After being forced into a marriage of convenience, a master of metaphysics manipulates a cold and al

"Yes, I brought it!"

Shen Lu didn't understand why the old man was so excited, but she still nodded happily.

The delivery of the son-in-law's life-extending elixir saved Mi Zizhen's life, and this was arguably the proudest moment the little girl had ever experienced.

"Great! I've finally found you! Old Chen was being so secretive and wouldn't tell me anything about you. I was just wondering where to look for you!"

Dean Li clapped his hands heavily, becoming increasingly excited.

"Dean Li..."

Seeing that the high-ranking hospital director was paying so much attention to Shen Lu, the woman finally began to have a bad feeling.

She was present earlier and knew about Shen Lu delivering the medicine.

But unlike those doctors, she never believed that Mi Zi's survival was due to the medicine.

It was all because Mi Zi was incredibly lucky, plus the doctors were exceptionally skilled.

As for those ridiculous life-extending elixirs, only a fool would believe that.

But Dean Li's reaction makes it seem like he believes in such absurd things.

Is he getting senile?

"Miss Kang, I have something important to discuss. Please tell me later."

Before the woman surnamed Kang could finish speaking, Dean Li waved his hand impatiently to interrupt her.

He hates people who don't know what's important and like to interrupt. He only lets them go because they are a patient's family member; otherwise, he would have had security kick them out long ago.

As the director of Jingzhou Municipal Hospital, he was not only a member of the system, but also held a high position, so he was naturally not afraid of this guy who showed off his money everywhere.

"I……"

Being ignored by Dean Li, the woman surnamed Kang was filled with shame and indignation, but she dared not retaliate. She could only give the four bodyguards a look and temporarily suppress her anger.

What do you want from me?

Shen Lu looked at Dean Li with a puzzled expression, her big eyes blinking, making her look even more adorable and innocent.

"I'm not looking for you, I'm looking for your son-in-law. He was the one who kept saying that the life-extending elixir was made by your son-in-law, is that right?"

Dean Li said with a smile that he really wanted to pat the cute little girl's head, but since the two were not familiar with each other, it wouldn't be good if he scared her.

"Yes, yes, that's right!"

Shen Lu nodded, her beautiful big eyes curving into crescent shapes.

She feels genuinely happy whenever someone praises her son-in-law.

"That's great! Where's your son-in-law? Could you give him a call? I'd like to invite him to dinner..."

Dean Li hurriedly said, and at this moment, the old dean, who was always known for his composure, actually seemed very impatient.

There was no other way; the medicine Shen Lu sent was simply too incredibly effective.

He could guarantee with his decades of medical experience that without that medicine, Mi Zizhen would definitely not have survived, let alone been out of danger so quickly!

Those young doctors may not understand what this means, but they know how much of an impact it will have on the entire medical community if this drug can be mass-produced!

It is no exaggeration to say that it can "save the world"!

Many patients, just one breath short, do not survive.

With that miraculous medicine, this tragedy could be completely avoided!

To Dean Li's disappointment, the cute little girl suddenly shook her head after listening.

Judging from her expression, she had rejected him.

But he couldn't possibly bully the weak and force them to do as he instructed.

Just as he was about to give up and think of another way to find the "magical son-in-law," Lulu, the clever one, suddenly said with a puzzled look, "The son-in-law is right here, there's no need to call."

"...What the heck? It's right here?"

Dean Li was completely bewildered. Just as he was about to turn around to see who else was in the room, the woman surnamed Kang couldn't hold back any longer and quickly said, "Dean Li, don't be fooled by this brat. My brother was able to pull through because of his good physical condition, and that so-called life-extending elixir is completely useless..."

The woman surnamed Kang wasn't stupid. From Dean Li's reaction, she could tell that the medicine that brat had sent was probably problematic.

And the more this is the case, the less she can allow both sides to have their way.

Otherwise, with Dean Li protecting her, it would be difficult for her to get revenge for that slap.

"Shut up! As the hospital director, I'm ordering you to get out of the ward immediately and stop disturbing the patients' rest! Otherwise, don't blame me for calling the police!"

Before the woman surnamed Kang could finish speaking, Dean Li flew into a rage and pointed at her, launching into a furious rebuke.

He had already given this stupid woman a lot of face, but she just wouldn't take it, so there was no need for him to continue being polite.

Compared to that miraculous medicine, even if the Admiral were here, Dean Li wouldn't tolerate it, let alone a woman who just has some wealth!

"Dean Li, you..."

Seeing how impolite Dean Li was to her, the woman surnamed Kang was so angry she almost fainted.

But since this was their territory, she didn't dare to act recklessly even if she wanted to throw a tantrum. In the end, she could only give Ye Bai and Shen Lu a deep look with venomous eyes before storming off with her bodyguards.

She wasn't there to accompany and take care of Mi Zizhen; she was just there to confirm whether the other person was truly not going to die.

"Hello Dean Li, I am Lulu's son-in-law. I prescribed that medicine..."

At this moment, Ye Bai, who had been watching the commotion from the sidelines for a while, finally came over and greeted them with a smile.

He didn't know the old man's purpose in seeking him out, or what his relationship was with the woman surnamed Kang, so naturally he couldn't reveal his identity directly.

In fact, even at the very end, he still didn't want to be exposed.

Because from the old man's gleaming eyes, he sensed that nothing good was coming.

Unsolicited kindness is usually a sign of ulterior motives or theft.

But what could he do? He had a silly girl named Lulu at home. He had been trying to wink at her, but the clever girl still betrayed him without hesitation.

In this situation, it's no longer possible to pretend to be stupid.

"It's you? You're the son-in-law who concocted the divine medicine? You're way too young..."

When the person they had been waiting for finally appeared, Dean Li was stunned and dumbfounded.

There was no way around it; Ye Bai's age was simply too shocking.

Although the term "son-in-law" implies that the other party is not too old, Dean Li guessed that he must be at least in his thirties or forties.

Traditional Chinese medicine is different from Western medicine; it's impossible to quickly learn it and become proficient in it.

Even without decades of clinical medical experience, one may not be able to reach a qualified level, let alone become a "miracle doctor"!

Even those with exceptional talent usually don't achieve real success until they are at least in their thirties or forties.

But how old is Ye Bai?

He looks to be in his early twenties. How could such a young man be a miracle doctor?

Could he be one of those spoiled brats who stole their elders' medicine and go around bragging about how capable they are?
