115: Strong opposition
As soon as Li Qingzhi finished speaking, Li Dong's wife, who was by the bedside, and the rest of the people, immediately became displeased.
"Qingzhi, how can you say that?"
"This is your biological father."
"Letting someone of unknown origin treat your father, and if something goes wrong, we're still responsible ourselves? How can that be?"
"This kid doesn't look like a good person at all. He's so young, even if he knows medicine, how good can his medical skills be?"
"Kid, I advise you to scram quickly. Don't think that just because you've charmed Qingzhi with sweet words, you can pretend to be competent."
The Li family members, facing Xia Xuan, all spoke in unison to accuse him, which made Xia Xuan somewhat unhappy. He looked at Li Qingzhi, who was almost jumping up in anger at her family.
"Mom, if others don't believe, don't you believe me? How could I harm my father?"
Li Qingzhi looked at her mother, Zhao Lan, somewhat angrily.
"Qingzhi, it's not that I don't believe you, it's that I don't believe this wild kid."
"You must have been deceived. Think about it, from ancient times to now, there hasn't been a divine doctor who was this young, right?"
Hearing her own mother say this, Li Qingzhi immediately fell silent, and for a moment, she didn't know what to say.
"Name: Li Qingzhi (Female Lead)"
"Gender: Female"
"Age: 22 years old"
"Identity: Eldest Young Lady of the Li family"
"Strength: Mortal"
"Appearance: 96"
Chen Tianming, who had been watching from outside, suddenly heard the system's prompt in his mind.
Just as Chen Tianming was thinking about how to approach Li Qingzhi, Xia Xuan's somewhat arrogant and indifferent voice rang out.
"Qingzhi, I only came because of you."
"If your family doesn't believe me, then there's no need for me to stay here."
Xia Xuan's words immediately made the previously furious Li Qingzhi panic.
"Xia Xuan, listen to me, they just haven't heard of you before. Please don't be angry, okay? I really want to save my father."
Li Qingzhi's words were surprisingly humble, which made her mother and the others feel even more helpless.
"Qingzhi, I really don't know what kind of bewitching potion he gave you."
"How can you be so sure that he's not deceiving you? Men nowadays are all unreliable; you mustn't be fooled by him."
Zhao Lan, from the bottom of her heart, looked down on Xia Xuan.
It wasn't for any other reason, but simply because Xia Xuan was dressed too ordinarily. Although he had a delicate appearance, apart from that, he didn't have the image of an otherworldly expert at all.
Zhao Lan had, after all, followed Li Dong for so long, and she could tell at a glance whether someone was a rich young master. No matter how she looked at it, the Xia Xuan in front of her was just a poor young man.
"Hmph, his prowess is not something you common folk can discern."
"Junior Brother, they are humiliating you like this, yet you can still endure it. This girl must be very important to you, right?"
Just then, a woman dressed in a long gown, with an exceptional temperament and exquisite beauty, slowly walked in. Her noble aura made everyone's eyes linger on her.
"Name: Ai Yun"
"Gender: Female"
"Age: 21 years old"
"Identity: Orphaned from a young age, adopted by a mysterious old man who taught her medical skills, Xia Xuan's Senior Sister"
"Strength: Early Dark Energy"
"Appearance: 96"
Without any surprise, Chen Tianming's mind once again heard the system's voice.
"Senior Sister, you... you shouldn't talk nonsense."
It seemed his thoughts were exposed. Even Xia Xuan, having his thoughts revealed in front of so many people, was slightly embarrassed.
"You are Li Qingzhi? I've heard my Junior Brother mention you. As expected of the girl my Junior Brother fancies, very good."
Ai Yun spoke to Li Qingzhi as if no one else was present. Li Qingzhi's face immediately flushed red, and she secretly glanced at Xia Xuan.
This scene, falling into the eyes of Li Qingzhi's mother, Zhao Lan, immediately made her furious.
"Li Qingzhi, don't forget, your biological father is still lying in the hospital bed. Is this a place for you to flirt and be affectionate?"
Zhao Lan's words immediately made Li Qingzhi lower her head in shame.
"Oh my, you really are blind! My Junior Brother came here only because of your precious daughter. If you hadn't given birth to a good daughter, who would interact with someone as sharp-tongued as you?"
Ai Yun wanted to continue speaking, but Xia Xuan stopped her.
"Senior Sister, it's more important to save the person and treat the illness first. Please stop talking."
Hearing her Junior Brother say this, Ai Yun merely cast a disdainful glance at Zhao Lan and the others.
"Xia Xuan, I... I... thank you!"
Li Qingzhi was touched that even at this point, Xia Xuan didn't forget to treat her father.
"Kid, you can treat my eldest brother, but let's be clear first, if anything goes wrong, you will bear all responsibility."
Li Dong's second brother, Li Li, said, having thought of something.
"Yes, Big Brother is the head of our Li family after all. If anything happens to him, why don't we try to wake him up first and have him make a will?"
As soon as Li Dong's other brother, Li Chuan, spoke, he saw Li Qingzhi glare at him.
"Third Uncle, what are you saying? My father is just in a coma. Don't you think this is going too far?"
Zhao Lan also had her own little plan regarding this matter and quickly added.
"Li Chuan, I know what you're thinking. You just want to split the family property. As long as your eldest brother is alive for one day, you can forget about such a thing."
Watching this scene, Ai Yun curled her lips in disdain.
"Since that's the case, if any problems arise, I will bear all responsibility!"
Xia Xuan looked at Li Qingzhi and finally sighed, saying.
"Hmph, what an ignorant brat. I'd like to see how you treat him."
The bald doctor, who had been silent all this time, finally had a chance to speak.
Under everyone's gaze, Xia Xuan took out a handful of silver needles from somewhere and began to pierce Li Dong's body.
"Oh, so it's traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture. But what's the use of acupuncture? It's just a gimmick."
Seeing Xia Xuan use silver needles, the bald doctor immediately spoke with disdain.
"Truly a frog in a well, a dog's eyes can't recognize good things."
Ai Yun even had the urge to teach this bald doctor a lesson; he actually looked down on her Junior Brother, which was too infuriating.
