Chapter 6: Possessing Supernatural Talent?

  "That good-for-nothing kid spent an hour reading books in the library? And were Feng Ran and Jing Rou there too?" A certain military district's big courtyard, a usually calm Chen Zhenhua, after receiving the phone call report, his voice was filled with surprise and astonishment. "You... are you sure you didn't see wrong? He really spent an hour in the library? Always reading books? Didn't he... didn't he burn down the library?"

  "Yes, sir. The young master has been reading... a book." In a corner of the library, an ordinary-looking middle-aged man, Fang Bu Luan, twitched his mouth and spoke respectfully into his phone: "I'm currently in the library, the young master just left, and the library hasn't been burned..."

  Reading books?

  Is there anyone who reads books like that? That's just flipping through the pages, and at that speed, not to mention being able to see what's inside, but also having to understand it. Just looking at the title is difficult.

  "Reading a book!" Chen Qingdi's father, Chen Zhenhua still found it hard to believe his ears and couldn't help but confirm: "Not messing around, are you sure he is really reading a book?"

  "Yes, sir." The answer from the other end of the phone was somewhat less firm than usual.

  "Did this kid stay in the hospital once, suddenly woke up, washed his heart and turned over a new leaf? Chen Zhenhua held the phone, walked back and forth for two steps, obviously didn't notice Fang Wu's change, hesitated for a moment, asked excitedly: "Wu, what book is Qingdi reading? Won't it be..."

  It is undeniable that Chen Zhenhua also associated the type of book with colored ones.

  "There are some books introducing Chinese herbal medicine." Fang's mouth twitched again as he followed Chen Qingdi into the library, and he had thought that Chen Dashi was going to look at erotic books.

  "A book introducing Chinese herbal medicine?" Chen Zhenhua suddenly let out a breath of relief, and a thick smile spread across his face, with an urge to burst out laughing. This kid has finally come around, I've been waiting for this day for a long time!

  "No way!" Chen Zhenhua's smiling face suddenly stiffened, gritting his teeth and asking in a gloomy tone: "Don't mess with me, you're saying that the wastrel son of the Green Emperor is reading books on medicinal herbs?"

  "Yes, sir."

  "I said this good-for-nothing suddenly changed, damn it, I'm so angry," Chen Zhenhua cursed loudly, "Don't be distracted, keep following that good-for-nothing. If my guess is correct, he should be buying Chinese medicine now. Damn it, good-for-nothing, bastard."

  Chen Zhenhua was so angry he almost smashed the phone in his hand.

  "Yes, sir." Fang didn't hang up the phone and rushed out to chase after him, but he was very puzzled in his heart. Chen Dashao had washed his heart and changed his ways for the better, so he should be happy about it, why did Master react like this?

  "This good-for-nothing, this little beast." Chen Zhenhua slammed down the phone, so angry he was stamping his feet.

  At first, Chen Qingdi thought that Chen Zhenhua had washed his heart and changed his ways for the better, which made him feel relieved. However, when he heard that Chen Dashao was reading books on Chinese herbal medicine, he recalled how in the hospital, a female nurse had been kicked down by Chen Qingdi while trying to climb onto his bed, as well as the rumors circulating secretly within the hospital.

  The two combined, Chen Zhenhua was furious.

  This good-for-nothing is indeed problematic in that aspect, just like the rumors say. He's really hopeless and wants to treat himself through medical books.

  With your little tricks, you still want to self-study and self-medicate? What an international joke. As long as you don't make your body worse, it's good enough if you don't die from it.

  "This beast, ah!" Chen Zhenhua picked up the phone again, and it connected quickly. "Don't be messy, pay attention to what that spendthrift has bought, remember, don't miss a single item, report back to me in time."

  After finishing speaking, Chen Zhenhua hung up the phone.

  Chen Zhenhua, although disappointed with Chen Qingdi's incompetence, still considered him his eldest son and couldn't bear to let him mess around. Taking too many supplements could be fatal. Not to mention, Chen Qingdi had only read a book for an hour before attempting to treat himself with medicine.

  "If this good-for-nothing can do something decent, I'd be surprised if Old Master doesn't flay me alive." Chen Zhenhua couldn't help but shudder and subconsciously rubbed his own buttocks.

  A few days ago, Chen Qingdi was sent to the hospital, but Chen Zhenhua was beaten by Old Master Chen.

  Mr. Chen, the most authoritative figure in the Chen family, loves Chen Qingdi, a super spoiled son, even more. The name Qingdi was given by an old Taoist priest when Chen Qingdi was born.

  Old Master Chen doted on Chen Qingdi, and as a veteran of the military, he had a fiery temper and was extremely protective. Moreover, every time Chen Qingdi got into trouble, it would always be Chen Zhenhua who ended up getting scolded and beaten.

  Even if Chen Qingdi has a fever or catches a cold, Chen Zhenhua will be beaten to a pulp. Last time Chen Qingdi was sent directly to the hospital and almost died, it's strange that Chen Zhenhua can bear it.

  "Good-for-nothing, don't harm me." Chen Zhenhua quickly dialed another number and said with great respect: "Old Ma, it's Xiao Hua."

  "Xiao Hua, what brings you to look for me?" On the other end of the phone, a white-haired old man, Ma Lao, who was hiding on the sofa, smiled and said.

  "It's not for that good-for-nothing Qing Emperor, Ma Lao, do you have time? I'll send someone to pick you up and we can have a chat?" Chen Zhenhua sighed repeatedly.

  "What's wrong with that kid Qingdi again? Well, send someone to pick me up." Ma Guantian hung up the phone and slightly furrowed his brow. In the entire Chinese medical community of Huaxia Country, Old Man Ma was an absolutely respected figure.

  "Grandpa, that Chen Qingdi guy has fainted again?" The speaker was a 17 or 18-year-old girl, tall and slender, extremely beautiful, who was none other than Ma Lao's precious granddaughter, Ma Qinqin.

  As soon as she mentioned Chen Qingdi, Ma Qinqin's face, as white and delicate as jade, flushed with two red clouds.

  Ma Qingqing is very enthusiastic about traditional Chinese medicine and has already obtained the true transmission of Ma Lao's two successes at a young age. Although it is only two successes, in the field of traditional Chinese medicine, it is absolutely a rising star. No way, Ma Lao's medical skills are too superb.

  "Qing'er, what's wrong with your speech?" Ma Lao suddenly frowned and said: "Qing'er, come with me to Chen's mansion for a visit later."

  "Go to the Chen's house? Okay, I've long wanted to see what kind of person Chen Dashao is, haha." Ma Qingqing's big eyes kept sparkling. She had heard many rumors about Chen Dashao, but had never seen him in person.

  Ma Qingqing was really curious and wanted to know what kind of person Chen Qingdi was, that he could be as bad as the rumors said.

  A certain army general, Chen Zhenhua, slammed four sheets of paper filled with dense Chinese medicinal names onto the table and scolded loudly, "You beast! You beast, how could I, Chen Zhenhua, have given birth to a beast like you!"

  The four pieces of paper recorded all the Chinese herbal medicines purchased by Chen Qingdi, including ginseng, cordyceps, and other precious medicinal materials. What's more, there were even deer whip, tiger whip, and cow whip.

  This made Chen Zhenhua's anger swirl around in circles.

  Chen Qingdi was wronged again, this guy's body is too weak, buying these things for cultivation and also to regulate his body. And these deer whips, tiger whips, cow whips, etc., are just medicine guides, not used to supplement that thing or do that thing.

  "Xiao Hua, don't be angry either." Ma Guantian, sitting on the sofa, had a somewhat complex expression. "The medicinal materials purchased by Qingdi, as long as they are used properly and mixed well, are very beneficial to the body."

  "Ma Lao, don't try to comfort me. With his skills, he can arrange things well?" Chen Zhenhua sat down on the sofa with a sigh, and kept sighing.

  "If the records were made according to the order of Qingdi's purchases, then this child of Qingdi is definitely not simple." As he said this, Ma Guantian's chaotic eyes sparkled with a strange light, "I really do want to meet your son."

  "Grandpa, this can't be a coincidence, or did someone else give you the prescription?" Ma Qingqing said somewhat discontentedly beside him: "Even Chen Qingdi can..."

  Ma Qingqing spat out a fragrant tongue and didn't continue speaking.

  "Except for the first one, I can understand and open it, but the remaining three cards don't even know how to match, what's the effect of the medicine." Ma Guantian shook his head, he himself didn't dare to believe, could it be that he was thinking too much?

  "Qing'er, how much longer until school starts?" Ma Guantian suddenly asked.

  "There's still half a month before school starts." Ma Qingqing widened her beautiful eyes and exclaimed, "Grandfather, you're not planning to go to the school in person to see Chen Qingdi, are you?"

  Ma Qingqing and Chen Qingdi were in the same school, while Ma Guantian was still a nominal professor of traditional Chinese medicine.

  Ma Guantian didn't respond, but still made Chen Zhenhua's tiger-like body tremble with a hint of energy, his eyes flashing, for not just anyone could get Ma Guantian's praise.

  But what puzzled Chen Zhenhua was how did Chen Qingdi do it? Was it just because he read a book about Chinese herbal medicine in the library for an hour?

  "Could it be that this son of mine has a gift beyond the ordinary in this area?" Chen Zhenhua's whole body shook, and soon found a reason, which was his gift.
