Chapter 358 Who’s Your Master?
He paused for a moment, touched his chin, and added, “I wonder who taught you this acupuncture technique. Is your master still around now? With such profound medical skills, I have to find a time to visit him properly. I’ll have to trouble you to introduce him when the time comes.”
When Mo Jiu heard this, he looked up at Mo Zhu, who was lying unconscious on the bed. Then, he looked at Elder Zhou, who was looking at him curiously. He scratched his head and replied cautiously, “Elder Zhou, what I said was true. There’s no teacher who taught me acupuncture techniques. I learned all of this from Ms. Mo!”
Following Mo Jiu’s words and looking at the man’s serious expression, Elder Zhou looked at Mo Zhu, who was lying quietly on the bed, in disbelief. A few seconds later, he said with emotion, “Is it really this girl? She’s only in her teens, right? She has such achievements at such a young age. If she studies medicine seriously, her future will definitely be limitless!”
Seeing that Elder Zhou finally believed him, Mo Jiu nodded and didn’t continue the conversation. After a while, he seemed to have recalled something and added, “Elder Zhou, please keep Ms. Mo’s acupuncture technique a secret after you leave the Huo family. After all, you know that the situation in Beijing is chaotic and in troubled times. Ms. Mo is young. If someone with ill intentions knows about this…”
Before he could finish, Elder Zhou had already understood the meaning in his words. He raised his hand indifferently and interrupted Mo Jiu. Elder Zhou touched his chin in understanding and replied, “I understand. Don’t worry, I won’t say another word.”
When Mo Jiu heard this, he understood that Elder Zhou wasn’t someone who would go back on his words. He sat on the chair at the end of the bed with ease and continued to calculate the time to remove the needles for Mo Zhu.
Unknowingly, ten minutes had passed. Under Elder Zhou’s accompaniment and care, Mo Jiu successfully removed the silver needles from Mo Zhu’s body. Mo Zhu’s pulse had also recovered to its regular pulse.
After finishing all of this, seeing that Huo Xuan didn’t look too good, Elder Zhou checked his pulse with interest.
Then, after confirming that Huo Xuan was fine and that he had only suffered some loss of blood and energy due to the forceful stimulation of his acupuncture points and increasing his strength, Elder Zhou explained this situation to Huo Tao in detail and took the initiative to suggest that it was already dark and that he wanted to leave the Huo family.
Huo Tao nodded and sent Elder Zhou out respectfully. He stood at the entrance of the small mansion and thanked him with a deep voice, “It’s been hard on you today, Elder Zhou. The Huo family will definitely bring a generous gift to the Zhou family to thank you personally someday!”
When Elder Zhou heard this, his face turned red as he waved his hand and declined. “No, no. My presence wasn’t of much use.”
He had originally wanted to treat Mo Zhu seriously, but not only was he useless because of his lack of skills, he had also gained a lot of knowledge on this trip!
As the car that sent Elder Zhou back to the Zhou family slowly drove away from the villa, Elder Zhou looked up and took a deep look at the Huo family’s small mansion, and he rubbed his palms quietly.
When he had the chance to meet the people of the Huo family again, he would definitely ask that young man to introduce him to the girl called Mo Zhu. Maybe they could even discuss medicine together in the future!
After Elder Zhou left, the small mansion quieted down. Huo Xuan had been exhausted the entire night because of Mo Zhu, so he wasn’t in good spirits.
After Huo Tao sent Elder Zhou back to the house, he instructed Xu Huan and Mo Jiu to take good care of Mo Zhu and Huo Xuan. When the two of them weren’t paying attention, he secretly gave Chen Man a look and brought the woman to the corridor.
Seeing Chen Man standing in front of him, looking at him in confusion, Huo Tao frowned slightly and clenched his fists tightly. “I’ll leave this place to you to take care of. I have to go back to the old mansion.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Man immediately put on a nervous expression. She grabbed the man’s hand and asked anxiously, “Why do you have to go back to the old mansion so late in the night?”
