Chapter 262 The Princess's "Ascension to the Throne"; Family Banquet; The Extraordinary Xiao Song; "Mother"; "The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau"

The doctor's words were like a pebble thrown into a calm lake.

The members of the expert team, who were originally only temporarily assembled because of Zhou Linchuan's special status, were all slightly taken aback.

Someone instinctively said, "How is that possible? Mr. Zhou's condition tonight is very..."

The leading figure in the field of neurology subconsciously looked at the instrument, swallowing back the rest of his words.

A look of disbelief.

"No, how is that possible?"

After a while.

Everyone gathered around the instrument by the bed, marveling at it.

"Mr. Zhou's situation is a bit unusual!"

"Hey, this is a bit ridiculous. Just now, the scans and data showed that I needed surgery, but now all the indicators are normal?"

"Could there be something wrong with our data?"

"Is it a problem with the equipment?"

A group of experts simply couldn't understand what was happening.

Their voices weren't loud, but the shock on their faces was intense. As they spoke, they looked at Zhou Linchuan, who was fast asleep on the bed.

His complexion was rosy and his breathing was steady.

This doesn't look like a little old man who just had a brush with death.

"All indicators are very normal, which is indeed a bit strange. It's not convenient to disturb you tonight. We will conduct another thorough check tomorrow morning to make sure that nothing goes wrong."

The senior doctor, who was leading the group of experts, turned his gaze to Yan Lei, who looked somewhat haggard but was in good spirits.

Smiling, she said, "Don't worry, Teacher Yan. Although we don't know why yet, Mr. Zhou is in very good condition. It seems that he doesn't need surgery. He'll have a check-up tomorrow morning, and if there are no other problems, he can be discharged after some observation!"

"Oh, really? That's wonderful, thank you so much!"

That's why they say women are born actresses; Yan Lei didn't show the slightest reaction that I already knew.

Deep down, she was far more shocked than the group of puzzled doctors.

Just moments ago, she had witnessed firsthand how her son-in-law, Song, treated Old Zhou with acupuncture needles.

Even the needles were bought by my daughter!

The group of doctors looked at each other, and to be honest, they felt somewhat unworthy of Yan Lei's gratitude.

Because tonight, they simply did what they were supposed to do.

Zhou Linchuan did indeed have a special status and position.

But in the face of illness, everyone is equal, and no one is more noble.

The only difference is that, given Zhou Linchuan's wealth, he can enjoy top-tier medical resources.

For example, those of them who are now in the ward.

Ordinary people would most likely not enjoy this kind of treatment.

But that's about it.

They are not gods; they cannot snatch someone who was destined to die back from the clutches of the King of Hell.

The group whispered a few words of comfort to Yan Lei, then looked curiously at Song Dao and Yan Yu, who were also staying in the ward.

Feeling relieved.

Everyone said that this young top star in the entertainment industry was dating Lin Fei, but it turns out his girlfriend is the princess of Linchuan Group.

Come to think of it, Yan Yu's looks are just as good as Lin Fei's.

And their status is even more prestigious!
If it were them, they would most likely choose Yan Yu, right?

However, the group that came were all elderly, expert-level doctors, and no one was gossiping about such things.

He left quickly, filled with intense confusion.

The three of them escorted the person out.

Looking at Wang Yiyi, who was still guarding the outer room.

Yan Lei said softly, "Yi Yi, President Zhou is fine now. You should get some rest too. After your check-up tomorrow morning, you should be able to be discharged."

Wang Yiyi was a little dazed after a whole night of fear and anxiety.

She was in the outer room the whole time, but had no idea what "thrilling" things were happening inside.

However, upon hearing that the boss was alright, he breathed a sigh of relief, and his eyes finally turned a little red.

"That's great! The boss is a lucky man!"

Yan Lei glanced at Song Dao beside her, thinking to herself, "Perhaps, but Old Zhou's sky is our son-in-law..."

Back in the inner room.

A huge weight that had been hanging over my heart finally lifted.

Yan Lei was also filled with mixed feelings.

Looking at Song Dao and Yan Yu, he said, "You two don't need to stay here anymore, go back and rest."

She didn't say anything more to Song Dao about thanking him.

We're family, there's plenty of time in the future.

Anyway, whoever comes now can forget about stealing her son-in-law.

Song Dao shook her head: "It's alright, Auntie. It's you who worried all night. There's a bed over there, get some sleep. Yan Yan and I will make do on the sofa and take a nap. Tomorrow, after Uncle's check-up, we'll go through the discharge procedures together..."

"Forget it, let's go home." Yan Yu shook her head. "There are too many people during the day, and it's not good to be photographed. Anyway, my dad is fine now, and I can come over by myself first thing tomorrow morning."

Yan Lei agreed: "Yes, you're a celebrity, it's not good to be photographed. Since nothing's wrong, there's no need for everyone to stay here and wait."

Song thought for a moment, then went over to check on Lao Zhou's condition. He felt that Lao Zhou was indeed alright, so he didn't insist.

He is currently very exhausted and plans to go back and gradually process the remaining medical information and the results of his crazy lottery draw.

This night was also incredibly exciting for him.

Although it is not "mystical" at all.

In essence, the "acupuncture" and unparalleled "traditional Chinese medicine" skills he currently possesses are no different from his previous "piano" and "suona" skills.

All of this was experience and knowledge directly given to him by the system.

But this is a medical technique that can cure diseases and save lives!
The "miracle drugs" that appear in the system's store are indeed amazing, but they are ultimately bestowed by external forces.

And this medical skill, like other skills and experiences, once learned, becomes one's own.

I sent a message to Xiaobai.

Bai Yue, who was sleeping in the car with the seat reclined, replied a dozen seconds later.

After getting in the car.

Yan Yu looked at Bai Yue, who had just woken up, with some apology: "Thank you for your hard work, Xiao Bai."

Bai Yue said, "It's not hard on you, sister. Is President Zhou alright?"

"Okay, it's alright now!"

Yan Yu held Song Dao's hand tightly.

It was past 2 a.m. when I got back to my home in Qinyuan.

After a quick wash, the two went into the bedroom together.

Lin Fei was somewhat bewildered by their unexpected return, and looked at the two of them with sleepy eyes.

"Why are you back? Is Uncle alright?"

The mature woman, who had been holding back all night, pounced on Lin Fei and gave her a big kiss on her smooth cheek.

"Sister Fei, I have something to tell you..."

Lin Fei: "..."

I was quite sleepy.

After Song Dao and Yan Yu left, she, Chu Peining, Xia Hong, Qin Lang, and a few others had a few drinks at Teacher Yin's house.

Because they had lost interest, the event ended quickly.

After I got back, I took a shower and went to bed early.

However, as Yan Yu continued her story, the Queen Sister was no longer sleepy.

She looked at her teacher, Ms. Song, incredulously: "You can even cure illnesses?"

Looking at the young lady whose black hair cascaded down her chest, revealing a large expanse of fair skin, the stunningly beautiful girl's face was filled with surprise and awe.

That night, the man, who was also filled with anxiety deep down, laughed and said, "Don't you know whether I can cure diseases or not?"

Looking into the man's aggressive gaze, Lin Fei blushed and spat, "Don't you even know what time it is!"

Song Dao didn't take it seriously: "Let's fight until dawn!"

of course.

It was just a joke.

After Yan Yu excitedly recounted what had happened that night, the tired family of three embraced and fell asleep.

Song Dao, who had begun to "absorb knowledge" in large quantities, broke the "record" during this sleep.

……

noon the next day.

Looking at Song Dao, who was still sleeping in bed, Lin Fei clicked her tongue in amazement.

Yan Yu went to the hospital early in the morning.

Upon discovering that Teacher Song, whose biological clock is always perfectly regular, was still asleep, Lin Fei told her that treating her father's illness last night might have been too mentally taxing.

"Let him sleep a little longer."

The older sister gave instructions before she left.

Lin Fei thought she would recover quickly.

But until noon, she received a call from Yan Yu, who said that after a systematic examination, her father found that the problems in his brain had completely disappeared.

Song was still asleep.

Lin Fei was a little worried, so she didn't go to the company.

Stay home and take care of Teacher Song.

But in her heart, she was thinking about what Yan Yan had said to her on the phone earlier, when she was a little emotional.

In the words of the hospital experts: It's simply a medical miracle!

Yan Lei would never "betray" her own son-in-law.

The experts at the hospital can only attribute it to "mysticism".

—Mr. Zhou is a lucky man, and for some reason, he resolved those deadly "blood clots" on his own.

It's really unfair to say that a group of big names in the medical field are superstitious.

Based on Zhou Linchuan's condition when he was sent to the hospital last night, craniotomy was almost a certainty.

Who would have thought that in just one night, no, a few hours later, everything would be fine?
However, the black blood flowing from Old Zhou's head attracted the attention of some people.

However, the cause could not be determined at all.

Because no one could believe that among the people in the room last night, there was actually a "miracle doctor".

If there were any experienced traditional Chinese medicine practitioners here, someone would probably be able to guess that acupuncture was used.

The problem is, which of Yan Lei, Song Dao, Yan Yu, and Wang Yiyi seems to know medicine?
Besides, if there really were such people, there would have been no need for them to go to the hospital last night, right?
That's why those medical experts said this matter was full of mystical elements and quite incredible.

However, everyone was put on a gag order.

This is no joke.

It could even damage the hospital's reputation.

Anyway, Mr. Zhou is fine in the end, so everything is great!

……

the other side.

Zhou Linchuan, supported by his wife and daughter, took a car home.

The shock to my heart was even more intense.

As someone who experienced it firsthand, he is all too aware of his current physical condition.

Even without those modern instruments to test him, he knew that he was in better condition than ever before!

If it weren't for his wife and daughter insisting on supporting him carefully, and not wanting to disappoint them, Old Zhou felt he could have jumped down several steps in one go.

I feel lighter than ever before, and full of energy.

When Lao Zhou made that decision last night, there was actually an element of "gambling" involved.

My condition was terrible at the time.

My head is splitting with pain; I feel like I'm dying!
In that state, let alone Song Dao, even if another traditional Chinese medicine doctor were around, they would not have said that acupuncture could treat it.

He would agree to that too!
I'm not looking to cure it, I just want to relieve the pain!

As a result, Song Dao pressed a few times, and his headache disappeared, allowing him to fall into a deep sleep.

He hadn't had such a sweet sleep in a long time.

It feels really great.

When he woke up, all the doctors, the top experts in the field, were looking at him with shock.

Then tell him: Mr. Zhou, you're alright now!

This feeling is indescribable.

It is only when people experience such things that they realize that wealth, fame, and status are all external things.

Nothing is more important than health.

Accompanied by his wife and daughter, on the way home, Zhou Linchuan looked at the bustling traffic outside, and at the tender green trees and beautiful flowers by the roadside. This scene, which was usually so ordinary, made his eyes slightly moist.

I suddenly realized that in all these years of being busy and immersed in various meetings and social engagements, I have missed so much of the beautiful scenery around me.

"It's so good to be alive and healthy! Leilei, I'll hand over my work to Yanyan as soon as possible, and then let's go on a trip!"

Zhou Linchuan said with some emotion.

“Okay, we’ll bring Yi Yi along, and we’ll go together.” Yan Lei replied gently.

Zhou Linchuan was slightly taken aback, then chuckled dryly, "Why bring her along? I'm already planning to retire, I can just assign her any position later."

Yan Lei asked, "Do you know what happened after you were taken to the hospital unconscious last night?"

Zhou Linchuan's smile vanished as he thought of his rebellious son, Zhou Zhenghai, and he said coldly, "Is someone trying to cause trouble?"

Yan Lei shook her head: "No, but Yi Yi's performance has impressed me. Let's take her with us. It's no big deal. If she's willing, we can let her follow Yan Yan later."

Zhou Linchuan turned his head and carefully examined his wife. Seeing that she didn't seem to be joking, he asked with some doubt, "Isn't Yan Yan the one who hates her the most?"

The couple were in one car, while Yan Yu was in another car with a privacy partition raised in the back, making it convenient to talk.

Yan Lei briefly recounted the events of the previous night to Zhou Linchuan.

He then said, "Yi-yi is still very loyal to you. She's so much younger than you, yet she's stayed with you to this extent. She can handle things calmly and rationally when you're in danger, so I'm quite at ease with her."

She didn't mention the women Zhou had been seeing outside, or how Zhou Zhenghai and his mother would react.

Given her status, she wouldn't stoop to saying such things.

Zhou Linchuan wasn't stupid; he knew better than anyone how those people would react.

She didn't need to say anything.

Zhou Linchuan was silent for a moment, then took Yan Lei's hand and said, "You've suffered these past years."

Yan Lei's eyes were a little moist. She smiled gently and held her husband's hand in return, saying, "Last night, I saw how Yan Yan and Song Dao interacted. To be honest, I was quite moved. Over the years, I thought I had lived a very self-centered life, but that's really not true."

After many years of marriage, Zhou Linchuan knew what his wife was talking about. He sighed and said, "Our generation, or rather the vast majority of us, who doesn't live in the eyes of others?"

Yan Lei nodded: "So last night I suddenly envied my daughter and the others. They were able to truly ignore worldly opinions and fully immerse themselves in their relationships, reaching a point where their feelings were their own and they didn't care what others said. That's amazing!"

Zhou Linchuan thought for a moment and said, "Song is still the most capable!"

If you were to ask someone else to emulate the legendary beauties Ehuang and Nüying, would you try again?

Yan Lei nodded and said, "She's really amazing. I used to think we were doing our daughter a disservice. If it weren't for her psychological issues, we would never have agreed to this arrangement. But now I realize that all along, it's been our Yan Yan who's been marrying above her station..."

Zhou Linchuan: "Yan Yan is just as good!"

Yan Lei chuckled.

Whether it's drafty or not, it's still my own little darling.

The reason she still cares about Lao Zhou after going through so much is because...

This is not unrelated.

It's not just that he's "clear-headed," but also that in Lao Zhou's mind, although he has many children, none of them can surpass Yan Yu's status.

……

a few days later.

Linchuan Group has undergone a series of personnel changes.

First, Zhou Zhenghai, the "assistant general manager," resigned.

Despite his deep resentment, Zhou Zhenghai, who had neither shares in the group nor formed his own faction, was powerless to resist his father's decision.

The good news for the mother and son was that Zhou Linchuan was alright.

After receiving a sum of money, she, like some of the other women around Zhou Zhenghai, quietly left Xia Guo.

Subsequently, a company vice president resigned.

It is said that this vice president has always been firmly opposed to Zhou Linchuan handing the company over to his daughter.

The attitude was firm and intense.

So he left.

Next, Zhou Linchuan transferred most of his shares to his daughter, Yan Yu.

Yan Lei also transferred some of her shares to her daughter.

The former "Princess of Linchuan" has transformed into the group's largest shareholder.

At a board meeting chaired by Chairman Zhou Linchuan, he was appointed as the company's vice chairman, president, and chief executive officer.

Wang Yiyi, the chairman's personal secretary, has been promoted to "assistant general manager" and concurrently serves as the president of the human resources management department.

For Wang Yiyi, this step was absolutely a meteoric rise.

But in fact, having graduated from a prestigious university and spent so many years by Zhou Linchuan's side, she had long since acquired this ability.

By elevating her to this position, Lao Zhou wasn't trying to place a spy next to his daughter, but rather to have her, along with several other veterans, specifically assist Yan Yu.

As Wang Yiyi had said, once everything stabilized, she could resign at any time if Yan Yu needed her.

Because by then, she wouldn't be so young anymore, and there wouldn't be any more "succession" competition within the Linchuan Group.

You can now relax and have your own child.

Despite the swift and discreet nature of these actions, the news still caused quite a stir in the secondary market, given that the company is required to disclose information.

It not only made headlines in financial media, but also caused quite a stir in the entertainment industry.

Countless netizens are lamenting: It's over, our red-dress goddess is probably going to be a legend forever!
As the new head of a super conglomerate, Yan Yu can hardly appear on stage as she used to, with bright red lips and a flamboyant red dress.

This change in identity, in the eyes of outsiders, seems to have immediately distanced him from people like Song Dao and Lin Fei.

As many netizens have said: From princess to empress, the red-dress goddess's glamorous transformation will inevitably lead her further and further away from Song.

In everyone's opinion, Zhou Linchuan, who still retains his position as chairman of the group, would not allow his daughter to continue associating with Song Lai.

Even if Song Dao is a genius!

He is also an outstanding young entrepreneur who has amassed a fortune of 10 billion yuan in less than three years since his debut.

The gap between the two sides is simply too large!
But the reality is quite different!
……

"Honey, honey, do I look good in this outfit?"

Yan Yu wore a black dress with gold accents, which made her look serious and dignified.

If it weren't for her lively bun hairstyle and that extremely young and beautiful face, she would look more like a queen.

Song Dao glanced at her from head to toe, his gaze lingering on a certain spot, and said, "Can you lift it up from the bottom? When you put it on just now, I felt like there were several layers of lining underneath? You can't lift it up, can you?"

Yan Yu blushed and spat at the lewd man.

Then a hint of tenderness appeared in her peach blossom eyes: "Yes, yes, why don't you give it a try?"

Song was somewhat tempted.

Lin Fei, standing to the side, was speechless: "Are you two ever going to stop? You were still not done after all that last night, were you?"

Even though they've lived together for so long, the diva was still "disgusted" last night.

One of them, who was clearly a complete novice, boasted: "Little brother, lie down properly, your queen sister is here to pamper you!"
One was clearly a big bad wolf, but he lay there pretending to be a little puppy, thrusting his hips to make the queen above him scream.

She said with a submissive expression: "President Yan, please don't do this..."

Pooh!
It's so annoying.

Regarding Yan Yu becoming the new leader of Linchuan, there were no changes within the family of three.

If there's any change, it's only in the way of adding to the fun.

Right now, Yan Yu plans to take Song Dao and Lin Fei to the Zhou family's banquet.

It wasn't just Zhou Linchuan and Yan Lei.

Instead, it was a large-scale family banquet with relatives from the Zhou and Yan families.

Originally, Lin Fei absolutely did not want to go.

What's the point of having an outsider like me at your family's dinner party?
But Yan always refused.

I firmly stated that we are a family of three, and I didn't care what they thought or thought before I took over the business.

Now that Lao Zhou is no longer involved, I need to make them understand my stance even more.

Ultimately, the mature woman didn't want Lin Fei to feel uncomfortable because of her change in status.

I didn't want Song to feel uncomfortable.

If she attends the family banquet with Song Dao, what will people in both families think?
These two are definitely a couple.

Maybe good things are just around the corner.

After all, they're not young anymore.

That would not only make Lin Fei unhappy, but Song Dao would also feel uncomfortable, and she herself... would be even more unhappy!
Nothing is more important than a family of three being together.

Therefore, even at tonight's family dinner, her grandparents and maternal grandparents will be present.

She also wanted to use this method to make everyone take back those words of "blessing".

If you really want to offer blessings, then bless the three of us!

As for Flip Cat and Tongtong, they'll just have to make do for now.

They rarely get involved in matters concerning the East Palace and the West Palace.

……

Zhou family.

The large house, which resembled a manor, was especially lively today.

The banquet had three themes.

The first is to celebrate Zhou Linchuan's "rebirth".

Having walked through the gates of hell, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that one has been reborn.

Secondly, it is to celebrate Zhou Linchuan's eventual "retirement".

Even though he is still very young, after this experience, Lao Zhou has completely come to terms with things.

While I'm in a good state now, I can enjoy a few more years of life.

Thirdly, it was to celebrate the successful handover of the group, with Princess Yan Yu successfully donning the "crown".

Wang Yiyi was in charge of organizing and hosting this family banquet.

The guest list included Song Dao and Lin Fei.

To be honest, both the Zhou and Yan families were speechless when they heard the news.

The two elderly people in the Zhou family are doing well, although they are quite old.

She wasn't particularly sensitive to much information, but she felt it was a bit inappropriate for her son to bring Wang Yiyi to this kind of family dinner.

But when she saw Wang Yiyi by Yan Lei's side, she couldn't bring herself to say anything she wanted to say to her son.

On the Yan family's side.

Not only did the two elderly people and the eldest and youngest uncles come, but Yan Yu's aunt, who had been living overseas, also rushed back because Zhou Linchuan was sick.

When she saw Lin Fei on the guest list, she asked her older sister Yan Lei about it.

"What's going on? Why did we invite her to our family dinner? To sing and entertain? Isn't Yan Yan's boyfriend a really good singer?"

Yan Rui, who is in her early forties this year, is only about ten years older than her niece Yan Yu.

She is also very well-maintained and looks to be only in her thirties.

Yan Lei pulled her aside: "You're abroad, so there are some things you don't know. When they arrive, be careful not to say the wrong thing."

Yan Rui blinked her charming eyes, somewhat curious: "What's going on? It's strange enough that my brother-in-law's secretary showed up at our family dinner. You're not going to tell me that those rumors online are true, are you?"

"What rumors?"

To be honest, Yan Lei doesn't really pay much attention to gossip online.

"That means Song Dao is a womanizer! When I was abroad, many of my friends were talking about this. The guys envied Song Dao's good fortune with women, and the girls were all drooling over him!" Yan Rui said.

Yan Lei: "..."

She looked at her younger sister speechlessly: "First of all, Yi Yi and your brother-in-law don't have that kind of relationship. In our eyes, she's just a very nice little sister."

Yan Rui gave her a look that said, "Do you think I'm stupid?" and refrained from interrupting her sister.

Yan Lei didn't care what her sister thought and continued, "Secondly, don't listen to what people on the internet are saying. The reason we invited Lin Fei over is because Lin Fei was there for Yan Yan when she was at her worst. They are best friends!"

Yan Rui's lips twitched slightly. Although she lived abroad, she had grown up in a large family.

What secrets of the wealthy families in Beijing didn't she know?

Hearing my sister say this, although I found it unbelievable, I was almost certain.

Wang Yiyi has been acknowledged by her older sister!

The relationship between Song Dao, Lin Fei, and Yan Yu is not innocent, but the older sister and brother-in-law have accepted it!

She felt this was somewhat outrageous.

Others might not know, but how could she not understand what kind of person her sister was?

"Sis, tell me about it..."

"What are you saying? You're over forty years old, yet you still act like a child. The guests will be here soon. Anyway, you better watch yourself. Don't talk nonsense, and don't act like a spoiled young lady. Be careful, or Yan Yan will turn on you."

"Hey, I'm all grown up now, and besides, Yan Yan and I are best friends!" Yan Rui said with a smile.

After sending her younger sister away, Yan Lei was called over by her parents again.

Unlike her sister, these two elderly people were not so easy to fool.

Especially Yan Lei's father.

Even though she has been retired for some years, as an elderly person who must be at the top of the list of people to be visited during holidays, no matter how ordinary her clothes are or how kind she looks, her aura is still very strong.

"You guys are being a bit ridiculous. I don't care what Xiao Zhou is like normally, but this is a family banquet. What's his secretary doing here? What, is it that no one in our family can organize this banquet except her?"

The old man went all out right away.

She had always been dissatisfied with her son-in-law's womanizing ways.

However, when it comes to matters concerning the younger generation, no matter how dissatisfied one is, there's nothing one can do.

After all, their daughter never considered getting a divorce.

But bringing people to his side so brazenly made the old man a little uncomfortable.

Is this how you treat my daughter?
"And Yan Yan, is she dating that Xiao Song? I think that kid is alright, but why did they call over a singer?"

The old man's health is not very good, and he usually stays at home.

If her son-in-law hadn't "escaped death" this time, she wouldn't have come.

"Dad, it's like this..."

Yan Lei, without hiding anything from her elderly father, briefly recounted what had happened that night.

Aside from telling a little lie about the relationship between Song Dao, Yan Yu, and Lin Fei, saying that Lin Fei was Yan Yu's best friend and like a close relative.

The rest were basically told to the truth.

Yan Lei looked at the old man: "Xiao Song and Yan Yan are not dating, they are just very good friends. I invited him here today because of my own selfish reasons. I want him to take a look at you, Mom, and my parents-in-law to see if there is anything that needs to be treated, especially for you..."

When Old Master Yan heard that his granddaughter was no longer dating Song Dao, he looked somewhat surprised.

Every time his youngest son, Yan Cheng, went back home, he would lavish praise on Song Dao in front of him.

The tone clearly implied that he was saying how outstanding his nephew-in-law was.

The result... wasn't it?
That's not so bad. The key issue is that a young man who can write songs, sing, play musical instruments, and write poetry and calligraphy is also a first-rate doctor.
Does he have a lineage of traditional Chinese medicine?
Isn’t this too ridiculous?

Old Master Yan looked incredulous; he wasn't that old to the point of being senile.

Not only was he not senile, but his mind remained sharp.

He frowned and said, "You mean to say that Xiao Zhou's miraculous survival wasn't just luck? It was Song Dao who cured him with acupuncture?"

Yan Lei nodded: "I was here, which is why we invited him to this family dinner. On the one hand, to express our gratitude, and on the other hand, to have him show you around."

In both she and Zhou Linchuan's hearts, Song Dao was already considered their son-in-law.

But since their daughter isn't getting married and Song Dao has other people in the picture, this kind of relationship can only be revealed when it's just the two of them and Song Dao and Yan Yu present.

"If that's the case, expressing gratitude is the right thing to do, but I still find it a little hard to believe..."

Yan Lei brought up the examples Song Dao had given her: "Da Vinci, Nikola Tesla... you know them, right? This kid, Song, is a genius just like them!"

The old man didn't continue saying he didn't believe it, but instead said, "Then when he comes over later, call him over so I can see him. I'll say, why is it that only foreign countries can produce such geniuses? Why don't we have any?" Heh.

The old man's mindset changed quite quickly.

But for Yan Yu, this is a good thing.

To be honest, she and Lao Zhou really put in a lot of effort to help Song Dao and Lin Fei fully integrate.

Perhaps some people think this is unnecessary.

But the reality is not so.

The sooner this matter is dealt with, the less likely it is to cause any unexpected problems later.

Just like back then.

When women started appearing around Lao Zhou, it was she who suppressed them.

Otherwise, where would Linchuan Group come from?
Do you really think that Old Master Yan, her elder brother, and the rest of the family are all good-natured?
The sooner you deal with many things, the better you can prevent them from happening in the first place.

What a delightful scene of carnage... For a family like theirs, it's nothing short of a disaster.

This must not be allowed to happen.

For example, having Song Dao and Lin Fei sing a song on the spot would have been impossible if she hadn't given prior notice.

Yan Rui is highly likely to be capable of doing it.

otherwise.

Why did you show up at my family dinner?

These people need to know that Song Dao and Lin Fei are family.

……

So when Song Dao and his family of three, Lin Fei and Yan Yu, arrived, the atmosphere was very harmonious.

Even Yan Yu's aunt, who is a bit of a "fussy mom," was very kind when she saw Song Dao and Lin Fei.

Needless to say, my uncle and aunt are also very close to me.

I have always been a loyal fan of Song Dao and Lin Fei.

The "selfish motives" of Lao Zhou and Yan Lei are currently limited to their respective parents.

The other siblings are all in good health, so there's no need to let them know for now.

So as soon as the family of three arrived, Yan Yu took Lin Fei's hand and greeted the relatives.

Song Dao was then enthusiastically pulled away by Yan Lei and Lao Zhou.

First, they introduced him to four elderly people.

Old Zhou: "These are my parents. You can just call them grandpa and grandma."

My grandson-in-law, it's perfectly fine for him to call me grandpa and grandma.

Old Zhou's father was also a retired cadre who had served in the military for many years.

He smiled and looked at Song Dao: "The other day, you and Lin Fei went to the front line of flood relief to perform for the soldiers. That song you sang was really good!"

"Thank you for the compliment, Grandpa," Song said politely.

Old Zhou's mother then took out a large red envelope from her person.

This was prepared in advance by Yan Lei at Wang Yiyi's request.

In a sense, this family dinner was also a kind of "new son-in-law visiting the family".

This new son-in-law is a bit too much; he even brought along another wife...

Even more outrageous, Yan Lei also prepared a red envelope!
"Grandma, what are you doing? I can't accept this." Song Dao tried to politely refuse.

Although that's the situation, we still have to put on a show at least.

—Lin Fei is Yan Yan's sister, and he cured Lao Zhou.

"Child, take this quickly, it's just a small token of Grandma's appreciation." The old lady said kindly, her face full of gentle warmth.

Yan Lei and Lao Zhou said from the side, "This is a small token of Grandma's appreciation, please take it!"

Song was somewhat speechless, but also quite touched.

He's such a grown man, and apart from the red envelopes his grandmother in this world gave him, he's never received any other.

Moreover, what appears to be a red envelope is actually more of an attitude.

Turning her head, Yan Lei's mother also took out a large red envelope and handed it to Song Dao.

Their attitude was also very kind.

Old Yan, however, remained silent, but his gaze held a hint of scrutiny.

Even now, he still doesn't quite believe what his daughter says.

How could a young person, no matter how talented, solve a problem that might not even be curable with brain surgery?

But to say that Song Dao was a charlatan doesn't seem quite right.

He's young, handsome, famous, and rich; there's absolutely no need for him to do something like this.

Then Yan Lei smiled and asked Song to give the elderly a medical check-up.

Before this happened, I told him about it through Yan Yan.

Song did not refuse. He first took Grandma Zhou's pulse and said, "Grandma is in good health, but she has a slight heart problem. I will write a prescription for you later. Auntie, please do not go to a regular pharmacy. Have someone get some wild Chinese medicinal herbs. It should only cost a few hundred yuan. I will write it out clearly. Follow that dosage and drink it for half a month."

Grandma Zhou was a little surprised and couldn't help but glance at her son.

Old Zhou shook his head: "I haven't told Xiao Song anything that even Yan Yan doesn't know."

The old lady does have a minor heart problem and takes medication for a period of time every spring and autumn.

But it wasn't serious, so Yan Yu didn't know about it for so many years.

Only the son and daughter-in-law know about this.

After demonstrating his skills, the other three old men finally started to take it seriously.

I feel that Song is a really talented kid.

Song then took Grandpa Zhou's pulse. As soon as his fingers touched Grandpa Zhou's wrist, his brows furrowed slightly.

"Grandpa, do you have gout?"

The old man was a little surprised: "You can tell that from a pulse?"

Yan Lei and Lao Zhou exchanged a glance, both seeing surprise in each other's eyes.

Sure enough, this child's skills were far more than just acupuncture.

With their wealth, they certainly wouldn't be unable to afford medical treatment.

However, some problems are simply beyond the reach of modern medicine.

Old Yan and his wife's eyes lit up as well.

Even the most powerful people are equal in the face of illness.

Who wouldn't want to know a great doctor?
Song Dao smiled and said, "Of course it is possible. Gout wasn't actually first discovered by Western medicine. We had a much earlier and more advanced solution than they did. There are relevant records in Zhang Zhongjing's *Essential Prescriptions of the Golden Chamber* from the Han Dynasty..."

Actually, it's also mentioned in the earlier Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic!

But that's too far in the future, there's no need to scare people by saying it.

Grandpa Zhou looked at Song Dao with anticipation: "Is there a way to solve this?"

Old Zhou chimed in, "My dad's had this problem for years. He can't drink alcohol or eat anything he wants. If he eats anything good, he has to take his medicine right away. It's really torturous."

Song Dao said, "In the view of traditional Chinese medicine, the formation of gout is caused by external factors such as congenital deficiency and spleen and kidney deficiency; internal factors such as improper diet and external invasion of damp heat or cold dampness, which leads to the accumulation of dampness, phlegm and blood stasis in the body. It takes some time to cure it completely."

"Can it be cured completely?" Grandpa Zhou's eyes widened.

The old man was so old; he never imagined such a day would come.

Old Zhou and Yan Lei were also somewhat surprised.

This problem may seem insignificant, but it can be quite deadly when it flares up.

It's not a terminal illness, but calling it a global problem doesn't seem like an exaggeration.

Song Dao said, "Actually, many problems are not due to a lack of effective enforcement. On the one hand, many things have been lost, and many medicinal herbs are not so easy to find; on the other hand, it's because of interests..."

He didn't continue, but everyone present understood.

Many diseases are not incurable, nor do they necessarily require a large amount of medication, just like Song's original timeline.

When I was a child, one capsule was usually enough to cure a cold.

Many years later, neither box may be enough to cure the condition.

Actually, even if you don't eat it, it usually gets better on its own within a week.

Sometimes, even after taking medicine, it doesn't get better for half a month.

"If this could really be cured, that would be amazing! It could save so many lives!" Grandpa Zhou exclaimed.

“This medicinal herb is not easy to find. You’re definitely fine with it; your uncle can arrange for someone to collect it. But for ordinary people, finding these herbs isn’t so easy.”

Song thought for a moment and said, "So it's not that easy to promote it on a large scale."

"Sigh, that's true. Actually, in ancient times, traditional Chinese medicine wasn't bad either, it's just that some medicinal materials were too rare and too expensive, beyond the reach of ordinary people," Grandpa Zhou sighed.

Song quickly wrote down another prescription.

But in her heart she was thinking that there were many effective and inexpensive recipes, and if she had the chance in the future, she could use her uncle's connections to publish the book.

As for how many people can be saved, that depends on fate.

In his original timeline, there were also many books like this, but not many people read them.

Those who study traditional Chinese medicine also vary in quality.

To carry it forward and make it flourish is a long and arduous task.

Next, they took Yan Yu's mother's pulse.

"Do you have trigeminal neuralgia?"

In fact, many problems in the field of traditional Chinese medicine are "systemic" and do not have such specific names.

However, in order to make it easier to understand, Song Dao directly used the naming method from Western medicine.

Studying medicine is about saving lives, not about comparing who is more noble.

It's easy to use.

The old lady became agitated: "Yes, it hurts whenever I get a fever. They keep telling me to have surgery, but I'm scared and don't want to go..."

Song Dao laughed and said, "That's easy. You must be in a lot of pain right now, right?"

The old lady nodded repeatedly and glanced at her son-in-law.

Song understood immediately; the man must have heard about Lao Zhou's accident and was upset.

"Okay, I'll give you a few acupuncture needles, and you'll be fine in no time."

Song didn't hesitate. He took out a set of acupuncture needles that the older sister had prepared in advance, and while disinfecting them, he chatted with the old lady.

Then I just casually picked one up, and another one at random.

Everyone present was stunned.

Old Zhou was also shocked.

Finally, we can see how this young man administers acupuncture.

It’s simply awesome!

He fell asleep that night, and afterwards he could only hear his wife describe what happened.

The couple were already planning to ask Xiao Song to take a look at their elderly relative and give him some treatment.

However, they agreed that this matter should not be revealed to outsiders.

After all, Song Dao didn't even have a medical license, so why did he hide it from outsiders that night?

If this gets out, it will definitely cause a huge controversy.

After Song inserted needles into several acupoints on the old lady's face, he smiled and asked her, "Grandma, how do you feel?"

"Hey, it doesn't hurt anymore, it really doesn't hurt anymore! It feels a little tingly and numb, it's so comfortable." The old lady even had tears in her eyes.

Yan Lei also looked at Song Dao with gratitude.

He asked cautiously, "Little Song, how many sessions will it take? Can this problem be cured completely?"

Song Dao smiled and said, "This time is enough."

Everyone looked on incredulously.

Even the usually reserved Mr. Yan could no longer maintain his composure.

He muttered to himself, "Why do so many big hospitals perform nerve-removing surgery and prescribe all sorts of medications for such a simple problem? I've also seen many traditional Chinese medicine doctors, but they only treat the symptoms, not the root cause..."

Song Dao said, "Modern medicine can only treat it that way. As for traditional Chinese medicine... it's not simple for them either."

These are all acupuncture techniques that have long been lost; how could they be simple?
As he spoke, he took Old Man Yan's pulse, then smiled and said, "Grandpa's health is the best. If he could just lose his temper less often and not be so hot-tempered, it would be even better."

Elder Yan: "..."

He knew, in fact, that he was perfectly healthy.

After all, there is always a medical team around, and the check-ups are not done a few times a year, but rather some simple tests, which are done once every one or two months.

But after what this kid said, I felt like I had no secrets left from him.

He never loses his temper when he's out.

He doesn't even get angry at his wife.

He often mutters and curses to himself in his study...

Zhou Linchuan was unaware of this habit of his.

Only her daughter, Yan Lei, knew.

"However, you've been having trouble sleeping lately. I can prescribe a little medicine and make some tea. Drinking it occasionally will help."

Song quickly wrote another piece of paper for Yan Lei.

Yan Lei happily accepted it, finding her son-in-law more and more pleasing to the eye. She asked, "Can we drink this too?"

Song Dao smiled and said, "It's fine. It's relatively mild, and it's okay to drink it year-round."

Then, as if remembering something, he said, "I'll write you a prescription later. Once you've gathered all the herbs, I'll brew you something to eat that can nourish your skin and detoxify your body."

Mother-in-law, you must answer correctly.

In particular, Yan Lei and Lao Zhou have never looked down on her from the beginning until now.

They didn't even mention Lin Fei's existence.

Whether or not to get married is one thing, but to have met such an elder is certainly his good fortune.

Yan Lei immediately beamed with joy.

The changes in her daughter had long made her envious.

Therefore, the saying "a son-in-law is half a son" is absolutely true!

Then Song Dao removed the needles from Yan Lei's mother's face.

The old lady was still somewhat "reluctant to leave".

"Is this the end?"

"Yes, Grandma, this isn't too serious. It only needs to be done once, and it won't happen again."

"Phew!" The old lady breathed a sigh of relief. "That's wonderful, Xiao Song, you're such a good child, thank you so much!"

Song Dao laughed and said, "As long as you're not afraid that I'll practice medicine without a license, that's fine."

The old woman said, "We're all family, it doesn't count as practicing medicine!"

Song arrived with Yan Lei and Lao Zhou in less than twenty minutes.

When Wang Yiyi arrived and cautiously announced that the banquet was about to begin, everyone was surprised to find that the four elders treated Song Dao with an almost unbelievable level of kindness!

Even someone like Elder Yan, who once held a high position and great power, looked at Song Dao with particularly gentle eyes.

Then he met Lin Fei and even praised her a couple of times.

This greatly surprised people such as Yan Yu's aunt and her younger aunt Yan Rui.

They didn't believe the old man couldn't understand the complex, unspoken relationship between the young people.

Based on his usual temperament, he wouldn't say anything to her face, but he would definitely ignore her.

what is it today?
The eldest uncle and the youngest uncle exchanged a glance, both feeling that something was off today.

It seems that Zhou Linchuan and Yan Lei are hiding something from them.

But no matter how hard they racked their brains, they couldn't figure out the reason.

Who would believe that a young man who sings is actually a miracle doctor who could pull Old Zhou back from the brink of brain surgery?
When the group sat down at the large dining table, Song Dao was surprisingly seated between Elder Zhou and Elder Yan.

This position used to belong to Zhou Linchuan...

The elders were completely baffled, and the younger members of the Yan and Zhou families who had come to the banquet were trembling with fear.

They were all thinking to themselves: God is truly awesome!
Even Song himself couldn't help but feel a sense of gratitude for this special treatment.

Even the most brilliant scholar is no match for a miracle doctor who can save lives.

This status is truly different!

Wang Yiyi did not sit at the table.

Even though Yan Lei invited her twice earnestly, this girl with extremely high emotional intelligence still kept to herself.

He smiled and said that he was there to provide service.

Yan Yu stayed with Lin Fei the whole time; anyone who didn't know better would have thought there was something going on between them.

To be honest, several of the younger members of the Yan and Zhou families were looking at the two of them with a strange expression.

After all, the two had a good relationship before they met Song Dao. They were both homebodies and would often get together for meals and beauty treatments.

So, was Song Dao just a smokescreen?
Why was he able to appear at today's family dinner and even sit in the "guest of honor" seat?

I can't understand it, I can't understand it at all.

Even if you don't understand it, just respect it.

And Zhou Linchuan, Yan Lei, and Yan Yu's purpose in inviting Song Dao and Lin Fei today has now been basically achieved.

During the meal, several elderly people even took the initiative to raise their glasses and have a drink with Song.

This left Yan Rui, a relatively young elder, completely bewildered.

Yan Cheng was very happy; he genuinely liked Song Dao.

As one of the very few people who knew more about the inside story, he and his elder brother were both extremely fond of the books written by Song Dao.

The older brother is more composed, while he is relatively more lively.

He drank several cups with Song in succession.

He got a little tipsy. Old Zhou had just been discharged from the hospital and hadn't drunk any alcohol today, but he felt he should take on the role of livening up the atmosphere.

So he wanted to have a match with this young man, Song Dao.

Old Master Yan stopped him, saying, "You're such a grown man, why are you so unruly? Why are you drinking so much with Xiao Song? That's enough!"

Yan Cheng remained silent.

No, I'm your real son, aren't I?
How come my old man was perfectly fine when he arrived, but in no time at all, he's treating Song Dao like his own grandson?

No, even a grandson doesn't get this treatment!

After the meal, Song Dao accompanied several elderly people for a walk in the huge manor.

I corrected a minor error in Yan Laowu's Animal Frolics.

If they hadn't known Song was busy, the old folks would have loved to snatch the boy away and take him home for a few more days.

Even Old Master Yan had to admit that the charming and talented man his granddaughter had taken a liking to was indeed extraordinary!
Until the four elderly people were sent away.

Slightly tipsy, Yan Cheng pulled Song Dao aside, insisting that they drink less.

He also brought along his older brother, older sister, and younger sister.

As for Lao Zhou...

Although Mr. Zhou, who had just retired, felt that he could definitely drink a pound of liquor right now.

But even Song Dao didn't dare let him drink a sip.

After all, it's just the right size, and it still needs time to recover.

So Yan Yu and Lin Fei took Wang Yiyi, who had been busy all afternoon, to soak in the hot springs.

Song and the others drank some more.

Because Yan Cheng was relatively familiar with Song Dao, he couldn't help but ask out of curiosity, "Why are my parents and my brother-in-law's parents so nice to you? Tell me, did you accidentally reveal some amazing ability again?"

Although this person holds a very high position, in private their personality remains as lively as it was in their youth.

His older brother glanced at it and frowned slightly.

Yan Cheng said, "Brother, this is a private family dinner. Don't put on airs of your official power. Let me tell you, Xiao Song is an extraordinary person. He definitely..."

The eldest son of the Yan family glanced at his younger sister and brother-in-law, smiled, and interrupted his younger brother, saying, "Was it Xiao Song who solved your brother-in-law's problem?"

Zhou Linchuan and Yan Lei were both a little surprised.

Yan Cheng was even more dumbfounded.

There were only a few of them present, and Yan Yu also invited her aunt and uncle when she went to soak in the hot spring.

So there were only a few people present.

Yan Lei glanced at Song Dao, and seeing no reaction, asked in surprise, "Brother, how did you figure that out?"

Yan Zhong said, "When Mom came, she was complaining about her face hurting, but she just came out looking very relaxed. The way she looked at Xiao Song was even more affectionate than when she looked at her eldest grandson..."

Everyone: "..."

It must be said that people who hold high positions have truly impressive vision.

Seeing his sister's reaction, Yan Zhong knew he had guessed correctly, and his smile widened: "Actually, I guessed it a long time ago!"

Song Dao: ?
It wasn't my uncle; I didn't even know it myself a few days ago!

Yan Zhongdao said, "The books that Xiao Song wrote are all-encompassing, covering a very wide range of knowledge. At the time, I felt that this child must be a very amazing person who had had some extraordinary experiences!"

Yan Cheng: Brother, you're talking about my words! How could a high-ranking leader like you believe in this?

Yan Zhong glanced at him: "It's not just you who likes reading!"

Yan Cheng: "..."

I'm unhappy, as if my childhood memories have been awakened.

His older brother, who is much older than him, has always liked to show off his intelligence in front of him since he was a child.

Why does he love reading so much?
I feel it's caused by childhood psychological trauma!

Unexpectedly, at this age, I still get crushed.

How annoying!

Yan Rui, who had always lived abroad, finally understood why Song Dao was so popular at home.

So he's not only a genius, but also a miracle doctor?

Yan Lei, however, sternly warned her younger sister, "Don't you dare say anything out loud outside!"

Yan Rui: "Who am I supposed to tell? Besides, even if I did tell someone, would anyone believe me?"

Everyone laughed.

After drinking for a while, Yan Zhong gradually relaxed a bit.

In fact, although the four siblings of the Yan family appear to have different personalities on the surface, they are actually quite similar at heart.

Those who grew up in large compounds often had a spirited and ambitious side when they were young.

However, they later found themselves in different fields.

Someone like Yan Zhong, who governs a region, certainly can't be too casual.

But it can be quite interesting after you've had too much to drink.

He even stretched out his hand, asking Song Dao to take his pulse.

Although Song Dao drank quite a bit, the experience he gained over the past few days far surpassed what he had gained when he treated his father-in-law.

His hands are incredibly steady.

Then he smiled and said, "It's nothing serious. I'll write a prescription and have Auntie get some medicine for you to help you recover."

Upon hearing the last sentence, everyone present immediately understood.

Yan Cheng felt instantly clear-headed and comfortable!

However, when it was his turn, Song Dao hesitated for a moment before looking at Yan Lei and saying, "Auntie, just give two-thirds of the prescription for my eldest uncle to my youngest uncle."

Yan Cheng: "..."

It feels like the sky is falling.

In despair and despair, I felt that this kid in front of me was somewhat like the sun.

I couldn't help but ask, "Does it work?"

puff!
Yan Rui was the first to lose control.

I burst out laughing.

Everyone present burst into laughter.

……

Several days have passed since the Yan family's banquet that day.

Song Dao finally found the time to write songs for Chu Peining, Qin Lang, and Xia Hong, whom he had promised long ago.

Xia Hong organized this dinner party.

In her studio.

The most distinctive characteristic of musicians is that they can sing wherever they go.

Especially these kinds of private gatherings.

When Song Dao and Lin Fei arrived, Yin Hong was playing "For Whom" on a guitar.

Qin Lang and Chu Peining are singing.

Xia Hong sat in front of the drum set and played the drums in a very professional manner.

While Song Dao and Lin Fei's versions are also excellent, it must be said that this kind of song is best sung by Lao Qin and Sister Chu, who bring out the true essence of it.

However, due to preconceived notions and the atmosphere of the event, the "Song Lin" version is currently very popular.

When Song Dao and Lin Fei arrived, everyone stopped singing.

Xia Hong glanced behind the two of them and sighed, "Sigh, does this mean Yan Yan won't be able to come anymore?"

Now everyone knows that the former goddess in the red dress will likely never be seen on stage again.

Even Song Dao's fans were hesitant to continue teasing the "Song-Yan romance".

Linchuan Group has an extremely high profile!
After becoming the new leader, even if Yan Yu still wants to act as before, her identity will no longer allow it.

Song Dao smiled and said, "It's not that bad. I've just taken over, so I'll definitely be busy for a while. I'll come out when I have more time."

Xia Hong looked at Song Dao, hesitant to speak.

Lin Fei chuckled softly from the side and said, "It won't change."

Xia Hong: "..."

Qin Lang, Chu Peining, and Yin Hong didn't say anything either.

Because everyone is a little hesitant to believe it.

Lin Fei and Song didn't mention that they had just had a big drinking session with both families at Lao Zhou's house a few days ago.

Even Lin Fei was present.

The group's sadness didn't last long; they quickly became lively again.

During this time, I couldn't help but feel the impermanence of life, that even someone of Zhou Linchuan's status and position could suddenly fall ill.

Then, in the next moment, several older brothers and sisters began to impart their experience to Song Dao and Lin Fei, the two "youngsters".

"When you're young, you absolutely must take care of yourself and not take it lightly."

Through observation, Song found that they were all fine, and the minor issues were not serious.

I didn't say anything.

Instead, he sent Qin Lang a song that he had already written.

Qin Lang immediately looked delighted.

Ask the staff at Xia Hong's studio to print out a few copies.

Xia Hong held the sheet music in her hand, and as she looked at it, her eyes suddenly welled up with tears.

"These lyrics... are amazing!"

The song Song Dao gave to Qin Lang was "Mother," which Qin Lang handled with ease, given his abilities.

No wonder Xia Hong was moved after seeing it.

For their generation, the lyrics of this song perfectly capture their experiences from childhood to adulthood.

And a mother is the closest person in the world.

It's hard not to be moved after watching it.

Qin Lang was so excited that his hands were trembling.

Chu Pei-ning also exclaimed with emotion, "I want to sing a version of it sometime!"

Seeing Xia Hong crying her eyes out, Song Dao quickly sent her a song: "Sister Hong, take a look at this song, I guarantee it will straighten you up immediately!"

Xia Hong rolled her eyes at her younger brother, annoyed: "You did this on purpose, didn't you?"

He opened his phone, glanced at it, and exclaimed "Huh!"

"The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau? This song... this song, oh my god!"
