Just as expected!
With each needle he removed,
Madam Ye's complexion gradually improved, a healthy blush creeping onto her face.
When the very last needle was removed,
Madam Ye's eyes fluttered open!
The room was in an uproar!
The Ye Family was ecstatic!
"Qing… Qing'er, what's going on?"
"A moment ago, I thought I was going to die, but now I feel so relaxed and comfortable!" Madam Ye asked, her voice full of confusion.
At her words,
Ye Qing and the others were so overjoyed they were on the verge of tears.
"Grandma, Little Divine Physician Zhang Lingfeng saved you!"
"That's right! Grandma, Little Divine Physician Zhang is incredible! He removed the needles, and you woke up! Heavens, his skills are simply divine!"
"…"
At once,
the members of the Ye Family all started talking at once, recounting how Lin Han had impersonated a doctor and nearly killed Madam Ye, and how Little Divine Physician Zhang Lingfeng had stepped in to save her.
And when she heard that Lin Han had not only almost killed her but had also come to fulfill a marriage contract,
Her expression changed in an instant.
Madam Ye's face darkened.
"You're Lin Han? Where is the marriage contract?"
Hearing this,
Lin Han immediately took out the marriage contract and stepped forward to hand it to Madam Ye.
However…
RIP!!!
Without so much as a glance, Madam Ye tore the marriage contract to pieces!
Then, as if tossing garbage, she threw the scraps of paper in Lin Han's face!
FLUTTER!
The scraps of paper scattered through the air.
A coldness crept into Lin Han's eyes.
"Lin Han, let me tell you something. That old bastard must have been out of his mind to arrange such an absurd marriage!"
"I don't acknowledge it, and my Ye Family certainly doesn't either!"
Hearing Madam Ye's words,
expressions of immense delight appeared on the faces of both Gao Jianxiang and Ye Qing.
The two of them walked up to Lin Han and mocked him relentlessly.
"Kid, did you hear that? You're just a stray dog, a worthless loser. You aren't worthy of Ye Qing! I suggest you get the hell out of here and go as far as you can!"
Gao Jianxiang's face was full of smug satisfaction.
'In his eyes, only a young master from a prominent family like him was a worthy match for Ye Qing.'
Ye Qing also sneered coldly.
"Lin Han, get lost!"
"The Ye Family does not welcome you! From this day forward, I forbid you from ever setting foot in our home again!!!"
Her words were bone-chillingly cold.
The words reached Lin Han's ears, and he almost laughed in exasperation.
Shaking his head, Lin Han couldn't help but let out a dry laugh.
"You old folks… it seems the Ye Family doesn't need my care after all."
Care?
The Ye Family members were stunned for a moment, then burst into roaring laughter.
"Hahaha, did you hear that? This stray dog actually claims our Ye Family needs his care! That's hilarious!"
"He really doesn't know his place! We're the great Ye Family! Why would we need a stray dog to 'care' for us? What an idiot!"
The Ye Family's mockery only made the cold sneer on Lin Han's lips grow wider.
He didn't say a word in rebuttal, simply turning and walking toward the door.
But just as he stepped through the doorway,
He stopped.
He paused in his tracks, and a teasing voice drifted back into the room.
"Oh, right."
"Madam Ye's treatment was interrupted. In three minutes, her whole body will be wracked with pain, and she'll be shaking like a leaf."
"In five minutes, she will bleed from her mouth and nose, and her meridians will flow in reverse."
"And in half a month, she will definitely be dead."
What!
The Ye Family was stunned for a moment, then flew into a rage.
They couldn't believe that Lin Han, that stray dog, would dare to curse Madam Ye on his way out!
In an instant,
the Ye Family erupted in a chorus of curses.
Only Little Divine Physician Zhang Lingfeng felt a flicker of doubt in his heart.
After all,
although everyone thought he had just cured the matriarch, he knew perfectly well that all he did was remove the needles. He hadn't administered any treatment at all.
"Madam Ye, how are you feeling right now?"
At his question,
everyone's attention focused on Madam Ye once more.
"Thank you for saving me, Little Divine Physician. I feel wonderful!"
As she spoke, Madam Ye slowly moved her legs.
Then, she stood up from the bed!
The room gasped.
The Ye Family was completely euphoric!
To them, it was as if Madam Ye had made a full recovery; there wasn't the slightest sign of illness.
Just then,
"Someone from the Tang Family is here to see Madam Ye!" The butler's voice came from the doorway.
The announcement startled everyone.
The Tang Family?
They were one of the most powerful families in Jiang City. Normally, the Ye Family wasn't even qualified to have any dealings with the Tang Family.
But today…
"Quick… quickly show them in!" Madam Ye said hurriedly.
Soon, the butler led four men in black suits into the room.
These four were Old Master Tang's personal bodyguards.
Despite them being mere bodyguards, Madam Ye dared not be disrespectful. She hurried to ask with an obsequious smile,
"You gentlemen have come on behalf of the Tang Family. Is there something I can help you with?"
At that moment,
the four bodyguards scanned the room. Their brows furrowed when they didn't see Lin Han.
"Madam Ye, is Mr. Lin Han still with your family?"
Lin Han!
Hearing this, Madam Ye, Ye Qing, and the others felt their hearts skip a beat.
'Could it be that Lin Han has some connection to the Tang Family?'
Instantly,
Madam Ye became incredibly nervous, but she had no choice but to brace herself and answer,
"Lin Han has already left!"
Left?
A look of deep disappointment appeared on the faces of the four bodyguards. Without another word, they clasped their fists in a brief salute, turned, and left.
Seeing this,
the entire Ye Family was dumbfounded.
'Could it be? Is Lin Han really connected to the Tang Family?'
If so, with just a single word from him, the Tang Family could crush the Ye Family in an instant.
The Ye Family began to panic.
But just then,
after making a phone call, Gao Jianxiang suddenly burst out laughing.
"Hahaha, everyone, don't worry! I just got the full story!"
"That idiot Lin Han hit Old Master Tang right after he got off the plane!"
"Now, the Tang Family is hunting him down! He's a dead man!"
PHEW!
At these words, Madam Ye and the others let out a collective sigh of relief.
It was over.
That stray dog, Lin Han, was finished!
"Hahaha, that stray dog is pathetic! Daring to curse Madam Ye before he left, not knowing his own death was imminent!"
"Exactly! Madam Ye has made a full recovery. That guy was just spouting curses. He deserves to die!"
"…"
Thinking of Lin Han's earlier words, the Ye Family could only see them as a joke.
However,
their voices had barely faded when…
"Grandma, why are your hands shaking so badly?" Ye Qing's panicked voice made everyone freeze.
Everyone saw it clearly.
Madam Ye's hands had begun to tremble uncontrollably.
Then her legs started to tremble, too.
Her whole body was shaking like a leaf.
BOOM!
This scene sent a jolt through everyone's heart.
In three minutes, she would be shaking like a leaf.
In five minutes, she would bleed from her mouth and nose, her meridians flowing in reverse.
Lin Han's words echoed involuntarily in each of their minds.
'This… could this actually be happening?'
"Little Divine Physician, quick! Save my grandma!" Ye Qing cried out.
However,
after Little Divine Physician Zhang Lingfeng rushed forward to examine her, his face turned deathly pale.
"How can this be? Madam Ye's body… it shows no signs of illness at all!"
What!
The members of the Ye Family couldn't believe their ears.
But before they could even ask,
SPUTTER!
Streams of blood suddenly gushed from Madam Ye's nose and mouth.
Her face was ashen.
And then,
With a THUD, she collapsed to the ground.
