After Huang Xue left his view, Xia Liu did not linger any further. Entering directly to provide treatment now would not be very good, instead, if he wanted to apologize to Huang Xue, then he should make it a grand gesture! In front of everyone, he would reveal his prowess for her! Although the scenery of Yuanguang City was beautiful, Xia Liu was not in the mood to take it in. Before the Divine Doctor event commenced, he had been lingering around Huanglong City. The number of journalists gathering at the entrance was increasing, because of the event, more and more doctors from other places were also coming here. And they were all old practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine. Xia Liu had entered Huanglong City once, gaining some understanding of its structure. Huang Xue's grandfather was named Huang Zhongcai, and the Huang Family had placed him in an empty room. There was no equipment inside, just a bed for the old man to rest on. Because of his strange illness, the servants who came close to Huang Zhongcai were all wearing protective suits with gloves. This was indeed a job that risked one's life; already, two servants had lost their lives to exposure to Huang Zhongcai. Since security was spread all around the house, Xia Liu did not want to expend the effort to take a closer look. Therefore, he did not know much about Huang Zhongcai's illness. As night approached, the Huang Family would launch the Divine Doctor event tomorrow. The people inside Huanglong City gradually got busy, with more security guards showing up, and even the police arrived on the scene. Tonight was the registration time for the event, and the people gathered outside the villa had already exceeded one hundred. Most were old traditional Chinese medicine doctors who had come from other places; they registered their information at the entrance and then left. "Next," the person at the registration desk arranged the papers, barking out without even lifting his head. "Name, specialty, medical record." "Xia Liu, specialty is acupuncture, can cure all symptoms." The registrar, copying the information down, couldn't help but frown and then lifted his head to stare at the youth at the table. Read exclusive adventures at empire "Don't mess around, kid!" Huang Letian was assigned to register the old doctors' information and was already quite annoyed, and now, hearing what Xia Liu said, his anger intensified. But no matter what, he was a scion of the Huang Family, and with so many journalists around, he had to watch his words, or else he would have cursed out loud much earlier. "Alright, I've cured early-stage cancer, genetic diseases," Xia Liu awkwardly smiled. These days, telling the truth really makes people take you for a fool. "Haha, listen here, young man, although fifty million is a lot, you could earn it with a hundred years of hard work, don't be obsessed with this event." "Trash! Get lost, how can you be so senseless at such a young age?" "Exactly, don't hold everyone else up, all right!" The people queuing up behind Xia Liu couldn't help but jeer and become angry. If Xia Liu were an old man with white hair, his claims might hold some credibility. After all, they all studied traditional Chinese medicine and were somewhat familiar with Huaxia's medical texts—miracles often came from traditional Chinese medicine. But Xia Liu, barely in his twenties, dared to claim he had cured cancer! This was nothing but nonsense. "Alright then, young man, just write that I'm proficient in medicinal materials; since the patient's body can't be touched, perhaps healing could be done through medicinal materials." Xia Liu couldn't care less about these so-called practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine mocking him behind his back—they were not qualified to do so. "Got it, come back tomorrow, next," Huang Letian sighed with relief, waving Xia Liu away, fearing he might end up hitting the guy if he stayed any longer. "Trash!" "Get lost!" "Brain-dead!" "With such a big forest, all kinds of birds are bound to appear!" When Xia Liu left, he walked past the doctors who were queuing, and they were all making sarcastic remarks. In their eyes, Xia Liu's words and actions were nothing but disdain and contempt for Huaxia traditional medicine. Cancer is recognized by the world as a terminal disease. It was one thing for him to claim he could cure it, but to say he could also cure genetic diseases... If he could really cure them, then others wouldn't inherit them anymore, and even if they did, they wouldn't wait for him to treat them. Xia Liu's expression was cold and handsome, and he scanned the crowd with a furious gaze. The people who had made sarcastic remarks shut their mouths when they saw Xia Liu's eyes, sharp like those of a fierce beast. After Xia Liu had left, they all felt their backs were soaked in sweat. Each of them inhaled sharply. Xia Liu's gaze had instilled a sense of fear in them. It was as though such a gaze did not belong on a human. In the queuing crowd, there were two people whose emotions differed from the rest. "Grandfather, do you think that guy named Xia Liu really has cured cancer?" Mu Jiuzhen, who was queuing with her grandfather, asked with doubt. "Not sure, but I have high hopes for him. I have never seen a young doctor so confident, yet so eloquently spoken," Mu Hua replied uncertainly. Perhaps Xia Liu had indeed cured cancer. After all, Huaxia traditional medicine had been handed down for thousands of years, with astonishing medical practitioners emerging in every era. Once out of everyone's sight, Xia Liu lingered in a corner. After checking that no one was around, he took a deep breath and leapt over the wall with one bound. According to the map in his mind, Xia Liu arrived in front of a small three-story villa. A convertible sports car was parked in front of the villa, the very one driven by Huang Xue! And in this villa lived Huang Xue. Xia Liu climbed up to a balcony on the second floor using the installed pipes. Inside the room, there was a large round bed, and a set of pajamas was carelessly thrown on it. Seeing this, Xia Liu swallowed several times, especially when he saw a light shining through the glass door of the bathroom. He was certain Huang Xue was taking a shower! Just then, as Xia Liu was letting his imagination run wild, the bathroom door swung open. A fair figure stepped out, and regrettably, Huang Xue was wrapped in a towel... Her expression cold, she stepped out of the bathroom barefoot, glanced at the open curtains, and then moved toward the window. Whoosh! She pulled the curtains closed, cutting off the view of the room from the outside. "Damn curtains!" Xia Liu cursed as he stood outside the window. "Damn you, Xia Liu! I'll make you hate me! Make you despise me!" Just as Xia Liu was considering a place to rest, sudden slapping sounds and angry voices came from inside the room. Xia Liu strained to see inside the room through the curtains which weren't completely closed. At that moment, Huang Xue was sitting on the bed, her hands continuously pounding the pillow. Seeing this, Xia Liu felt embarrassed. This girl must be imagining that pillow as him. If those slaps were on his face, damn, that would be disfiguring. "Woo woo... Do you know me? I miss you so much, I find myself falling deeper in love with you, missing your smile, your casualness, everything about you." After venting for a while, Huang Xue suddenly started crying: "Grandfather's strange illness cannot be touched by anyone, even if you came, it would be the same, you will hate me, it's me who deceived you..." "Silly girl, I'm already here..." Watching Huang Xue talk to herself in sadness, Xia Liu longed to open the balcony door and enter the room. And then give her a warm embrace. But he forcefully held himself back; it wasn't the time for them to meet yet! He had to perform in front of her, in front of everyone! Let her see his attitude, let her know how much he missed her, and that he was capable of helping her...
