and beg me, and then it will be very easy to resolve."
Ye Zhizhan and Secretary Wen’s expressions were very unpleasant. Li Zhongfu’s expression, however, was incredibly amusing. He couldn't help but chuckle inwardly that the esteemed Ye family was being played for fools. However, he was also worried, as the Ye family's influence was still quite terrifying, and could Li Se withstand it?
"Imperial Physician Li, look at him. He clearly has a way to cure it but wants my son to kneel and beg him!" Ye Zhizhan said helplessly.
Although he was angry, he couldn't show it too obviously. Li Se was clearly deliberately making things difficult.
Li Zhongfu sighed, "Young Ye, this Doctor Li is a lifesaver to my Li family. It's not good for me to force him. Let's try the first method. If it doesn't work, then you can come to me again, and I will definitely help you!"
With that, he looked at Li Se, his voice becoming a bit stern, "If it doesn't work, you must step in and treat him. Do you understand?"
"Alright!" Li Se agreed.
After Li Zhongfu and the others finally left, Ye Zhizhan had Ye Bowen kneel on the ground. He truly knelt for a full hour. Fortunately, it did have an effect. Ye Bowen only felt his legs go numb, but the sensation of being bitten by tens of thousands of insects had completely disappeared.
"Dad, I… I'm better!" Ye Bowen said joyfully.
"It's good that you're okay, it's good that you're okay," Ye Zhizhan also breathed a sigh of relief. After all, he was his biological son, and he naturally cared for him very much.
"Dad, we absolutely cannot let that Ye Tianyun go. How dare he torment me? He also destroyed our family's training base. We must settle the score with him!" Ye Bowen said in righteous indignation.
Ye Zhizhan remained silent. He looked at Ye Bowen, took a deep breath, and said, "Bowen, calm down for now. This Li Se is quite something. Moreover, because he is a lifesaver to the Li family, you saw the Li family's attitude just now; they are clearly siding with him."
"Are we just going to let it go?" Ye Bowen said unwillingly.
Ye Zhizhan replied, "We're not letting it go. However, we need to keep a low profile for now. The family knows about your situation. If you continue to be humiliated by a doctor, you might lose your position as the head of the Ye family."
Upon hearing this, Ye Bowen clenched his fists, his eyes filled with cold resolve. All of this was because of Li Se. Yet, from the beginning of their confrontations, he had never won, which made him incredibly frustrated. For now, he had to calm down, though he truly felt wronged. But at this moment, he could only grit his teeth and say, "Dad, I understand!"
Then, as if remembering something, the corner of his mouth curled up, "Dad, I have one more thing."
"What is it?"
"I hope to marry Tang Xi as soon as possible!"
…
In the evening, before Li Se had returned home, he received a call from Tang An.
"Brother-in-law, where are you?" Tang An's anxious voice came from the other end of the phone.
"What's wrong?" Li Se asked with confusion. Had something happened?
"My sister is in trouble," Tang An said urgently.
Upon hearing this, Li Se couldn't help but become anxious, "What happened? Just tell me!"
"The Ye family wants to get married as soon as possible. They're holding an engagement ceremony in the next few days, don't you know? My sister is heartbroken right now. Why aren't you coming to comfort her?" Tang An said.
Li Se frowned slightly. The Ye family wanted to get married soon? He quickly understood what was happening. Ye Bowen, having been trampled by him time and again, now wanted to find a sense of superiority by suppressing Li Se through Tang Xi…
