Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 1500: Chapter 1499: The Overly Worried Chu Yunxiu

Early the next morning, at five o’clock, Qiao Bing finally fell into a deep sleep.

She had the rare opportunity to rest during the day because she had to work the night shift that evening.

Lin Dong didn’t disturb her and got up by himself a little after seven to make breakfast.

While he was having breakfast, a shouting voice came from outside:

”Open the door, Little Bing, open the door for me.”

Hearing this voice, Lin Dong instantly recognized who it was—it was none other than Qiao Bing’s mother, Chu Yunxiu.

He had no idea why she was visiting the courtyard houses so early in the morning.

Since Qiao Bing was still sleeping, Lin Dong went to open the door for Chu Yunxiu.

Creak~~ The main gate of the courtyard houses opened, and Lin Dong saw Chu Yunxiu arriving.

Seeing her, Lin Dong asked, ”Aunt Chu, Sister Bing is still sleeping. She went to bed quite late last night, so please keep your voice down and don’t wake her.”

Chu Yunxiu, with her hands on her hips, snorted coldly, ”Went to bed late? Lin Dong, can’t you stop tormenting her like this?”

Lin Dong, feeling awkward, cleared his throat and said, ”Aunty, is it possible that it was Sister Bing who took the initiative?”

”You...” Chu Yunxiu pointed at Lin Dong, with anger rising uncontrollably.

However, this time she had come to see Lin Dong and Qiao Bing for an important matter, so she didn’t want to dwell on that issue.

She just warned, ”Fine, I won’t bother with you two. But I have one demand: you guys can only have children after you are truly married!”

”And as for your wedding, you’re going to wait until after Xiaoxue and Tian Ce?”

Saying this, she didn’t care whether Lin Dong listened to her or not and continued, ”I won’t bother talking to you about this matter any longer.”

”I came to see you early this morning because there are two important things.”

”Oh? What are they?” Lin Dong asked, not dwelling on the matter of having children since discussing such things with his prospective mother-in-law was quite awkward.

Chu Yunxiu said, with a heavy tone, ”The first issue pertains to Tian Ce’s evening banquet yesterday.”

”Lin Dong, how dare you make Tian Ce kowtow and apologize to you?”

Lin Dong laughingly said, ”Aunt Chu, that Lin Tiance is far too polite; he insisted on kowtowing and giving me New Year’s greetings. What could I do?”

”How could that be my fault?”

”You’re full of it!” Chu Yunxiu yelled loudly. ”Tian Ce told me himself, the only reason he kowtowed and apologized was to ask you to treat his grandma’s illness.”

”You refused unless he kowtowed. He did that because he is filial.”

”But how could you exploit his filial piety to make him kowtow? Do you realize who he is—the Young Master of Lin Family? No matter the reason, him kowtowing to you would damage both the Lin family’s reputation and his own dignity.”

”What you did was utterly disgusting!”

Hearing this, Lin Dong actually admired Lin Tiance for the excuse he had come up with.

He had found such an excuse to explain why he had kowtowed.

Lin Dong shook his head and said, ”Aunt Chu, is there a possibility that Lin Tiance kowtowed for a reason other than that?”

”Hah, if it’s not for that, then what other reason would Tian Ce have to kowtow to you?” Chu Yunxiu scoffed, unable to think of any other reason.

”Maybe because he’s scared of me?” Lin Dong suggested, shrugging his shoulders.

”Nonsense, why would Tian Ce be scared of you? Lin Dong, oh Lin Dong, now you’re Dragon Country’s Number One Oriental Medicine Doctor, yes, your medical arts are good, and many people seek your treatment. But acting so arrogantly because of your skill, thinking you’re above everyone else, have you ever considered the consequences of your actions?”

”Do you realize that your behavior could completely offend Tian Ce?” Chu Yunxiu said loudly.

”If I offend him, so be it,” Lin Dong retorted, his lips curling. He wasn’t afraid of offending Lin Tiance.

Chu Yunxiu expressed her disappointment, ”Lin Dong, I thought Qiao Bing marrying you was okay, and I even thought highly of you. Turns out you are the same as before, hopeless and unable to stand on your own.”

”How can I rest assured entrusting Qiao Bing to you?”

”That’s Lin Tiance from the Lin Family in the Capital City, you know. If you can curry favor with him because of Xiaoxue, you won’t have to worry about the second half of your life. If he casually gives you some resources, you could start a big company,”

”With your medical arts, you could definitely rely on him to start a medical company. Who knows, in a few years, you might even go public.”

”A man can only take care of his family well if he has his own career. That’s how you make sure your descendants have an increasingly better life.”

”Otherwise, even if you are the number one traditional Chinese medicine doctor in Dragon Country, you’ll end up just as destitute...”

Chu Yunxiu ’educated’ Lin Dong, maybe because Lin Dong and Qiao Bing had already turned rice into cooked rice, and Qiao Bing was determined to follow Lin Dong, she knew it was useless to disagree with Lin Dong.

So now, she still acknowledged Lin Dong as her future son-in-law. It was just that she still couldn’t stand Lin Dong and wanted him to establish a career.

Listening to Chu Yunxiu’s ’education,’ Lin Dong said in a deep voice, ”If I were to start a medical company, I wouldn’t need Lin Tiance’s help.”

”A pharmaceutical company with trillion-yuan profits, I could create that effortlessly.”

Chu Yunxiu: ”...”

”You’re really hopeless,” Chu Yunxiu said with rolling eyes, ”a pharmaceutical company with trillion-yuan profits, you probably create that in your dreams?”

”Hurry up, go to the Lin family with me now. First, apologize to Tian Ce, then treat Tian Ce’s grandma’s illness. Make up for the relationship between you two!” Chu Yunxiu said as she reached out to pull Lin Dong along.

Lin Dong was speechless; the Old Patriarch of the Lin Family didn’t have a damn sickness.

That old vixen’s body was incredibly robust. With her strength, unless a formidable enemy came along to kill her, she could easily live a few hundred more years, outliving you, Chu Yunxiu.

She didn’t need Lin Dong to treat her.

Moreover, even if she really was sick, Lin Dong wouldn’t care to treat her.

He pulled his hand away from Chu Yunxiu and asked, ”Aunt Chu, does Lin Tiance know you’re here to get me to treat the Old Patriarch of the Lin Family’s illness?”

”Maybe he won’t agree.”

”How could he not agree? Would he have knelt down to you last night if he didn’t?” Chu Yunxiu responded with a cold snort.

”Why don’t you make a call and ask him? Don’t do something you think is kind but turn out to be bad,” Lin Dong said apathetically.

Chu Yunxiu felt that made sense; it was still best to make a call to ask.

With that thought, she took out her phone and made a call to Lin Tiance.

As soon as the call connected, she mentioned the matter.

Lin Tiance hurriedly said, ”Aunt, don’t worry about this. I’ve already hired a more formidable Divine Doctor from around the world to treat my grandma, and her illness has already been cured.”

”We don’t need Lin Dong anymore.”

Hearing this, Chu Yunxiu said, ”I see, well okay then. About last night, Tian Ce, don’t hold a grudge against Lin Dong...”

”Rest assured, Aunt, I don’t blame him,” Lin Tiance responded, containing his rage.

”That’s good, Tian Ce, there’s another thing. Lin Dong and Qiao Bing are both doctors, right? What I mean is, since we’ll all be relatives, why don’t you give them a little help with resources to start their medical company in the future?” Aunt Chu suggested.

Who would have thought, she was actually considering Lin Dong’s best interests now.

Lin Tiance, on the other end of the phone, had a twitch at the corner of his mouth and responded stiffly, ”Okay, we’ll talk about the opportunity later. Aunt, I’m busy right now. I’m going to hang up.”

And with that, he hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Chu Yunxiu turned to Lin Dong and huffed, ”It’s a good thing Tian Ce is generous and doesn’t hold it against you. Otherwise, you’d really be finished.”

”If it weren’t for my daughter’s sake, I wouldn’t plead your case to save my life.”

Lin Dong was speechless and couldn’t be bothered to say more.

”Aunt, is there anything else? If not, I need to get going.”

Lin Dong was about to leave, heading to the War Department.

However, at the moment, he was stopped by Chu Yunxiu.

”Don’t be in such a hurry to leave, there’s one more thing I need to talk to you about.”
