The day after Old Madam Li’s birthday party.
The Pan family, who weren’t invited, shamelessly came to the Li family.
Pan Qi was wearing a suit and had a confident smile on his face. With the Li family’s support, he had a status in the medical field.
On the other hand, Mrs. Pan was also elegant and generous, looking like a noble lady.
She didn’t have to worry about food and clothing. Her daily activities were only to go to the beauty salon with a few rich ladies she was close to.
Pan Yueyue, on the other hand, looked well-behaved and sensible. She was as elegant as her mother, pleasing to the eye.
“Aunt Li, I wish you good health and a long life,” she said. “We didn’t make it to yesterday’s birthday banquet. Today, we’ll make up for it with a birthday gift.”
She handed the gift to Old Madam Li.
“Miss Pan, please call me Old Madam Li,” said Old Madam Li.
Pan Yueyue was unhappy, but she still smiled sweetly.
She replied, “You’ll look younger if I call you Aunt Li, no? Anyway, I carefully selected this. Take a look; I’m sure you’ll like it.”
Old Madam Li was speechless, feeling very upset. What did this girl mean? Was she calling her very old?
Although she wasn’t young anymore, wasn’t it too rude to say it like that?
Old Master Li said with a cold face, “Miss Pan, there’s nothing wrong with being confident, but being overconfident is an illness that needs treatment. However, since you’re here today, let’s get straight to the point; I deliberately didn’t invite you. Also, my wife won’t accept the gifts you sent.”
The Pans looked embarrassed and shocked. So it wasn’t that the person handling the invitations made a mistake, but the Lis did it on purpose?
Pan Qi smiled unnaturally. “Mr. Li, this is also a small token of appreciation from us. I’ve already brought it here, so there’s no need to take it back. Please accept it.”
“Dr. Pan,” Old Master Li said disdainfully, “We don’t lack such a gift. If I ask you to bring it back, just bring it back.”
Pan Qi’s heart skipped a beat. He used to be called Xiao Pan, but now it was Doctor Pan. There was definitely something wrong.
After pondering for a moment, he revealed a troubled expression.
“But,” he said, “I’ve already brought the gift. How can I bring it back? It’s very improper.”
Old Master Li said domineeringly, “There’s nothing wrong with that. You did save my wife’s life, but that’s just your duty as a doctor. All these years, the Li family has given the Pan family a lot of benefits. It’s time to draw a line between us.”
Pan Qi could no longer remain calm. In the past, with the Li family’s back-up, he was very bold in everything he did. But recently, he had become very brazen. “Old Master Li, what’s the matter?” asked Pan Qi. “Our families have always had a good relationship. Did we do something wrong?”
“You’re overthinking it, Dr. Pan,” Old Master Li said calmly. “There’s no reason, and there’s nothing wrong with you guys. I just don’t want to have anything to do with the Pans anymore.”
After a pause, he continued, “Dr. Pan, you’ve been a doctor for so many years, so you must’ve saved many rich people. However, have they all been as generous as my family? Did they all repay you so generously?”
Pan Qi was a little nervous and thought for a long time.
He replied, “It’s indeed a doctor’s job to save lives and heal the wounded, and I never ask for anything in return. If you say that saving a patient is for something in return, then you’d lose your job. However, a patient and his family who knows how to be grateful will naturally take the initiative to repay their lifesaver. But if they don’t know that, it’s not wrong for them to repay the doctor. So, whether the patient and his family return the kindness depends on whether they’re grateful people or not.”
Old Master Li was instantly displeased. Did Pan Qi mean that if the Lis didn’t repay him, they weren’t grateful people?
He disdainfully said, “Heh… Dr. Pan’s words made sense, but one shouldn’t be greedy, right? If a doctor uses moral kidnapping on a patient and their family, the doctor would definitely go downhill.”
Pan Qi was frightened, instinctively wiping the sweat off his forehead.
He replied, “Old Master Li is right; people should know their limits. Otherwise, they’d become too shameless.”
“You’re right. If you have nothing else to say, you can leave!” Old Master Li said with a smile.
The Pans didn’t know what to do when suddenly being chased away.
Pan Yueyue frowned. It seemed like there was no turning back. If she didn’t seize the opportunity today and used the Li family again, she wouldn’t have another chance.
She spoke up, “Old Master Li, I have an issue, but I don’t know what went wrong.. Won’t you help me one last time?”
