“Stretch out your hand first. I’ll take your pulse.” Guan Tong pulled Lu Han’s hand. Her eyes lit up when she saw Lu Han. Could it be possible that he’ll let her heal his injury?

Lu Han was annoyed. He was distracted by Guan Tong’s bright eyes, and suddenly he was under Guan Tong’s persuasion, and she succeeded. Guan Tong ignored Lu Han’s reaction. She gained her medical skills from an older man that was her grandmother’s neighbor when she was young. Guan Tong remembered that his house was filled with medical books. Back then, she had nothing to do after school, so she would stay at his home as she enjoyed the older man’s humor and learned his medical knowledge along the way.

“Hmm…” Guan Tong frowned. “It’s not a complicated disease. It’s just that the doctor who treated you previously misdiagnosed your conditions.” Guan Tong’s expression was severe. Human life is no joking matter, and a wrong diagnosis could result in fatality.

“How old are you? How could you know anything?” Lu Han laughed when he heard that and withdrew his hand to mock Guan Tong’s comment.

Guan Tong pouted when she heard that. She knew that she was young, but many doctors didn’t have her kind of knowledge.

“You don’t have to believe me, but the doctor who treated you was a quack. If you continue taking his prescription, you’ll die.” Guan Tong quickly followed Lu Han. She thought that the previous doctor’s mind was probably somewhere else when he diagnosed him. She wanted a chance to heal him.

“How about we try this? Why don’t you find that doctor and have him come to me instead?” Guan Tong was also angry. She did not understand why her good intention was being shunned and dismissed by Lu Han as she only wanted to help him. Lu Han saw the determination in Guan Tong’s eyes. Since she wanted to make a mistake that much, he obliged.

“What if you’re wrong?” Lu Han asked.

“I’m at your disposal! Do whatever you want to me.” Guan Tong wholeheartedly believed in her diagnosis of Lu Han’s injury.

“Okay then, Uncle Tang!” Lu Han looked at Guan Tong and shouted to his butler.

“Yes, Young Master.” Uncle Tang came in and felt the tense atmosphere. He was confused about the situation as everything seemed just fine this morning.

“Go and find Doctor Han.” Lu Han ordered.

“Young Master, is something wrong with your health?” Uncle Tang’s eyes were filled with worry when he heard this. 

“No, it was Madam who insisted on asking Doctor Han some questions.” Lu Han further explained.

“Yes, right away, Young Master.” Uncle Tang looked at Guan Tong in confusion, but it was inappropriate for him to push the matter further as a servant. 

“You’d better keep your promise.” Lu Han reminded Guan Tong.

“Then what if I’m right?” Guan Tong felt that she had become bolder as she dared to negotiate with the Young Master Lu.

“You can ask anything of me, and I’ll agree to it.” Lu Han simply did not think that Guan Tong would have guessed right.

Guan Tong put her hands on her hips, feeling exasperated. She wanted to show this man what she was capable of.

Not long after, Uncle Tang brought in a white-bearded old man. This old man looked fair and chubby, but he did not look like a sixty-year-old man at all.

“Young Master and Madam, Doctor Han is here.” Uncle Tang quietly brought him in.

“Young Master, is there any problem regarding your wellbeing?” Doctor Han asked with concern. He was Lu Han’s doctor, and his fears for Lu Han’s health came naturally.

“I feel the same.” Lu Han leaned on the bed and glanced at Guan Tong. 

“Doctor Han, I have a few questions I’d like to ask you.” Guan Tong cleared her throat and asked the doctor.

“Madam, please go ahead.” Doctor Han knew that his master’s fifth wife was currently safe and sound in the family home, and this must be her.

“Did you prescribe Lu Han with the Scorpion Poison?” Guan Tong asked frankly. Doctor Han and Uncle Tang looked strange when they heard Guan Tong call Lu Han by his name. 

However, when they saw that Lu Han did not flare up, they knew the woman’s current status. Lu Han did not overthink it. He felt that he did not hate it when Guan Tong called him by his name. So, he did not make a scene.

“Yes, Madam. The Scorpion Poison is the best solution to counteract Young Master’s Yang energy. It’s most effective on someone with a colder body.” Doctor Han answered Guan Tong’s question with confidence.

Guan Tong knew that this was Doctor Han’s diagnosis, but the truth was quite different.

“Madam, do you have medical knowledge too?” Doctor Han felt that it was strange. Not many people knew about the Scorpion Poison. It was an ancient medicine. In addition, it was rare to find, so he wondered how this young girl in front of him would even know of it.

“I’ve done some research. I took Lu Han’s pulse just now and found that the results were somewhat different from yours.”

“Oh? If you could tell me what you mean by this?” Doctor Han did not understand what Guan Tong was saying.

“What I meant was that you misdiagnosed Lu Han and gave him the wrong prescriptions.” Guan Tong said straightforwardly.

When Doctor Han heard this, his eyes widened. How dare this girl from nowhere to question his skills and knowledge. He was displeased by her question. “Madam, please be careful with your words. I have been practicing medicine for more than 50 years and have never made mistakes. Let alone with the matter of someone like the Young Master.”

“Doctor Han, I disagree with you. Perhaps you’ve never made a mistake before, but this time you did.” Guan Tong shook her head and immediately disagreed..
