Mr. Gu's little darling is incredibly cool!

Seeing how serious she was, the man raised an eyebrow. "Go ahead."

"Master, do you know about Behcet's disease?"

"of course."

Dan Li sensed his impatience, clenched her fists, and began to get to the point.

Is this disease truly incurable?

The man hummed in response, "What?"

"What if someone said they could cure that disease completely..."

Before Shan Li could finish speaking, the man said, "Impossible. I've studied medicine for decades, and I've never heard of anyone who can cure Behcet's disease."

If she hadn't gone to the Yuan family today, Shan Li would have nodded in agreement with the man's statement without hesitation.

However, she happened to see with her own eyes that someone could actually cure Behcet's disease, and that person was a country girl.

This made her question her own understanding.

But Master said it was impossible...

She frowned, thought for a moment, and then asked, "Master, are you sure?"

The man was displeased by her questioning tone. "Of course."

He had just finished speaking when he suddenly seemed to remember something, "No, I remember now."

Shan Li's breath hitched. "What?"

"There is one person who might be able to."

"Who?"

"The Divine Physician Kong Jun".

The man's tone was filled with awe, and upon hearing those four words, Shan Li's face drained of all color.

The Divine Physician Kong Jun.

Just the title of "miracle doctor" alone implies that someone without real skill would dare to call themselves a miracle doctor.

This shows how capable he is.

Anyone in the medical field who hears the name "Kong Jun" would feel a sense of awe and respect.

He appeared out of nowhere six years ago and became famous for curing a woman who was on the verge of death. However, the family was unwilling to reveal the miracle doctor's appearance or age, so there are different descriptions of him in the underworld.

In the following years, he would occasionally appear, and rumors would occasionally circulate that he had saved some patient with a rare and difficult disease. The medicines he refined were so popular that people were willing to spend a lot of money to snatch them up. In the fourth year, he wrote a book on alchemy and then disappeared without a trace.

There are many rumors, including that he died, and that he went into hiding in the mountains and stopped caring about worldly affairs.

Until the Taichu Rejuvenating Pill suddenly appeared a couple of years ago, many people said that the person who refined this medicine must be a descendant of the divine physician Kong Jun. In addition, the pill was indeed very effective, so this statement was basically confirmed.

"But wasn't he already... dead?"

Dan Li dared not utter the last three words, feeling it would be disrespectful to the divine physician Kong Jun.

The man hummed in agreement. "That's why I said no one can cure that disease." He paused for a moment, then continued, "Speaking of which, why are you asking this? Did something happen?"

Dan Li thought about it for a while, but still didn't know how to bring it up, so she didn't mention it.

"It's nothing. I just came across this similar disease while researching, and I was just curious to ask."

"I'm sorry to bother you, Master."

She stuck out her tongue, her tone slightly soft and coquettish.

Hearing the girl's soft voice, the man's brows relaxed. "It's alright. It's good to ask questions when you don't understand. The qualifying rounds are coming up soon, so get ready. Your master has high hopes for you."

Shan Li nodded and hung up the phone, remaining in a daze for a long time.

According to Master, only the divine physician Kong Jun can do it. So how did Lu Qingyun manage to do it?

Thinking of this, she suddenly got up and walked quickly to her bookshelf.

There was a box on top containing the prescriptions she had written. She took out one of them, took a picture of it with her phone, and sent it to her master.

Then she pursed her lips nervously.

-

Gu Zhai.

Lu Qingyun returned to her room, grabbed a change of clothes, and went to the bathroom.

Gu Jinming had just finished a video conference and glanced at the restroom out of the corner of his eye.

He lightly tapped his pale fingertips on the table, picked up his phone, and glanced at the message.

Several of the messages were from Tang Qin. He was in a meeting and didn't have time to check his phone.

Tang Qin: [Madam just went to Chengyuan Mansion. She didn't stay long; she just picked up the box and came out.]

Tang Qin: [It seems that Madam received a message from Miss Yuan midway through her journey, and went to the Yuan family again after leaving Chengyuan Mansion.]

Tang Qin: [Old Master Yuan has fallen ill with a strange disease, and the doctors we called in said it was incurable.]

Tang Qin: [I ran into Miss Shan at the Yuan family's house. She wasn't very nice to Madam. I wanted to help her argue back, but Madam wouldn't let me.]

Tang Qin: [Master Jin! The young mistress is simply a genius! Miss Shan said that Old Master Yuan's illness was incurable, and the young mistress immediately proved her wrong! How satisfying!]

[The box probably contained medical equipment, I'm guessing it was silver needles. After the young mistress examined Old Master Yuan, she looked unwell and almost collapsed, but she felt much better after drinking some glucose and sitting for a while.]

Tang Qin's detailed account allowed Gu Jinming to clearly understand what Lu Qingyun had done that afternoon.

Box?

Silver needle?

Even Shan Li said it couldn't be cured completely, but Lu Qingyun could. Could it be that the box contained the set of silver needles stolen from the Ouyang family?

Gu Jinming took a sip of water, his eyes filled with amusement, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly.

It seems I've married someone extraordinary.

"Squeak."

The bathroom door was pushed open, and Lu Qingyun walked out, holding a towel and drying her wet hair.

Upon seeing Gu Jinming, she naturally stepped forward and handed him a towel, saying, "Dry your hair."

Gu Jinming chuckled, "Grandpa, you've gotten used to me wiping you?"

"Otherwise, how could we live up to the name of our ancestors?"

Lu Qingyun moved a small stool and sat down in front of him, and thoughtfully brought him a hair dryer.

The power outlet isn't far away, so sitting here means I can enjoy the breeze.

Gu Jinming frowned slightly as he looked at her pale face. "Go sit on the sofa."

Ok?

Is this not possible?

Lu Qingyun gave him a strange look, but still got up and sat down on the sofa.

Gu Jinming quickly followed in his wheelchair.

Seeing that she was seated, Gu Jinming took a towel and dried her hair first. Once there was no more water dripping, he picked up a hairdryer and skillfully dried her hair.

Her technique was getting better and better, and Lu Qingyun squinted her eyes in satisfaction, "Hey."

Gu Jinming lazily lifted his eyelids. "Speak."

“If the Gu family goes bankrupt, you’ll definitely make money working at a hair salon; lots of people will come to you for a haircut.”

Gu Jinming: ...

Can't we hope for something good in him?

Should I thank you for your suggestion?

Gu Jinming licked his back teeth.

Lu Qingyun waved her hand magnanimously, "You're welcome."

Gu Jinming: ...

Wow, how come I never noticed before that she had such a sharp tongue?

"Don't worry, the Gu family is very wealthy. No matter how much you squander, they won't go bankrupt."

he whispered.

Lu Qingyun mumbled an "oh" and, with her last remaining consciousness, grabbed his sleeve, "Press my head again, it hurts."

What the hell are you pressing?

Gu Jinming had intended to ask her some questions while he was blow-drying her hair, but the little ungrateful girl just closed her eyes and fell asleep.

They even forced my head down!

He took a deep breath, and when he saw her pale face, his eyes softened little by little.

Forget it, I won't argue with her.
