C931 Self-inflicted Humiliation



C931 Self-inflicted Humiliation

Just now, Patriarch Lu might have accepted his favor because he didn't completely trust Lee Hongtian in his own heart. But now, it's clear that the meridian you yourself described is normal, and when you investigated Lu Qianqiu's condition previously, it was only a meridian cutting. Why now, you're saying that it's an old method, so why can't you count it?    

    

Even if you are someone from the Imperial Physician Pavilion, and even if you don't want to lose face, you still have to at least take face, no? Aren't you afraid of angering the masses by targeting them so blatantly?    

    

Thinking to this, Patriarch Lu cupped his hands together and patted Lee Hongtian's shoulder, saying: "This little brother, many thanks for treating my daughter and is unable to repay her. I ask that your subordinates take these things. Although the courtesy is small, at least thank you for your kind intentions."    

    

After saying that, Patriarch Lu waved his hand and ordered people to bring the reward that they had prepared a long time ago. A whole three big boxes, once opened, were filled with the materials to refine pills and pellets, as well as some spirit stones and Medicine Pill resources.    

    

Seeing this scene, Lee Hongtian shook his head and said: "Patriarch Lu, to tell you the truth, I just accepted Second Mr Mei's request and came to your Lu Manor to know that Miss Lu is only a request. As for these rewards, I am not interested, so you should keep them.    

    

Then, Lee Hongtian pulled out the arm that was held by Patriarch Lu, turned around and looked at Patriarch Lu, saying coldly: "Since you say 'Weng Wen Qie' is an old method, there is no end to it. How can I prove that Miss Lu's body has recovered to be healthy?"    

    

As his voice fell, the true energy within Lee Hongtian's body gushed out. The pressure of his Deification Stage cultivation was revealed without a doubt, and the atmosphere in the room became more and more tense.    

    

His lips quivering, Apothecary Wu swallowed his saliva and said, "Naturally, it was Miss Lu who spoke the truth after she woke up."    

    

Just as he finished speaking, Apothecary Wu wished he could find a hole to burrow into. How did his brain grow? Was it eaten by a dog? Why would he say such foolish words?    

    

From this moment onwards, Patriarch Lu began to hate these alchemists under the Imperial Physician Pavilion from the bottom of his heart.    

    

Even though they didn't have a good impression of each other, every family would use it sooner or later when they were sick. Therefore, it was not bad for them to put up with it.    

    

But now, there seemed to be no need for this!    

    

Thinking up to here, Patriarch Lu pulled on Lee Hongtian and said: "Nephew, my daughter's health is already fine, I still have to thank you, how about it in the past, I will be the host, you stay in the Lu Family to rest for a few days, when my daughter wakes up, we can see her savior, how about it?"    

    

At this point, Apothecary Wu immediately understood the situation he was in. It turned out that there was Patriarch Lu between Lee Hongtian and him. But now, it seemed that Patriarch Lu was completely on Lee Hongtian's side.    

    

Since that was the case, why was he still staying here? Aren't you ashamed of yourself?    

    

Thus, Apothecary Wu clasped his hands and said to Patriarch Lu, "Patriarch Lu, I still have matters to attend to, so I will take my leave first."    

    

Hearing that, Patriarch Lu waved his hand nonchalantly, then turned around and chatted with Lee Hongtian.    

    

Seeing this, the veins on Apothecary Wu's forehead stood out and his expression became increasingly unsightly.    

    

If it was in the past, when he left, Patriarch Lu would always smile along with him and send a bunch of resources to him. But what about now? She didn't even want to look at him!    

    

He was no better than a dog at losing his power!    

    

As he thought of this, Apothecary Wu gave Lee Hongtian a vicious glare before leaving the Lu Manor in a fit of rage.    

    

Before leaving, Lee Hongtian added fuel to the fire: "Apothecary Wu, another day, when Miss Lu wakes up, I will have her personally go to Imperial Physician Pavilion to tell you that her body has fully recovered!"    

    

Hearing this, Apothecary Wu gritted his teeth and said, "Then I'll be troubling you!"    

    

After Apothecary Wu left, Patriarch Lu glanced at his disappearing back in disdain and said sarcastically, "Nephew, it's all thanks to you that I was able to survive. Otherwise, my life would have been in danger with this useless person!"    

    

"Patriarch Lu's words are a bit wrong. Even though Apothecary Wu couldn't cure Miss Lu this time, he still helped you guys a lot, didn't he?" "Humans are always satisfied with what they have."    

    

Right after he said that, Patriarch Lu's face reddened and he coughed a few times to hide his embarrassment. He thought to himself: "This kid, whether it's strength, personality, or looks, he's the best choice. How did he grow a mouth!"    

    

Of course, Lee Hongtian wasn't trying to defend Apothecary Wu. It was just that he felt disdain towards Patriarch Lu's action of adding insult to injury. After a simple beating, it was already the other party's business to be able to understand the situation.    

    

After thinking for a moment, Lee Hongtian took a deep breath and said, "Patriarch Lu, since Miss Lu's health is fine, I am busy with work, so I will take my leave first."    

    

With that, without waiting for Patriarch Lu's reply, Lee Hongtian turned and prepared to leave the Lu Manor.    

    

Seeing this, Patriarch Lu quickly grabbed Lee Hongtian's arm and said, "Nephew, no matter how busy you are, you have to work together. Why don't you stay in my mansion for a few days?"    

    

Saying that, a light flashed across Patriarch Lu's eyes.    

    

As he had said before, there were not many people like Lee Hongtian who were outstanding in all aspects. Since his own woman had recovered and had reached the age of marriage, wouldn't it be great if he could drink and marry this young man in front of him?    

    

With this thought, Patriarch Lu immediately put it into action. Without waiting for Lee Hongtian's response, he waved his hand and ordered his servants to prepare dinner.    

    

Seeing this scene, the corner of Lee Hongtian's mouth slightly curled up, revealing a demonic smile.    

    

"From the looks of it, he did not come with good intentions. Lee Hongtian, this Patriarch Lu can't be wanting you to marry into Lu Family, hahaha!"    

    

Hearing his words, Lee Yuv laughed loudly and said.    

    

"Go go, go. What do you mean by not marrying into the family? You know my character, how can I allow myself to be manipulated by others?" As for this banquet, it's not bad to attend. After all, I've been busy the entire day, so I don't have to pay for it due to Second Mr Mei. However, I still have to eat and reward myself. "    

    

"Reward?" "Hehe, I'm just afraid that this celebration will turn into a Hongmen feast in the end!"    

    

"What Hong Gate banquet? If I want to leave, does it mean that someone with Lu Family can stop me?"    

    

Thinking about this, Lee Hongtian sneered, nodded and said, "That's good, I'm also hungry. Let's leave after dinner."    

    

It was not because Lee Hongtian was gluttonous. It was just that the separation of his soul had placed a great burden on him previously. Although eating would not solve the problem, this feeling of being full would still make Lee Hongtian feel at ease.    

    

After getting a response, Patriarch Lu loudly laughed and hurriedly brought Lee Hongtian into the banquet hall.
