Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Gu Man called Guo Guo softly and only looked up at her without much of a reaction.
However, the old man who saw this scene was dissatisfied. He gently patted Guo Guo’s head and reprimanded him sternly.
“Guo Guo, this is Miss Gu. You have to greet her when you meet her, understand?”
Due to her grandfather’s pressure, Guo Guo could only nod reluctantly in Gu Man’s direction, but her face was still extremely cold.
When the old man saw this, he could only sigh helplessly and rub Guoguo’s head.
“I came here this time to check Guo Guo’s symptoms and do acupuncture.”m
The old man did not show much of an expression when he heard acupuncture. It seemed that he had researched acupuncture techniques before.
He gently pushed Guo Guo’s back and pushed her in front of Gu Man.
“Then I’ll have to trouble you, Miss Gu.”
After saying this, the old man stood up obediently and prepared to walk out of the door. This was because he knew that ordinary people did not like outsiders watching when they performed acupuncture.
Seeing this, Xiang Yin also stood up and the two of them went to the door.
Compared to the enthusiasm in the room just now, the old man was more at a loss when facing Xiang Yin.
Xiang Yin took the initiative to start the conversation.
“How long has your granddaughter been sick?”
The old man suddenly heard Xiang Yin speak. He did not react for a long time before answering.
“Ever since she was young. I don’t remember the exact age, but I know that when she was still a baby, she often fell sick. This child has been pitiful since she was young.”
At the mention of Guo Guo, the old man spoke more, and his words made Xiang Yin think.
If she was sick at such a young age, it should be a generational feud, but…
He glanced at the dilapidated wooden house behind him. What kind of hatred would make them go after a small child?
Ever since that time, Xiang Yin had known that Guoguo was poisoned. He was also very interested in this so-called Gu. After all, it was something he had never seen before.
When he saw Guo Guo just now, he had also deliberately observed him. Her appearance was not much different from that of an ordinary child, except that she was a little thinner and shorter. Her face was pale.
However, with such a normal appearance, who knew that there was actually a Gu living in her body? She was probably already rotten inside.
In the room, Gu Man and Guo Guo stared at each other. Gu Man patted the bed helplessly.
“Lie down and take off your shirt. I’ll perform acupuncture on you.”
“Don’t waste your effort. It’s not like those old Chinese doctors haven’t done acupuncture before, but it still has no effect. I don’t know what you’re after, but if you’re not certain, you should leave early. Otherwise, I’ll definitely take revenge on you.”
She did not want to see her grandfather’s disappointed expression again. If this woman was only here to swindle, she would definitely not let her off.
Guo Guo’s face had a maturity that did not belong to her age. Gu Man looked at her two clear eyes and could not help but laugh.
“Didn’t Chief Wang tell you about my ability?”
Guo Guo licked her dry lips and didn’t say anything. It was because Director Wang praised her like a god that Guo Guo didn’t believe in her ability.
After all, Gu Man did not look much older than her. How could she have such superb medical skills at such a young age? If she did, she would be a talent that everyone fought over internationally, but she had never heard of her.
All kinds of suspicious points piled up together, making Guo Guo not believe the person in front of her at all.
“I don’t care what your motive is, but don’t think that I can’t hurt you just because I’m young. If you dare to lie, I’ll definitely make you regret it.”
She threatened word by word, her eyes filled with ruthlessness. Her gaze was fixed on Gu Man’s face, as if she was going to swallow her in the next second.
Gu Man stared at Guo Guo’s gaze and did not speak. She only smiled strangely.
She was clearly smiling, but the pressure around her did not make people feel at ease. Instead, it made people timid..
