âSo, do you wish for your grandfather to die or to live?â Jiang Yao asked with a smile on her face. âIf I am not mistaken, he probably has half a year to a year left in him.â
âYou...â Du Chen was shocked. âThatâs why youâre the Divine Doctor.â
Jiang Yao realized she might have spoken too much.
âLiver cirrhosis is not diagnosable by eye. Itâs just something Iâve heard of,â she explained.
âYou have a point there.â Du Chen smiled. As the Divine Doctor, Mrs. Lu would definitely have connections in the hospital. Knowing the conditions of Old Man Du was a reasonable thing to expect.
As for her question, Du Chen was forthright with his answer. âI donât want him to die too early as my arrangements are still far from complete.â
âIf I give you two choices now, either to cure your disability or to extend your grandfatherâs life by two years, which one will you choose?â
Jiang Yao smiled devilishly.
Even though she thought that the question was quite perverted, yet it did feel amazing to be able to do whatever she wanted.
As she looked at Lu Xingzhi, she noticed that he was staring at her, his expression reminded her of a rumbling volcano just moments before eruption.
Puzzled, Jiang Yao was just in a short conversation with Du Chen and did not know what Old Man Du said to anger Lu Xingzhi.
âMrs. Lu, I choose the latter,â Du Chen replied suddenly.
He then saw Lu Xingzhi approaching swiftly .
âAre you done?â Jiang Yao smiled at Lu Xingzhi. âLetâs go home then!â
Lu Xingzhi looked at Jiang Yao and then turned his attention toward Du Chen. Du Chen instinctively wheeled himself backward under Lu Xingzhiâs scorching gaze.
âLu Xingzhi! Donât burn your bridges! Donât think you wouldnât be in my shoes begging for favor in the future!â Old Man Du growled as the chauffeur pushed him over.
âEven if I do, I would never beg for favors from the Dus and the Zhous.â Lu Xingzhi ignored Old Man Duâs threats. âDonât come to me anymore! I am never changing my stance on Du Rongzhen.â
He moved out of the way and entered the passenger seat. âLetâs go?â
Jiang Yao heard his tone and felt a shiver down her spine and immediately started the car.
She then looked at Old Man Du and Du Chen, who were just steps away.
Jiang Yao, after a brief thought, told Old Man Du, âYou have a wonderful grandson here. I gave Du Chen two choices just now: to cure his leg or to extend your life. He told me his answer. In the next few days, Iâll obtain some medication from the Divine Doctor for you.â
She stepped on the throttle and sped off into the platoon.
Du Chen was absolutely shocked, until Old Man Du asked, âIs Mrs. Lu for real?â
