Chapter 226: Chapter 226: Scram

"Ye Feng, Manager Qin Nuannuan of the Hundred Flowers Building is in critical condition. Her life is hanging by a thread. We sent a few doctors, but they were all helpless. She’s always treated Hundred Herbs Hall exceptionally well, so I’d like you to take a look and try to treat her!"

Ye Feng had other matters to attend to and was about to refuse, but when he heard it was the general manager of the Hundred Flowers Building, he agreed immediately.

His Sixth Master had mentioned her to him many times. Qin Nuannuan, the general manager of the Hundred Flowers Building in the Imperial Capital, was a girl she had adopted and raised herself. Not only was she exceptionally beautiful, but she was also intelligent, wise, and extremely capable. Sixth Master had told Ye Feng that he absolutely had to meet this Qin Nuannuan when he got to the Imperial Capital, and while he was at it, he should sleep with her.

Ye Feng wasn’t such a beast as to sleep with every woman he met, but since his master had raised her personally, she was practically family. For that reason, Ye Feng couldn’t bear to let her meet a tragic end.

There was still an hour before the medical skills competition, which was plenty of time.

So he nodded, got in his car, and sped toward the Hundred Flowers Building.

Ten minutes later, Ye Feng arrived in front of the Hundred Flowers Building. Just as he was about to enter, two burly men blocked his path and spoke in cold tones:

"Please present your membership card!"

Ye Feng shook his head. "I’m here to treat your general manager!"

The moment Ye Feng finished speaking, a burly guard sized him up, his eyes filled with contempt. "A little punk like you knows medicine? You’re obviously using that as an excuse to get in and prey on our girls. Get the hell out of here, or I won’t be so nice!"

Ye Feng had no time to waste on them and walked directly toward the lobby.

The two guards flew into a rage. "Did you not fucking hear me? Take one more step inside, and I’ll break your goddamn legs..."

As they spoke, they moved to rush over and block Ye Feng again. Ye Feng turned his head, glared at the two, and roared:

"SCRAM!"

The two were struck by the wave of sound and sent flying sideways, crashing heavily to the ground, battered and bruised.

Without a second glance, Ye Feng walked straight into the Hundred Flowers Building and quickly disappeared from sight.

The two men scrambled to their feet, absolutely livid. They had worked here for so long, and this was the first time they had been so thoroughly humiliated.

The burly guard roared hysterically, "He dares to cause trouble in the Hundred Flowers Building? That son of a bitch must have a death wish! If I don’t teach him a lesson he’ll never forget, I’ll be damned! Let’s go! Call for backup! Call for backup!"

...

「At the same time.」

「On the second floor.」

In the general manager’s office, a young woman lay on a large bed in the inner suite. Her face was pale, and she was utterly still and silent. Though gravely ill and having lost her usual vibrancy, one could still discern her absolutely stunning features.

The general manager of the Imperial Capital’s Hundred Flowers Building, Qin Nuannuan.

A middle-aged doctor looked at Qin Nuannuan and murmured, "President Qin, our boss has already promised to invite a Divine Doctor over. You should be alright! You have to hold on!"

Li Ming, a doctor from Hundred Herbs Hall.

He had just finished speaking when an old man, who was packing his things to leave, looked at Li Ming and said coldly, "Li Ming, I’ve already told you. The patient is suffering from total organ failure. Even a god couldn’t save her now. Don’t you understand plain language?"

Li Ming looked at the old man, his face flushing as he said, "Divine Doctor Guo, our boss said he’s inviting a Divine Doctor over. He’ll cure President Qin..."

The old man sneered at Li Ming. "A Divine Doctor? What Divine Doctor? Could his skills possibly be greater than mine? I said she can’t be saved, and that means she can’t be saved. Understand?"

Li Ming’s mouth hung open, speechless. But just then, a calm voice rang out from the doorway: "Your opinion is bullshit!"

As the voice faded, a young man walked in with his hands clasped behind his back.

Ye Feng had arrived.

Rebuked so disrespectfully, the old man’s face darkened. He glared at Ye Feng and said coldly, "Who are you to be so arrogant?"

Ye Feng replied calmly, "Ye Feng, of Hundred Herbs Hall."

The old man sized up Ye Feng, then turned to Li Ming and chuckled derisively. "So this is your so-called Divine Doctor? Is Hundred Herbs Hall joking?

"I say, Li Ming, have all the doctors at Hundred Herbs Hall died? Sending a wet-behind-the-ears kid like this to embarrass yourselves?"

Li Ming looked at Ye Feng, and the hope in his eyes dimmed.

’He’s so young. Even if he has some medical skill, how great could he possibly be?’

’The boss was really too reckless this time!’

But Ye Feng walked straight to the bedside, took out his silver needles, and prepared to treat Qin Nuannuan.

At that moment, the old man stepped forward to block him and said coldly:

"I said she’s beyond saving. Are you deaf? Get out of my way, now!"

But before he could finish, Ye Feng whipped his head around, glared at him, and barked, "SCRAM!"

The old man was instantly sent stumbling backward as if struck by a battering ram, and he landed on the floor with a THUD.

Seeing this, Li Ming’s face turned pale. ’How can this young man be so impulsive? To be so rude to that old man... isn’t he trying to bring a catastrophic disaster down on Hundred Herbs Hall?’

He hurried over to Ye Feng and exclaimed, "Young man, do you know who he is? That’s Divine Doctor Guo—Guo Chao! He’s ranked third on the list of the Nation’s Sacred Hands! He’s an illustrious figure in the world of Chinese medicine! How could you be so rude to him? You have to apologize to him, quickly! Otherwise, you’ll be in huge trouble!"

Just then, Guo Chao scrambled up from the floor. He glared at Ye Feng, grinding his teeth. "How dare you be so rude to me! He’s already in huge trouble. I’m telling you, it’s not just him who’s going to be screwed—Hundred Herbs Hall is going down with him! I’ll make sure he has no place left in the world of Chinese medicine, and I’ll see to it that Hundred Herbs Hall is completely ruined! Just you wait!"

With that, he slung his medicine box over his shoulder and stormed out.

Li Ming’s face was white with fear. He looked at Ye Feng and was about to try to reason with him when, in the next moment, he couldn’t help but cry out in shock:

"The Forty-nine Yang Returning Needles! You’re using the Forty-nine Yang Returning Needles!"

Guo Chao, who had already reached the door, curled his lip in disdain. "Li Ming, what the hell are you babbling about? The Forty-nine Yang Returning Needles were lost long ago. How could a wet-behind-the-ears kid like him possibly know it? If he really knows that technique, not only will I forget about what happened today, I’ll even kneel and kowtow to him..."

After speaking, he casually glanced over at Qin Nuannuan. The next second, he froze on the spot as if struck by lightning.

It took him a long moment to react. He staggered over to the bedside and checked carefully. The next moment, he shrieked, "The Forty-nine Yang Returning Needles! It really is the Forty-nine Yang Returning Needles!"

Just then, Li Ming shouted excitedly, "She’s awake! President Qin is awake!"

Guo Chao looked down and saw that Qin Nuannuan, who had been completely unresponsive just moments ago, had indeed opened her eyes. The pallor of her face had been replaced by a healthy, rosy glow.

Guo Chao stared at Ye Feng, completely dumbfounded.
