Chapter 395 Lu Xiao Shenyi
Old Master Su looked at Chen Xuan, his eyes gradually brightening, and smiled, "Good! As expected of the person Su Qian chose!"
"Old Master, is the Su family's current crisis a bit strange?" Chen Xuan asked casually after taking a sip of water.
"Oh? What have you noticed?"
A hint of surprise flashed across Old Master Su's face.
"Given the Su family's assets, countless banks would be lining up to lend to us. Yet, not a single one is willing. This is highly abnormal," Chen Xuan said, looking at Old Master Su.
Old Master Su found it hard to believe that these words were coming from a young security guard from Jiangzhou.
"Grandpa, are you willing to tell me? Perhaps I can help the Su family resolve their difficulties."
Chen Xuan's gaze was intense as he pressed for answers. To solve the Su family's problems, one must first find the root cause. Chen Xuan was new here and couldn't find the root cause immediately, so learning from Old Master Su was a good approach.
"When it's time, I will naturally tell you," Old Master Su shook his head. "You can't bear it yet."
"Alright," Chen Xuan said resignedly. Old Master Su didn't quite trust his abilities yet, or perhaps it was a form of protection from Old Master Su.
"What are you two talking about?" Su Yunxi walked over, holding a pot of freshly brewed tea, her smile as radiant as ever.
"Praising your father for choosing a good son-in-law!" Old Master Su said with a chuckle.
"Oh?" Su Yunxi was also somewhat surprised, her gaze flicking over Chen Xuan in bewilderment. "My grandpa rarely praises people. What did you say to him?"
"I promised Old Master Su that I'd come to see the sights in the capital within three years." Chen Xuan took a sip of the tea Su Yunxi brewed, and thought, "Ah, it's so fragrant!"
Just then, the butler led two young men in.
"Master, Young Master Guo is here to visit!"
Old Master Su frowned, appearing somewhat surprised, but he still stood up.
"Old Master, Yu Long has come to see you!" Guo Yu Long walked over with a smile, cupping his hands.
"Young Master Guo, you still visit this old man, how thoughtful of you," Old Master Su said with a smile.
"Yunxi is here too. What a coincidence, we both thought of coming here," Guo Yu Long said with a smile, spotting Su Yunxi.
"Why are you here?" Su Yunxi's pretty face instantly darkened upon seeing Guo Yu Long.
"Fate brings people together even from a distance; lack of fate keeps those apart even when face to face. Yunxi, this is destiny." As he spoke, Guo Yu Long kept glancing at Chen Xuan, his words clearly aimed at mocking Chen Xuan.
Su Yunxi seemed to realize something, narrowing her eyes and staring at Guo Yu Long coldly, "Did my mother tell you?"
Guo Yu Long's expression stiffened for a moment, but he quickly recovered and smiled, saying nothing. However, Su Yunxi had already figured it out. She had guessed correctly and stamped her foot in anger, "How could Mom do this!"
Su Yunxi's guess was correct. It was indeed Jiang Biyun who had told Guo Yu Long about Su Yunxi's whereabouts. Guo Yu Long wanted to deepen his relationship with Su Yunxi, so he proactively offered to come and see Old Master Su, as offering medical treatment to Old Master Su would be a significant step towards winning the beauty's heart.
Guo Yu Long quickly said, "Yunxi, Auntie means well. Besides, your grandpa is ill, and I should come and see him. I've also invited a renowned doctor to examine Old Master Su. The renowned doctor I've invited is quite formidable."
"No need! Someone is already seeing my grandpa," Su Yunxi said coldly.
"Yunxi, who is it? I wonder if they are as famous as the renowned doctor I invited?" Guo Yu Long sounded full of confidence. Guo Yu Long glanced around and, not seeing anyone who looked like a doctor, finally landed his gaze on Chen Xuan and burst into laughter, "Yunxi, you can't possibly be talking about him, can you?"
"Yes, it's him."
"Hahaha, Yunxi, are you joking? This bumpkin can practice medicine?"
Chen Xuan frowned, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
"Hmph, Chen Xuan's medical skills are actually very impressive," Su Yunxi said with a few wry laughs.
"No matter how impressive, can he be more impressive than the renowned doctor I invited?" Guo Yu Long pointed to the young man behind him, his words filled with pride. "This young man is the grandson of Divine Physician Lu, Lu Jian. He has inherited the true teachings of Divine Physician Lu and is proficient in Divine Physician Lu's Tai Chi Divine Needles and alchemy!"
"Lu Jian, the grandson of Divine Physician Lu? The young man who fought valiantly and shone brightly in the last medical competition?" Old Master Su was also taken aback and turned to look at the young man behind Guo Yu Long, his expression one of surprise. The Medical Competition was organized by the headquarters of the Medical Association and held annually, gathering many renowned doctors. Lu Jian, with his exquisite acupuncture skills, had turned the tide and won the championship of the Jiangnan Province region, thus becoming famous and highly sought after! He was known as Lu Xiao Shenyi!
Chen Xuan looked at Lu Jian with a peculiar expression. "The grandson of Divine Physician Lu?"
"To be honest, I was very busy. If Young Master Guo hadn't invited me, I certainly wouldn't have come," Lu Jian said with a cold demeanor, obviously playing up to Guo Yu Long, who had clearly given Lu Jian many benefits. Hearing this, Guo Yu Long felt very proud, but he said humbly, "Divine Physician Lu, you are too kind. Then I'll trouble you with Old Master Su's illness."
Lu Jian nodded and stepped forward. "Old Master Su, let me take your pulse."
Old Master Su extended his hand. "Thank you, Divine Physician Lu."
Lu Jian took Old Master Su's pulse. After a moment, he withdrew his hand.
"What is my grandfather's illness?" Su Yunxi asked.
Lu Jian turned to look at Old Master Su and said indifferently, "Based on the pulse, Old Master Su has cold limbs, feels fatigued, and is listless all day. Especially at night, the coughing worsens, isn't that right, Old Master Su?"
Everyone's gaze turned to Old Master Su. Chen Xuan's eyes also lit up, and he looked at Lu Jian with a bit more attention. This young man actually had some skill.
Upon hearing this, Old Master Su did not hesitate to praise him, "The young divine physician truly lives up to his reputation. Everything you said is spot on! Spot on!" Old Master Su had never described his condition to anyone in such detail, and yet Lu Jian's description was perfectly accurate. Lu Jian stood tall and proud, looking down on everyone.
"Yunxi, do you see how amazing Divine Physician Lu is?" Guo Yu Long quickly looked at Su Yunxi, seeking praise. However, Su Yunxi gave him no pleasant look. Instead, she turned to Chen Xuan and asked, "Chen Xuan, is what he said correct?" She trusted Chen Xuan more.
Guo Yu Long chuckled, "Yunxi, why are you asking him? What does he know about the profound mysteries of medicine?" Su Yunxi ignored Guo Yu Long and asked Chen Xuan again. Chen Xuan nodded sincerely, "Yunxi, he's right. Don't worry, I'm watching. Grandpa will be fine."
Su Yunxi nodded. "Heh heh," Guo Yu Long also sneered, "Just agreeing with others, what kind of skill is that? Pfft."
Old Master Su quickly said, "Divine Physician Lu, can my illness be treated? I've been feeling very unwell recently, especially the severe coughing at night. I can't fall asleep, and I can't sleep during the day. My old bones are about to fall apart from this."
"Old Master Su, rest assured, these are symptoms caused by pulmonary hypertension. They are somewhat difficult to treat elsewhere, but I have already mastered my Tai Chi Divine Needles. Three needles will be enough to resolve it." Lu Jian said with a smile. Although young, his demeanor was far from humble.
"Thank you, Divine Physician Lu." Upon hearing this, Old Master Su's face lit up with joy. He had heard of the great reputation of the Tai Chi Divine Needles and was surprised that Lu Jian, at such a young age, had already mastered the three-needle Tai Chi Divine Needles. Truly a young man of great promise!
Chen Xuan also nodded secretly. The Tai Chi Divine Needles could indeed resolve Old Master Su's condition, but he frowned. Could Lu Jian truly master the three-needle Tai Chi Divine Needles? It wasn't that Chen Xuan underestimated Lu Jian. After all, at the Medicine King's residence, Divine Physician Lu had only managed to master the four-needle Tai Chi Divine Needles under his guidance.
