122: Seize the opportunity

"What, it's Chu Xiaoxiao from the Ancient Medical Family?"

"I heard she's the most skilled young talent in the Chu family's medical arts this generation. They say at such a young age, she's already received the true teachings of the Chu family's elder, possessing eighty percent of his skill."

As soon as Chu Xiaoxiao appeared, someone in the crowd immediately exclaimed, recognizing her identity.

As a leader among the younger generation in the medical field, Chu Xiaoxiao was quite famous in high society.

After all, for these top magnates, once they have money and power, their only life goal is to live long enough, so each of them maintains good relationships with those medical families.

Medical families are a very special existence in high society. Perhaps no one in the family enters politics or business, but they often have extremely deep wealth accumulation. Moreover, the heads of these medical families often speak with absolute authority, and no prominent family dares to disrespect them.

The reason is simple: no matter how wealthy a person is, once they fall ill, they still have to beg for help. Sometimes, whether they can live a few more years might depend on a single thought from these doctors. Therefore, Ancient Medical Families are often entities that these prominent families need to befriend.

"Miss Xiaoxiao, I didn't expect to see you here." Qin Shou greeted Chu Xiaoxiao with a smile.

"I also didn't expect to meet Big Brother Qin here. I happen to have some medical questions that I'd like to ask Big Brother Qin about."

Chu Xiaoxiao smiled radiantly. She had already heard Ye Wuhuan and others' intentional taunts towards Qin Shou, so when she spoke these words, she deliberately raised her voice, afraid that those present wouldn't hear.

Sure enough, as soon as Chu Xiaoxiao spoke, the crowd immediately erupted into a commotion, and even Ren Jing and Yan Yourong were filled with surprise and uncertainty.

Especially Yan Yourong, who thought, "How much does he really know? Don't we already know? If this guy were really a famous doctor, why would he be so poor that he has to ask me for money just to shoot a short drama!"

"What, could this Qin Shou really be from an Ancient Medical Family?"

"Didn't you hear? Miss Chu just said that even she has medical questions that she needs to consult this person about. It seems this person's medical attainments must be even above Chu Xiaoxiao's!"

"But I've never heard of an Ancient Medical Family surnamed Qin! Could it be a hidden family?"

For a moment, Qin Shou's identity became increasingly mysterious to everyone present.

"Hahaha, Brother Qin, you're really not being fair! I didn't expect you to be from a hidden family, no wonder your family has such a treasure."

Ren Tianxing no longer had any doubts at this moment. He laughed heartily and patted Qin Shou's shoulder. If Qin Shou was truly from an Ancient Medical Family, then it was perfectly normal for him to possess such a treasure. After all, no matter how powerful a treasure, it couldn't be more important than life itself. It was also perfectly normal for high-ranking officials and nobles to give away such treasures to save their lives.

"Big Brother Ren, I'm truly sorry. My family had an ancestral motto that instructed my Qin family members to always be low-key when acting outside."

Qin Shou activated Genius Actor, his face full of apology, as if he genuinely had to be so low-key because of his family's ancestral motto.

However, in Qin Shou's heart, it was already a different scene, and he was secretly reveling: "What the hell am I being low-key about! For the past ten-plus years, I couldn't be high-profile even if I wanted to! Now I finally have a chance to show off! Is this what it feels like to successfully show off? It feels great! I finally understand why Zhang Wei likes to show off so much! I'm even getting addicted!"

"Hahaha, I understand, I understand!"

Ren Tianxing laughed heartily. As a disciple of Dragon Tiger Mountain, he had naturally encountered many powerful but unassuming hidden families and knew that there were indeed many hidden families who did not wish to leave their names in the world and acted extremely low-key.

"Little sister, keep this safe, don't lose it."

Saying this, Ren Tianxing took off the copper plate from his body and solemnly handed it to Ren Jing.

Ren Jing immediately took the copper plate and carefully wore it around her neck, afraid of damaging this protective copper talisman.

Now that Ren Jing knew how rare this copper plate was, she no longer found it ugly; the more she looked at it, the more pleasing it became, and she even felt that the copper plate had a kind of ancient beauty.

Especially when she thought that Qin Shou had even given away his family's ancestral treasure for her sake, her heart couldn't help but feel a surge of sweetness, and the way she secretly looked at Qin Shou was almost overflowing with affection.

Ren Tianxing saw all of this but said nothing more. In fact, he felt a bit of joy in his heart.

His younger sister was arrogant and proud, a favored daughter of heaven since childhood. Ordinary young talents simply couldn't catch her eye, and the family had arranged marriages for her multiple times, all of which she had rejected with a strong attitude.

Therefore, Ren Jing's marriage was a cause of great worry for the elders in the family, and Ren Tianxing, as Ren Jing's Big Brother, naturally saw it and was anxious about it.

Now that there was a young talent like Qin Shou who could capture his sister's heart, Ren Tianxing thought it couldn't be better.

Ren Tianxing now firmly believed that Qin Shou must be a direct descendant of a hidden family. The more he looked, the more he felt that Qin Shou was a perfect match for his sister, believing that Qin Shou was not only powerful but also humble and low-key, a good man worth entrusting her life to.

But Chu Xiaoxiao, seeing all of this, couldn't help but show a hint of sadness. Being meticulous, she naturally saw the affectionate, tender gaze in Ren Jing's eyes when she looked at Qin Shou, which was definitely not an ordinary relationship.

Chu Xiaoxiao also saw that Qin Shou's feelings for Ren Jing were certainly not ordinary. Otherwise, Qin Shou would never have given away such an important treasure. She knew the value of this copper plate; it was beyond monetary measure.

As a medical genius, Chu Xiaoxiao had dedicated herself to studying medicine since childhood, so her requirement for a future husband was that his medical attainments should at least not be inferior to hers. She hoped that her future partner could discuss medical arts with her and progress together.

It was hard to finally meet a handsome young talent like Qin Shou, whose medical attainments were even more unfathomable, making her so satisfied, only to find that there seemed to be many strong rivals. She couldn't help but feel a bit melancholic.

"Big Brother Qin, I still have some matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave for today. When we have time another day, I must have a good discussion about medical matters with Big Brother Chu."

Thinking of this, Chu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but feel a bit awkward staying there at the moment and immediately wanted to leave. Although she genuinely hoped to chat more with Qin Shou, seeing Qin Shou being the center of attention today, she feared he wouldn't have time.

"Okay, Miss Chu. When we have time another day, we must have a good chat. Perhaps I can also participate in that medical seminar you mentioned."

Qin Shou was very clear that Chu Xiaoxiao's sudden remark just now was actually meant to help him out, so Qin Shou was deeply grateful.

As the saying goes, it's rude not to reciprocate. Since the other party helped him, he naturally couldn't be too ignorant. So Qin Shou deliberately brought up the medical conference Chu Xiaoxiao mentioned yesterday.

Qin Shou thought that since there was still some time, he would diligently study that ancient book during this period, and by then, he shouldn't be too embarrassing.

Moreover, Qin Shou had figured out today that divine doctors seemed to have a great market in high society, so Qin Shou suddenly had an idea: to use this medical seminar to establish his reputation.

"Really? Big Brother Qin, you can't go back on your word!"

Chu Xiaoxiao's eyes immediately lit up upon hearing this, and a joyful expression appeared on her face.

"Haha, of course." Qin Shou nodded with a serious expression.

"Good, then I'll await your good news, Big Brother Qin."

Chu Xiaoxiao was even happier after receiving Qin Shou's affirmative reply. After bidding farewell to Qin Shou, she turned and left.

No sooner had Chu Xiaoxiao left than many more people squeezed towards Qin Shou's location, each actively showing goodwill to Qin Shou and exchanging contact information.

If before, these people were interested in befriending Qin Shou out of respect for Ren Jing, now, these people simply believed that Qin Shou himself was worth befriending.

Just as Qin Shou was dealing with so many guests who came to chat with him, he suddenly felt several strands of golden light flying towards him.

Qin Shou immediately rejoiced in his heart, knowing that this was the power of luck! He saw the golden light on Ye Wuhuan and Bai Junchen rapidly overflowing, flying towards him, and merging into his body.
