C18 He's a Cunning Man
For some reason, Su Beichen was involved in a battle. He couldn't help but feel helpless.
More importantly, he didn't have any other choice.
If he lost, Shen Yue would have to get engaged to this playboy called Yann Wenhao. If he won, Yann Wenhao would get out of Shen's Compound.
He carefully calculated and found that whether he lost or won, it did not seem to have much to do with him.
However, he still wanted to win. On one hand, he was absolutely confident that he could cure old master Shen. On the other hand, he did not want to watch Shen Yue get engaged to this playboy.
When Yann Wenhao heard Shen Yue agree to his bet, he immediately smiled and quickly ordered Godly Doctor Lu to treat old master Shen.
Godly Doctor Lu was almost sixty years old and was a very famous doctor in Jinghua City. This time, if it wasn't for the face of Deputy Mayor Yan and the mayor, he would never come to a small city like Yanbei City to see a doctor.
What made him even angrier was that he had become the bargaining chip in someone else's bet. This was ridiculous.
However, as long as he could cure old master Shen this time, not only would he get a large sum of money, he would also make the Yan family owe him a favor. Why not?
Furthermore, he had a nephew who was a civil servant in Yanbei City. He had been depressed for the past few years. If he had the care of Deputy Mayor Yan, he would definitely be able to make a meteoric rise.
Thinking of this, Godly Doctor Lu glanced at Su Beichen and revealed a contemptuous smile.
He muttered in his heart, "I, lu Qing, have worked as unknown TCM doctor for dozens of years. I have treated countless patients. How can a young boy like him compete with me in medical skills?"
Su Beichen did not get angry because of Godly Doctor Lu's contempt. After giving Godly Doctor Lu a seat, he modestly made a "please" gesture.
"Humph, overestimating yourself."
Godly Doctor Lu sat on the side of the bed with an arrogant attitude. He put old master Shen's arm flat, then put his index and middle fingers together and put them on old master Shen's pulse.
Godly Doctor Lu's eyes were closed, like a meditating old monk. Just by looking at his posture, he was much better than Su Beichen.
The butler, Butler Hee, stood at the back. He nodded his head in satisfaction when he saw that Godly Doctor Lu had the demeanor of a godly doctor.
Yann Wenhao and Shen Yue, on the other hand, were staring intently at Godly Doctor Lu taking the pulse. The former had a proud look on his face, while the latter had a nervous look on his face.
One had to know that the outcome of this medical competition would directly affect her life. She did not want to be engaged to this hedonistic son who only knew how to eat, drink, and have fun.
The more Shen Yue thought about it, the more nervous she became. She turned her head and glared at Su Beichen as if to say, "If you lose this time, I will definitely not forgive you!"
Su Beichen looked at her murderous gaze and only smiled faintly. He did not take it to heart.
Godly Doctor Lu took her pulse and muttered to himself as if he was memorizing a book, "The pulse is not obvious. It is a sunken pulse. The pulse is weak. It is a hollow pulse..."
After a while, he suddenly stopped talking, a layer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
"Strange. How can old master Shen's pulse be so disordered? There is no rhythm to speak of. Moreover, the meridians seem to be congested. It is not smooth at all."
Everyone held their breaths when they heard Godly Doctor Lu's words. They were afraid that they would disturb him from taking his pulse.
At this moment, Godly Doctor Lu was complaining in his heart. He had been a doctor for so many years, but he had never seen such messy pulse.
About half an hour later, Godly Doctor Lu finally let go of old master Shen's pulse.
"Godly Doctor Lu, how is my father's condition?" Shen Yue asked anxiously.
Godly Doctor Lu wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and did not know how to answer. He glanced at Su Beichen and suddenly thought of something.
