Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Li Yifeng’s words made perfect sense!
Tang Tianhao could visualize clearly how Qingshui City would be the top place for medical exchange many years into the future as long as Ling Yun was willing!
Tang Tianhao finally understood what vision and foresight meant!
Li Yifeng knew autumn was coming just by observing the falling leaves!
He took a long puff from his cigarette and blew it out slowly. He smiled at the blank Tang Tianhao and continued.
“My first encounter with Ling Yun’s medical skills was when he cured my son, Qingchuan. You know about his illness. It was incurable, even by Miracle Doctor Xue. Ling Yun, however, managed to cure him! He hasn’t shown any signs of relapse over the past two months!
“As for the second encounter. Well, there’s no need for me to elaborate. You know it better than me. Tang Meng’s head and limbs were completely broken by Xie Junyan! He almost became an invalid!
“Ling Yun cured him in an instant. Tang Meng is still very much alive and kicking!
“Li Qingchuan’s congenital heart disease and Tang Meng’s injuries were healed in an instant by Ling Yun. Not even a teeny weeny scar was left!
“Brother, tell me, what is this medical skill? Think about it. Ling Yun is still unknown now. Once this gets out, it will cause a huge ripple in Huaxia. No, the entire world!
“It will cause a super huge earthquake. The greatest and most brilliant revolution in modern medicine! A new chapter for medicine will come!”
Li Yifeng sprang up in his excitement. His Adam’s apple was shaking, and he paced back and forth, swinging his arms. “Such G.o.d-like medical skills, such talent. How can I let him slip away just like that?”
“I’ll give him a hundred acres, no, even a thousand acres of land, as long as I can keep him here!”
Tang Tianhao was totally stunned!
“Erm… Elder Li, I thought that you might not have the time to think about these matters since you are always busy with the matters of Qingshui City. Little did I realize you actually gave it so much thought!”
Li Yifeng took a few deep breaths and quickly returned to his seat. His pale face filled with an excited blush. “The time wasn’t ripe for me to tell you all this. Now that Ling Yun’s clinic is open, everything will happen. This is why I chose to tell you now…”
“B-but Ling Yun’s medical skills are really too flashy in the eyes of normal people. It could be viewed as a superst.i.tion…” Tang Tianhao scratched his head.
“Flashy? Superst.i.tion? I can understand if it came from someone else’s mouth, but it’s a big no-no from your mouth!” Li Yifeng sneered.
“People have fears and fantasies about the unknown instinctively. These things are often regarded as superst.i.tion. However, things that you don’t understand or haven’t seen definitely doesn’t equate to superst.i.tion!
“Four hundred years ago, didn’t people claim heresy when Copernicus brought up the possibility that the Earth revolves around the Sun? Didn’t they tie him to a cross and burn him alive? What about now?
“Humans have gone to the moon. It would have been heresy at that point in time!
“I’ve always believed that the things humans aren’t able to do or aren’t able to understand are because humans do not yet possess the power. It’s definitely not something as fickle as superst.i.tion!”
Li Yifeng was really speaking about his convictions tonight. He couldn’t stop.
“We have seen some incredible things, even at our level. Especially you, since you were the best of the special forces and worked in criminal investigation for so long. How many bizarre cases have you seen? How do you explain them to the public?
“Or did you just let the truth sink?
“Zhuang Meifeng was taken to the Tranquil Sect, there has been no news from Cao Shanshan since she returned to the Cao Family, and I have also heard about a beautiful woman called Xiao Meimei who went missing at the same time. Ling Yun might not have said anything, but I’m sure he’s planning something!
“Ling Yun is only waiting for the college entrance exams to end. I’m sure he’ll leave once it’s over!
“I’m afraid we won’t be able to keep someone as great as Ling Yun if we don’t make a move now!”
Li Yifeng kept quiet suddenly. His eyes narrowed as he snuffed out his cigarette b.u.t.t.
Tang Tianhao understood what he meant. He nodded his head earnestly and bellowed, “I understand now! Let’s do this!”
Tang Tianhao chose to support Li Yifeng unconditionally on this matter!
Other than all the previously spoken reasons, the Li Family and the Tang Family owed Ling Yun a huge favor. Not only did he cure both their precious sons, but he had also eliminated their arch enemy, Luo Zhong. He had skillfully maneuvered matters such that Li Yifeng regained his powers, and Tang Tianhao obtained a higher position! How could they ever repay what he had done?
Li Yifeng was shocked by Tang Tianhao’s sudden outburst. “Why are you shouting so loudly?”
“Hold an emergency meeting at eight-thirty in the morning to discuss the use of this hundred acres of land. I have obtained eight out of eleven votes from the members of the Standing Committee in Qingshui City. The meeting tomorrow is just a formality.
“We’ll cut the ribbon at Ling Yun’s clinic at nine-thirty sharp!”
“Alright!”
Tang Tianhao and Li Yifeng shook each other’s hands with a loud clap!
…
Qingxi District, in a certain private luxury room of a five-star hotel.
“I won’t tell you any more about Big Brother Yun’s medical marvel. Just a word of caution. don’t blame me for doing what I’ll do if any of you fumble the ball tomorrow!”
There were numerous wine bottles on the table. Tang Meng concentrated on his story to the eight people present, not touching a single one.
Tang Meng didn’t get the number wrong. There were five brothers and three beautiful young women.
What a good father-son combination. Tang Meng gave a great start to the opening tomorrow, while Tang Tianhao discussed gifts with the Provincial Party Secretary.
“Dandan, I don’t care about the game you are playing now, nor the movies you have downloaded on your computer. From now on, you’d better keep your phone switched on with the loudest ringtone you can find and the strongest vibration you can have!” Tang Meng directed an eighteen-year-old bespectacled boy.
Dandan wore a pair of gla.s.ses and had a very casual T-s.h.i.+rt on. His legs were hidden with a baggy pair of trousers, and he wore sloppy flip-flops. His hair was as messy as a bird’s nest. One look and one would know that he was a typical otaku.
He was a master online gamer and also a computer expert. He usually holed up at home. He was called over by Tang Meng today.
“Oh, okay…” Dandan replied without taking a break from the game on his Samsung wide-screen mobile.
“Haozi, Brother Fei, the same goes for both of you. Don’t just keep eating and drinking. The banquet at Shangri-La will be handled by you two. Don’t give me any trouble!”
Haozi was a nickname, of course. Notorious for his love of food, he had not stopped eating even now. His dream was to eat everything in Qingshui, Jiangnan, and finally everything in Huaxia…
What was interesting was that he remained really skinny even though he could eat a lot. What a pity for the money his family had spent on him.
Brother Fei was a tall man. He had a similar physique to Tang Meng. He was a self-styled wine G.o.d. The contents in half the bottles on the table went in his huge stomach. However, he hadn’t shown any hint of drunkenness.
They were the best of friends and complemented each other. They were also sons of high-ranking officials, similar to Tang Meng.
“Chick, do well as the correspondent tomorrow. However, you must not go to the Ordinary People’s Clinic. You will definitely cause trouble there,” Tang Meng addressed an older pale man.
Chick’s name was Ji Xiaochun. Everyone used to call him Brother Chun 1 until someone else obtained the t.i.tle. From then on, everyone called him Xiaoji 2 . After a while, everyone called him Chick instead. He resisted many times to no avail. He had to agree that this name was tailor-made for him.
Chick was lascivious. His family was rich and powerful. He was one of the nouveau riche of Qingshui City. He had quit school at an early age and went around s.c.r.e.w.i.n.g third rate female actresses. Two of the women at the table were brought there by him.
“Abing, you’ll follow me tomorrow. If I’m too busy, you will take over receiving our guests…” Tang Meng turned his gaze to the person opposite him. His eyes were cold, and he had a cigarette in his mouth.
Abing and Tang Meng were about the same. They were descendants of military families. Abing’s father was the head of the provincial military region, at the deputy level. This guy was very eloquent, but he was too lazy to speak up. He liked to engage in businesses and was recently obsessed with real estate.
These five people, together with Tang Meng and Li Qingchuan, crowned themselves as the Seven Tigers of Qingshui. Their lives were rich and full of all kinds of vices.
