Qin Haodong nodded and said to Liao Shuyuan, “Auntie, I need to feel your pulse first.”

Seeing that both her husband and Su Hongbo adored this young man, Liao Shuyuan realized that he must be worthy of his name of Medical Sage. She stretched out her left hand and said, “Little Qin, please.”

Qin Haodong felt her pulse to make sure the location of the cervical stenosis and nerve knot. Then he took out the needle bag and began to perform acupuncture on her.

He first used a silver needle to seal several acupuncture points around the cervical vertebra, in case it would cause severe pain when he expanded the vertebra.

Then he stretched out the index finger of his right hand and pressed it on the Dazhui point, slowly injecting the Green Wood Genuine Qi into it.

According to the plan he had made before, he first expanded the narrow cervical vertebra slowly with the Genuine Qi and it turned normal as that of healthy people after about ten minutes.

Because of the nourishment of Green Wood Genuine Qi, there was no damage to the cervical vertebra after it was expanded.

Then he performed the Bodhisattva’s Hand again and turned his Genuine Qi into two agile little hands to slowly untie the knot of the nerves.

The whole process could even be regarded as a minor operation. Under the observation of the Spirit, he could see the nerve knots clearly. Then he untied it with his Bodhisattva’s hand as if he was unbuttoning his shirt.

After finishing it, he began to nourish the blocked meridians around the cervical vertebra with the Green Wood Genuine Qi. Half an hour later, the cervical spondylosis that had tormented Liao Shuyuan for many years was completely eliminated.

Qin Haodong took back the silver needle and said, “The treatment is over. Auntie, how do you feel?”

“Great! My headache disappears and my head is not spinning now.”

Liao Shuyuan felt an unprecedented sense of comfort in her head as if the whole world had become much clear for her. Even her mind was more active now.

She stood up, turned around a few times, and jumped. If she had done this before, she would have definitely fallen, but now nothing had happened. She was relaxed.

“Little Qin, your medical skills are amazing. Thank you! Thank you very much!”

Liao Shuyuan’s eyes were swimming with tears as she spoke. Although her cervical spondylosis would not kill her, it remained a serious danger to her health for the past years. She had been deprived of the quality of life and could not even work these days. It was miserable.

Shao Weimin also asked in disbelief, “Little Qin, is she fully recovered now? Do we need to do something else?”

Qin Haodong said, “There is nothing we need to do now. Auntie’s cervical vertebra is healthier than anyone else’s. She just needs to watch less TV and doesn’t play cell phone all the time.”

Su Hongbo praised, “Medical Sage really lives up to his name. I have no way to cure these complicated diseases, but you cure the illness in an instant. You’re indeed an amazing doctor and I’m no match for you!”

Yang Haizheng added, “I’ve been working in the Health Ministry for so many years and met countless famous doctors. But I’ve never seen such magical medical skills. I’ve learned a lot today.”

Shao Weimin took out a bank card from his pocket, “Little Qin, there’s 100,000 yuan here. It’s your medical fee. Please take it.”

Qin Haodong said, “Minister Shao, please don’t do this. I feel that I’m being treated as a stranger. She’s my auntie and how can I take the money?”

Qin Haodong admired Minister Shao and his wife who didn’t put on airs as other high officials. Besides, he would need Shao Weimin’s help in developing traditional Chinese medicine. So he wouldn’t charge for the treatment. Moreover, 100,000 yuan was nothing to him now.

Qin Haodong turned down the offer several times and Shao Weimin could only take back the bank card.

Liao Shuyuan said, “It’s already noon. Please don’t rush to leave. I’ll prepare a few dishes to thank Little Qin. Let’s have lunch together.”

She used to be good at cooking, but unfortunately, she had been troubled by cervical spondylosis recently and had not cooked for a long time. Since she was fully recovered today, Liao Shuyuan decided to show off her cooking skills.

Qin Haodong accepted the offer. Yang Haizheng naturally wouldn’t let go of the opportunity to get closer to Shao Weimin. So they all stayed.

They were chatting on the sofa. Qin Haodong said to Su Hongbo, “Elder Su, why are you here in the capital?”

Su Hongbo gave him a meaningful look, “I came here for you, don’t you know that?”

Qin Haodong asked in surprise, “Elder Su, what do you mean?”

Su Hongbo explained, “It’s your fault. After you dropped out of the Medical College, Su Hui also left the school. She’s running a clinic of traditional Chinese medicine in the capital.”

“I’m quite worried about her and that’s why I’m here.”

“Well…” Qin Haodong didn’t expect that Su Hui also came to the capital. Her purpose was obvious. She must come here to find him.

Yang Haizheng got some clues and said, “Elder Su, I’ve seen your granddaughter. She’s a great beauty. Doctor Qin and her will be a perfect match.”

Su Hongbo gave Qin Haodong a glare, “My granddaughter is quite picky. Countless boys fell in love with her since she was still a kid, but none of them caught her attention.”

“Now she has a crush on Little Qin, but this guy doesn’t appreciate it. He didn’t even say goodbye to her when he dropped out of school and came here.”

Seeing that he was about to be complained by the old man, Qin Haodong quickly changed the topic and said, “Elder Su, I remember that Su Hui didn’t graduate yet. Why is she running a clinic now?”

Su Hongbo explained, “Su Hui is interested in the traditional Chinese medicine since she was a child and she’s also talented. She has learned most of my skills over the years. Even if she stayed in school, she could learn nothing more. So I didn’t stop her when she decided to drop out of school.”

“Last year, she got the Certificate of Medical Practice under the joint recommendation of us. She also keeps you in her mind, so she came here to run a clinic.”

Qin Haodong didn’t know what to say now. In fact, he didn’t know how to deal with Su Hui, that was why he didn’t say goodbye to her when he left the college.

He remained silent, but Su Hongbo didn’t intend to let him go. “I met you here today. What a coincidence. I’ll go back to Shanghai now and you’ll take care of Su Hui from then. I’ll get even with you if she gets hurt.”

“What…”

Qin Haodong wanted to refuse, but he couldn’t find any reason.

Fortunately, Liao Shuyuan had prepared the dishes at this time. Delicious food was served and she invited everyone to go to the table.

Shao Weimin was very happy today. He took out a bottle of liquor which he had treasured for many years and poured a cup for everyone.

Then they enjoyed the food while talking with each other.

After having several drinks, Shao Weimin said, “Little Qin, now the traditional Chinese medicine has declined, but I didn’t expect to see such a great doctor like you. It’s really a blessing for us. Come on, a toast to you.”

“Yes, Little Qin is really a mainstay of traditional Chinese medicine. With him, I can see the hope of this industry.”

Su Hongbo also raised his glass and toasted it to Qin Haodong with Yang Haizheng.

They clinked their glasses and drank up the liquor in one gulp.

“Well down!” Su Hongbo put down his glass and said, “Chinese medicine is the treasure left by our ancestors. Now it’s getting weaker If it’s really finished, I don’t know how to face our ancestors when we’re dead.”

Shao Weimin said, “You’re right, Mr. Su. Traditional Chinese medicine can’t be finished. If there are more Chinese medicine practitioners like Little Qin in our country, it will definitely proper again.”

Su Hongbo looked at Qin Haodong and said, “You’re very special. I don’t think you should hide your skills. You must teach a few more students.”

Yang Haizheng added, “Doctor Qin, Mr. Su is right. You should go to a university to teach and make more contributions to the development of traditional Chinese medicine.”

Qin Haodong said with a wry smile, “Director Yang, you must be joking. I’m just a Chinese medicine practitioner who didn’t even graduate from college. Which university will hire me?”

Shao Weimin said, “Your academic background doesn’t mean anything. There are many highly-educated doctors in Huaxia, but none of them can match you.”

Yang Haizheng said, “That’s right. With your medical skills, you can even teach experts and the National Grand Masters, not to mention college students.”

Su Hongbo said, “Boy, just give me an answer. Do you want to teach at the university?”

Seeing that the old man was being serious, Qin Haodong replied, “To be honest, I have a lot of things to do. I can’t be a full-time teacher, but it’s okay to give a lesson from time to time.”

Su Hongbo said, “Well, Zhao Yonggang, the principal of the Imperial Medical College, is my student. I’ll call him and ask him to hire you as a guest professor.”

Qin Haodong thought for a moment. He had completely convinced the seven major families in the capital and there weren’t many things to deal with before the Alien Demons took action. So he nodded, “Well, I can give a few lessons if the university agrees.”

Seeing Qin Haodong agreed, Su Hongbo called Zhao Yonggang. A few minutes later, he hung up and said to Qin Haodong excitedly, “I have already told him and he agreed without any hesitation. You can go to him this afternoon.”

Qin Haodong was a little worried and said, “Elder Su, have you told him my situation clearly?”

“Yes. Although you don’t have a college degree and don’t graduate from college, your medical skills are convincing. Zhao Yonggang has also made a stand. What he values is abilities instead of academic background. He happens to need teachers, so just go to him.”

“Is it this afternoon?” Qin Haodong looked at the time. It was already one o’clock in the afternoon. He said, “Elder Su, is this too hasty?”

Su Hongbo said, “The sooner, the better. If you give one more lesson, you may be able to cultivate more excellent doctors of traditional Chinese medicine.”

Qin Haodong said with a wry smile, “Well then, I’ll be there in a minute.”

Since Qin Haodong had something to do in the afternoon, they didn’t drink much. They finished the meal after drinking up the bottle of Wuliangye liquor.

Su Hongbo wanted to go with him, but Qin Haodong rejected him. He wanted to get the job all by himself. If he went there with Su Hongbo, others might think that he made it with the help of Su Hongbo.

Qin Haodong sighed with emotion when he walked into the Imperial Medical College. He didn’t expect that he would come here after leaving the Jiangnan Medical College. But he was a teacher now instead of a common student.

As soon as he walked through the gate, his cell phone rang. Looking at the caller ID, he found that it was Alice, the president of the World Medical Association.

“President Alice, what can I do for you?”

On the other side, Alice said in a charming voice, “Dear Qin, why can you recognize my voice at once? Have you been thinking about me all the time?”

Qin Haodong didn’t know what to say. He thought to himself, “Is there no caller ID in M Country? Or does this beautiful woman want to get closer to me?”

He asked again, “President Alice, what can I do for you?”

Alice then came to the point, James just called me and said that you cured a patient who has been inflicted by pulmonary fibrosis with traditional Chinese medicine.”

Qin Haodong said, “Here’s the thing.”

But he was also very confused at the same time and wondered what the president of the World Medical Association wanted to do.

Alice said, “Well, Qin, I’ve seen the magic of traditional Chinese medicine, but there are many people in our organization who don’t believe in it. I want to form a mission to take them to Huaxia to see your skills. What do you think?”
