Rebirth: My Healer Wife Owns Superpowers-Chapter 198: What’s the matter with you, how dare you neglect the Divine Doctor like this?

Chapter 198 -198: What’s the matter with you, how dare you neglect the Divine Doctor like this?

Qi Yue was sitting at a table close to these people; the lake breeze flowed through the window, and she could hear every single word clearly.

These snippets of conversation, combined with the internal details of the Shen Family that Qu Wei had gathered, suddenly sparked a feeling in her that someone was manipulating and scheming behind the scenes.

However, Shen Zikuang had yet to appear, which somewhat irritated her.

Initially, she had thought highly of Shen Zikuang’s capabilities and wanted to cooperate with him to take over the medicinal market in Beiyuan and three other countries.

But she had not expected this guy to hide away after facing a setback, without so much as a word to her, his co-tenant.

Was all her time and effort over the past few months in vain?

Thus, she decided she would go to find Shen Zikuang first thing the next morning.

Early the next day, while Qi Yue was eating breakfast, Shopkeeper Feng barged in with a woman in her twenties, looking panicked.

Before Qi Yue could inquire what was happening, the woman knelt in front of her with a thud.

“Miss Qi, Divine Doctor Qi, I beg you, please save my husband!”

Already somewhat displeased about the medicine factory collaboration, Qi Yue’s irritation grew when her breakfast was interrupted.

She frowned and turned to Shopkeeper Feng, her voice cold. “What’s going on? Who is this woman?”

Shopkeeper Feng hurriedly explained, “Miss Qi, this lady is the wife of the eldest Shen son. My young master was attacked by someone with a blackjack. You must save him!”

The wife of the eldest Shen son? Li Qiaoniang?

Qi Yue’s mind quickly recalled the related information she had collected.

From her name alone, it was clear that Li Qiaoniang was not a lady from a noble family.

Li Qiaoniang was a herb gatherer.

At the age of 20, Shen Zikuang went to the mountains to collect some herbs and happened upon Li Qiaoniang, deeming her a heavenly beauty and the only one for him.

Li Qiaoniang also took a fancy to him, and they quickly settled on the matter.

However, Li Qiaoniang’s parents were not willing to give their blessing, and to cut off Shen Zikuang’s intentions, they deliberately demanded a formal betrothal with six marriage mediators before they would allow Li Qiaoniang to marry into the Shen Family as a legitimate wife.

To everyone’s surprise, the energetic young Shen Zikuang agreed to their terms.

What followed was beyond Li Qiaoniang’s parents’ expectations; Shen Zikuang fulfilled all formalities and not a single rite was omitted.

Li Qiaoniang’s parents could no longer object and gave their daughter away in marriage to him.

Now here Li Qiaoniang was, neglecting the patient at home and instead pleading with her, an indication of the urgency of the situation, fearing that she might refuse if someone else came for help.

With this thought, Qi Yue didn’t care about her breakfast and immediately stood up.

“Let’s go, tell me everything while we are on our way. What condition is he in now?”

Through Li Qiaoniang’s tearful narration, she gained a rough understanding of Shen Zikuang’s condition.

Last night, Shen Zikuang was found collapsed by Dongjiang Lake, nearly dead.

After being brought back, he had been unconscious the entire time.

His head and face were swollen, one arm was broken, and both legs were limp.

The previous night, Li Qiaoniang had summoned several doctors, all of whom concluded there was no cure and prepared her for the worst. Even if by some luck he survived, he would be crippled.

“Divine Doctor Qi, my husband cannot die, if anything happens to him, how am I supposed to live with the children?”

“Divine Doctor Qi, my husband often praised your unparalleled medical skills, you must save him!”

Li Qiaoniang was dressed in plain white, her hair disheveled, her eyes red and swollen from crying all night.

They say adversity reveals true feelings; it appeared that the wife of the great Shen son was sincere about Shen Zikuang.

For a woman to be like this in her middle years was indeed rare.

Qi Yue made no promises but assured her that she would do her utmost to save him.

Quickly, the two of them arrived at the Shen Family’s residence.

True to their reputation as Dongjiang’s wealthiest family, fragrant scents enveloped them the moment they entered the compound.

To say that every ten steps revealed a different scene, and each step offered a view, was no exaggeration.

Of course, Qi Yue had no time to appreciate the surroundings, and following Li Qiaoniang’s lead, they reached a courtyard and soon saw Shen Zikuang lying in bed.

As she had expected, Shen Zikuang’s body bore no spot untouched by injury; only his faintly flaring nostrils indicated he was still alive.

With keen eyesight and a wealth of experience, a scene gradually unfolded in Qi Yue’s mind.

Last night, feeling upset, Shen Zikuang had a little drink and staggered home alone after leaving the tavern.

Suddenly, no fewer than seven or eight men burst out of the darkness.

One of them threw a cloth bag over his head and fiercely kicked him to the ground.

The bag was so tight he was almost strangled to death.

Countless fists, feet, and clubs mercilessly descended upon his entire body, even his head was struck several times with a stick.

The attackers knew martial arts, were aware of the human body’s vulnerable points, and hit hard, yet controlled their strength, not letting him die.

The people who hit him were ruthless, apparently not intending to kill but rather wanting Shen Zikuang to disappear from the Dongjiang medical community.

This was simply torture!

The aggressors were utterly inhuman!

Qi Yue frowned and immediately fed Shen Zikuang a unique pill, then once more performed the Twelve Ghost Gate Needles.

Combining the Stimulation Technique, the Twelve Ghost Gate Needles could indeed be called divine.

As soon as the needle was withdrawn, Shen Zikuang awoke from his coma.

The moment he saw Qi Yue, he tried excitedly to get up, but his broken limbs made it impossible for him to move.

“Qi… Miss, I… I’m sorry…”

His back teeth had been knocked out, making his speech somewhat wheezy, but one could still make out what he was saying.

Seeing her husband alive again, Lady Li was so happy she cried and laughed at the same time.

“Husband, you’ve finally woken up!”

With that, she threw herself down at the bedside, weeping.

At this moment, two boys around the ages of seven or eight and a girl about five or six rushed in.

All three children shouted ‘Daddy’ and also lay at Shen Zikuang’s bedside, crying incessantly.

In such a situation, Qi Yue decided not to proceed with a deeper examination and withdrew to give the family of five a moment to reunite.

However, she didn’t remain idle, secretly communicating with the medical assistant in her space, instructing it to prepare a high-grade pill for trauma injuries according to her orders.

With Shen Zikuang’s injuries so severe, ordinary trauma medicine would not suffice.

At this time, a noisy commotion of footsteps approached from outside, followed by someone running in to report that the elder Shen had arrived.

Shen Wanzhen was not alone; he was accompanied by his second wife Murong Xueyu, and following them were his two younger sons, Shen Zifang and Shen Ziao.

Murong Xueyu had a pretty name, but in person, she was quite ordinary.

To call her an ugly woman wouldn’t be too much of an overstatement.

Her marriage to Shen Wanzhen as his primary wife was likely due to the Murong Family’s power in the political sphere.

As soon as they entered, their gaze fixed on Shen Zikuang, who was lying in bed.

Murong Xueyu and her two sons merely looked on from a distance with cold expressions.

But Shen Wanzhen quickly took several steps forward to the bedside.

“Kuangkuang, how are you feeling? Have you seen a doctor?”

Lady Li hurriedly stood up to recount the situation and introduced Qi Yue.

In an instant, everyone’s attention turned to Qi Yue.

Especially Murong Xueyu, who upon seeing Qi Yue, immediately perked up as if injected with vigor, her eyes gleaming.

“Ah, so it’s Divine Doctor Qi!”

Her face lit up with surprise, an exaggerated grin spreading across her old face, as if she and Qi Yue were long acquainted.

“My lord, you don’t have to worry now. My brother said that Divine Doctor Qi is the most incredible doctor he has ever seen, Kuangkuang will definitely be fine!”

As she spoke, she walked over ingratiatingly.

Seeing Qi Yue sitting alone off to the side, without even a cup of tea, Murong Xueyu immediately shouted,

“You people who manage the house, what are you thinking, daring to neglect the Divine Doctor like this?”
