The Beautiful Boss's Personal Bodyguard -
Chapter 101
Chapter 101: Chapter 101
With the aging and retreat of Tang Zhongshan, the next generation’s Tang Guoqing carried on the family’s mantle with excellence. Not a single person in Tianhe City dared to underestimate the family that only boasted two sons, largely because the Tang Family, although few in number, were all about quality.
Tang Guoqing once accompanied Old Tang on a visit to the Tan Family. At that time, after seeing Tang Guoqing, Tan Yaozong said to Tang Zhongshan, "The Tang Family tree is mighty indeed!"
On one hand, he dissuaded the guests from visiting, while on the other, Ye Tian was still busily occupied.
"The doctor has arrived!"
Tang Guoqing intended to step forward and stop the inconsiderate Ye Tian, but upon hearing Aunt Liu’s voice, he hastily made way for the elderly traditional Chinese doctor, carrying a medicine box, to approach Old Master Tang’s bedside.
"This is..."
Ye Tian had seen this elderly traditional doctor before; it was the same doctor who had treated Old Master Tang the first time he visited the Tang household. His surname seemed to be Liu.
Tang Guoqing walked over and said to the still busily working Ye Tian, "You stop first, let Dr. Liu diagnose."
Ye Tian looked up, his hands ceasing their movements, exactly at the position of the heart. "Did you bring silver needles?"
Dr. Liu nodded his head.
"Hand me your silver needles. You can’t cure Old Master Tang’s ailment."
His tone was light, yet more arrogant than the word arrogance itself.
By this time, the unrelated individuals in the study had already left, leaving only people from the Tang and Tan families. Hearing Ye Tian’s words, the elderly doctor was stunned, his medicine box resting on the bed, not even opened yet.
"Ye Tian, your nonsense was bad enough just now, but what about now? Are you intentionally causing trouble?" Chen Pingyue was the first one to stand up again, but this time no one reproached her. In certain situations, it was always a woman’s world.
Ye Tian’s fingers kept busy, continuing to move over the old master’s body, and without even lifting his head, he said to the old doctor, "Hand over the silver needles, there’s no time!"
"Ye Tian, have you caused enough trouble! Doctor Liu is our top traditional Chinese doctor in the entire Tianhe City, how could you, a young whippersnapper, possibly compete..."
"Heavenly Gate Seven Absolute? Young friend, is this... the technique of the Heavenly Gate Seven Absolute?"
An unbelievable incident occurred, the elderly doctor in a long robe with a round cap adjusted his presbyopic glasses and moved closer as if observing something sacred. His face, covered in wrinkles, expressed a look of reverence, murmuring continuously, "The legendary Heavenly Gate Seven Absolute really does exist! My master did not lie to me, Huaxia’s medical technique truly hasn’t been lost! May the Grandmaster bless..."
The specifically invited elderly doctor was intently observing a young man in a cheap suit treating someone, a look of devotion on his face.
It was truly baffling.
"Doctor Liu, can this Ye Tian cure Old Master Tang’s illness?" Secretary Tang, himself, was also baffled. He internally resisted Ye Tian, detesting this boy who knew no rules, and even less did he want to entrust his own father to him. Yet, seeing the city’s best old doctor bent over watching him, Secretary Tang started to doubt his own judgment.
As if seeing through something, the elderly doctor stood up straight, let out a sigh, "I’ve only heard of this method, never witnessed it. I’m not sure of the results."
"Meaning it won’t work?"
Watching Secretary Tang’s anxious face, the old doctor helplessly smiled. "Secretary Tang, if this young friend can’t cure Old Master Tang’s illness, I would be even more at a loss. His technique, whether it’s the proficiency or control of force, is a grade higher than mine, one could say, polished to perfection."
"Don’t waste words, hurry up, hand over the silver needles, and then go fetch the medicine, quickly!"
The old doctor calmly took out a white box from his medicine chest and placed it gently on the bedside, then carried the medicine box and waited on the side. Secretary Tang, unable to stand it any longer, reached out and took the medicine box from Dr. Liu.
They say experts watch the way, and Ye Tian knew upon seeing this needle box that this old doctor had some real substance. The white needle box was a genuine ivory case, with an ink landscape painting on top. Opening the box, inside lay numerous long and short silver needles, meticulously arranged on the white satin.
"Is this acupuncture?"
"Acupuncture and moxibustion are different. Secretary Tang, please fetch the medicine according to the prescription, boil three doses into one, with a strong flame, twenty minutes is sufficient. Bring it over once it’s ready." While speaking, Ye Tian unapologetically opened the medicine box on Secretary Tang’s back, took out paper and pen, and wrote down the required herbs.
"Medicinal herbs are easy to find, the house has them, it’s just that I don’t know..."
"These are all common herbs, if you’re not assured, Dr. Liu can have a look."
Looking at this crew-cut youth who had always been bowing his head, Secretary Tang, even at this moment, started to somewhat believe in him. This Ye Tian gave off the impression that it was, listen to me, and it won’t be wrong! And everyone listening to him somehow felt this way in their hearts.
"Big brother, this young man might just be a small-time scammer. Just earlier, when we were talking, he jumped straight in through the window. Don’t fall for his tricks so easily; I think..."
"What do you think?"
Tang Guoyao tugged Chen Pingyue a little, signaling her to shut up.
"Guoqing, just listen to the kid. I’ve been here the whole time. Compared to earlier, Old Tang’s complexion has already improved a lot, and his breathing doesn’t seem as rapid as before."
Old Mr. Tan spoke as well, and there was nothing more to say.
"Aunt Liu, fetch the medicine according to Ye Tian’s prescription."
It seems the so-called "Heavenly Gate Seven Absolute" was not finished yet. After Dr. Liu went to fetch the herbs, Ye Tian’s movements continued. His grandfather lay supine on the bed, and Ye Tian stood by the bed, hands ceaselessly pressing and nudging his body, sometimes precisely targeting acupoints with his fingers, other times massaging with his palms as if performing tuina. When he reached the legs, Tang Su and Tan Xiao returned.
"Ye Tian, your requested silver needles... do you already have them?"
"Uh. They’re from Doctor Liu. You take a rest first, don’t worry, I’ll be done soon. Grandfather will be fine." Ye Tian’s gentle voice reassured Tang Su quite a bit, and Tan Xiao could tell that Tang Su’s hand relaxed a lot, her curiosity about this Ye Tian growing.
Interest always comes first. With nearly ten years of experience in business, Tan Xiao has always held this saying to be of utmost importance. Tang Su was supposed to belong to the Tan Family, and although Tan Xin did not want it, it was merely the naive expression of a young man. It was just a matter of time before his persuasion would change her mind, but Ye Tian was undoubtedly the chief culprit in wrecking this marriage arrangement, and from the current situation, his chances of winning were already very high.
