Chapter 495: Chapter 494: Set Forth Conditions

Liu Ye felt some shame upon hearing Zhang Xiaoshan’s words.

Her already flushed face became even redder.

"Dr. Zhang, I was unaware of the situation before, which is why I harbored doubts about you. As a fellow doctor, you should understand that I did not mean to make things difficult for you; according to conventional medical theory, my judgment was entirely correct."

"Regardless, I was wrong about the incident before. I shouldn’t have doubted you just because you’re a village doctor. I sincerely apologize to you and ask for your forgiveness."

As she spoke, Liu Ye also gave Zhang Xiaoshan a deep bow.

This left Zhang Xiaoshan baffled.

He had thought that someone as expert as Liu Ye would be rather arrogant, but to his surprise, she readily lowered her stance to apologize to him.

It seemed this woman was much easier to talk to than he had thought.

How others treat him is how he treats them.

In essence, Liu Ye’s assessment was not wrong; if today Zhang Xiaoshan hadn’t used True Qi and Qi Blood Powder, he wouldn’t have been able to cure Sun Dazhi.

"Forget it,"

Zhang Xiaoshan said, waving his hand.

"You didn’t do it on purpose. I won’t hold it against you. However, the method I used to treat Sun Dazhi is a secret family technique. Before my grandfather passed away, he made me promise not to divulge it, so I’m sorry."

He casually made up an excuse. After all, he couldn’t reveal the inheritance from Dragon Girl, could he?

"Your grandfather?"

"Family medical technique?"

"Do you mean you used a traditional Chinese medicine approach?"

Liu Ye became even more curious on the spot.

"Normally, this kind of external injury is treated with Western medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine tends to focus on internal adjustment, and the healing process is very slow. You cured Sun Dazhi within an hour; is that even possible?"

"Dr. Zhang, are you intentionally deceiving me?"

"This matter is very serious. Even if you don’t wish to divulge the truth, please don’t mislead me."

Liu Ye spoke with a serious expression.

Zhang Xiaoshan smiled and said.

"The art of Chinese medicine is profound and has been passed down for thousands of years. What you understand now as Chinese medicine is just an incomplete version, which is why you have some misunderstandings. However, in some rural areas, the complete tradition of Chinese medicine still exists, and its effectiveness is more than ten times stronger than those incomplete versions. What’s so impossible about that?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Ye felt it made a lot of sense.

"Dr. Zhang, then, if I don’t try to steal your family’s medical techniques, can I just know the simple process you used to save Sun Dazhi?"

"All you need to do is tell me the process."

At this moment, Liu Ye’s interest was immense, and she was persistently inquisitive.

Zhang Xiaoshan felt a headache coming on.

Isn’t Liu Ye a supreme expert? Why isn’t she playing by the rules?

Aren’t authoritative experts supposed to deny any wrongdoing, no matter what? Yet here Liu Ye was, lowering her stance to that of a humble student begging to learn.

But then, every field has its dregs, as well as a rare few with determination who are truly devoted to scholarly research.

Liu Ye was clearly the latter sort of person.

"Hmm..."

Zhang Xiaoshan was still hesitant.

Liu Ye spoke again with determination in her voice.

"Dr. Zhang, trust me, I will absolutely not divulge anything you tell me. I’m simply keen to understand the underlying principles, otherwise, I won’t be able to sleep."

"If you tell me, I will remember your kindness, and should an opportunity arise, I will certainly repay you."

"I’m not hiding this from you, my father holds a high position in the provincial Medical Administration. You will definitely find my connections useful in the future."

"Besides, many high-ranking officials owe me favors. If I ask for their help, they would give me face."

"Today, just tell me the process, and whenever you ask for help later on, I will not refuse."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaoshan’s expression changed.

The Provincial Medical Administration?

That role was quite key.

And with Liu Ye’s medical skills and connections, her network was naturally very strong.

If he could form a good relationship with Liu Ye, there would certainly be opportunities for him to use it in the future.

"What if I don’t tell you?"

"Would you use your network to take revenge on me?"

Zhang Xiaoshan asked Liu Ye teasingly with a smile.

Liu Ye firmly replied,

"Dr. Zhang, you are underestimating me. I, Liu Ye, am devoted to medical research and find such matters extremely distasteful. To be honest, I’ve never used even my own father’s influence."

"Even if you don’t tell me, I definitely won’t harm you."

"However, I will keep following you, continuously asking you, until you tell me."

"Hehe,"

Zhang Xiaoshan chuckled.

This woman sure was straightforward.

By the looks of it, she probably really had plans to follow him for a lifetime.

"Fine, then I’ll tell you."

Zhang Xiaoshan took out a small medicine bottle from his bosom.

He poured out a pill of "Qi Blood Powder" and handed it to Liu Ye.

"You’re curious about how I managed to restore Sun Dazhi’s organs? It’s because of this."

"Hmm?"

Liu Ye eagerly took it, carefully holding it in her palm and scrutinizing it closely.
