"Oh? Is that true?"
Hearing Lin Chen's words, Liu Guozhu appeared half-believing, half-doubting.
Good heavens, drinking wine brewed with stink bugs to alleviate his symptoms, this was indeed the first time he had ever heard of such a thing!
"Naturally, it's true. Old Master Liu can try it. If it doesn't work, then you can come to me for punishment without delay."
Lin Chen spoke with a confident expression, making a guarantee to Liu Guozhu.
"Very well, since that's the case, please Dr. Lin and Dr. Xie rest here for now, and you may also look around. I shall go and try it immediately!"
After receiving Lin Chen's affirmative reply, Liu Guozhu did not linger further and left directly with Dean Zhou.
However, as he was leaving the living room, Dean Zhou turned back and cast a deep glance at Lin Chen.
That gaze seemed as if it could penetrate Lin Chen's very being.
But at this moment, Lin Chen was not flustered in the slightest. With the Nine Dragon Ring protecting him, let alone a cultivator in the late Foundation Establishment stage, even a cultivator in the late Core Formation stage would be unable to see through his true capabilities!
After Dean Zhou and Liu Guozhu had departed, Xie Yun approached Lin Chen, "Lin Chen, are you sure your method will be effective?"
"Don't worry, Old Master Liu will surely return to thank me later."
"Dr. Xie, you rest here for a while. I'm going to take a look around."
Seeing Xie Yun's worried expression, Lin Chen smiled slightly.
Since entering the Liu family villa, he had released his divine sense, and he had now detected a familiar aura entering the villa.
With Old Master Liu and the others absent, it was the perfect opportunity to go and investigate.
"Alright."
Upon hearing Lin Chen's words, Xie Yun did not doubt him.
After all, she herself knew that although Lin Chen was her assistant, when it came to medical skills, she was perhaps inferior to him in some aspects!
After making arrangements with Xie Yun, Lin Chen immediately left the living room and walked directly towards the source of the aura.
As he passed through the front garden, a group of people approached him.
And walking in the center was Qiu Hanying!
"Huh? Lin Chen? What are you doing here?"
Seeing Lin Chen before her, Qiu Hanying was momentarily stunned.
Good heavens, she hadn't heard that Lin Chen had any connection with the Liu family, so why did she keep running into him wherever she went?
Although for the current Qiu Hanying, she knew that she was beginning to fall for Lin Chen, but her purpose here today was...
"Heh heh heh, Xiao Ying, what are you all doing here?"
Seeing Qiu Hanying before him, Lin Chen narrowed his eyes slightly.
Her eyes were red-rimmed, with dark circles, clearly indicating she had been crying and had likely not slept last night.
"You're that swindler? You're even coming to the Liu family to swindle people now?"
However, before Qiu Hanying could reply, Qiu Mingfei, standing beside her, suddenly stepped forward, pointing at Lin Chen's nose and starting to curse.
To this day, he had not forgotten the humiliation he suffered at Ru Shuang Group before!
He had actually wet himself out of fear!
In his opinion, the haunting incident at Ru Shuang Group a few days ago was definitely linked to this Lin Chen.
Otherwise, why would it have been such a coincidence at that time?
Ru Shuang Group had just experienced a haunting, and this Lin Chen appeared at Ru Shuang Group in the middle of the night at twelve o'clock?
"What? A swindler? Young friend, are you sure this Mr. Lin is a swindler? Don't speak carelessly, be careful not to bring disaster upon yourself with your words!"
The butler beside them was even more astonished upon hearing Qiu Mingfei's address for Lin Chen.
Good heavens, their master was currently preparing to test Lin Chen's method. If this Lin Chen was truly a swindler, wouldn't the Liu family have lost immense face this time?
The head of the dignified Liu family, brewing wine with the bladders of stink bugs, if outsiders were to find out, wouldn't they mock Old Master Liu?
"Hmph, of course, I'm sure! He's an out-and-out swindler. No matter what he says, don't be deceived by him!"
Upon hearing the butler's questioning, Qiu Mingfei immediately confirmed.
"Not good! I must quickly report to Master!"
Receiving Qiu Mingfei's confirmation, the butler did not dare to delay any further and turned to leave, completely disregarding Lin Chen and the others who remained where they were.
They all knew that as long as someone entered the Liu family, they could not leave without the master's permission!
Therefore, the butler had no fear that Lin Chen would use this opportunity to escape.
After the butler left, Qiu Mingfei, with a smug expression, slowly approached Lin Chen, "Tsk tsk tsk, you poor dog, I was wondering where to find you, and yet you've come to the Liu family to swindle.
"I truly underestimated you! Just wait, when that butler returns, it will be the time of your demise!"
At this moment, Qiu Mingfei's face was filled with emotion, and he looked at Lin Chen with a hint of pity.
His demeanor was as if he were looking at a corpse.
But it made sense, this was the truly foremost family in Hangcheng!
For Lin Chen to dare to come here and swindle, wasn't he courting death?
"Oh, Xiao Ying is here?"
However, just as Qiu Mingfei was about to continue mocking Lin Chen, a calm and indifferent voice sounded from the side.
Everyone turned to look and saw the eldest young master of the Liu family, Liu Shaojun!
"Young Master Liu, no, brother-in-law, quickly look, there's a swindler here, brazenly swindling on your Liu family's territory!"
Upon seeing Liu Shaojun arrive, Qiu Mingfei's face lit up with joy.
This was the future head of the Liu family! With him supporting me, wouldn't I be able to swagger through Hangcheng from now on?
"Oh? A swindler? How is he swindling?"
Hearing Qiu Mingfei's words, Liu Shaojun's face was filled with curiosity.
"Reporting to Young Master, this person is a doctor from the Fifth Hospital and claims he can treat Master's illness, but he wants Master to brew wine with the bladders of stink bugs."
A servant beside them did not hesitate and quickly stepped forward to explain to Liu Shaojun.
"What? This is outrageous!"
Hearing the servant's words, Liu Shaojun became furious.
Good heavens, this damnable swindler dared to ask his own grandfather to brew wine with stink bugs!
This was simply an insult to the entire Liu family!
As Liu Shaojun's words fell, bodyguards surrounding them instantly moved closer, their hands on their guns pointed directly at Lin Chen's head.
As long as Liu Shaojun gave the order, they would immediately open fire without any hesitation.
"Young Master Liu, please calm down!"
Just as Liu Shaojun was about to erupt in anger, Qiu Hanying, seeing the dire situation, quickly stepped forward.
"Young Master Liu, this is my friend. I implore you to give me some face and spare him, alright?"
Seeing the dark muzzles of the guns surrounding them, Qiu Hanying's face was filled with worry.
She knew Lin Chen was capable, and she knew he could fight ghosts, but surely he couldn't be faster than bullets, right?
