Chapter 625 Lin Family

Staring at the immense pressure, Li Se then accompanied Lin Wanqiu to a nearby milk tea shop. The flesh on his waist had turned purple and still ached.

Actually, Li Se knew why Lin Wanqiu had asked him out. His gaze was currently fixed on Lin Wanqiu, her fine, dark, long hair often draped over her shoulders, lending her a soft beauty.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Lin Wanqiu blushed under Li Se's stare.

Li Se coughed lightly, constantly reminding himself that he already had enough women and needed to exercise restraint. He then asked, "Did you ask me to come because of your grandfather's matter?"

"Mm!" Lin Wanqiu nodded. "When we were in Qingyun City, you refused to come to the capital. Now that you're here, I'd like to ask you to treat my grandfather."

"Certainly!" Li Se nodded readily. His relationship with Lin Wanqiu was quite good, and this girl's eyes were exceptionally clear, unlike others who seemed to have deep hidden agendas. Thus, he always felt particularly relaxed when interacting with her. Moreover, healing was his profession, and how could he refuse when she asked? httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět

Pausing, Li Se said, "However, your family might not believe me."

"My dad believes you!" Lin Wanqiu quickly replied.

"Your dad?" Li Se was taken aback.

Lin Wanqiu seemed to recall something and said somewhat awkwardly, "Because you saved me, my dad also knows your medical skills are excellent."

"Oh, I see," Li Se nodded in realization.

After finishing their milk tea, Li Se returned to the medical clinic, picked up his medical kit, and left with Lin Wanqiu. As for the clinic, he had no worries entrusting it to Huang Shanshan.

The Lin family resided in a large siheyuan in the capital. Courtyard houses of this scale were typically worth over a hundred million yuan. In the capital, acquiring such a property wasn't simply a matter of having money.

"Young Miss!"

As Lin Wanqiu entered the Lin residence, two guards at the entrance respectfully greeted her. Since Li Se was accompanying Lin Wanqiu, the guards naturally didn't stop him.

"Wanqiu, you've brought Divine Doctor Li?" Lin Junhao happened to be walking out from inside. He was slightly surprised upon seeing Li Se, then hurried over with a smile. "Divine Doctor Li, I was planning to look for you a couple of days ago, but I didn't expect you to come over first."

Li Se replied, "It's fine; Wanqiu coming here is just the same."

"Divine Doctor Li, please come in!" Lin Junhao urged. In truth, his grandfather's condition was very serious. Even with Li Se's intervention, the probability of successful treatment was not high, and he didn't hold out much hope.

Soon, they arrived in a large room. Upon entering, they were met with the smell of medicine, both Chinese and Western. Inside the room, several doctors in white coats were examining the Lin family patriarch. They were primarily responsible for the patriarch's daily health, and for any sudden emergencies, imperial physicians would be called.

"Young Master Lin, Miss Lin, who is this?" The doctor in charge looked at Li Se with some confusion, as Li Se was carrying a medical kit. Was he a doctor?

"Doctor Zhang, this is Divine Doctor Li, who has specifically come to treat my grandfather," Lin Junhao introduced.

"Young Master Lin, is he a doctor?" Doctor Zhang frowned. "I don't seem to have seen him before."

"Doctor Zhang, it's normal that you haven't seen him. He is a practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine from Qingyun City, and he only recently arrived in the capital," Lin Junhao said with a smile.

As soon as these words were spoken, the other doctors in the room were taken aback, but they soon frowned slightly.

"How can there be such a young practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine?"

"This is a case of desperation, seeking any help. Old Master Lin has imperial physicians attending to him, and we doctors are looking after him. Why would he need this young TCM practitioner?"

"Looking at how young he is, and being a TCM practitioner, his skills are probably not very good."

"..."

They weren't deliberately lowering their voices when they spoke; they were saying it for Li Se to hear. This was normal. In their view, traditional Chinese medicine had already declined. In the capital, there were indeed skilled TCM practitioners, such as imperial physicians like Sun Bai. It was pathetic that even they were helpless, let alone other TCM practitioners.

To put it bluntly, an imperial physician like Sun Bai was already at the pinnacle of the TCM world. If even Sun Bai was at a loss, it meant that TCM could not treat Old Master Lin's illness, and they would ultimately have to rely on Western medicine. Although they were currently helpless, as long as they could extend Old Master Lin's lifespan, they would eventually find a solution.

Doctor Zhang frowned and said, "Young Master Lin, isn't this a bit too hasty? How can someone so young have good medical skills?"

"Doctor Zhang, you may not know, but Divine Doctor Li's medical skills are extremely potent, capable of bringing the dead back to life. If even he is helpless, then my grandfather is likely truly beyond help," Lin Junhao still had considerable trust in Li Se's medical skills. Even if the hope was slim, it was worth a try, as that was the only way to have a chance.

"Doctor Zhang, please let Divine Doctor Li have a look," Lin Wanqiu said.

"Miss Lin, Young Master Lin, it's not that I won't allow it, but since I am Old Master Lin's attending physician, I must be responsible for him. If anything were to go wrong, I wouldn't be able to bear the consequences," Doctor Zhang said with difficulty.

"Yes, Young Master Lin, you mustn't be impulsive."

"A young TCM practitioner like this is too unreliable."

The other doctors also chimed in with their dissuasions.

"What's going on here?" Just then, a noble-looking woman walked in. She bore some resemblance to Lin Wanqiu but appeared more mature and alluring, estimated to be in her forties, yet still exuding charm.

"Mom, it's like this..." Lin Junhao explained the situation to this noble woman.

This woman was Lin Junhao's mother, Ye Fang.

And when she heard Li Se's name, she immediately became furious, "So it's you, you brat!"

"Mom, he's Divine Doctor Li. He saved me before..." Lin Wanqiu tried to interject.

Ye Fang ignored her, waving her hand and saying, "Tell him to get lost. At this age, could he possibly be better than an imperial physician?"

"Indeed!" Doctor Zhang and the other physicians nodded in agreement. Even if Li Se possessed some talent in traditional Chinese medicine at his young age, it was certainly no match for an imperial physician. If even Sun Bai was helpless, much less this youngster.

Li Se frowned slightly. Why did he feel that Lin Junhao's mother had a strong opinion of him, as if he were her enemy? However, with her words, he also felt a surge of anger. "Since that's the case, I shall take my leave!"

He would not treat someone who did not believe in his medical skills!

Ye Fang let out a cold snort, "Don't bother seeing him out. At such a young age, you dare to call yourself a divine doctor? Utterly laughable!"
