Dumpling has to go to work now, so there will be two updates today. Thank you all for your patronage, recommendations, collections, and clicks. I appreciate it very much, three kisses.

But just now, the old lady was coughing so hard she couldn't breathe or speak, but her entire body felt comfortable because she could sense that what was in her lungs was gradually being expelled with each cough. With every bit of it leaving, the old lady felt a weight lifted off her heart—she hadn’t felt this light-hearted in decades.

After the waiting room no longer smelled bad and everyone sat down again, Li Chuan asked anxiously, "Young Brother Xiao, what exactly happened here"

"Ahem, Mother, after being injured along the lung meridian, blood stasis accumulates. Combined with smoke toxins trapped in the damaged area that cannot be expelled, it forms 'black-hearted phlegm,' also known as solidified phlegm."

After saying this, Xiao Yu took out his stationery from his bag and wrote a prescription which he handed to Li Chuan: "Follow the recipe to get the medicine and boil it!"

Yun Xi didn't expect that even when writing prescriptions, Xiao Yu would use a brush pen. She was quite astonished.

"Mr. Xiao is indeed a godly doctor!" Wang Mei, who had witnessed the entire process of Xiao Yu treating the patient, said admiringly.

Ruo Bingyang nodded along, but then he suddenly noticed that Wang Mei actually knew Xiao Yu and felt strange about it. Moreover, she was very respectful in her speech. Ruo Bingyang knew that even though Wang Mei was just a deputy section chief, relying on the backing behind her, she usually didn’t pay much attention to ordinary municipal bureau heads, so why did she treat this young man with such respect Could there be something else about him

“Traditional Chinese Medicine is vast and profound; I’ve only learned a little bit, how can I deserve the title of godly doctor….” Hearing Wang Mei’s words, Xiao Yu smiled faintly and modestly replied.

"Alright, Brother Li, we're leaving now; we were just having a meal!" Xiao Yu said to Li Chuan, then turned to instruct Li Chuan's mother: "Auntie, don't do strenuous activities these few days. Get more rest and stop smoking!"

“Sure, sure! Little Xiao, come over some day and I’ll treat you to a good drink!” Seeing his mother recover from her illness, Li Chuan was very happy. That nagging cough had plagued his mother for decades. When Li Chuan was young and there was no electricity, his mother would light an oil lamp to make clothes for him and mend shoes. The smoke from the oil lamp would irritate his mother’s throat and make her cry with coughing. Then he made a silent vow in his heart that if he could, he would cure his mother’s cough someday. He never expected that after working and earning money, taking his mother to many hospitals hadn’t improved her condition; on the contrary, she had been coughing worse over these years.

He didn't expect that when there was no hope left for curing his mother's illness, she would be cured by a chance remark of Xiao Yu’s. The huge difference in this situation made it hard for Li Chuan to express how he felt.

Xiao Yu and Yun Xi got up to head towards the banquet hall. They hadn't had much food just now and were very hungry, so they could eat as much as possible since Yun Xi already paid 500 RMB in gifts! (Sweat……)

When Luo Bingyang saw Xiao Yu heading into the main hall, he suddenly froze for a moment. He realized that Xiao Yu was headed towards the same hall where his daughter’s wedding reception was being held. Wang Mei also stiffened and looked at Luo Bingyang.

Seeing Wang Mei look at him, Luo Bingyang shrugged with both hands to indicate that he didn’t understand either. Turning to Li Chuan, he asked: “Director Li, what is this Doctor Xiao all about”

"I don't know either, but Secretary Wan respects him very much!" Li Chuan naturally wouldn’t say that Xiao Yu was treating his daughter’s illness for Secretary Wan; however, it would be hard to keep Xiao Yu living in the secretary’s apartment a secret from Luo Bingyang. Therefore, he only said that Secretary Wan respected Xiao Yu, trying to elevate Xiao Yu's status. This could also be seen as Li Chuan repaying Xiao Yu for curing his mother. Besides, what Li Chuan said was true; Secretary Wan did indeed respect Xiao Yu.

“This Doctor Xiao is staying in Secretary Wan’s special apartment,” Wang Mei softly told Luo Bingyang when she saw Li Chuan help his mother leave.

Hearing this, Luo Bingyang paused and then showed an expression of gratitude: “Thank you!”

It turned out that the current secretary was about to retire. Although Luo Bingyang was the top deputy secretary-general, he had been promoted by the former party secretary, while the position of secretary-general belonged to someone close to the city’s party secretary. As a person from the previous administration, Luo Bingyang actually stood at a disadvantage in this round of competition. Even though he could try to get closer to the current party secretary, there was still no good chance for him yet. However, Doctor Xiao living in the special apartment of the city party secretary suggested that their relationship wasn't ordinary. Furthermore, coming to his daughter's wedding indicated that he had a connection with Luo Bingyang’s family. This made Luo Bingyang see an opportunity, which is why he was very grateful towards Wang Mei for her hint. Li Chuan’s last words might have also been meant as guidance; after all, when Li Chuan was feeling down and out in the past, not only did Luo Bingyang never look down on him, but also occasionally gave him some tips.

Thinking of this, Luo Bingyang quickly walked towards the hall. When he entered, he saw Xiao Yu and others enter the Brocade Hall. Luo Bingyang knew that his daughter's classmates were seated in there, but when did his daughter have such classmates It seems like he'll need to properly inquire about his daughter later!

Xiao Yu and Yun Xi entered the Brocade Hall. Upon seeing them, Wu Liya said with a face full of resentment and disdain: "Yun Xi, you're truly something! Just now when Luo Jiao's couple came to toast, you weren't here. They even specifically asked about you!"

"Sorry about that! I was held up by something just now!" As old classmates, Yun Xi didn't want things to get too tense, so she explained.

Yun Xi and Xiao Yu sat down at their seats when the girl called Xiaoxiao approached them. In a low voice, she said: "Yun Xi, don't pay attention to her. After marrying an old man, there's no place for her anymore!"

"It doesn't matter. I won't take it to heart with her!" Yun Xi smiled faintly and replied.

“Ah, that’s good. After all, we are classmates after all! But these class reunions are becoming less and less interesting!” Xiaoxiao sighed as she said this.

Xiao Yu didn't care about any of this; he had felt extremely hungry since morning when he was performing acupuncture at the hospital, so he hadn't eaten much earlier. Now, he was completely famished. Xiao Yu sat down and ate voraciously without saying anything. Yun Xi smiled softly when she saw Xiao Yu's eating manner.

The classmates seated in the room looked upon Xiao Yu's voracious eating with disdain.

Wu Liya saw this and pursed her lips, looking at him with disdain as she said: "Doctor Xiao, please eat slowly. No one is going to snatch your food. I now doubt if Deep Sea is mistreating the people of our Yansheng province!"

"What’s wrong with Wu Liya speaking less" Although Yun Xi was also displeased and hadn’t spoken yet, Xiaoxiao beside her looked at Wu Liya angrily.

"What's wrong with me I said………."

"Classmates, the groom and bride as well as the bride's father, Secretary General Luo, are here to serve wine!" Wu Yali was about to speak when someone pushed open the door. The best man excitedly announced.

"What Secretary General Luo is coming to serve wine Did I hear that right"

"Wow, who would have thought that Secretary General Luo would be here!"

Upon hearing what the best man said, everyone in the private room immediately started talking animatedly.

The truth was, even the best man was puzzled. The original plan did not include this step, but after Secretary General returned from outside and suddenly wanted to serve wine at his daughter’s classmate's place, it left them all equally confused.

At that moment, Luo Bingyang walked in with a glass of wine along with the bride, Luo Jiao, and groom, Wu Qingzhi.

Yunxi saw that the bride's father was the middle-aged man who had been watching Xiao Yu being treated in the lounge earlier. She heard others calling him Secretary General Luo but hadn't realized he was Luo Jiao’s father at the time. Thinking back on it, she wondered how could a father possibly have time to watch others getting treated when his daughter is having her wedding

At this point, Luo Jiao's face no longer held its earlier haughty expression and her gaze towards Yunxi was somewhat evasive. In reality, Luo Jiao wasn't feeling great either. When her father returned from a brief walk outside just now, he asked if she had any classmates with the surname Xiao who were doctors. She thought for a moment and said no.

"I clearly saw them enter the Brocade Hall!" whispered Luo Bingyang, but his daughter still heard him.at will happen if she hasn’t died" Xiao Yu thought for a moment and continued. He knew that the spirit medium inside was still alive because only one or two ghosts were drawing on her yang qi.Hearing...
