Chapter 294: This is What You Call Healing
“Aaaah—”
“No, don’t touch me! Get away from me!”
“Gross!”
Shen Qianqian struggled, but against the three big men, her efforts were utterly futile…

Night Garden.
It had been an hour and a half since Lin Xuan called Su Hua. He excitedly emerged from his space.
There had been significant progress in treating Hua Bao’s illness!
Lin Xuan decided to personally cook for Su Hua.
He walked into the kitchen and asked, “What dishes do we have today?”
The servant answered Lin Xuan one by one.
Lin Xuan frowned, “Why are all the preparations just what I like to eat?”
The servant smiled and said, “Miss said whatever Brother Lin likes to eat, she likes too. So, we prepared food that both of you enjoy.”
“Not good. I need to buy some ingredients separately.” Lin Xuan muttered.
Hua Bao seemed to be in a bad mood today; he needed to cheer her up a bit.
“Brother Lin, are you going to cook yourself?” Butler Wang came over and asked.
“Yes.” Lin Xuan nodded.
“Brother Lin, if there’s anything missing, I’ll send someone to buy it. Just tell me what you need.”
“No need, I’ll go myself.”
Just right for him to clear his mind.
He originally wanted to continue studying that medicine, but his brain froze. No matter how hard he thought, nothing came to mind, so he could only set that medicine aside for now.
Lin Xuan drove to a large supermarket.
He had just gotten out of the car when he saw an old man lying on the ground, pale-faced, looking extremely painful.
Scattered snacks lay around his hand.
Lin Xuan: “…”
Isn’t this a common plot device in novels?
An old man faints, the male lead appears and saves him, the old man feels deeply grateful. It turns out the old man has an impressive identity, and at the right moment, the male lead can use the old man to show off.
He had just learned some medical skills, and such an old man was arranged for him. Was it a coincidence or…
Well, this is the real world, not a novel. It should just be a coincidence.
Lin Xuan had lived through a lifetime and had become cold-hearted.
He didn’t want to bother with unimportant people and things.
And the medical arts of another world, he had only just started learning. He wasn’t sure if he could save this old man, and he didn’t want to get himself into trouble.
Lin Xuan was about to enter the supermarket to continue buying groceries to go home and cook.
He had taken a step forward when his foot stopped again.
Wait.
Lin Xuan looked at the old man.
He seemed to have seen this old man somewhere before.
Lin Xuan tried hard to remember, and the face of an old man lying in a coffin appeared in his mind.
Jiang Liangjun.
His status was high, with political background, and his two granddaughters, one involved in politics, the other running a company.
Their identities were pretty powerful.
If they could become their saviors, it wouldn’t be a bad thing.
After thinking clearly, Lin Xuan squeezed through the crowd and began to feel the old man’s pulse.
His furrowed brows gradually relaxed.
Although the pulse was weak, if treated promptly, there would be no serious harm to the body.
“Who are you? Are you a doctor?” A woman asked.
Lin Xuan remained silent, preparing to give the old man simple treatment.
At this moment, Lin Qingxiu squeezed through the crowd.
“Lin Xuan,
what are you doing?” Lin Qingxiu frowned.
Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow, “Are you blind? Don’t you see I’m treating this old man?”
“Treatment?” Lin Qingxiu sneered, “You’re a computer science student. What do you know about medicine? It’s laughable!”
The surrounding people frowned.
“I thought he was a doctor, but it turns out he’s just a student, majoring in computer science. This woman is right. He probably doesn’t know any medicine.”
“These kids nowadays don’t take human lives seriously. They dare to treat patients without knowing any medicine. Isn’t this asking for trouble?”
Everyone pointed fingers at Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan knew that if he insisted on treating the old man, these people would stop him. So, he stopped what he was doing and stood up.
“Lin Xuan, you’ve been my brother for a few years. Let me remind you, not everyone can be saved. One mistake could cost someone’s life,” Lin Qingxiu crossed her arms.
Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow, “He’s in critical condition now. If not treated quickly, it might be beyond saving. You say I don’t know how to treat him, can you?”
“Of course,” Lin Qingxiu sneered, “I am a doctor. Even if I can’t completely cure him, I’m better than you who don’t even know medicine.”
Lin Xuan snorted.
Seriously, Lin Qingxiu couldn’t cure this person.
But since she wants to show off, as her younger brother, he should definitely let her have her way.
“Alright then, if you’re so capable, you go ahead and treat him,” Lin Xuan stepped aside, giving Lin Qingxiu space.
Lin Qingxiu confidently squatted down. She had already observed the old man’s condition.
It should be the disease she thought it was.
She happened to have some tools with her today, surely enough to save his life.
This Lin Xuan letting her treat the old man must be trying to make her look foolish to get back at her.
Tch.
As if she’d let Lin Xuan succeed.
Lin Qingxiu checked the old man’s pulse and lifted his eyelids for inspection.
She couldn’t help but nod repeatedly.
Indeed, it was the disease she thought it was. That makes it easy to handle.
Lin Qingxiu started treating the old man.
There were many onlookers.
They held their breath watching Lin Qingxiu.
Not sure if she could save him.
Meanwhile, Lin Xuan stood with his arms crossed, watching Lin Qingxiu with amusement.
Five minutes later, Lin Qingxiu stopped her actions.
“Alright, now we just wait for the ambulance.”
“Look fast!”
Someone pointed at the old man, excitedly saying, “His fingers are moving, and his complexion has turned rosier. Looks like he’s going to be fine.”
“Amazing, doctors truly are talented and kind-hearted.”
Lin Qingxiu floated on clouds from the compliments, standing up proudly.
“Lin Xuan, did you see that? This is what you call healing. Don’t try if you don’t have the skills, or you’ll just get yourself into trouble,” Lin Qingxiu coldly educated Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow, “Are you sure you cured him?”
“What else?” Lin Qingxiu sneered.
Seeing the disdain in Lin Xuan’s eyes, Lin Qingxiu felt anger rising inside her.
What does Lin Xuan mean?
What is he, daring to look at her like that?
Mom was right. Lin Xuan is ungrateful. If she hadn’t stopped Lin Xuan from treating the old man earlier, and something went wrong, Lin Xuan would have been blamed for murder.
She helped him, yet he not only doesn’t show gratitude but also looks at her with mockery.
If she knew this beforehand, she wouldn’t have stopped Lin Xuan from treating the old man.
