Qi Shan was bursting with energy. That very evening, he brought the tuition fee and led his daughter to pay Elder Physician Dong a visit, asking him to take her as a student and let them slip in through the back door.
Elder Physician Dong had dealt with Qi Shan quite often.
For the past year or so, while Shen Tang had led her team away to fight, Qi Shan had been in charge of the medical clinic's budget. And whenever Qi Shan was injured because of Shen Tang, Elder Physician Dong had treated him. So when Qi Shan showed up at his door, his first thought was that Qi Shan had been hurt again.
"Is something troubling you, Chief Clerk?"
Qi Miao followed obediently behind Qi Shan, secretly observing Elder Physician Dong. She was startled by how young he looked. Before they came, her father had said that the famous doctor they were visiting was a master physician, the finest doctor under heaven. Qi Miao had imagined someone in their seventies or eighties.
She had never expected him to be a white-haired young man.
Although Qi Miao had seen few men and couldn't readily compare their looks, she could tell that the white-haired young man had regular features, fair and delicate skin, and a clear, refined appearance. His complexion was so flawless that even the noblewomen who used expensive creams every day couldn't achieve such results. If one ignored his hair color, he looked no older than twenty-five or twenty-six. A master physician... and so young?
Or perhaps he had some secret to preserving his looks?
Qi Miao noticed the years settled in his eyes and leaned more toward the latter possibility. She just didn't know whether he would share his skincare secrets with outsiders. Of course, she didn't
