Chapter 100: Bowing with Genuine Sincerity

“Hmph, you’re asking me? The trouble you’ve brought upon yourselves is yours alone to resolve.” Shen Wanqian’s tone turned exceptionally cold and harsh, instantly leaving Qin Sumei utterly stunned.

Before she could even grasp the situation, Shen Wanqian truthfully explained everything. Upon learning the truth, Qin Sumei’s anger flared wildly.

That Huihui, she had gone too far!

She was sent to invite Doctor Lin, yet she ended up offending him?

Without hesitation, Qin Sumei quickly apologized over the phone. “Director Shen, this is entirely our fault. I’m truly sorry. I didn’t expect my daughter to quarrel with Doctor Lin. We will definitely give her a stern lesson.”

“Now is not the time for apologies. If you want Mr. Lin to come help, have your daughter sincerely make it up to him. Otherwise, I can’t help.” Shen Wanqian ended the call abruptly.

Qin Sumei was left dumbfounded for a moment.

Fang Jianxiong coughed twice weakly and asked, “What exactly happened? What did Director Shen say?”

“Jianxiong, it’s nothing. I’m going to call Huihui again and tell her to properly beg Doctor Lin.” Qin Sumei said as she hurriedly relayed Shen Wanqian’s words honestly to Fang Huihui.

After hearing this, Huihui was shocked. “Mom, are you serious? You actually want me to apologize to that guy?”

“Shut up!” Qin Sumei snapped sternly, her voice cold. “Do you want to save your father or not? If you do, do exactly as I say. Even Director Shen won’t offend Doctor Lin, so how can we afford to offend him?”

“If you can’t invite Doctor Lin, don’t bother coming back.”

“Mom, wait, listen to me—”

Before Huihui could explain, the call was cut off.

Now, Huihui was completely torn.

She had just had a falling-out with Lin Feng; now she had to go to him and beg?

She had never begged anyone before in her life—others always begged her!

Fine, for Dad’s sake, I’ll swallow my pride and beg.

Finally, Huihui humbled herself, got out of the car, and rang the doorbell of the Su family villa.

Lin Feng heard the doorbell and immediately guessed who it was.

At first, he ignored it, but the persistent ringing made him worry about disturbing Su Qingxue’s rest, so he got up and went downstairs to open the door.

When he opened the villa door again, he sneered, “Why are you back? Didn’t you leave already?”

“Mr. Lin, I was rude earlier. I apologize. My father’s condition is really critical. Please, I beg you, come save him.” Huihui’s tone was sincere.

“Hah, your attitude changed pretty fast. If you had spoken like this earlier, wouldn’t I have agreed already?”

“So, you agree?” Huihui’s icy face softened into a rare smile.

Lin Feng shrugged and said bluntly, “Did I say I agreed? What you said just now isn’t enough to calm me.”

“If you want me to treat your father, you might as well kneel and kowtow a few times.”

“You want me to kowtow to you?” Huihui’s expression froze cold again, and she clenched her fists in anger.

Lin Feng scoffed, “Looks like you’re not sincere. If that’s the case, you should leave.”

“Wait!” Huihui bit her lip hard, stopping him. “Is it just kowtowing? For my father, I’ll do it.”

Huh?

Curious, Lin Feng looked back and saw her lower herself, dropping to her knees, placing her hands on the ground, about to kowtow.

But before her head touched the floor, she suddenly felt a hand stop her forehead.

She looked up slightly — it was Lin Feng holding her up.

“Enough. Get in the car and lead the way. If you’d come any later, your father wouldn’t have survived.”

“Please, Mr. Lin.” Huihui was shaken inside. This man had just stopped her!

Snapping back to reality, she quickly led Lin Feng into the car, and together they headed back to the Fang residence.

When Lin Feng arrived at the Fang residence, as soon as he stepped into the villa, he sensed a fierce ominous aura coming from upstairs. His brow furrowed deeply as he whispered, “This is bad. The poison has reached his heart meridian. Hurry upstairs.”

“Okay.” Huihui hurriedly led Lin Feng upstairs to the room where Doctor Xu was still administering acupuncture to Fang Jianxiong.

The needle in Doctor Xu’s hand trembled greatly. With each prick, Fang Jianxiong’s condition worsened.

“Mom, Doctor Lin is here.” Huihui approached Qin Sumei and introduced Lin Feng.

Qin Sumei glanced at Lin Feng with surprise. She hadn’t expected the doctor recommended by Director Shen to be so young.

“Good, good. Doctor Xu, step aside and let Doctor Lin treat Jianxiong.”

Qin Sumei casually instructed. Doctor Xu slowly turned, his expression complex and clearly unwilling.

“Go ahead. I want to see what you can do for the head of the Fang family’s incurable disease.” Doctor Xu stepped aside.

“‘Deadly Soul-Returning Needle’?” Lin Feng walked to the bedside, looking at the silver needles stuck in Fang Jianxiong and the scorched marks left by flames. His tone was grave.

“Not bad. You actually know something,” Doctor Xu stroked his beard, smug.

In the entire Jiang City, only Xu Wenming could perform this needle technique.

Its difficulty was unparalleled in traditional Chinese medicine; most people wouldn’t be able to learn it even if they tried.

Lin Feng nodded solemnly and judged, “Your needle technique is decent, but with Fang’s current condition, this technique alone won’t save his life. You need a more advanced ‘Universe Soul-Returning Needle.’”

“What did you say? Universe Soul-Returning Needle?” Doctor Xu’s face suddenly changed.

He looked at Lin Feng with scorn. “My ‘Deadly Soul-Returning Needle’ is already the highest level among soul-returning techniques. The ‘Universe Soul-Returning Needle’ is top-tier difficulty—no one in the world has ever mastered it.”

“You’re saying that because you can’t save Fang Jianxiong yourself?”

“Looks like your so-called ‘miracle doctor’ title is just empty talk.”

“Funny you should say that. I actually know how to perform the Universe Soul-Returning Needle.” Lin Feng’s statement stunned Doctor Xu into silence.

His eyes widened in disbelief as he fixed Lin Feng with a deep, piercing gaze. “You can really perform the Universe Soul-Returning Needle?”

“That’s right. Lend me your silver needles. During the procedure, I’ll need you to help me.”

“If the needles become exposed, use the first few to block them, so as not to accidentally harm others.” Lin Feng looked at him gravely as he spoke.
