Invincible Divine Doctor of the Beautiful Lady-Chapter 91 - 89: I Wouldn’t Treat You for Ten Million

After a while, under the guidance of Old Wu, Chu Xiang and his son Chu Fei nervously walked in. Normally somewhat arrogant, Chu Fei was much more subdued now. After all, they were entering the Lin Family of the Lin Group. With the Lin Family’s standing, even a hint of arrogance in Chu Fei’s heart dare not show itself. He was extravagant, but not to the point of foolishness; he knew very well which battles to pick. However, upon seeing Tangyu, a trace of resentment flashed deep in his eyes.

He felt he couldn’t risk offending the Lin Family, but he didn’t think he couldn’t offend Tangyu.

The reason they found themselves in such an awkward situation today was because of Tangyu, so he hated Tangyu, and he was looking for a chance to take his revenge on Tangyu.

"Mr. Lin, Young Master Tang, this must be Miss Lin. Today, we are here uninvited, and we apologize for any disrespect. My surname is Chu, you can just call me Old Chu. This is my son; I specifically brought him here today to make amends. Regarding the misunderstanding between my son and Young Master Tang, I would like to apologize in person," Chu Xiang said sincerely, feeling immense pressure in front of such a prominent figure as Lin Guotai.

Lin Guotai’s expression darkened slightly, his gaze flashing intimidatingly as he looked at Chu Xiang and his son, yet he remained silent.

The atmosphere also became somewhat oppressive.

Standing there, Chu Xiang and his son appeared quite uncomfortable and embarrassed. When had they ever been treated with such disdain? But faced with a figure like Lin Guotai, who could make the whole of Donglin tremble with a stomp, they felt a crushing weight on their backs, barely able to breathe. The feeling was like an ant in the presence of a giant elephant, a deep-seated reverence coming from within.

"Young Master Tang, we trust you see our sincerity. If there is anything that still bothers you, please feel free to bring it up, and do accept our apologies," Chu Xiang said, seeing Lin Guotai ignoring him, he turned his gaze to Tangyu, his eyes showing a hint of desperation. After speaking, Chu Xiang kicked Chu Fei, scolding him, "Aren’t you going to apologize to Young Master Tang right now?"

Chu Fei clenched his teeth secretly, feeling very displeased with Tangyu, but under the circumstances, he had no choice but to stiffly say, "I was wrong about yesterday, and I apologize. We are willing to bear twice the losses incurred."

Tangyu smiled faintly and said, "I didn’t suffer any losses, the losses were Mr. Lin’s, you shouldn’t be apologizing to me."

Lin Feifei snorted coldly and said, "You’ve got some nerve, even daring to smash my family’s car. I’ve never had my car smashed before, and here you have set a new precedent."

Chu Xiang immediately looked at Lin Feifei and said, "Miss Lin, this really is a misunderstanding, and we deeply regret it, so we have specifically come to make amends. We will definitely compensate double for all damages to the car."

"Alright, then I’ll see how sincere you all are," Lin Feifei said.

Chu Xiang was inwardly delighted and carefully handed over the prepared check to Lin Feifei, who casually took it and glanced at the amount on the check, only to scoff coldly, "Two million, that’s quite generous indeed, a big gesture. So our family’s dignity is worth two million, is it?"

Bang—

Chu Xiang’s hand trembled with fright as he hastily handed another check he had prepared, saying hastily, "Look at me, I brought one less."

Lin Feifei took it and saw this check was for three million. It seemed this old fox was indeed cunning, having such backups prepared. The BMW 7 series that had been smashed was worth just over a million; compensation of five million was actually quite fair.

"Well, seeing as you do have some sincerity, I’ll accept this small amount of money for now, and let’s assume this was all a misunderstanding. As for the car, whether to repair it or to buy a new one, I’ll give you two days to deliver it here. That license plate was my choice, and if it’s gone, you and I will have issues," Lin Feifei said.

Chu Xiang’s mouth twitched violently. He had hoped two million might settle the matter, but suddenly it had gone up to five million, and this wasn’t even counting the car repair costs that could go up to another million or so. Just like that, it had reached six million. Yet, if six million could totally resolve the issue, he would just have to grit his teeth and pay it. Chu Xiang dared not say more, merely nodding and saying, "Yes, yes, Miss Lin, the car will be delivered in perfect condition within two days. Thank you so much for your great mercy. If there’s nothing else, may we leave now?"

Lin Feifei waved her hand impatiently, "Go on, go on, you’ve dirtied my floor enough."

Chu Xiang’s mouth twitched again, but he did not dare to show anger. He bowed to Lin Feifei and Lin Guotai, then turned to Tangyu and said, "Young Master Tang, may I have a word with you, please?"

Tangyu looked at Chu Xiang, finally nodding and saying, "Alright."

Chu Xiang gestured for Tangyu to follow, and the three of them went outside, where Chu Xiang then said, "Young Master Tang, you truly are the reincarnation of a Divine Doctor. I went for a check-up at the hospital, and indeed, I have liver cancer, fortunately in its early stage. Had it not been for your warning, it might have been discovered too late when it was already advanced. Since Young Master Tang could diagnose my illness at a glance, you must have a cure for it, right?"

Tangyu had expected this reason for being called out, and with a curled lip said, "I can cure your disease, but I won’t cure your disease. Alright, you can leave now, and don’t bother me again. And it’s best if you don’t engage in any more shenanigans, or I won’t be so polite next time."

"Of course not, how could I dare?" Chu Xiang immediately shook his head, desperately promising, "Young Master Tang, Divine Doctor Tang, please treat my disease. Money is no object, just name your price. One million, I am willing to pay one million."

Tangyu gave a nonchalant smile and glanced at Chu Xiang, "It’s not about the money, it’s about principle. I don’t just treat anyone lightly. For your illness, even if you gave me ten million, I wouldn’t treat it. Besides, it’s still early stages for you. If you go to the hospital for treatment, there’s still a fifty percent chance of full recovery. There’s no need to come to me. That’s it then, don’t bother me again." After saying that, he turned and went back to the villa without looking back.

Watching Tangyu’s retreating figure, Chu Xiang’s face also turned sinisterly unpleasant. A fifty percent chance was hardly significant. What if the treatment failed?

Chu Fei was fiercely clenching his teeth, expressing his displeasure; he had not dared to show it earlier, but now he naturally wanted to vent. Chu Xiang glared harshly at Chu Fei and yelled, "You’re going to get me killed this time, you disgrace! Get lost and go back."

Since Chu Xiang had proactively signed the contract with Sister Xin, Tangyu didn’t bother arguing with Chu Xiang anymore. This matter was thus resolved satisfactorily.

"Tangyu, how come you didn’t mention this earlier? When have we, from the Lin family, ever allowed others to bully us--" Tangyu had just entered the house when Lin Feifei began speaking indignantly. However, she realized she might have misspoken towards the end and suddenly paused, somewhat embarrassed.

Tangyu smiled, wondering since when he had become part of the Lin family?

"Here Tangyu, here’s two million for you," Lin Feifei suddenly handed a check to Tangyu.

Tangyu was slightly startled, "Why would you give me money?" Alimony perhaps? That couldn’t be right. If it were about support, it should be he who supports her. Could it actually be some backward arrangement where she needed to pay him?

"Just take it, that’s all there is to it. Why ask why?" Lin Feifei said.

"How can that be okay? I don’t want unearned bounty. As the saying goes, ’No pay, no gain.’ You suddenly giving me all this money feels odd. This money, I can’t take it." Tangyu shook his head, he was indifferent to money. Even if he cared, he wouldn’t casually accept a woman’s money; would that not degrade his character?

Lin Feifei was also stunned, "How is it odd? You’re the weird one, to be given two million and not want it. Others wish for my charity."

"These five million are admittedly due to you, so just take the two million, are you too high and mighty to look at two million?" Lin Feifei said.

Tangyu still shook his head, "How can you say these five million came because of me? This five million is merely what Chu Xiang compensated the Lin family for their dignity. It has nothing to do with me. How could I look down on two million? I’m not a rich man; in fact, I’m quite poor, not even having tens of thousands to my name. Two million is certainly a large sum to me. However, I’ve said, ’No pay, no gain.’ If it’s not mine, I won’t take it. I adhere to my principles. Being poor is okay as long as one is not poor in spirit. As for money, having it is good, but not lusting after it is even better. I’ve never been too concerned about money."

Lin Feifei stomped her foot in frustration and glared at Tangyu, "Why are you so unromantic? Just take it. Why do you have so many principles? Think of it as my treatment fee."

"Uncle Lin has already paid my master, so I will not accept another cent. Besides, even if you really want to pay, two million wouldn’t be enough." Tangyu said.

"What--you mean that’s still too little? Two million isn’t enough; do you want twenty million?" Lin Feifei said somewhat angrily. Having been pampered from childhood, she naturally carried an air of haughty nobility. She rarely took the initiative to give things to others, and yet Tangyu was unappreciative, naturally angering her.

"Twenty million would still not be enough. My master charges based on the difficulty of the case; the harder it is, the higher the fee. However, he didn’t charge for treating you; he just symbolically accepted a small amount of money, though I don’t know how much." Tangyu said.

Lin Feifei was naturally skeptical. Could treating an illness cost up to a billion?

"Always boasting. Forget it then, I won’t give it to you. Just don’t regret it." Lin Feifei glared fiercely at Tangyu.

Lin Guotai said, "Feifei, stop it. Tangyu is not wrong; the Ghost Doctor is indeed a bit eccentric. If he’s in a good mood, he might save a life without a charge; if not, no amount of money will persuade him. But generally, his fees, reaching up to a few hundred million, are normal."

"Ah--are there really such incredible people?" Lin Feifei was exceptionally surprised. This was beyond her common sense, and she couldn’t help but look curiously at Tangyu.

"All right, let’s not discuss this anymore. Weren’t you planning to go out with Tangyu? It’s getting late; why aren’t you leaving?" Lin Guotai said.

Lin Feifei suddenly jumped up, smacked her head and said, "Right, almost forgot, ah it’s already past five. Tangyu, hurry up and drive, take me somewhere."

"Where to?" Tangyu was startled and asked.

"Don’t ask right now, just go start the car. I’ll go upstairs to change my clothes," Lin Feifei urged.
