"It's settled then."
After speaking, Lin Xiaotian walked up to Qin Shanshan and, after examining her from head to toe, tapped his chin and said, "Besides not sleeping well lately, you've probably also had some numbness in your feet, unclear consciousness, and frequent hallucinations, right?"
"Miracle doctor, you truly are a miracle doctor. You could tell my symptoms just by looking at me?" Qin Shanshan couldn't help but be surprised.
These were symptoms she had only recently developed, and even Physician Xue hadn't noticed them.
Physician Xue had just taken her pulse and hadn't detected these ailments. Unexpectedly, this young miracle doctor had seen through them.
Lin Xiaotian waved his hand and smiled faintly, "It's a small matter, no need to be surprised. What will truly surprise you is yet to come."
"I can cure your illness. I only need nine needles to heal you. However, when I use the needles, I'll need you to completely unfasten your upper garments. Are you willing?"
"What?"
While Qin Shanshan was still stunned, her younger sister couldn't help but rush forward, her eyes wide with anger. "You little scoundrel, you're trying to take advantage of both of us?"
"I'm telling you, that's not happening."
"Duoduo!"
Qin Shanshan felt that Lin Xiaotian wasn't intentionally trying to take advantage of them. She turned and reprimanded Qin Duoduo coldly.
However, Qin Duoduo remained unfazed, stamping her foot and saying anxiously, "Sister, he's clearly a scoundrel. He made an inappropriate request to me earlier, and now he wants to see your body. I think he just wants to take advantage of us."
"I'll find a way to cure your illness. We don't need this scoundrel's treatment. Let's go."
With that, Qin Duoduo tried to drag Qin Shanshan away.
Before they could take two steps, Lin Xiaotian calmly said, "If you take her away, I guarantee that within an hour, her condition will worsen. And by then, even an immortal descending to earth couldn't save her."
"Heh, little scoundrel, do you think I'd believe you?"
Qin Duoduo chuckled dismissively. "Don't think you're a miracle doctor just because Mr. Xue praised you."
"You're so young. I think you're just good at bragging. Moreover, it's possible you and this Mr. Xue are relatives, deliberately trying to take advantage of my sister and me."
"Wow, you're really smart, you figured that out too."
Lin Xiaotian, instead of getting angry, became happy. He walked up to Pavilion Master Xue, slung an arm over his shoulder, and continued to say to Qin Duoduo, "You're right. Pavilion Master Xue and I are indeed relatives. We're here to trick you."
"Little miracle doctor, you..."
"Shh, don't rush. I was just joking with her."
Lin Xiaotian saw Pavilion Master Xue's surprised expression and, before he could finish speaking, whispered a reminder.
Hearing Lin Xiaotian's words, Qin Duoduo's fists clenched in anger. She turned back and said, "Sister, did you hear that? He's indeed colluding with Mr. Xue to trick us. We've fallen for their scheme."
"Silence."
Qin Shanshan saw through Lin Xiaotian's intentions. He was clearly trying to provoke her sister.
Ignoring Qin Duoduo, she walked up to Lin Xiaotian and said respectfully, "Little miracle doctor, my sister is ill-mannered. Please forgive her disrespect earlier."
"I believe in your medical skills, and I am willing to cooperate with your treatment."
"Oh? I didn't expect you to be much smarter and gentler than your sister."
Lin Xiaotian put his hands on his chest and raised an eyebrow. "You really don't mind unfastening your clothes in front of me?"
"Yes, as long as the little miracle doctor can save my life, I am willing to cooperate with anything," Qin Shanshan said resolutely.
"Alright, then follow me."
Seeing her decisive attitude, Lin Xiaotian casually agreed.
As the two of them were leaving, Qin Duoduo stepped forward to try and dissuade Qin Shanshan again, but Qin Shanshan sternly rebuked her, "Duoduo, stop making a fuss. The little miracle doctor is not a骗子 (piànzi - swindler), I believe he can definitely cure my illness."
"Sister, he's just a scoundrel, you really can't..."
"Alright, you wait here obediently. If the little miracle doctor cures my illness, you will apologize to him properly."
With that, Qin Shanshan followed Lin Xiaotian into the ward.
*Bang!*
Lin Xiaotian walked in and closed the door, causing Qin Duoduo to become anxious outside.
Her mind conjured all sorts of unpleasant scenarios. If Lin Xiaotian had any improper intentions towards her sister, how could her sister, with her weakened body, possibly resist him?
If he covered her sister's mouth to prevent her from crying out, wouldn't she be at his mercy?
Thinking of this, Qin Duoduo's palms began to sweat, and her worry intensified.
Physician Xue, however, was not worried at all. He believed that with Lin Xiaotian's medical skills, he would definitely be able to treat Qin Shanshan.
"Mmm..."
About five minutes later, a low groan suddenly came from the ward, which was Qin Shanshan.
Qin Duoduo's heart skipped a beat. She hurried to the ward door, pressed her ear against the door, and listened. She heard her sister seemingly in distress, with continuous low moans, as if she was being bullied.
"Ah, little miracle doctor, slow down."
A few minutes later, a clear sentence from Qin Shanshan came from inside, which Qin Duoduo clearly heard.
At this point, Qin Duoduo could no longer hold back!
She was about to push the door open, but Physician Xue stopped her. "Miss Qin, please wait a little longer. During the needle treatment, Dr. Lin cannot be disturbed."
"You old man, hurry up and move aside! If I don't go in, my sister will be bullied to death."
"If my sister has even the slightest problem, I'll make you two pay with your lives."
After speaking, Qin Duoduo forcefully pushed Physician Xue aside.
But just as she was about to push open the ward door, Lin Xiaotian opened it from the inside. Her body lunged forward, unable to stop herself, and she fell directly into Lin Xiaotian's arms.
Lin Xiaotian felt a tingling sensation all over. He hadn't expected this little girl to be so forward. He had just finished treating her sister, and she was already so eager to throw herself into his embrace.
"Hehe, I've already forgiven you. You don't need to be so proactive with me, do you? I forgot to tell you, I have a girlfriend. If you like me, you should give up on that idea."
"You... Who do you think likes you!"
Qin Duoduo was so angry that her face was practically steaming. She quickly wriggled out of Lin Xiaotian's arms and said indignantly, "A scoundrel like you, this young lady wishes she could kill you."
"That was just an accident. I need to go in and save my sister..."
As she said this, she suddenly remembered her sister being bullied and hastily looked towards Qin Shanshan. Her originally pale complexion had now regained its rosy hue, and her spirit was much better than before.
However, her hair was disheveled, and her clothes were just being put on, clearly indicating that something had happened.
