Chapter 389: Misunderstood
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It was not that Lu Jing had never seen a doctor perform acupuncture on a patient. Previously, when his wife was not feeling well, he had also looked for an old Chinese medicine pract.i.tioner to perform acupuncture.
However, Lu Jing suddenly felt that the acupuncture techniques of those old Chinese doctors were not as good as the young lady in front of him.
Her eyes were focused on the needle, and her father did not show any pain on his face.
Lu Jing slowly began to believe in Xia Wan’s medical skills.
After all of them were done, Xia Wan said to Old Master Lu, “Wait for 15 minutes before taking out the needle. You can close your eyes and rest for 15 minutes.”
“Alright,” Old Master Lu replied.
Lu Jing had already put away his previous dissatisfaction and contempt.
He said to Xia Wan solemnly, “I’m sorry. I judged a book by its cover. Your acupuncture skills are very good. Even if I don’t know medicine, I can tell.”
Xia Wan was a little surprised. She didn’t expect Lu Jing to come to such a
conclusion just because she helped Old Master Lu with acupuncture.
“Mr. Lu, do you know something about acupuncture?” she asked.
Lu Jing shook his head. “Of course, I’ve never learned acupuncture. But I’ve seen Chinese doctors perform acupuncture on others. Their acupuncture is not as stable as yours.”
“Mr. Lu, you have a good eye,” Xia Wan smiled.
She had admitted that her acupuncture skills were far superior to those of ordinary Chinese medicine.
“Who is your master?” Lu Jing asked.
“Of course it’s my grandfather.”
Lu Jing looked regretful. “If Grandpa Xia has such superb acupuncture skills, it would be a pity if he stayed in a small county.”
“If he had developed in Beijing, he might have become a famous doctor.”
“My grandfather didn’t have such great ambitions. He didn’t know acupuncture at first, so he just happened to learn it,” Xia Wan said without changing her expression.
“Wealth is alluring. If grandfather had more wealth, he might not be able to maintain his original heart.”
“I think Grandpa prefers a simple life in the countryside.”
Xia Wan was just making it up, but Lu Jing admired Grandpa Xia and praised him a lot.
Xia Wan felt even more guilty after being praised by Lu Jing.
She had made all of this up herself.
If her grandfather’s medical skills were to be brought to the capital, it would be completely inadequate.
Old Master Lu also smiled.
His comrade was praised, so he was naturally happy for his comrade.
After 15 minutes, Xia Wan helped Old Master Lu remove the needle.
“Grandpa Lu, what do you think?” she asked.
Old Master Lu’s eyes were filled with joy. “I feel very good. In the past, my head would always ache, but now I feel especially energetic. I even want to go out and run a few laps.”
Lu Jing didn’t believe him. “Dad, you didn’t say that on purpose to cooperate with Xia Wan, did you? I already believe that Xia Wan knows medicine. You don’t have to act like this anymore.”
Old Master Lu glared at him. “Who said I was acting? I really feel much better.”
He looked at Xia Wan again. “Girl, you talk to him. I can’t get through to him.
He’s too stupid.”
Lu Jing choked. Ever since he was young, only his father had called him stupid.
“Can you tell me the reason for my dad’s headache?” Lu Jing asked Xia Wan.
Xia Wan said, “It’s very simple. It’s just too troublesome. Did something happen to the Lu family recently?”
Realizing that she seemed to have said something she shouldn’t have, Xia Wan said, “I’m sorry, this is a private matter of the Lu family. I shouldn’t have asked. ”
Lu Jing said, “It’s okay. You’re my father’s doctor now. In order to cure my father’s illness, it’s okay for me to tell you these things.” Xia Wan couldn’t reject him anymore. In fact, she was also curious.
Today, the Lu family did not come in vain!
Lu Jing said bluntly, “Recently, there have been some problems with my brother’s company. He bought a piece of land. There might be a cemetery underneath it. According to the country’s regulations, such a piece of land has to be confiscated.”
“In order to bid for this piece of land, my brother took out a lot of loans from the bank before s.n.a.t.c.hing it from someone else. After giving up the land, he might be able to get some compensation, but he would lose a lot of money.”
“How much will you lose?” Xia Wan asked tentatively.
“Seventy million.”
70 million was just the money for a medical consultation for Xia Wan in the past, but 30 million now was about the same as 200 million in the future.
It was very rare for large enterprises in the market to have a liquid capital of 70 million.
Losing 70 million was a small matter. The key was that if the land was returned, the Lu family would not be able to use this land to build a house. The loss would be many times more than 70 million.
In her heart, Xia Wan was happy. After all, Lu Xi had lost money, which was equivalent to weakening Lu Lin’s strength. It was a good thing for her.
However, according to what she knew, even if the Lu family was in trouble now, the Lu family would still develop very well in the future. At least before she died, the Lu family was still in high society..
