"It's not unwillingness, it's simply unnecessary!"
Long Yi smiled and said, "His background is incredibly significant. A single word from him might be enough to have the Lord of Donghai City personally welcome him!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Shaihai and Yang Shiyun were both startled and found it hard to believe. If that were true, then Lu Fan would indeed have an impressive background. However, they were quite skeptical of Long Yi's words.
Lu Fan had been an orphan since childhood. Even if he was saved by a master and learned some medical skills, it was unlikely to warrant a personal welcome from the City Lord, as that was no ordinary matter.
However, at that very moment, Lu Fan also looked sharply at Long Yi. He had long suspected that Long Yi had ulterior motives for coming to Jiangjing Longting, and now it seemed to be true. After all, Lu Fan had never revealed his identity to Long Yi, so how could he know that Lu Fan possessed such a powerful status?
Moreover, from Long Yi's words, Lu Fan could tell that Long Yi knew him quite well and was likely targeting him.
It was just puzzling to Lu Fan why Long Yi, who had the opportunity to act, had delayed and instead engaged in conversation with him, even coming to Donghai City.
"Xiao Fan, is he telling the truth?"
Yang Shiyun asked with great curiosity, looking at Lu Fan. She initially didn't believe it, but since Long Yi could say such a thing, there must be some reason.
"How should I put it? I do have some reputation in Longdu!" Lu Fan said with an awkward smile. "But you don't need to pay too much attention to it; it's not as exaggerated as he says!"
"To be able to make a name for yourself in Longdu is already quite impressive!" Yang Shaihai nodded and smiled. "However, you can't hold up the grand occasion alone in Longdu. If you're unwilling to join forces with your uncle, your uncle won't force you, but you must think clearly. Your Lu family's enemies from back then will never give up!"
"Don't worry, Uncle. All of the Lu family's enemies have been eliminated. Moreover, even if there are greater powers behind them, I will gradually bring them to light!" Lu Fan revealed a strange smile. "I will never let them get away with it!"
"That would be for the best!" Yang Shaihai nodded slightly. "By the way, how is your second uncle doing? We haven't been in contact since we were separated over ten years ago!"
"Second Uncle has also opened a company in Chuzhou. Although it's not very large, he lives a comfortable life!" Lu Fan said directly. "After some time, I will inform him of the news, and then we can reunite. Grandmother will also be very happy!"
"Naturally, naturally!" Yang Shaihai nodded solemnly. "I never expected to see you again after so many years. It's just a pity about your parents..."
Lu Fan clenched his fists slightly. He harbored deep hatred for the events of the past, but there was nothing he could do. After all, he was powerless to change the tragedy from over ten years ago.
However, Lu Fan was determined to investigate those who had attacked the Lu family back then.
"It's been so long, let's not talk about it anymore!"
Yang Shiyun said, "The food is ready. Let's eat and chat. You can tell us everything you've experienced over the years, Xiao Fan!"
Lu Fan nodded slightly and then went to the dining table. Long Yi, however, did not stand on ceremony and began to eat, appearing completely unconcerned.
There hadn't been much to eat at Canglong Academy before, so he wouldn't miss out on so many good things now.
Yang Shaihai poured Lu Fan a glass of wine. "Xiao Fan, what kind of company do you run in Longdu? I wonder if I've heard of it."
"It's just somewhat known, not a big company!" Lu Fan smiled slightly. "And it's all controlled by Lin Ke. I'm just a figurehead!"
"How can that be? As a man, you should bear responsibility. How can you let a woman manage the family business!" Yang Shaihai frowned. "Moreover, the deep hatred of blood is irreconcilable. If you can grow, you will surely uncover the truth of that year!"
Lu Fan was somewhat helpless. He had already said that all the enemies who attacked the Lu family back then had been dealt with, but no matter what, Yang Shaihai wouldn't believe him.
After all, the enemies from back then were too powerful, not something ordinary people could handle.
"Xiao Fan, with your powerful medical skills, you will surely hold a high position in the future!"
Yang Shiyun said, "Would you like me to help your company package you? Then you will be famous throughout Longdu and can also associate with more renowned figures!"
Gu Wen, engrossed in his meal, felt a bit awkward every time he heard them speak. Lu Fan's status in Longguo was already revered, and he didn't need any packaging.
Moreover, countless people wanted Lu Fan to treat them, but very few could actually get Lu Fan to act.
Just as they were dining, Old Mr. Han walked in from outside, looking quite obsequious. "Young man, what method did you use today? How were you able to bring someone back from the dead?"
"What, do you have an opinion?" Lu Fan glanced at him, his expression becoming even more indifferent.
"Not at all, not at all!" Old Mr. Han quickly smiled. "This old man merely wishes to glimpse your medical skills. To achieve this level anywhere under heaven, it's likely only the divine doctors of the Divine Doctor Pavilion can do it!"
"However, legend has it that the seven divine doctors of the Divine Doctor Pavilion are all in seclusion and there is no younger generation!" Old Mr. Han said directly. "If that's the case, young man, are you perhaps a disciple of one of the seven divine doctors?"
"You underestimate my master too much!" Gu Wen smiled faintly. "Even if the seven divine doctors of the Divine Doctor Pavilion were here, they would have to respectfully call you Lord Lu!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Old Mr. Han trembled slightly. If Gu Wen had said this before, he wouldn't have paid any attention, but now he had to. He knew very well how terrifying the technique Lu Fan had just displayed was.
"Even the seven divine doctors of the Divine Doctor Pavilion have to call him Lord Lu?"
Yang Shiyun stood by the side, her eyes filled with wonder. She was very curious about how profound Lu Fan's medical skills were, otherwise, why would he have such a foundation?
"There are many divine doctors under heaven, but the Divine Doctor Pavilion is the leader. Young man, you are not a divine doctor of the Divine Doctor Pavilion. May I know your lineage?" Old Mr. Han's expression was solemn.
"You are not worthy of knowing my lineage!"
Lu Fan narrowed his eyes. "There is no patient in this world that I cannot cure!"
Old Mr. Han trembled violently. Although Lu Fan's words were domineering, they were not unreasonable. He could only smile bitterly to himself.
After all, he had been practicing medicine for 50 years, had seen many difficult and complicated cases, and had witnessed many partings of life and death, but he had never encountered someone like Lu Fan, whose medical skills were so powerful, filling his heart with awe.
As the saying goes, the respected are the accomplished. In the medical world, what truly earns respect is one's medical skills.
