âFather!â the rims of Shen Jinglinâs eyes redden as soon as he sees this man. He calls out with a low voice and steps forward.
As if he could feel a living person approach, the man immediately snarls and opens his mouth, frenziedly biting over.
Shen Jinglin staggers back.
Looking at his father Shen Yichengâs miserable appearance, he could no longer hold his tears back from falling.
Just at this moment, Dr. Zhou faintly speaks from behind: âStep aside! This doctor will give him a treatment first.â
Saying that, he steps forward and presses several acupuncture points on Shen Yichengâs body.
Then, Dr. Zhou makes him drink a bottle of draught.
When the draught reaches his stomach, something magical occurs.
The Shen father who had been raving madly all this while, actually slowly calms down, falling to lie down on the floor. Heâs completely silent.
Shen Jinglin steps forward to check, and finds that his father has unexpectedly, truly fallen asleep.
Since the onset of his fatherâs illness, he had never lain down to get a proper sleep.
But after taking Dr. Zhouâs medicine, he, he has actually genuinely fallen asleep.
âDr. Zhou, your medical skills are seriously too brilliant!â Su Yuexiang loudly exclaims in admiration, bowing again and again, âStill, asking the sage doctorâs benevolence, please save our familyâs master!â
Dr. Zhou strokes his beard, a proud look on his face: âOf course, itâs possible for this old man to save him.â
âBut I have already said my conditions! Shen Jinglin must enter my Zhou family, otherwise, Iâll have to ask you to find someone whoâs better qualified than me!â
âDr. Zhou, if you wonât save him, it would be an irreversibly hopeless situation for our master!â Su Yuexiang cries out in alarm, her face filled with anxiousness.
After that, she turns towards Shen Jinglin.
Tears streaming down, she appears unspeakably pitiful, âJinglin, aunt Su is already begging you. We only have widows and orphans left in the Shen family. Without your fatherâs support, our Shen family would collapse! Iâm begging you, save the master!â
Shen Jinglin fearfully looks at his unconcious father, then he turns to look at Dr. Zhouâs daughter.
Said person immediately cracks her mouth towards him, revealing a greedy sacrificial bowl. That mouth sweetly calls out, âJinglin-brother, Nunu likes you the most, hurry up and become Nunuâs husband!â
Shen Jinglin only feels despair in his heart.
If he agrees, then the second half of his life is as good as ruined.
But if he doesnât agree, then what about fatherâs life?
âJinglin, if you wonât agree, then aunt Su can only agree to the Lu familyâs request and marry Muyan to their foolish son, Lu Chengcai. With the Lu familyâs enormous influence, their family being extremely wealthy, I believe that weâd definitely be able to find a way to treat the masterâs illness.â
Su Yuexiang wipes the tears from her eyes: âI also donât want to push Muyan into the pit of fire, but who let the Lu familyâs foolish son take a fancy to Muyan? If master will never wake up again, the Shen familyâs orphans and widows, what can we do if the Lu family imposes to grab our people? Ah, it would be a pity for Muyan, countenance of a flower, face like the moon â only to be married to that fool from the Lu family.â
Shen Jinglinâs teeth makes a grinding sound, despair floods into his eyes.
His tightly clenched fists slowly slackens, his voice hoarse as he says: âAs long as I agree to enter into the Zhou family, you must ensure that you can cure my father.â
âNaturally, this old man is the number one Godly Doctor in Tianyuan City. So long as the marriage sedan would lift you to enter the Zhou family, and you and my daughter consummate the marriage, this old man will immediately cure Master Shenâs illness for you.â thereâs a coercive light in Dr. Zhouâs eyes. He doesnât speak too fast nor too slow.
At the side, Zhou Huanu trembles in excitement even more, the way she looks at Shen Jinglin, is like how she would look at a fatty meat thatâs about to enter into her mouth.
