About five minutes later, Old Master Wang's left hand suddenly lifted partway.
The Wang Family members all cried out in astonishment at the sight.
"As expected of Divine Doctor Jiang! Her medical skills are incredible."
"Wonderful! The old master has finally recovered."
"Divine Doctor Jiang really is amazing. Some people sure know how to boast, only to make fools of themselves."
The middle-aged man who had made the bet with Ye Chen let out a heavy snort!
Ye Chen tugged at the corner of his mouth, his face full of disdain.
The Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate was indeed impressive.
But his Taiyi Divine Needle was the best needle technique under heaven!
This little girl called Jiang Xiaoyue still had a long way to go before she could compare with him!
Once she became his woman, he wouldn't mind teaching her one of his peerless skills!
After Jiang Xiaoyue pulled the silver needles from Old Master Wang's hand one by one, she asked, "Old Master Wang, how are you feeling now?"
"Much better... I can speak now, too."
Old Master Wang's voice still trembled a little, but he was already speaking much more fluently than before!
"That's good." Jiang Xiaoyue nodded and reminded him, "I'll write you a prescription in a moment. Take it regularly for three months. After that, you'll still need to recover gradually."
With that, she pulled paper and a pen from her small case and began writing out the prescription.
"Ye, you little brat, what do you have to say now?"
The middle-aged man from earlier stepped forward.
He stared at Ye Chen. "I won't make you crawl out. That would hurt the Wang Family's dignity! But you have to apologize to Divine Doctor Jiang!"
"Oh?"
Ye Chen sneered and held up three fingers.
"Are you sure he's cured? How about this: I'll count down. If the old master is fine three minutes from now, I'll kneel and apologize."
"You're still putting up a last-ditch struggle, huh? Fine."
The middle-aged man pulled out his phone and started the timer. He truly couldn't stand this arrogant fellow any longer.
The Wang Family members also glared at Ye Chen, their faces full of anger.
The moment those three minutes were up, they'd make sure the brat paid for it!
When Jiang Xiaoyue heard Ye Chen's words, she immediately understood.
Everything had happened just as Brother Tang Yu's inner thoughts had said!
She quickly took Old Master Wang's wrist and examined him again.
Sure enough, the stagnant blood was beginning to gather together!
She had previously considered how weak the old master was and planned to slowly nurse him back to health with Chinese medicine.
But now that the situation had changed, she had no choice but to switch treatment plans.
"Brother Tang Yu, disinfect another silver needle for me."
She looked up and instructed Tang Yu.
"Sure."
Tang Yu nodded, a little puzzled.
What does this girl need another silver needle for? Has she figured out what the problem is?
Hearing Tang Yu's inner thoughts, a smile appeared at the corner of Jiang Xiaoyue's mouth.
I should be thanking you for that, Brother Tang Yu.
If you hadn't told me, how would I have known?
She precisely drove the silver needle in her hand into Waiqiu Acupoint on the old master's calf.
After that one needle, a large patch on Old Master Wang's calf suddenly turned red!
Jiang Xiaoyue swiftly inserted several more needles, and soon stagnant blood began to seep continuously from the old master's calf.
"Towel."
Jiang Xiaoyue held out her hand.
Tang Yu hurriedly passed her a towel. She took it and began wiping the stagnant blood from the old master.
But when Ye Chen saw what Jiang Xiaoyue was doing, he was completely dumbfounded.
So I'm the clown after all?
There was no way this woman could have discovered this hidden condition!
If her medical skills really were that impressive, she should have treated him completely from the start!
It made no sense!
He genuinely couldn't understand how things had come to this.
The middle-aged man standing behind him saw that the three minutes were up and his expression darkened.
"Divine Doctor Ye, the three minutes are up. Shouldn't you honor your promise?"
Ye Chen was utterly embarrassed.
He had come today intending to put on an expert act and win over the Wang Family, then win over a beautiful woman, too.
Now he was completely stuck.
As the Dragon King, he had never bowed his head to anyone in his life!
Kneeling to apologize was out of the question!
But then his eyes shifted. Jiang Xiaoyue would definitely become his woman one day.
Bowing his head a little to his wife was something he could just barely accept.
So he put on a carefree smile and said, "Hahaha, I had no idea Suhang had a true master like Divine Doctor Jiang. I was blind today. I apologize to Divine Doctor Jiang."
"The Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate truly live up to their reputation. In my eyes, they're no worse than my Taiyi Divine Needle."
With that, he held out one hand.
A silver needle floated above his palm. It was the Taiyi Divine Needle's unique skill of guiding a needle with one's inner energy!
The Wang Family members all looked on in amazement.
Here it comes, here it comes. Changing the subject in a hurry, huh?
But Xiaoyue really is obsessed with medicine. Once he shows off his Taiyi Divine Needle, she'll probably get curious about him. Sigh, as expected of you, Dragon King. You've always known how to pick up girls.
Tang Yu's sarcastic inner voice rang out.
A trace of anger flashed across Jiang Xiaoyue's face. This guy wants to hit on me?
She had been listening to Brother Tang Yu for ages.
Apparently, she was supposed to have feelings for this Ye Chen and become part of his harem or something.
But at this moment, her impression of Ye Chen was simply awful.
He had medical skills but no medical ethics. He should have just treated the patient, instead of using him to make a bet!
A person like that was trash! And he thought he could pursue her?
She deliberately exclaimed, "How impressive! Then you'll keep your word, right? Weren't you going to kneel and apologize?"
"Σ(°口°?)"
Tang Yu, who had been watching the drama unfold, was completely dumbfounded.
What the hell, Xiaoyue? What kind of bizarre move is this?
He just showed off the Taiyi Divine Needle! Weren't you supposed to compare medical skills and grow closer?
Ye Chen's fury was blazing at that moment.
His emotions were so agitated that the silver needle in his hand couldn't withstand his inner energy and warped on the spot!
How dare a woman humiliate him like this?
If he hadn't taken a liking to her and her family's connections, she would already be a corpse!
Just then, Wang Rulong stepped in to smooth things over. "Hahaha, it was just a joke. Don't take it seriously, everyone. You're both renowned doctors. You should learn from each other and compare notes."
"That's right. There's no need to take a joke seriously."
The middle-aged man's expression had softened as well, and he came forward to smooth things over.
They had seen it for themselves: this arrogant young man really did have some talent.
It was worth putting in a good word for him. If they needed his help in the future, they could ask him.
Only then did Ye Chen's expression soften a little. He smiled and said, "I was angry when I said that just now. But I really did offend you today. If Miss Jiang doesn't mind, let me treat you to a simple dinner tonight as an apology."
Hahaha, true to his word, the True Dragon King. As expected of you.
If a villain lost a bet and refused to honor it, you'd break every bone in his body.
You failed to pick her up, so now you're trying another move. You're a teddy bear turned spirit, a walking jackhammer. Fine, I give up!
Tang Yu rolled his eyes, unleashing his full arsenal of mockery in his thoughts.
"I mind." Jiang Xiaoyue snorted and rejected him flatly.
After listening to Brother Tang Yu mutter for so long, she already knew what kind of person Ye Chen was!
Ye Chen was both embarrassed and furious, but just then someone pushed open the door, breaking the awkward atmosphere.
Wang Yixue walked in from outside, a trace of coldness in her eyes.
