When they arrived at Xiao Yu's villa, Xiao Yu and his companions got out of their cars. They waited for the elderly Mr. Zhuo and his entourage to disembark. Given Mr. Zhuo’s status and position, every outing was extremely complicated; fortunately, this time he had traveled in a private capacity, otherwise it would have been comparable to a state-level leader's official visit.

The moment their three cars came to a stop, several sturdy young men got out of the two cars ahead and behind. Among these seven or eight young men, two walked towards Mr. Zhuo’s central vehicle while the rest dispersed around Xiao Yu's courtyard, carefully observing every corner.

When Xiao Yu saw their actions, his brows slightly furrowed but quickly relaxed; Mr. Zhuo was his second uncle's great-grandfather and also had some connection with his maternal grandfather, so he didn't want to say anything and could only let them proceed as they pleased. If it were anyone else, Xiao Yu would have already asked them to leave or wouldn’t even receive them.

After these people circled around the corners, they made a gesture towards the two young men standing beside their car.

The moment those young men saw this signal, they opened the car doors. As the doors opened, Mr. Zhuo walked out, followed by another young man and an older middle-aged one carrying a medical kit.

Right after Mr. Zhuo stepped out of the vehicle, the two young men at the side hurriedly extended their hands to support him, but his brows were tightly furrowed and he looked quite displeased.

Despite looking very unwell, Mr. Zhuo didn't say much; instead, he walked towards Xiao Yu who was standing in front of the house.

"Please come in, Mr. Zhuo!" Seeing Mr. Zhuo approaching, Xiao Yu opened the door and said to him.

Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, Mr. Zhuo nodded his head and said to Xiao Yu: "Xiao Yu, I’m causing you trouble." After saying this, he glanced at those who had followed closely behind him.

"Please come in!" Upon hearing Mr. Zhuo’s words, a faint smile appeared on Xiao Yu's face as he spoke again to the elder.

Seeing that Xiao Yu seemed fine with everything, Mr. Zhuo lightly nodded and walked into the house. After they entered, Xiao Yu followed them inside too; meanwhile, those sturdy young guardsmen left only two outside while the rest entered with them.

Xiao Yu invited Mr. ZHU and the Wei army officers to sit on the sofa, while those young men who followed in walked into the room and observed their surroundings before dispersing around the place. Two of them even planned to head upstairs.

Seeing these people’s behavior, Xiao Yu frowned slightly, his face not looking too good; if they had just roamed around in the courtyard he wouldn’t have minded so much, but now that they were still doing it inside the house, it made him feel embarrassed.

Of course, this kind of action would be fine in a regular household and no one would say anything about it. However, Xiao Yu was different; if these people weren’t Mr. ZHU, he’d have kicked them out long ago for acting like this.

Because they had come with Mr. ZHU, though, Xiao Yu couldn’t say a thing and could only let them roam around inside the house.

"All of you get out! Without orders, no one is allowed to enter!" These guards hadn’t done anything wrong, but because they didn’t know where they were, Mr. ZHU sternly ordered these young guards after seeing their behavior, even though Xiao Yu had not said a word.

After hearing Mr. ZHU’s words, the patrolling guards all froze before having no choice but to leave reluctantly when they saw his serious expression.

"Xiao Yu, I’m truly sorry!" After these guards left, Mr. ZHU addressed Xiao Yu.

The moment Mr. ZHU finished speaking, a middle-aged man sitting on the other side carrying a medical bag suddenly froze before shuddering all over. When he looked at Xiao Yu again, his eyes revealed shock.

In his opinion, if Xiao Yu was an offspring from one of Beijing’s families, then it would make sense for Mr. ZHU to be this polite towards him. However, now that he saw how respectfully Mr. ZHU treated Xiao Yu and put them on the same level, giving him adequate respect, everything changed.

It was worth noting that there were only around fifty people in all of China who could make Mr. ZHU treat them with such politeness due to their status and position; this number included national leaders as well as some revolution pioneers. Xiao Yu, on the other hand, was definitely unique among young people.

For this reason alone, the doctor was stunned, secretly wondering what kind of person this youth could be! No matter how he thought about it, though, he couldn’t figure out where Xiao Yu came from.

"Haha, Grandpa Zhu, no worries. Your safety is paramount!" After hearing Mr. ZHU’s words, Xiao Yu chuckled and said.

Xiao Yu finished speaking and stood up, turning to Uncle Zhu again: "Alright, Grandpa, let them keep you company for a while, I'll go prepare the meal!"

After saying this, Xiao Yu addressed Wei Jun and the others once more before carrying the ingredients and herbs towards the kitchen.

In the living room, there were now only Wei Jun and his three companions, along with Uncle Zhu and his personal physician. They sat chatting inside. At that moment, Wei Jun and his friends felt rather reserved; not just now but even when Uncle Zhu got off the car, they had already felt very restrained. The founder of the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine! This was someone they needed to look up to!

Among them, perhaps only Wang Chengzhi knew about Uncle Zhu's background, and it was precisely because he did that he felt even more reserved at this moment.

When Wang Chengzhi applied for the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine back then, his father told him the history of the school. Therefore, he was very familiar with its founder; however, it wasn't a secret among those in power. It's just that Uncle Zhu hadn't visited this school for decades, so no alumni had bothered to inquire about it. If someone were truly interested, they could easily find out.

Thus, regardless of which aspect one considered, Wei Jun and the others were very obedient at present. As for Third Brother and Fifth Brother, their usual arrogance was nowhere to be seen; now they too had the image of well-behaved children.

Although Uncle Zhu seemed very amiable, his presence exuded an air of authority even as he sat still. Especially when giving orders to those guards to leave, there was a sense of military prowess about him.

Therefore, Wei Jun and the others dared not speak much; they would only carefully reply when Uncle Zhu spoke. Yet in no time at all, they had revealed everything about themselves.

When Uncle Zhu heard that Wang Chengzhi's father was the Secretary of the Municipal Committee of Hangzhou City, a trace of surprise appeared on his face. He hadn't expected this very steady-looking young man to also be from an official family.

And when he learned that Wang Chengzhi had chosen to become a doctor despite his background, a smile immediately spread across his face. "Good, good, excellent! To persist in becoming a physician under such circumstances is truly commendable!"

The Old Man couldn't help but marvel; nowadays, how many official descendants were still dedicated enough to focus on one thing Those who could do so within this circle were few and far between. Haven't even Zhu Simiao was steered towards a political career

Although Zhu Simiao was still practicing medicine now, under family arrangement, he was heading down the path of a political career.

Sometimes, one can see a reflection of an adult in a child. Given that he raised such a son, it's likely that the adults in his family are also good people. Moreover, this young man is acquainted with Xiao Yu, so ZHUO Laoshi nodded approvingly at Wang Chengzhi.

Wang Chengzhi never would have imagined that his performance could earn points for his father, making his father's political career smoother than before.

About an hour later, Xiao Yu came out of the kitchen and called them to the dining room.

"Delicious... Fourth Brother, I didn't expect you to have such culinary skills!"

In the dining room, Wang Chengzhi and the others were eating the large pot dishes made by Xiao Yu. They wished they could swallow their tongues, as there was no time for them to even speak a word until after they finished eating and put down their chopsticks. Then, with satisfied expressions, they complimented Xiao Yu.

Not only Wei Jun and the others, but even ZHUO Laoshi didn't make an exception. Although he had eaten many large pot dishes before, this was his first time tasting one made by Xiao Yu. Moreover, as a doctor himself, he naturally could taste the difference in them. Therefore, after finishing eating, ZHUO Laoshi also expressed his admiration.

"Ah... Senior Brother Xiao really lives up to being a Medical God; using just one ingredient of斷腸草 (Duanchangcao), he has reached an extraordinary level with it. Back then, I thought that the recipe for this large pot dish had maximized the efficacy and nature of medicinal herbs, making no one able to cook a better-tasting one than this. However, Senior Brother Xiao's use of斷腸草 (Duanchangcao) actually raised the flavor of this large pot dish to an even higher level!"

After putting down his chopsticks, ZHUO Laoshi expressed his admiration towards Xiao Yu.

Regarding Lao Li's large pot dishes, he knew the recipe as well. The perfect combination of those medicinal herbs left him in awe and respect; whether when learning traditional Chinese medicine from Xiao Yu's grandfather or even now, he believed that this dish had reached an unparalleled level, with no one able to cook a better-tasting one than this. But who would have thought that the recipe for this large pot dish could still be improved upon, with its flavor surpassing the previous version... The next morning, Xiao Yu and the others left in their car early. After having breakfast at a congee shop, they headed towards the Traditional Chinese Medicine University. Today's main event was a debate among students to showcase the vibrant spirit of the school.

When Xiao Yu and the others arrived at the school, ZHUO Laoshi was taken away by President QIAN. They then went to the auditorium where today’s debating contest would begin at half past eight in the morning.

At precisely eight-thirty, President QIAN walked onto the stage again and said: "Dear alumni, we have arranged several debate contests for you today. The purpose is to let you see our school spirit. And also, through these debating contest forms, you will be able to see the level of our students!" (To Be Continued)ven ask questions. If you asked them anything, they would just say, "Wait for the results!"Actually, these rural folks weren’t afraid if the doctor spoke rudely. They just wanted to hear an analysis o...
