Chapter 225: Absolute Trust
Since Old Master Ye had lived till such an old age, his insight was extremely sharp.
He saw Lin Bai’s grave expression, and after thinking for a moment, he guessed the reason.
“Is there something wrong with you being so concerned about this prescription?”
Although Old Master Ye felt that with Lin Bai’s medical knowledge, he shouldn’t be able to see anything, he still asked that question.
Lin Bai didn’t answer directly.
“I just feel that Grandpa’s illness is a little strange.”
“Grandpa, you have a private doctor who constantly nourishes your body according to your body’s condition.”
“Logically speaking, even if you aren’t getting better, you shouldn’t suddenly have such a serious illness.”
“When I took your pulse just now, I discovered that the cold Qi in your body was congested. Moreover, it doesn’t look like it’s been a day or two.”
“If even I can get the pulse, there’s no reason that a Chinese medicine expert like Master Qin can’t find it. That’s why I find it very strange.”
Old Master Ye listened quietly. There was no change in his expression and he merely asked calmly, “So you suspect that there’s something wrong with my medicine?”
Lin Bai said, “At least, we can’t rule out this possibility.”
Old Master Ye shook his head and said, “That won’t happen. There’s no such possibility.”
“Qin Weikang has been with me for more than 40 years. I know him very well. He won’t harm me.”
“The other Chinese medicine masters who have seen the prescription are also upright people. They won’t do such despicable acts.”
“The servants in the house have also gone through strict background checks. They are also trustworthy. They won’t do anything to the process of brewing and delivering the medicine.”
After saying that, Old Master Ye paused for a moment and then smiled.
He said to Lin Bai, “I think there must be some misunderstanding. Maybe you misunderstood this prescription.”
“But no matter what, I still have to thank you for taking Grandpa’s health so seriously.”
“You’re a good child.”
What Lin Bai wanted was not Old Master Ye’s gratitude.
His goal was to keep Old Master Ye alive.
“Grandpa, people change easily. It’s better to be cautious.”
“I know you don’t believe in my ability, and I don’t believe that the People You Trust will harm you.”
“Just take it as buying more insurance. Can I check the residue of the medicine you drank?”
Lin Bai could not bring out any substantial evidence at the moment. All his doubts were just his guesses.
He knew that he had to bring out stronger proof to make Old Master Ye believe in him.
Old Master Ye pondered for a moment and was about to speak when a servant suddenly knocked on the door.
“Master, Doctor Qin is here.”
Lin Bai was a little surprised. He didn’t expect Qin Weikang to come at this time.
Old Master Ye didn’t look surprised at all. It seemed that they had already arranged for Qin Weikang to come at this time.
“Invite him in,” Old Master Ye said.
A moment later, Qin Weikang pushed the door open and came in. He greeted Old Master Ye.
Then, he realized that there was someone else in the room, so he looked a little confused.
Old Master Ye said, “Old Qin, this is my granddaughter and future grandson-in-law. I’ll have to ask you to take care of them in the future.”
“Jinmo, Lin Bai, this is your Uncle Qin.”
Old Master Ye introduced them to each other very naturally, as if Lin Bai’s previous doubts had never happened.
Lin Bai didn’t say much and followed Yu jinmo and said politely, “Hello, Uncle Qin.”.
Qin Weikang nodded and smiled with a gentle and kind face.
“Hello. I’ve long heard about you from Mr. Ye. I didn’t expect to finally have the chance to meet you today.”
He spoke at a neither fast nor slow speed, appearing calm and refined. He had the demeanor of a great master.
Looking at his appearance, he seemed to be only in his early fifties.
To be able to become a well-known Chinese medicine saint at such an age was truly not simple.
Lin Bai maintained the smile on his face and quietly activated the enhanced version of the Divine-level human discernment technique.
A huge translucent text box immediately appeared above Qin Weikang’s head. It was densely packed with his life experiences.
Lin Bai made good use of the time and quickly read at a glance.
On the other side, Qin Weikang had already turned his attention back to Old Master Ye. He asked him briefly about his physical condition in the past few days and then began to take his pulse.
Old Master Ye cooperated as usual. After he took his pulse, he asked, “How is my current physical condition? Do I need to change the medicine?”
Qin Weikang answered without thinking,
“No need. The medicine from before is very suitable. Just take it daily according to the previous dosage.”
Old Master Ye said again, “I have been drinking that medicine for almost half a month and I haven’t seen any improvement. Moreover, I feel that my body is getting more and more uncomfortable. Do you really not need to adjust the prescription?”
Qin Weikang said, “Your body’s foundation is not good. A small illness will trigger an old illness. This will cause your body to become weaker and it won’t be easy to get better.”
“But this medicine is definitely not a problem. Don’t You Trust My Medical Skills?”
“If you want to get better faster, I can also increase the dosage for everyone.”
“But as I said earlier, you’re old after all. Your body’s foundation can’t be compared to when you were young. I’m afraid that if the medicine’s effects are too strong, your body will not be able to withstand it.”
Qin Weikang’s answer was patient and sincere. It was as if he was thinking of Old Master Ye.
After Old Master Ye heard it, he smiled and said, “I remember when I first met you, you were only around ten years old. You were still an apprentice. You followed your master to see patients and save people every day.”
“In the blink of an eye, it has been more than forty years. You were an apprentice in the beginning, then you became a master and took charge of your own affairs. Now, you have become a famous doctor.”
“All these years, it’s been you who has been treating my body. Of course, I trust your medical skills. Since you said that there was no problem with the prescription and that there was no need to increase the dosage, I’ll continue drinking it. Come back and take a look at it in a few days.”
Old Master Ye’s words were meant for Qin Weikang to hear and express his trust and respect.
At the same time, it was also meant for Lin Bai to hear.
He was using this method to let Lin Bai understand how solid the trust and friendship between him and Qin Weikang was.
He was also tactfully telling Lin Bai not to continue to doubt Qin Weikang, he couldn’t hurt himself.
Lin Bai wasn’t a fool, of course he could understand Old Master Ye’s hidden meaning.
However, Lin Bai did not dispel his doubts about Qin Weikang. On the contrary, his suspicions were aggravated.
That was because when he had just read Qin Weikang’s life story, he had discovered a lot of terrifying information.
The first was about the past between Qin Weikang and his master.
