Chapter 952: 947 Familiar Recipe

Afterward, Gu Chen and Wei Tianfu left, exiting the place together.

At this moment, Wei Tianfu’s complexion was a sallow yellow.

Because his mind was still replaying the events.

The words that Gu Chen had just spoken, he felt that Gu Chen’s words had been too forceful.

It gave him a feeling that he couldn’t quite describe in a moment’s time.

He felt that the things Gu Chen had said were like he was asking for trouble.

He couldn’t even begin to imagine or understand how Gu Chen managed to utter such assertive words earlier.

It had been who knows how long since anybody dared to speak to the old master in that manner.

What kind of status and authority did the old master have?

Who were the people that associated with him?

Gu Chen’s daring to speak in such a way, honestly, he felt that even if the old master were to retaliate against Gu Chen in the future,

he wouldn’t be surprised, which is why at this moment he also curiously asked Gu Chen.

"Didn’t I tell you to be polite? Why would you talk to them like that?

The old master is someone of high virtue and respect, not someone you can afford to offend.

You could easily bring disaster upon yourself.

Offending that telecommunications group is one thing, but offending the old master,

then you really have no chance of ever turning things around."

He went ahead and said this directly to Gu Chen.

The seriousness in his tone was palpable.

You could feel how tense he had been just a moment ago.

To him, the situation they had just been in could really be considered extremely precarious.

After all, to put it simply, the words spoken by Gu Chen were highly disrespectful!

Involving oneself in such matters, Gu Chen could very likely face retaliation.

He thought all this was quite normal, but when Gu Chen heard it,

there wasn’t much of a reaction from him.

For Gu Chen, he had long grown accustomed to these kinds of situations.

Therefore, at that time, Gu Chen still appeared as serene as before.

In the end, he continued speaking.

"I believe that Uncle Ye is not someone who is petty and narrow-minded.

As long as his illness can be cured, then everything else is negotiable.

Of course, if I can’t cure his illness, even if I haven’t offended him,

he wouldn’t let me off easily, right?

So, since it’s come to this, why should I bother making myself so uncomfortable?

It’s better to speak directly and clearly up front."

At this time, Gu Chen laid out his thoughts logically.

When Wei Tianfu heard Gu Chen’s explanation,

he never imagined that Gu Chen would see it this way.

He found Gu Chen’s thinking quite innovative, and in that instant,

he didn’t know what to say.

So he could only heave a helpless sigh, realizing there was no use

wasting any more words on the matter.

As for what happens next, it all depended on Gu Chen’s competence.

He wasn’t sure whether Gu Chen could really cure the illness or not.

If Gu Chen failed, then it would truly be over.

He sighed helplessly; in truth, he didn’t feel afraid inside.

However, he felt that if this matter wasn’t handled well,

it would have some impact, more or less.

He hoped that Gu Chen would approach this matter with the utmost caution.

Because this matter is really serious, it could potentially lead to a grave mistake.

However, at this time, Gu Chen’s behavior was somewhat perplexing, leaving one uncertain whether he was genuine or feigning.

So, all one could do was to watch from the sidelines.

As for the rest, it would have to wait until later.

Under Gu Chen’s seemingly indifferent demeanor,

he knew exactly what was going on inside his head.

He was fully aware of the current situation,

and understood the challenges he was facing.

One could say that it was too late for regrets now.

No matter what, he had to confront the situation head-on.

He was certainly aware of how complicated and serious his current physical condition was.

And it was precisely because of this that Gu Chen had to appear more relaxed.

Because his only hope was in his traditional Chinese medicine.

He wasn’t sure whether the herbal medicine would help, but if it did, that was great; if not, there was nothing he could do.

With that, he went straight back to the hotel.

After arriving at the hotel, Wei Tianfu did not disturb Gu Chen’s peace of mind.

It was as if everything was left to Gu Chen,

allowing him to make his own decisions, while Gu Chen waited and pondered.

About the issues he might face in the future, he kept a calm and composed demeanor,

which was not at all like the state he was supposed to be in at the moment.

Gu Chen seemed to have changed from the person he was initially.

There was a slight sense of unfamiliarity.

However, Gu Chen didn’t feel particularly miserable about these things.

He thought the situation wasn’t too bad, and it couldn’t get much worse.

"System, can the power of Spiritual Spring cure the current condition?" he asked directly to the system at this time.

He obviously wanted to hear the system’s opinion on the matter.

But the system, after hearing his question, didn’t have a definitive answer.

"At present, the system’s Spiritual Spring is able to treat high-risk and dangerous conditions,"

the system replied to Gu Chen’s question, giving him some idea of the situation.

He roughly understood what was happening now.

But if asked to describe it in detail, he couldn’t articulate it.

After all, things had reached this point, and the rest was really unpredictable.

And so, the night passed.

Everything seemed calm.

But to Gu Chen, it felt like the deceptive calm before the storm.

He knew that everything was just beginning, and the real challenges had yet to surface.

The next morning, he went straight to the place where he could get the herbal medicine.

After all, that was the only type of place to buy herbal medicine.

Once there, Gu Chen quickly assessed the situation.

The herbal shop wasn’t very big, just a small establishment.

Upon arriving, Gu Chen immediately asked the pharmacist,

"What Chinese herbs are used for lung cancer?"

He posed this question to the pharmacist.

The pharmacist was momentarily stunned,

then looked at Gu Chen skeptically, as if feeling that there was something off about him.

It was as if he doubted whether Gu Chen understood what lung cancer was.

Curing something like cancer with herbs would only mean slowly building up the therapeutic effects bit by bit.

"I can prescribe a formula for you to try, but whether it will work, I can’t be sure," he said.
