Chapter 95: Chapter 95: I Uncover Your Lies
The group arrived at the Lu Family’s old house at nine in the evening.The servants had already prepared a lavish dinner.
Jiang Man had eaten some KFC at the airport while waiting for people, so she wasn’t hungry now.
Moreover, she wouldn’t eat anything after eight o’clock, and she even drank less water, unless it was alcohol, which she couldn’t resist indulging in a bit.
The family sat around the dinner table, bustling as if they were celebrating the New Year.
Lu Xuemei was very attentive, constantly serving food to the false Divine Doctor and occasionally asking about various family matters.
Such as: whether he had a partner or when he planned to get married.
The false Divine Doctor was somewhat aloof, giving vague answers that left plenty of room for Xuemei’s imagination.
"So, do you... mind a May-December romance? How old are you this year?" Xuemei asked tentatively.
The false Divine Doctor raised his eyebrows, "24."
"Then I am 16 years older than you..." Xuemei almost bit her tongue.
That was quite an age difference.
But to everyone’s surprise, the false Divine Doctor’s eyes curled into crescents as he smiled, "I don’t mind May-December romances. Age isn’t a problem; it’s more about having shared interests."
After that, he looked at Xuemei, "So auntie is 40 years old? If you hadn’t told me, I would believe you were in your twenties."
"Really?" Xuemei was instantly overjoyed.
What woman doesn’t like to be told she looks young?
"Auntie, please stretch out your hand," the false Divine Doctor suddenly said.
Xuemei paused, curious about what he was going to do, but she cooperated and stretched out her hand.
The false Divine Doctor placed Xuemei’s hand on the table and rolled up her sleeve.
Xuemei’s eyes lit up immediately, "Divine Doctor, are you going to take my pulse?"
"Yes," the false Divine Doctor nodded and closed his eyes.
Xuemei was thrilled; she had always wanted to witness the Divine Doctor’s grace while treating patients.
Now, he was close at hand, his features handsome with a youthful air, yet his expression bore a hint of maturity.
The more she looked, the more impressed she was with this young man.
"Auntie, your pulse is slippery and rapid, the left cun, bilateral guan, and right chi pulses are significantly strong; your period is coming in a day or two, right?"
"Ah?" To have her pulse taken in such a setting and to even discuss her menstrual cycle?
Xuemei was somewhat embarrassed but couldn’t help but exclaim, "The Divine Doctor is right; it’s quite accurate. It’ll start tomorrow or the day after."
"Yes." The false Divine Doctor pretended to be contemplative and glanced at the assembled people before closing his eyes again, "Auntie, you usually feel cold easily, often have cold hands and feet, and feel fatigued after lunchtime, right?"
"Yes!" Xuemei couldn’t believe her pulse reading was so accurate.
"You usually like heavy foods, your blood sugar is a bit high, you need to control that, and there is also..."
He paused suddenly.
"What’s wrong?" Xuemei was puzzled and slightly anxious, "I don’t have any hidden illnesses, do I?"
"No." The false Divine Doctor slightly tilted his head, leaned close to Xuemei, and whispered in a low voice, "Is your sexual desire not strong? Apathy?"
"Ah?" Xuemei’s face flushed red instantly, then she nodded like a pecking chicken.
The false Divine Doctor chuckled softly, "It’s okay, auntie, I’ll write you a prescription later to help improve that."
"Really? That would be wonderful!" Xuemei was completely convinced, now looking up to the Divine Doctor even more.
She had consulted many traditional Chinese doctors before, but none were as thorough or accurate as this one.
The Divine Doctor truly lived up to his name, truly impressive!
Lu Xuemei treated the false Divine Doctor with great reverence, showing even more admiration than before, "Divine Doctor Man is really accurate! You all should let him take your pulse!"
Although the crowd didn’t know what Divine Doctor Man had told Lu Xuemei in the end, judging by her reaction, his diagnosis was indeed very accurate.
"Auntie, don’t worry, Divine Doctor is tired from his journey. Let him eat first, then have a good rest for the night. Tomorrow morning we can have him see Brother Zhou first, then check everyone in the family, how about that?" Wen Jingya spoke softly, appearing considerate and thoughtful.
The elderly lady agreed with her, "Let’s do as Jingya suggests."
Wen Jingya was secretly proud, her effort in bringing Divine Doctor was successful, and grandmother’s attitude towards her had undergone a 180-degree transformation!
Jiang Man was playing video games throughout, engaging in both King of Glory and League of Legends at an international top-ranking level.
But she preferred to keep a low profile, never considering going professional, otherwise she would definitely have brought home a global championship.
At that moment, she had her phone on silent, playing League of Legends with Wu Yingfan.
During the entire process of the false Divine Doctor taking Lu Xuemei’s pulse, she was listening.
Initially, she thought this fake Divine Doctor was utterly useless, but Wen Jingya had put some effort into it and actually brought back a real doctor, who was also a practitioner of Chinese medicine.
"Oh right, Divine Doctor Man, my Manman is also very impressive. Her master is the godfather of medicine, Donald Ross. Her senior brother is the president of the Global Red Cross, McLaren, and her grand-nephew is the famous surgeon from Xiehe, Wan Hao! Have you met them before?"
Lu Xuemei enthusiastically introduced.
The false Divine Doctor was momentarily stunned, caught off guard.
This Jiang Man seemed pretty formidable, but she was just a college girl; could her identity be so special?
"I don’t have any impression... However, her master, senior brother, and grand-nephew are well-known worldwide."
The implication was clear: Jiang Man was not famous.
"I see... Manman is Mr. Donald’s last disciple, has studied medicine for many years, and hasn’t started practicing officially yet, so it’s no wonder you don’t recognize her," Jingya explained.
"Manman, don’t take it personally."
Lu Xuemei awkwardly tried to smooth things over.
Just as Jiang Man finished her game, she looked up with cold, indifferent eyes.
This faker can really act?
She had already given him the chance to bluff; he played his part, but once he crossed her, she wasn’t so easy to speak with anymore.
"Divine Doctor Man, shall we follow each other on Twitter? Add each other as friends?"
Jiang Man tugged at the corner of her mouth, pulling out her phone and opening her Twitter account.
The false Divine Doctor hesitated, "I haven’t installed the VPN software on my phone, can’t log into the account."
"Auntie," Jiang Man laughed prominently, her eyes gleaming.
Lu Xuemei met her gaze, feeling slightly intimidated, "...What’s up?"
"Aren’t you a fan of Man? Does he have a Twitter account?"
Only then did Lu Xuemei come back to her senses, turning to the false Divine Doctor, "Eh? Right, you don’t have a Twitter account, do you? It’s because you don’t use these social media platforms, which makes you especially mysterious."
"How could I possibly not use it... I just have a smaller account." The false Divine Doctor’s mind was thundering, nearly exposing himself, but fortunately he reacted quickly!
He nervously glanced at Wen Jingya.
Wen Jingya glared at him briefly, then quickly shifted her gaze away.
Jiang Man, as an outsider looking in, watched the two exchange glances with a sneer.
"I just remembered something," she pretended to act as if she had a bad memory, "I went with my senior brother to a medical conference once, and I actually met Divine Doctor Man there. At the time, I added you, oh sorry, added you on WeChat as a friend, right?"
"A conference? What conference?" The false Divine Doctor furrowed his brows, "I’ve attended many conferences."
"You really are a noble who forgets things. It was last year in Busan."
At this, the false Divine Doctor’s expression turned ashen, as if he had eaten something foul...
