After about five minutes, Old Master Wang's left hand suddenly lifted slightly.

Seeing this, the Wang Family members all cried out in surprise.

"As expected of Divine Doctor Jiang—her medical skills are incredible."

"Wonderful! Old Master has finally recovered."

"Divine Doctor Jiang is still the best. Some people sure talked a big game, only to make complete fools of themselves."

The middle-aged man who had bet with Ye Chen earlier let out a heavy snort!

Ye Chen curled his lips, his face full of disdain.

The Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate were indeed formidable.

But his Taiyi Divine Needle was the number one needling technique under heaven!

That little girl Jiang Xiaoyue was still worlds apart from him!

Once she became his woman someday, he would not mind passing this supreme art on to her!

After pulling the silver needles from Old Master Wang's hand one by one, Jiang Xiaoyue asked, "Old Master Wang, how do you feel now?"

"Much better... I can speak now too."

Though Old Master Wang's voice still trembled somewhat, he was already far more fluent than before!

"That's good." Jiang Xiaoyue nodded and instructed him.

"I'll prescribe a formula for you shortly. Take it on time for three months; this illness will still need to be nursed back to health slowly."

With that, she took out paper and a pen from her small case and began writing the prescription.

"Kid surnamed Ye, what else do you have to say now?"

At that moment, the middle-aged man from earlier stepped forward.

Staring at Ye Chen, he said, "I won't make things difficult for you. Making you crawl out would tarnish the Wang Family's dignity! But you must 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 the time. If Old Master is fine after three minutes, I'll even kneel and apologize!"

"You're still struggling on death's door, huh? Fine."

The middle-aged man took out his phone and started timing him. He truly could not stand this arrogant fellow any longer.

The Wang Family members also glared at the guy in anger.

Once the three minutes were up, they would make this brat regret showing his face!

The moment Jiang Xiaoyue heard Ye Chen's words, she understood.

This was exactly the same as what Tang Yu's inner voice had said!

She quickly took Old Master Wang's wrist and examined him again.

Sure enough, some stagnant blood was beginning to slowly gather together!

Previously, considering how frail Old Master Wang's body was, she had planned to use Chinese medicine to regulate him gradually!

But now that the situation had changed, she could only switch treatment plans.

"Brother Tang Yu, disinfect another silver needle for me."

She raised her head and instructed Tang Yu.

"Okay."

Tang Yu nodded, looking somewhat puzzled.

[What does this girl need another silver needle for? Has she already found the problem?]

Hearing Tang Yu's inner voice, a smile appeared at the corner of Jiang Xiaoyue's lips.

Shouldn't I be thanking you for that, my Brother Tang Yu?

If you had not told me, how would I have known?

The silver needle in her hand pierced Old Master Wang's Waiqiu Acupoint on his calf with flawless precision.

After that needle went in, a large patch of Old Master Wang's calf suddenly turned red!

Jiang Xiaoyue swiftly placed several more needles, and soon stagnant blood began continuously flowing out from Old Master Wang's calf.

"Towel."

Jiang Xiaoyue held out her hand.

Tang Yu hurriedly handed her a towel, and she used it to wipe away Old Master Wang's stagnant blood.

When Ye Chen saw Jiang Xiaoyue's actions, he was completely dumbfounded.

So he himself had been the clown?

If you think this book is good, remember to add it to your bookshelf so you don't lose it next time!

There was no way this woman should have discovered this hidden condition!

If her medical skills were truly that brilliant, she should have completed the treatment in one go from the start!

This made no sense!

He truly could not figure it out now. How had things turned out like this?

When the middle-aged man standing behind him saw that the three minutes were up, his expression darkened as he said,

"Divine Doctor Ye, the three minutes are up. Isn't it time for you to fulfill your promise?"

Ye Chen was instantly embarrassed beyond measure.

He had come today intending to put on the airs of an expert, conquer the Wang Family, and then conquer a beauty while he was at it.

Now, he truly could not get off the stage.

As the Dragon King, he had never bowed his head to anyone in his life!

Kneeling to apologize was absolutely impossible!

But then his eyes shifted. Jiang Xiaoyue would definitely become his woman in the future.

Lowering his head to his wife was still barely acceptable.

So he put on a carefree smile and said,

"Haha, I never expected Suhang to have a true master like Divine Doctor Jiang. I really failed to recognize greatness today. I apologize to Divine Doctor Jiang here."

"The Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate truly live up to their reputation. In my view, they are no worse than my Taiyi Divine Needle."

After saying that, he held out one palm.

A silver needle floated above his hand—it was the Taiyi Divine Needle's supreme art of wielding needles with qi!

Seeing this display, the Wang Family members all showed expressions of amazement.

[Here it comes, here it comes. Swiftly changing the subject, huh?]

[But Xiaoyue really is obsessed with medicine. Now that he's shown off his Taiyi Divine Needle, Xiaoyue will probably get curious about him. Sigh, as expected of you, Dragon King—you've always been good at picking up girls.]

Tang Yu's sarcastic inner voice rang out at once.

A flicker of irritation crossed Jiang Xiaoyue's face. This guy wanted to pursue her?

She had been listening to Brother Tang Yu ramble on for ages.

About how she had a favorable impression of this Ye Chen, how she would become part of his harem, and so on.

But at this moment, her impression of Ye Chen could not have been worse.

He had medical skill but no medical ethics. If he was treating an illness, he should treat it properly, yet he was using a patient as a wager!

Someone like that was trash! And he thought he was worthy of pursuing her?

She deliberately exclaimed in admiration, "That's so impressive! Then you must keep your word, right? Didn't you say you were going to kneel and apologize?"

What the hell?

Tang Yu, who had been watching the drama unfold, was dumbstruck on the spot.

[Holy shit, Xiaoyue, that's not right. What kind of absurd move is this?]

[He's already shown off the Taiyi Divine Needle. Shouldn't you two be discussing medical arts and deepening your relationship?]

At that moment, fury blazed within Ye Chen's heart.

His emotions were so intense that the silver needle in his hand could not withstand his internal force and twisted on the spot!

A woman dared to humiliate him like this?

If he had not taken a fancy to her and her family's network of connections, she would already be a corpse!

At that moment, Wang Rulong stepped out to smooth things over. "Haha, it was just a joke. Don't take it seriously, everyone. You are both master physicians of your generation; you should be learning from each other through discussion."

"Yes, it was just a joke. No need to take it seriously."

The middle-aged man from earlier also looked much less tense and stepped forward to mediate.

They had seen just now that this arrogant young man did indeed possess some real skill.

By giving him some face now, it would be easier to ask for his help if they needed him in the future.

Only then did Ye Chen's expression ease somewhat. Smiling, he said,

"I was also speaking in anger just now. Still, I did offend you today. If Miss Jiang does not mind, how about we have a simple dinner together tonight so I can make amends?"

[Haha, the Dragon King who keeps his word—truly worthy of you.]

[If a villain lost a bet and refused to honor it, getting crippled by you would be getting off lightly.]

[When picking up girls fails, you come up with another scheme. You're a Teddy that's gained consciousness, a walking jackhammer. Fine, I surrender!]

Tang Yu rolled his eyes beside them, unleashing full firepower in his internal mockery.

"I mind." Jiang Xiaoyue snorted and rejected him decisively.

After listening to Brother Tang Yu mutter for so long, she already knew exactly what kind of thing he was!

Ye Chen was both embarrassed and furious, but fortunately, someone pushed the door open and entered just then, breaking the awkward atmosphere.

Wang Yixue walked in from outside, a trace of coldness in her eyes.
