Chapter 9: I Want Her to Stay Away from Me

Seeing Fang Yu remain silent, Tang Mingde gave a signal to Tang Si, who was standing behind Fang Yu.Tang Si immediately stepped forward."Uncle Si, don't!" Tang Xiaorou's face changed drastically when she saw Tang Si about to make a move against Fang Yu.Tang Si was an innate eighth-level martial artist! If he made a move, Fang Yu would undoubtedly suffer severe injuries!"Young man, this is your last chance. Tell the truth, who sent you and what is your purpose?" Tang Mingde furrowed his brow and asked.As a top-tier wealthy family, the Tangs had numerous enemies, both open and hidden.For Tang Mingde, if there was even a slight suspicion, he would investigate thoroughly and not let anyone off easily."I've told the truth, but you don't believe me. What can I do?" Fang Yu shrugged.Fang Yu's fearless appearance completely infuriated Tang Mingde."It seems you won't shed tears until you see the coffin," Tang Mingde's voice turned cold.Tang Si reached out his hand, ready to grab Fang Yu."Stop! Cough..."Just as a critical moment was about to unfold, a voice full of age rang out from upstairs, accompanied by coughing."Grandfather!" Tang Xiaorou's face lit up when she saw Tang Lao Ye, who was being pushed in a wheelchair by a servant, appearing at the staircase on the second floor."I am willing to let Fang Yu treat me," Tang Lao Ye looked at Tang Mingde and said.Tang Mingde's expression changed, and he hurriedly said, "Dad, how can we mess around with something like medical treatment? Regardless of whether this kid has ulterior motives, he's too young to be a doctor!""Mr. Tang is right. Although you are in the late stage of lung cancer, you cannot randomly believe in untrustworthy people. By following the chemotherapy plan I have designed for you and relaxing your mind and body, your lifespan can be extended..." Tang Lao Ye's lung cancer specialist from Beijing, Chen Jingxin, stood beside Tang Lao Ye and said."Dad, Dr. Chen is a professional. You should at least listen to what he has to say, right?" Tang Mingde said.Tang Lao Ye shook his head and said, "No matter how professional Dr. Chen is, at best, he can only make me live for another three months. I have personally witnessed Fang Yu's abilities, and I am willing to believe in him. Don't try to stop me."Tang Mingde wanted to say more, but when he saw Tang Lao Ye's determined gaze, he held back his words.Tang Lao Ye's health was already very poor, and he couldn't afford to make him angry again."Dad, I agree to let Fang Yu take a look, but both Dr. Chen and I must be present," Tang Mingde said.This was his bottom line."Fang Yu, do you agree to this...?" Tang Lao Ye looked at Fang Yu and asked."No problem, the sooner the better," Fang Yu stretched and yawned.His lazy demeanor made Tang Mingde and the others feel extremely displeased.Even Tang Xiaorou couldn't help but feel doubtful.He seemed too unreliable.A few minutes later, Fang Yu arrived on the second floor in Tang Lao Ye's study.Fang Yu took a chair and sat in front of Tang Lao Ye.Tang Mingde and the others stood at a distance of less than five meters on the side.Apart from Tang Si, Tang Mingde also called two bodyguards to be present, just in case Fang Yu suddenly attacked.Fang Yu grabbed Tang Lao Ye's right wrist and began feeling his pulse.Seeing this scene, Chen Jingxin next to him showed a sneer of disdain.Tang Lao Ye had lung cancer, so what was the use of feeling his pulse?Unfortunately, Chen Jingxin could only see the surface.In reality, during the process of feeling the pulse, Fang Yu had already infused his true qi into Tang Lao Ye's pulse, allowing the true qi to circulate through Tang Lao Ye's body, thereby discerning his physical condition.Strictly speaking, the release of true qi could only be achieved by cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage or above.However, Fang Yu had been able to release true qi since the hundredth level of the Qi Refining stage.A minute later, Fang Yu withdrew his hand."The situation is not looking good."Upon hearing this, Chen Jingxin became even more disdainful.He had always looked down on traditional Chinese medicine, considering it pseudoscience, a group of old Daoists pretending to be mysterious.And everything Fang Yu was doing at the moment only confirmed his opinion.Just feeling the pulse and saying that the situation was not looking good was something anyone could do!"Ahem, let me say a few words... young man, what did you find out? Where exactly is the problem? Can you please explain in detail? Let me learn from you and your traditional Chinese medicine," Chen Jingxin spoke with sarcasm, his eyes full of contempt.Tang Xiaorou anxiously looked at Fang Yu, afraid that he wouldn't be able to explain."The cancer cells have spread throughout your body, especially near the spine. The reason why you are unable to walk is because the cancer cells have eroded your spine. Additionally, you likely have high blood pressure and a minor cerebral infarction..." Fang Yu listed all of Tang Lao Ye's ailments as if he had seen the medical reports himself.At first, Chen Jingxin wore a mocking expression, but as he listened, his face gradually changed, becoming shocked, and in the end, his eyes widened in disbelief.Everything Fang Yu said about the symptoms was correct! This included some symptoms that had only appeared in the past two days!Tang Xiaorou couldn't fully understand, so she looked at Tang Mingde, only to see him standing dumbfounded."How is this possible? Did someone leak Grandfather's medical reports?" Liang Rong exclaimed loudly.Tang Mingde regained his senses and looked at Fang Yu. Besides shock, there was more excitement in his eyes.Liang Rong's explanation was simply impossible.The complete medical reports of Tang Lao Ye were personally kept by Tang Mingde in a safe, and besides the attending doctor, no one else had the opportunity to touch them.Moreover, Fang Yu mentioned several symptoms that had only appeared recently.This young man really has skills!"Given your condition, it is impossible to cure you," Fang Yu spoke again at this moment.Tang Mingde's hope, which had just ignited, was instantly extinguished.Tang Xiaorou's eyes turned red."I told you this kid was useless. He can see the disease but can't cure it. Then what's the use of having you?" Liang Rong sneered from the side."In that case... how long do I have left?" Tang Lao Ye asked with difficulty."I will give you acupuncture first, then I will give you a prescription. If you can obtain all the medicinal ingredients listed on the prescription and take them once a day... you should be able to live for another ten years or so," Fang Yu said.Ten years!?Tang Lao Ye was momentarily stunned, then overwhelmed with joy!Having been diagnosed by numerous doctors with less than three months to live, he could still live for another ten years!?"Can I really trust you, Fang Yu...?" Tang Xiaorou's eyes filled with tears as she asked."The precondition is that you can acquire all the medicinal ingredients listed on the prescription, some of which are likely quite rare now," Fang Yu said."This is absolutely not a problem! Even if they are rare, we will find a way to acquire them! Fang Yu... please give my father acupuncture as soon as possible," Tang Mingde said excitedly.One hour later, Fang Yu walked out of Tang Lao Ye's study.During the acupuncture process, Tang Lao Ye had coughed up a mouthful of blood, which greatly startled Tang Mingde and the others.But this mouthful of blood contained accumulated toxins, and after it was coughed up, Tang Lao Ye felt much lighter, and his complexion became slightly healthier.Chen Jingxin used professional instruments to measure Tang Lao Ye's condition and found that all the dangerous indicators had decreased significantly.At this point, Tang Mingde and the others completely believed in Fang Yu. It was important to note that Tang Lao Ye had taken countless medicines, but none of them had produced the same effect as Fang Yu's acupuncture.Chen Jingxin made an excuse and left the Tang family in a dejected state.Although Liang Rong still looked down on Fang Yu, she didn't dare to say much openly.After writing down the prescription, Fang Yu was about to leave."Fang Shenyi, please don't take offense to my previous misunderstanding and impoliteness," Tang Mingde said sincerely.Fang Yu waved his hand, indicating that he didn't mind.Tang Mingde then took out a blank check and handed it over to Fang Yu."Fang Shenyi, this is a blank check. You can fill in whatever amount you want. It is your reward for treating my father.""Money is not important. I just hope that Tang Xiaorou won't forget the promise she made to me," Fang Yu looked at Tang Xiaorou on the side and said."Haha, you two have a private deal? That's a good thing. You young people should communicate more with each other," Tang Mingde laughed.He knew that Fang Yu was a rare medical genius, and it would be beneficial for Tang Xiaorou to get closer to him."It's not really a deal. I just want her to stay away from me," Fang Yu said.
