172: Chapter 172: Change of Attitude 172: Chapter 172: Change of Attitude Ten minutes later, Wu Xiaoyu finally removed the silver needles from his body.

Bai Kainan, who hadn’t had time to dress, couldn’t stop praising, “It’s amazing!

Just a few pricks, and all the discomfort in my stomach is gone!”

Bai Yun was naturally ecstatic when she saw this.

She held onto Wu Xiaoyu’s arm and thanked him, “Xiaoyu, thank you so much!”

Bai Kainan was a bit taken aback to see his granddaughter naturally holding Wu Xiaoyu’s arm.

What was their relationship?

When Wu Xiaoyu applied acupuncture to Bai Kainan, he merely activated his damaged nerves and alleviated his symptoms of acid reflux and burning sensation.

However, he didn’t cure his ulcer.

Feeling somewhat guilty about Bai Yun’s gratitude, he quickly pulled away from her.

“Don’t get too excited.

I only relieved your grandfather’s symptoms; I haven’t cured him completely!” Wu Xiaoyu explained.

Upon hearing this, Bai Kainan and Bai Yun looked serious.

Not cured completely?

Didn’t he say he could cure it entirely?

What conditions was he going to bring up?

“Don’t worry!

If you can cure my grandfather, you’ll surely get more than a million!” Bai Yun suddenly said.

Wu Xiaoyu was initially stunned, realizing they misunderstood him.

He quickly explained, “That’s not what I meant!”

“Your grandfather’s frequent ulcers are due to damage to the gastrointestinal nerves.

I have mostly repaired his damaged nerves now.

To cure the ulcer, all you need is a prescription that you can follow to get the medicine.”

Only then did Bai Yun feel relieved and said to Wu Xiaoyu with some embarrassment, “Sorry!

I misunderstood you!”

“You misunderstood me as taking the opportunity to blackmail you?

So, in your heart, I’m also a person with ulterior motives?” Wu Xiaoyu gave an evil smile, teasing.

Bai Yun still holding his arm, shook it and said, “I already said I misunderstood you!

Why are you still not letting go and making a big deal out of it?”

Bai Kainan, seeing them joking around like this, couldn’t help but cough to interrupt them.

Bai Yun, seeing her grandfather dressed and sitting solemnly on the sofa, quickly walked over and sat beside him, asking, “Grandpa, how do you feel now?”

“Much better…

much better!

Hmm, Wu Xiaoyu, sit…

sit!” Bai Kainan said with some embarrassment.

The butler on the side had already instructed someone to fetch pen and paper.

After Wu Xiaoyu sat down, he placed the paper in front of him and respectfully said, “Mr.

Wu, could you please write the prescription?”

Wu Xiaoyu took the pen from his hand, hesitated, and then asked Bai Kainan, “Sir, I have a question, I’m not sure if it’s appropriate or not?”

Bai Kainan had only known Wu Xiaoyu for a few hours, but his impression of him had made a 360-degree turn.

Initially, he thought Wu Xiaoyu was a young man who could handle crises calmly.

Later, he misunderstood him as a swindler with bad intentions.

But now he had indeed relieved his stomach problems, making this experienced businessman a bit unsure how to respond.

“Well…

that…

ask whatever you want!” Bai Kainan hesitated for a long time before speaking.

Hearing this, Wu Xiaoyu didn’t hold back, “I’d like to know how you got that gunshot wound?”

Bai Yun was taken aback.

She had just found out today that her grandfather had a gunshot wound and was very curious about its origin.

Bai Kainan sighed helplessly and recounted, “This gunshot wound was received on the South Border battlefield, over thirty years ago.

It’s better not to mention it!”

South Border battlefield?

Over thirty years ago?

With just these points, Wu Xiaoyu had already figured out the origin of his gunshot wound, and felt immense respect in his heart.

He then lowered his head and began writing the prescription.

Bai Yun, however, was still confused and continued to ask, “South Border battlefield?

What’s that about?

Did you serve in the army?”

That stirring and glorious past, Bai Kainan had rarely mentioned to anyone, so very few people knew he was a battlefield hero.

Under the persistent questioning of his granddaughter, his thoughts inevitably drifted back to those passionate years.

At that time, he was a squad leader in the reconnaissance company, leading his team along with the company commander, making numerous battle achievements on the battlefield and destroying countless enemy strategic positions, and killing many high-ranking officers.

During a retreat after a decapitation operation, they were chased by enemy soldiers, and that’s when he got shot, forced to leave the battlefield.

Thinking of these memories, his eyes could not help but become moist.

Bai Yun, seeing this, quickly stopped asking questions and changed the topic, “After taking the medicine prescribed by Wu Xiaoyu, your stomach problem will soon be healed!

Then, we’ll let you try the new dish at our hotel, I guarantee you’ve never had anything so delicious!”

This successfully brought Bai Kainan’s thoughts back.

He smiled and said, “I heard from the staff that you sourced some excellent local chicken and attracted many diners, is it true?”

Bai Yun proudly replied, “Of course!

Just wait and see, Grandpa.

The hotel’s performance will surely have a dramatic improvement, and you mustn’t regret it!”

Wu Xiaoyu couldn’t help but smile when he heard them mentioning this.

Seeing the smile on his face, Bai Kainan asked Bai Yun in confusion, “What?

Does he know about our bet too?”

Bai Yun shyly stole a glance at Wu Xiaoyu and evasively replied, “Grandpa, do you know where those excellent chickens came from?”

“From where?”

Bai Yun pointed to Wu Xiaoyu and said, “He raised those chickens!

The same breed of local chicken, the ones he raises are thousands of times better than others!”

Wu Xiaoyu shook his head modestly at her praise, indicating she was overdoing it.

Seeing Bai Yun not only avoiding his question but constantly praising Wu Xiaoyu, Bai Kainan couldn’t help but feel suspicion about their relationship.

How did they meet, and what exactly was their relationship?

To know, Bai Yun was very particular and rarely praised others, and even less frequently got close to anyone.

Why was she acting differently towards Wu Xiaoyu?

While he was lost in thought, Wu Xiaoyu had already finished writing the prescription.

He handed it over to the butler, instructing on the techniques for brewing the medicine before speaking to Bai Kainan again, “This medicine only needs to be taken for two weeks, and your ulcer will be healed, never to recur again.”

Bai Kainan had already experienced his excellent medical skills and naturally trusted his words, smiling, “Alright, I’ll take it for two weeks.

If it really heals as you say, I’ll surely reward you generously.”

Wu Xiaoyu smiled upon hearing this, “It will definitely be effective.

As for any reward, let’s not mention it!

Treating you is an honor for me!”

Bai Yun was puzzled.

Why wouldn’t he want a reward?

That was a million!

What was this nonsense about honor?

What was all this about?

Bai Kainan’s impression of him improved even more, not just because he didn’t seek reward, but also because he mentioned the word ‘honor.’

A person who worships heroes and knows to appreciate them couldn’t be wrong!

Besides, he had such excellent medical skills and a calm demeanor, he was truly a talent!

Though Bai Kainan was nearly seventy years old, due to the early death of his only son and the young age of his granddaughter, he still managed all the big and small matters of the company.

He was aware of the recent surge in the hotel’s performance and had people investigate, discovering that the surge was entirely due to the local chickens his granddaughter had procured.

This made him both amused and impressed by his granddaughter’s creativity, using candlelight dinners to attract guests.

She indeed had ideas and was promising!
