Wang Family.
Ever since Jiang Xiaoyue came to the Wang Family to treat Old Master Wang last time, the old man's health had gradually recovered.
After finishing his meal today, Old Master Wang was holding a calligraphy brush, preparing to practice his writing.
He hadn't even finished the first character when the brush suddenly slipped from his hand and fell to the floor.
Immediately after, the old man clutched his chest and slumped into his chair, his body trembling violently.
The caregiver nearby was terrified; after helping him onto the bed, they hurriedly called for the Wang Family's private doctor.
Soon, the private doctor arrived to examine Old Master Wang.
Upon receiving the news, the members of the Wang Family rushed over as well.
Seeing the old man lying on the bed with a pale face, they were all incredibly anxious.
The old man had only just recovered a few days ago; how could he have fallen ill again?
Once the examination was finished, Wang Yixue hurriedly asked, "Doctor Zhou, how is my grandfather?"
The doctor's expression was one of confusion as he shook his head.
"Old Master Wang's condition is quite dangerous; his organs are beginning to fail, but I cannot identify the specific cause. I suggest we get the divine doctor Jiang here immediately."
He was considered a fairly famous expert in the country, but this was the first time he had ever encountered such symptoms.
It was clear the body was suffering from such severe issues, yet he couldn't find the root cause anywhere.
Wang Yixue immediately took out her phone to call Jiang Xiaoyue.
After confirming her location, she quickly arranged for the Wang Family's private helicopter to go and pick her up.
When Jiang Xiaoyue arrived, she carried her little bag and hurried over, beginning to examine Old Master Wang's body.
After checking for quite a while, a look of confusion inevitably appeared on her face.
The old man's current condition was extremely dire, yet she couldn't figure out where the problem lay?
"Little Sister Xiaoyue, what exactly is going on with my grandfather?"
Seeing the bewildered look on Jiang Xiaoyue's face, Wang Yixue felt a sense of panic rising in her heart.
The members of the Wang Family standing nearby were equally panicked.
A Wang Family with the Old Master and a Wang Family without him were two completely different things.
"I can't identify the problem, but the old man's current condition is indeed critical. If it isn't resolved within a day, I'm afraid that..."
Jiang Xiaoyue's expression was quite grim.
She hadn't expected that even with her medical skills, she wouldn't even be able to diagnose the issue.
This was the first time she had ever encountered such a thorny problem!
Hearing Jiang Xiaoyue's words, everyone's faces turned ashen.
If even someone with medical skills as superb as Jiang Xiaoyue couldn't find the problem, what else could be done?
Standing at the very back of the crowd, Wang Rulong felt a flicker of relief in his eyes.
Ever since Jiang Xiaoyue arrived, he had been incredibly nervous.
He was terrified that she might discover something, but fortunately, she couldn't solve it.
Last time, he had intended to cooperate with Young Master Ye to freeze the Wang Family's liquid assets, hoping to drive Wang Yixue out of the center of power so he could take her place.
As it turned out, for some reason, the plan had failed!
Wang Yixue not only detected the clues but also turned the tables on Young Master Ye.
That had scared him quite a bit at the time.
Later, seeing that Wang Yixue had no intention of causing him trouble, he assumed it was just a coincidence and that his identity hadn't been exposed.
As for the scene today, it was naturally his own doing!
After seeing the plan fail, Young Master Ye had come up with another scheme for him!
He told him to strike directly at the Old Master!
That way, once the Old Master was gone, the issue of the successor would have to be decided!
According to family rules, the power of the family should ultimately rest in the hands of a male heir!
Without the Old Master to protect her, Wang Yixue's power would be impossible to maintain!
Grandfather, don't blame me for being heartless; it's just that you were too biased.
If you think this book is good, please remember to add it to your bookshelf so you don't lose it next time.
Wang Rulong sighed inwardly, feeling a twinge of guilt.
But compared to power, what did that matter?
"What should we do now? Should we ask the old divine doctor Jiang to come and try?"
Wang Yixue asked with a bitter tone.
Jiang Xiaoyue shook her head and said.
"I can't diagnose it, and I'm afraid even if my grandfather were here, it wouldn't be much better. This situation is quite troublesome, but there is one person who could help me."
"Who?"
"Brother Tang Yu," Jiang Xiaoyue replied.
Last time at the Tang Family, she had overheard Tang Yu's inner thoughts and discovered that he had actually mastered the Qingnang Heavenly Scripture and reached the Realm of Divine Entry!
Since she couldn't find the problem now, she could only rely on him to use the Realm of Divine Entry to see exactly what was wrong with Old Master Wang's body.
Wang Yixue hadn't expected Jiang Xiaoyue to ask her to invite Tang Yu over.
Since it concerned her grandfather's life and safety, she didn't ask any further questions, took out her phone, and called Tang Yu.
Tang Yu was currently in his office playing video games with Chi Yin.
He had noticed that ever since he let this person stay here to play games and report data every day, she had been working quite diligently.
From the start of the workday until she clocked out, she barely moved from her seat.
She was, however, quite diligent when it came to ordering takeout.
At least three cups of milk tea a day plus all sorts of junk food.
It was as if she were a total couch potato!
But Tang Yu knew very well that this was definitely the woman's superb acting!
She was merely trying to use her "diligent work" to numb him so she could achieve her goal of stealing the data.
Tang Yu didn't care about that.
Since he had already tampered with all the data anyway, she could steal as much as she wanted.
After receiving the call from Wang Yixue, Tang Yu picked up his phone and said, "What's wrong?"
"Where are you right now? I'll send a helicopter to pick you up. My grandfather is fading fast; you need to come over immediately."
Wang Yixue's urgent and aggrieved voice came from the other end of the line.
In this most vulnerable moment, she truly wanted to see Tang Yu.
"I'm at the company. Just have the helicopter pick me up on the office building rooftop."
Tang Yu didn't dawdle; he dropped his controller, hurried out of the office, and went to the top floor to wait.
The fact that Old Master Wang had suddenly fallen ill caught Tang Yu by surprise.
According to the original plot, Old Master Wang remained quite healthy until the very end of the story.
After waiting a while, the helicopter soon landed nearby.
Tang Yu quickly climbed into the helicopter and began to ponder where things had gone wrong.
After several consecutive plot points had gone awry, he had to admit that the plot of this book had completely collapsed.
When the helicopter arrived at the Wang Family estate, Tang Yu had just stepped off when he saw Wang Yixue waiting for him with red-rimmed eyes.
"It's alright, Old Master Wang is a man of great fortune; he won't have any issues."
Tang Yu quickly comforted her in a soft voice.
"Okay, please hurry inside and take a look."
Wang Yixue grabbed Tang Yu's hand and pulled him toward the house.
When they entered, Jiang Xiaoyue was in the middle of performing acupuncture on Old Master Wang.
She couldn't find the source of the problem, but it wasn't difficult for her to alleviate the symptoms for Old Master Wang.
The eyes of everyone in the Wang Family converged on Tang Yu.
They also wanted to know why Jiang Xiaoyue had called Tang Yu over at a time like this; he didn't know anything about medicine.
"What happened to the old master?"
Tang Yu, still unaware of the situation, walked over and asked Jiang Xiaoyue.
"I can't figure out what's wrong with the old master right now, so I plan to try treating him with the Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate first, and I need you to help me as an assistant."
