The Invincible Doctor of the Female Village Chief-Chapter 614: The Third Path

Xiangyang heard this and smiled, "Mr. Liu, if you can help me get through the current predicament, no matter what the request is, I will agree."

"To be honest, several things recently have made me feel frazzled, and it’s not just the one that Master Gu just talked about."

"Is it about your child?" Gu Yu suddenly spoke.

Xiangyang was startled, slightly surprised, "So, you also figured this out!"

Gu Yu said, "It’s not difficult. In face reading mysticism, there’s a saying about looking at descendants through the bridge of the nose, known as the ’Shangen.’ It’s the area above the nose and between the eyes. If the Shangen is full or flat, the descendants are typically healthy or fortunate. If it collapses, the descendants face many difficulties."

Saying this, Gu Yu pointed between Xiangyang’s eyes, above the nose, "Your Shangen has developed a vertical line, indicating your child is on the brink of death."

Upon hearing Gu Yu speak so seriously and professionally, Xiangyang truly believed in his identity as a master.

In his excitement, he grabbed Gu Yu’s hand, "You are a master, since you can see these things, surely you have the skill to resolve my child’s disaster. I beg you, save my son."

Gu Yu looked at Liu Zixuan with difficulty, "This... I really can’t help with!"

Liu Zixuan asked, "Is it an illness?"

"A central brain disease. It is indeed a congenital illness, but when he was born, it wasn’t detected. Everything was normal until last year when he suddenly started having intermittent fainting spells. Initially, we didn’t think much of it, but after a day and night of unconsciousness, we rushed him to the hospital."

Xiangyang sighed, "Diagnosed with central brain disease, his brainstem is now compressed, leading to a decline in intelligence and memory loss. Sometimes he even forgets me and his mother. I’ve been searching for doctors for over a year, both locally and internationally, but haven’t found a cure. Just a few days ago, the doctors told me there’s at most ten days left."

Liu Zixuan squinted slightly, understanding that this disease is indeed rare, but it is documented in the Holy Medical Scripture. With his medical skills, he can completely treat it.

He clapped Xiangyang’s shoulder and said, "If you trust me, I can take a look for you."

"You?" Xiangyang was taken aback, "Aren’t you Master Gu’s bodyguard?"

"I know a bit about National Medicine, perhaps I can help." Liu Zixuan smiled. Their relationship hadn’t progressed to the point where he could reveal his medical skills, otherwise, the Willow Association would certainly notice.

"Thank you, Mr. Liu. To be honest, I’ve searched far and wide among national and mysterious medicine over the past year, and spent half of my wealth on finding doctors alone."

Xiangyang’s words were essentially telling Liu Zixuan that he’s tried all kinds of doctors, including National Doctors, and if you only know a bit, then it’s certainly not enough.

Liu Zixuan paused, deciding not to continue the topic, and instead asked, "So it was because of treating your son that your company ran into financial problems, which led to a business conflict with your brother?"

"You’re right. I certainly wouldn’t compromise for any other friend, but my brother went to prison because of me. He’s just out now, trying to start fresh with this business. I’ve been torn."

Xiangyang sighed deeply, "Honestly, before today, I had already decided to let my brother have that business deal. Although I was reluctant, I also knew there was basically no hope for my son, so I thought I might as well do him a favor."

"But this morning, another friend called me and put me in touch with a miracle-working doctor. He said he can come to take a look, but his fee is very high, so I started to waver again. If I secure that business, it’ll be enough to pay the doctor’s fees." 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

With that, Liu Zixuan finally understood the situation.

For Xiangyang, the biggest dilemma was his son. As long as his son’s illness was cured, the business deal would be straightforward, whether he took it for himself or gave it to his brother.

With a smile, he said, "So you’re faced with two paths."

"First, give the business to your brother, but then you won’t have the money to save your son."

"Second, take the business from your brother, and this way you might save your son, but your brother will be hard to deal with in the future."

Xiangyang nodded, "That’s right. Although my brother previously betrayed me, last time he served several years in prison for helping me. I still owe him."

"There’s really no need to hesitate," Liu Zixuan chuckled, "If he truly regards you as a brother, he should step back and let you save your son first. Only if he doesn’t consider you a brother would he stand up at this time to compete with you for business!"

"I understand what you’re saying," Xiangyang smiled wryly, "But since his release, we haven’t been in touch, perhaps out of pride, or for other reasons. But I always felt I owed him a lot. This is a great opportunity for compensation."

Liu Zixuan rubbed his forehead, "Essentially, you want your dignity and your son. Am I right?"

Xiangyang nodded, "Exactly, that’s why I’ve been so conflicted."

Upon hearing this, Liu Zixuan thought for a moment, "Since you don’t trust my medical skills, let me offer you a suggestion or help you find a third way."

"What way?" Xiangyang asked.

"For now, set aside the business issue. Essentially, all your dilemmas center around your son. Let’s solve the problem with your son first."

Liu Zixuan paused and said, "Go ahead and let that miracle-working doctor come. Spend any amount you can, and if it’s not enough, I can lend you the rest as a favor, and once your son is treated, we can tackle your business issue."

"Lend me the money?" Xiangyang frowned slightly, "Judging by your attire and the car you drove, I assume you’re quite accomplished. But Mr. Liu, it might not be that simple. The doctor’s fee isn’t something one can casually afford."

"How much?" Liu Zixuan asked playfully. For him, money was merely a number. Before Jiang Yiyi left, she gave him a Xiumei Group bank card filled with the profits accumulated over time.

Moreover, Liu Zixuan didn’t think the visiting miracle-working doctor would have better medical skills than his own. When the time comes, he might treat Xiangyang’s son himself, and not a single cent would need to be spent...
