y weapons."Who are you" Xiao Yu asked indifferently, his tone unchanged.The three girls glanced at Xiao Yu with surprise; after all, even they had been greatly startled just now, but it seemed like Xi...Chapter 298: Arrogant at First, Humble Afterwards
The security guards who had their arms amputated were helped down from the vehicle by Wang Biao and followed one after another into Wan Sheng Hall. Only when Zhang Dahan saw them all enter did he also step in.
Inside Wan Sheng Hall, Xiao Hongyang's consultation desk was occupied by three or four patients. Xiao Yu sat beside him watching as Xiao Hongyang diagnosed illnesses and prescribed treatments. This wasn't due to Xiao Yu being lazy; these patients had heard about Xiao Hongyang through word of mouth and came specifically for him, choosing to wait rather than seek another doctor.
So it was that while Xiao Hongyang was busy, Xiao Yu sat idly by drinking tea.
Suddenly, as he watched Xiao Hongyang treating patients, Xiao Yu heard a commotion at the entrance. He looked up and saw Director Huo entering with a middle-aged man whom Xiao Yu didn't recognize. Xiao Yu's brows furrowed slightly when he noticed the man; although his appearance suggested anxiety, it did not indicate an ordinary person. Furthermore, since he was here with Director Huo, this must be the patient’s family.
At that moment, a large group of people suddenly rushed in from outside the door—these were the security guards Xiao Yu had injured earlier. Seeing them enter, Xiao Yu's brows furrowed further.
Xiao Yu glanced at Director Huo and then back to the middle-aged man and the security guards. Could it be that they want him to reattach their arms He wasn't planning on doing that easily for these people.
Zhang Dahan entered lastly, prompting Xiao Yu to stand up when he saw him enter and ask, "What's going on Do you have something important"
"Third Brother, I don’t have anything. It’s mainly them," Zhang Dahan replied, pointing at Huang Haitian and the others.
Seeing these people come in, Xiao Hongyang paused his consultation and watched them warily. Liu Erxi also came out from behind the counter to stand next to Xiao Yu.
"Doctor Xiao, please be magnanimous! Regardless of how they have offended you, I beg you to save my father!" Huang Haitian pleaded earnestly with Xiao Yu.
Without any hesitation after Zhang Dahan finished speaking, Huang Haitian directly stated the reason for their visit and adopted a very respectful attitude.
This was unprecedented—a high-ranking military official and future patriarch of the Old Huang family humbling himself before a young common doctor. Normally, when doctors learned about the background of the Old Huang family, they would vie to treat them. However, Xiao Yu's case was an exception.
Don't even mention being humble like this; if he could get Xiao Yu to help, he would be willing to be even more submissive. After all, Xiao Yu was currently his only hope for saving his father's life, while his own people had thoroughly offended him.
After hearing Huang Haitian’s words, Xiao Yu didn’t speak but sat quietly instead. He went out of goodwill to treat someone but ended up being beaten by the guards and even threatened with a gun when they got desperate. This left him with an extremely unfavorable impression.
"Doctor Xiao, this is about saving lives! Please help us again!" The chief stepped forward and said to Xiao Yu.
Since he had agreed to assist in the first place, even knowing that Xiao Yu was suffering injustice, he still needed to persuade him. Whether it would work or not wasn’t important; what mattered was expressing his attitude.
"Chief, I’m not refusing because of reluctance. If I wanted to refuse from the start, I wouldn't have come! Now, I can't help."
Xiao Yu said to the chief. When facing the chief, Xiao Yu's expression softened a bit. Although the initial cause was that the chief had asked him for treatment, it wasn’t his fault, so Xiao Yu’s tone towards the chief remained relatively polite.
By Dr. Xiao Hongyang’s consultation desk, those patients waiting to see him looked on in astonishment at this scene. Judging from these people's words, they were looking for Doctor Xiao Yu for treatment and rescue. Could it be that this young doctor was very skilled At this thought, they couldn't help but look at Xiao Yu with a sense of wonder.
After speaking, Xiao Yu turned to Liu Erxi behind him and said, "Erxi, go get some water for the chief and the others."
"Hongyang, you should hurry up and examine them! It's too chaotic here now!" Xiao Yu told Xiao Hongyang.
"Yes, Master!" Xiao Hongyang respectfully replied. After saying that, he continued to diagnose his current patient.
“Doctor, just now… did you call that doctor your master” The patient in front of Xiao Hongyang pointed at Xiao Yu with a look of disbelief and asked.
"Haha, yes, he’s my master!" While taking the patient's pulse, Xiao Hongyang didn't reply immediately. After releasing his grip on the patient's wrist, he chuckled lightly before answering.
“Erxi, prepare the medicine according to this prescription!” After responding to the previous patient, Xiao Hongyang picked up the prescription and handed it to Liu Erxi.
The patients who heard Xiao Hongyang’s words all shifted their gazes toward Xiao Yu, seated there, with eyes shining like they had just seen a precious treasure.
The person at the end of the line took a step forward and rushed to Xiao Hongyang's consultation desk when they heard what he said, saying: "Doctor, please take a look at me!"
"Oh, alright... Please sit down!" Xiao Yu was taken aback for a moment before speaking.
After that, he pushed the pulse-taking pillow forward to indicate to the patient to place their hand on it.
"Doctor Xiao, shouldn’t you first examine my father He’s waiting for medical help!"
Huang Haitian saw Xiao Yu sitting there and ignoring him and his group. Now that he actually started attending to another patient, Huang wanted to step forward and pull the patient away but was afraid of further worsening Xiao Yu's impression of them. Thus, he again bowed towards Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu didn’t know or recognize Huang Haitian, let alone hate him. But after what happened at noon, Xiao Yu had no intention of getting involved in this matter anymore.
Since he wasn’t willing to get involved, why bother talking with Huang any further Therefore, he ignored them completely.
Xiao Yu didn't even glance at Huang Haitian and extended his hand to the person's wrist to take their pulse quietly.
"Hmm, you don't have a serious problem. It’s just due to staying up late too much. I’ll prescribe some medicine for you."
Xiao Yu said after putting down the patient's wrist and picked up the thick brush pen to write out the prescription. With more prolonged use of this brush pen, its compatibility with Xiao Yu had improved significantly, making it even better at transmitting Yang Qi. He felt that the material of this brush pen was superior even to that thousand-year-old lightning-struck peach wood sword.
"Thump... Thump..." Seeing that Xiao Yu ignored Huang Haitian completely, all the guards fell to their knees together.
"Doctor Xiao, whether it’s right or wrong, we are at fault. But this matter has nothing to do with General Huang! Please save General Huang!"
These guards were kneeling on the ground and, because they had lost both arms, could only nod their heads repeatedly towards Xiao Yu.
Hearing what these guards said, Xiao Yu finally turned his head to look at them. They were so audacious and lawless; when the guard captain shouted to fire a shot, they actually dared to pull the trigger. If he had been an ordinary person, the consequences would have been unimaginable. Therefore, Xiao Yu's impression of these guards could be said to be extremely poor.
"Third brother, if possible, you should go take a look! Back in the day when General Huang supported Korea, he was a combat hero. Later on, during the counteroffensive battle, his achievements were even more remarkable! If there's any way to help, please offer it! The mistakes these people made shouldn't be borne by Old Huang; they will face military regulations and discipline for their actions!"
Zhang Dahan, who had been standing silently by the side, also stepped forward and said something.
As Zhang Dahan himself was a soldier, he held these veterans in high regard. If not for this matter involving Xiao Yu, he would have long ago stepped forward to help find doctors.
So it was that Zhang Dahan, who had initially planned on remaining silent, ultimately offered his encouragement to Xiao Yu.
At this point, Xiao Yu felt somewhat conflicted. However, when he saw that the bodyguards whose arms were already crippled and the one whose limbs had been disabled had received appropriate punishment—and more military regulations awaited them—he understood their fate was sealed by their own actions.
If they hadn't drawn their guns, despite being injured by Xiao Yu, they wouldn’t have faced military discipline. Now, not only were they hurt but also facing further military penalties for their misconduct.
"You all wait a moment! We’ll discuss this after we finish seeing the patients," said Xiao Yu after some contemplation.
With two more patients still waiting to be seen at Xiao Hongyang’s clinic, Xiao Yu couldn’t just abandon them and leave immediately with the others.
Huang Haitian was anxious but knew that if Xiao Yu agreed to see him, there was hope. Thus, despite his worry, he waited calmly.
Soon enough, Xiao Hongyang finished treating the remaining patients. Although these patients were curious and wanted to stay for a while, upon seeing the dozen or so kneeling bodyguards with their pale faces and twisted arms, they felt uneasy and left Xiao Yu’s clinic.
Upon hearing Zhang Dahan's words, Xiao Yu decided to go take a look. Since the incident stemmed from these bodyguards and they had already received some punishment—culminating in military regulations—the penalties were adequate.
"Hongyang, pack up; we’re going out!" said Xiao Yu after confirming there were no more patients at his clinic.
"Yes, Master," replied Xiao Hongyang as he started to prepare his medical bag.
"Our consultation fee is 100 per person. This doesn’t include the treatment cost; that will be determined after we examine the patient and depends on their condition. The charge could range from several thousand to millions, or even hundreds of dollars—it all depends! If you agree, we’ll go; if not, it’s fine.re getting on the plane, his mother had prepared a large amount of food that he checked in as baggage.Xiao Yu got on early; there was no one around him at first. Fortunately, Xiao Yu's seat was by the...
