An hour passed, and finally it was twelve o'clock.
"Kid, time's up."
Zhou Ping'an chuckled coldly, "Don't chicken out at the last minute!"
"Don't worry about it."
Chen Xuan glanced at him and turned to Wang Daoquan, "Can I borrow your silver needles for a bit?"
"Divine Doctor Wang, give them to him!"
Zhou Ping'an sneered continuously, "I wonder what kind of trick you can pull off."
Chen Xuan took the silver needles from Wang Daoquan, "Thanks."
He gave Lin Wanxi a slight smile and turned towards the bedroom.
"I'll go take a look." Wang Daoquan followed him into the bedroom.
Zhou Ping'an sat there unmoved, not believing that Chen Xuan could cure Lin Zhiguo's illness.
Zhang Ru frowned, not trusting Chen Xuan, but there was no other choice now.
Lin Wanxi was anxious, secretly clenching her fists, her palms sweaty.
Inside the bedroom.
Cough, cough, cough...
Lin Zhiguo, wearing a mask, coughed violently, almost coughing out his lungs.
He was extremely uncomfortable.
"Uncle Lin, my name is Chen Xuan."
"Relax, just a few acupuncture points and you'll be fine."
Chen Xuan greeted with a smile.
"Okay, cough, cough, cough..." Lin Zhiguo could barely speak due to coughing.
Following behind, Wang Daoquan had a mocking look on his face.
Just a few needles and he'll be fine?
What a boast!
At this moment, Chen Xuan had already made his move. A few silver needles flew out of his hand, landing precisely on the acupuncture points.
The technique was so fast it was dazzling.
Wang Daoquan couldn't help but widen his eyes, the mockery gone from his face.
He was left with nothing but shock.
"Holy Yang Profound Needle?"
Wang Daoquan was greatly astonished, could it be that Chen Xuan is from... the Divine Doctor Hall of the Holy Temple?
A few minutes later, Chen Xuan withdrew all the silver needles.
Lin Zhiguo's coughing gradually subsided, and his face regained its color.
His breathing became smooth, and he felt indescribably comfortable all over.
It was obvious to anyone with eyes that his illness was cured.
Wang Daoquan secretly marveled, this is a real divine doctor!
Compared to Chen Xuan, his own medical skills were far inferior!
Chen Xuan looked at Lin Zhiguo, "Uncle Lin, rest for a while, then get up and move around."
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Chen." Lin Zhiguo nodded in gratitude.
Wang Daoquan hastily clasped his hands in respect, "Mr. Chen, my old eyes were blind earlier, please forgive me."
"I wonder if Mr. Chen would accept me as a disciple, I would be most grateful."
Chen Xuan sneered, "Not everyone is qualified to be my disciple, you don't meet the criteria!"
With that, he walked out of the room.
Wang Daoquan wore a bitter smile, shook his head in resignation, and followed him out of the bedroom.
Lin Zhiguo realized that Chen Xuan was extraordinary and thought he must cultivate this relationship.
He immediately got up out of bed, not daring to slight Chen Xuan.
In the living room.
Wang Daoquan followed Chen Xuan, both emerging.
"How did it go?"
Lin Wanxi rushed over anxiously.
Zhang Ru also looked nervous, waiting for Chen Xuan's answer.
"Uncle Lin's illness is cured, he will come out soon," Chen Xuan said with a smile.
Really?
Lin Wanxi and Zhang Ru were half-believing, half-doubting, looking to Wang Daoquan for confirmation.
Even Zhou Ping'an stood up, frowning.
Wang Daoquan gave a bitter smile, "No need to look at me, Mr. Chen's medical skills are extremely high, Lin Zhiguo's illness is completely cured."
With that, he slipped away, unable to stay any longer out of embarrassment.
Zhou Ping'an's expression kept changing, and he snorted coldly, "Consider yourselves lucky this time, we'll see next time!"
Leaving a harsh statement, he stormed out angrily.
Zhang Ru had not fully processed it, staring at Chen Xuan with amazement.
"Chen Xuan, I didn't expect you to know medicine! Thankfully, you saved our whole family." The excitement was evident in Lin Wanxi's expression.
Chen Xuan smiled slightly, "No need for thanks."
"As we agreed, give me the Jade Pendant."
At this moment, Lin Zhiguo walked out of the room, smiling, "Glad you haven't left, Mr. Chen, you must stay for lunch."
"No need, Uncle Lin," Chen Xuan replied with a smile, "I have other things to do, I'll leave soon."
"No rush to leave, you're with Wanxi anyway, don't be a stranger."
Zhang Ru's demeanor changed, smiling warmly.
"Old Lin, you don't know yet. Last night Wanxi was with Chen Xuan... Ah, I'm too embarrassed to say! Anyway, it happened."
Lin Wanxi was immediately flustered, that was just a ruse to trick Zhou Ping'an. It can't be real.
Her father valued family reputation most, he would be furious.
"Dad, let me explain, that's not how it is..." Lin Wanxi hurried to explain.
Surprisingly, Lin Zhiguo wasn't angry, his eyes were gleaming.
He was just looking for an opportunity to connect with Chen Xuan, and this was it.
Becoming his son-in-law would be a great fortune!
Lin Zhiguo said cheerfully, "Wanxi, no need to hide it. I'm not so old-fashioned!"
"Since you're already in a substantial relationship, don't drag it out. Get married in the afternoon! Don't wait until the belly is big to get a certificate, it would be humiliating."
What?
Lin Wanxi's eyes widened, was this the father she knew?
Not only wasn't he angry, he strongly supported them getting a certificate.
After a serious illness, her father... did he lose his mind?
It was too unbelievable!
Chen Xuan was equally astonished, what was this?
He was just pretending to be the boyfriend for the beautiful CEO, and now he was expected to fake it for real and become her husband?
The agreement never mentioned this!
"Lin Wanxi, are you trying to trap me?" Chen Xuan asked her.
Lin Wanxi got angry, "Drop dead! Take advantage and still complain!"
"If you dare to go get a certificate with me, I'll make your life a living hell every day!"
