Chapter 74: Putting on a Brave Face Despite the Swollen Cheek

Just as they were about to enter, another BMW drove up and stopped at the entrance. A middle-aged man in his forties got out of the car.

Upon seeing this man, Li Qing's face lit up, and he said to Liu Mei, "Madam, this is my cousin Li Qihui, whom I mentioned to you before."

Liu Mei's face brightened at this, and she hurriedly went to greet him.

Leng Hanyan was slightly taken aback upon seeing this man.

Lin Chen asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Do you know this person?"

Leng Hanyan nodded and said, "Yes, I do. It seems that Qin Wenhai's condition is likely a male reproductive issue. This man is Li Qihui. When I was studying in the U.S., we met at an exchange conference. He is a medical doctor from Yale University's School of Medicine, specializing in male reproductive diseases. He has won many medical awards and is very capable. Yale University's School of Medicine wanted to keep him as a doctoral supervisor, but he declined. After returning to China, he received offers from several top-tier hospitals. This person is quite capable, but he is also very arrogant and cannot tolerate anyone contradicting his views. At that exchange conference, I merely presented some differing opinions, and he has held a grudge ever since."

As Leng Hanyan was speaking, Li Qihui, who had just shaken hands with Liu Mei, saw her and frowned, then coldly snorted, "What, Doctor Leng, you're here to treat Mr. Qin too?"

Leng Hanyan replied coolly, "What I'm doing here has nothing to do with you, Doctor Li."

Li Qing and Liu Mei were both taken aback by this situation, realizing that Li Qihui and this blonde beauty seemed to have some conflict.

Li Qing said with a teasing smile, "Cousin, so you know this beauty, and she's even a doctor. But it's not this beauty who's here to treat my master; it's the young man beside her! Isn't it funny? A young man with barely any facial hair claims he can treat with traditional Chinese medicine!"

"Oh? Traditional Chinese medicine?"

Li Qihui was also taken aback. He had thought it was Leng Hanyan who was here to treat. Although he had some conflicts with Leng Hanyan, he still acknowledged her capabilities, as Harvard Medical School and Yale Medical School are of the same caliber, and both are medical doctors.

But it turned out that it was the young man beside her who was here to treat, and with that nonsensical traditional Chinese medicine!

Li Qihui sneered inwardly, a sinister smile curling at the corner of his mouth. He said, "Although it's a bit strange, since Doctor Leng brought him here, this young man must have some skills. Otherwise, wouldn't Doctor Leng be playing a joke on us? Let's go in and see Mr. Qin together."

His words clearly implied that if this young man had no skills, it would be Leng Hanyan's fault for bringing someone unqualified.

He didn't believe in traditional Chinese medicine and didn't think this young man had any skills. Inviting them in was just to see them make fools of themselves.

Li Qing immediately understood his cousin's intention and said with a forced smile, "Cousin, you're right. Since we're here, let's go in and see. I hope some people aren't just here to cause trouble for the ten million, or they'll only embarrass themselves!"

Leng Hanyan's eyebrows furrowed in anger, but Lin Chen shook his head at her and said with a smile, "It's fine. Some people like to put on a show, and I love to expose their true colors. We'll see if they have any skills in a moment. There's no need to argue with a watchdog."

Lin Chen's voice was not loud, but everyone present heard it clearly. Li Qing was furious and said, "What did you say, you brat? You called me a watchdog?"

Li Qihui's face also turned ugly, and he coldly snorted, "Overestimating yourself, low-quality!"

"Alright, everyone, stop arguing and come inside. Wenhai is in his study. You can wait in the living room, and I'll go call him out," Liu Mei said, trying to mediate the situation.

Lin Chen and the others followed Liu Mei to the living room. Then Liu Mei went to call Qin Wenhai, leaving Li Qing to entertain the three of them. Li Qing nodded and bowed, but once she left, he only served tea to Li Qihui and completely ignored Lin Chen and Leng Hanyan.

Lin Chen saw this and coldly smiled, thinking that he would find a chance to deal with this arrogant guy later.

Soon, Liu Mei and a refined-looking middle-aged man came out, with Liu Mei holding some documents.

This man was Qin Wenhai, a well-known business tycoon in Yuehai City.

"Mr. Qin," Li Qihui immediately stood up from the sofa upon seeing him. No matter how proud he was, he still showed some respect to a big figure like Qin Wenhai.

"Please, don't be so formal. Sit down. Thank you, Doctor Li, for coming all the way from the capital to treat me," Qin Wenhai said with a smile, appearing very approachable.

"Mr. Qin, you flatter me. It's my honor to treat you!" Li Qihui said with a flattering tone.

Seeing this, Lin Chen thought it was no wonder Li Qihui and Li Qing were cousins. When faced with someone they couldn't offend, they both acted like lapdogs, typical bullies who pick on the weak and fear the strong.

Liu Mei handed the documents to Li Qihui, "Doctor Li, this is Wenhai's medical report. Please take a look."

"Sure."

Li Qihui took the report and flipped through it for a while. His expression changed, and Qin Wenhai's heart sank as he asked, "Doctor Li, how is it? Can you treat this problem?"

Li Qihui smiled, "Yes, I can! However, it might take some time, and Mr. Qin will need to cooperate."

Hearing this, Qin Wenhai's face lit up with joy.

"Pfft!"

At this moment, a laugh came from the side.

Li Qing, seeing Lin Chen laugh, was furious and said, "Doctor Li is treating my master. What are you laughing at?"

Li Qihui was also angry and said, "Young man, I was going to ignore you for trying to deceive people with traditional Chinese medicine, but you lack even basic manners. Someone like you has no right to be in Mr. Qin's house!"

Qin Wenhai and Liu Mei were also displeased, thinking that Lin Chen was being impolite. Moreover, since Li Qihui had said he could treat Qin Wenhai's condition, they were now on his side, believing he had real skills. Their gazes towards Lin Chen already had a hint of wanting to kick him out.

Leng Hanyan also looked at Lin Chen in confusion, not understanding why he suddenly laughed.

Lin Chen smirked, "I laughed because Doctor Li is putting on a brave face despite the swollen cheek. I found it very amusing, so I laughed."

"Rubbish!" Li Qihui was furious, "Who are you calling a brave face despite the swollen cheek?"

"Of course, I'm talking about you. You clearly can't treat Mr. Qin's condition, yet you claim you can. Isn't that putting on a brave face despite the swollen cheek?" Lin Chen sneered.

Li Qihui's face changed slightly, "Nonsense. Mr. Qin's condition is due to low sperm activity caused by prostatitis. Once the prostatitis is treated, he can have children. How can I not treat it?"

Leng Hanyan was slightly taken aback. So Qin Wenhai's problem was infertility. No wonder he had no children at his age, and no wonder they were willing to pay a fortune for treatment. This wasn't just a ten million treatment; it was a ten million quest for a child!

"Your approach is simply to treat the prostatitis, then have Mr. Qin quit smoking and drinking, exercise more, and prescribe some vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc, and selenium. Am I right? Have you considered why Mr. Qin's prostatitis keeps recurring?" Lin Chen said with a mocking tone.
