t man's face in this situationGu Chi stared at the man before him with eyes like daggers, wishing he could burn a hole through his back."What's wrong" Seeing Gu Chi's icy gaze behind her, Cheng Ruo'er..."Yes, young master, I understand."
The butler replied with the utmost respect, and after a moment's hesitation, he couldn't help but add another sentence.
"But young master, I think Miss Xu is very young and doesn't look like she would be ill! What if..."
"Alright, alright, that's settled then."
Zhuo Hongling impatiently cut him off.
"Just rest assured, would I harm my own grandmother Besides her, I'll also invite other senior TCM doctors to come and treat her together. You don't have to worry about these things."
Zhuo Hongling's words finally eased the butler's mind. He let out a sigh of relief, while Zhuo Hongling on the phone was already impatiently hanging up and hugging the woman in his arms, leaning down to kiss her lips fiercely.
"Baby! I've finished everything you asked me to do. Now, how are you going to reward me"
At this moment, lying in Zhuo Hongling's arms, the woman with heavy makeup and a revealing outfit was none other than Xu Zuiying's arch-nemesis—Gu Weiwei.
Gu Weiwei leaned against Zhuo Hongling, as if boneless, and said in a coquettish voice.
"Young Master Zhuo, I'm all yours. What other rewards do you want"
As she talked, her hand had already reached the spot on Zhuo Hongling's chest.
After all, Gu Weiwei was a veteran who had been around in the entertainment industry for a long time. She was very skilled at dealing with men.
Zhuo Hongling reacted quickly to her teasing...
After all the absurdity, Zhuo Hongling fell into a deep sleep.
Gu Weiwei quietly walked out of the hotel room, dialing a phone number in the corridor. The name displayed on the note was Wei Qingyan.
The moment she answered the phone, she excitedly said.
"Hey, Qingyan! I've finished what you asked me to do. There won't be any problems at all."
A cold voice rang out from the phone.
"Great! Don't worry, once this is done, I'll speak highly of you in front of the Zhuo family."
When Gu Weiwei heard Wei Qingyan's words, she was so excited that she almost jumped up.
She knew very well that a young master like Zhuo Hongling would never take her seriously. After all, with her status and identity, she was not worthy of the Zhuo family.
But if she had Wei Qingyan's support, everything would be completely different.
"Qing Yan, just rest assured, leave this matter to me, I will definitely satisfy you."
After the phone call ended, Gu Weiwei glared ahead with a menacing look, letting out a cold laugh.
"Xu Zui Ning, this time, you won't even know how you die!"
Before long, it was the weekend. As promised, someone from the Zhuo family came to school to pick up Xu Zui Ning.
The Zhu family's old house is located in the most bustling and prosperous area of the city center, where every inch of land is worth a fortune, and its area is extremely large.
The car slowly drove into the old house from the gate and stopped at the front door of the central villa.
After Xu Zui'ning got out of the car, she saw the housekeeper come to greet her.
The butler was a very elderly man, his hair white as snow. He walked over and spoke with great respect.
"Miss Xu, hello. I'm Zhuo Fu's steward. You can just call me Steward Zhuo. Please follow me."
Having said that, Zhu Guanjia led Xu Zui'ning toward the villa hall. From afar, Xu Zui'ning could hear heated discussions coming from inside the hall.
“I think this old woman’s headache is caused by wind-heat, which explains why she has nightmares, sweats, and flushed face.”
"No! That's definitely not right! I think this old woman's headache is caused by a cold poison! Otherwise, how could she have a high fever and a runny nose"
Xu Zui Ning paused slightly, listening to the discussions around her, and turned to look at the butler walking beside her.
"It seems your household has also invited other TCM practitioners."
The butler, faced with Xu Zui Ning's pointed question, showed no awkwardness but instead smiled politely and naturally, explaining.
"As our matriarch, Madam Zhu, is of esteemed status, besides Ms. Xu, we have also invited two other highly respected senior Chinese medicine practitioners in the field. This way, you can all learn from each other."
Xu Zui Ning heard his words, and her heart immediately became clear.
Before, she was puzzled, how could the Zhuo family invite her, a medical student, to treat their elderly grandmother! It turned out they were well-prepared. Besides her, they had also invited another TCM doctor for consultation.
Xu Zui Ning didn't get angry at all, instead she nodded in agreement and followed Zhuo Butler into the villa living room.
Stepping into the living room, one immediately saw two elderly acupuncturists with white hair. One was wearing a traditional Hanfu, while the other wore a long robe. At this moment, the two were discussing the patient's condition with great excitement.
The two of them were loudly arguing about the reason for Old Madam Zhuo's headache, but unexpectedly, Zhuo Butler suddenly led another person in. They all turned their heads to look at Xu Zui Ning standing beside Zhuo Butler.
"Huh Who's this"
Let me introduce myself.
Then, Zhuo Guanjia stepped back and politely introduced both parties to each other.
"This is Dean Chu, the dean of the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine. The one beside him is Mr. Qin, the president of our Xuanqing TCM Association. And the one next to me is Ms. Xu Zhuoning, a first-year student at the Faculty of Medicine of Xuanqing University."
"Are you a medical student"
Mr. Qin, dressed in a long gown, looked at Xu Zui with suspicion. He then turned his head and asked the butler.
"Today, we came here to treat Old Madam Zhu's headache, didn't we Why did you bring a student with you"
The butler explained to the old gentleman very politely.
"Oh, I see. Miss Xu is one of the doctors specially invited by our young master Zhuo to consult here. She also wants to learn from you two."
"Collating medical skills"
Mr. Zhuo's words made Old Mr. Qin think his ears were malfunctioning.
“Are you saying that this little yellow-haired girl is going to come with us to see Old Mrs. Zhuo How can this be!”
Compared to Mr. Qin's surprise, the Chu physician could be said to have a rather bad temper. He slammed heavily on the tea table beside him, so angry he almost jumped up.
"Just a little yellow-haired girl, what medical skills could she possibly have Are you kidding us!"
In the eyes of such senior, experienced Chinese medicine practitioners, having a young girl who hasn't even graduated from medical school challenge them to a duel of medical skills was simply an insult.
Xu Zui'ning, who stood aside, had clearly anticipated this scene. Her face was calm.
Standing beside Xu Zui Ning, the head steward of the Zhuo family also remained composed, continuing to speak with utmost respect.
"Both gentlemen, this is also Mr. Zhuo's intention, and we hope you can understand." 。Xu Zui Ning heard the first half of the sentence and almost jumped out of her skin, but after hearing that there was no danger to life, she finally breathed a sigh of relief. 。On her way here, she...
