73 -73: Betting with National Doctor Qian
Qian Haoduo was taken aback, and then shouted, “Cure your injury in one week?
Impossible!
Remove the scars?
No way!
I’m the Divine Doctor, not a deity!”
Fang Bai curled his lip dismissively, “How can you be called the Divine Doctor if you can’t even cure this little injury?
Forget it, I won’t study medicine with you.”
Qian Haoduo, infuriated, bellowed, pointing at Fang Bai, “You little brat, are you making fun of me?
Let me tell you the truth, the injury on your back is very severe.
Even if it heals, it will leave scars that can’t be erased for a lifetime.
Hmph, if anyone can completely remove those scars from your body, I’d be willing to take him as my master!”
With that, he turned around, picked up the leather bag containing ten million in cash, and placed it beside Fang Bai’s hospital bed, then added, “There’s ten million in cash inside, and it will be his too!”
Fang Bai glanced sideways at the leather bag and smiled, “You mean what you say?”
Qian Haoduo said, “Nonsense, I’m Qian Haoduo, the National Doctor.
My word is as good as gold.
Why would I joke with you?
If I go back on my word, may I have a son without an asshole!”
Fang Bai laughed heartily, “That’s quite a curse!
But what I want to know is, are you married?”
Qian Haoduo’s face reddened as he stammered, “I’m suave and wealthy, with a fortune of billions.
Women who want to marry me could line up from Yanjing to Zhongzhou.
It’s just a matter of talking if I want to find a woman to marry.”
Fang Bai said, “If you don’t even have a wife, where would you get a son?
You don’t have a son, so you don’t care about whether he has an asshole or not!
You old guy, you’re clearly trying to deceive me!”
Qian Haoduo said, “Alright, I swear again: If I go back on my word, let me have sores on my head and pus under my feet, let lightning strike me, and let me have a terrible death!
Kid, no problem with this curse, right?”
Fang Bai said, “Anyway, as long as the scars on my back can be removed, the ten million cash is mine, right?”
“Exactly.”
Qian Haoduo nodded vigorously.
Fang Bai said, “Good, then wait and see.
It won’t be long before I open your eyes!
However…
I don’t trust you with the ten million cash.
What can I do if you don’t give it to me in the end?”
“Come on!
What do you take me, Qian Haoduo, for?”
Qian Haoduo said, outraged, “Although I love money as much as life itself, I am full of integrity and absolutely trustworthy!
If you don’t believe me, you can ask around!”
Fang Bai said, “Let’s find someone we both trust to hold the money, that would put my mind at ease.”
After thinking for a while, Qian Haoduo strode to the door of the ICU, opened it, and called out, “Tang Chongshan, come in!”
Since Fang Bai had woken up, he and Qian Haoduo had been arguing about the master-disciple matter in the ICU, and those outside, including Tang Chongshan, had heard everything.
They were all thrilled, but without Qian Haoduo’s permission, they didn’t dare to just barge in, anxiously pacing back and forth outside.
Hearing Qian Haoduo’s voice, everyone, including Tang Chongshan, rushed to the door of the ICU.
“National Doctor Qian, what’s the matter?”
Tang Chongshan’s gaze passed over Qian Haoduo’s shoulder and glanced at the bed in the ICU, asking, “Fang Bai is awake?”
“When I, Qian Haoduo, make a move, is there ever any doubt of revival?
Come in with me!”
Qian Haoduo reached out his hand and pulled Tang Chongshan into the hospital room, stuffing a leather bag with ten million in cash into his embrace and said gravely, “This ten million in cash will be kept with you for now.
I made a bet with that young man, if I lose, you’ll give him this money; otherwise, I’ll take it back!
Make sure it’s kept safe for me; if even a penny is missing, I’ll be asking Officer Tang’s father for it!”
Tang Chongshan, completely baffled, forced a smile and said, “National Doctor Qian, what exactly is going on here?”
Qian Haoduo relayed again the story of his bet with Fang Bai.
After hearing it, Tang Chongshan chuckled and nodded in agreement, “No problem.
I will take care of the money, and when both parties agree to whom it should be given, I’ll hand it over to them!”
He handed the money to an assistant outside and then returned to the hospital room, where he stood by the bed and was taken aback when he got a clear look at Fang Bai’s face.
The Fang Bai lying on the bed bore a seventy to eighty percent resemblance to his daughter’s ex-boyfriend, Lu Jianfei.
The two of them together could have been mistaken for twin brothers.
Tang Chongshan was momentarily lost in thought until his wife Liu Hongzhuang’s startled exclamation of “Ah” brought him back to reality.
“The first time I saw him, I almost mistook him for Jianfei.”
Tang Chongshan glanced at his wife and sighed softly.
“They look so alike…”
Liu Hongzhuang widened her beautiful eyes, scrutinizing Fang Bai closely for a while before turning to see her daughter Tang Wenrou standing by the bed, gazing at Fang Bai with concern, which made her also let out a sigh.
At that moment, the entire Fang family and the Su siblings had also come in.
They gathered around the bed, and although they didn’t speak, their excitement was clearly evident.
“Fang Bai, hello, I’m Tang Chongshan, Tang Wenrou’s father.”
Tang Chongshan took a deep breath, nodded towards Fang Bai, and said earnestly, “Thank you for saving Tang Wenrou’s life, and thank you for ridding society of three dangerous criminals.
You are a heroic young man and an example for all young people to follow!”
Fang Bai gave his parents and sister a slight smile to show that he was alright, then turned to Tang Chongshan and said, “Mr.
Tang, you are too kind.
Officer Tang is my friend, and it was only right for me to help her when she was in danger.”
His gaze then shifted to Tang Wenrou at the bedside, “Officer Tang, seeing you unharmed makes me very happy.”
Tang Wenrou felt a tickle in her nose and her eyes began to water, she turned her head to the side, biting her lip hard to stop the tears from falling.
Fang Bai smiled, then turned to the Su siblings and said, “Yifei, Linglong, how did you both end up here?”
Su Yifei said, “We heard from Vice Dean Fu that you were injured and hospitalized, so my grandfather, Linglong, and I came to visit you.
Grandfather wasn’t feeling too well and left after a short while, but Linglong and I stayed.
Thank heavens you’re awake; now we can be at ease.”
Fang Bai looked towards Su Linglong, whose eyes were red and tear-stained, clearly having cried recently, and sighed, “Linglong, why didn’t you go to your classes at the medical college?
Skipping school isn’t what a good student does.”
Su Linglong sniffled and retorted, “How could I focus on classes when you’re injured like this?
I’ve already asked Teacher Qin for leave.
I’ll stay with you in the hospital until your wounds heal and you’re discharged.”
As she spoke, worried that others might misunderstand, she blushed and added, “I mean…
I don’t have any other intentions.
Grandpa said that one should repay even the smallest favor with a fountain of gratitude.
You saved my life, so it’s only right that I take care of you.”
Her tone and shy demeanor were enough to show that she liked Fang Bai and to others, her explanation seemed like a cover-up, which, ironically, made it all the more obvious.
