Great Immortal Doctor

Chapter 43: Chapter 43: Too Sudden



Qian Bin was secretly annoyed in his heart, but he quickly and carefully picked up his wine glass and said to Yu Ziman, "Ziman, I'd like to offer you a toast first. I had a bad attitude towards you in the delivery room today. I apologize to you."

Yu Ziman smiled, picked up her wine glass symbolically, clinked it with Qian Bin's, took a sip and then put it down. She turned to Xiao Yi and continued, "Xiao Yi, let me tell you, Shu Wan is my best sister. There are so many people eyeing her that they could line up all the way from here to the other end of the earth. If you dare to make her unhappy, I'll be the first one to not let you off."

"What will you do to me? Don't forget that since the last bet, you've been my nominal disciple. Are you going to act against your master?" Xiao Yi smiled and said indifferently.

When Yu Ziman heard Xiao Yi mention that ridiculous "master-disciple relationship" again, her pretty face immediately turned red. She lowered her head, feeling both shy and annoyed.

Qian Bin across from them saw Yu Ziman's appearance. The Lafite in his mouth suddenly tasted extremely sour. He was jealous and angry in his heart. He never expected that his affectionate toast didn't attract the slightest attention from Yu Ziman, but a single word from Xiao Yi could make her feel so shy.

Qian Bin couldn't just let the two of them get along so intimately. He quickly picked up his wine glass again and said to Xiao Yi, "Doctor Xiao, let me offer you a toast. You should also try this 1982 Château Lafite Rothschild. Once you miss this chance, you won't get another one. Hehe, just kidding."

Yu Ziman came from a good family, and perhaps this Lafite wasn't enough to attract her attention. Then he could use this wine to humiliate Xiao Yi. He couldn't just let the two of them keep ignoring him.

However, Xiao Yi didn't say much about his rudeness. He picked up the wine glass, skillfully swirled it around, placed it under his nose and took a light sniff. Then he took a small sip and put down the wine glass. His posture was much more graceful than Qian Bin's cautious way of holding the wine glass.

Yu Ziman's beautiful eyes, as she looked at Xiao Yi, gradually showed a hint of admiration.

"Not bad. It really lives up to its reputation. The wine is mellow and rich. It's indeed a good wine," Xiao Yi praised without reservation.

Cultivating the Dao didn't prohibit indulgence in wine and women. In his previous life, Xiao Yi had a certain understanding of wine. This 1982 Château Lafite Rothschild could barely meet Xiao Yi's taste.

"Damn it, it's as if you really know a lot. You're such a pretentious asshole. Just looking at your clothes that cost no more than 200 yuan, I don't believe you can tell the difference," Qian Bin thought he could humiliate Xiao Yi but instead made Yu Ziman think more highly of him. He was so annoyed that he tilted his head back and took a big gulp of wine. (From "Traveling in the 18th Century Continental Europe" download)

"Drinking like this is just like a cow gulping water. No matter how good the wine is, it's no different from swill," Xiao Yi shook his head and sighed.

"Burp!" Qian Bin choked on the wine and coughed violently, which made Yu Ziman feel very disgusted.

"Sir and madam, may I ask whose BMW is parked on the driveway? It's blocking other guests' cars now. Could you please move it? Thank you," a waiter politely came to their table and asked.

"Cough, cough," Qian Bin quickly grabbed a tissue to wipe his mouth and stood up. He said loudly, "A BMW 320, right? It's mine. I'll go and move it right away."

As he said that, he grabbed the car key and was about to walk out.

"No, sir. It's a BMW 750," the waiter shook his head and said.

Qian Bin was taken aback but quickly smiled and said, "It's a 750? Then it must be yours, Ziman, right?"

Yu Ziman frowned slightly and said, "But I parked it in the parking space. Are you sure you're not mistaken? It's burgundy."

"No, it's a black car," the waiter said seriously.

"A black BMW 750? It's not from our table. You must be mistaken. Go and ask someone else," Qian Bin waved his hand and said loudly, wishing that everyone in the restaurant could hear that he had come in a BMW.

Just then, Xiao Yi reached into his pocket, took out the car key and said, "Then it must be mine. Here, take the car key. You can find someone to move it."

As Xiao Yi said that, he carelessly threw the car key into the waiter's hand.

Qian Bin staggered and almost fell. He rubbed his eyes and took a closer look at the car key. Sure enough, it had the BMW logo. A BMW 750, a 750! That was much more expensive than his car. How could Xiao Yi, a young Chinese medicine practitioner, afford to drive such a car?

Qian Bin inexplicably broke out in a cold sweat.

"Sir, you don't look well. Are you feeling unwell?" the waiter asked considerately.

"No, it's nothing," Qian Bin slumped back into his seat and shook his head.

"Okay, sir. I'll park the car for you now," the waiter said respectfully to Xiao Yi and then turned and left.

Qian Bin no longer had the mood to drink. His heart turned cold. He never expected that Xiao Yi was pretending to be weak while being strong and actually had a considerable fortune. It seemed that his taste in Lafite wasn't just an act. Tonight, he could no longer expect to attract Yu Ziman's attention in front of Xiao Yi.

Yu Ziman didn't notice Qian Bin's gaffe at all. She asked Xiao Yi indifferently, "When did you buy the car?"

"I didn't buy it. It belongs to a rich young master. He just left it with me to drive for a while. How could I afford a BMW?" Xiao Yi glanced at the dejected Qian Bin and deliberately said indifferently.

Sure enough, as soon as Xiao Yi said this, Qian Bin was like a chicken injected with adrenaline. He immediately raised his head and his face regained some color. He quickly said, "So it's borrowed! I knew it. How could you afford a BMW?"

Yu Ziman, however, glanced at Qian Bin. A playful smile flashed across her face. She reached into her bag, took out a card and pushed it in front of Xiao Yi, saying with a smile, "Here, this card was given to you by Shu Wan and asked me to pass it on to you just now."

"What's this?" Xiao Yi picked it up, took a look and asked indifferently.

"This is the money for the medicine you sold to Madam Qi last night, three million yuan, not a penny less," Yu Ziman said with a faint smile, glancing at Qian Bin.

"Three, three million yuan?" Qian Bin was as if struck by lightning and couldn't control himself. His mood, which had been happy for less than a minute, was once again thrown into the abyss. With a fortune of three million yuan, he could indeed afford to drive a BMW 750. (From "Evolution in the End of the World" download)

Life was really full of great joys and sorrows that came too suddenly.

Xiao Yi completely ignored Qian Bin's joys and sorrows and said indifferently, "What's the hurry for Shu Wan? There's still plenty of time. Why is she in such a rush to give me the money?"

"I don't know about that. But Xiao Yi, you're really not being fair. You had such a good thing, but you didn't even tell me. Are you afraid that I can't afford three million yuan?" Yu Ziman looked down at her fingertips and said with a bit of displeasure.

"Hehe, why would I need you to pay for that kind of thing? If you want it, I'll give you a bottle later," Xiao Yi put away the bank card with three million yuan and said with a smile.

"Really? Are you serious?" Yu Ziman exclaimed, which was quite out of character for her. After all, having witnessed the miraculous effect of the Jade Skin Ointment on Shu Wan, no woman could resist its attraction.

"Of course. When have you ever seen me break my word?" Xiao Yi chuckled.

"Great, great! I really didn't recognize you as my master in vain," Yu Ziman said excitedly, swaying Xiao Yi's arm like a little girl.

"You're willing to call me master now?" Xiao Yi smiled and teased her.

"If I had known you had such a good thing earlier, I would have called you master long ago. It's just a word 'master'. It won't make me lose a piece of meat," Yu Ziman said with a charming smile, her face glowing with excitement.

Qian Bin was left stunned, completely unable to understand what the two of them were talking about. However, Yu Ziman's beauty made his heart itch. Looking at Xiao Yi, who remained calm in the face of such a stunning beauty, Qian Bin couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in his heart.

The waiter also brought the food one after another, and the three of them started to eat. However, the exquisite and expensive food tasted like sawdust in Qian Bin's mouth. Especially when he saw that the 38,000-yuan bottle of red wine didn't attract the slightest attention from Xiao Yi and Yu Ziman, Qian Bin really felt that everything tonight was like a nightmare.

Just then, Xiao Yi's phone rang. Xiao Yi looked down and saw that it was a call from the old dean Li Qingshan. He quickly answered it.

"Xiao Yi, where are you? I'm coming to find you," Li Qingshan said urgently as soon as he opened his mouth.

"I'm at the Greenery Western Restaurant. What's the matter?" Xiao Yi asked while chewing the food in his mouth.

"I'll tell you when we meet," Li Qingshan said and then hung up the phone.

About ten minutes later, Li Qingshan, with his head full of white hair, rushed into the western restaurant.

"Dean Li," Yu Ziman saw him at a glance and quickly stood up to greet him.

Qian Bin, who had been in a daze, immediately woke up when he heard Yu Ziman call "Dean Li". He jumped up as if on a spring, stood up, took a few steps forward to greet him and said enthusiastically, "Dean Li, why are you here?"

Li Qingshan casually waved his hand and said, "Xiao Qian, you're here too. I'm here to find Xiao Yi, Doctor Xiao."

After saying that, Li Qingshan flashed past the enthusiastic Qian Bin and walked straight towards Xiao Yi. He said in a serious tone, "Xiao Yi, I'm here for two things. The first thing is that our hospital received two more cases of Posica tumors today. They're both female patients, and the condition is progressing very quickly. I think that except for you, Xiao Yi, there's currently no one else who can treat it. So, I rushed over here right away and ask you to take action."

Qian Bin beside them was shocked when he heard this, as if he had heard a bolt from the blue. His mouth dropped open in surprise. Although he was just a doctor in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, he had also heard of the notorious Posica tumors. That was a disease that the entire medical community in the world was helpless to deal with. What did Dean Li mean? That Xiao Yi could treat it? How was that possible?

"Director Qian doesn't know yet, right? Xiao Yi is the inheritor of the Four Symbols Acupuncture Technique. His achievements in Chinese medicine are so great that even Dean Li himself admits that he can't compare. Dean Li is going to apply for special treatment for Xiao Yi from the Chinese Medicine Association personally," Yu Ziman saw Qian Bin standing there like a wooden chicken and leaned close to him, whispering with a bit of pride.
