Yu Zhongjing saved the entire Yu family himself. It was because of Yu Zhongjing’s recognition as the leading brain expert that the Yu family enjoyed its current status in society. The powerful families in the capital had great respect for the Yus because of him. No one wanted to offend a doctor with excellent medical skills.

  If she could become a student of Yu Zhongjing, she would rapidly rise in the world and become valuable to powerful families. Then, she would become someone whom people, including Gu Mang, looked up to.

  Gu Yin’s eyes glistened.

  “Okay, go to bed after you’re done washing up,” said Lei Xiao. Wondering for a moment, he couldn’t help but ask, “Does your sister know anyone from the Qin family?”


  Gu Yin was stunned for a moment. “The Qin family? The one who lives in the same district as us?”


  Lei Xiao nodded.

  Gu Yin shook her head and laughed gently. “How could Sis be acquainted with the Qins? Given the Qins’ standing in society they wouldn’t be interested in someone like Sis.”


  Gu Mang was someone from the gutters whom the powerful families probably wouldn’t care to notice.

  Lei Xiao frowned and didn’t say anything else. He had to investigate Gu Mang’s appearance at the Qin residence earlier……

  Early next morning.

  Qin Rui personally went to Ming City’s top Chinese medicine clinic to get the prescription Gu Mang had written for him.

  Upon seeing the prescription the head of the gynecology department frowned. “Department Chief Qin, who gave you this prescription?”


  Qin Rui didn’t say who it was and asked, “What’s wrong?”


  “It’s bad! How can this medicine be used together? It’s a bad combination! It would only aggravate Ms. Yaozhi’s condition!” The head of the department seemed to think that the prescription was an insult to Chinese medicine. Infuriated, he pushed the prescription back to Qin Rui. “I can’t fill this prescription. You should go somewhere else.”


  Qin Rui pursed his lips. He looked down at the sticky note in his hand. “It’ll make it worse?”


  “Yes!” The department head said loudly. “Department Chief Qin, if the person who gave the prescription is your friend, you’d better tell him to stop cheating people. How can he make such irresponsible prescriptions?”


  Qin Rui walked out of the department head’s office holding his cell phone. Standing in the hospital’s emergency exit corridor, he waited to call Gu Mang during her recess. Just as the ringing was about to stop, Gu Mang answered the call.

  “Ms. Gu, it’s me, Qin Rui,” he said urgently.

  It was a little noisy on Gu Mang’s end. He could hear the boisterous students who were making a ruckus during break. Her voice was languid and it seemed like she had just woken up. “Hmm, what’s the matter?”


  Qin Rui said, “I’m at the top hospital with the prescription you gave me. They said that the medicine in the prescription would work against each other so they refused to fill the prescription.”


  Gu Mang sighed impatiently. “Qin Rui, do I have to teach you about abuses of power?”


  Qin Rui said nothing in response.

  “Do you believe the physician and think that my prescription is problematic?” Gu Mang’s low, raspy voice seemed bewitching and dangerous as it faded out.

  Qin Rui was silent. The unspeakable pride in her voice could even be heard over the phone.

  Gu Mang lay on the table, her long legs straightened out as she replied nonchalantly, “I’ve performed the diagnosis and made the prescription. Whether she takes it or not is up to you.”


  She hung up afterwards. Qin Rui was confused and couldn’t stop himself from swearing. What the f……

  Qin Rui laughed, put away the cell phone, and opened the emergency access door.

  The department head saw Qin Rui walking back. Sighing, he urged him kindly, “Department Chief Qin, Ms. Yaozhi’s condition should be treated slowly. The research institute is already preparing a specialist for consultation. There is definitely a way to help her.”


  Qin Rui slapped the prescription on the table, his face stern. Feeling pressured, he said solemnly, “Prescribe the medicine.”
