Chapter 13: Instant Kill in Medical Skills _1

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere instantly froze.

Unable to hold it in, Xu Lele let out a laugh.

In just a few short exchanges, Xue Xiao had quickly found himself at a disadvantage. He had intended to mock Ye Ming, but instead, it was Ye Ming who ended up mocking him.

Xue Xiao coughed and said in a serious tone, "Self-proclaimed Doctor, I was only afraid that you wouldn't understand some professional terminology, that's why I deliberately spoke in that manner."

"I specifically studied internal medicine abroad and am absolutely confident in my ability to treat Le Le's illness. As for your superstitious massage techniques, it's best not to use them anymore."

Seeing Xue Xiao bully Ye Ming like this, Xu Lele could not stand by and wanted to defend Ye Ming.

But before she could speak up, Xia Ningning on the side stepped in and said, "Xue Xiao, stop wasting words and start treating Le Le's illness quickly."

"As for the other matters, we will have plenty of time to talk about them in the future."

"Ningning..." Xu Lele was very dissatisfied with Xia Ningning's attitude but didn't know what to say at the moment.

Ye Ming, not bothering to argue further, went into the kitchen to start preparing the medicine.

The Herbal Pills he had made for his mother last time were just the most basic level of elixirs, very simple and easy to make.

This time, the medicine he was preparing for Xu Lele was a beginner-level one, which posed certain challenges, requiring precise control over the heat.

Therefore, Ye Ming was actually looking forward to his first attempt at preparing it.

Observing the exquisitely decorated kitchen, Ye Ming was well aware that Xu Lele was no ordinary person.

He guessed that her identity must be that of the legendary heiress of the Xu Family, a leader in the industry with assets worth hundreds of millions.

Although Ye Ming was not part of that circle, he had heard a thing or two.

Consequently, Ye Ming dismissed any thoughts towards Xu Lele, focusing solely on preparing the elixir. After all, he had taken their money, and even if Xue Xiao could cure her, he still had to complete his work.

...

Xu Lele sat on the sofa, and Xue Xiao used a special device to examine her body before confidently taking out a jar of medicine from his pocket.

The medicine emitted a bright green hue, not looking appetizing at all, and Xu Lele frowned continuously at the sight.

Xue Xiao confidently stated, "Le Le, don't judge this medicine by its color. In reality, its effects are excellent, unrivaled in the country!"

"It will have a very good effect on your illness. Hurry and give it a try!"

He promoted his medicine like a salesman, eagerly offering it.

In the next few minutes, under the unanimous recommendation of Xia Ningning and Xue Xiao, Xu Lele still frowned as she swallowed the medicine.

In an instant, a bitter taste overwhelmed her, almost suffocating Xu Lele, causing her to cough violently.

After the coughing fit, Xu Lele suddenly grabbed her throat, her face turning ashen, with an agonized expression.

"Xue Xiao, are you trying to kill me?" Xu Lele asked loudly.

Xia Ningning couldn't help but worry and questioned Xue Xiao, "Does this medicine really work or not? What's happening to Le Le now?"

Xue Xiao's expression remained calm as he said lightly, "Don't worry, the medicine will initially cause pain, but after one minute, the effects will start to kick in."

Seeing his confidence, Xia Ningning decided to believe in him one more time.

One minute later, the pained expression on Xu Lele's face indeed disappeared.

"Why do I feel like my illness is getting worse again?" Xu Lele weakly said.

Battling illness for so long, Xu Lele was very familiar with her own condition.

Xue Xiao finally furrowed his brows, questioning, "That's impossible, could it be an allergic reaction?"

Yet as he spoke, Xu Lele's complexion turned even paler, and her condition gradually worsened.

"Xue Xiao, are you trying to kill me?" Xu Lele asked weakly.

In a moment of panic, Xue Xiao hurried to call his mentor overseas.

Afterwards, he concluded and said, "My teacher says that Lele's condition must be surgically addressed as soon as possible."

"Her immune system is severely damaged and needs to be removed directly, for the rest of her life, she might have to rely on the strength of medicine to sustain her!"

"What?" Xia Ningning was shocked, everything seemed fine just a moment ago, how could it suddenly have come to this?

"But, Ye Ming only gave her a massage, and she got a lot better, how come she now needs surgery after coming to you?"

By now, Xia Ningning was no longer speaking up for Xue Xiao, her expression turning very serious.

Xu Lele regretted it deeply, repeatedly saying, "I won't have the surgery, I just need to drink some medicine and I'll be fine!"

Xue Xiao didn't believe it at all, still had unshakable faith in his own medical skills.

He said, "Lele, that sort of thing is just for listening, your problem is very serious, not something that can be easily solved."

"Don't worry, I will perform the surgery myself, I am fully confident I can cure you!"

Just as he was speaking at length, boasting of his medical skills, Ye Ming walked out and mocked, "After all this fuss, turns out you're a quack after all."

Xue Xiao frowned tightly and said, "What nonsense are you talking about! What I said is the most professional medical knowledge!"

Ye Ming chuckled and said, "Your medicine was not simply a treatment for the condition, but some kind of virus, meant to stimulate the patient's immune system."

"However, you didn't consider that Xu Lele's immune system was already impaired and totally useless."

Xue Xiao wanted to explain something, but after listening to Ye Ming's words and thinking it over, he couldn't help but be shocked.

He had spent months engrossed in understanding this medicinal formula, and had only recently grasped its principles, yet Ye Ming seemed to hit the nail on the head just by looking.

This has to be a guess! Xue Xiao thought to himself.

But Ye Ming couldn't care less what he was thinking and said, "You'd better go back and study for a few more days, don't come out and harm others."

"No help at all, and you only cause trouble."

"You..." Xue Xiao trembled with anger, Ye Ming's few words hit him where it hurt.

Indeed, Xue Xiao's half-baked medical knowledge, eager to display his skills to Xu Lele, had led to this consequence.

The reason being that he had learned of Xu Lele's engagement to someone else.

To prevent Xu Lele from being taken by another, that's why he had rushed back to the country.

But in the end, his good intentions had only caused harm.

Ye Ming no longer spared him another glance, instead, he placed a medicine pot in front of Xu Lele and said, "This is the first time I've boiled this medicine, it might not look great, but the effectiveness is still there, go ahead and take it."
