The Strongest Mad Son-in-law

Chapter 334: No One Believes the Truth



Li Chenggong hadn't expected that Guan Wenzhi would be so impatient, and retorted Xu Hao on the spot.

He awkwardly smiled and said, "Xu Xiao You, this is Doctor Guan Wenzhi. His medical skills are very exquisite. He happens to be in Huadu at the moment, so I invited him to look at Niuniu's illness. Please understand the feelings of us parents; if there's even a glimmer of hope, we won't let it pass. Doctor Guan tends to speak frankly, so don't take it to heart."

Guan Wenzhi was somewhat displeased, as he was speaking the truth, yet Old Mr. Li was trying to diplomatically smooth things over.

The biggest strength, yet also the biggest weakness of his personality, was his tendency to take things seriously. He snorted coldly, "Healing the sick is a doctor's duty, but I won't allow anyone to spout nonsense under my watch!"

Xu Hao wasn't angry either; arguing with such a serious, academic type was just asking for trouble, so he smiled and said, "Doctor Guan, 'practice is the only criterion for testing truth,' this phrase isn't wrong, is it?"

Guan Wenzhi snorted, "Of course that's not wrong, and I know what you're trying to say, but Old Li's daughter is not a guinea pig!"

Li Chenggong's face changed slightly, he had almost forgotten that Xu Hao seemed to have no precedent for curing patients with vitiligo before!

If he couldn't cure it, or if there were even side effects...

He glanced at the bulging bag of Chinese medicine in Xu Hao's hand, feeling somewhat uneasy. If these medicines had even the slightest side effects, the consequences would be unthinkable!

Xu Hao said with a smile, "Doctor Guan, what is your plan for treating Niuniu's vitiligo?"

Guan Wenzhi snorted, "I am well aware of my limitations and can't cure Niuniu's disease, but my Master should be able to!"

"Who is your master?" asked Xu Hao.

"The Southwest Medicine King, Lei Qianjue, is my master!" Guan Wenzhi said proudly.

The name of Southwest Medicine King Lei Qianjue resounded throughout half of the southern region; almost no one was unaware of his fame. As the third disciple of Southwest Medicine King Lei Qianjue, he naturally took pride in his Master's renowned name.

Upon hearing this, Xu Hao laughed and said, "I thought it was someone formidable. It turns out to be Lei Qianjue. I'm actually his master!"

"Presumptuous!!!"

Upon hearing such "outrageous blasphemy" from Xu Hao, Guan Wenzhi was livid with rage and was restraining himself forcefully, or else he would've lunged at Xu Hao.

He angrily rebuked, "You, a whippersnapper who hasn't fully grown your hair yet, dare to insult my master! Guan Wenzhi hereby swears enmity against you!"

Li Chenggong also couldn't help but smile bitterly. Who would have known Xu Hao would say such a thing?

The respected Lei Qianjue was an old man well past his seventies, and you, a man in his twenties, claim to be his master? Isn't that nonsense?

At that moment, Li Chenggong somewhat regretted inviting Xu Hao so hastily. Having clashed with the disciple of Lei Qianjue, whom should he support?

Ultimately, Li Chenggong still said, "Both of you, please calm down, let's discuss this slowly..."

Xu Hao said with a faint smile, "What I said is the truth. I was initially unwilling to accept Lei Qianjue, considering his old age, but he insisted on acknowledging me as a master and wanted me to take him as a disciple. I really had no choice! Eventually, I had to take him as my disciple."

"That's absolutely impossible! You must be making this up!"

Guan Wenzhi couldn't believe such a thing could happen. His master was revered by thousands; how could he possibly acknowledge a milk-faced kid as his master?

Xu Hao shrugged helplessly and said, "If you don't believe me, you can call Lei Qianjue and ask him to tell you in person whether he is indeed my disciple or not."

"Kid, don't think I'm afraid of you! I'll call right now; I don't believe my master has become senile!" Guan Wenzhi snorted coldly before making the call to Lei Qianjue.

He didn't mention the matter of becoming a disciple but informed him about Niuniu's condition and asked for his help.

The words from Lei Qianjue excited Guan Wenzhi, "Wait two more days, I'm studying a very profound medical text. It contains information about vitiligo. Once I completely understand it, I might actually be able to treat vitiligo!"

Xu Hao nodded. Naturally, what Lei Qianjue was studying were some medical skills written by Xu Hao himself, which included research on genetics. Some genetic diseases had been conquered with treatment methods, but Xu Hao had to admit that some still lacked solutions even to this day.

Upon hearing this, Li Chenggong was instantly delighted. How could a figure like Lei Qianjue indulge in idle talk?

If he said there was a possibility, then it meant there was a great chance!

Compared to Xu Hao, he was clearly more inclined to believe in the long-established reputation of Lei Qianjue.

Thinking this way, Li Chenggong said joyfully, "Medicine King Lei Qianjue is indeed amazing; he's studying these things. This is what it means to integrate Chinese and Western medicine! If we have to wait another two days, so be it. We have waited so many years; a little longer won't matter."

Guan Wenzhi said with a smug look, "Of course. My master has a broad knowledge of books from all ages and places, including medical techniques from both China and the West. Perhaps this time he might really be able to treat vitiligo."
