Li Li was about to continue explaining when a stern shout came from outside the door. A tall man pushed the door open with force and walked in. His face was grim and cold, and he was wearing a suit, as if he had just rushed in from an important ceremony.

"What are you doing?" Each word was like a shard of ice.

Jiangnan looked up lazily, "Lambert, why are you so angry?"

Lambert, who was furious, heard someone calling his name and stared at him in shock, "Why are you here?"

Who could tell him why his partner was here? The news he received was that Nova had brought a doctor of unknown origin to treat Jeffrey, and he was so scared that he hurriedly left the important luncheon.

"Me? I came here with this young doctor. Didn't you ask me to help you find a master of Chinese medicine? Here it is." Jiangnan's tone was filled with pride.

Lambert's eyes went dark, and he almost fainted. "I'm talking about looking for a Chinese medicine expert, not some random quack doctor from nowhere!"

Then he yelled at Li Li, "You, take your hands off him right now!" He stepped forward and asked Jeffrey to sit up.

Then turning to Jiang Nan, he said seriously: "I'm sorry, Jiang, business is business, I won't joke about my brother's safety."

Jiangnan immediately restrained his lazy posture and his eyes became sharp.

Li Li was fed up with being questioned all morning. "I don't want to watch it, forget it!"

Nova was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. "How can I not watch it? I have been waiting for you to come to the Kingdom of Ruger for a long time."

Lambert said expressionlessly, "I know you are my brother's best friend, but this is related to his safety. I can't promise you this."

"If the patient's relatives don't agree, I can't force them." Li Li said to Nova that coming here this time was also a favor.

Jiangnan couldn't bear to see the girl being bullied, so he said coldly, "Let's go!"

"What's going on!" Nova was so anxious that he almost vomited blood. How could the person he had invited with so much difficulty just leave like that! ...

"Wait!" Jeffrey, the mysterious being who had remained silent for a long time, stopped them in their tracks. "Am I not a patient? Doctor Li..., what did you want to say just now?"

A premonition began to arise in Jeffrey's mind that if he ignored Dr. Li's words, he might regret it for the rest of his life.

Li Li's expression was cold, but out of respect for Nova, she still responded, "Your spine is severely twisted, and every segment is broken. This is not caused by a skiing accident, but by a heavy blow."

Her words were soft but they were like thunder.

Jeffrey's arms, the only part that could move, were shaking. Jiangnan's calm face was also shocked. How could the spine of a Redmayne family member suffer such a fate?

“How do you know all this?!” Lambert stared at her with sharp eyes. His brother’s injury had always been a family secret. How could she know so much about it?

“Touch and learn.”

“By touch?” Lambert repeated her answer in disbelief, as if he had heard something strange.

When Jiang Hou came in, he only saw Li Li's hand on Jeffrey, and did not witness the miraculous diagnosis she performed.

Nova responded on behalf of Li Li: "It is true. I witnessed it with my own eyes."

Lambert's eyes widened, unable to believe it. "Do you have the ability to treat him? Didn't you cure Lambert?"

Nova asked anxiously, since she knew the cause of the disease at once, there must be a way to save it, right?

Lambert immediately turned to Li Li. She actually cured Lambert? Of course he knew this person with the same name, a student of Nova. He had heard his brother complain about him. He was also called Lambert, but why did he have no musical talent?

A faint hope welled up in my heart. Could it be true... ?

Under everyone's expectant gaze, Li Li shook her head gently, "His injuries are too serious, and it has been too long since he was injured. If I had contacted him at the moment of injury, I could have ensured that he would not be like this now."

When she was injured? Jeffrey's injury happened several years ago. Even if she was there then, how old was she?

Nova and Lambert hung their heads in disappointment. Was there really nothing they could do?

The twinkle in Jeffrey's eyes died down and he returned to silence.

Jiangnan looked at Li Li and felt that she seemed to have something else to say.

Sure enough, Li Li spoke slowly, "But..."

"What else?" Lambert was anxious. Why did her words always make people so uneasy?

Li Li ignored his anxiety and said to Jeffrey, "It's not that there is no solution, but the risk is extremely high and the process is extremely painful. It is difficult to endure and persevere to the end."

Jeffrey's mind went blank. "Do you really have a solution?" Although he knew he shouldn't have too much expectations on this young woman, he still couldn't help asking.

"As long as it can save me, I can endure any pain."

Li Li smiled and said, "Don't be so sure. Can you endure the pain of fracture remodeling?"

Fracture remodeling? Nova took a deep breath. Just hearing this word made his hair stand on end...

Although the literal meaning was clear, Nova still needed confirmation, "You mean to completely crush the bones and then reshape them?" This sounded too horrifying, enough to make people's hearts tremble.

"That's right. His skeleton is in a mess. The only way for him to survive is to break it down and then rebuild it again." Li Li gave an affirmative answer.

"No, the risk is too high." Lambert was silent for a moment and rejected the proposal. He could not afford the cost of failure. "Brother, I have contacted a famous doctor in China, who is known as the 'Chinese Medical Saint'. He must have a solution."

"Is the Medical Saint you are talking about Ji Xunqiu?" Li Li suddenly asked, as if Ji Xunqiu was the only one worthy of this title in China.

"Yes." Lambert trusted the famous Ji Xunqiu more. The whereabouts of that mysterious doctor were elusive, and he had just managed to get in touch with him recently.

Li Li pondered, why did she always meet him among her patients? Was there really an indissoluble bond between them?

She called Ji Xunqiu directly.

"Hello? Junior sister!" Ji Xunqiu answered the phone quickly, his voice full of joy. This was the first time that his junior sister took the initiative to look for him.

Li Li pressed her eyebrows and got a headache when she heard this name.

Jiangnan was not far from her. When he heard Ji Xunqiu's address, he smiled slightly. "Junior sister?" It seemed that this girl had many secrets.

"Has anyone from Rguo contacted you recently? Please treat a paralyzed person."

Ji Xunqiu was startled, "Junior sister, how did you know?"

"I am right next to this patient, but unfortunately his family doesn't believe me and insists on asking you to come."

"Is he mentally ill?" Ji Xunqiu asked in surprise, "If even you can't solve the problem, what can I do?"

"Junior sister, give him the phone and let me talk."

Nova could understand Chinese, but at this moment he was stunned.

Lambert saw Li Li chattering a few words in Chinese, and then handed the phone to him, and he took it in confusion.

Ji Xunqiu switched to English, "I am Ji Xunqiu."

Lambert's hands trembled, and he almost dropped his phone. Ji Xunqiu? The Chinese Medical Saint mentioned earlier? Why did she call him directly?

What is their relationship? Perhaps a master and a disciple? No, the girl is still young, and Ji Xunqiu's disciples are already well-known.

Lambert said respectfully, "Hello, I'm Lambert Redmayne."

"Okay, I know who you are." Ji Xunqiu said impatiently, "Your assistant contacted me a few days ago and asked me to treat your brother's illness, right?"

Hearing this, Lambert's doubts about the other party's identity disappeared.

"Yes, I implore you to come to Rguo. If it really doesn't work, we can go to China. As long as you can cure my brother, you can propose any conditions." Lambert said sincerely.

"I'm not here to discuss compensation with you."

"Ok?"

"Let me ask you, what are you dissatisfied with about my junior sister's treatment of your brother? I want to tell you, if my junior sister can't do anything, then I can't help either. There's no need to ask me to go to Rguo, and you don't have to come either." Ji Xunqiu directly stated his position.

"???"

"!!!"

"Junior sister?" Lambert exclaimed...

"Why make a fuss? Since Ms. Ariela claims to have a solution, you have the right to choose. But if you don't follow it, it may be difficult to find a second person in this world who can resolve the predicament." Ji Xunqiu advised sincerely.

"Please return the Star Slate to my senior sister."

Lambert woke up as if from a dream and quickly handed the mysterious stone tablet back to Liliana.

"Well, very good. You must improve the rune needle techniques you learned earlier every day. I will check them when I return."

Liliana hung up the call and noticed that everyone's eyes were on her.

"I have told you the plan. I will take my leave now. Goodbye." Liliana nodded slightly to Norva and turned to leave. Seeing this, Jiangnan immediately stood up and followed.

"Wait! Senior Sister, no, Ms. Liliana!" Lambert suddenly realized and stood in front of Liliana like a gust of wind.

Liliana frowned and said, "I have said everything I can."

"I understand." Lambert apologized quickly, "Please forgive my recklessness. It was just because I was too anxious."

"I trust you, please save my brother."

Liliana looked calm: "Didn't you say the risk was too high?"

Lambert smiled bitterly: "How can I not be grateful to those medical masters who have praised you from all over the world. To be honest, I have asked doctors from all over the world, but only you have given me the light of hope."

His initial refusal was rooted in his disbelief in Liliana. Now, she and the famous doctor were from the same school, and her medical skills were even better than his. He had no choice but to go all in.

"You have been given the opportunity." Liliana remained indifferent. She was not a savior, and if she had not considered Norva's face, she would not have wasted her words.

"Ms. Liliana, please save me." Jeffrey's voice trembled, and he took off his hard shell, revealing his deep inner fragility.

The Earl of the Redmayne family was once so heroic, but he was eroded by illness and his pride and honor were worn away.
