Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
At the entrance of the hospital, Ye Xiaofei received a call from Li Fengnian.
“Mr. Ye, my father’s body has almost recovered. I want to thank you in person and invite you to our Li Family as a guest. I hope you can give me the honor of doing so.”
“No problem,” Ye Xiaofei said happily.
“Then, where are you? I’ll send someone to pick you up immediately.”
“I’m at the First Hospital.”
After hanging up, Ye Xiaofei said to Ning Xiaoyu, “Xiaoyu, come with me tonight.”
Ning Xiaoyu’s face lit up. Ye Xiaofei was willing to bring her out to meet his friends. He really didn’t treat her as an outsider. However, after a moment of hesitation, Ning Xiaoyu said, “I don’t know your friends, and… I’m just a little girl. I’m afraid I’ll embarrass you.”
Ye Xiaofei said, “What’s there to lose face about? I’m just bringing you to see the world. I’m just letting everyone know that you’re my sister.”
“Then… Then I’ll go with you.” Ning Xiaoyu smiled sweetly.
At around five o’clock in the afternoon, Ning Xiaoyu and Ye Xiaofei saw the Li Family’s car waiting at the entrance of the hospital.
Ning Xiaoyu didn’t know much about cars, but she could tell that the car was very impressive. There was also a young man standing at the door.
“Hello, Mr. Ye! My name is Li Zihang, and my father is Li Fengnian. My father wanted to pick you up personally, but he really couldn’t leave, so he specially sent me to pick up Mr. Ye.”
Ye Xiaofei smiled and said, “Don’t worry about it. Let’s go.”
Li Zihang immediately opened the car door, and Ye Xiaofei pulled Ning Xiaoyu into the car.
Ning Xiaoyu was extremely nervous. Li Zihang was obviously a rich young master. Ning Xiaoyu was just a poor girl, yet Ye Xiaofei actually asked someone to pick her up. Moreover, it was such a grand car.
The most important thing was that Li Zihang was so polite to Ye Xiaofei, which made her feel an indescribable pride in her heart.
Li Zihang was very good at talking. In the car, he thanked Ye Xiaofei for saving his grandfather’s life. He even said that everyone in the Li Family was still thinking about the matter after the incident and that Ye Xiaofei’s medical skills were amazing.
Ye Xiaofei did not take those words seriously, but Ning Xiaoyu listened with relish, her eyes shining.
Half an hour later, the car arrived at the Li Family’s courtyard.
After the car entered, it drove for another two minutes before stopping at the entrance of a villa.
There were several people standing at the door, men and women, old and young. They were all there to welcome Ye Xiaofei.
“Mr. Ye, welcome!” Li Fengnian came up and enthusiastically held Ye Xiaofei’s hand.
Ye Xiaofei smiled and said, “I’m flattered by such a grand welcome.”
“Why, you’re the great benefactor of the Li Family! There couldn’t be a welcome too grand for you.” Li Fengnian laughed heartily. “This beautiful little girl is…”
“This is my sister, Ning Xiaoyu.”
Li Fengnian immediately praised, “She’s really a heavenly beauty, and she’s so pure and cute!”
Ning Xiaoyu’s face was red, and she was tongue-tied. The scene had completely frightened her.
When everyone entered the living room, Old Man Li got up from the couch and said, “I heard them say that the person who saved me was a young man. I didn’t believe it until now.”
Ye Xiaofei said, “You’re too polite, Old Man Li. Why don’t I check your pulse first? Last time, I found that you had some other diseases, but I was too busy saving you to treat them. Today, we can treat them together.”
The Li Family’s attitude made Ye Xiaofei feel very comfortable. He couldn’t treat all the prominent families as enemies in Ning City. He definitely needed friends, and the Li Family fit his criteria.
“That’s great!” Li Fengnian immediately shouted excitedly.
Ye Xiaofei checked Old Man Li’s pulse and said after ten seconds, “You have a cyst in your liver, and your lungs have some problems due to years of smoking. Acupuncture can be used to treat it directly. As for the problem of bone thinning due to old age, you need some medicine to recover. I’ll give you a prescription later.”
The Li Family members were stunned for a moment. Then, Old Man Li said excitedly, “You’re indeed a divine doctor. Just taking my pulse enabled you to give a more detailed diagnosis than the hospital.”
Ye Xiaofei smiled and said, “Then, I’ll do acupuncture on you now.”
Old Man Li said,” How could we have you do that? We invited you to thank you, yet you started to treat me right away. Why don’t we have a meal and rest first?”
Ye Xiaofei said, “It’s okay. It’s just a matter of minutes. Just lie on the couch. It’s very simple.”
Old Man Li lay on the couch as instructed. Ye Xiaofei had specially asked Zheng Zhenguo for a box of silver needles at the hospital just now. At this moment, he picked out a few needles and inserted them into Old Man Li’s acupuncture points through his clothes.
Two to three minutes later, Ye Xiaofei retracted the needles and said, “All right.”
Old Man Li sat up and took a few deep breaths. He said joyfully, “My breathing’s gotten so smooth. He’s really a divine doctor!”
The Li Family members grew even more excited. The old man was the stabilizing pillar of the Li Family. His health meant that the Li Family could continue to grow stronger.
Ye Xiaofei asked for a pen and paper again and wrote a prescription. “I’ve already explained in detail the time and heat required for brewing in the prescription. It’s best to find someone who knows traditional medicine to do it. If there’s any error in the time and heat, the effect will be greatly reduced.”
“All right! All right! We’ll definitely not miss out on anything.”
For a family like the Li Family, finding a good traditional medicine doctor was definitely not a problem.
The Old Man Li took a box from someone and smiled at Ning Xiaoyu. “I wasn’t prepared for this meeting. Here’s a bracelet for you to wear.”
“Ah! I’m good!” Ning Xiaoyu waved her hands frantically.
Ye Xiaofei directly took it over and said, “It’s a gift. Just take it.”
As he spoke, Ye Xiaofei opened the box and looked at the green bracelet inside. “This is jade, right?”
Old Man Li smiled and said, “Yes, imperial jade.”
“It looks high-quality.” Ye Xiaofei looked at it a few more times. It was his first time seeing jade, but judging from the color and the crystal texture, he knew that it was definitely not an ordinary grade. It was definitely not cheap either. It might even be worth millions.
“It’s just a small gift. Don’t mention it.” Old Man Li smiled.
“I thank you on behalf of my sister.” Ye Xiaofei grabbed Ning Xiaoyu’s wrist and put the bracelet on her. He then nodded and said, “Not bad at all, and it’s just right.”
In front of everyone, Ning Xiaoyu let Ye Xiaofei hold her hand. She was both shy and happy. Her face was red as a tomato..
