Right after the former master spoke this, Jennie raised one of her eyebrows. The smile on the former master's face carried a hint of wickedness.

Indeed, after the former master finished speaking, Uncle Kim grinned and walked out from behind them. He said politely to Lim Ji-yeon, "Madam, please move aside so that I could take a look at the young master."

When Lim Ji-yeon saw Uncle Kim, a hint of puzzlement appeared in her eyes. In her heart, she still hoped that her son could be sent to the hospital for treatment.

However, since the former master had said so, she dared not say anything. Therefore, she could only stand at the side and stared anxiously at Uncle Kim and her own son.

The surrounding onlookers had moved out of their ways so that Uncle Kim could perform his "medical skill".

Uncle Kim squatted beside Su Gyeom. He stretched out his hand and touched Su Gyeom's injured arm.

Su Gyeom reflexively hunched his shoulders. His eyes were filled with wariness.

When Uncle Kim saw this, he whispered politely, "Young master, sorry if it hurts you."

Before Su Gyeom could figure out what Uncle Kim had meant with his words, the crowd heard a loud crisp sound along with an incredibly miserable scream that cut through the sky. The crowd shivered, broke out in cold sweats and took a few steps back.

"Su Gyeom!" Lim Ji-yeon shrieked and was about to lunge at him. However, the former master's voice rose behind, "Ji-yeon, a word of advice, don't simply move around. Uncle Kim inherited this osteopathic massage from his ancestors. This is only the first step. If you run over to him, you might interrupt Uncle Kim's healing process. By that time, I'm afraid that Su Gyeom's hand cannot be salvaged anymore."

Lim Ji-yeon turned stiff upon hearing the former master's warning. She stared at the sight with her eyes wide open while feeling heartache and waiting anxiously at the side.

After he cried out in pain, it did not mean that the healing was over. Before Su Gyeom had time to recover from his first wave of pain, the second wave of severe pain came next.

The crisp sound along with his miserable scream had everyone on the spot feeling a sensation of bone-chilling coldness creeping down their spines.

Finally, Uncle Kim pulled his hand away from Su Gyeom's arms. Su Gyeom's clothes were already soaked with sweat as if he had just been fished out of the water.

Uncle Kim rubbed his sore wrist and said to himself. 'I am old and can hardly hold on even for a while longer.' However, he could still continue to pick up the last round.

"Young Master, it's done. See if you still feel any discomfort when you move your arm."

Uncle Kim's voice broke the somewhat bizarre atmosphere in the banquet. Lim Ji-yeon snapped out of whatever mood she was in and quickly rushed over to Su Gyeom's side to help him out.

"Su Gyeom, is your arm still painful, and can you move it around? Do you still feel any uncomfortable parts?"

Su Gyeom glared at Lim Ji-yeon impatiently. In the end, he still did not refuse Lim Ji-yeon from helping him out.

He had used up all his energy during the "healing" process just now. Therefore, he could not stand on his own.

Su Gyeom leaned against Lim Ji-yeon's body. He tried to move his injured arm. Before this, he could not move his arm. He felt excruciating pain the moment he touched it. Now, he could move his arm freely without feeling any pain.

He finally got rid of his shoulder pain. Su Gyeom heaved a sigh of relief. His initial dark and painful expression resumed normalcy due to happiness.

While Su Gyeom was over the moon, the corners of Jennie's lips unwittingly twitched. She cast a profound glance at the wise and unpredictable former master not far away from her.

'This old man is really ruthless. He asked Uncle Kim to push back his dislocated bones in the absence of medical equipment. Thankfully Su Gyeom could endure the pain and did not die of pain!'

The old man certainly had taken to heart how Su Gyeom had insulted Minho as well as Lim Ji-yeon had spoken the wrong things. He was indeed a narrow-minded old coot. No matter what, he still did a good job!

Su Gyeom did not respond to Lim Ji-yeon. However, looking at Su Gyeom's complexion resuming normalcy, she knew that Su Gyeom was fine.

She heaved a sigh of relief and nagged him, "Su Gyeom, I was worried sick about you. If anything happens to you..."

Su Gyeom heaved a sigh and ignored Lim Ji-yeon's unstoppable nags. Instead, he glared at the main culprit who had been the cause of his misery.

Jennie naturally received the hint of anger from Su Gyeom's glare. She lamented to herself over the fact that her younger cousin truly deserved to be struck to death for he had already forgotten the previous lessons learned.

"Su Gyeom, a word of advice. Don't act recklessly. Even though Uncle Kim has relocated your bones, if dislocation happens a few more times, it would easily fall out the socket again."

In other words, if Su Gyeom were to have his arm dislocated once again, his arm might be easily dislocated anywhere at any time in the future.

Jennie's threatening remark had spoken for itself. Su Gyeom's expression turned ghastly pale. Although he was still unhappy with this, he did not do anything. He snorted and turned his face to the other side.

Seeing this, Jennie shot a glance at the former master. The former master received her hint. He faked a cough and said, "Su Gyeom got himself injured today. So, it's best that he doesn't join the rest of the banquet anymore. Na, ask someone to send the young master upstairs to change his clothes and take care of him."

Uncle Kim nodded. He casually pointed at two tall and strong male servants so that they carried Su Gyeom on both sides and sent him to the guest room.

Initially, Su Gyeom was reluctant. He felt uncomfortable with his sweaty body. However, he did not say anything and let the servants take him upstairs.

Lim Ji-yeon had wanted to go along with Su Gyeom. On second thought, she still felt like things were not over with Jennie yet. As such, she stayed on and wanted to have a word with Jennie.

Jennie knew the mother-son pair very well. When she noticed that Lim Ji-yeon did not tag along with Su Gyeom and had instead stayed on and looked indignant, she narrowed her eyes and decided to make the first move in order to gain the upper hand.

"Aunt, you mentioned that you wanted to settle the account with me regarding the previous incident of striking Su Gyeom to the extent he had to be admitted to the hospital. Certain things have to be settled as soon as possible to prevent each one of us from having lingering thorns in our hearts. Well, since there are so many people around here now, let's talk things over and make each other feel better. But before that, why don't you tell us the reason why I laid my hand on Su Gyeom?"

Since this family was so shameless, why should she be so merciful as to show her respect to them? Lim Ji-yeon had the guts to cause chaos at her mother and older brother's important event.. How could she not make her pay some form of price for this?
