With this statement, Su Yuanchao's subordinates were once again stunned. This wasn't just about breaking Su Yuanchao's arm; it was a threat to the entire Su family.
After all, this was a second-rate family in the capital. While not comparable to the truly top families, they were leagues above the company owners in a small city like Qingyun!
Leaving the Western-style house, Li Se looked at Su Mei and chuckled, "How do you feel?"
"How do you want me to feel?" Su Mei retorted.
"Never mind," Li Se felt it was strange whenever Su Mei said certain things.
"Thank you for today," Su Mei suddenly said.
"Thank me?" Li Se was taken aback.
"For letting me see such a satisfying side," Su Mei smiled faintly, a smile that could eclipse everything in the world.
Li Se was mesmerized, lost in thought.
"Do you want to come to my room tonight?" Su Mei asked softly, her finger tracing Li Se's hand on his back as she spoke.
"Ahem, Sister Mei, could you not use your charm on me?" Li Se coughed twice and immediately activated his Qi Cultivation technique. This damn little enchantress was too much trouble.
Overnight, Su Yuanchao was rushed back to the capital. By the time he arrived, it was already the next day.
When the Su family saw Su Yuanchao's broken arm, everyone fell silent.
Su Meichao, Su Yuanchao's father, was extremely grim. The reason he had sent his son to Qingyun City was to pave the way for him to become the next head of the Su family. After all, with their Su family's capabilities, a mere Qingyun City could be easily handled.
However, he never expected that after only two days, his son's arm would be broken.
"Patriarch, Li Se said that if our Su family dares to step into Qingyun City again, we'll cripple one person for each person who goes," the middle-aged man who had followed Su Yuanchao said, lowering his head. He was also injured, but not severely. The main issue was that in that situation, he truly couldn't help Su Yuanchao, as two formidable experts were watching him.
"Well said, Li Se! I'd like to see how you intend to withstand the power of my Su family!"
Su Meichao said fiercely, then turned to Zuo Qingyi, "Divine Doctor Zuo, how is my son's condition? Can this arm be restored?"
Zuo Qingyi's expression was grave. He shook his head and sighed, "The opponent's attack was ruthless. There's nothing that can be done now. This arm is considered ruined."
Su Meichao stumbled back two steps, almost falling to the ground. Fortunately, the butler beside him caught him. He roared to the heavens, "Li Se, my Su family and you are irreconcilable enemies! And that bitch Su Mei, I'll turn her into a medicinal catalyst immediately! Give the order: no matter the cost, you must bring down Yuanfeng Group! And the formulas for painkillers and hemostatic drugs must be obtained!"
"And Li Se, cripple him! Bring Su Mei back, dead or alive!"
"Yes!"
...
Li Se was unaware that the Su family was already completely enraged. However, even if he knew, he wouldn't have taken it too seriously. If they were in the capital, perhaps he would have to be wary of the Su family. But unfortunately, this was Qingyun City, merely a second-rate family, nothing to be overly concerned about.
Now, with his reputation for reviving the dead spreading, he had an overwhelming number of patients daily. Even though the clinic had many experienced traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, they were still swamped every day. Especially today, there were an exceptional number of patients, and Elder Huang and the others were struggling to cope. Li Se, who normally only handled complex and difficult cases, had to see patients today.
"Are you experiencing nasal congestion, sneezing, headache, cough, and spitting white, thin phlegm?" Li Se asked after feeling the pulse of a man in front of him.
"Yes, yes, yes!" The man immediately nodded.
Li Se said, "You have caught a cold. Although the weather is quite hot now, you should still be careful not to catch a chill when you sleep at night. Take Huo Xiang Zheng Qi Shui orally, twice a day, and you will recover quickly."
"Thank you, Divine Doctor Li!" The man said gratefully.
"Next." After the man left, Li Se called for the next patient.
A middle-aged woman immediately sat down. Her face was haggard, and she covered her forehead, saying, "Doctor, I've been having a headache recently. Please take a look for me. It's so uncomfortable."
"Extend your hand." Li Se said.
The middle-aged woman nodded and extended her hand.
After taking her pulse, Li Se made a diagnosis: "Liver qi stagnation, emotional distress. I'll give you acupuncture and then prescribe a herbal formula. Taking it for three days will lead to a full recovery."
"Okay!" The middle-aged woman nodded repeatedly.
After a round of acupuncture, the middle-aged woman indeed felt much refreshed and her headache had subsided. She expressed her gratitude to Li Se.
"Are you also experiencing sleep disturbances?" Li Se asked again.
"Yes, doctor." The middle-aged woman was surprised that Li Se had even noticed this.
"Just eat some suan zaoren when you get back, and you'll be fine," Li Se said with a smile.
"Okay, thank you, doctor." The middle-aged woman then left.
"Next!" Li Se called out again.
However, just as the next patient was about to come forward, a portly man walked over, accompanied by a male secretary. He shoved the patient aside and asked Li Se, "Are you Doctor Li?"
"I am. Is there something you need?" Li Se frowned slightly, displeased with the male secretary's attitude.
"Our boss wants to see a doctor!" the male secretary said indifferently. The boss he referred to was the portly man.
"Don't people have to queue to see a doctor?"
"Exactly! How can you push someone?"
"We have so many people queuing here. Do you know how long we've been waiting?"
"..."
The people in the queue immediately expressed their dissatisfaction.
There were an unusual number of patients today, with many having waited for half an hour. They all knew Li Se's medical skills, so they were willing to wait this long.
Moreover, going to a large hospital meant even longer queues and higher costs, and the results weren't necessarily better than Li Se's treatment.
The male secretary shouted, "All of you, shut up! What are you people? You're just insignificant lives. Do you know who my boss is? He is Tao Duoduo, the chairman of Tianqi Jewelry, worth hundreds of millions. Are you trash comparable to him? Get out of the way immediately, stay away from my boss, lest any contagious diseases spread to him."
The crowd of patients was furious upon hearing this.
"What's so great about being rich?" someone couldn't help but retort angrily.
"I apologize, but being rich is indeed great. My boss pays one hundred thousand for a consultation. Can you afford that?" the male secretary said coldly.
Instantly, the person who had spoken dared not reply. One hundred thousand for a consultation, they certainly couldn't afford it. Seeing a doctor at this clinic cost only about a hundred yuan per visit, which was very affordable. Coupled with Li Se's excellent medical skills, this was why they were willing to queue here.
Tao Duoduo sat down arrogantly, looking at Li Se with utmost disdain, and commanded, "Take my pulse. I haven't been able to eat well lately. If you can cure my illness, I'll reward you with one hundred thousand!"
The male secretary urged from the side, "Did you hear that? One hundred thousand as a reward! In this shabby clinic, you wouldn't even earn that much in a month. Treat him well. If anything happens to my boss, I'll tear down your clinic!"
