Parting on Bad Terms
"Alright." Xuemin nodded. "Be careful on the road. You've been drinking, so if you're driving …"
"I've been awake for a while now. Do I look drunk to you, Grandpa Guan?" Lin Yi smiled. Drinking? Lin Yi rarely got drunk. Ever since he started practicing the Art of Dragon Mastery, Lin Yi's tolerance for alcohol had increased as well.
The old man at home often dragged Lin Yi to drink with him, but it was always Old Lin who was completely drunk after the drinks, while Lin Yi was completely fine. Old Lin was quite annoyed by this. Drinking with someone who couldn't get drunk wasn't fun at all!
In the end, Old Lin stopped allowing Lin Yi to drink, telling him to drink plain water instead! The reason was simple. He thought Lin Yi was wasting alcohol, and since drinking was the same as drinking water, he might as well drink water instead.
Xuemin nodded. Lin Yi didn't look drunk at all. What he'd done to House Liu just now was enough to make them lose their temper!
After Lin Yi left, Liu Tianyi let out a long sigh and smiled bitterly at Xuemin. "Elder Guan, I'm sorry for all the trouble I've caused!"
After all, Liu Tianyi had come to Xuemin for treatment. Now that he'd switched to Lin Yi, it was a little disrespectful. While Lin Yi had been introduced by Xuemin, Liu Tianyi still had to explain himself.
He'd been too polite to Lin Yi earlier, and he was worried that Xuemin might have some ulterior motives. Lin Yi was a miracle doctor, but so was Xuemin. Liu Tianyi didn't want to offend him!
Xuemin waved his hand. "I don't have the ability, but I hope my patient can get better. Did you guys know Lin Yi before? "
"He's the one who saved my father's life I told you about last time!" Liu Tianyi explained, "So, this is why I believe that he can cure my father's illness!"
"Alright, Heaven Wings!" Zhenhu spoke up at this time. "When you raise money, give Professor Guan an extra two million!"
"Okay, Dad." Liu Tianyi quickly nodded.
"Forget about my consultation fee. I didn't cure your illness." Guan Xuemin waved his hand and was about to refuse.
"No matter what, you've helped me for so many days. You should give me the money!" Zhenhu said. In his eyes, Xuemin's referral fee was acceptable.
"Alright then, I'll accept it." Xuemin thought about it. He'd just gotten a hundred million from Lin Yi, but he'd opened a company and might need more money. Two million was good enough, and so he accepted the money.
After a few more words, Liu Tianyi stood up and left. It was getting late, and Xuemin seemed to have drunk quite a bit. He didn't want to disturb his rest.
On the way back, Huiru heard that Lin Yi had asked for a hundred million. She was shocked! House Wu was a powerful house, but they were still one of those hidden houses that specialized in ancient martial arts. They didn't have many industries, and a hundred million was enough to last them for a few years!
"Uncle, that Lin Yi is a liar! He's Sun Jingyi's boyfriend, how could he be a miracle doctor? Don't let him trick you! " Chentian was pissed off at Lin Yi's demand. If he let Lin Yi get a hundred million, how was he going to compete with Lin Yi? Sun Jingyi wouldn't even look at him in the eye when the time came, and the funny thing was that this was all caused by his uncle's family!
"Wu Chentian, what are you talking about? What do you know? Shut up! " Liu Tianyi was angry at his nephew for being so immature. "Don't you think you've caused enough trouble? You've already offended Miracle Doctor Lin, do you want to kill your Grandpa Liu? "
"Hmph! Uncle, I'm doing this for your own good. If you don't want to listen, then forget it. I won't bother you anymore! " Chentian's stubborn young master's temper flared up. He was the most promising of the younger generation in House Wu, the one who had the highest chance of reaching Mystic in Iron Fist Arts, so he was respected everywhere in the house. He had never been humiliated like this before.
"Tian! Don't be rash! Apologize to your uncle! "Huiru was panicking, and quickly pulled Chentian's hand.
"Apologize? Hmph! " Chentian smiled coldly. "Aunt, since uncle looks down on House Wu, then forget it. Do you want to come back with me, or stay here?"
"Tian, stop it!" Huiru didn't expect Chentian to be this angry.
"Alright, aunt, since you're already a part of House Liu, I won't force you!" Chentian's eyes flashed with determination. "Stop the car, I'm getting off!"
Liu Tianyi, naturally, wouldn't let Chentian do as he pleased- he stopped the car by the roadside and smiled coldly. Since this Wu kid didn't know what was good for him, then he shouldn't blame him for being ruthless! Other things were fine, but his father's illness was involved. He wouldn't be nice to Chentian!
House Wu, hmph, even if he was from House Wu, he was just a junior. How dare he be so arrogant in front of him! Liu Tianyi was furious. "Huiru, you're going back with him?"
"I … I won't be messing around with Tian anymore …" Huiru sighed helplessly. She knew that from today onwards, there would be a rift between House Wu and House Liu. But now that she was a daughter-in-law of House Liu, she had to stand on House Liu's side. This was the foundation of being a wife- she'd be laughed at if she messed around with House Wu.
She wanted to mediate, but she didn't know how. It was normal for Chentian to be angry, but Lin Yi was Sun Jingyi's boyfriend- that alone was enough for Chentian to not be nice to him! But Lin Yi was someone who could save his father-in-law, and this wasn't going to be easy to mediate …
"Huiru, go and send him off. He's your nephew, after all," Zhenhu, who hadn't spoken until now, spoke up. He didn't want to say anything about House Wu's business. As the head of House Liu, he couldn't interfere with House Wu's business.
What happened to House Wu's nephew would be handled by House Wu, and it wasn't up to others to say anything.
"Yes, Dad!" Huiru nodded and sent Chentian off the car. She whispered after two steps, "Tian, don't do anything rash. That Lin Yi's really good at medicine!"
"Aunt, you're helping him too?" Chentian hmphed unhappily.
"If you want to deal with him, at least wait until he heals my father-in-law's illness- to be honest, I'm really pissed off that he's asking for so much. If you can get that one hundred million back for me, I'm sure Uncle would be happy to see it too!" Huiru said softly.
