Future News: My Phone Mutated-Chapter 229 - The Banquet

Under Lin Bai’s deliberate supervision, there were no problems with the old man’s food and drink, and there were no similar cases of conflicting drugs.

In addition, the medicine that Qin Weikang prescribed for Old Master Ye was indeed the right medicine to treat the illness. It could be used to specifically treat Old Master Ye’s body.

Thus, Old Master Ye’s physical and mental state began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Old Master Ye himself also noticed the changes in his body and was very happy about it.

He even held Yu Jinmo and Lin Bai’s hands in a rather superstitious manner and sighed with a smile:

“The two of you are really my lucky stars! Seeing that the two of you are here, my illness has finally started to improve.”

Yu jinmo continued, “Then I might as well stay for a few more days. When Grandpa has fully recovered, I will go back to class.”

The old man immediately said, “That won’t do. You Can’t delay class for me.”

“Grandpa specially called you over this time because he wants to take advantage of the fact that he is still a little energetic. He wants to personally announce that he recognizes you as his godgranddaughter in front of his relatives and friends. He also wants to announce the marriage between the two of you.”

“As long as I give you this wish, I won’t have anything to worry about.”

Following that, he started to ramble on about the small-scale family banquet that was going to be held the next day. He repeatedly told Yu Jinmo to dress up beautifully tomorrow.

Yu Jinmo did not want to spoil the old master’s mood. He kept smiling and agreeing, but he felt very uncomfortable in his heart.

She was very worried that after the old man fulfilled his wish, his body would collapse all of a sudden.

But she really did not know what kind of reason she should use to reject the old man’s intentions.

Just as Yu Jinmo was feeling troubled, Lin Bai found an opportunity to change the topic.

He asked, “Grandfather, you said that Doctor Qin will be attending tomorrow’s banquet. Are there other doctors coming?”

“I mean, I have some medical questions, and I want to take the opportunity to ask them.”

Grandpa ye said, “Actually, you can just ask Dr. Qin. He will help you answer them.”

“Of course, it’s good to ask others for their opinions. We can also use this opportunity to get closer.”

“I’ve invited all my closest friends to tomorrow’s banquet. Several of them are traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, and their medical attainments are on par with Dr. Qin’s.”

Hearing the old man’s words, Lin Bai was relieved.

Everything was ready now. All he had to do was to expose Qin Weikang in front of everyone at the banquet tomorrow.

Lin Bai knew very well that in the eyes of the old man, he was just a young man.

In the old man’s opinion, no matter how talented Lin Bai was in medicine, it was impossible for him to surpass Qin Weikang’s accumulated experience in most of his life.

Even if Lin Bai revealed all his secrets now, he might not be able to gain the attention and trust of Old Master Ye. Instead, it was more likely that he would be misjudged as someone who was not good at medicine.

At least in medicine, between Lin Bai and Qin Weikang, Old Master Ye would definitely choose to trust Qin Weikang.

Therefore, if he wanted to expose Qin Weikang’s sinister behavior, the only way was to borrow the mouths of others and say what Lin Bai wanted to say.

Only when the other medical magnates unanimously decided that the drugs were incompatible would Old Master Ye believe it.

This was the only way.

That night, Yu Jianhao also flew to Dragon City and was ready to attend the banquet the next day.

After all, he was Yu Jinmo’s father. Old Master Ye should have invited him to the banquet if he wanted to announce the marriage.

In fact, Old Master Ye also wanted to invite Lin Bai’s parents over. After all, apart from announcing the marriage tomorrow, the second important event was to announce the marriage between Lin Bai and Yu Jinmo.

However, Lin Bai still had a lot of things to hide from his parents. If he wanted his parents to come to the banquet, he would have to explain a lot of things first.

Lin Bai felt that now was not the best time, so he found an excuse to say that it was inconvenient for his parents to come over and put the matter aside.

Fortunately, the old man did not insist on this issue, so the night passed smoothly.

The next day.

The servants in the Ye family’s old residence were busy since early in the morning. They decorated the living room, prepared various drinks and snacks, and many other miscellaneous things.

After a busy morning, everything was finally ready.

Near noon, the invited guests arrived one after another, chatting in twos and threes in the living room.

The atmosphere was warm and peaceful.

Old Master Ye was sick and weak, so he could only sit in his wheelchair and chat with the visiting guests.

Lin Bai and Yu Jinmo stood silently behind Old Master Ye and looked after him.

The guests had long heard through various channels that the old man had adopted a godgranddaughter, but they had never seen Yu Jinmo in person.

Now that they had seen him, they all praised Yu Jinmo’s beauty and temperament. They praised her and Lin Bai for being a perfect couple. It was a rare heaven-sent match.

Although they were all polite words, after hearing too many praises, one’s mood would still be somewhat happy.

Soon, Qin Weikang arrived.

However, as the old man’s personal doctor, he naturally didn’t need to be so polite. He simply came over to say hello and then went to greet the other few colleagues that he rarely met.

Lin Bai had been quietly observing Qin Weikang’s movements. Seeing that he was chatting happily with a few other well-known Chinese medicine masters, he secretly wondered whether the friendship between them was real or fake.

The guests were almost all here, and there was still a short period of time before the banquet officially began.

The old man said to Lin Bai, “Didn’t you say that you had some medical-related questions to ask?”

“Well, Doctor Qin is over there. The few people he’s chatting with are also experts in the industry. I’ve already introduced them to you just now.”

“Take advantage of the fact that there’s nothing much to do now and quickly go ask.”

Lin Bai was worried that he wouldn’t be able to find an opportunity to go over, so the old man took the initiative to let him go.

“Alright, then I’ll go over and ask for advice first. Xiao Mo, take good care of Grandpa. I’ll be back in a while.”

Lin Bai walked over to Qin Weikang’s side alone. At the same time, he made an expression of worship as he had repeatedly simulated it in his heart.

He greeted Qin Weikang and the other Chinese Medicine Masters one by one, expressing that he admired them very much. He even said the representative deeds of each of them to prove that he wasn’t spouting nonsense just to curry favor with them.

After a round of flattery, the few Chinese medicine masters all had a good impression of Lin Bai.

They all smiled and praised and encouraged Lin Bai, telling him not to waste his talent and interest and to continue to study medicine diligently.

Lin Bai smiled and said, “Yes, I also want to learn it systematically and properly.”

Chapter 230 quibbling

“In the past, I didn’t meet a teacher, so I could only rely on myself to flip through books and Ponder. It’s inevitable that there will be mistakes. In the future, I still have to formally acknowledge a teacher.”

“Oh right, speaking of which, I suddenly thought of something. There’s a problem that I haven’t figured out yet. I don’t know if I can ask the seniors to give me some pointers?”

The few masters of Traditional Chinese medicine naturally wouldn’t reject such a small request.

Lin Bai was Old Master Ye’s future grandson-in-law, so of course they would give him face.

“Is it a problem regarding traditional Chinese medicine? Then tell me!”

One of the famous Chinese medicine doctors, Du Qiming, waved his hand and asked Lin Bai to speak boldly.

That was what Lin Bai was waiting for.

“It’s like this. I was curious, so I asked grandfather to show me the Prescription Dr. Qin gave me.”

“I’m inexperienced, so I can’t tell much about other things. I just feel that if I take the medicine according to that prescription, I can’t touch the Angelica and Astragalus again. Otherwise, the medicinal properties will clash, and it will have the opposite effect, right?”

Lin Bai deliberately pretended to be uncertain and asked the few Chinese Medicine Masters present in a confirmatory tone.

“I relied on myself for this bit of Chinese medicine knowledge. I don’t know if I’m wrong, so I want to consult the seniors.”

Du Qiming nodded and said, “Your judgment is not wrong. We have all seen the formula that old Qin prescribed. It will indeed clash with Angelica and Astragalus, and we need to avoid eating it.”

Lin Bai asked again, “Then what if there is no such thing as abstinence? Instead, when you take the medicine, you often take Angelica and astragalus. What will happen then?”

Qin Weikang seemed to have realized something, and his face suddenly darkened. His sharp eyes stared at Lin Bai, as if he was giving some kind of silent warning.

Lin Bai noticed it, but pretended not to see it. He still maintained a curious expression, looking forward to Du Qiming’s answer.

Du Qiming didn’t think too much about it. He just thought that Lin Bai was asking a question.

He said, “If you don’t mind your mouth, the medicine will clash with each other, and it will trigger a very strong cold and evil energy. The original prescription for treating illnesses and saving people will instantly become a prescription for killing people.”

Although the other masters of Traditional Chinese medicine didn’t say anything, they all nodded in agreement.

This kind of common sense question wasn’t controversial at all. f𝘳𝚎𝐞we𝐛𝑛𝐨𝘃e𝘭.co𝘮

Lin Bai slowly put away the curious expression on his face and looked at Qin Weikang with hesitation.

“Doctor Qin... Grandpa should have treated you well, right?”

Almost all of the masters of Traditional Chinese medicine present were over sixty years old. Seeing Lin Bai’s expression, how could they not guess it?

The interests of the wealthy families were intertwined. Such methods were actually not rare.

However, no one had expected that old master ye, who had always had a keen eye and was extremely good at Reading people, would actually stumble on such a problem.

Although no one spoke, everyone was basically certain in their hearts that Qin Weikang was deliberately using the medicinal properties to clash with each other, wanting to harm Old Master Ye’s life.

Qin Weikang was tortured by this silent pressure until he almost broke down. He angrily questioned Lin Bai, “Lin Bai! What do you mean by that? !”

Lin Bai said, “I’ve been telling myself for the past two days that I might have made a mistake. You wouldn’t intentionally harm Grandpa.”

“But senior du said that the medicinal properties would clash, and the other seniors also thought so. Then it’s not that I’ve made a mistake...”

“Doctor Qin, you gave Grandpa such a prescription, and you even taught Zhang Sao to make duck soup with Angelica and astragalus. You even told her to make more of this soup in the next season.”

“Do you dare to say that you didn’t do it on purpose? !”

Lin Bai kept raising his voice, and his last question was even louder.

The other guests stopped talking and looked in their direction.

Although they didn’t hear the conversation between Lin Bai and Du Qiming, they could guess the whole story through Lin Bai’s questioning.

Qin Weikang flew into a rage out of humiliation and quibbled, “What nonsense are you talking about! What evidence do you have!”

Lin Bai said, “Grandpa has been drinking duck soup with Angelica and astragalus almost every day during this period. Isn’t this the strongest evidence?”

Qin weikang said, “That doesn’t prove that I taught the servants to make it!”

“To say the least, even if I taught Aunt Zhang, I didn’t let her continue to make this soup for Grandpa while he was taking the medicine!”

Lin Bai had already expected Qin Weikang to quibble, so he calmly asked,

“Then did you tell the maid not to make this soup?”

“Did you tell Grandpa not to touch Angelica and Astragalus while he was taking the medicine?”

“With such a serious drug conflict, logically speaking, it shouldn’t be too much to emphasize, right? Then did you say it?”

Qin Weikang:”...”

He didn’t expect Lin Bai to be so calm at such a young age. No matter how furious he was, Lin Bai didn’t show any emotion at all.

Moreover, he was still able to grasp the most crucial problem without letting go, preventing him from even having the chance to change the focus.

Faced with Lin Bai’s constant pressure, Qin Weikang was speechless. He couldn’t think of any other way to quibble.

Even though Old Master Ye was a distance away from them, he heard their argument.

Old Master Ye’s face was dark as he said to Yu Jinmo who was standing behind him, “Little Mo, wheel me there.”

Yu Jinmo could only do as he was told and push Old Master Ye in front of Qin Weikang.

Qin Weikang didn’t give up and tried to make a final struggle.

He said to Old Master Ye, “Old Master Ye, I’ve been treating your body for decades. If I wanted to harm you, I would have done it long ago. Why wait until now?”

“This is really a misunderstanding... Okay, I admit it. I was careless and forgot to remind Aunt Zhang to avoid medicinal meals containing Angelica and Astragalus.”

“But I really didn’t mean to harm you! Mr. Ye, you have to believe me!”

Old Master Ye’s face was as dark as water. He looked at Qin Weikang with eyes full of coldness and disappointment.

However, perhaps because of his family’s face, he didn’t attack Qin Weikang in public.

“If you have anything to say, go to the study room.”

“Everyone, I’m sorry. There’s something that needs to be dealt with first. I’m afraid the banquet will have to be delayed for a while.”

Old MasterYe apologized to the guests present, and then motioned for Mo Jin to push him to the study room.

Lin Bai stared into Qin Weikang’s eyes and said politely but with a hint of threat,

“Doctor Qin, Please.”

If Qin Weikang didn’t cooperate, or if he wanted to play some tricks, Lin Bai didn’t mind letting him experience the power of the divine level fighting technique.

Fortunately, Qin Weikang was a person who knew how to adapt to the situation. He knew that if he made a scene in front of so many people, it would only make him even more embarrassed, so he could only follow the old man obediently.

Lin Bai walked behind him, in a posture that was close to escorting him, constantly monitoring Qin Weikang’s every move.
