What a master and a miracle doctor!

Xia Weibao retracted her gaze. “I don’t accept disciples.”

Hearing that, Xiang Chu panicked. “Master…”

“Stop.” Xia Weibao signalled with her hand to stop him. “Don’t use that word so carelessly.”

“Master, please accept me.”

Xia Weibao laughed coldly. “Do you know who I am?”

“Madam Lu.”

“I’m Xia Weibao. Go search me up on the internet.”

Xiang Chu went out and after a short while, he reentered.

His face was solemn. “Master, those rumours on the internet cannot be trusted. I believe that Master is innocent.”

With such advanced medical skills, she had to be someone of extraordinary ability.

She would never be defiled by the secular world. Those people must be envious of her to smear her name so greatly.

Xia Weibao’s eyes twinkled. She had never expected that the first person to believe in her innocence would be a stranger.

Although she was a little moved, she had never thought of accepting a disciple.

To her, being someone’s teacher brought about great responsibility. It was not something to be taken lightly.

Although Xiang Chu was slightly disappointed, he did not give up hope.

If he persisted, he believed that Xia Weibao would eventually accept him as a disciple one day.

Lu Hualiang was very frustrated. This was already the third day. Why had Xia Weibao not bowed down to him?”

“How is Xia Weibao?”

He had been overseas these past three days and Yang Su had been reporting Xia Weibao’s condition to him.

Yang Su thought for a moment and said diplomatically, “Madam’s condition has not deteriorated.”

Finishing his sentence, he looked at Lu Hualiang somewhat sympathetically.

He was rather embarrassed to say that Xia Weibao was actually in good condition. He was afraid that his Master would be affected if he were to say that.

To find Xia Weibao the best doctor, he had personally travelled abroad and went all the way to invite the already retired Dr Hepburn to return and conduct the surgery.

But in the end, he had done everything in vain.

He would be so affected that he would have an existential crisis, right?

Lu Hualiang scrunched up his eyebrows. No deterioration. But that did not mean an improvement.

It had been three days. He guessed that she had suffered enough.

He believed that now would be the most painful period.

If he were to appear in front of her now and give her some hope, she would definitely be so grateful that she might tear up.

Although the doctor he brought back this time could not help her recover 100 percent, he could still help with 80%!

That was already the best outcome possible.

After all, Xiang Minhai was helpless in the beginning.

Thinking about Xia Weibao’s excitement, Lu Hualiang could not contain his eagerness to meet her.

So he stood up calmly and looked at the blonde-eyed, handsome foreigner beside him and spoke in fluent english, “Doctor Hepburn, let’s go see the patient now.”

Lu Hualiang took two steps before suddenly stopping. He once again turned around and faced the lounge before taking out his white silk handkerchief, folding it nicely and putting it away.

Disfigurement was too cruel for a woman. Xia Weibao must have been suffering a lot these past few days.

Who knew, she might even run into his arms to cry.

He took along his handkerchief because he thought that he could use it to wipe away her tears.

“What did you say? CEO Lu brought Dr Hepburn back? That renowned and authoritative Dr Hepburn himself?”

In the director’s office, Xiang Minhai jumped up from his chair in shock.

The vice-director was agitated. “Yes, Dr Hepburn!”

“Didn’t he retire and go into seclusion? Why did he come to our country?”

“CEO Lu personally went to invite him over.”

Xiang Minhai’s eyes widened. He never expected that Lu Hualiang would personally go and invite Dr Hepburn for Xia Weibao!

He had originally thought that Xia Weibao had used some underhanded methods to marry Lu Hualiang. But now it seems that it might not be the case…
