At this moment, Wen Qingchen had no idea about the Wen family’s sinister plans for the clinic.
Mu An eagerly commanded his guards to tidy up the clinic and then brought in piles of precious medicinal herbs.
“Doctor, these are all for you!” Mu An said fawningly.
Wen Huanzhi casually opened one of the packages and his face changed slightly. “These are extremely rare and valuable herbs. It’s too much.”
Mu An waved his hand grandly. “It’s just some herbs. There’s plenty more where that came from. I have no shortage of money. Big brother, don’t worry.”
Wen Huanzhi: “…” Who’s your brother?
Wen Qingchen looked at Mu An with a half-smile. “Mu Shao, there’s no such thing as a free lunch. You wouldn’t be giving me all these herbs without a reason, right?”
Mu An suddenly felt guilty. “No, no… the doctor saved my life. This is just my token of appreciation…”
“I don’t want to hear excuses,” Wen Qingchen interrupted. “Just tell me what you need.”
Mu An rubbed his nose, realizing he couldn’t hide anything from her, and immediately started flattering her. “Well, there is something. Doctor, do you remember the illness I had last time? You figured out immediately where I had been and that I had been possessed by a demonic flower. Actually, there was someone else who went with me that day who also contracted a strange illness…”
Mu An explained that on the day he ventured into the forest, many people were with him, but only he and a young master from the Zhang family contracted strange illnesses.
“The Zhang kid’s illness is different from mine. He’s extremely afraid of light, his fingernails and toenails have turned purple, which is very frightening. He often goes into fits of madness, and several servants who were scratched by his nails died… and turned into mummies.”
Upon hearing this, Wen Huanzhi’s expression grew serious. “How can there be such a strange illness?”
“Purple-black nails?” Wen Qingchen narrowed her eyes. “Where is he now?”
Mu An became even more embarrassed. “In… in the Wen family clinic…”
Wen Qingchen: “Huh?”
Mu An quickly explained, “I told them that you cured my illness, but when they heard that you looked very young… they thought that I actually got treated by the Wen family clinic first, and it was just a coincidence that I met you afterward. So they believe it was the Wen family clinic that cured me. That’s why they went to the Wen family clinic…”
In the end, it all boiled down to a lack of confidence in Wen Qingchen’s medical skills.
Wen Qingchen looked too young, and Mu An hadn’t believed in her abilities at first either.
He also knew Wen Qingchen was a girl. When she had decided to come down the mountain to open her clinic, Mu An had seen her disguised appearance.
If he hadn’t witnessed her medical skills firsthand, Mu An wouldn’t have believed she was a doctor either.
No wonder everyone went to the Wen Family Clinic.
The Wen Family’s Divine Doctor was not only famous in Tang City but also well-known in other cities. Naturally, people coming from afar would seek out the famous doctor.
Mu An was worried that Wen Qingchen would be angry and carefully said, “Doctor, if the Wen Family Clinic really can’t cure him, please don’t let him die…”
After all, the young master of the Zhang family was a childhood friend, and Mu An didn’t want anything to happen to him.
Wen Huanzhi said in a serious tone, “Chen’er, this illness is too strange. You’re still young. If you’re not confident, it’s better not to treat it, to avoid…”
To avoid being looked down upon.
Some people are like that; if you fail to cure an illness even once, they will completely dismiss you.
Wen Huanzhi didn’t want to see that happen.
“Don’t worry, brother.” Wen Qingchen smiled sweetly at him. “I know what I’m doing.”
She grabbed Mu An and said to Wen Huanzhi, “Brother, help me sort and store the medicinal herbs. I need to talk to Mu Shao about something!”
Without waiting for Wen Huanzhi to respond, she led Mu An out of the clinic.
Wen Huanzhi: “…”
He sighed slowly, wondering whose temperament she had inherited.
