Hao Yun crouched beside Big Black as her tears fell on the floor.
Big Black was taken in when she was young and grew up with her. During her childhood, Big Black had always protected her. Reminiscing her memories, Hao Yun’s heart felt even more uncomfortable.
Moreover, ever since her grandmother’s passing, her grandfather started becoming reclusive and pretty much took Big Black as his life partner. If Big Black were to leave now, it would be a greater pain to him.
Qin Baichuan could not help but sigh. He then whispered to Ye Lingchen, “It seems this won’t go well today. We’ve come at a bad time.”
When seeking help, one should pick a time when the other party was in a good mood. If the other party was in a bad mood, one would most likely be turned away.
Ye Lingchen frowned and considered for a moment, then answered, “That might not be the case.”
Since he was already there, he did not plan to return empty-handed. Developing his own island had already been a top priority for him. It was something he needed done as soon as possible.
Following that, he took a few steps forward and stated calmly, “Everyone, I think I have a solution.”
Ye Lingchen’s statement surprised everyone. The others were fine, but the vets were immediately on their edge.
“Nonsense! That’s impossible!”
“You’re just babbling nonsense! The ignorant are indeed fearless. Kid, are you a vet?”
“What other ways are there when one’s lifespan has reached its limits? This is not a disease. It’s similar to a human. It’s just too difficult to extend one’s life!”
“Hehe, what a boastful kid. Even us vets have no solution. Just what are you basing your crazy claims on?”
The younger one of the vets sneered sarcastically, “I think you’re just trying to brag after noticing Miss Hao’s beauty and family background. It’s all to get her attention, isn’t it!?”
He threw slanderous remarks at Ye Lingchen the moment he spoke.
In truth, it was just his own heart being filled with darkness. He had his eyes on Hao Yun, therefore measured others by his standards.
Hao Yun was beautiful, brimming with energy, and had an excellent family background. To him, she had both the looks and the wealth. From the first time he laid eyes on her, the thought had appeared. Seeing Ye Lingchen being close to Hao Yun triggered his jealousy, which led to the sarcastic remarks.
Ye Lingchen glanced at him and was able to see right through him. He stated flatly, “So what if I manage to treat it?”
Hao Yun looked at Ye Lingchen, then asked with a worried tone, “God Ye, can you really save Big Black? These vets have worked in their line for over a dozen years. They’re well known in Capital City. Moreover, Big Black is already 14 years old…”
She was worried that Ye Lingchen would be embarrassed. The reality of the situation was not looking good and Ye Lingchen was her idol. Although she really hoped to save Big Black, she would feel bad if Ye Lingchen was ridiculed for it.
Ye Lingchen laughed calmly, “Don’t worry. Since I’ve said it, it will be done.”
“Hehe, who doesn’t know how to brag?” The young vet laughed mockingly. Seeing Hao Yun’s attitude toward Ye Lingchen made him feel even more annoyed. “I’m afraid you don’t even know how ignorant you are. You’re just trying to sway their hearts with empty words!”
After that, he looked toward Hao Yun. “Miss Hao, if Big Black dies from this kid’s treatment, we won’t be responsible for it.”
The other vets immediately nodded in agreement. Big Black was obviously beyond saving. This hothead came just at the right time. That was the opportunity for them to shift the blame. That way, they would not offend Grandmaster Hao and could save their own reputation.
Hao Yun had trouble deciding. “God Ye, can you really do it?”
She naturally knew about her own idol well. He was just a celebrity. What could he do to save Big Black?
“Hehe, Yun’er, just let Lingchen try.” Qin Baichuan smiled. He knew Ye Lingchen’s secret of being Miracle Doctor Y. Although the patient was a dog, he should still have his ways.
Hao Yun and Grandmaster Hao looked at Ye Lingchen in astonishment. They knew of Qin Baichuan’s personality. It was unexpected for him to trust such a young man.
“L-l-let’s give it a try then,” Hao Yun stuttered after biting her lip.
Ye Lingchen nodded, then walked forward slowly.
It was weird. As Ye Lingchen approached, Big Black, who was whimpering all the while, suddenly calmed down. It looked at Ye Lingchen and showed a hint of fondness in its eyes.
He had the Animal Taming skill that gave him an affinity with animals, especially when it was animals that were not too threatening, like a dog. Moreover, his constitution was different from others. It was as though he was one with nature. Near him, animals would feel comfortable.
That scene made everyone watching amazed.
“It’s okay, relax. I’ll save you.” Ye Lingchen patted Big Black on the head. Surprisingly, Big Black obediently closed its eyes.
“Wow, it’s really working. Big Black had never been so obedient in front of me,” Hao Yun blurted while her confidence in him grew.
“Tsk, parlor tricks!” the young vet pouted.
Ye Lingchen’s eyebrows twitched and shifted his gaze to the young vet. At first, he did not plan to lower himself to deal with this clown, but that did not mean that he would tolerate his constant tomfoolery.
“Shut your trap if you’re useless!” Ye Lingchen retorted calmly.
“You…vulgar person!” huffed the young vet.
Ye Lingchen stopped the movement of his hand. “Since you don’t believe me, why don’t we have a bet? If I successfully treat Big Black, you’ll never practice as a vet again. How about that?”
The vet’s expression changed, then sneered, “What for? What are you? How are you worthy to bet with me?”
Just as he finished his sentence, Qin Baichuan coldly stated, “For the sole reason that I’m the witness. Will that work?”
“And who are you?”
“Will this be sufficient?” Qin Baichuan showed his documents.
“This is…”
All the vets, including the young one, had a surprised look on their faces. That was the chief instructor in the Warrior’s Department—he was a General!
That was definitely the big shot amongst big shots. It would only require an order from him to take them away right that instant, let alone have them lose their vet license for life.
The young vet’s face immediately turned pale and was too stunned for words.
Qin Baichuan swept a cold glance over this group of people, causing them to quiet down immediately.
He was there to settle official business. This bunch of vets were just treating animals. Their status was insignificant due to the limited contribution to society. When compared to Ye Lingchen, it was like comparing a firefly to a full moon.
Having these small fries chattering for such a long time was wearing down on Qin Baichuan’s patience.
If it delayed his official matters, these people were as good as criminals!
