Chapter 134: Chapter 134: David Hart’s Plan

"Become your apprentice?" Yusuf Zuck was taken aback, as David Hart was actually offering to teach him medicine.

Logically, if he could learn medical skills from David Hart, then he’d have a way to make a living in the future. Even if he wasn’t destined for great wealth, he would definitely not have to worry about food and drink.

Moreover, it was obvious that David Hart was an extraordinary person, a Grandmaster Level figure. Otherwise, the Shepherd family wouldn’t have used military means to bring him here.

However, upon hearing David Hart’s offer, Yusuf Zuck hesitated, finding it difficult to decide. He knew his own nature well—he was someone who couldn’t stay idle, always on the move, so it was impossible for him to sit at home all day waiting for patients to come to his clinic.

"Indeed, you have the world’s best talent, and the kind heart of a healer. Therefore, learning medicine from me, you will become an exceptional teacher in the future," David Hart said, not noticing Yusuf Zuck’s conflicted expression, and continued nodding.

"Yusuf Zuck, hurry up and agree. Grandpa has only ever taken me as a disciple, and you’ll be the second one. You’ll be my junior brother after that, come on, kneel down and pay respects!" Jerome Hart eagerly winked at Yusuf Zuck. He knew what it meant to learn medicine from his grandfather. His grandfather’s medical skills were incredibly advanced; had it not been for his blindness, he would have had a place among the national greats in the State Health Institute.

"Grandpa Hart, I’m afraid I won’t have the time, I’m currently doing business, running around, and frankly, I haven’t planned on treating people for the rest of my life. I can help out temporarily and save someone, but if you want me to see patients and save lives daily, I can’t do it!" Yusuf Zuck courteously declined, speaking the plain truth from his heart.

"Damn," Jerome Hart muttered under his breath.

Hearing Yusuf Zuck’s words, David Hart sighed softly and said, "In that case, let’s forget about it. Medicine is a complex subject, with no end to learning. If you truly don’t have the time, you won’t be able to achieve anything substantial."

"Hmm, thank you, Grandpa Hart." Yusuf Zuck bowed to David Hart.

David Hart smiled and waved his hand: "My medical knowledge has essentially been passed down to Wen Shuai, so if you’re interested in things like the Silver Needle in the future, you can ask Wen Shuai. You guys are good friends. You should support and help each other in the future."

"Yes, Grandpa."

"Yes, Grandpa Hart."

Yusuf Zuck and Jerome Hart nodded at the same time, and Yusuf Zuck also understood that David Hart’s main goal was to have him use his special talents to assist Jerome Hart.

"Alright, take another look at how much bruising the patient still has," David Hart instructed, pointing to the patient’s head.

"Not much left, it’s almost gone, but there’s a slight residue," Yusuf Zuck replied.

"That’s normal. Just need some traditional medicine that promotes blood circulation and removes blood stasis. Hmm, you can go out first. Wen Shuai and I need to talk," David Hart suddenly signaled that Yusuf Zuck could leave.

Yusuf Zuck glanced at Jerome Hart, and Jerome Hart also looked up puzzledly at his grandfather.

Yusuf Zuck nodded, then left the room.

After Yusuf Zuck had left, David Hart suddenly said in a low voice, "Wen Shuai, you should stay in the capital from now on. I’ll speak to the Shepherd family later, and ask them to help set up a clinic for you."

"What?" Jerome Hart was stunned. Why suddenly set up a clinic in the capital?

"Why, Grandpa?" Jerome Hart asked quizzically.

"I’m entrusting you with a task, to pass on the medical skills you’ve learned to Yusuf Zuck!" David Hart said with a mysterious smile.

"Can’t we skip that, Grandpa? I’m your real grandson, and he’s not. Besides, didn’t you say that those who study medicine should have a kind heart? Those in the medical profession shouldn’t be greedy for gain. I’ve interacted with Yusuf Zuck, but I don’t really know what he’s like as a person. Moreover, why are we so eager to teach him our medical skills?"

"He does have a kind heart," David Hart said with a smile.

"How do you know?" Jerome Hart rolled his eyes and asked.

The old man chuckled, "He was willing to help a stranger in the middle of the night and paid a large deposit. That’s an act of bravery and kindness, showing his warm heart. Of course, the most important part was his behavior just now. He could have completely denied it. For him, the ability to see through the human body is surely his biggest secret, but why didn’t he deny it just now? Instead, he even helped me identify the acupoints?"

"This is benevolence. He didn’t want to witness a life fading away, so yes, he does have a good heart!"

"Oh, I’ll admit that. This kid does have a good heart!" Jerome Hart nodded in agreement.

"As for why I insist on passing the medical skills to him, it’s because I want you and him to complement each other. He could act as your eyes in the future, which would help you accumulate more experience in the field of medicine."

"Of course, I’m willing to pass on the medical skills, but not ’the way of qi harmony.’ So even if he learns all your medical skills, there won’t be a situation where the student starves his master to death. After all, without the way of qi harmony, the medical skills are just an empty shell. He might use his eyes to find the cause of an illness, but without qi within the body, he can’t eradicate the disease."

"That’s why I said you complement each other. The two of you working together would be a match made in heaven!"

"Grandpa, you’re truly wise!" Jerome Hart gave a thumbs up.

"Don’t flatter me. Living in the capital, you’re bound to face complicated problems, and with such a mix of people, you’ll have to be vigilant."

"Mhm, got it," Jerome Hart nodded.

"Also, about your girlfriend, break up with her sooner rather than later," the old man huffed.

"Why? I can’t just leave her behind irresponsibly!" Jerome Hart shook his head vigorously; his girlfriend had never been accepted by his grandfather, and he didn’t understand why.

"You’ll regret not listening to an elder. If you end up suffering, don’t come crying to me!"

"I won’t, absolutely not. When a man and a woman are together, it seems the woman should be the one at a disadvantage. What have I got to lose? Besides, I’m an adult. Why would I cry?"

Jerome Hart chuckled. He brought his girlfriend home once, but after only meeting her briefly, his grandfather told him to break up with her afterwards. His grandfather, being blind, didn’t even know what his girlfriend looked like; he made the hasty decision to break up after just a few words, so Jerome couldn’t accept it.

When Jerome asked his grandfather why, he remained silent, which troubled him greatly.

Meanwhile, while Jerome Hart was having a disjointed conversation with his grandfather, Yusuf Zuck, who had just left the sickroom, was called to another empty room by Erasmus Cooke. Accompanying Erasmus was a middle-aged woman in a cheongsam.

"Mr. Zuck, thank you for your help. Here is your one hundred thousand deposit," Erasmus Cooke gestured the woman in the cheongsam to hand over a paper bag, which contained exactly one hundred thousand in cash.

"I wanted to offer you more as a reward, but I..."

"Please, Mr. Cooke, don’t say such things," Yusuf Zuck immediately interrupted, smiling, "If you really gave me a reward, I wouldn’t accept it. Besides, I didn’t save someone for money. I’m taking back this one hundred thousand. You don’t need to say anything else. As long as everyone is safe, that’s a meaningful and proud act for me."

"Good, good!" Erasmus Cooke said with a flushed face and repeatedly praised as he patted Yusuf Zuck’s shoulder, "From now on, you are the benefactor of my son Xiuming. Leave me your phone number. Once Xiuming gets better, our whole family will invite you for a meal. Come and get to know our home!"
