Chapter 186 Returning Home to Encounter an Ambush (Part 1)

Dr. Lu Hanqing is a very skilled doctor.

From the moment he sat down, Ye Shaohong didn't say a word. Lu Hanqing accurately confirmed Ye Shaohong's physical condition simply by feeling his pulse.

He then examined Ye Shaohong's tongue and briefly inquired about his diet, and Lu Hanqing already had a clear understanding of the situation.

He held his pen and pondered for a moment, then wrote out the final prescription without hesitation.

After writing the prescription, Lu Hanqing carefully checked it again. Once he was sure it was correct, he tore it off, stuck it on the table, and handed it to Ye Shaohong.

"First, get three doses of the medicine according to the prescription. After you get home, boil them twice in a clay pot and take them three times a day after meals." "After you finish the three doses, stop taking the medicine for one day in between to check its effectiveness."

"Come over again on the fourth day when you have some free time. I will then adjust the prescription according to your physical condition. You should be fully recovered in about ten days."

During the diagnosis and treatment process, Ye Shaohong kept thinking about how to ask Lu Hanqing about "Lion" Yu Shunnian.

But he never found an opportunity.

Now that he saw Lu Hanqing finish his treatment simply and directly, Ye Shaohong became a little anxious.

Having finally found an opportunity to contact Lu Hanqing, he didn't want to miss it easily.

So after a brief moment of thought, Ye Shaohong's eyes flashed, and he immediately had a new idea. After getting up, he didn't rush to say goodbye and leave, but instead looked at Yu Manli.

“Manli, I think Dr. Lu’s medical skills are quite good. Why don’t you let him help you with your diagnosis and treatment?”

As he said this, Ye Shaohong winked at Yu Manli. Yu Manli and Ye Shaohong had been in contact for a long time and had developed some tacit understanding. Although she did not know what Ye Shaohong wanted to do, out of trust in him, Yu Manli still chose to support him unconditionally.

She smiled and sat down in front of Lu Hanqing.

"Dr. Lu, could you take a look at me too?"

Lu Hanqing clearly hadn't expected Ye Shaohong and Yu Manli to do something like this, which unwittingly disrupted his rhythm.

This also caused him to miss the opportunity to talk to Ye Shaohong.

He was a doctor, so he had no choice but to smile and nod in agreement, once again focusing intently on diagnosing Yu Manli's pulse.

Seeing this, Ye Shaohong smiled.

He began to hide in the shadows, carefully observing Lu Hanqing, watching the changes in his eyebrows and eyes, and noticing his subtle movements. Finally, Ye Shaohong confirmed one thing.

Lu Hanqing was in good spirits today and seemed very relaxed, showing no signs of worry or anxiety.

While this is far from resolving Ye Shaohong's doubts, it is enough.

Through Lu Hanqing, Ye Shaohong was able to confirm that he had not received any bad news recently.

If there's no bad news, then it's good news.

"Hopefully, 'Lion' Yu Shunnian can escape this calamity."

While pondering this, Ye Shaohong started chatting with Lu Hanqing again. This time, Ye Shaohong took the initiative and asked Lu Hanqing about his hometown, how many years he had studied medicine, where he had opened pharmacies, and so on.

These were all seemingly ordinary little things, but when they fell into the ears of Lu Hanqing, who knew Ye Shaohong somewhat, they still made him quietly tense up.

When answering questions, he did not hide anything, but he was extremely careful and cautious.

They would absolutely not utter a single unnecessary word or reveal any extra information.

As a result, the diagnosis and treatment of Yu Manli was even slower. It took Lu Hanqing five or six minutes before he was able to write a prescription for Yu Manli.

This prescription focuses on conditioning the body.

According to Lu Hanqing, Yu Manli's health was not bad, except that she was a little weak in qi and blood, but these were common problems for young women, so there was no need to worry too much.

After the treatment was completed, Ye Shaohong thanked Lu Hanqing in person and mentioned Zheng Yaoxian in passing.

After being subtly questioned by Ye Shaohong, Lu Hanqing dared not say anything more and could only deal with it carefully.

He didn't say much about Zheng Yaoxian's matter.

He was indeed a seasoned veteran. Afterwards, Lu Hanqing personally escorted Ye Shaohong and the others out of the inner hall and instructed the servants in front of the hall to prepare medicine for Ye Shaohong.

Lu Hanqing oversaw the entire medication preparation process, demonstrating his exceptional professionalism.

Just then, Zhao Jianzhi, who had been wandering around the outer hall, came over. Instead of greeting Ye Shaohong and Yu Manli, he mysteriously approached Lu Hanqing.

Then, lowering his voice, he whispered something in Lu Hanqing's ear.

It was clear that when Zhao Jianzhi whispered in his ear, Lu Hanqing's lips twitched, as if he was trying his best to endure it.

After a moment, Lu Hanqing nodded solemnly.

He didn't speak or write a prescription, but instead went into the dispensing room and started mixing the medicine with a small scale.

This scene left Ye Shaohong speechless. "Brother Jianzhi, what's going on?"

"Cough cough!"

Zhao Jianzhi lowered his head and coughed for a while, then secretly glanced around before opening his mouth to respond.

“I’ve been feeling a bit tired lately. I’ve noticed that you and Section Chief Zheng are getting medicine from Dr. Lu, so I figured his medical skills must be pretty good. I’ll have him prepare a few prescriptions for me.”

As he spoke these words, Zhao Jianzhi looked around, and dared not meet Ye Shaohong's gaze.

In an instant, Ye Shaohong realized that Zhao Jianzhi was lying.

What kind of physical fatigue.

And that furtive, secretive manner.

Ye Shaohong didn't need to think or guess to know that Zhao Jianzhi probably had a hidden illness.

Hmm... a man's hidden ailment. That's why Zhao Jianzhi didn't go into the inner hall with him, Yu Manli, and Zhuang Yifan earlier, for fear that Lu Hanqing would reveal his health problems in front of everyone during the treatment.

Having guessed the truth, Ye Shaohong couldn't help but speak out.

He almost burst out laughing several times.

Zhao Jianzhi might be a bit oblivious in other matters, but when it comes to a man's dignity, he's very sensitive.

Seeing Ye Shaohong's forced smile, Zhao Jianzhi immediately turned and glared at him fiercely.

"Laugh, what's so funny!"

"When you get married and start paying your dues every day, you'll understand my current situation."

"You'll be crying then."

Seeing this forced attempt to save face, Ye Shaohong could no longer restrain himself. His gaze shifted downwards, intending to fall between Zhao Jianzhi's legs. But Zhao Jianzhi pushed him away again.

Amidst the banter and laughter, Ye Shaohong and the other two finished preparing their Chinese medicine, which they then packed and sealed in thick hemp paper. Ye Shaohong bid farewell to Lu Hanqing and arranged a time to meet again before the group of six left Huichuntang Pharmacy.

As they slowly made their way through the streets, intending to grab a quick bite tonight, Ye Shaohong suddenly noticed several suspicious-looking people behind him just as they were about to cross an arched bridge.

These people were dressed simply, in close-fitting short-sleeved outfits, and their eyes would frequently fall on him as they walked.

Upon noticing these unusual signs, Ye Shaohong immediately tensed up.
