Yang Guang thought to himself, “With my lousy voice, won’t I scare the ladies at the table when I sing?

Fortunately, Qi Yingxue spoke at this time. She looked at the crowd and said with a smile, “Forget about singing. Everyone, please eat first. I’m here to ask Yang Guang to go out!”

“What’s the matter?” Mu Xiaowan asked curiously.

“Well, Yang Guang’s medical skills are so superb. I want him to help Uncle Chen take a look!” Qi Yingxue said.

Mu Xiaowan obviously knew about Uncle Chen, so she quickly stuck out her tongue and said, “Okay. Then go quickly!”

Yang Guang stood up and went out. He followed Qi Yingxue and asked as they walked, “Sister, who is Uncle Chen?”

“My elder. He is also a well-known figure in our county. I’ll tell you in detail later!” Qi Yingxue said.

While they were talking, the two of them had already arrived at the door of another private room. They knocked on the door, and after hearing that they were invited in, Qi Yingxue pushed the door open and entered.

Yang Guang followed behind. After entering, he found that this private room was very big. There was a sofa.

At this moment, a white-haired old man was sitting there. There were a few people around him. It seemed that those people respected him and were chatting with him.

“Uncle Chen, the Yang Guang that I told you about is here!” Qi Yingxue said with a smile.

Everyone’s eyes turned over and were immediately stunned.

Although they knew that Qi Yingxue was going to bring a doctor over to take Old Chen’s pulse, no one had expected that it would be a young man who did not even have a beard!

It was said that those who did not have any hair on his mouth could not handle things well. This young man knew how to treat patients?

Seeing the doubt in everyone’s eyes, Qi Yingxue quickly said, “Everyone, don’t worry. Although this younger brother of mine is young, his medical skills are very good. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have introduced him to Uncle Chen!”

“Since that’s the case, then I’ll have to trouble you to help me take a look!”

Chen Zhiyuan nodded and said softly.

Seeing that the old man had agreed, Qi Yingxue’s heart relaxed and she quickly glanced at Yang Guang.

Yang Guang knew what she was thinking. He nodded and went to the sofa.

The people surrounding Chen Zhiyuan sensibly retreated and gave up their seats.

After sitting down, Yang Guang put two fingers on Chen Zhiyuan’s wrist and focused on checking.

There was complete silence in the room. No one spoke.

In less than a minute, Yang Guang released his hand. “Old Chen’s health is not bad. There’s no big problem!”

When everyone heard that, some of them heaved a sigh of relief, while some secretly rolled their eyes in their hearts!

In the first place, the old man did not have any illness. If Qi Yingxue insisted on a checkup to express her filial piety, wouldn’t that be a waste of time?

By doing so, Qi Yingxue would be trying to curry favor with the old man!

Just as some of them were thinking this in their hearts, Yang Guang continued, “But just because there’s no problem now doesn’t mean there won’t be a problem in the future!”

Everyone was stunned. Chen Zhiyuan also frowned and looked at him as he asked, “Kid, what do you mean by this?”

“You’ve been taking some vitality-replenishing medicine recently, right?”

Yang Guang did not answer directly but asked a strange question.

Chen Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment before he nodded. “That’s right!”

He was secretly puzzled. Only he and the driver knew that he was taking the tonic. How did this young man figure it out? Could it be that he really had very good medical skills?

After receiving confirmation, Yang Guang nodded, then, he said, “As a person grows old, there’s no problem for him to replenish his vitality. But I suggest that you go back and check those herbs to see if there’s black false hellebore inside. This thing is not easy to recognize. It looks like a thin black tea leaf. There shouldn’t be many of them. If you look carefully, you should find it!”

“Oh, why are you looking for this thing?” Chen Zhiyuan asked.

“It’s common sense to take a normal tonic to nourish the body. However, there might be 18 adverse reactions after the black false hellebore encounters the red sage. That would be life-threatening!”

Yang Guang said. Seeing that everyone was shocked, he continued, “Fortunately, the medicine Old Chen took was taken in multiple small doses. It’s not harmful to the body. However, if it’s taken for a long time, it will still endanger life!”

“It’s that serious?”

Chen Zhiyuan narrowed his eyes and asked in a deep voice.

“This kid may be talking nonsense. The medicine that Old Chen bought was from the best pharmacies. He found an old Chinese medicine doctor that he was familiar with to prescribe them. How could he not know the side effects?” Someone said.

Yang Guang nodded. “That’s right. What you said makes sense. So I suggest that Old Chen go back and find the evidence first. After he finds it, he should investigate who did it!”

Chen Zhiyuan pondered for a moment and looked at Yang Guang. “What if the medicine I took doesn’t have any black false hellebore in it?”

Yang Guang smiled. “That possibility is zero. Your physical fitness is very good, but there is already a preliminary accumulation of toxins in your liver!”

“Kid, think carefully. You have to be responsible for saying such things!” The person who spoke just now shouted loudly!

Yang Guang glanced at him. “Of course I know. You don’t have to remind me!”

After saying that, he added, “But I also have to remind you that you’re certain that this isn’t true before you check the medicinal herbs, so if you find the black false hellebore later, how are you going to explain it?”

When that person heard that, his eyes immediately widened and he became mute.

When he saw Chen Zhiyuan looking at him, he immediately waved his hand. “Old Man, I don’t have any other intentions. I just feel that with your prestige, no one will harm you!”

“Yes, I understand!”

Chen Zhiyuan remained calm and nodded. “How about this, Yingxue, you make a trip to my house to get the medicine. The Chinese medicine is in the cabinet in the living room!”

“Okay, I’ll go now!”

Qi Yingxue nodded and glanced at Yang Guang.

She wanted Yang Guang to go with her.

However, Yang Guang shook his head. “I can’t go. If I go with you, even if we find the black false hellebore when we come back, people will say that I put it in midway!”

Hearing this, Chen Zhiyuan laughed. “Young Man, you’re thoughtful enough. But don’t worry. Yingxue is my most trusted junior. With her around, you won’t have the chance to put that thing in!”

Hearing this, Yang Guang shrugged his shoulders. “Alright then. I’ll follow Sister Yingxue for a trip. Just treat it as an escort!”

After leaving the private room, seeing Qi Yingxue’s hurried footsteps, Yang Guang chased after her and asked, “Sister, why are you so nervous?”

“I believe in your medical skills. I believe that something was added to Uncle Chen’s medicine. But do you know what this means?” Qi Yingxue asked as she walked.

“It means that someone is trying to harm him!” Yang Guang said.

“That’s right. If that’s the case, things will be more complicated!”

Qi Yingxue gritted her teeth and quickened her pace.

After getting into the car and leaving the restaurant, Yang Guang continued to ask, “It seems that the old man really trusts you. He doesn’t allow others to get the medicine!”

“I call him Uncle Chen, but since I was three years old, I grew up in his house. He is just like my father!” Qi Yingxue said.

“Then no wonder!”

Yang Guang nodded. Only then did he understand why Qi Yingxue was so anxious..
