The Lady is Beautiful and Sassy

Chapter 815 - 785

Yu Ke immediately said upon hearing this, "Master Uncle, you don’t need to be humble. I can tell that you’re quite skilled and adept with the Ghost Doctor Needle Technique! You must have received the true teachings from the Master."

Qiao Qiqi, "..."

I taught myself.

In fact, she was somewhat embarrassed. After all, she hadn’t formally apprenticed, yet she learned the most exquisite techniques of their sect.

"Although my master learned medicine from the grandmaster, the grandmaster’s personality was somewhat stubborn. He didn’t quite like my master, so none of the sect’s secret techniques were passed down to my master, which left him regretting it for life. He never got over it even until his death, and urged me to learn if given the chance in the future. But I’ve been so useless, at this age I still haven’t fulfilled my master’s last wish... I’m truly ashamed before him." Director Yan’s face was full of guilt.

"You want to learn these needle techniques from me?" Qiao Qiqi understood now; the director’s intention was clear — he wanted to learn the secret skills left by the elder from her.

"Master Uncle, I hope you can allow it." Director Yan said, about to kneel before Qiao Qiqi.

Qiao Qiqi quickly held him up, saying, "I need to think about this."

She’s only nineteen; how could she let a man over fifty kneel before her?

"Alright, yes, it does indeed require consideration." Director Yan was still filled with hope internally.

Yu Ke also looked at her with a face full of expectation.

"Since Master Uncle has returned to the sect, the sect’s rituals must be observed. Please accept my bow, Master Uncle!"

Director Yan did eventually kneel down and knocked his head to Qiao Qiqi, prompting Yu Ke to quickly kneel and do the same.

Qiao Qiqi, "..."

"You don’t need to do this, please get up. I’m younger than all of you, I can’t accept such a bow." Qiao Qiqi pulled them back up again.

Jiang Meng was so shocked she’d jumped way away, "Oh my, at such an age he’s bowing so deeply to Qiqi. Qiqi is truly formidable, but someone as insignificant as me can’t bear this."

"Master Uncle, there’s no need to feel burdened. It’s a sect rule that doesn’t consider age but only the time of entry and hierarchy. Your rank is now the highest in the sect, so it’s rightful for you to accept this bow." Director Yan was supported up by his disciple and sat down.

"..."

What else could she say?

"In fact... I haven’t formally apprenticed to the sect. When the elder taught me things back then, he never mentioned anything about the sect." Qiao Qiqi thought it was best to clarify some things, for she didn’t want to deceive anyone.

"Master Uncle, please don’t mind it. Since you learned the sect’s secret techniques, it means that the Grandmaster treated you as a beloved disciple."

Seeing this man’s stubborn assumptions for everything, Qiao Qiqi decided not to waste her words. Since he was willing to recognize her as Master Uncle, she would accompany him in this.

She said she was tired and wanted to rest a bit, upon which Director Yan immediately stood up and respectfully withdrew, simultaneously instructing his disciple Yu Ke to absolutely attend to Master Uncle without a hint of negligence.

Once everyone had left, Jiang Meng dared to come out, patting her chest and saying, "Oh gosh, Qiqi, you’re just so incredible! The director of the Institute of Healing Arts, such a big person, actually knelt before you! My goodness, what kind of divine person are you after all!"

The Institute of Healing Arts, that’s a place they wouldn’t even dream of; only global medical geniuses could enter there!

And just that Teacher Yang from earlier was merely an ordinary, inconsequential student, yet he acted so arrogantly, as if he were number one in the world.
