Chapter 657: Chapter 655: Are You Going to Join the Fun?

Because of Pan Xiaolei’s unexpected pregnancy, everyone who was originally doing their own thing gathered again at the pavilion.

Lin Wanwan’s two senior brothers and Liang Jingtian, the Western Medicine senior, were somewhat surprised to hear that Lin Wanwan had diagnosed the pregnancy pulse.

It was just because Lin Wanwan was too young and didn’t seem like someone with such high diagnostic skills.

Regarding the pregnancy pulse, "Su Wen" says: "If the pulse of the lesser yin in the hand is strong, then one is pregnant."

It is indeed possible to diagnose pregnancy after one month. But even experienced traditional Chinese medicine doctors have a diagnostic accuracy of only 90%; blood tests are ultimately needed for further confirmation.

Modern medicine often relies on more than just pulse diagnosis.

In modern Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospitals, diagnosing pregnancy is mostly not done by examining the pulse but through tests.

The development of modern medicine has always accompanied the development of modern natural sciences, thus it doesn’t specifically refer to Western medicine.

Ancient Western medicine was initially much more primitive and backward compared to Chinese medicine.

For example, during the same period in Great Tang and Outer Domain, Great Tang already had many mature Chinese medicine works and renowned doctors like Zhang Zhongjing and Sun Simiao; whereas ancient Western medicine was still in the butcher phase, with practitioners doubling as butchers.

Back to the point, although in modern Chinese medicine "cut" procedures, most people choose to rely primarily on modern medical equipment for examination, Liang’s family retains the ability of traditional pulse diagnosis and is known for having the "best pulse diagnosis in the world."

Lin Wanwan’s two senior brothers each took turns cutting Pan Xiaolei’s pulse, affirming Lin Wanwan’s diagnosis; Xiaolei is indeed pregnant.

Liang Jingtian’s wife was watching on the side and didn’t quite believe it. Honestly, even though her father-in-law is a big figure in Huaxia’s traditional Chinese medicine field, she personally trusts modern medical examinations more over traditional Chinese medicine pulse diagnosis.

In her concept, traditional Chinese medicine is mainly for treating chronic diseases and wellness, which is also the common understanding among most ordinary people.

Now with three Chinese medicine doctors at the scene confirming Pan Xiaolei’s pregnancy, Pan Xiaolei fully believed it.

Although Liang Jingtian still suggested that Pan Xiaolei could go to the hospital for a blood test, it didn’t dampen Pan Xiaolei’s good mood.

Kang Hongjing, who woke up from a drunken nap and heard the news, remained indifferent and showed no excitement at all.

It was unclear how the two communicated, but the outcome was Pan Xiaolei tearfully requested to return to the room for rest, without eating or playing.

Lin Wanwan glanced at Kang Hongjing and speculated, "Could it be that Brother Kang doesn’t want to get married?"

Lu Shouyue laughed, "Pregnancy and marriage aren’t necessarily linked; Brother Kang just doesn’t want this child."

Lin Wanwan opened her mouth to say something but eventually held back; after all, it’s private matters and none of her business.

The sulking Pan Xiaolei eventually came out to join the afternoon tea party, with Kang Hongjing still controlling all the topics. His girlfriend’s unexpected pregnancy didn’t affect him much.

Those who have a plan aren’t bothered by unexpected events because they confidently believe everything is under control.

While laughing and chatting, suddenly commotion broke out ahead, with many people excitedly running past, obviously going to join in the fun.

Lin Wanwan curiously looked in that direction and asked, "What’s happening?"

No need for her to guess; soon a passerby familiar with them revealed the answer.

"It’s Lu Xingjian, Lu Baba from Times is here; let’s join in the fun too!"

"He brought a lot of people, seems like he’s here to inspect a project."

Voices of discussion buzzed in the crowd.

Lu Xingjian also had two bodyguards accompanying him, but with many subordinates and onlookers taking pictures, the entourage seemed grand, like the stars surrounding the moon.

Even traffic flow celebrities couldn’t stir such curiosity in this wealthy resort like a business tycoon does.

Though everyone present belonged to the medical system, they were all intrigued, with Kang Hongjing further standing up and saying, "Teacher, I’ll go say hello; Mr. Lu has visited my channel before."

For Chinese medicine practitioners, the number of wealthy health care clients is also an important income indicator.

"Let’s all go take a look."

"Yeah, not much to do anyway." Except for the elderly couple Liang, everyone at the table seemed eager.

Lin Wanwan and Lu Shouyue exchanged a glance, she cheekily asked, "Everyone’s going to see our richest Baba, are you going?"

Lu Shouyue raised a hand and gently pressed down on Lin Wanwan’s hair, retorting, "It’s not me going; we’re going together."

Upon hearing this, Lin Wanwan’s expression immediately changed, shaking her head like a rattle drum: "No no no, I’m not going."

What a joke, meeting the parents after dating only for a week; that’s super fast!

Although she had met them last year, even sharing a meal, last year’s status was different, naturally making her feel different.

Lu Shouyue saw Lin Wanwan’s resistance but didn’t insist, smiling, "Alright, if Wanwan doesn’t want to go meet them, then we’ll just pretend we don’t know."

Lin Wanwan noticed Lu Shouyue’s smile with suspicion and asked, "Mr. Lu, did you know your dad was coming early and deliberately?"

Lu Shouyue immediately protested, "Wanwan, this gathering was arranged by your senior brothers. Besides, if it were my plan, it wouldn’t be under these circumstances."

Lin Wanwan thought it over and agreed, there’s no way to meet the parents like this.

"Hey, Wanwan, aren’t you guys going to watch the excitement? Lu Xingjian huh! Huaxia’s number one handsome tycoon huh! Not gonna see the real person?" Having just diagnosed pregnant, Pan Xiaolei had already put down the cup, ready to join the crowd.

Lin Wanwan shook her head and smiled, trying to remain casual, "Forget it, nothing interesting to see; I don’t chase stars." 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Lu Shouyue listened beside her, a faint smile playing on his lips.

"Alright then, what about Mr. Lu? Are you going?" Pan Xiaolei asked Lu Shouyue.

Lu Shouyue also shook his head, smiling, "I’m staying with Wanwan."

"Okay, suit yourselves." With that, Pan Xiaolei ran off.

The people by the long table drinking tea all went to join the bustling crowd, and the elderly couple Liang looked at Lin Wanwan and Lu Shouyue, the calm and collected couple, feeling somewhat peculiar.

"Wanwan, all the senior brothers went to see the excitement, yet you can stay calm." The elder Liang praised Lin Wanwan.

"Haha, yeah, teacher, I don’t like joining the crowd." Lin Wanwan was embarrassed; she wasn’t staying calm, had it been unrelated Jack Ma coming today, she’d also join and snap some photos, join the fun.

Shortly after, Kang Hongjing and others finished greeting or watching the excitement and returned, the tea party’s topic quickly shifted from Chinese medicine to billionaire gossip.

As they talked, the topic veered to the mysterious only son of Lu Xingjian. Lin Wanwan exchanged a quick glance with Lu Shouyue, both feeling amused.
