The Crazy Son-In-Law

The reason why Zhou Shuqing was in such a hurry to bring Xiao Shun over was also because he was worried about the reputation of their hospital.

The Xue family did have a status in this city. If anything happened to his son at their hospital, this incident would definitely become the focus of media attention and damage their hospital’s reputation.

But his son’s illness was too bizarre. He had already talked to a dozen cardiopulmonary doctors, but they weren’t making any progress at all, so he had to contact Xiao Shun.

“Dr. Zhou, I can’t help that patient, so maybe you should just let him wait for his death.” Xiao Shun said in a cold voice, and turned to walk out the door.

So it was like father like son.

Xiao Shun naturally would not put up with such people. He was here to make money, not to see fools.

“What the fuck are you talking about! You little bastard! How dare you curse my son?”

The middle-aged man was actually Xue Cheng’s father, Xue Sihai, who roared in anger with a flushed face.

“So what? It’s not like I’m just saying those things now. I said those things half a month ago. You can ask your son.”

Xiao Shun turned around and frowned.

“Besides, let me tell you. You better pray those doctors you just mentioned get here soon, your son won’t survive tonight.”

Then he paused for a moment, as if something suddenly occurred to him, “Oh no, actually, your son won’t survive tonight anyway.”

With that he strode towards the elevator.

Xue Sihai was so angry that he felt a pain in his chest. He walked quickly to the door, covered his chest, and pointed a trembling finger at Xiao Shun’s back, “How dare you! After my son gets better, I will never let you go.”

Without looking back, Xiao Shun raised his hand and waved it casually, “I’ll be waiting for you.”

“How are you, dear?”

That middle-aged woman, Xue Cheng’s mother, Zhao Yuqiu, hurriedly went forward to support him, her face full of worry.

Xue Sihai breathed a little sharply and waved his hand to show that he was fine.

“Dr. Zhou, who exactly is the person you brought in? If anything happens to my husband, it’s your hospital’s responsibility.” Zhao Yuqiu glared at Zhou Shuqing and helped Xue Sihai slowly to the edge of the bed.

Zhou Shuqing had a confused look on his face at this point.

He knew that Xiao Shun was a good doctor, but he didn’t expect his short temper. He had just entered this ward and he was already arguing with the patient’s family?

Although he still admired Xiao Shun, at this point he also felt that he was indeed a bit too arrogant.

Zhou Shuqing hurriedly apologized, “Mr. Xue, Mrs. Xue, I’m really sorry, I didn’t expect this to happen either.”

With decades of efforts and some luck, Xue Sihai had created his business empire from nothing and it was now second only to the four families. The Xue family had many connections in the government, and all of his businesses were in currently popular industries. One day, they might be able to surpass those four families.

Xue Cheng was his only son and sole heir, so he was very anxious when he got this strange disease.

Xue Cheng coughed violently a few times again and spat out a mouthful of thick spit mixed with blood.

“How are you doing, son? Hang in there, the doctors will be here soon and they will surely cure you.”

Zhao Yuqiu covered Xue Cheng’s bloodless hand worryingly.

Xue Sihai suddenly remembered what Xiao Shun had just said and asked with a frown, “Son, do you know that kid just now? What did he mean just now?”

Xue Cheng’s sunken eyelids blinked a few times, as if he had cotton stuffed down his throat.

Then he broke off and told him what had happened at that banquet.

The couple looked at each other after hearing this.

“Perhaps it was that kid who poisoned our son?!” Zhao Yuqiu wondered.

“Madam Xue, I’ve never heard of any poison that can cause such acute and severe heart and lung depletion.” Zhou Shuqing frowned and warned.

He had only met Xiao Shun a few times, but he had seen how Xiao Shun had saved that little girl in the emergency room. At that time, when he had begged him to help save his teacher, he had also agreed immediately and never mentioned anything about money.

He would never believe that Xiao Shun would use some dirty tricks.

Moreover, no matter who it was, he had never turned down anyone who asked him for help in good faith. It seemed that he had just misunderstood Master Xiao.

“Even if it’s poison, I’m afraid we can’t find any more clues. We’ll go back that after our son’s better.”

Xue Sihai said with a cold face.

“Mr. Xue, I have an idea.” Zhou Shuqing said.

“Tell me about it.”

“Since Master Xiao was able to see your son’s illness half a month ago, perhaps he can help your son, and just now he said that he would not treat Mr. Xue, not that he could… not,” Zhou Shuqing said cautiously.

“Do you think he looks like he can save anyone? As the vice president of this hospital, you can’t even see this? Ridiculous to the extreme.” Zhao Yuqiu mocked.

Zhou Shuqing immediately felt his face burning hot and blushed and said.

“I’ve seen with my own eyes Master Xiao save a little girl whose life was in danger, and he also helped my teacher, Wang Baisong, get rid of his illness. Since you can’t trust him, let’s pretend I never said anything.”

Zhou Shuqing was humiliated by the couple over and over again. Even though he was patient enough, he had mixed feelings, so he turned around and left the ward.

…

After Xiao Shun left the hospital, he made a trip to Goodhealth Herbs to purchase some herbs that were good for the heart and lungs.

Although Wang Ye had told the shore that he could take all the herbs for free, he nevertheless insisted on paying for them.

Yao Cen usually gave him not much money, but it was still enough to buy these herbs.

Then, he bought two ceramic jars. Finally, he went to Pearl International, where Meng Lezhi had the villa ready.

The reason why they hadn’t moved in yet was because of Yao Cen, and only she knew why.

Xiao Shun took out that thousand year old wild ginseng which Wang Ye had given him earlier and took tiny root from it and said to himself, “You are really lucky today.”

While no ginseng might save anyone from death but it had made its name for a reason.

With his recipe, it could easily help Xue Cheng through the day.
