I bought a secret manual of the Hehuan Sect for ten yuan.

"Let's go, I've already asked someone to reserve a private room for us. Let's eat and chat."

Xia Yanxi gestured for him to enter, her demeanor graceful and poised.

Qin Ge quickly glanced towards the front desk. "Miss Xia, did you reserve the top-tier private room at Zuixianlou?"

He remembered that the woman at the front desk had just said that the top-tier private room was not open to the public today. "I'm fine with anyone inviting me to dinner; I don't care about formalities."

"Any private room is fine, dining in the lobby is also okay."

Xia Yanxi was taken aback for a moment, but quickly understood what was going on. She immediately apologized, "I'm sorry, I thought I would arrive before you, so I didn't explain clearly."

With that, she walked towards the front desk, saying, "Everyone, stop what you're doing!"

"This is Mr. Qin Ge, a distinguished guest of the Xia family!"

"From now on, when he dine at Zuixianlou, you must treat him well. Anyone who dares to neglect him will face my wrath!"

The front desk staff responded in unison, their eyes all fixed on Qin Ge, imprinting her appearance into their minds.

The woman who had just been gossiping about Qin Ge with her colleagues was now clenching her fists tightly, so nervous that she almost forgot to breathe.

She wasn't sure if anyone else had heard what she had just said, or even if her colleague would betray her and tell Xia Yanxi everything directly.

The working conditions at Zuixianlou are excellent, and nobody wants to be fired.

Moreover, it's no longer a question of whether she can keep her job. If she angers Xia Yanxi and Xia Yanxi intends to use her to set rules, she'll be in serious trouble, if not dead.

But how could she have imagined that Qin Ge, dressed so plainly, would be a friend of the Xia family's daughter!

She only breathed a long sigh of relief after seeing Xia Yanxi and Qin Ge leave, her back already soaked with cold sweat.

"Get to work and stop talking nonsense during work hours."

"Thank you so much. I won't do it again."

Led by Xu Yongxiang, the manager of Zuixianlou, Qin Ge and Xia Yanxi arrived at the Tianzi private room on the third floor.

After taking their seats, Xia Yanxi smiled at Qin Ge and said, "I think you've probably guessed it by now. Zuixianlou is indeed a property of the Xia family."

She took a pre-prepared bank card from her bag and pushed it in front of Qin Ge. "You saved my grandfather. As per the promise I made to you when I was at Qingfeng Hall, this is your reward."

"There's five million in the card. Also, from now on, whenever you dine at Zuixianlou, just show this card and you can get a free meal."

"Zui Xian Lou has three floors. The first floor is the lobby and a few private rooms. The second floor is divided into several areas, which also have private rooms, but they are mainly for small banquets and parties."

"The third floor is all private rooms, and there is also a fourth floor where you can eat, stay, and have entertainment, but it is only open to special members."

"With this card, you can dine and stay at any floor of Zuixianlou."

"Thank you." Qin Ge put the card away and joked, "Miss Xia, are you going to cover all my food and lodging for the rest of my life?"

He was amazed by Xia Yanxi's generosity. Given her status as the daughter of the Xia family, such a promise must not be just empty words.

Qin Ge couldn't possibly use this card to eat and drink for free at Zuixianlou every day, but he could use it occasionally.

Xia Yanxi was slightly surprised, then smiled and said, "You're quite an interesting person. If it were someone else, they would politely decline, whether it was genuine or not."

"I like that she's not pretentious!"

Qin Ge said frankly, "Because I really want this card."

"I see that Miss Xia is sincere in giving it to me, and I also sincerely want it, so I won't stand on ceremony."

Are you kidding me? It's five million! If you pretend to be polite and decline, what if they actually take it back? Who can you complain to then?

Xia Yanxi smiled faintly and changed the subject, "I have a question, may I ask it?"

"You said you're not a doctor, right? Then where did you get all these medical skills?"

"Even the renowned traditional Chinese medicine doctor Sun Shizheng was helpless in my grandfather's condition. Are you sure your medical skills are better than his?"

"I'm a freshman in the medical department of Dongda University. Before I went to university, I studied with an old Chinese medicine doctor." Qin Ge answered without hesitation.

Regardless of Xia Yanxi's intentions, he could not tell the truth: "I have seen a similar case to Mr. Xia before, and I witnessed the process of the old Chinese medicine doctor treating him."

"Given that Professor Sun's diagnosis of your grandfather was consistent with that of the patient I had seen before, saving lives was the priority, so I decided to take the risk and give it a try."

"Fortunately, Mr. Xia was blessed with good fortune and divine protection, which allowed me to succeed by sheer luck."

"Professor Sun is a master of traditional Chinese medicine. How could I, a mere junior, dare to compare myself to him!"

"What do you mean by divine intervention? You saved him, so you saved him!" Xia Yanxi didn't suspect anything and just thought Qin Ge was being modest.

"If we attribute all of a person's efforts to fate, then hard work and dedication become too cheap, and that's very unfair!"

"Since you dared to step in and save people, I believe it wasn't just out of kindness; you must have had some confidence in the situation!"

Seeing Qin Ge's surprised expression, she realized she had gotten too excited. "I was just chatting casually. You don't need to think too much about it, and you don't need to be so modest."

She blinked her beautiful eyes, then suddenly changed the subject, "I often feel unwell and have seen many doctors for treatment, but the results have been minimal."

"Can you take a look at it?"

As she spoke, she stretched out her slender, fair wrist in front of Qin Ge, giving him no chance to refuse.

Qin Ge smiled slightly, "Miss Xia, are you trying to test my medical skills?"

He could roughly guess Xia Yanxi's intentions. It was unlikely that a young lady from the prestigious Xia family would spend time making friends with someone of little value.

Xia Yanxi asked him to meet today, which definitely means she wants to befriend him, but the prerequisite is that he must have some value.

For a wealthy family like the Xia family, nothing is more important than health, and Qin Ge's medical skills are his greatest asset.

The fact that Qin Ge solved a problem that even the renowned traditional Chinese medicine master Sun Shizheng couldn't handle demonstrates that Qin Ge possesses skills far superior to Sun Shizheng's in the field of medicine.

Even if it's just a small aspect, that's enough; it can be life-saving in critical moments.

Just like the situation Xia Siyuan is facing today, even though Qin Ge only knows that one move, he did save Xia Siyuan's life.

Xia Yanxi wanted to test Qin Ge's medical skills to see if he was truly capable or if it was just pure luck.

This is Xia Siyuan's intention; Qin Ge's abilities will directly determine the Xia family's future attitude towards Qin Ge.

As for the life-saving grace, the debt was already settled when Qin Ge handed over that card.

Qin Ge extended his finger and gently placed it on Xia Yanxi's wrist at the cunkou pulse point.

After a moment, he released his grip. "Did the doctor who treated you say that your spleen and kidneys are too weak, causing you to be cold-blooded and often have cold limbs?"

"Do you experience excruciating pain during your period each month?"
