Inside the emergency room, the air seemed to freeze.

Li Changqing, a renowned master of traditional Chinese medicine in Jiangzhou, who would normally be greeted with great respect even by the city's capital, was now bowing deeply at a ninety-degree angle, holding a business card in both hands, and bowing deeply to Lin Yu, who was covered in mud.

Wang Jianguo, who was sitting on the trash can next to him, almost popped his eyes out.

Although he was a Western-trained doctor, he knew Li Changqing's stature. In the Jiangzhou medical community, Li Changqing was a living icon.

If Li Changqing accepts Lin Yu, wouldn't Wang Jianguo be nailed to the pillar of shame for his misdiagnosis and shirking of responsibility?

Thinking this, Wang Jianguo jumped up suddenly, screaming without regard for his image, "Old Li! Don't be fooled by this kid! This isn't some kind of magic needle! It's clearly the imported, high-potency adrenaline I gave the patient that's working! He's just taking advantage of the drug's effect to randomly prick around; he's just playing tricks!"

"Shut up!"

Li Changqing suddenly straightened up and slapped Wang Jianguo hard across the face.

Snapped!

The sound was crisp and loud. Wang Jianguo's gold-rimmed glasses were knocked off, and five bright red finger marks instantly appeared on his face.

"I've practiced medicine for fifty years. Can't you tell if I'm faking it or not?!"

Li Changqing's eyes widened in anger. "That 'Burning Mountain Fire' technique you just used, the resulting resonance of qi—could your adrenaline really do that? Ignorant! Stupid! Get out of here, don't embarrass the doctors of Jiangzhou!"

Wang Jianguo was stunned by the beating. He covered his face and took several steps back, staring at Lin Yu with resentment in his eyes. However, intimidated by Li Changqing's power, he dared not utter another word and could only slink out of the emergency room.

After shooing away the flies, Li Changqing turned to face Lin Yu and instantly put on an even more humble smile than before.

Because the skill that Lin Yu just displayed was a level that Lin Yu had been studying his whole life but had never been able to reach!

"Young miracle doctor, I was very rude earlier. May I ask who your teacher is? If it's convenient..."

Lin Yu interrupted him, his tone calm and indifferent: "I belong to no sect or school. As for becoming a disciple, forget it. You couldn't learn what I've learned anyway."

mad!

Those around gasped. Not only did they refuse, but they also bluntly stated that the master "couldn't learn it"?

Li Changqing, however, was not annoyed at all. On the contrary, he became even more convinced that Lin Yu was a true reclusive master. His eyes darted around, and he immediately beckoned to his assistant behind him: "Quick! Go and process the transfer for the old lady! Upgrade her directly to the top-floor VIP ward! Put all the expenses on my tab!"

After saying that, he took out a card from his pocket, which was entirely black and gold with gold trim, and handed it to Lin Yu with both hands:

"Young miracle doctor, there are ten million in this card, and the password is six eights. This is both for the old lady's nutritional expenses and a small gift from this old man. Consider it a gesture of friendship. Please also accept this 'Supreme Black Card' from Huichuntang. In the future, if anyone dares to charge you for medicine or medical treatment in Jiangzhou, they'll be slapping me, Li Changqing, in the face!"

Ten million!

boom!

The ward erupted in uproar once again.

Just minutes before, this young man was kneeling before his mother-in-law for 100,000 yuan.

A few minutes later, the Jiangzhou tycoon knelt down and presented ten million!

Lin Yu looked at the card but did not refuse it out of a haughty manner.

My mother's subsequent treatment will require a large amount of rare medicinal herbs (aged ginseng and lingzhi), which are bottomless pits of money. This ten million is a timely help.

"I'll take the money, consider it a loan. I'll repay you handsomely in the future." Lin Yu casually took the money and put it into the wet pocket.

Li Changqing grinned so hard his face crinkled into crescents: "Oh, what's with all this talk of borrowing? You're being too polite! Xiao Zhang, quickly escort the old lady upstairs!"

……

Meanwhile, in a corner of the corridor outside the emergency room.

Wang Jianguo, his face swollen, hid in the emergency exit, peering through the crack in the door at Li Changqing bowing and scraping to Lin Yu. The fire of jealousy in his eyes almost consumed him.

"Why...why does this kid get ten million for just a few acupuncture needles? That's clearly my doing!"

Wang Jianguo gritted his teeth, took out his phone, and dialed a number with trembling fingers.

The owner of that number was none other than Zhang Hao, the rich second-generation who had just humiliated Lin Yu at the door.

The call connected, and Zhang Hao's lazy voice came from the other end: "Hey? Director Wang? Has that good-for-nothing Lin Yu gotten away? Has the body been disposed of?"

"Young Master Zhang! Something terrible has happened!" Wang Jianguo lowered his voice, his tone urgent. "That Lin Yu didn't leave, and he even fooled Old Master Li Changqing!"

"What?" Zhang Hao was taken aback.

Wang Jianguo immediately embellished the story, recounting what had just happened:

"I gave the patient a special medicine and just brought him back to life when that brat Lin Yu rushed in and started randomly sticking needles in! Luckily, it was a fluke, and the patient woke up! Old Li didn't see me administer the medicine; he was immediately fooled by that kid's quack tricks and insisted he was some kind of miracle doctor, even offering him ten million!"

"Young Master Zhang, you'd better be careful. This kid has gained Old Master Li's trust. What if he uses that ten million to harass Miss Su tomorrow, or gets Old Master Li to put pressure on the Su family..."

On the other end of the phone, Zhang Hao was first startled after hearing this, then let out a cold laugh:

"Ha, I knew it. How could a good-for-nothing who's been living off a woman for three years suddenly have medical skills? Turns out he stole your credit and fooled that senile old man, Li Changqing."

"Okay, I understand. Director Wang, you did a good job. At the Su family's annual meeting tomorrow, if this kid dares to act tough with the money he swindled, I'll expose his true colors in public and make him spit out everything he's taken! Maybe... I'll even send him to jail!"

After hanging up the phone, Wang Jianguo looked at Lin Yu at the end of the corridor, a sinister smile curling at the corner of his mouth.

"Lin Yu, you dare slap me in the face? Tomorrow I'll ruin your reputation!"

……

Top-floor VVIP ward.

This place doesn't look like a hospital; it's more like a suite in a five-star hotel. Huge floor-to-ceiling windows offer a panoramic view of Jiangzhou.

The mother has been settled in and is fast asleep; her vital signs are stable.

Lin Yu stood by the window, looking at the bustling night view outside, stroking the black gold card in his hand.

Suddenly, the phone with the cracked screen in my pocket vibrated.

Lin Yu took it out and saw two words flashing on the screen: "Wife".

This is probably the last time I'll see this note.

Lin Yu took a deep breath and pressed the answer button.

The phone call came through Su Qianxue's signature cold voice, devoid of any concern, only questioning:

"Lin Yu, where are you? I heard you're borrowing money everywhere in the hospital? I'm warning you, now that you've signed the divorce agreement, stop using the Su family's name to swindle people! The Su family can't afford to lose face like that!"

Lin Yu tightened his grip on his phone slightly, but his eyes gradually cooled: "Don't worry, I didn't use a single penny from the Su family."

"Useless? Then where did your mother's surgery fees come from?" Su Qianxue clearly didn't believe it, her tone tinged with impatience. "Forget it, I can't be bothered with your nonsense. Aunt Zhao has already packed up all your things at home. Those tattered clothes and cheap goods have already been thrown into the trash can outside by the housekeeper. If you still want them, come and pick them up yourself. Don't make a mess of the Su family's land."

Picking up trash.

This is how he is in her heart after three years of marriage.

Looking at the black gold card with ten million in his hand, Lin Yu thought of Su Qianxue's arrogant face and a self-deprecating sneer curled up at the corner of his mouth.

"Throw it away. I find anything that smells like your Su family dirty."

The person on the other end of the phone visibly paused in breathing.

Su Qianxue seemed surprised that the usually timid Lin Yu dared to speak to her like that, and her tone instantly turned angry: "Lin Yu! What kind of attitude is this? You're just throwing caution to the wind after the divorce, aren't you? Fine! You asked for this! Come to the company annual meeting tomorrow to pick up your marriage certificate, don't be late!"

"Beep beep beep..."

The phone hangs up.

Lin Yu put down his phone, completely severing the last trace of lingering attachment to the past.

From now on, Lin Yu is Lin Yu, and the Su family is the Su family.

If we meet again, we will be strangers. If we become enemies, we will be adversaries.

Just then, there was a gentle knock on the ward door.

Just moments ago, Li Changqing was all high and mighty, but now he rushed in looking anxious, his forehead covered in sweat, and he didn't even bother to knock.

"Little miracle doctor! Help! Please, one more time!"

Li Changqing practically lunged at Lin Yu, his voice trembling: "Upstairs... in the presidential suite on the top floor, there's a very important person who's dying! I and several specialists have consulted for ages, but we're completely helpless. That's... a VIP from Zhongjing. If he dies in my hospital, the entire medical community of Jiangzhou will be doomed!"

Lin Yu frowned slightly: "I just saved my mother and I'm exhausted. I don't want to move."

"Little miracle doctor!" Li Changqing was almost crying with anxiety. He lowered his voice and said, "That person has an extremely high status! He's a retired senior officer from the 'Dragon Kingdom War Department'! If you can save him, not only in Jiangzhou, but throughout the entire Jiangnan Province, you'll be able to walk with impunity! This will be an absolute boon for you in the future... when dealing with those who look down on you!"

Upon hearing the words "War Department," Lin Yu's eyes flickered slightly.

The legacy of the ancient medical immortals is not limited to medical skills; cultivating the Dao also requires vast resources (natural treasures, rare jade and stones). And these resources are often in the hands of the most powerful people.

This is indeed a pedal.

"lead the way."

Lin Yu put his phone back in his pocket. His cheap windbreaker still looked shabby, but his overall demeanor was like a sharp sword about to be drawn.

Li Changqing was overjoyed: "This way, please! It's on the top floor!"
