He was handsome and suave, extraordinary by birth!
He was a master at medicine, skillful and competent!
He was even more acclaimed as the cleanest and purest heir in the history of the Healing Hall, known as the killer of female students, the nemesis of young wives!
In the description and introduction of his own grandfather, he was simply the incarnation of perfection!
However, what Su Qianxue did not expect was that when Qin Chuan truly appeared before her eyes, he would actually present such an extremely unkempt image!
He was wearing a perfectly replicated white Nike sports T-shirt on his upper body. His pants were a pair of jeans that had been washed to the point of fading. At the hem of his trousers, one could even see many yellow mud spots.
What Su Qianxue found more unbearable was that he was wearing a pair of Liberation shoes that were almost worn through on his feet, and there was even a snake skin bag hanging on his shoulder.
This appearance was not even as good as the rural laborers who came into the city to work. Where was the taste of being handsome and suave? The only thing that somewhat matched the adjectives used earlier was that this young man indeed had a very fair complexion.
But, this was too outrageous!
Could the old man have been deceived?
Su Qianxue stared at the young man in front of her, who had a bashful smile on his face, and tentatively asked, "You, you are Qin Chuan?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Chuan shyly smiled and then nodded, "I am Qin Chuan, nice to meet you for the first time."
Once she confirmed that he was indeed the person she was looking for, Su Qianxue suddenly felt that her world had been violently shocked.
While she was still in a daze, Qin Chuan was also sizing up the beautiful woman standing before him.
Su Qianxue put a lot of thought into her outfit today. She wore a silk blouse adorned with green tassels on her upper body, and a midi skirt on the lower side.
Her appropriately applied makeup adds much to her beauty, making her a delightful sight to behold.
Before his arrival in Pearl City, Qin Chuan had already unearthed plenty of useful intel.
His current position was within the Su family, a family with extensive influence in Pearl City.
Together with the Li, Zhou, and Situ families, they constitute the four major clans of this precious city in China.
He was also well-informed about Su Qianxue's identity.
She was the young mistress of the Su family and the elder daughter of the current patriarch, Su Hongguo. As for the patient whom Qin Chuan was invited to treat this time, she was her younger sister, Su Xinyue.
There were also many narratives about Su Xinyue’s illness circulating amongst the public.
Some said she was born with an incurable disease, while others whispered that she was possessed by evil spirits. Regardless, the Su family had invested heavily in hiring countless medical experts to treat her, all returning fruitless in the end.
However, Qin Chuan held a different point of view.
He had heard that Su Xinyue had first fallen sick seven years ago. Coincidentally, in that same year, Su Qianxue’s second uncle mysteriously disappeared.
Given the strategic dating of these events, Qin Chuan was convinced that some profound connection existed between the two incidents.
Perhaps, Su Xinyue's peculiar disease was related to the disappearance of her second uncle!
Of course, all these were still just Qin Chuan's personal speculation...
Su Qianxue had by now regained her composure. However, when her gaze fell upon Qin Chuan again, she felt dizzy, and said, "This can't be right, are you sure you're not just someone else with the same name as the person I'm looking for? Are you really Qin Chuan, the famous doctor from World Salvation Hall?"
In response, Qin Chuan modestly smiled and said, "I am the Qin Chuan you were searching for, and indeed, Su Master invited me here to treat your sister’s illness."
Hearing his words, Su Qianxue looked at him skeptically, doubt filled her eyes. "You really know medicine? No matter how I look at you, I don't think you resemble a doctor."
Many renowned experts had been hired by the Su family before. The youngest among them was over forty years old.
However, Qin Chuan appeared to be at most twenty years old. No matter how Su Qianxue looked at him, she felt somewhat unconvinced.
"Of course, I can cure Miss Su's illness."
"Otherwise, Su Laos wouldn't have invited me from afar."
Qin Chuan projected a strong confidence when he uttered these words.
In terms of medical skills, he considered himself no less than those so-called experts.
The sole heir of the Jishi Hall, Qin Chuan began to cultivate the "Great Profound Classic," a miracle book passed down from ancient times, under his master's guidance since childhood. The book contained robust medical skills and the paramount way of cultivation.
At the age of three, he started to strengthen his physique by immersing himself in medicinal baths. At the age of ten, he successfully cultivated vital energy, and by twelve, his cultivation had stepped directly into the middle phase of the Acquired Realm.
Martial arts cultivation is divided into the Acquired Realm and the Innate Realm, with the Monk's Realm higher up.
As for the Acquired Realm, it is divided into three minor stages: luminal energy, hidden energy, and transformative energy.
At present, the twenty-year-old Qin Chuan has reached the transformative energy stage, which is the stage of Acquired Realm's perfection. Anyone who reaches this state can be called a martial art master!
Furthermore, when he broke into the transformative energy stage, he also opened his Martial Dao Third Eye, an ability many dreams of having!
Known as the technique that lets you see through everything, it is indeed an incredible skill!
With numerous powerful methods, if Qin Chuan still couldn't cure Su Xinyue's illness, he might as well kill himself by crashing into a tofu block.
Feeling his confidence, Su Qianxue was somewhat surprised.
However, she quickly calmed herself down and spoke, "You better not lie to me. If you do, even if you manage to pass my grandfather's test, I won't let you off easily."
"I only have one sister, and I don't want anything bad to happen to her."
Upon hearing her words, Qin Chu suddenly asked with an odd expression, "Did you also speak to the other doctors like this before I arrived? No wonder your sister's illness couldn't be cured. With your attitude, who do you think would wholeheartedly try to save her?"
"What do you mean by that?" Su Qianxue’s expression gradually turned cold as she asked.
"Take it literally. If you can't understand, I won't blame you either." Qin Chu replied with a grin, "Also, I want to tell you something. I suddenly don't want to help your sister anymore."
"Please tell Mr. Su for me that I'm leaving."
With that said, he made a move to turn around.
"Stop right there!" Su Qianxue hastily called him to a halt, then said angrily, "Are you mocking our Su Family?"
"No, I just need to be treated fairly." Qin Chu responded with a smile.
Upon hearing his words, Su Qianxue was stunned once again.
The sharpness that Qin Chu just suddenly revealed left her in a daze.
It wasn't until now that Su Qianxue finally realized, Qin Chu wasn't as easy to bully as he seemed!
Beneath his shy, coy facade, a dark heart was decidedly hidden!
He had manipulative strategies up his sleeve!
That was Su Qianxue's evaluation of Qin Chu after their first meeting.
