Chapter 1177: Chapter 1204: Jian Family Reunion 11

Doctor Xu’s words made Jian Xiong show doubt. After all, this is a well-known Western doctor from abroad, and his words have some confidence. If he weren’t so sure, how could he dare to say that Madam Ouyang would die within half a month? Is it really Chu Nianyang pretending to be mystical, and he misjudged?

He Zhuyu’s expression wasn’t good. In her opinion, doctors should be sages like Nianyang, who is broad-minded and tolerant. Doctor Xu is too arrogant and sharp, which in her view, means the least medical skill.

Nianyang’s lips curled slightly with a coldness, "As a healer, you ought to know that everything must be based on symptoms before you speak. You know nothing and yet you slander me; is this the demeanor of a famous doctor?"

"Demeanor?" Doctor Xu snorted coldly, "I have practiced medicine for many years. My family were all doctors, my ancestors even served as Imperial Physicians. I always work diligently, never boasting. You, so young, boast of being a Divine Doctor. With people like you who cheat, there’s no need for the healer’s code."

The implication is that he completely looks down on Nianyang, even despising her.

"Exactly!" Jian Qingqing echoed, "Doctor Xu is the one truly worthy of respect. You just pretend to be mystical. Are you even fit to be a doctor?"

"Qingqing!"

Jian Xiong said in a deep voice, a bit embarrassed, as Nianyang was the one he invited, but now being criticized by his own family, it was truly rude.

He cleared his throat and looked at Nianyang, "I’m sorry, Chu girl. I didn’t know my granddaughter would invite another doctor today, making you uncomfortable. It’s my poor hospitality. I’ll call to apologize next time."

Nianyang had already discerned the dismissal in Jian Xiong’s tone. Clearly, internally he was leaning toward Doctor Xu, and she actually understood.

Under these circumstances, if she insisted on treating, it would only cause mutual unpleasantness, making it difficult to ask Jian Xiong for help later.

She smiled indifferently, "No problem, I understand. Healers treat diseases; age comes first. Since Doctor Xu is more confident, I will take my leave."

Jian Xiong breathed a sigh of relief, thinking, fortunately, this girl was willing to step down.

He Zhuyu held onto Nianyang unwillingly, speaking weakly, "Chu girl, I still trust you. You were the first to arrive, you treat me."

"Grandma!" Jian Qingqing walked over and pushed Nianyang aside, holding onto He Zhuyu’s hand, "Don’t be foolish. She doesn’t have the skill of Doctor Xu."

"Yes, Mom." Liu Fanglan naturally sided with her daughter, "Qingqing worked hard to find a doctor for you. Don’t waste her filial efforts."

"How about this." Doctor Xu stroked his beard, his eyes flashing with cleverness,

"I originally came later, everything should be based on who arrived first. Since we are both here, why not examine the old lady together and see whose diagnosis is better, then choose accordingly?"

This foreign doctor is very arrogant and self-assured, loving competitions and disliking people more boastful than himself.

Especially Nianyang being so young, barely old enough to be his granddaughter, yet claiming to be a Divine Doctor.

At his age, he still hasn’t earned that title. If he reveals the true face of the little girl and crushes her, won’t he be further celebrated as a Divine Doctor?
