In the largest ward of the Beijing Grand Hospital, the air is filled with the strong and unpleasant smell of disinfectant, which is the unique scent of hospitals. Inside the VIP room, Qin Yu is looking serious. He is all too familiar with this hospital, visiting it so frequently it's almost like a second home. However, unlike his usual visits as a patient, this time he is here to take care of someone.
The person he is tending to is an aunt who had been significantly kind to him. If it wasn't for her help in the past, Qin Yu might have long perished at the hands of his enemies. During that time, she took care of him wholeheartedly, almost like a second mother, and naturally, he came to address her as his mother.
Qin Yu's return this time isn't just about dominating the whole of China, but also ensuring that those who once helped him live well, acknowledging that their past support was not in vain. He wants to show those who have wronged him what cruelty means, though he has never managed to fulfill this desire completely. He is desperate to cure the woman who is like a mother to him, to make her proud and happy because of him.
Currently, Qin Yu is full of worry, a stark contrast to his usual confidence. He looks at the aunt lying in the hospital bed with concern in his eyes. He can handle diseases caused by poison, spiritual energy, or unique physical constitutions using the miraculous spiritual energy within him. But the aunt's condition is not of that nature; she is suffering from a difficult-to-cure human disease, liver cancer.
The primary reasons for her condition are overwork and the lack of proper treatment due to the family's financial constraints. The longer the treatment is delayed, the more the organs deteriorate. Now her organs are in a state of severe decay, and even the most renowned doctors would likely be powerless to help her, leaving only the arrangement of her final affairs.
The aunt's survival to this point is seen as a medical miracle by the hospital staff, who haven't given up hope and treat her with utmost effort, knowing that curing her could make the hospital nationally renowned. To Qin Yu, however, the situation seems dire. If it wasn't for his spiritual energy suppressing the disease, she might not live to see another day.
Though Qin Yu has the means to cure her with his formidable collection of medicinal recipes, the situation doesn't permit it. The ingredients required are exceedingly rare and were hard to find even in ancient times, let alone now.
Despite this, Qin Yu has sent people out to find even the lowest level of medicinal ingredients that could potentially revive her, if only to let her witness his glory before she passes. He is determined to fulfill this deep-seated desire, no matter what.
While Qin Yu is deep in thought, a group of doctors in white coats comes in to perform a thorough check-up on the aunt to monitor any instability. Qin Yu isn't too concerned, knowing the reality better than anyone, but he doesn't discourage their efforts. As he lifts his head, he notices among the doctors a beautiful and young figure that catches his eye, rejuvenating his spirit.
Qin Yu observed silently as the young and beautiful doctor worked meticulously and earnestly, her focus solely on her medical pursuit. He smiled, finding this attribute aligning perfectly with his strengths. Even though the beautiful doctor was wearing a mask, the allure radiating from her bright eyes was captivating, and Qin Yu felt a deep sense of joy within.
He was not just swayed by her eyes alone; experience had taught him caution. His true purpose for being at the hospital tonight was to hopefully encounter the stunning beauty he admired from afar, and fortune seemed to have favored him.
The woman, Fang Su, had a pleasant name and was born into one of the top medicinal families of China, known for their lineage of doctors and fame. The Fang family has been a renowned medical household for thousands of years, secretly residing in the mysterious Medicinal King Valley. Despite many powerful physicians residing there, they were not quite a match for Qin Yu's confidence.
The Fang family, and by extension Medicinal King Valley, had to be respected by all, no matter how powerful, as no one could guarantee they would never fall ill. The Fang family might not be the most powerful, but they were certainly not a force anyone wished to offend.
Yet, even with the Fang family's millennia of medical heritage, they had no solution for Qin Yu's aunt's condition. Qin Yu had the means to heal her, but lacked the necessary medicinal ingredients. Fang Su, observing the patient's stable indicators and peaceful demeanor, was filled with doubt. Her years of medical experience told her that this patient's condition should have been fatal, beyond the help of medicine, yet here she was, alive against all odds.
Fang Su had been the prodigy of Medicinal King Valley, surpassing all in medical expertise by the age of eighteen. She prided herself on tackling diseases that were considered incurable, and now she was the primary physician for Qin Yu's aunt's case. It was a challenge that many would shy away from, lacking the confidence to face such a disease.
But even with her exceptional medical skills, Fang Su was puzzled upon meeting the patient who seemed lifeless and beyond help. Despite this, the medical equipment indicated strong vital signs, akin to a comatose patient. Fang Su, a doctor who couldn't revive the dead, found no treatment plan that promised recovery.
Yet, she was not willing to concede.
Fang Su was determined to awaken this patient no matter what. But how? She suddenly became immersed in thought. Meanwhile, Qin Yu watched greedily from the sidelines, contemplating how to make this stunning beauty fall for him. Suddenly, a commotion erupted outside.
Cries of "Don't hit me, don't hit me" were met with angry roars of "You bastard, trying to kill me? I'll finish you today." The ruckus drew the attention of many; after all, it's unusual for such disturbances in a hospital.
Outside, a bald man stood menacingly over a doctor who was being brutally beaten by a group, already bloody and wounded, showing no mercy in their assault. The bald man, with a hand on his hip, shouted furiously, "Hit him hard, I'll take responsibility if he dies. Anyone who holds back will answer to me." His underlings, hearing this, doubled their efforts in the violent attack.
"Stop, what do you think you're doing? This is a hospital!" Normally, no one would dare to intervene in such a scene, but Fang Su, filled with indignation, stepped forward. The bald man, initially unhappy at the interference, recoiled in fear upon recognizing Fang Su. Well-known in the underworld for his broad experience, he recognized the name and understood that this was a fearsome figure not to be trifled with — the young mistress of the Medicinal King Valley's Fang family.
The influence of the Fang family was enough to intimidate many, but the bald man was still unsure until he saw her name tag clearly displaying 'Fang Su.' Frightened, he realized this was indeed the young mistress from Medicinal King Valley. Knowing the repercussions of offending Fang Su, he was scared and wanted to leave.
His men, used to acting with impunity, were initially defiant until the bald man slapped one of them across the face for speaking out of turn, reducing him to tears. Trying to smooth things over, the bald man addressed Fang Su with a forced smile, claiming his friend was mentally disturbed and needed psychiatric treatment.
Fang Su's expression remained unchanged as she asked for an explanation of the incident. The bald man's face twisted with rage as he recounted the story. Qin Yu listened intently from the sidelines. The bald man had given a hefty bribe of three hundred thousand to the beaten doctor, desperately seeking the best treatment for his critically ill mother.
However, after an examination, the doctor found the bald man's mother was actually in good health and decided to conceal this information to keep the bribe, merely administering glucose injections instead. Eventually, the truth came to light when the bald man's mother became critically ill, and after investigating, he discovered the deception and lashed out in fury.
Qin Yu was pleased with this turn of events. Given the circumstances, even someone of Fang Su's status wouldn't be able to stop a son seeking justice for his mother, especially since the hospital was clearly at fault. The only way to restore the hospital's reputation now was to ensure the patient's recovery.
Qin Yu was overjoyed as he thought of a way to close the distance with Fang Su.
