The three people had just walked into an old mansion when Ye Chen caught a strong scent.
Ye Chen quickly recognized it as the smell of herbs.
Smelling this, Ye Chen frowned slightly.
As they entered the room, Ye Chen saw a frail old man lying on the bed.
The old manРІР‚в„ўs face was pale, and his complexion was very poor.
Despite his poor condition, when he saw Ye Chen, the old man still waved Su Wanyi over.
"Wanyi, how did you get here so quickly? DidnРІР‚в„ўt you say there was no flight until tomorrow?" Su Hong asked with a smile.
"Grandfather, I came on a friendРІР‚в„ўs private plane," Su Wanyi replied.
At this moment, the old manРІР‚в„ўs gaze fell on Ye Chen.
"Oh, and who is this?" Su Hong asked.
Su Wanyi smiled and said, "This is my friend, Ye Chen."
Ye Chen approached the bed and said, "Hello, Grandfather."
After greeting the old man, because he needed to rest, the two people left the room.
At this moment, a middle-aged man entered and his expression darkened upon seeing Ye Chen.
"Wanyi, whatРІР‚в„ўs going on? How could you bring a stranger back, and even to the old mansion? DonРІР‚в„ўt you understand the rules?"
Su Wanyi responded, "Second Uncle, Ye Chen is my friend. If not for him, I wouldnРІР‚в„ўt have made it back so soon."
"Hmph, your grandfather is so seriously ill, and you still have the mind to bring your boyfriend back. ItРІР‚в„ўs outrageous," a girl about the same age as Su Wanyi said coldly.
Hearing the girlРІР‚в„ўs voice, Ye Chen frowned.
The one speaking was a sharp-tongued girl, Su WanyiРІР‚в„ўs cousin.
"I am not," Su Wanyi defended herself.
"Still claiming youРІР‚в„ўre not? Do you think everyone here is blind? You brought him to the house, what more is there to say?" Snorted the second aunt sarcastically.
Su WanyiРІР‚в„ўs face flushed with anger.
The reason her family moved to Modu back then was to avoid being with the second uncleРІР‚в„ўs family.
Sharp-tongued and always looking for trouble.
"Kids these days, truly inconsiderate. ItРІР‚в„ўs a shame Grandfather cherished her so much back then."
"You all," Su WanyiРІР‚в„ўs eyes started tearing up.
ItРІР‚в„ўs true, Grandfather did favor her the most, but she cared about him the most too.
Otherwise, she wouldnРІР‚в„ўt have left a crucial meeting to return to Kyoto.
But these people were so unreasonable that Su Wanyi felt at a loss for words.
"I think the inconsiderate ones are your family," Ye Chen suddenly spoke up.
"What did you say?" Su WanyiРІР‚в„ўs second uncle, Su Zhen, gave a cold stare.
Ye Chen retorted coldly, "Grandfather needs to rest, but your family is here yelling and shouting. Who do you think is being inconsiderate?"
"Who do you think you are? What business is our familyРІР‚в„ўs situation to you?" Su WanyiРІР‚в„ўs second aunt, Liu Yun, scolded.
"Right, someone get this punk out of here."
"IРІР‚в„ўd like to see who dares. Ye Chen is my friend, and donРІР‚в„ўt forget, IРІР‚в„ўm the eldest daughter of the Su Family," stated Su Wanyi angrily, standing protectively in front of Ye Chen.
"Su Wanyi, how dare you side with an outsider!" Su Zhen shouted.
Just then, a coughing sound came from the bedroom, "Are you trying to rush me to my grave?"
Upon hearing the elderРІР‚в„ўs voice, the crowd fell silent.
Su Yue said, "Grandfather, youРІР‚в„ўre ill, and Wanyi brought a stranger here. How inconsiderate. My parents criticized her, and she didnРІР‚в„ўt like it."
"Hmph, WanyiРІР‚в„ўs friend is someone I asked her to bring. Are you planning to throw me out too?"
Hearing the old manРІР‚в„ўs words, Su ZhenРІР‚в„ўs family fell silent.
Su Wanyi felt a warmth in her heart, knowing her grandfather was protecting her.
Ye Chen spoke, "Grandfather, I was going to wait until you were well-rested to check on your health. Since you canРІР‚в„ўt sleep, let me examine you now."
Su Hong was taken aback, "You can treat illnesses?"
Ye Chen nodded, "I know a thing or two."
Only then did Su Wanyi remember, of course, in her haste, she forgot Ye Chen was a doctor and quite skilled at that.
Su Zhen snorted, "What a joke, a young boy like you can treat illnesses? Our prestigious Su Family is getting treated by a street quack, arenРІР‚в„ўt we making ourselves a laughingstock."
Ye Chen sneered, "No one else can cure the elderРІР‚в„ўs illness but me. Are you afraid I might actually cure him?"
Hearing Ye ChenРІР‚в„ўs words, Su ZhenРІР‚в„ўs expression changed, "Nonsense."
Su Wanyi added, "Grandfather, Ye Chen is highly skilled, and heРІР‚в„ўs a Guest Professor at RenРІР‚в„ўai Hospital."
Guest Professor at RenРІР‚в„ўai Hospital?
Hearing Su Wanyi, everyone was astounded.
Su Hong nodded, "Alright, since thatРІР‚в„ўs the case, please go ahead, young friend."
Ye Chen smiled, "As WanyiРІР‚в„ўs friend, itРІР‚в„ўs my duty."
Su Hong said, "Then I rely on you. This illness of mine is really painful."
Ye Chen nodded and said, "Let me take your pulse first, Elder."
Seeing the elder genuinely allow Ye Chen to treat him, Su ZhenРІР‚в„ўs family wore grim looks.
If Ye Chen really cured the elder, it would be detrimental to their plans.
Moreover, they could clearly see Elder Su taking a liking to Ye Chen.
After checking the pulse for a moment, Ye Chen said, "Grandfather, you must have suffered a head injury recently."
Su Hong was taken aback and shook his head, "No, I havenРІР‚в„ўt."
Off to the side, Su Zhen mocked, "Boy, stop pretending, you didnРІР‚в„ўt guess correctly, did you?"
Su Hong suddenly recalled, "Oh, a few days ago, I did bump my head on the window sill while watering the plants. I temporarily blacked out but it passed quickly. Is that what you meant?"
Ye Chen nodded, "Exactly, your headaches are due to this collision, causing a blood clot in the head, blocking circulation, leading to dizziness, nausea, and loss of appetite."
Listening to Ye Chen, Su Hong was somewhat surprised.
"Indeed, IРІР‚в„ўve experienced all these symptoms you mentioned."
Ye Chen continued, "Moreover, the doctor prescribed traditional medicine for treating a cold, which was not addressing the real issue, causing your condition to worsen. ItРІР‚в„ўs a good thing you met me, otherwise, Elder, youРІР‚в„ўd be in danger."
"Nonsense, the doctor we hired is a famous traditional Chinese medicine practitioner in Kyoto." Su ZhenРІР‚в„ўs face changed.
Ye Chen sneered, "Either heРІР‚в„ўs incompetent or..."
He didnРІР‚в„ўt finish, but his meaning was clear.
Elder Su glanced at Su Zhen but said nothing, then turned to Ye Chen, "Young friend, I owe you my thanks. Can my illness be treated?"
Now understanding Ye ChenРІР‚в„ўs medical skill, Elder Su became increasingly polite to him.
Ye Chen nodded, "Of course it can, this is a minor issue for me."
Upon hearing Ye Chen, Su WanyiРІР‚в„ўs face lit up with joy.
"Great, then please start treating Grandfather."
Ye Chen smiled, "Alright, IРІР‚в„ўll prescribe some medicine. With regular doses, ElderРІР‚в„ўs condition will improve quickly."
