124: Chapter 123 Return to Hometown_1 124: Chapter 123 Return to Hometown_1 Seeing his son so adamant and giving such righteous speeches, Lv Tianlin gave a bitter smile and said, “Alright, you are an adult now, you have your own thoughts, I won’t try to persuade you anymore.
Nevertheless, I still hope that you will spend more time studying our Lv family’s medical books and glorify our Lv family’s medical skills.”
“Dad, I know.” Lv Zhong laughed lightly and said, “Just to let you know, I didn’t spend eight years by my grandfather’s side for nothing.
I’ve read more than half of the medical books and various case-studies of ancestors treating diseases at home.
Moreover, I’ve cured several people with my own medical skills and earned a good amount of money.”
After speaking, Lv Zhong took out a bank card and handed it to Lv Tianlin, saying, “Dad, there’s some money in this card.
The password is both of your birthdates.
This money is what I recently earned from treating some patients, you and mom can use it.
All these years, you’ve been worrying about the three of us kids, and also, in the coming years, Xiao Jin will need a lot of money.”
“Son, use the money you earned yourself, your dad and I haven’t retired yet.” Lv Tianlin shook his head and stared at Lv Zhong for a moment.
At that moment, Lv Tianlin didn’t suspect Lv Zhong of having ill-gotten money.
After all, he himself was a doctor, he knew the level of Lv Zhong’s medical skills.
It’s well within reach to earn money from such medical skills.
However, what Lv Tianlin did not know was that the bank card Lv Zhong took out contained 500,000 in deposits.
He also didn’t know that his son had at least ten million in cash and over five million in deposits.
Otherwise, he might have been scared by the money Lv Zhong showed.
“Son, you’re about to go to college, use this money as your pocket money, your dad and I may not have high salaries, but at least we have stable incomes.
It will be easy for us to shoulder Xiao Jin’s tuition fees.
Hurry up and take the card back.” Although Liu Shuxian was as happy as if she had eaten honey, she still smilingly refused the bank card that Lv Zhong passed over.
In her eyes, her son being so filial already made her very happy, how could she accept the money her son earned?
This money was earned recently from City Mayor Zhao’s brother Zhao Yuanyi and several tycoons in the city, and there are hundreds of thousands.
Also, I have another card with enough money for the years I’ll be in college.” Lv Zhong laughed and put the bank card into Liu Shuxian’s hand.
He feared his parents would overthink, so he had to use the names of Zhao Yuanyi and Zhao Yuancan.
Hundreds of thousands?
This time not only was Liu Shuxian stunned, Lv Tianlin was also taken aback.
Even after working for over twenty years, the couple couldn’t come up with 120,000 RMB at once.
But now, their son casually took out a card with hundreds of thousands?
The couple was somewhat disbelieving.
“Wait…” On hearing Lv Zhong mention Zhao Yuanyi and Zhao Yuancan, Lv Tianlin hurriedly asked, “Little Zhong, the Zhao Yuancan you spoke about is not Zhao Yuancan, the former principal of South China University, is it?”
“Yes, it’s him!” Lv Zhong curiously looked at his father and nodded.
At this moment, Lv Tianlin slightly shivered and quickly took out a mobile phone and dialed a number.
All of a sudden, he became respectful.
“Pre…Principal, it’s Lv Tianlin.
I didn’t know about your serious illness, I didn’t come to see you, I’m…
I’m sorry…” Lv Tianlin stuttered, unsure of what he was trying to express.
But before he could finish talking, a hearty voice came from the other side of the phone, “Haha, Tianlin, my illness is all gone now, all things considered, I really have to thank your son Lv Zhong…”
This time it was Lv Zhong’s turn to be dumbfounded, this world was too small.
His father actually knew Zhao Yuancan?
Moreover looking at it, their relationship seemed to be unusual.
All of a sudden, Lv Zhong was a bit confused.
If Zhao Yuancan’s network was available, it was impossible for his father Lv Tianlin to have stayed in the Central Hospital of Sangtang Town for more than twenty years!
As long as Zhao Yuancan gave a casual mention, Lv Tianlin would at least be the attending doctor in City Attached First or Second Hospital.
But Zhao Yuancan didn’t do this, and it seemed that Lv Tianlin did not use Zhao Yuancan’s connections either.
Most importantly, ever since Lv Zhong had started to understand things, he had never heard his father mention that he was acquainted with the old principal of South China University.
However, Lv Tianlin was a graduate of Yancheng Medical College before it merged with South China University, so it wasn’t strange for him to know the old principal.
The problem was that, according to what Zhao Yuancan said, he seemed to know that Lv Zhong was Lv Tianlin’s son.
But why didn’t he show any abnormality when Lv Zhong was treating him?
Lv Zhong was quite puzzled.
Just as Lv Zhong was full of doubts, Lv Tianlin ended his casual talk with Zhao Yuancan.
Seeming quite delighted that Lv Zhong could cure Zhao Yuancan’s illness, Lv Tianlin affirmed his son’s medical skills.
After hanging up the phone, a smile would occasionally cross Lv Tianlin’s face, and his satisfaction with his son seemed to increase.
However, as if recalling something, Lv Tianlin suddenly said to Lv Zhong in a serious tone, “Little Zhong, you still don’t have a medical license.
Try not to intervene unless it is absolutely necessary.”
He was well aware of his father’s good intentions.
In this society, simply having medical skills does not mean you can practice medicine.
“Son, your medical talent is astonishing.
You’ll be going off to university in a little over two months.
Perhaps you can spend your summer vacation looking at medical books and cases of our ancestors from the Lv family.” said Lv Tianlin.
Though he decided not to interfere with what subject his son would be majoring in, he still hoped that Lv Zhong would make as much time as possible to learn Chinese Medicine, especially the medical techniques passed down in the Lv family.
That was Lv Zhong’s plan all along, so he nodded in agreement: “Sure!
But I have two patients who haven’t fully recovered yet.
I will set aside time to go to the city every Saturday.”
“Arrange it as you see fit!” Lv Tianlin was very pleased and nodded.
However, he quickly snatched the bank card that Lv Zhong had previously handed to Liu Shuxian, and threw it in front of Lv Zhong, “Take it back.
Doing this makes it seem like your old man is incompetent.”
“Uh?” Lv Zhong was slightly dumbfounded, “Dad, aren’t you taking it too seriously?
You should be proud that I can earn money.
However, if you really want me to take back this bank card, aren’t you afraid I will go astray with too much money?”
“You dare!” Lv Tianlin glared at Lv Zhong sternly.
This time, however, he snatched the bank card and casually tossed it to Liu Shuxian, “Wife, you take care of this card for him, manage it as if it was his dowry.”
“Hmm, Little Zhong is turning eighteen soon.
It’s about time we started buying a house for him…” Liu Shuxian nodded earnestly in response.
Lv Zhong rolled his eyes, but he felt extremely moved inside.
Chinese parents indeed deserved to be commended as the greatest in the world.
They always put their children first, no matter the circumstance.
From childbirth, raising and educating their children, to their children’s marriage and professions, they were always thinking and fretting.
They would even worry for their grandchildren’s wellbeing…
And so, the family enjoyed a warm dinner together…
On the next day, Lv Zhong left behind a dozen [Soul Devouring Bugs] to secretly protect his parents, and he returned to his hometown in Nanyue.
For Lv Zhong, returning to his Nanyue hometown meant he could cultivate freely.
As for Li Huiyan and his son, Li Dongcheng, their destined tragic lives were about to begin.
However, Lv Zhong, who was heading to his Nanyue hometown, was unaware that a certain group was quietly watching him.
