I Became a Medical Genius in the 80s

Chapter 449: Chapter 448: Who Leaked It

”Unfortunately, our relationship with the Tian Family has always been rather ordinary, and now to abruptly visit to ask for an invitation seems somewhat inappropriate,” said Mei Zhiwei, the head of the Mei Family.

”Indeed, it’s inappropriate. It would be great if we knew someone from the Tian Family,” said the eldest, Mei Renhai, frowning.

They wouldn’t dare to even think about the Wei Family; although the Tian Family is a recruiting family, they’re purely a family of traditional medicine, which sometimes makes people look down on them, so the Mei Family has never made a point to befriend the Tian Family.

This time, who knows what kind of luck the Tian Family struck, the Wei Family actually wants to hold the apprenticeship ceremony at the Tian Family.

They never imagined that Wei Zhongxun’s prospective master would come from the Tian Family, how could that be!

Currently, it’s not just the Mei Family discussing this issue; other families or units aware of these matters are too discussing it.

The source of this news leak is unknown, but many people now know about it; it’s just unknown who exactly it is.

This day, Beisitian was at Wu Yuekai’s place.

Wu Yuekai specifically called Beisitian over; with so many rumors lately, he had to ask about her plans.

Beisitian had vaguely heard about it, just not expecting it to spread so quickly and widely.

”Could it have been the Wei Family who spread it?” Beisitian frowned.

Wu Yuekai shook his head, ”Probably not the Wei Family. Although I haven’t interacted much with Wei Yuanqing, he’s very shrewd. Since he chose to ally with you, he definitely wouldn’t do something as foolish as shooting himself in the foot.”

Beisitian also thought it unlikely. Although she only met Wei Yuanqing once, indeed, as the old man said, he is a clever person. Even without Wei Zhongxun, he could guess Beisitian’s general intentions.

At that time, besides the Wei Family, only the Left-wing Tao Hailin was there. Could it be him?

But if it were Tao Hailin, Beisitian felt it was also unrealistic. He had gone to great lengths to find her and then sought her out. Would he really do something so self-destructive?

Beisitian recalled the open and covert struggles between Tao Hailin and the Wei Family that day and thought if Tao Hailin was someone narrow-minded who couldn’t tolerate others, it wouldn’t be impossible for him to do such a thing!

”Are you thinking of Old Tao?” Wu Yuekai asked, seeing Beisitian’s expression.

Beisitian nodded, ”He doesn’t get along with the Wei Family. I’m thinking maybe because I took Wei Zhongxun as my student, he felt stifled and did such a thing.”

Who knew Wu Yuekai would shake his head, ”Old Tao isn’t narrow-minded. He’s incredibly proud, and even if he were to intervene, I don’t think he’d use such underhanded methods. The way Wei Yuanqing behaved that day undoubtedly provoked him. If he didn’t return and investigate thoroughly, he’d be unworthy of being the Left-wing’s head.”

Wu Yuekai took a sip of water and continued, ”The Wei Family wants to ally with you, and the Left-wing also does. Before knowing your capabilities, Old Tao was already here trying to find you. Now that he knows, if he did something like this, you’d surely never ally with him. He’s not stupid, he wouldn’t do it.”

Beisitian thought the same. Since the old man said he wasn’t someone intolerant, it shouldn’t be the Left-wing’s doing.

If it wasn’t the Left-wing or the Right-wing, then who could it be?

Wu Yuekai also found it strange. At that time, only the Wei Family and Tao Hailin and others were present. Beisitian mentioned that the people at the last table were far away. Light music was playing in the courtyard to set the atmosphere, with a large table separating them. Luo Xuhua and others couldn’t hear what was said over there.

Afterwards, Tian Qingyun also confirmed this; the sound at the main table was deliberately kept low, so they couldn’t hear what was said.

If it wasn’t the Wei Family or Tao Hailin, and the last table couldn’t hear the main table, then who could have spread this?

Wu Yuekai and Beisitian suddenly looked at each other, could it be the Tian Family?

Beisitian didn’t want to admit to this conclusion, but besides the Tian Family, no one else seemed likely.

But the Tian Family had no motive, it would be self-destructive!

”It might not necessarily be someone from the main Tian Family,” Wu Yuekai suggested.

Beisitian nodded, furrowing her brows. She needed to tell her grandfather about this. She decided to leave.

Wu Yuekai knew she had things to do and didn’t insist she stay for a meal and advised, ”Beijing isn’t very peaceful lately, with a lot of suspicious people coming in recently, so be cautious.”

Beisitian agreed and left through the red-painted gate.

She had just left when Tao Hailin arrived.

Tao Hailin, with a changed attitude from his usual arrogance, said to Wu Yuekai, ”Brother Wu, I’ve met that person.”

Wu Yuekai smiled, ”That’s good.”

Tao Hailin showed some concern in his expression, ”Not good at all, Brother Wu. Even though I’ve been your primary physician for so long, I didn’t even agree when generals asked, yet you didn’t inform me.

Tao Hailin unexpectedly started to complain.

Wu Yuekai burst into laughter, ”Haven’t you met now?”

Tao Hailin was quite dissatisfied with Wu Yuekai’s attitude, huffed, ”Brother Wu, you’ve hidden this from me truly well.”

Remembering how he almost asked to take Beisitian, a Mystic Doctor who could form a Spiritual Talisman, as his apprentice made his old face blush. He never felt so grateful for someone interrupting him, or his face would have been thoroughly embarrassed!

Wu Yuekai took a sip of tea and said, ”Old Tao has indeed been very responsible towards me, but since she intended it to be this way initially, I didn’t want to go against her wishes. Now that Old Tao, you know, I shouldn’t hide it anymore. Ask away, and I’ll tell you everything I know.”

Tao Hailin, seeing Wu Yuekai being so forthright, responded with a somewhat relieved expression, ”Brother Wu, I won’t hide it from you. Do you know why she allied with the Wei Family?”

This was an improper question, but Tao Hailin knew that if he didn’t seize this opportunity to ask, the chance would be even slimmer in the future.

Wu Yuekai, aware that Tao Hailin was anxious, found it amusing internally but remained composed, saying, ”It’s not my place to ask directly in such matters, but from her intentions, she seems to be gathering people.”

Wu Yuekai made a point.

Tao Hailin was startled, gathering people! Indeed, she cured Wu Yuekai and Zhou Biwu, proving her abilities without question. The only thing she could utilize from the Wei Family was manpower!

Seeing it like this, she must have realized the existence of those people, and she was preparing!

Tao Hailin pondered silently. If that’s the case, the Left-wing, with its extensive connections and resource richness, might be able to form an alliance with Beisitian.

After a while, Tao Hailin said, ”Brother Wu, please do me a favor. I would be eternally grateful if you could arrange a private meeting with that person?”

Wu Yuekai smiled inwardly, understanding that Tao Hailin realized this. Although the Left-wing and Right-wing are at odds, if there’s a Beisitian in the middle, perhaps they might unite. Of course, that’s for the future. As for now, Beisitian needs to quickly strengthen her manpower.
