After Breaking Off the Engagement, the Heiress Chases Me to Feed Me Soft Rice - Chapter 2:

Chapter 2: Using Needles to Save a Life.

“Have you lost your mind? That’s the highway toll station ahead. Who would come here to pick someone up?” Xiao Chuyu frowned.

But Lin Feng ignored her completely and strode forward. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from her sight.

“Hmph, a dirt-poor villager like you probably can’t even find a decent job in Nancheng!”

“You dared to trick me with that IOU earlier. When the time comes, I’ll make you kneel and beg this young lady for a bite to eat!”

Xiao Chuyu muttered through gritted teeth.

As if already imagining Lin Feng failing to survive in Nancheng, a faint smile appeared on her lips.

At this moment, at the highway toll station entrance.

A convoy of luxury cars was quietly parked at the entrance. Especially the Rolls-Royce in the center, which attracted the attention of countless drivers.

This was the car of Zhao Tianlong, the richest man in Nancheng!

And Zhao Tianlong himself stood beside the car, looking into the distance expectantly.

Everyone secretly began to speculate. Could it be that some great figure was arriving today, someone important enough that even Zhao Tianlong personally came out of the city to greet them?

At that moment, under the astonished gazes of the crowd, Lin Feng, dressed in plain clothes and carrying a cloth bag, walked up to the Rolls-Royce.

“Please, Mr. Lin, get in the car!”

Zhao Tianlong hurried forward with a humble attitude, bowing respectfully in front of Lin Feng.

This scene left everyone around in disbelief.

The dignified richest man of Nancheng was actually bowing to a young man.

Yet Zhao Tianlong felt no loss of dignity. Instead, he seemed almost honored.

“You’re the one here to pick me up?” Lin Feng asked.

“Yes. The moment Mr. Lin came down the mountain, my Zhao Family received the news. So I came specially to bring Mr. Lin back and hold the wedding with my daughter!” Zhao Tianlong replied.

Only then did Lin Feng remember that Zhao Qingling, one of his fiancées, was Zhao Tianlong’s daughter.

“Get in. I don’t like this arrangement anyway. I also need to discuss the engagement with your Zhao Family.”

“Yes, Mr. Lin!”

Zhao Tianlong personally opened the car door. Only after Lin Feng got in did he follow.

Soon after, the convoy started moving, heading toward Nancheng in grand fashion.

The massive traffic jam at the toll station hadn’t cleared yet, but what had just happened sparked heated discussion among the drivers.

“Did we see that right? The richest man Zhao was actually so respectful to a young man?”

“Who knows what big figure that is? Unfortunately, people like us will never get the chance to know him.”

These words reached Xiao Chuyu’s ears, and she exclaimed in surprise, “Zhao Tianlong was here just now? And he came to pick up some important figure?”

“Either one would bring huge benefits to the Xiao Family if I could get to know them!”

“Damn it, it’s all Lin Feng’s fault! If I hadn’t wasted time looking for him, I might have caught up!”

Xiao Chuyu was filled with regret.

Inside the car.

Lin Feng sat casually, while Zhao Tianlong only dared to sit on half the seat, his body tense.

After hesitating several times, Zhao Tianlong finally heard Lin Feng speak first, “If you have something to say, just say it. After all, I had an engagement with the Zhao Family. If I can help, I will.”

Zhao Tianlong was overjoyed and quickly said, “To be honest, Mr. Lin, my father is already very old, and recently he has fallen seriously ill. I heard that Mr. Lin possesses extraordinary medical skills. I humbly ask you to take a look at my father!”

“Alright.”

Lin Feng agreed immediately.

The marriage contract clearly stated that it was this Old Master Zhao who had arranged the engagement between Lin Feng and Zhao Qingling.

Since Lin Feng intended to cancel the engagement, he naturally needed to inform Old Master Zhao, so he would not stand by and do nothing.

“Thank you, Mr. Lin!”

Zhao Tianlong immediately urged the driver to go faster.

Half an hour later, the Rolls-Royce stopped outside the Zhao Family villa. Led by Zhao Tianlong, the two quickly entered a spacious room.

An elderly man with a head full of white hair lay on the bed. His spirit was weak, his breathing rapid. Anyone could see that he did not have long to live.

At this moment, an old traditional Chinese doctor was performing acupuncture on him.

“Divine Doctor Xue, how is my father?” Zhao Tianlong asked anxiously the moment he entered.

Divine Doctor Xue stopped his movements, sighed, and shook his head. “I’m sorry. Even I am powerless against Old Master Zhao’s illness. I can only rely on my most advanced needle technique and hope for a miracle.”

After speaking, Divine Doctor Xue prepared to continue inserting the needles.

“Stop. Your technique is wrong. Not only will it fail to save him, it will take his life!”

Just as Zhao Tianlong was sinking into despair, Lin Feng, who had followed him in, suddenly spoke to stop him.

Seeing that the one shouting at him was just a young man, Divine Doctor Xue frowned and asked, “Mr. Zhao, who is this?”

Before Zhao Tianlong could answer, Lin Feng stepped forward and said, “Of course I’m here to save him!”

With a casual wave of his hand, Lin Feng instantly removed all the needles that Divine Doctor Xue had just inserted.

“You brat, what are you doing? Stop immediately!”

“My Great Five Elements Needle Technique cannot be interrupted once it starts, or someone will die!”

While speaking, Lin Feng began inserting needles into Old Master Zhao and said calmly, “Your technique is so poor that if you hadn’t said it, I wouldn’t even recognize it as the Great Five Elements Divine Needles.”

“Watch carefully. This is how acupuncture is truly done. Otherwise, don’t disgrace yourself outside and claim to be from the Medicine King lineage. They can’t afford that shame.”

Hearing the words “Medicine King lineage,” Divine Doctor Xue felt as if struck by lightning.

Because his master had once been an apprentice of that lineage, and he himself had only learned a superficial portion of their medical arts.

“How do you know about the Medicine King lineage?” Divine Doctor Xue asked.

“How do I know? Because I am their founding ancestor!” Lin Feng replied indifferently.

One must know that the Medicine King lineage not only revered Lin Feng as their ancestor, even a few casual pointers from him could greatly improve their medical skills.

Let alone someone like Divine Doctor Xue.

At this moment, Lin Feng’s hands moved swiftly as the needles fell one after another. The profound and mysterious Great Five Elements Needle Technique, which Divine Doctor Xue found unfathomable, was executed effortlessly by Lin Feng.

Divine Doctor Xue was completely dumbfounded.

“Pfft!”

Suddenly, Old Master Zhao, who had been unconscious, sat up and spat out a mouthful of black blood.

Immediately afterward, his complexion became rosy at a visible speed. In just a few breaths, he looked no different from a normal person.

“Th-this… Old Master Zhao has really been saved by you!” Divine Doctor Xue stepped forward in disbelief to check his pulse.

Just moments ago, he had declared Old Master Zhao beyond saving, yet now his condition had stabilized, and his pulse was steady.

If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, who would believe that ten minutes earlier, Old Master Zhao had been on the verge of death?

“Father, are you alright?” Zhao Tianlong also stepped forward to check.

“I’m fine. In fact, I feel even younger. Living for a while longer won’t be a problem.”

Hearing this, Zhao Tianlong broke into a wide smile.

At that moment, Divine Doctor Xue suddenly dropped to his knees before Lin Feng and shouted, “Great Ancestor, please accept this disciple’s bow!”
