Finally, after almost forcing Su Qinglan to explain every single detail about that female’s birth process, the old healer... no, her suddenly appeared troubleso grandfather looked like he had completely forgotten his age.
The more he listened, the brighter his old eyes beca.
When Su Qinglan carefully explained how she had checked that female’s breathing, corrected the fetus’s position, and carefully helped her deliver the baby, the old healer suddenly slapped his thigh so loudly that the entire room jumped.
PA!
Su Qinglan flinched hard.
"Good!" the old healer shouted excitedly. "Wonderful! Amazing!"
His beard was practically trembling from excitent while he looked at Su Qinglan like she was the greatest treasure in the world.
"My successor has already surpassed her master before even learning anything!" he declared proudly while laughing loudly. "Hahaha! This old man’s na will finally shine gloriously through future generations!"
Su Qinglan: "..."
Her throat was already dry after talking for so long.
At that mont, Hu Yan silently walked over and handed her a bowl of water. His eyes softened slightly seeing her tired expression.
Su Qinglan imdiately gave him a sweet grateful smile before drinking the water in one gulp.
anwhile, the old healer was still emotionally patting his own thigh while muttering excitedly to himself.
"Too talented... truly too talented..."
Then suddenly he turned toward Wang Mulan proudly.
"See?!" he shouted. "This granddaughter is completely different from you!"
Wang Mulan helplessly covered her forehead.
"Uncle Ye..."
"You don’t understand dicine at all!" the old healer continued rcilessly. "Back then, when I asked you to separate herbs, you almost mixed sleeping grass with poisonous roots!"
Su Mingxuan instantly coughed into his fist to hide his laughter.
Even Xuan Long lazily lowered his head slightly because the corners of his lips were twitching.
The old healer completely ignored everyone before lovingly patting Su Qinglan’s head.
"Really good," he praised proudly. "Master did not even have to teach you anything, yet you already made my na famous!"
Su Qinglan smiled stiffly on the surface. But internally, she was already thinking seriously. How exactly could she escape from this sudden master-apprentice relationship?
They had not even spent one full day together.
How did she suddenly beco his official successor already?
But before she could think further, suddenly...
Growl.
Growl growl.
The cubs could not endure anymore.
The entire day they had been separated from their mother. First she had fallen unconscious; then everyone surrounded her nonstop after she woke up.
Even when they ca here, they were ignored by everyone... They still could not properly hug her because this strange old man had occupied their mother the entire ti.
Now the cubs were finally angry.
Before the old healer could continue praising his "genius successor," the three little cubs suddenly squeezed themselves aggressively between him and Su Qinglan.
Their tiny furry bodies puffed up proudly while crossing their tiny paws like guards protecting their mother.
The old healer was instantly stunned. Then he slowly looked down at the three cubs.
Then back at Su Qinglan.
Then back at the cubs again.
"These are yours?" he asked blankly.
Su Qinglan nodded helplessly. Imdiately, the old healer’s eyes widened again.
"So this old man already has great-grandsons too?!"
His voice sounded both shocked and excited. Before anyone could react, the old healer suddenly bent down and directly picked up the fattest middle cub from the ground.
Coincidentally...
It was Xiao Er.
The little tiger cub was instantly stunned. His four fluffy paws flailed wildly in the air as he suddenly found himself lifted without warning.
"Raaawr!"
He imdiately bared his tiny teeth furiously at the old healer.
The old healer was completely unbothered. Instead, he held Xiao Er higher and squinted seriously at his face like he was examining so rare treasure.
Su Qinglan imdiately rubbed her forehead helplessly.
"Xiao Er," she sighed, "don’t bare your teeth. He is your great-grandfather. You have to show respect."
The little tiger cub instantly paused. But even then, his tiny face still looked unconvinced. So what if this old man is his great-grandfather? He only wants his mother. He did not want so random old man.
anwhile, the old healer suddenly narrowed his eyes while staring deeply into Xiao Er’s round tiger eyes.
Then his expression slowly beca serious.
"I can see it..." he muttered mysteriously.
Everyone: "..."
The old healer suddenly nodded firmly.
"Yes. Very wise eyes."
Su Qinglan suddenly had a terrible feeling. Sure enough, the next second...
"This cub has talent!" the old healer declared loudly. "I can already see his future potential to beco a great healer!"
Xiao Shi froze.
Su Qinglan froze.
Hu Yan froze.
Even Wang Mulan silently looked away; she thought, if Uncle Ye truly had a way to find a talented person, he wouldn’t have wasted so many years on her.
Then the old healer proudly announced,
"He will beco my second apprentice!"
The entire room instantly turned silent.
Xiao Er: "???"
The little tiger cub completely did not understand what was happening.
anwhile, Xiao San and Xiao Yi imdiately reacted with extre survival instincts.
The mont they heard the word "apprentice," Xiao San instantly buried himself inside Xuan Long’s clothes so deeply that only half his pointed tail remained visible.
He clearly hoped the old healer would completely forget his existence.
anwhile, Xiao Yi imdiately squeezed himself into Hu Yan’s arms, desperately hiding his head under his father’s arm.
Only his round fluffy butt was still sticking outside.
Both little cubs silently looked toward their miserable brother with deep sympathy.
Their eyes practically scread.
Brother... good luck.
Xiao Er still looked completely dumbfounded while hanging in the old healer’s hands.
Healing?
Apprentice?
What was that?
Could it be eaten?
anwhile, Su Qinglan finally could not endure anymore and burst into laughter. Her shoulders shook nonstop while looking at her son’s confused little face.
Her on fate was already miserable enough. Now even her son had beco the chosen victim of this troubleso old healer.
What kind of tragic inheritance was this?
Now both mother and son have to struggle through this phase.
