Shen Menglin looked at the butler with disdain, "It's normal for the bodyguard not to help you. Even if all the bodyguards attack together, they might not be a match for him. Butler, bring him in."

When the two security guards heard Shen Meng's words, they sucked in a cold breath. Luckily they didn't clash head on with this person, otherwise they would have been in the ambulance already.

"It's been a day since we last met, you … "It seems like they have all grown bigger." Lee Shi looked at a certain part of Shen Menglin's body with a cheap smile.

"Rogue." Shen Menglin cursed before she turned around and left.

The butler walked to the front and thought to himself, Is it so strange? Even if the entire security team joined forces, they still wouldn't be a match. However, since this person had Miss Shen Menglin's backing, he was a lot more polite as well. "This way, please."

Lee Shi, who was following behind the butler, couldn't stop himself from exclaiming. The luxurious decorations in the mansion were too much for the eyes to take in, and his expression was also very excited.

When Lee Shi sat down in the living room, the butler finally couldn't help but turn around and say, "Stop looking around and drink a few cups of tea. Once Lee Shi sat down in the living room, the butler finally couldn't help but turn his head and say," Stop looking around and drink a few cups of tea.

"Be a bit more polite when you speak." Lee Shi said without raising his eyes.

"I have something to say to someone." The butler snorted.

"I agree with what you have to say to someone, but can you please take out the real Longjing [1] in front of the Xi Hu to receive our guest?"

Lee Shi took a sip of tea and said. Although his voice was not loud, it was loud enough for the people at the tea table to hear him clearly.

The steward said with disdain, "If this isn't Longjing, then what is this? Young man, don't talk nonsense without drinking any good tea."

Although the butler immediately denied it but if one looked closely at his expression, one could see the trace of panic on his face.

"I really haven't had any good tea before, but I know one thing. The fifth step of the Dragon Well in front of the Xi Lake is to put the buddhist Treasures Non-Dust Water, but you should have egg white inside right? Just because of this, the value of this cup of tea has dropped by half. " Lee Shi smiled and told Ye Zichen the details.

He might not be the best in fighting and medical skills, but in terms of food and drink, no one other than Great Master could compare to Lee Shi.

Great Master's greatest hobby was to eat and drink. Basically, he had drank all kinds of tea in the world, and he had also eaten all kinds of things that didn't care about dying people.

Of course, Great Master had also eaten a lot of things that could kill people.

For example, Great Master once had a sudden impulse to taste the taste of a puffer fish not being poisoned. He directly caught a puffer fish, threw it into the pot, cooked it, and then threw some cumin into the pot as a chicken leg to gnaw on.

Lee Shi had eaten quite a lot with Great Master since they were young, and Great Master, the Dragon Well in front of the Xi Hu Imperial City, also liked to drink, so Great Master often used this Dragon Well in front of the Xi Lake Imperial City to cultivate Lee Shi's taste in tea.

Lee Shi had always thought that Long Jing was just ordinary tea. Seeing the butler blow the cup to the sky, he couldn't help but poke a hole in the tea.

All of a sudden, he added, "I'm afraid all this money has fallen into your pocket, right?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" The steward argued loudly, "You country boy are fit to point fingers here and there. If you keep spouting nonsense, you can leave."

"Wait, there's something wrong with the tea. It's fake." An old man with a head full of hair stood up and seriously said.

This old man was the dean of Jinghai City's Chinese Medical School. Usually, his greatest hobby would be drinking tea.

To be able to taste the rare dragon well in front of the Brook Lake, he could only be excited, let alone the fact that this was Shen Family.

It wasn't until he heard Lee Shi's words that he started to carefully taste the tea. It was only then that he realized the negligible change in the taste of the tea.

Preserving freshness with the Stainless Water of Buddha was actually just a very particular method. If it was replaced with egg white, it would be very difficult to notice.

The old man had forty years of tea experience, but he couldn't taste it. He really didn't understand how a teenage boy could taste it.

"Old Wei, don't talk nonsense!" "How can it be considered fake tea when an ordinary person wouldn't be able to taste such a small difference?" When the butler heard this, he immediately began to argue.

"This little bit of difference is already two different kinds of tea. If you don't even care about this little bit of tea, do you still call it tea?" Principal Wei Kun Jian was also a capable person. In his entire life, he had never been able to tolerate these two things. The first was his medical skills, and the second was the Way of Tea. Upon hearing the butler's evaluation of the Way of Tea, their faces immediately fell.

The housekeeper's face reddened. Changing the Austerless Water into egg white was his idea. The main reason was that the price of the Austerless Water was already skyrocketing higher than gold, while the taste of egg white and the taste of the Amethyst Water weren't actually that great.

Of course, he didn't do this to save money for his master. The difference was all in his wallet.

"That's enough, butler. Take away all the tea and replace it with juice."

Shen Menglin's father, Shen Lian, said angrily. She herself, as someone from the Shen Family, had never received tea without work or food before.

Soon, the servants came up and took away all the tea, replacing it with fresh orange juice. The way everyone looked at Lee Shi also changed.

Wei Kun Jian nodded politely towards Lee Shi and asked, "Little brother, how did you taste the wrong one?"

"If you drink it every day, you can taste it too." Lee Shi said as he took a big gulp of fruit juice.

"I didn't expect you to be a rich kid." Wei Kun Jian looked at Lee Shi with some doubt, but Lee Shi's dressing didn't look like it!

"It's just a cup of tea, do you really need to be rich?" Lee Shi was confused.

"A packet of one hundred grams of Longjing [1] costs over ten thousand, can you afford to drink it without someone with a family as wealthy as Shen Family?"

Lee Shi almost sprayed out his orange juice when he heard that. He remembered that Great Master still had more tea in the cabinet, so he had to get a few packs of tea every day. He also drank a pack every day.

Wouldn't I have to spend a thousand every day?

Most importantly, he only had fifteen dollars a week for his pocket money. If he went to Widow Wang's house at the entrance of the village every weekend, he would have lost his dental service.

Furthermore, Great Master's favorite thing was to cry for poverty with himself. He would often carry a snakeskin bag to the garbage heap at the foot of the mountain to pick up abalone fish wings that the people at the foot of the mountain used to feed the dogs for him to eat.

"So Great Master is actually so rich!" Lee Shi couldn't help but pound the table.

Many pairs of eyes looked at him, wondering why this young man was so shocked.

"Sir, is there anything else?" The butler walked over. His face clearly showed that he was a lot more amiable, afraid that Lee Shi would find some fault again.

Seeing so many pairs of eyes staring at him, Lee Shi said awkwardly: "Nothing, I'm just a bit hungry."

A man with glasses coughed, and said while standing under everyone's gaze: "Everyone's almost here, let's first study the condition of the illness. After the treatment is over, my Shen Family will personally prepare dinner for everyone."

This person was the current owner of Shen Family, Shen Lou, was the second son of the Shen Family Old Man.

Ever since the Shen Family Old Man fell ill, he had been managing the entire Shen Family from inside out. It was also his idea to invite the elites of the Jinghai City's medical community to gather at this place.

Though the doctors here were all famous doctors in Jinghai City, they were all very respectful towards him.

This Shen Lou was not someone from the second generation of rich family, he was also well-known in the business world.

It was said that when Shen Lou was young, because he offended the family elders, he was kicked out of the family by Old Master Shen without a single cent.

Five years later, Shen Lou returned home in a BMW that was rarely seen in that era.

In just five short years, Shen Lou had become a millionaire worth tens of millions from scratch. He had also become a legend in that era's Jinghai City.

An old man in Tang suit stood up and said, "Your father's illness should be due to the cold attacking his brain. In addition, the weather has turned hot recently, causing him to be paralyzed from cold."

This old man was Wei Kunjian. He was rather old and had quite a bit of prestige in the hearts of the people. Therefore, he was the first to speak.

After this diagnosis, the other Chinese medical doctors nodded their heads again and again. This diagnosis was exactly the same as their own.

"Hahaha."

A burst of ear-piercing laughter resounded as a middle-aged man in elegant clothes stood up, clapping his hands. "Not bad, not bad at all."

Wei Kun Jian's brows knitted as he coldly looked at the middle-aged man and said, "What do you mean?"

"Chinese medicine is indeed just some scammers." The corners of the middle-aged man's mouth curved upwards.

The middle-aged man's name was Liu Guining, he was known for being anti-traditional Chinese medicine, and he had once launched a tactic on all the Chinese hospitals in Jinghai City. Of course, no one dared to accept the challenge.

Hearing someone call him a swindler, Wei Kun Jian did not show much anger, but instead smiled lightly: "You say that Chinese medicine is a swindler, I don't care what you say, but if you don't say what you want, then it's a slander, then meet this old man in court!"

At this point, Wei Kun Jian's eyebrows shot up and he felt an intimidating aura around him, even though he wasn't angered.

"Rather than some traditional culture, I believe in science. As far as I know, Elder Shen was treated last month, but this month, his condition worsened. He even took a lot of Chinese medicine."

Liu Guining said unhurriedly as he scanned over the several Chinese medical doctors present. There was a self-evident provocation between his brows.

"It can't be said to be TCM's fault." Someone interrupted.

Liu Guining seemed to have expected this, he shrugged and said, "You're right, but that doesn't mean that TCM is wrong."

"I have a list of the medicinal herbs that Elder Shen took last month. There is a medicinal ingredient called 'Lian Song Sui' in it."

"I took Liansong and tested it. I found that there was a disodium dihydrogen fluoride in it. This is an ingredient that is prohibited in any food or medicine, but you used it to treat illnesses."

"You bunch of swindlers are not just trying to save people, you are clearly trying to harm them!"

Liu Guining's words were like a stone that caused a thousand ripples, causing the entire living room to become noisy.

However, it was clear that the eyes of the people from Shen Family were no longer as friendly as before.

Traditional Chinese medicine was a very awkward existence in the China. Many of its prescriptions lack a scientific basis, and there is no uniform standard. These ordinary people, of course, preferred Western medicine, which was influenced by the modern Western civilization, not the ancient Chinese medicine.
