Chapter 932: Eccentric Senior (2)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Senior was so brilliant in medical circles. How could he possibly be short of money?
But this fellow was very eccentric. He used almost all his money for his research. He was crazy about research, but his personal life was a mess.
When her teacher said that he had blown up the laboratory recently, Gu Qingyao knew that he must be in desperate straits.
Qiao Xinming did not understand, but he promised to deliver the letter for Gu Qingyao.
Qiao Xinming left the country two days later. He finished all his urgent affairs, then personally delivered the letter for his younger cousin.
This person really lived in a place like the ghetto. Of all the places that Qiao Xinming had seen, this was the poorest.
The road was all b.u.mpy and full of potholes. It was lined with very cramped houses. Some of these were temporary constructions made of bits of wood and looked as if they would collapse at any moment. An indescribable stench filled his nostrils.
Qiao Xinming stumbled along until he finally found the place. Qiao Xinming could scarcely believe his eyes when he saw the low ceiling, the dim light and the incredibly chaotic surroundings.
He knocked, and a slovenly middle-aged man opened the door. Stubble covered his face, and he looked dispirited. In fact, he seemed rather frail.
The man squinted at his visitor, and his eyes lit up. A rich man!
“Older Brother, are you looking for me? Are you seeking treatment?”
Qiao Xinming: “…”
Wow!
No wonder this b.a.s.t.a.r.d was doing so poorly. You’re the one who needs treatment!
“Are you… Professor Cannon?”
“Yes, yes, yes! That’s me, that’s me. Why are you looking for me? Quick, tell me. My medical skills are excellent, and my consultation fees are very cheap.”
Qiao Xinming: “…”
He gritted his teeth. I’ll put up with this because he’s my cousin’s friend!
“I have a letter for you. I’m here to deliver a letter.”
Professor Cannon was astonished.
Qiao Xinming placed the letter before him. He felt that this person was a little crazy, but his younger cousin had not said exactly her relations.h.i.+p with him. Qiao Xinming did not feel like interacting with this person.
He handed the letter over and said, “Take this. I’ll be staying here for the next few days. If you have a reply, you can send it to me…”
“Brother, since you’re here to deliver a letter, then… you must certainly be one of my former patient’s friends. Or perhaps you are a friend of a patient who is looking for a doctor. Look, your friend is so grateful to me. If you want to ask me for treatment, then… for the sake of your friend, you should buy me a meal first!”
Qiao Xinming: “…”
What kind of logic was that?
“Brother! I’m amazing. Really, my medical skills are outstanding. I also know how to make many types of medicine, and I can cure many patients. I helped your friend, why not treat me to a meal? I haven’t eaten for two days. I’m terribly hungry! Or why not give me some money. That will do too!”
Qiao Xinming: “…”
After being in business for so many years, he had met many eccentric people, but not one as eccentric as him.
“Brother! Help! If I starve to death, I won’t be able to help your friend…”
“Stop!” Qiao Xinming really did not want to hear him carry on about treatment. It was just too inauspicious. Who wants to hear you keep talking about treatment?
“I don’t have time to treat you to a meal. I’m very busy with work. This letter is for you, and you can have this money. Professor, please take care of yourself. I’m leaving now.”
Qiao Xinming fled.
Cannon was extremely excited to see the money in his hand.
He finally had money!
He finally had money!
He could finally fill his stomach!
“Thank you, Brother! Thank you so much!”
Qiao Xinming’s lips twitched as he heard the shouts of grat.i.tude behind him!
