BXBX NOVEL Chapter 117: Master Huang, You Came? (Third Update)
Huang Xiaolong thought to himself, “Fat Wu really retained all of her mother’s strengths, and even exceeded them.”
“Mom, this is the doctor I found for dad, Huang Xiaolong,” Wu Shanshan quickly said.
“Ah… Doctor Little Huang… Hello, hello,” Mother Wu nodded at Huang Xiaolong politely.
“Hello aunty,” Huang Xiaolong replied with a smile.
“Shanshan, what kind of traditional Chinese doctor have you found? A mere peasant! You’ve been deceived!” A slick looking young man marched out of the bedroom.
He was dressed brightly, but he was less than 1.7 meters tall. Standing next to Wu Shanshan, he looked more like a minor next to an adult.
His facial features weren’t well defined either, his face riddled with acne like the skin of an orange, and he had very small eyes that you had to squint to find.
“God, this guy really has big dreams for someone so shabby looking. He wants to be Fat Wu’s boyfriend? It’s true, the size of one’s dreams reflect the size of their heart…” Huang Xiaolong thought disdainfully.
“Qian Gang, I never thought you were this sort of person, using my father’s illness to threaten them. Now I see your true colors. Leave. Who I find to treat my father has nothing to do with you, ” Wu Shanshan ordered Qian Gang to leave, barely containing her anger.
“Hehe, Shanshan, I didn’t mean to threaten your parents, it’s just that I care about you too much,” Qian Gang protested. “Look, your uncle’s leg disease has progressed to the point where amputation might be necessary. Who else but old master Fang can help at this point? Seriously, look who you’ve brought home. This peasant. He’s a hundred percent a swindler. Look at the mud still on his shoes. This village bumpkin better leave my sight pronto. Or else, I promise you won’t get out of here unscathed.”
As he spoke, Qian Gang glared at Huang Xiaolong maliciously. “Get out, don’t ever cross my sight again! Or I’ll beat you every time I catch you!”
“Hehe—” Wu Shanshan scoffed at Qian Gang’s threat.
Just who was Huang Xiaolong?
Even a tough girl like Wu Shanshan was nothing in front of him.
What did Qian Gang count as?
If he angered Huang Xiaolong, he could incapacitate him to the point where he couldn’t fend for himself!
Thinking of Huang Xiaolong’s manipulative ways, Wu Shanshan already began grieving for Qian Gang.
But Huang Xiaolong just smiled brightly, even as Qian Gang was hurling insults at him. Afterall, would a lion get angry if an ant threatened it?
“Fat Wu, time is money, let me go in and have a look at your father,” Huang Xiaolong said to Wu Shanshan, smiling.
“Sure,” Wu Shanshan nodded.
Mother Wu cast curious glances between Huang Xiaolong and Wu Shanshan.
“This Doctor Little Huang… called my daughter Fat Wu? The thing my daughter hates the most is for people to call her fat. But when Doctor Little Huang calls her Fat Wu, she doesn’t seem the slightest bit upset… Oh dear, could it be that…
their relationship… is…
Mother Wu guessed this and that, then she began to carefully observe Huang Xiaolong.
This gaze resembled that of a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law.
And that was something that worried her parents a bit.
The problem was that their daughter was too violent and irritable. Any ordinary man wouldn’t be able to handle her, let alone be together with her.
It’s quite difficult for someone with such a personality to find a boyfriend.
So, Wu Shanshan’s parents were worried that she would remain single.
And yet, today, Wu Shanshan had brought a boy home…
“This Little Huang may not be as tall as my daughter, but he does have a good figure. His attire is a bit shabby, but he looks sharp and his facial features are quite handsome. His eyes are clear and bright, he doesn’t seem like a bad person at all. If only he would change his clothes, he’d be quite a hetty. He and my Shanshan, they look quite a match, really a good match!”
The more a mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more she likes him…
“Little Huang, thank you for doing this. Why don’t you go in and have a look at her father?” Mother Wu said with a smile. She unconsciously stopped calling him “Doctor Little Huang,” and simply called him “Little Huang.”
“No! This peasant knows medicine? Impossible! Look at his appearance, he could beg on the streets without changing his clothes!” Qian Gang scorned, “Peasant, I’ve warned you once. If you don’t want to get beaten, leave now!” Just then…
A distinguished-looking older man dressed in navy blue with a medicine box on his back came out of the master bedroom. “Ai—Qian Gang, I’ve taken a look at the patient’s legs, but there’s nothing I can do. You’ll have to find someone else for this case. But honestly…l’m afraid it’ll be hard to find a doctor in Binhai who can save both legs, Chinese or Western medicine notwithstanding.”
“Ah?” Qian Gang was taken aback.
Both Wu Shanshan and Mother Wu felt a pang in their hearts!
“If…if…if even Old Master Fang is helpless, Uncle Wu might as well go to the hospital for the amputation,” Qian Gang seemed disappointed.
He initially wanted to use Old Master Fang’s medical skills to make Wu Shanshan comply, but now, Old Master Fang had also admitted he was hopeless, which somewhat frustrated Qian Gang.
Suddenly!
Old Master Fang stared at Huang Xiaolong.
Huang Xiaolong looked back at Old Master Fang, feeling he looked familiar.
‘Oh…l remember now. He was at the first people’s hospital doing pulse diagnosis and pregnancy tests yesterday…he was some kind of Chinese medicine authority, invited by the first people’s hospital…’ Huang Xiaolong quickly made this connection.
Then, Old Master Fang calmed himself and walked to Huang Xiaolong with a bow, “Master Huang, you’re here.”
He continued, “Master Huang, I witnessed your miraculous medical skills at the First People’s Hospital yesterday. It was quite an admiration. I didn’t expect to have the opportunity to meet Master Huang today. It’s a great honor for an old man like me.”
At this point, Qian Gang, Wu Shanshan, and Mother Wu were all stunned.
Master Huang?
Did they get it wrong? Old Master Fang, a respected figure in the Binhai
Chinese medicine community, was suddenly bowing to a mere peasant?
And he even referred to him as ‘Master Huang,’ as though a student meeting his highly respected teacher!
