(Subscription and Monthly Tickets Requested)_1 With these thoughts, Su Tiantian’s soul was filled with inexpressible agony. But when she thought about Du Wenlong’s final words, she felt an overwhelming joy, while her affection for Du Wenlong also deepened significantly! In fact, Su Tiantian is not a bad person. The reason she has grown so coarse over the years, akin to a nouveau riche that people despise, is because she subconsciously believes that she does not deserve Du Wenlong. Thus, she subconsciously competes with others and bosses them around. She is proud, she is arrogant… All the bad habits she has developed stem from her subconscious fear — she fears being ridiculed for not being good enough for Du Wenlong… Now, seeing how Du Wenlong, even at the brink of death, still cares about not betraying her after realizing the existence of his first love, Su Tiantian feels immensely touched. Her original nature has returned. An authentic smile of happiness graces her unattractive face, instantly giving her an additional touch of beauty. She naturally stepped up to Lv Zhong, knelt beside Du Wenlong, and respectfully gave him a bow, saying: “Kind doctor, please forgive Tiantian’s previous rudeness. However, Tiantian hopes that you will still save my husband and sister Zhu’er. And rest assured, doctor, I will divorce Wenlong immediately. Therefore, please, grant us this favor — ” What? At this point, it was Lv Zhong’s turn to be taken aback. He couldn’t understand how Su Tiantian, who was once so domineering and arrogant, had undergone such a dramatic change in character. Seeing the Su Tiantian before him, Lv Zhong couldn’t reconcile her with the overbearing, arrogant lady of high standing from before. Human emotions can be complicated. Some people, when they experience certain things, can undergo drastic changes in character. But love is even more effective; it is the best “hormone” that prompts a change in one’s nature. As for Lv Zhong, still a novice in matters of the heart, he could not fathom the reason behind Su Tiantian’s transformation. “What nonsense are you talking about!” Du Wenlong flatly shook his head and told Su Tiantian: “You’ve been married to me for over two decades, and you should know me well. I refuse to consider the option of divorcing. I’ve already wronged Zhu’er. I absolutely cannot wrong you too. So, if you continue to talk like this, I’d rather invite death…” With his cultivator’s spirit sense, Lv Zhong could sense the sincerity of Du Wenlong’s words. However, this only left Lv Zhong more perplexed. Evidently, this Su Tiantian, whether in terms of looks or personal qualities, certainly wasn’t worthy of Du Wenlong. And yet, why is Du Wenlong still in love with such a woman? Lv Zhong did not quite understand the saying, “to each their own.” In reality, anyone, regardless of their attractiveness, has one or a few qualities that could charm someone of the opposite sex. It’s just that, generally, outsiders mostly see their flaws, and fail to see the good that lies beneath it. Once one removes Su Tiantian’s arrogance, haughtiness, and domineering behaviors, her feelings for Du Wenlong are not at all false. At least, from the fact that she’s willing to divorce Du Wenlong for his sake showed that she truly loved Du Wenlong. Unable to stand the sickeningly sweet display of affection between Du Wenlong and Su Tiantian, Lv Zhong glared at Du Wenlong irritably and ordered, “Get up, Du Wenlong. I can seal the [Heart and Mind Gu] in your body for now. But if you want me to save you, you must find that Miao girl first and get her approval. Otherwise, if I save you, it would mean killing her. I can’t do such a thing!” “Understood!” Du Wenlong spontaneously shouted in agreement. The opportunity to save the woman he first loved in his heart, he disregarded even his own identity and again kowtowed to Lv Zhong. He then stood up and took Su Tiantian’s hand. “Take off your top completely; I need to give you an acupuncture treatment,” Lv Zhong glared at Du Wenlong before giving a disgruntled command. “Yes…Yes…Haha…” When Du Wenlong realized that Lv Zhong still intended to save Zhu’er, he couldn’t contain his delight, his face broke into a broad smile. With Su Tiantian’s help, Du Wenlong quickly removed his top. His body was emaciated, his skin was dry and lacked vitality, and his complexion was somewhat waxy yellow. Lv Zhong couldn’t help but shake his head. This guy’s vitality was drained too severely! If some life force wasn’t replenished, given Du Wenlong’s physical condition, even if he could survive another month, it wouldn’t be conducive to his ability to mobilize. If he couldn’t find that Miao girl, Du Wenlong would be very unfortunate. With that thought, Lv Zhong’s hand suddenly held several silver needles. He channeled the Innate True Qi into these needles and inserted them into several key acupoints along the Bladder Meridian of Foot-Taiyang, forming an energy net composed of Innate True Qi pressing against the larvae of the [Heart and Mind Gu] hidden in Du Wenlong’s bladder. With the secret technique of the [Ghost Emperor Needle], he weaved an Innate True Qi prison around this bug, sealing it inside. Next, Lv Zhong used the [Yi Wood Biological Needle] to stimulate Du Wenlong’s vitality… *************** Two hours later, Du Wenlong felt refreshed. He felt that he had never felt more energetic in the recent years. He even felt that he could eat a bucket of rice and kill a Tibetan Mastiff with a punch in his current state. At this moment, he sincerely marveled, even horrified, at Lv Zhong’s medical skills! “Thank you, senior, for saving my life. If there’s anything you need from me, Du Wenlong, feel free to ask—” Saying this, Du Wenlong took out a business card from his clothes and respectfully handed it to Lv Zhong. Lv Zhong casually accepted the business card that Du Wenlong handed him, slipped it into his pocket, and grimaced at Du Wenlong, “Don’t celebrate prematurely. I’ve merely extended your life by a month and a half. Including the month you could have survived, you now have two and a half months to find that Miao Girl. I will only cure you if she agrees to come too. So, let’s hold off on the thankfulness.” “Ah…” Du Wenlong forced a smile then solemnly nodded, “Don’t worry, senior. If I can’t find Zhu’er, I won’t bother you for treatment.” “Glad to know!” Lv Zhong said bitterly. Do you know why Lv Zhong insists on healing the Miao girl together with Du Wenlong? Because Lv Zhong also had his eyes on the “Heart and Mind Gu” within the two of them. Although the ability of this witchery insect is considered low-tier compared to alternatives like the [Soul-Devouring Worm] and [Marrow Sucking Worm], and its value nowhere near theirs, it is nevertheless a legendary insect with its cultivation potential. What Lv Zhong was most interested in was the abnormal sensing ability between the mother Heart and Mind Gu and its offspring! However, a mother Heart and Mind Gu was only capable of producing one offspring with an exceptional sensing ability at one time. This reproduction rate seemed useless to Lv Zhong. However, Lv Zhong plans to do a couple of experiments, attempting to implant this powerful sensing ability of the powerful Heart and Mind Gu into other alien insects. Or he could attempt to cross-breed the Heart and Mind Gu with other alien insects, to see what sort of breed emerges. That Miao girl should know some techniques about worm cultivation. Lv Zhong wished to meet that Miao girl because he noticed that her breeding techniques seemed to be like the secret occult practices of the descendants of the ancient Witch Clan… After talking to Du Wenlong, Lv Zhong shifted his gaze to Cheng Yingnuo, “Mr. Cheng, your wife’s illness needs four more acupuncture sessions. Every Sunday from now, I will come here to perform acupuncture. Is that okay?” “No… no issues!” Cheng Yingnuo promptly replied. As long as his wife’s illness could be cured, he needs to eliminate any potential problems. In actuality, he wanted to mention that the Provincial City was quite a distance away from Yan City. And he wanted to ask if it would be possible for Lv Zhong to come to Provincial City to treat Duan Shiqing. However, having observed how Du Wenlong, the arrogant businessman, was disciplined by Lv Zhong, this question naturally couldn’t be asked. In his eyes, it was already considered a privilege to have a divine doctor like Lv Zhong agree to treat his wife. Searᴄh the ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. How could he go ahead and trouble Lv Zhong to come to the provincial city for the treatment? So, he immediately abandoned the idea. Lv Zhong nodded in satisfaction, then added, “If that’s all, I’ll be on my way.” Lv Zhong was about to leave the ward, but then stopped and glanced at the people in the room, adding, “Also, don’t call me unless it’s urgent. I’m very busy.” Even though the patient hadn’t asked for Lv Zhong’s phone number, Lv Zhong believed they must have obtained his “unregistered” phone number from Doctor Zhang Xiande. Lv Zhong, fearing that these people would bother him, mentioned it in advance. Lv Zhong wasn’t exaggerating! He had been busy reading medical books and diligently practicing the “Bridal Dress Divine Technique” and the “Vast World Microcosmic Spirit Condensation Technique” these days. He couldn’t afford to be burdened with trivial matters. He would be quite annoyed if these people started to bother him. “We dare not…, we dare not…” Cheng Yingnuo, Zhang Xiande, and the others all forced smiles. Just as Lv Zhong was about to step out of the special care ward, Zhang Xiande remembered the illnesses of Li Huiyan and Li Dongcheng, hurriedly asked Lv Zhong, “Senior, you remember those two patients I mentioned to you last time, do you think you might be able to help them?” “I’ve told you, even if they offer a billion, I wouldn’t treat them. I keep my word, if I say I will not cure, then I won’t—” Lv Zhong did not even pause as he spoke these words and walked straight out of the ward. Zhang Xiande gave a bitter smile. Lv Zhong’s refusal was rather resolute, a luxury Zhang Xiande himself couldn’t afford. It seems that somehow this Li Huiyan and their son Li Dongcheng had offended Lv Zhong. “Uncle Zhang, what’s the story here? This guy wouldn’t blink an eye at a billion?” Cheng Feng, with an insatiable curiosity, quickly sidled up to Zhang Xiande, his pudgy head almost hitting Zhang Xiande’s chin. Zhang Xiande hurriedly pushed Cheng Feng’s chubby face away and said to everyone, “I don’t understand what senior is thinking, ignoring a billion just like that, it’s the first time I’ve seen this…” Cheng Feng rolls his eyes and mumbled, “Someone who can make a billion by treating ten patients, that I’ve never seen either.” Cheng Lin watched Lv Zhong’s receding back, her eyes sparkled, she muttered, “This is the difference between an ordinary doctor and a real divine doctor!” “I’m glad this divine doctor agreed to treat both Zhu’er and me!” Du Wenlong, off to the side, was covered in a cold sweat. At that moment, he realized the ten billion RMB really wasn’t a big amount, it was equivalent to the money Lv Zhong would earn by treating only ten patients. If Lv Zhong decides not to treat him, Du Wenlong, he would definitely refuse just as resolutely! (To be continued.
