With Pathogenic Worm, Lv Zhong eliminated 50% of the cancer cells in Duan Shiqing’s body. As for the remaining half of the cancer cells, Lv Zhong would clear them in four times over the next month. “Pre…predecessor, thank you very much today!” Out of the ward, Cheng Yingnuo, full of gratitude, thanked Lv Zhong over and over again. He was once a competent doctor and noticed that Duan Shiqing’s condition had improved a lot right after Lv Zhong’s treatment. This turned his last bit of worry into infinite joy and excitement. Seeing the gratitude on Cheng Yingnuo’s face, Lv Zhong was happy, but he still needed to collect the consultation fee. He then said: “There’s no need for thanks. After all, I’m here for the consultation fee. So let’s talk about the consultation fee.” “Okay!” Before Cheng Yingnuo could speak, Cheng Lin on the side nodded and said, “Predecessor, my mother’s life is priceless. We won’t shortchange you for this consultation fee. Here, this card has two million in it, and the password is six 8s. You can take it as a deposit. If my mother’s illness is completely cured, we will offer you another generous gift.” After saying that, Cheng Lin took out a VIP card of the Industrial Bank from her LV bag and handed it to Lv Zhong. To be honest, Cheng Lin was really not short of money, especially with a substantial amount of liquid assets on hand. “Okay, thank you then.” Lv Zhong didn’t hesitate and took the bank card. As he saw it, collecting a consultation fee for curing people is justifiable, it is his labor income, so naturally, he won’t refuse. However, Lv Zhong originally wanted to ask for 5 million, but the other party decisively ditched out 2 million, and even said it was a deposit, Lv Zhong was satisfied with that. Having received the bank card, Lv Zhong couldn’t help but feel a bit emotional. The Greedy Wolf from Jingang Assembly was struggling with their lives, but they could merely stash away more than 10 million in cash after exhausting themselves. He, Lv Zhong, had only been a doctor for a few months, yet had already earned close to 10 million. This money coming in fast! seaʀᴄh thё nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. “Doctor Zhang Xiande, you tricked my husband to come to Yan City, I won’t blame you. If you want to make money from my husband, it’s fine as long as you’re capable. However, we have been here for two days, where is the ‘miracle’ doctor you spoke about? Why hasn’t he even seen my husband? Doctor Zhang Xiande, if you have discernment, let that whatever miracle doctor come and treat my husband. Otherwise, don’t blame me for getting you dismissed…” While Lv Zhong was feeling emotional, a flamboyantly dressed middle-aged woman was yelling in the corridor at Doctor Zhang Xiande. What a big mouth! She not only wanted to have Doctor Zhang Xiande dismissed but also demanded that the true miracle doctor roll up and treat her husband? Hearing this middle-aged woman’s words, not only Doctor Zhang Xiande’s face went deadly pale, but Cheng Lin and Cheng Feng standing nearby were also left aghast and then filled with anger. Now, Du Wenlong is done for! This woman has not only offended Doctor Zhang Xiande but even a real ‘miracle’ doctor. Even if Du Wenlong could invite this doctor for treatment, the price he would have to pay could be disastrous. Cheng Yingnuo, standing to the side, also shook his head secretly. This woman has grievously offended the real ‘miracle’ doctor. Lv Zhong withdrew his gaze from the middle-aged woman and turned to Doctor Zhang Xiande, saying casually, “Director Zhang, let’s end today’s task here. I have something to do, so I’ll go ahead.” Undoubtedly, Lv Zhong has refused to treat Du Wenlong. Doctor Zhang Xiande really wanted to slap this trouble-making woman flying, but his medical morality was quite good. Since he had arranged for Du Wenlong to come for treatment, he naturally hoped that the patient would receive the best treatment. He hurriedly said to Lv Zhong, “Pre…predecessor, please wait. Although the quality of Du Wenlong’s wife, Su Tiantian, is very low, Du Wenlong himself is a decent man. Over the years, he privately donated 500 Hope Primary Schools to impoverished areas, with donations exceeding 1 billion. And whenever there is a disaster, he would organize relief supplies and rush to the disaster areas at the fastest speed. He is truly a rare philanthropist. Please consider…” At this point, Lv Zhong finally understood why Doctor Zhang Xiande, despite being insulted by this woman, still insisted on asking him to treat Du Wenlong. A person who could donate so many Hope Primary Schools to impoverished areas privately is indeed worth saving. Though Lv Zhong had a somewhat cold personality, he was not truly indifferent. As Mr. Old Zha said, “The greatest heroes are those who serve their country and their people.” Lv Zhong didn’t think he would become the “great hero” in Mr. Old Zha’s words, but that didn’t prevent him from respecting such people. In today’s society, such philanthropists are already rare. Losing another one would be unfortunate for the children in impoverished areas, and also for all of China. Having such people around could at least encourage everyone to be sincere and kind! “Well, considering the good deeds this man has done, it’s okay to be insulted by his wife once.” Lv Zhong laughed bitterly to himself, but to just let go of Du Wenlong’s wife and treat Du Wenlong, he was somewhat hesitant. “What, you dare to say something about my quality…” Su Tiantian was furious with Doctor Zhang Xiande, but before she could finish her sentence, the door of a nearby special care ward was suddenly swung open violently. A dignified yet elegant middle-aged man, with the aid of two bodyguards, walked out strugglingly, staring angrily at the middle-aged woman, Su Tiantian. “Ah…” The middle-aged woman exclaimed and quickly trotted over to the dignified yet elegant middle-aged man with her plump waist. She nervously said, “Husband, why did you come out? Go back to the ward and lie down. Don’t worry, leave the matter of finding a doctor to me. You will get better…” The man who came out was only a little over 1.6 meters tall, pale-faced, yet his eyes were sharp and spirited. Lv Zhong also recognized this man as Du Wenlong, the business tycoon of Xiangnan Province! This character, who has appeared in the news numerous times, is only 48 years old this year. The Tianhao Group he founded has become the business aircraft carrier of Xiangnan Province in just over two decades, with a market value of 50 billion, and even his personal net worth has exceeded 20 billion. It can be said that he is a born businessman. However, Du Wenlong, in the prime of his life, no longer exhibits the same spirited demeanor, commanding words, and impassioned expressions of his earlier years. What remains is only the pain and sorrow of his severe illness. “Shut up! You silly woman——” A roar erupted from Du Wenlong’s mouth. He suddenly struggled free from the support of his two bodyguards, raised his hand ready to slap Su Tiantian, but stopped just before his palm reached her face. “Forget it, consider it as my debt to you!” Du Wenlong’s hand ultimately did not end up hitting Su Tiantian’s face. Although the slap didn’t land on Su Tiantian’s face, to the onlookers, Du Wenlong’s timely retraction seemed more effective than lashing out at his wife in anger, and their irritation quickly dissipated. A man able to tolerate many faults in his wife, and uphold her dignity in public, cannot be too bad of a person. Besides, while Su Tiantian might be vulgar, bossy, and irritate people casually, it was clear from her expression of concern that she genuinely cared for Du Wenlong’s health. Understanding this, Lv Zhong couldn’t help but smile wryly. He found himself unable to get too angry at this vulgar middle-aged woman. At this moment, Du Wenlong walked over with a bitter smile, saying to Doctor Zhang Xiande: “Big Brother Zhang, thank you for your care lately. My wife’s behavior can be crude due to our humble beginnings, I apologize for any offense she might have caused.” “No need to be so polite, Du. I wouldn’t hold a grudge over such a minor matter,” replied Doctor Zhang Xiande. He was already aware of Su Tiantian’s haughty and arbitrary temperament. Seeing Doctor Zhang Xiande’s sincere expression, Du Wenlong could tell that Doctor Zhang’s anger had been dissipated. Feeling relieved, he turned to look at Cheng Yingnuo’s family. Seeing their happy faces, he suddenly understood—Duan Shiqing’s cancer really could be cured. This realization brought him a moment of joy. If Duan Shiqing’s illness can be cured, then perhaps there is hope for his own disease too. “Old Cheng, God of Wealth Lin, Brother Feng, looking at your expressions, it seems Director Duan’s condition has improved. Hehe, let me offer my congratulations,” said Du Wenlong as he raised a fist towards the Cheng famly with a cheerful smile. As they were all part of the provincial capital’s elite circle, Du Wenlong was naturally acquainted with the Cheng family. “Thank you!” Cheng Yingnuo, Cheng Lin, and Cheng Feng were all beaming with joy. They felt that their trip to Yan City had not been in vain. Having noticed Lv Zhong from the corner of his eyes, Du Wenlong respectfully greeted him and said, “You must be the divine doctor that Brother Zhang mentioned. On behalf of Tiantian, I apologize for earlier.” With his acumen and wits, Du Wenlong had managed to establish a 50-billion enterprise, Tianhao Group, within just two decades. With a bit of thought, it’s clear that Lv Zhong must be the real divine doctor. Although shocked by the youth of the divine doctor before him, Du Wenlong, having carved out a path in the ruthless business world, naturally knew how to judge people. The young man standing in front of the crowd, Doctor Zhang showing utmost respect behind him, and the Cheng family occasionally looking at him with gratitude and excitement… If Du Wenlong couldn’t figure out who the divine doctor was, then he wouldn’t be Du Wenlong who’d battled his way in the business world. “Alright! I can tolerate the disrespect from your wife, but if you want me to save you, we need to talk conditions first,” Lv Zhong raised his hand, looked at Du Wenlong seriously, and calmly said, “As long as you agree to my two conditions, I can treat you.” Without expressing any displeasure, Du Wenlong politely returned Lv Zhong’s gesture and said, “What are the conditions, please explain. If they’re acceptable, I will certainly consider.” “Firstly, to cure you, the medical fee will be 10 million, as consolation for your wife’s disrespect. Secondly, donate 500 schools of the same standard as Hope Primary School in poor areas across the country within the next two years. What do you think?” Lv Zhong spoke casually, awaiting Du Wenlong’s reply. “Chi…” The Cheng family on the side gasped at the offer. They immediately understood that although Lv Zhong had forgiven Su Tiantian’s disrespect, forgiveness didn’t mean he wasn’t upset. For a single disrespectful remark from Su Tiantian, it would directly cost Du Wenlong at least one billion! Realizing this, Cheng Yingnuo, Cheng Lin, and Cheng Feng felt a profound sense of relief. They were grateful they hadn’t been disrespectful towards Lv Zhong earlier; even as billionaires, losing one billion would be a substantial hit. (To be continued.
