Inside the elevator, Uncle Fu continuously sized up Ye Feng with his eyes, and for some reason, he felt a palpably unsettling aura emanating from this shabbily dressed young man.
Seemingly noticing Uncle Fu's gaze, Ye Feng turned his head and smiled at him.
Ye Feng could tell that Uncle Fu was no ordinary man. Whether it was from the way he walked, the calluses on his hands, or his sharp gaze, all signs indicated that Uncle Fu was a master!
"Qingxue, may I ask who this is..." Uncle Fu smiled at Ye Feng, then turned to ask Fang Qingxue.
At this moment, Fang Qingxue had completely calmed down, holding Ye Feng's arm as she spoke:
"Uncle Fu, this is Ye Feng, I invited him to treat Grandfather Zhao's illness!"
What?
Uncle Fu was stunned, almost thinking he had misheard.
Ye Feng looked to be under twenty, and Fang Qingxue had actually invited him to treat Old Zhao's illness, this...
"Qingxue, it's not that Uncle Fu doesn't trust this young man, but as you know, Grandfather Zhao's status is delicate. What if something goes wrong, this..."
Uncle Fu clearly didn't believe that Ye Feng could treat Old Zhao's illness, and he was now diplomatically advising Fang Qingxue.
"Uncle Fu, rest assured! Brother Ye will definitely be able to do it, I believe in him!" Fang Qingxue ignored Uncle Fu's skepticism, hugging Ye Feng's arm and smiling.
Ye Feng could understand the other party's doubt too, but he didn't mind and simply shrugged.
Ding...
As the three of them were talking, a crisp sound rang out. The elevator had reached the seventh floor.
The elevator doors opened, and the three of them stepped out.
"Qingxue!"
Just as they had come out, a voice filled with joy reached them.
From a corridor nearby, a handsome young man quickly approached. His eyes were firmly fixed on Fang Qingxue, filled with eagerness.
"Zhao Tian, what are you doing here? Weren't you abroad?"
Seeing the young man, Fang Qingxue's eyebrows furrowed.
This young man was named Zhao Tian, the grandson of Old Zhao, and he had grown up playing with Fang Qingxue. However, as they grew up, Zhao Tian had always pursued Fang Qingxue relentlessly, but she was not interested and had never accepted his advances.
Last year, Zhao Tian went to study in the United States, yet unexpectedly, he turned up here.
"I just came back a few days ago. It's not fun overseas, it's uninteresting. I'm not leaving this time!"
Zhao Tian's gaze toward Fang Qingxue grew increasingly fervent. The current Fang Qingxue was even more beautiful than when he had left the country. Moreover, her figure had developed superbly, curvaceous in all the right places, simply the goddess of his dreams.
Fang Qingxue felt extremely uncomfortable under Zhao Tian's fervent gaze, and she immediately drew closer to Ye Feng's arm.
Only then did Zhao Tian notice Ye Feng beside Fang Qingxue. He turned his gaze and his brows slowly furrowed:
"Qingxue, who is this?"
"Ye Feng, I invited him to treat Grandfather Zhao!" Fang Qingxue said calmly.
"Treat an illness?" Zhao Tian was taken aback, then sized up Ye Feng for a moment, a smirk forming on his lips:
"Tell me, Qingxue, you're not mistaken, right? You actually invited a country doctor to treat my grandfather!"
"What country doctor! Zhao Tian, don't talk nonsense here!" Fang Qingxue's expression gradually darkened, she sneaked a glance at Ye Feng and, seeing that he wasn't angry, she felt relieved.
"Brother Ye, let's go!"
Fang Qingxue evidently didn't want to waste words with Zhao Tian, so she immediately pulled Ye Feng and headed toward room 709.
"Wait!"
Zhao Tian, seeing the intimate manner between Fang Qingxue and Ye Feng, felt a surge of anger, his expression instantly turning icy. He quickly took a few steps and blocked Fang Qingxue and Ye Feng.
"Zhao Tian, what are you doing!"
Fang Qingxue saw Zhao Tian blocking the way and shouted harshly.
"Qingxue, you can go in, but he can't! What qualifications does a country doctor have to treat my grandfather!"
Zhao Tian looked at Ye Feng with a cold expression, then spoke to Uncle Fu:
"Uncle Fu, take him away. My grandfather is not someone that a mere bumpkin can meet!"
Hearing Zhao Tian's words, Fang Qingxue's pretty face turned deathly pale. She hadn't anticipated encountering so many troubles when asking Ye Feng to treat Old Master Zhao:
"Zhao Tian, don't go too far! Brother Ye was invited by me. I dare anyone to try and drive him away!"
Fang Qingxue stepped in front of Ye Feng, her face full of rage, like an angry little tiger.
Seeing this scene, Uncle Fu gave a bitter smile. He knew the temper of his young master Zhao Tian. It surely must have irked him to see Fang Qingxue and Ye Feng being close:
"Young Master, just let the young man have a look at the old master. If he can cure him that would be great, and even if he can't, it's no big deal!"
Zhao Tian's face turned the color of iron. It was the first time he had seen Fang Qingxue defending a young man like this, and his anger was imaginable.
However, he also knew that if he really drove Ye Feng away this time, he would completely offend Fang Qingxue, and he would lose all chances in the future:
"Fine! I will let him go in! But I must speak frankly first!"
Saying that, Zhao Tian approached Ye Feng, his gaze icy as he looked at him:
"If you can cure my grandfather, the Zhao Family will reward you handsomely! However, if you make my grandfather's condition worse, I will... kill you!"
Ye Feng looked at Zhao Tian in front of him, his brow gradually furrowed, and a hint of anger surged in his heart.
If it hadn't been for Fang Qingxue's sake, he would have turned around and left right then; whether Old Master Zhao lived or died was none of his concern.
"This time, I came only for Qingxue! If cured, I will not accept any reward from you!"
At this, Ye Feng extended a finger:
"Of course, just this once! If there's a next time, and you still need my help to treat someone, you must kneel and beg me!"
What?
Hearing Ye Feng's arrogant words, both Zhao Tian and Uncle Fu's expressions changed.
"Good! Good! Good! If you want me to kneel and beg you, then let's see if you have the skills!" Zhao Tian was ironically amused. It was the first time he had encountered such an arrogant person in his presence.
Having said that, Zhao Tian headed straight to Room 709 without looking back.
Fang Qingxue's expression was dark as water as she spoke to Ye Feng, "Brother Ye, maybe we shouldn't go! I can't let the treatment of Old Master Zhao endanger you!"
Fang Qingxue knew Zhao Tian's personality well; if Ye Feng made Old Master Zhao's condition worse, Zhao Tian would indeed kill Ye Feng.
"Don't worry! I know what I'm doing!" Ye Feng said with a slight smile, seemingly unconcerned.
Room 709 was the best among all the high-level VIP wards, with a space of over two hundred square meters, complete with bedrooms and a meeting room. It didn't feel like a hospital ward at all, more like a presidential suite in a hotel.
Ye Feng and another person were led by Uncle Fu through the meeting room to one of the bedrooms.
This bedroom was where Old Master Zhao was staying. A soft bed was placed by the window, and an elderly man in blue and white hospital attire lay on the bed.
"Old Master Zhao!"
Seeing the old man, joy appeared on Fang Qingxue's face, and she hurried over.
Old Master Zhao, nearly seventy, had graying hair and a benevolent face. Seeing Fang Qingxue, his face immediately brightened with a happy smile:
"Qingxue is here, come here, let grandpa have a look at you!"
It was apparent that Fang Qingxue and Old Master Zhao were exceptionally close; the two chatted and occasionally burst into happy laughter.
Ye Feng stood quietly at the bedroom door. Inside the room, besides Zhao Tian with a gloomy face standing to one side, there were three doctors standing nearby.
However, as Ye Feng stared intently at Old Master Zhao for a while, his brow slightly furrowed, and he blurted out:
"You won't live past three days!"
