Urban Extraordinary Immortal Doctor -
Chapter 314: Please Stay
Chapter 314: Chapter 314: Please Stay
The acupuncture and massage room at Yanjing Hospital used to be a "clear-water government office," with few patients. After Fang Bai started his internship there, some of the patients he cured were grateful and acted as free publicists, recommending their friends and family to seek treatment there.
As a result, the once obscure acupuncture and massage room at Yanjing Hospital suddenly became renowned, spreading by word of mouth among some Yanjing citizens. Though some of the guests present had never personally sought treatment there, they had heard about it from friends.
"No way, could the skilled Doctor Fang they’re talking about be this guy right here?"
"Could there be a mistake? Perhaps there’s another old TCM doctor at Yanjing Hospital surnamed Fang?"
"But my mom said that the Doctor Fang who cured her joint pain is around twenty years old!"
"Hmm, my aunt also mentioned Doctor Fang is very young."
"So does that make him a famous doctor?"
"Without real ability, one wouldn’t dare climb to Mount Liang. With Doctor Fang’s confidence, he must have some true skill!"
The guests whispered among themselves, and some looked at Fang Bai with eyes that no longer held any contempt or ridicule.
Shen Huanian, Xie Yifeng, and Wang Dong had just been fervently belittling Fang Bai, causing many of the guests to look down on him. They were feeling smug when, all of a sudden, the mood shifted and guests began speaking up for Fang Bai, making their faces turn sour.
Shen Huanian had looked into Fang Bai’s background and knew that he studied at Zhongzhou Medical College and his family ran a traditional Chinese medicine clinic, so he had some medical knowledge. However, it couldn’t have been very profound; otherwise, he would have been famous already.
Fang Bai’s internship at Yanjing Hospital, where he cured a few patients and became somewhat prominent, might just be a fortunate coincidence, and not necessarily a testament to his medical expertise.
"The bidding for one treatment opportunity with Doctor Fang starts at one million. The auction begins now!"
It was getting late, and there were still items belonging to some other guests waiting to be auctioned, so the auctioneer wanted to finish this round quickly and continue with the next items.
In the auctioneer’s view, Fang Bai’s audacity to auction off a chance for him to treat someone for the starting bid of one million was sheer arrogance. If it weren’t for the presence of his few friends to support him, it was doubtful whether his "opportunity" would even sell.
"Two million!"
The first to speak up was the host, Jiang Xiaoyu.
In Jiang Xiaoyu’s mind, Fang Bai was her best friend Ye Wumei’s "Little Lover," and it wouldn’t look good for Ye Wumei if Fang Bai failed to attract bids. As the host, it was her duty to show support.
For Jiang Xiaoyu, whose wealth was over a hundred million, two million was nothing. If no one else bid higher, she would consider the two million a donation to charity.
"Three million!"
Qin Shan was the second to join the bidding.
Qin Shan’s goal wasn’t to secure the opportunity for Fang Bai’s medical service; rather, he wanted to build a connection with Fang Bai and then inquire about the origins of the Luminous Pearl.
The Luminous Pearl Fang Bai presented was too enticing for Qin Shan. If Fang Bai knew where to find more pearls like it, Qin Shan would not hesitate to pay ten or a hundred times the current bid.
Seeing Qin Shan participate, Jiang Xiaoyu let out a sigh of relief. With both her and Qin Shan raising the stakes, Fang Bai would maintain his dignity.
Just as Jiang Xiaoyu was about to hold back and leave the "opportunity" to Qin Shan, her phone vibrated – it was a text from Ye Wumei.
"Doctor Fang Bai is very skilled in medicine; you must win this opportunity! Trust me!"
There was only this one line of text in the message. Jiang Xiaoyu glanced at it before she put away her phone and looked up at Ye Wumei, who was nodding earnestly at her.
As her best friend of many years, Jiang Xiaoyu understood Ye Wumei very well and knew that when she showed that expression, it meant she was definitely not joking.
"Five million!"
Jiang Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment but chose to believe Ye Wumei and immediately raised her hand and spoke up.
Qin Shan was taken aback. He had shown support for Fang Bai because he wanted to make a connection with him and had not really intended to compete for the chance to have Fang Bai treat a disease. Seeing Jiang Xiaoyu’s determined attitude and her apparent desire to win the opportunity, he spread his hands and gave up the bidding.
With Qin Shan bowing out, and no one else stepping in, Jiang Xiaoyu smoothly secured the opportunity for a medical treatment by Fang Bai.
If Jiang Xiaoyu had won a treatment opportunity from one of the four renowned doctors, the other guests would only have felt envy, but Fang Bai, even if he had a bit of a reputation, how could he be compared with the four renowned doctors? Thus, the other guests thought Jiang Xiaoyu was a bit foolish.
However, Hua Yi felt that the money Jiang Xiaoyu spent was very well worth it.
Lu Jianfeng, Dongfang Rushi, and Ye Wumei, on the other hand, knew that Jiang Xiaoyu had picked up an incredible bargain, as if she had gained an additional life-saving charm.
The subsequent auction didn’t feature any particularly attention-grabbing items, and the atmosphere at the event remained tranquil and undisturbed.
After the charity event ended, it was already late. The guests greeted Jiang Xiaoyu and dispersed one after another.
"Brother Fang, please wait a moment! Please wait!"
Ye Wumei and Fang Bai were just about to leave when Qin Shan quickly approached them.
As Qin Yaorao’s elder, Fang Bai naturally wouldn’t slight him. He stopped, turned around, and said with a smile, "Mr. Qin, what’s the matter?"
Qin Shan presented his business card, gave a brief self-introduction, and then said with a laugh, "Brother Fang, I won’t hide it from you, I’m very interested in that Luminous Pearl of yours. If you have time later, how about we find a place to sit down and talk?"
Looking at Qin Shan’s expression and hearing his words, Fang Bai knew he might have sensed the strand of Essence Energy contained within the Luminous Pearl. He nodded and said, "Mr. Qin can call me anytime in the future; if I’m free, I will definitely honor the appointment promptly!"
Qin Shan took note of Fang Bai’s contact information and chatted casually with him for a few more moments before leaving overjoyed.
Fang Bai was a man of his word. He had promised Luminous Pearls to Dongfang Rushi, Lu Jianfeng, and Ye Wumei, so he took the opportunity when no one was paying attention to him to proactively find Dongfang Rushi and Lu Jianfeng and handed each of them a Luminous Pearl.
Lu Jianfeng, upon receiving the Luminous Pearl, was so excited that he beamed from ear to ear and insisted on taking Fang Bai out for a few more drinks, declining to return until drunk, which Fang Bai politely refused.
As for Dongfang Rushi, holding the Luminous Pearl Fang Bai had given her, she didn’t show much excitement on her face but simply said "Thank you" lightly. It wasn’t until she entered her bulletproof business vehicle under the escort of her bodyguards that a captivating smile flashed across her lips.
On the way home, she gently caressed the Luminous Pearl in her hand, her mind seemed to wander, her gaze unfocused, deep in thought about something.
As Dongfang Rushi’s personal secretary, and sitting in the same car with her, Zhao Ya couldn’t help but feel puzzled by her behavior.
However, as someone who had experience with love, Zhao Ya soon realized—her boss, who possessed both beauty and intelligence, was yearning for a man!
(PS: I recommend the urban fiction master "meticulous" and his new book "The Super Warrior of Beauty," I heard it’s good, everyone can check it out! Also, a plea for votes!)
