[Please Bookmark, Please Recomnd] Hearing Li Chen’s “startling statent”, Moo Hee was stunned, eyes wide and jaw hanging open.
“What, how do you know that?”
Seeing the elder’s reaction, Li Chen already knew that his previous guess was correct.
“My master casually taught so Traditional Chinese dicine, so I just know a little!”
After hearing Li Chen’s words, Moo Hee’s jaw almost dropped in shock.
To be able to tell there was a problem with his left atrium at a glance, and even to identify when the injury occurred?
Even a state-recognized dical Saint might not achieve that much, would they?
But here, a master had only casually taught, and his disciple claid to only know a little.
Wasn’t this absurdly unbelievable?
Seeing Li Chen hit the nail on the head, Moo Xi montarily set aside her prejudice against him and hurriedly explained.
“It’s like this, thirty years ago, my grandfather participated in the counter-offensive war against Vietnam, serving as the deputy commander.
In the Laoshan front line, my grandfather led from the front and was hit by shrapnel from artillery.
Later, he was lucky to survive, but he suffered severe damage to the left side of his chest, leaving a serious lingering illness.”
“For these past twenty-plus years, my grandfather has visited hundreds of well-known doctors across the country, but all of them were powerless.
He could only take special drugs from overseas to barely maintain his health!”
After hearing Moo Xi’s explanation, Li Chen ca to a sudden understanding and nodded.
“Mr.
Li, since you could see my grandfather’s injury with one look, do you have a way to treat it?”
While speaking, Moo Xi stared unblinkingly at Li Chen.
Her bright eyes were full of fervent expectation.
Li Chen’s gaze wandered a bit and then he said, “Actually, it’s not impossible to treat the old master’s illness.
However…”
When he said “however,” he suddenly stopped, wearing a playful smile as he looked toward Moo Xi and the elder.
He, the Donghua Immortal Emperor, might not be a bad person, but he definitely couldn’t be considered a good person either.
Saving soone is possible!
But to save soone without any compensation, that’s not possible.
Moo Xi, being a highly intelligent girl, could hear the implied suggestion in Li Chen’s words.
“Our Moo Family has so influence in Jiangnan, even across the entirety of Huaxia.
As long as Mr.
Li, you can cure my grandfather’s illness, we can agree to anything you want!”
Seeing Moo Xi’s quick-wittedness, Li Chen raised his eyebrows and asked, “Really?”
Moo Xi nodded vigorously like a pecking chicken, “Yes, really!”
Li Chen thought for a mont, extended three fingers, and declared, “Three conditions!”
Moo Xi eagerly asked, “Which three conditions?”
Li Chen gave Moo Xi a faint smile, casually pointing at her, “I want you…”
Before Li Chen’s words could land, Elder Moo Hee shook his head like a rattle drum.
“No, no, that’s absolutely not possible!”
“Cough, cough, cough…”
Angered, his heart started to experience wrenching pain again, and he coughed several tis in a row.
“Grandpa, don’t get agitated!”
Moo Xi hurriedly stepped forward to gently pat the elder’s back.
Moo Hee held Moo Xi’s hand, drained of strength, “Little Xi, I’m already eighty-three this year, practically buried in the yellow earth.
But you’re still young, and you must not delay your lifeti of happiness for the sake of my old bones!”
A look of indignant anger crossed Moo Xi’s pretty face as she glared at Li Chen with wide, almond-shaped eyes, “Mr.
Li, isn’t your condition a bit too much?
Besides, matters of the heart cannot be forced.
Don’t you agree?
Could we change the condition?”
Li Chen pursed his lips, “What are you thinking, I’m just interested in that Jade Pendant around your neck, as for you…”
As he spoke, Li Chen paused briefly, his eyes glancing at the ‘mountains’ below Moo Xi’s neck, and shook his head with disapproval, “Too small, not interested!”
