Future News: My Phone Mutated-Chapter 232 - Let Me Take His Place

“Since when did you suspect Qin Weikang?”

The old man asked the question that he wanted to know the most.

Lin Bai did not expect the old man to be so direct. He could not help but be stunned for a moment. Then, he realized that the old man must have seen through his little thoughts by asking such a question.

The old man must have already known that he was deliberately pretending not to know. In the name of asking for advice, he deliberately made Du Qiming and other Chinese medicine masters say words that had conflicting medicinal properties.

Since the old man had seen through everything, it would be unnecessary for Lin Bai to lie again. Moreover, it would also appear that he was very dishonest and reduce his impression of the old man.

Thus, Lin Bai simply told the truth.

“From the first time I saw Qin Weikang, I had already suspected him.”

Old Master Ye nodded, as if he was not surprised by Lin Bai’s answer.

He continued to ask, “There must be a reason for suspecting him, right?”

“There doesn’t seem to be anything wrong with Qin Weikang’s words and actions at that time. Why do you think that he would harm me?”

Old Master Ye had been in the military for half his life and thought he was quite good at reading people. However, he didn’t see through Qin Weikang’s despicable nature.

On the other hand, Lin Bai could see that something was wrong the first time they met.

Therefore, Old Master Ye really wanted to know if all of this was just a coincidence or if Lin Bai was really better at reading people than he was.

If Lin Bai was already over 50 years old and had such ability to read people, Old Master Ye wouldn’t find it strange. 𝑓𝙧𝘦𝘦we𝘣𝙣𝘰𝘃𝗲l.com

However, Lin Bai was only in his early 20s. It was very unusual for him to have such a sharp and accurate eye for people.

Lin Bai was stumped by the old man’s question.

He really didn’t know how to answer this question.

He couldn’t just tell the old man that he could predict the future, right?

If he said this, the old man would probably send him straight to the mental hospital.

“Hmm... maybe it’s just intuition...”

Lin Bai laughed dryly and gave such a reason that even he didn’t believe it.

Old Master Ye stared into Lin Bai’s eyes and said slowly and calmly,

“No, you’re lying.”

Lin Bai:”...”

When the old man was young, even the top agents of the enemy country had personally interrogated him. How could a lie from an ordinary person deceive his eyes?

However, he did not make things difficult for Lin Bai.

“If you don’t want to say it, you can not say it. But don’t lie to me. I hate it when people lie to me the most.”

“No matter what, it was you who made me realize that there might be something wrong with Qin Weikang. So, I began to secretly watch out for him and investigate him.”

“It’s all thanks to you that I was able to keep my old life. The Ye family will remember this favor.”

The old man said the last sentence with great solemnity.

Lin Bai quickly said, “Grandpa, you’re too kind. I didn’t do anything, let alone owe you a favor.”

“You’ve helped me a lot already. I should be the one thanking you.”

“Actually, I didn’t mean to lie to you just now. I just didn’t know how to explain it.”

“Grandpa, do you believe in fortune-telling? I know a little about it, so when I saw Qin Weikang, I could tell that he had an evil heart, so I was more careful.”

“Actually, it was just a blind chance. I just happened to find the problem of the conflicting effects of the medicine. It was all due to luck.”

Lin Bai changed his explanation.

Although the old man didn’t force him to give a reason, he had already said it, so Lin Bai had to solve the problem.

Fortune-telling was a kind of prediction in a sense.

Therefore, the reason Lin Bai gave this time was not a complete lie, but it did not make old master ye suspicious.

“Face-to-face...”

Old Master Ye muttered and then said, “I never believed in such superstitious things in the past.”

“But now that they’re similar, these things can be passed down for thousands of years, so there may be a pattern and reason for it.”

“Lin Bai, how many other abilities do you have that I don’t Know?”

The old man asked with a smile, his eyes filled with joy and anticipation.

Lin Bai smiled and said, “There might not be anything else for the time being, but there might be more in the future. I quite like learning all sorts of things.”

The old man sighed and said, “I hope my old bones can last a few more years and watch you and Little Mo officially get married and live a good life.”

“I also want to see how many new skills you can have in the future...”

“I just don’t know if I can hold on until then.”

The old man couldn’t help but sigh again.

Lin Bai blurted out without thinking:

“There’s definitely no problem!”

“Grandpa, although you have many old injuries and old illnesses, they are not life-threatening, and it’s not impossible to cure them.”

“Therefore, please don’t say such disheartening words! Not only do you want to see Xiao Mo and I officially get married, but you also have to see our future children with your own eyes!”

The old man obviously didn’t think that he could see the future for such a long time.

“I know how my own body is. Don’t try to make me happy. So many famous people in the medical world have treated me, but they all said that there’s no way to cure me. I’ve long given up hope.”

“As long as I can live for a few more years, no, even if it’s just a year, I will be satisfied.”

Lin Bai was silent, his heart was at war.

Reason told him that it was not a wise decision to reveal his medical attainments too much now.

However, emotionally, he really could not bear to see Old Master Ye being tortured by his illness.

The old man was a meritorious citizen of the country and was also a benefactor who had helped him countless times.

He should have tried his best to ease the old man’s pain.

Lin Bai thought to himself, “If it’s not wise, then it’s not wise. I can’t just watch my benefactor suffer and not care.” 𝘧𝓇𝒆𝗲𝓌𝙚𝙗𝓷o𝘷𝒆𝘭.𝐜𝚘𝒎

After making up his mind, Lin Bai said to the old man,”Grandpa, if you trust me, let me take over as your personal doctor and help you with your health.”

“Although I haven’t been able to remove the shrapnel in your body for the time being, I’m confident that I can control the other old illnesses.”

“If I have more time, it won’t be a problem to completely cure you.”

“Trust me, okay?”

Lin Bai looked into the old man’s eyes and said each word very sincerely.

He believed that with the old man’s eyesight, he would definitely be able to tell that what he said was absolutely true.

He was really very confident.

The old man’s expression gradually turned from surprise to shock.

“... how did you know that I had shrapnel in my body? ! Who told you that?”

Old Master Ye was very sure that he had never mentioned anything about shrapnel to Lin Bai.

Even Yu Jinmo did not know that there were shrapnel remnants in her body, how could Lin Bai know? !
