Chapter 313: Chapter 313: Fang Bai’s Second Auction Item
Ye Wumei, elated after receiving Fang Bai’s promise, shifted her attention away from the Luminous Pearl on the auction table and indeed remained silent when Qin Shan called out a bid of "80 million."
Seeing that Dongfang Rushi and Ye Wumei, the two most formidable competitors, no longer bid, Qin Shan couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief and successfully won the Luminous Pearl for himself.
"Old Wang, what’s the second item Mr. Fang is auctioning? Can you tell us now?"
Lu Jianfeng, constrained by his own financial resources, had missed out on the Luminous Pearl offered by Fang Bai, and was somewhat discontented. He was looking forward to Fang Bai’s second item and asked impatiently.
The "Old Wang" mentioned by Lu Jianfeng was the auctioneer hosting this charity auction event.
The auctioneer glanced over at Fang Bai, and after seeing his slight nod, cleared his throat and spoke loudly, "Alright, then I’ll tell you: the second thing Mr. Fang is auctioning... it’s not an item but an opportunity!"
"Opportunity?"
"What does that mean?"
"Humph, just a play for attention, trying to be obscure!"
"An opportunity can be sold for money too? Who does he think he is?"
"If he were the Prime Minister, offering me a chance to be mayor, I’d actually be willing to buy it. Haha..."
"Just made a little name for himself and he thinks he’s somebody? Hehe, truly naive!"
...
As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, the guests at the venue started to talk amongst themselves, while Shen Huanian, Xie Yifeng, and Wang Dong sneered sarcastically and mocked to their heart’s content.
On the contrary, those who knew Fang Bai’s true abilities—Lu Jianfeng, Hua Yi, Dongfang Rushi, and Ye Wumei—did not speak, but their heartbeats quickened and their expressions became increasingly expectant, eager to hear exactly what kind of opportunity Fang Bai was auctioning.
They knew that an opportunity offered by someone like Fang Bai, skilled in both medicine and martial arts, was absolutely beyond monetary valuation.
"Mr. Fang says he is a doctor, and he’s auctioning off an opportunity for him to provide medical treatment! The starting bid is one million!"
After the auctioneer made this announcement, he couldn’t help but look towards Fang Bai, thinking this young man was taking himself too seriously, actually auctioning an opportunity for medical treatment with a starting bid of one million... Did he think he was a Divine Doctor like those of the four great National Doctors?
Not only the auctioneer thought this way, but the vast majority of guests at the event shared the same sentiment.
"Do you know what kind of doctor this Mr. Fang is? An intern!"
"Haha, who would have thought that interns nowadays are so full of themselves!"
"Not only is he an intern, but he is also from the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine, specifically the Acupuncture and Tuina Division!"
"What? From the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine? And the Acupuncture and Tuina Division? Hahaha..."
"An opportunity for medical treatment, starting at one million... Haha, which hospital’s intern is this arrogant, huh?"
"It seems to be Yanjing Hospital!"
...
Shen Huanian, Xie Yifeng, and Wang Dong had formed a united front at this time, speaking to Fang Bai with cold sarcasm and belittlement. They were as if invigorated by an adrenaline rush, their spirits uplifted, completely reversing their previously despondent demeanor.
Lu Jianfeng glared at the three men, and had it not been for Fang Bai secretly signaling to him earlier to not participate in this auction and to keep quiet about Fang Bai’s medical expertise, he would have long since jumped up and cursed at them pointing at their noses.
Similarly, Fang Bai had conveyed the same message to both Dongfang Rushi and Ye Wumei, telling them he considered them friends and would definitely help if they or their loved ones fell sick, so there was no need for them to get involved in the auction.
According to Fang Bai’s thinking, he intended to leave this opportunity to those present who were destined for it, to see who would have the discerning eye to grasp this rare opportunity.
Although Dongfang Rushi felt immense gratitude towards Fang Bai in her heart, she maintained her usual indifferent demeanor on the surface. Yet, the look she gave Shen Huanian and the others was even colder than before.
Ye Wumei deeply frowned upon hearing Shen Huanian and his group jeering at Fang Bai, her pretty face growing chilly. Had Fang Bai not signaled her to restrain herself, she might have already rushed over to confront the three men.
If words failed her, she wouldn’t mind physically beating up these three distasteful and annoying men into pig-heads.
No one would expect that Ye Wumei, a gentle and elegant figure in the eyes of millions of fans, had a violent streak in her bones, especially since becoming a Martial Artist, this inclination seemed to have grown even stronger.
Hua Yi, although reconciled with Fang Bai, had not yet become true "friends," hence he didn’t receive Fang Bai’s message.
Nonetheless, knowing full well Fang Bai’s prowess in Martial Arts and medicine, Hua Yi found Shen Huanian and his friends to be nothing more than jumping clowns, a ridiculous sight to behold.
It was a joke, for Fang Bai’s skill and medical expertise were even something his grandfather Hua Chun felt inferior to. What grounds did these three fools have to mock and belittle Fang Bai?
The Hua Family and the Shen Family had always maintained a good cooperative relationship, and Hua Yi had always had a good rapport with Shen Huanian. However, after this incident, Hua Yi decided to distance himself from Shen Huanian and to keep him at arm’s length.
Moreover, Hua Yi had no plans to participate in this particular auction. After all, Rejuvenation Hall was a renowned medical family in Huaxia, and as someone from a lineage of medical inheritance, participating would seem ludicrous and would not reflect well on Rejuvenation Hall and the Hua Family’s reputation.
Other than Lu Jianfeng and his peers, the ones most concerned with Fang Bai were Qin Shan and Jiang Xiaoyu.
Both hailing from affluent families, their ability to read people was top-notch. From the expressions and demeanors of people like Dongfang Rushi and Ye Wumei, they could sense that Fang Bai was no ordinary person.
However, given his young age and his practice of Traditional Medicine, Qin Shan and Jiang Xiaoyu remained skeptical about his claimed superb medical skills.
"Is he really the doctor Fang from the Acupuncture and Massage Department of Yanjing Hospital?"
After overhearing the sarcastic exchanges of Shen Huanian and his group, suddenly a female guest inquired.
"What’s this, Miss Li? You know Doctor Fang?" a male guest sitting next to Miss Li asked.
Miss Li shook her head and replied, "I don’t know him, but my mom does. She’s had joint pain for over a decade, visited all the major hospitals across the country without any relief, then someone recommended Doctor Fang from Yanjing Hospital, claiming his medical skills were outstanding. She gave it a try, and after just a few visits, she was miraculously cured."
Upon hearing Miss Li’s words, another female guest at the adjacent table lit up and suddenly interjected, "Now that you mention it, I remember something similar. My aunt had suffered from back pain for many years, to the point she couldn’t walk straight. She recently sought out Doctor Fang at the massage and acupuncture department of Yanjing Hospital and actually got better. My aunt has been praising Doctor Fang ever since, calling him a Divine Doctor..."
