Chapter 346: After Modification: Chapter 346 Declaring Stance

Before Sunx Qianjin could speak, his son impatiently answered, “Of course both illnesses need to be treated!”

Sunx Shangqiang also glanced at Wu Xiaoyu with confusion, silently grumbling, “Isn’t that obvious?”

“Since we invited you to treat him, obviously we hope grandfather can be completely healthy. Why would we only treat one illness?”

Seeing the crowd’s confusion, Wu Xiaoyu shamelessly said, “The consultation fee for treating two illnesses is very different from treating just one!”

The middle-aged man, having recently witnessed Wu Xiaoyu’s skills and initially feeling respect, couldn’t help but feel some contempt seeing his greed.

If you can cure my father’s illness, riches and honor would naturally follow. Yet you’re so miserly, isn’t that detestable?

With a winning hand, you make foolish moves, truly pitiful and lamentable! Perhaps this is the inherent flaw of a farmer!

Wu Xiaoyu’s intention to demand a high fee wasn’t just about money but also to show that he wouldn’t become dependent on the Sunx Family.

Previously helping Elder Mu cure a chronic illness and accepting Mu Zhuangfei’s invitation to train special forces was out of respect for soldiers, not a desire to join the Mu Family!

Since he’s not planning to rely on the Mu Family, he naturally wouldn’t rely on the Sunx Family either. He merely aims to turn their favor into his own support.

With his current medical skills and martial prowess, even if the two families fail to recruit him, they wouldn’t dare get angry. Instead, they’d try even harder to win him over.

Then, when he needs them, they would eagerly come to his aid!

“Elder Mu’s fatal chronic illness was only one, so the consultation fee was one million. You have two major illnesses; if you want to cure them both, it’ll be two million!” Wu Xiaoyu said nonchalantly.

Two million is a drop in the bucket for the Sunx Family, after all, Sunx Qianjin’s two sons-in-law are CEOs of listed companies.

What stunned Sunx Qianjin was Wu Xiaoyu’s proactive mention of Old Mu and the consultation fee for treating him.

Is he trying to reassure me, showing he hasn’t aligned with the Mu Family, or is he suggesting I should give up trying to recruit him?

If Wu Xiaoyu can’t cure my illness, everything is negotiable. But if he does cure me, I’ll have to work hard to recruit him!

One has to understand that all the bosses value their lives. If I can secure such a Divine Doctor, I’ll gain even more standing among them!

Sunx Qianjin, nearing eighty, is considered healthy and long-lived compared to ordinary people, but far from his own expectations.

Currently, the Sunx Family is thriving in all fields, envied by many, but to Sunx Qianjin, it feels precarious.

Everyone except him in the Sunx Family is mediocre, unable to sustain the huge family business. He must bear the burden of grooming his successor, so he cannot die yet!

“Only two million, no problem!” Sunx Qianjin contemplated for a moment before agreeing.

Seeing his straightforwardness, Wu Xiaoyu replied without holding back, “Alright! I can treat you right now! You have both rheumatism and myocardial infarction, correct?”

The middle-aged man, hearing this, couldn’t hide his shock, exclaiming, “Just by taking the pulse, you can diagnose the illness? That’s incredible!”

Sunx Shangqiang, standing beside his father, recalled that indeed, his grandfather’s illness was rheumatism or something like that!

It seems Wu Xiaoyu is truly skilled, justifying his father’s humble request for his help.

The white-haired elder, once Sunx Qianjin’s bodyguard, was well aware of Sunx Qianjin’s illnesses. Seeing Wu Xiaoyu accurately pinpoint the commander’s chronic illnesses, he felt deeply dejected.

Although he wished for Old Commander’s health, he hoped to be the one to cure him.

He went so far as to break family rules, teaching the entry techniques of Canghe Skill to the old commander, hoping to alleviate his pain and restore the family’s honor!

Now, Wu Xiaoyu’s sudden appearance has disrupted all his painstaking efforts.

His grandson, a once-in-a-century talent in the family, was rendered a cripple by Wu Xiaoyu in one move, reduced to uselessness.

With the old commander’s illness now unveiled by Wu Xiaoyu, if he truly cures the commander, the elder’s hopes would be entirely shattered!

The white-haired elder, trembling, looked to Old Commander, hoping he would change his mind and reprimand Wu Xiaoyu, even driving him away!

But for Sunx Qianjin, a dying man who sees a glimmer of hope for life, it’s like a drowning person grasping at the last straw. How could he give up now?

Sunx Qianjin said, “Yes, I indeed have these two chronic illnesses. Just tell me the treatment method!”

Sunx Shangqiang and his son anxiously watched Wu Xiaoyu, praying in their hearts for a cure… a cure!

Wu Xiaoyu continued, “The myocardial infarction is relatively easy to treat. I only need to apply acupuncture a few times to stimulate the cardiovascular nerves, along with a few prescriptions of traditional Chinese medicine!”

“But rheumatism, mostly an autoimmune disease, is more troublesome to treat. It won’t be effective overnight and requires a gradual approach!”

Sunx Qianjin had consulted countless famous doctors, all helpless against his two illnesses, resorting only to conservative treatment methods.

Hearing that Wu Xiaoyu could completely cure his myocardial infarction, Sunx Qianjin could hardly contain his excitement.

Moreover, he understood that rheumatism, being an autoimmune disease, was difficult to cure, so he wasn’t too disappointed.

“To cure the myocardial infarction is already beyond my expectations. Rheumatism, though uncomfortable, won’t easily send me to King Yan!” Sunx Qianjin laughed heartily.

Hearing this, Wu Xiaoyu sighed internally, “It seems he fears not pain but death!”

“Alright, have someone fetch some silver needles!” Seeing everyone staring at him in a daze, Wu Xiaoyu said to Sunx Qianjin.

“Ok! Shangqiang, go find someone to bring the silver needles!” Sunx Qianjin instructed Sunx Shangqiang while leading Wu Xiaoyu to sit in the garden pavilion.

Supporting his grandson, the white-haired elder didn’t know whether to stay or leave, standing there in a daze.

Though Sunx Qianjin cherished life, he was also very loyal, turning to the white-haired elder, saying, “Little Sunx, take Wu Ying back to rest first!”

The white-haired elder, seeing the situation settled, reluctantly left, filled with countless grievances and jealousy. But after all, the world never has a stage for the weak.

Sitting in the pavilion with Sunx Qianjin and his son, Sunx Qianjin spoke again, “Miracle Doctor Wu, does the Canghe Skill I practice truly have the effect of prolonging life?”

This white-haired elder had no previous grudge against Wu Xiaoyu, yet suddenly became aggressive. His grandson even tried to kill Wu Xiaoyu without a word.

Wu Xiaoyu didn’t think he needed a saintly heart. Now, seeing the chance for revenge and righteousness, how could he let it go?

Pretending to be mysterious, he said, “Sir, the Canghe Skill indeed has the effect of prolonging life; otherwise, the old gentleman wouldn’t be so vigorous!”

Sunx Qianjin, hearing this, was about to feel relieved when Wu Xiaoyu continued, “However, the Canghe Skill you practiced seems to lack the agility of Inner Sect boxing. It appears to have been truncated!”
