Former Comrade
Chapter 138 - Former Comrade
"Jun Bro, I met President Guan once at the bookstore." Lin Yi smiled as he explained to Huaijun. "We were discussing medical stuff back then … … Oh, right, I was thinking about your treatment plan when I got back from your place, and there were a few things I couldn't quite remember. I left my reference books at home, so I went to the bookstore to look them up."
"So you know Grandpa Guan? That's even better, saves me the trouble of introducing you." Huaijun breathed out in relief- he'd accomplished his task of introducing Lin Yi to Lin Yi, and the two would only get along better now that they knew each other.
Huaijun didn't think much of Lin Yi's words, but Guan Xuemin was shocked by what he heard. He'd thought that Lin Yi must've come from some hidden Herbal family at such a young age, and that it'd be normal for him to have lost a couple of ancient prescriptions.
But Lin Yi going to the bookstore to look up information and write a prescription for Huaijun was a little shocking! This meant that the prescription was written by Lin Yi himself, and not a ready-made one. Just this alone was enough to show how much knowledge Lin Yi had in Eastern medicine.
But … … He didn't even know the properties of the medicine, and he had to go to a bookstore to look it up, and he was giving it to someone else … … Wasn't he a little too brave? Huaijun believed him and used it … … Just what was the relationship between these two?
Guan Xuemin was a shrewd man, and he could tell from the subtle gestures and attitudes of Lin Yi and Huaijun that there was a close relationship between the two, but he couldn't guess the specifics.
It seemed that Lin Yi's medicine was indeed effective on Huaijun, and that was what shocked Guan Xuemin the most. It seemed that Lin Yi wasn't relying on his family's prescriptions, but that he really was skillful- today's meeting was something to look forward to.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Guan Xuemin shook his head, a little embarrassed. "Back then, I even asked you to apply for my Chinese Medical Academy. There's no one in the academy who can teach you. You should be our teacher!"
"Heh, Director Guan, you must be joking." Lin Yi replied politely, "What I know is just some unorthodox things. After all, my main profession is not studying traditional Chinese medicine …"
"What? Don't you study Chinese medicine? " Guan Xuemin was even more shocked by Lin Yi's words. He even thought to himself, Is this kid trying to show off in front of me? Huaijun's illness was something that countless specialists couldn't do anything about, and yet you cured him so easily? Isn't Eastern medicine your main profession?
However, seeing the sincerity on Lin Yi's face and connecting it to Lin Yi's words in the bookstore that day, Guan Xuemin had no choice but to believe what Lin Yi said.
"Yeah, I'm a twelfth grader right now." Lin Yi said, scratching his head. "Actually, Jun Bro knows about me … … right?"
Huaijun didn't know what to say- there was no way he could tell Guan Xuemin about Lin Yi's condition. He looked at Lin Yi, troubled. How was he supposed to tell Guan Xuemin if he didn't?
"Ha … …" Lin Yi didn't want to hide anything from Guan Xuemin anyway- he was the one who'd been treating Huaijun's injuries all this time, so he had to know how Huaijun got injured and what kind of job Huaijun did in the past. He wouldn't have been able to come up with the most effective treatment plan otherwise. There was no need to hide anything from Guan Xuemin. Besides, fighting alongside Huaijun was only a small part of his life. "Guan Xuemin, Jun Bro and I used to be comrades."
"Comrades … …" Guan Xuemin paused at the word, his expression changing abruptly. Xuemin knew what Huaijun used to do, and Huaijun's comrades-in-arms were … …
Lin Yi didn't look more than twenty years old, did he? He'd said that he was a twelfth grader right now, and he was Huaijun's comrade? Wasn't this a little too miraculous?
Guan Xuemin finally understood why Huaijun had dared to drink the medicine Lin Yi gave him! He didn't know that Lin Yi was a miracle doctor, but the friendship and trust they'd built through battle wasn't something ordinary people could compare to!
How did Lin Yi turn into a high schooler again? Guan Xuemin didn't know what was going on, but he didn't ask for the details since it might be confidential information.
"So you and Little Yang are comrades … Look at me, all I can do is talk. Come in, let's talk inside …" Guan Xuemin realized that he was still blocking the entrance of the villa and hadn't invited anyone in. This was also because he was too shocked. Otherwise, Guan Xuemin wouldn't have made such a low-level mistake.
"It's fine." Lin Yi smiled. "You don't have to be so courteous, Mr. Guan. Jun Bro would've lost his life if it weren't for you. I should be the one thanking you, you don't have to be so courteous with me! You're an elder, and I'm a junior, there's no need to be so polite. "
"There's no such thing as seniority!" Guan Xuemin said with a wave of his hand. "I'm old enough to understand that! Your medical skills are better than mine, and you're the expert in front of me. You're a teacher, and nothing can be accomplished without rules! Besides, Yang's elder is a good friend of mine, and it's only right for me to do my best. "
"Ah, that's different- Jun Bro's one of my people, of course I have to thank you." Lin Yi said as he followed Guan Xuemin into the living room.
"Hm?" Guan Xuemin blinked at Lin Yi's words. "What do you mean by 'one of your people'?"
Guan Xuemin was a bit older than Guan Xuemin, but he was still paying attention to the news on the internet. A chill ran down Guan Xuemin's spine when he heard Lin Yi say that Yang Huaijun was one of his people … … There couldn't be something going on between the two, could there … … But Yang Huaijun wasn't someone like that, and Lin Yi didn't look like that either … … What did he mean by that?
Both Huaijun and Lin Yi thought of something at the same time when they saw the weird look on Guan Xuemin's face. Huaijun understood what Lin Yi was getting at, but Guan Xuemin didn't … … Huaijun explained with a bitter smile. "Grandpa Guan, Lin Yi used to be the captain of our squad, and he's famous for being protective of his subordinates … … We're all his people … …"
"Ah? Mister Lin's your captain? "Guan Xuemin was even more surprised now. It seemed that Lin Yi was right- Eastern medicine wasn't his main profession, after all. He was good in other areas as well, or he wouldn't have become Huaijun's captain!
