The man turned his head to look around, searching for the Divine Doctor, but the mont he saw Mu Jinyu, he directly overlooked him.
After all, Mu Jinyu was indeed too young. Although he had an extraordinary temperant, he did not appear at all like a Divine Doctor, which led the man to assu that even if he wasn't soone related to i Yinxue, he must be a descendant of that Divine Doctor.
But...
Where was that Divine Doctor?!
Why didn't he see a trace of him anywhere?
He was incredibly surprised in his heart.
i Yinxue, facing the Family mbers of the Xu family, didn't have her usual cold and aloof expression on her face. Instead, she looked just like the girl next door as she introduced with a sweet smile, "Uncle Yuan, he is the Divine Doctor I invited."
She extended her hand, pointing at Mu Jinyu next to her, and used the word 'invited' instead of 'yelled', intentionally highlighting Mu Jinyu's extraordinary identity.
Upon hearing i Yinxue's introduction and looking at Mu Jinyu's appearance and temperant, the faces of Jiang Yuan and the others imdiately darkened.
"Little Xue, you're not joking with us, are you?!" The second son of the Jiang Family, Jiang Chen, forced a smile and asked i Yinxue.
Jiang Huaing, the sole daughter of the Jiang Family, a charming woman in her thirties, also looked at Mu Jinyu with skeptical eyes before turning back to i Yinxue, waiting for her response.
i Yinxue knew they would react like this and kept a faint smile on her face as she shook her head and said, "Of course not, how could I dare to joke with you at such a critical ti?"
After a pause, she explained, "You should all know that I was set up by a rival a few days ago and got into a car accident, almost dying on the road. At that ti, I encountered a Divine Doctor who, with a few needles, brought back from the brink, allowing to erge unscathed."
Although i Yinxue didn't directly say that the Divine Doctor was Mu Jinyu, the People of the Jiang Family understood from her words that the Divine Doctor who had miraculously saved her life was indeed Mu Jinyu standing next to her.
The People of the Jiang Family also knew about that incident and understood that i Yinxue was a reliable person. And so, they began looking at Mu Jinyu with a bit of anticipation in their eyes.
After all, they understood the saying, "Don't judge a book by its cover."
i Yinxue continued, "The other day, one of my subordinates, Wang Zhengbiao, Ah-Biao, Uncle Yuan, Auntie ng, you must have t him before? Seeing that I was unhard and protected by more bodyguards, making it hard for her to attack in secret, my rival decided to target Ah-Biao. A bullet hit right where his heart is, hanging his life by a thread. At that ti, Shen Changchun, a renowned doctor from Jiangnan Province, felt it was difficult to treat him. In the end, it was that Divine Doctor who took action, a few needles down, and he returned from the dead..."
As the People of the Jiang Family listened to i Yinxue's personal experiences, their eyes gradually brightened, and their gaze towards Mu Jinyu beca increasingly excited and expectant.
After i Yinxue finished speaking, she pointed her hand once more towards Mu Jinyu and said, "You should have guessed by now who the Divine Doctor that saved my life those few tis is, right? Yes, it's Mu Jinyu, Doctor Mu, the very one I invited here special today."
In fact, strictly speaking, i Yinxue had no familial relationship with the Jiang Family, but the Head of the Jiang Family, Jiang Wangchuan, had once been a benefactor to i Yinxue.
He had helped her in many ways, and when she decided to go straight, he had significantly supported her.
Without this support, i Yinxue, as a woman, would not have been able to stand firm in the harsh world of River City's Jianghu. She wouldn't have been able to successfully go straight and transform into the chairwoman of the Xueyin Group, and she wouldn't have been known as the Red Bloodstained Plum.
In earlier years, in the ruthless Jianghu where the strong prey on the weak, she might have been devoured to the point where not even bones remained.
Therefore, now that Elder Jiang, Jiang Wangchuan, was in trouble, she could not just sit back and ignore it. Even if it might distance her relationship with Mu Jinyu, she still chose to invite him over.
Seeing i Yinxue treat the matter so seriously, Jiang Yuan and the others significantly raised Mu Jinyu's standing in their minds and asked with a smile, "Then, Doctor Mu, may we ask, who is your master?"
They felt that Mu Jinyu, at such a young age, had such exquisite dical skills, mysterious like a ghost or god, that his master must be even more formidable. Although it might not be possible to invite his master over, if he could tell them which renowned national divine doctor his master was, they would feel much more at ease about Mu Jinyu.
Mu Jinyu said lazily, "Mu Shao'ai."
"Mu Shao'ai?!"
Upon hearing this, several mbers of the Jiang Family were at first stunned, then they furrowed their brows in contemplation, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't recall any famous divine doctor in the country nad Mu Shao'ai.
Actually, this was quite normal. Mu Jinyu's master was a recluse by nature, a hidden high-ranking individual. If Xu Tianzheng hadn't had the good luck to encounter him and received a token from him, even Xu Zhixin wouldn't have been able to get past the Mountain Protection Array of Yinlong Mountain on the day he arrived, let alone invite him out.
But of this, the mbers of the Xu Family were not very aware. Only Xu Tianzheng knew a little bit. Although the Jiang Family was one of the Four Great Families of River City, they didn't have this kind of fate and naturally didn't know the reputation of Young Master Mu.
'Mu Shao'ai? Could it be so obscure Barefoot Doctor with great dical skills?' the people of the Jiang Family thought to themselves. Follow current novᴇls on novel※fire
Afterward, Jiang Yuan gave an embarrassed smile and said, "I apologize for my ignorance; I've never heard of your master's na. May I know from which dical school in the country did Young divine doctor graduate?"
When he had first inquired about who Mu Jinyu's master was, he could say it was to know his teacher and give himself more confidence. But now this question seed different, it sounded almost like an interrogation.
It was as if he considered Mu Jinyu to be a doctor of unknown origin; before treating his father, it was necessary to clear up his background.
i Yinxue's expression changed slightly upon hearing Jiang Yuan's casual question.
She knew Mu Jinyu had a temper, and with Jiang Yuan asking like this, it was possible that he would get angry right away, so she quickly looked at Mu Jinyu with a pitiable gaze.
Mu Jinyu was no fool; he naturally picked up on the interrogative tone in Jiang Yuan's words and the intent to check his background, and his expression imdiately grew dark.
He wanted to say, "Do you think I'm so eager to treat you?"
But upon seeing i Yinxue's pitiable eyes and rembering his promise to her, Mu Jinyu suppressed the anger welling up inside and said impatiently, "No, I never went to school."
"Never went to school?!"
Upon hearing this, mbers of the Jiang Family exchanged glances, their eyes becoming skeptical, no longer as bright as before.
A master they'd never heard of, and not a graduate from any famous dical school at ho or abroad—could such a doctor really treat their father?
"Then do you have a dical practice license?" Jiang Chen asked with a slightly stern face, not giving up yet, also out of consideration for i Yinxue.
Mu Jinyu put down what he was doing; he had been specially invited by i Yinxue to treat their venerable patriarch, only to be interrogated in such a manner. One can imagine how much anger he was holding back.
But because he had promised i Yinxue that he would repay yesterday's kindness, he could only suppress his anger and said impatiently, "No!"
"No?!"
Upon hearing this, the people of the Jiang Family exclaid in astonished doubt.
