Hearing the commotion, Jiang Fen and Luo Shuangshuang quickly composed themselves, instantaneously adopting worried expressions as they looked toward the direction of the staircase.
The man in the white lab coat, carrying a medicine box, descended the stairs, followed by a woman.
The woman was clad in a dark, retro qipao, her elegance and nobility on full display.
Upon closer inspection, it was evident that her face was fraught with anxiety, her brows knitted with concern.
Despite her troubled appearance, it could not conceal the demeanor and grace of the Matriarch of the Yu Family.
This woman was none other than the elder sister of the Luo Family head, the Matriarch of Jiang City’s foremost family, the Yu Family, and Luo Fenghe’s aunt, Luo Jing.
As soon as Luo Ning, the head of the Luo Family, saw Luo Jing escorting the doctor downstairs, he sprang to his feet, looking at Luo Jing with a jittery apprehension, "Sister, how is Feng He?"
Even though his mouth asked after his eldest daughter’s welfare, his tone revealed more fear of Luo Jing than concern for his daughter.
Luo Jing, of course, picked up on this. She gave Luo Ning a brief, indifferent glance and snorted coldly, ignoring the man’s question.
Seeing this, the man sheepishly raised his hand and touched his nose, standing there looking both meek and useless.
Luo Jing did not bother with Luo Ning but escorted the doctor in the white lab coat to the door, and with a face full of worry, she asked, "Doctor Luo, do you know of any doctor who might be able to cure Feng He’s strange illness? If you do, I ask that you kindly recommend them."
Doctor Luo, upon hearing Luo Jing’s words, immediately responded, "There are many doctors more skilled than I am, but they are not easy to summon. Those famous divine doctors appear and disappear unpredictably; it’s hard to even catch their shadows, let alone invite them."
"Is there really no way?" Luo Jing, anxious and unwilling to give up on even a sliver of hope, implored, "I ask Doctor Luo to offer some advice. If my niece’s condition can be cured, both the Yu and Luo Families will be sure to show our great appreciation."
Doctor Luo furrowed his brow, thought for a while, and then after a long pause, he let out a wry smile and said, "The doctors I know have all been consulted by Mr. Gu already, I really can’t think of anyone else."
Doctor Luo was aware of how many renowned doctors Gu Huaijin had sought out to treat Luo Fenghe’s illness.
He had surmised that he certainly couldn’t cure Luo Fenghe and thus hadn’t planned on coming.
But he couldn’t withstand Luo Jing’s persistent entreaties, and in the end, he relented and came.
Luo Jing felt a wave of disappointment hearing this, "Then, thank you for your efforts, Doctor Luo. Xiao Lin, take Doctor Luo to his hotel."
As Luo Jing spoke, a car pulled up in front of Doctor Luo. He opened the car door and was about to get in when he suddenly halted his movement to enter. He turned back to Luo Jing and said, "Recently, the Yan City Zhong Family has engaged a Divine Doctor Xiao called Xiao Yixue. It’s said that her medical skills are extremely proficient. If Madam Yu truly cannot find anyone else, perhaps she could invite this Divine Doctor Xiao to take a look. It may be worth a try."
Luo Jing’s interest was piqued when she heard this, "Divine Doctor Xiao?"
It sounded somewhat familiar.
She must be a renowned physician.
"It’s said that she’s a divine doctor listed on the Heavenly Doctors List," Doctor Luo declared before getting into the car.
As the car drove off, Luo Jing remained standing in place, lost in thought.
The Heavenly Doctors List?
As the Matriarch of the Yu Family, she was naturally aware of the existence of the network and knew of the Heavenly Doctors List on the net.
Any individual on the Heavenly Doctors List was undoubtedly a master of medical science.
Even being ranked No. 99 on that list would count as a leading figure in the medical community.
That would be none other than the indisputable Divine Doctor everyone speaks of.
Luo Jing stood there for a long while, and then, turning around, she went back into the house and returned to the living room. She made a phone call.
The call was directed to the Yu Family.
Although the Luo Family was one of the Four Great Families of Jiang City, in the past two years, the family fortunes had almost completely been squandered by the good-for-nothing Luo Ning. Even though they were still barely counted among the Four Great Families, were it not for the marriage alliance with the Yu Family, they would have fallen from that rank long ago.
The Zhong Family was undeniably a great aristocratic family of Yan City, among the Four Great Families of Yan City.
If the Luo Family hoped to engage the services of the divine doctor recruited by the Zhong Family, their own influence wouldn’t suffice, and they would require the Yu Family to step forward.
