Chapter 103 Seeking Medical Help (2/2)

It was just that Ruoxi did not think the sound was good, she also did not like Zhao Xiang.

But Zhao Xiang really like Ruoxi, he would bring many little gifts for Ruoxi whenever he came.

The Qin sound was a little confusing. Suddenly, one of the strings broke.

Zhao Xiang looked apologetically to Shen Lian, by right, Shen Lian should question the reason for Zhao Xing to be so confused and caused the string of the Guqin to break.

But Shen Lian’s answer did not go according to what Zhao Xiang had schemed.

The hot summer sun was blazing. Shen Lian’s yard was quite cooling and there was jade green Chinese wisteria on the yard’s wall that was pretty satisfying to look at. The land was overflowing with vigor that even Zhao Xiang felt the abnormality.

As a result, he felt more reassured that Shen Lian was the one who could help him.

Shen Lian smiled slightly and said, ”It’s just a broken Guqin string, you don’t have to pay too much mind on it.”

Zhao Xiang was already prepared for Shen Lian’s questions, he would explain the facts to Shen Lian but he did not expect Shen Lian to not play along.

However, he saw the mischievousness being shown on Shen Lian’s facial expression, between his eyes. How could Zhao Xiang not know that Shen Lian was exceptionally smart and he already knew he had a favor to ask him right from the beginning?

”Qing Xia, truth to be told, I do have a favor to ask of you.” Zhao Xiang was also decisive, if he had asked for help directly, Shen Lian may also not have entertained him. At the same time, things had not taken for the worst yet.

Now that the situation had become desperate, it was sooner or later he had to make this decision.

Qing Xia was an alias Shen Lian came up for himself, it was to remember Mount Qing Xia.

”What is it?” Shen Lian asked directly.

”My father is ill with this strange illness. We had many famous doctors to stop by but they could not heal him. Furthermore, he is getting worse and worse by the day. I want to know whether you could heal him.” Zhao Xiang could not say what kind of illness it was. Shen Lian was a legend, to be able to boast about being able to ‘bring the dead to life’, he could only try his luck now since he had run out of options.

As a matter of fact, he already investigated Shen Lian but it was as though he had come out of thin air, there was no lead at all. Even though the Xuanming division had Shen Lian’s dossier sixteen years ago, it was already destroyed by Shen Lian.

There was no way for a person to not have an origin but when even he could not investigate Shen Lian’s origin, this only proved that Shen Lian was indeed extraordinary.

He had never seen Shen Lian’s medical skill before. He trusted Shen Lian’s character, of course, the more main reason was that no one could treat his father’s illness.

”After all, you are approaching this with a ‘last attempt to save a hopeless situation’ manner, was it important whether I could save him or not?” Shen Lian laughed, mercilessly exposing Zhao Xiang’s intention.

There was a slight awkwardness on Zhao Xiang’s facial expression as he said, ”I am already at my wit’s end.”

Shen Lian followed, ”I open this clinic with the sole purpose to treat illnesses. If you could bring your father to me, I would naturally treat him.”

”I’m afraid this cannot be the case. Can you come to my place? I am afraid that it would be difficult to persuade my father to come here.” Zhao Xiang had a melancholic look.

”An ordinary person would not be allowed to enter the insides of the palace but I also do not wish to go. You should go advise His Highness, the Crown Prince.” Shen Lian’s facial expression was serene but his words hit like a ton of bricks, he actually already knew Zhao Xiang’s identity.

It was not difficult for Shen Lian to find out a person’s identity within three days if he put his mind to it.

Zhao Xiang forced a smile and said, ”I did not think that Qing Xia would already know about my identity. I cannot blame you though, with your intelligence, how could you not have figured it out?”

Even though he had thought of revealing his identity but he still did not expect Shen Lian to know about it. It was also rare that even when he found out, Shen Lian did not change his attitude towards him while interacting.

Even if he and his father were in a fearful situation, like being on thin ice, he was the descendant of the emperor, after all, even Kuhui would not easily turn him away.
