Hearing the voice, this charming woman looked at Henric, a surprised look on her face.

"Beauty, we must be fated to meet here. Let''s get to know each other," Henric said again. The
special business card in his hand gleamed golden. It was very eye-catching.
However, she did not receive it. Instead, she smiled faintly and politely rejected him. "Sorry, I don''t
feel well. I require rest."
As she spoke, she leaned into the back of her chair and closed her eyes.
It was an obvious rejection, but Henric did not give up. He continued to stay next to her and said in
solicitous concern, "Beauty, what''s wrong with you? I happen to be a doctor. I can help you."
As soon as he said that, she looked at him again.
The other two middle-aged wealthy businessmen smiled. They thought to themselves that this boy
was too thick-skinned. The beauty just said that she was ufortable, and he promptly replied
that he was a doctor. If the beauty said that she was hungry, this boy would probably say that he
was a chef.
Just as they were secretlyughing at him, Henric took out a set of silver needles and said, "Beauty,
I am not lying to you. I am indeed a doctor, I specialize in traditional Chinese medicine."
"Traditional Chinese medicine!" The beautiful woman seemed to be a little interested.
Henric suddenly became invigorated. He proudly introduced himself. "Beauty, my surname is Cao,
and I am from South Bay City. All my elders are traditional medicine practitioners, and my
grandfather is the famous National Chinese Medical Doctor of South Bay City. He is a famous figure
in the country!"
"Is he really that good?" She asked in surprise.
The two wealthy businessmen frowned even more and kept grumbling to themselves.
"This brat, how dare he brag like that! He even brought the National Chinese Medical Doctor into it."
"D*mn it, he''s pestering and boasting all the while. What if he really wins over that beautiful
woman?"
As they grumbled, the two wealthy merchants could not sit still any longer. They got up and
prepared to battle it out for the beauty''s heart.
Butthen, Henric said, "My grandfather''s name is Lamont Cao. You may not be familiar with his
name, but he has a nickname that you should have heard before. The ''Acupuncture King'' refers to
my grandfather. I, on the other hand, have inherited my grandfather''s skills. I am known as the
Acupuncture Prince."
After saying that, Henric looked at the woman boastfully.
But she had a nk look on her face. She had never heard of that name before.
However, the old couple who had closed their eyes to rest, opened their eyes and asked in surprise,
"The Acupuncture King, Old Master Cao? He was a truly famous figure! Young man, are you really
the descendant of the Acupuncture King?"
Henric took out a jade pendant and replied, "Of course, this is the heirloom of our family. My father
passed it to me. This means that I am the representative of the Acupuncture King from the Cao
family."
The old couple''s eyes lit up when they saw Henric''s jade pendant. They were surprised. "It''s really
the Cao family''s jade pendant. You''re really his descendant!"
"Of course!" Henric had a look of pride on his face.
The old couple immediately came over excitedly. With a hint of pleading, they said, "Acupuncture
Prince, Mr. Cao, we have a stuffy feeling in our chests. Can you take a look at it?"
Hearing that, Henric instinctively frowned and wanted to refuse. But when he was about to speak,
he nced at the beautiful woman next to him. He immediately patted his chest and changed his
tack. "Since we have met on the ne, it must be fate. Since you have asked, of course, I won''t
refuse. So, I''ll diagnose you now."
"Thank you so much, Mr. Cao," the old couple said gratefully.
Henric immediately went forward and felt their pulses. A few minutester, he loosened his hand
and said with a smile on his face, "You two, your condition is actually a fairly simple thing, because
your spleen and lungs are weak, it has caused you to have chest tightness and shortness of
breath."
"Now, I will cure you with my acupuncture. Your symptoms will be relieved immediately."
The old couple looked at each other, then nodded. "Thank you for your help, Mr. Cao."
Then, they let himmence his treatment. It has to be said that Henric was really not lying. As
soon as he took out the needles, his acupuncture skills shocked the few people there. They stared
at him with their eyes wide open.
After a while, he put away the needles.
Excitement suddenly appeared on the old couple''s faces. "We feel much better and much more
comfortable. Thank you so much, Mr. Cao."
With a smile on his face, Henric nced at the charming woman and said to the old couple, "I will
give you two another prescription to nourish your blood, and a way to dispel the weakness inside
your bodies. Follow it for two weeks, and you will bepletely cured."
After that, Henric quickly wrote down the prescription. "A mouthful of Chinese goldthread, three
pieces of sweet wormwood, some mulberry branches..."
The old couple took the prescription and carefully put it away as if it was a precious treasure. They
thanked Henric again.
At this moment, even the two middle-aged wealthy merchants'' attention was grabbed. They looked
over at Henric and seemed to contemte having him treat them too.
At this moment, Fade, who had remained silent, suddenly spoke to the old couple. "Hey, adding
reed roots on your prescription will have an even better effect."
"Uh, this..." The old couple was stunned and looked at Fade with surprise, "Young man, are you
also a traditional Chinese medical practitioner?"
"Yes." Fade nodded and was about to continue speaking.
But Henric stared at him with a gaze like stone and said coldly, "What are you talking about? I wrote
the prescription. No one asked you to interfere!"
Fade frowned and exined, "Your prescription has healing effects, but it also has side effects. If
we add some reed roots to it, the side effects will be eliminated and the prescription will be
perfect. I''m just giving a suggestion."
"Side effect? Suggestions? Are you kidding?" Henric red at Fade. "Who do you think you are?
My family is the royalty of acupuncture, and my grandfather is the National Chinese Medical Doctor.
You have no right to judge my family''s medical skills."
Upon hearing that, Fade could not help frowning. He was about to lose his temper.
At that moment, the old couple spoke up, "Young sirs, don''t quarrel anymore. We would feel terrible
if you two were to quarrel because of us."
Then, they looked at Fade. "Young man, thank you for your kindness. We appreciate it."
They did not say anything else, but their meaning was clear. They epted it, but they were more
inclined to believing Henric.
Since the couple had made their choice, there was no need for Fade to continue exining.
He leaned back in his chair and gently closed his eyes to rest. He did not respond to what Henric
said.
