Doctor Clairvoyant - Chapter 16 - Medical Conference

Proofread by May Zou

Liu Xingming made a cup of coffee and waited for another while, but he didn’t expect that the fatty would directly call him.

He answered the phone with excitement and laughed, “Hi, Fatty, you have taught the buster a lesson, haven’t you?”

“Mr. Liu, wh-where are you? I… I w-want…” The fat man stammered.

“What are you stammering about? Put it clearly.” Liu Xingming said sourly.

The fat man was surrounded by the police, with a few guns at his head, how could he not stutter? He took a deep breath, and then said as ordered by the police, “Mr. Liu, I want to see you. Where are you? Can I come over?”

“Oh, I see, you must want to get your reward. Don’t be ashamed to tell. I’m in the office right now. Be quick to bring your brothers and get your reward now.”

Liu Xingming had thought the fatty was going to tell him something else. After saying a few words he hung up. He was in an amiable mood immediately, thinking that when the fatty came, he must lend an attentive ear to him about what a lesson Lin Qi had been taught. What’s more, he had specifically ordered the fat man to take and store a few photos of the incidence.

Just when Liu Xingming was fantasizing how Lin Qi was beaten black and blue, the door was kicked open with a sudden bang.

“Who’s that? Didn’t I tell you to knock on my door first before getting into my office…” There was a halt in his words and Liu Xingming suddenly froze.

He saw the fat man came in dejectedly, and it was he whose face was black and blue and swollen like a pig’s head.

What was going on here? Wasn’t it Lin Qi who was beaten like that?

Liu Xingming was still surprised while several policemen broke into the door. Not allowing him to speak, they took hold of Liu Xingming, and clamped handcuffs around his wrists.

“What are you doing? Why do you arrest me? What offence was I accused of?” Liu Xingming shouted.

A police captain came out and said, “Don’t you have any idea about what you have done?”

“What have I done? I didn’t do anything.” Liu Xingming said with a guilty conscience.

The police captain flared up, “Liu Xingming, we were right on the spot when the fatty called you. Now the police suspect you of being the chief arsonist. Besides, these men are all suspects in murders, and you have been connected so closely that you must be investigated.”

“What, what has happened…?” Liu Xingming stumbled and showed an expression of complete disbelief.

“Don’t you know what has happened? By the way, they have already confessed that you hired them for a murder. Come with us.” the police took the stunned Liu Xingming in the police car.

At this time Liu Xingming finally became aware of the situation and realized that he had offended the wrong man, so this time he had gone for wool and come home shorn. But he could only close his eyes in despair and felt regretful.

After Lin Qi returned to the university, he made a phone call to his grandfather to tell him that he was going to remit him some money.

Now he became rich, he would certainly fulfil the moral obligation to look after his grandfather first, it was he who had brought him up.

Whereas Lin Qi’s grandfather was shocked speechless at once to be informed of the huge sumof remittance..

They could never see so much money all their life in that poor and remote village, you know.

There was silence for a long time on the other side of the line, then his grandfather suddenly said in a stern tone, “Kid, we are poor, but we are living with the highest integrity. And you are the descendant of medicine master. How can you behave in such a hanky-pankyway. Give the money back quickly!”

“Grandpa, I didn’t behave in a hanky-pankyway. The money is clean.” Lin Qi was dazed for a second and quickly explained.

“Humph, the Lins has been doctors for generations, but you bring discredit on the Lin family. How can you face our forebears? Won’t you admit that you have gone wrong?” His Grandfather spoke rather sternly, who had always taught Lin Qi the utmost truth of medical principles since Lin Qi’s childhood.

Under his influence, Lin Qi had learned a lot of things, which he borne in mind since then. He said in seriousness, “Grandpa, I earned the money by selling an antique. What’s more, I have also earned a house now; I’m just going to take you here for a tour.”

But his grandfather was by no means convinced by Lin Qi that he had earned so much money all at once. He scolded him angrily, “Kid, if today you don’t confess that you are in the wrong, then I won’t recognize you as my grandson, and there’ll be no such person as you in Lin family!”

“Grandpa, I really didn’t do anything wrong. You’ll know it when I bring you here…” Now really Lin Qi couldn’t wash himself clean even if he jumped into the Yellow River. (Chinese saying meaning couldn’t make oneself believed that he didn’t do anything wrong)

“Come on, kid, behave correctly, but don’t aim too high. Do you understand? Well, I’ve said enough. Call me when you’ve introspected about your behaviour.” Then the grandfather hung up.

Looking at the phone, Lin Qi was at a loss what to do: cry or laugh.

Both his grandfather and he were used to living a poor life. In their small village, his grandfather only earned a small income from treating the villagers. Now they suddenly owned millions of RMB, perhaps it was difficult for his grandfather to take it for a short while.

Lin Qi could do nothing but to contact with a paternal aunt who lived in the county in his hometown. Although it was far away from their village, she visited Lin Qi’s grandpa at intervals and took care of him. So Lin Qi decided to credit her account.

When the aunt sent him her card number, Lin Qi first credited her account with the first sum of a million yuan, and asked her to build a bigger house for his grandfather so that he could live more comfortably. He also promised that he would send a fixed sum every month from then on to ensure that his grandfather would live better.

After finishing these, Lin Qi took a bath in the dormitory, and then practiced Hunyuan Zhenqi Pith once.

At the dawn next morning, Lin Qi felt fresh and energetic all over. The Hunyuan Zhenqi Pith could not only help one to improve his health and build up his strength, but also could help him practice acupuncture.

Around eight o ‘clock, the landline phone in the dormitory began ringing.

Landline phones were standard configurations for each dormitory; but now that almost everyone had a cell phones, these landline phones were rarely used.

Lin Qi was feeling strange while picking it up and there came Jiang Ruoqing’s voice. It turned out that she had searched for Lin Qi’s dorm phone number through the university.

Till now Lin Qi had recollected that he had promised her to attend the medical conference today. He said hastily, “Sorry, I got up a little later, I’ll immediately take a taxi to the medical conference.”

“Never mind. Well, where are you now?” Jiang Ruoqing asked.

“Still at the university. But I’ll start off at once. There should be time for me to get there.” Lin Qi was a bit sheepish. After all, he had promised it yesterday, but he almost forgot it.

“You are at the university, … then go to the campus gate and wait for me. I’ll pick you up there.”

“Please don’t bother so much. I can…” Lin Qi was really embarrassed.

“It’s ok. I’m going in the same direction. Besides, it’s rush hour now. It’s hard to get a taxi or a subway. Wait there. I’ll be there right away.”

Before Lin Qi spoke, he heard the roar of the cars on the other side of the line and Jiang Ruoqing hung up.

So, Lin Qi carried his bag and came to the campus gate.

It was the early class time then. Many teachers and students were bustling in and out of the gate.

While Lin Qi came over, a lot of people who recognized him and pointed at him, talking about yesterday’s incident when he handed in his internship certificate.

Lin Qi pretended not to hear all these gossips. While waiting, he took out a copy of medical book from his bag and began to read it intently.

The knowledge in the traditional Chinese medicine textbooks was quite different from that in his old heirloom book, but the theory of integrated Chinese and western medicine was very inspiring. Lin Qi read it with relish.

With a squeal of car brakes, an Audi suddenly stopped in front of him. Looking up, Lin Qi saw the window rolled down and a handsome face showed up, “Lin Qi, what are you doing sitting here?”

“Hello, Senior Jiang Feng! Well, I’m here waiting for someone…”

Lin Qi responded and looked down to go on his reading.

This was the senior man in the news in Jinhai University. He had excellent grades and ranked top three every year. And because of his handsome appearance, he was honored as the first great talent of Jinhai University.

But since Lin Qi attended Jinhai University, he seemed to have surpassed this legendary senior in grades. Not knowing why, every time to meet him, Lin Qi always felt an inexplicable hostility towards him.

Jiang Feng snorted coldly and waved, “Stop waiting. Today, I, your senior, will take you to the medical conference to enlighten you and widen your horizons.”
