Chapter 1250: Chapter 1251: Be My Wife

”Dr. Zhao, I beg you, please find a way to save my grandfather,” Qiao Xue pleaded through her tears.

”Miss Qiao, it’s not that we don’t want to save him, but it’s truly impossible. The old man is in critically poor condition, and he’s in imminent danger of life-threatening complications. You should prepare for the worst!” Dr. Zhao shook his head and said.

The Qiao family was a business giant in West City, owning not just jewelry, but also real estate, hotels, and other enterprises. If Qiao Shan passed away, it’d surely lead to dramatic changes in West City’s commercial sector.

Everyone present sighed upon hearing the doctor’s words.

No one expected that after the Qiao family had just lost their Family Head, Qiao Sheng, their pillar, the founder Qiao Shan, was now dying too.

At that moment, Qiao Xue was already sobbing uncontrollably, yet the second and third eldest of the Qiao family exchanged glances with an unmistakable look of joy.

The Qiao family had three sons; the eldest, Qiao Sheng, was actually the backbone of the family. Years ago, Qiao Shan had passed the position of Family Head to him, but unfortunately, Qiao Sheng died unexpectedly not long ago.

As for the second and third sons, they were only good at squandering wealth. So after Qiao Sheng died, Qiao Shan didn’t give them the position of Family Head but instead took up the role again, which greatly displeased the two brothers.

”Qiao Xue, don’t be sad. Before grandfather died, he passed the position of Family Head to our second brother. You should focus on taking care of the funeral arrangements, and leave the company matters to us two brothers,” the third son sneered.

”Grandfather isn’t dead yet, and you two are already thinking about the Family Head position? Are you even human?” Qiao Xue glared at the two brothers angrily.

Qiao Tai snorted coldly, ”Qiao Xue, I know you’re also thinking about the Family Head position, but father already left a will, passing it to the second brother.”

As he spoke, Qiao Tai produced a will.

The content of the will roughly specified that the position of Family Head was to be passed to Qiao family’s eldest, Qiao Yong, with Qiao Shan’s signature below.

Looking at the will, Qiao Xue’s gaze sharpened.

She was very familiar with her grandfather’s script and immediately recognized the will as a forgery.

At this moment, Qiao Xue was utterly disappointed in her two uncles. Her grandfather was on the brink of death, yet they only cared about his assets, even forging a will.

”Second uncle, third uncle, you truly disappoint me. Grandpa is about to pass away, yet as his sons, you show no sorrow, caring only for his wealth. Rest assured, I won’t contest a single penny of Qiao family’s assets with you; I just hope grandpa can leave peacefully,” Qiao Xue said solemnly.

At this moment, no one noticed a trace of tears appear on Qiao Shan’s face.

Amid the argument, Lin Chen had quietly seated himself next to the elder Qiao.

He placed his hand on the elder’s wrist and his eyes scanned his body.

A golden light flashed, making Qiao Shan’s body appear transparent, and his condition instantly became clear to Lin Chen.

”Hey, what are you doing, kid?” Dr. Zhao suddenly noticed Lin Chen and shouted.

”Stop arguing, the old man can still be saved,” Lin Chen said calmly.

”What?” Everyone was taken aback by Lin Chen’s words.

”Kid, who do you think you are? Dr. Zhao is an expert in West City, and he said it’s hopeless. How can you claim otherwise? What a joke,” scoffed Qiao Tai.

Dr. Zhao frowned, ”Young man, elder Qiao has cerebral hemorrhage; the blood has spread throughout his brain. It’s absolutely irrecoverable.”

”Cerebral hemorrhage? You’re mistaken. Elder Qiao was poisoned, that’s why he’s like this,” Lin Chen said coolly.

”Poisoned?” Qiao Xue and those present were stunned.

”That’s impossible. We’ve done detailed tests on elder Qiao; there’s no symptom of poisoning,” Dr. Zhao replied.

Lin Chen snorted, ”That’s because your medical skills are lousy. This toxin can’t be diagnosed by modern equipment.”

As he spoke, Lin Chen glanced at Qiao family’s second and third sons, as they were the most likely to do such a thing.

Qiao Xue also thought of something, her eyes were ice cold, as she looked at Lin Chen, ”Can you really save grandpa?”

Lin Chen nodded, ”Of course. This toxin is insurmountable for regular medicine, but to me, it’s merely child’s play.”

With that, Lin Chen took out silver needles from his pocket.

”You know acupuncture?” Seeing the silver needles in Lin Chen’s hand, Qiao Xue’s eyes lit up.

”Of course.” Lin Chen smiled and took a silver needle from the needle case.

”Stop!”

Qiao Yong suddenly shouted coldly, grabbing Lin Chen’s wrist.

”Second uncle, why are you stopping him from treating grandpa?” Qiao Xue asked coldly.

Qiao Yong snorted coldly, ”This kid is unknown; how can we let him casually stick needles in the old man?”

”Exactly, Qiao Xue, this kid is so young. How could he have profound medical skills? Do you want grandpa, in his dying moments, to endure needle piercing pain?” Qiao Tai said coldly.

Watching her two uncles trying to stop Lin Chen’s treatment, Qiao Xue’s gaze was frosty, ”Second uncle, third uncle, just now Lin Chen said grandpa was poisoned. I’m curious, who would be so heartless to poison grandpa.”

Upon hearing Qiao Xue’s words, Qiao Yong and Qiao Tai’s faces changed.

Qiao Yong steadied himself, ”Don’t listen to that guy’s nonsense; he’s just a fraud. Someone, throw this kid out!”

With Qiao Yong’s order, several guards quickly approached Lin Chen.

”I’d like to see who dares. If anyone stops Lin Chen from treating grandpa, they’ll be the ones harming him,” Qiao Xue shouted with strong presence.

Her words shocked everyone present.

Such an accusation was too serious; no one could bear it.

”Alright, Lin Chen, please hurry and treat grandpa,” Qiao Xue said urgently to Lin Chen.

”If I succeed in rescuing him, is there any reward for me?” Lin Chen held the silver needle, not yet piercing, but smiled.

”What reward do you want?” Qiao Xue said coldly.

”Be my wife,” Lin Chen jested with a smile.

”You!” Qiao Xue bit her lip, her face flushed.

”Just kidding.” Lin Chen chuckled, and his mischievous expression vanished, replaced by seriousness.

Although reluctant, Qiao Yong and Qiao Tai dared not act rashly.

With so many watching, if they continued to interfere, it’d confirm their sinister motives against grandpa.

Lin Chen swiftly pierced a silver needle into the Baihui point of the elder Qiao.

Subsequently, he skillfully inserted needles into multiple points on Qiao Shan’s body.

Everyone was stunned by Lin Chen’s dazzling technique, especially Dr. Zhao, whose eyes were filled with shock.

Lin Chen’s acupuncture skills were beyond what even master herbalists could perform!
