Chapter 42 Life hangs by a thread
A luxurious motorcade pulled up in front of the Zhao family manor.
Zhao Tianlong got out of the car himself and opened the door for Ye Chen.
The security guard at the entrance stared wide-eyed at the sight.
Ye Chen calmly stepped out of the car, with Zhao Tianlong leading the way.
They arrived quickly and found themselves outside the special care ward where Madam Wen was staying. A group of doctors were busy inside.
Old Madam Wen lay on the bed, her breathing very weak, as if she might die at any moment.
Zhao Tianlong led Ye Chen into the ward, and everyone's eyes immediately fell on Ye Chen.
Zhao Zhibao saw Ye Chen raise an eyebrow, a hint of surprise in his eyes.
It was simply because Ye Chen was too young, even younger than he had imagined.
"Brother, is this the legendary Doctor Ye?"
Zhao Zhibao spoke without any politeness, while Zhao Yuhu and Zhao Qinglang beside him also had strange expressions on their faces.
"Brother, I'm not trying to be mean, but you're really making a fuss. How could such a young boy possibly be a miracle doctor?"
"Exactly, what if something goes wrong during treatment? Who will be responsible then?"
Zhao Zhibao and Zhao Qinglang worked together in unison.
"Shut up! If you delay your treatment, don't blame me for not showing brotherly affection!"
Zhao Tianlong roared, startling Zhao Zhibao and Zhao Qinglang.
They never expected that Zhao Tianlong would turn against them, his brothers, for such a young upstart.
After reprimanding Zhao Zhibao and Zhao Qinglang, Zhao Tianlong respectfully said, "Dr. Ye, I'm sorry, I apologize to you on behalf of my two brothers."
Ye Chen waved his hand dismissively, then calmly walked to the window and looked at Wen Caixia lying there.
Zhao Zhibao and Zhao Qinglang were indeed even more surprised, as this was the last time they had seen their elder brother so respectful.
That was when the provincial governor came to Wucheng for an inspection, and the Zhao family was responsible for receiving him.
Could it be that the person in front of him is a miracle doctor? Otherwise, there is no way to explain why Zhao Tianlong is so respectful.
Zhao Miaomiao stood respectfully beside Ye Chen and said, "My grandmother suddenly fell into a coma in the afternoon, exactly two days after what Doctor Ye mentioned."
Ye Chen calmly replied, "I already said when I administered the acupuncture that it would last for at most two days."
"I just didn't expect that you two haven't come to a conclusion after two days of discussion."
Hearing this, Zhao Miaomiao lowered her head in shame.
Because she thought Ye Chen was a liar, she naturally didn't take his words seriously.
Moreover, Dr. Robert arrived that very evening with a professional medical team.
A thorough examination was conducted on Madam Wen, and no abnormalities were found.
It's just that with age, various organs are experiencing normal physical decline.
In addition, the old lady of the Wen family was in much better condition after returning, so Zhao Miaomiao forgot about Ye Chen's words.
They only remembered it after the illness had already started, but by then it was too late.
Seeing Zhao Miaomiao's expression, Ye Chen didn't continue the topic.
Instead, he said, "What Old Madam Wen has is not an illness, but a curse."
"A curse?" Everyone looked at Ye Chen with confusion, unable to understand.
At this moment, Zhao Zhibao sneered, "I told you, young people are unreliable. Can't you see that? You don't need to try to fool me like this."
"So you're saying my mother isn't sick, but rather because she's been cursed?"
"Please, this is a scientific society, don't bring up feudal superstitions here!"
As he spoke, Zhao Zhibao looked at Zhao Tianlong and said, "Brother, the one you found is probably not a miracle doctor but a charlatan."
Ye Chen merely glanced at Zhao Zhibao and sneered, "I'm too lazy to bother with a piece of trash like you who will live forever!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhibao immediately became furious and said, "What do you mean!"
While examining Wen Caixia's condition, Ye Chen said, "I observe that your eyes are lifeless, your yang energy is insufficient, and your cheeks and earlobes are pale. This is a typical case of impotence."
“If I’m not mistaken, three years ago you could last about three minutes with medication, but you couldn’t get up at all without it.”
"A year ago, even if you had just taken a bottle of those little blue pills, there probably wouldn't have been any effect whatsoever. What else could it be but immortality?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhibao was first shocked, then flew into a rage, shouting, "You're lying! I! I! I!"
Ye Chen ignored Zhao Zhibao and focused on checking on Madam Wen's condition.
Zhao Tianlong, Zhao Yuhu, and Zhao Qinglang looked at Zhao Zhibao with strange expressions.
Then, as if they all realized something, Zhao Qinglang suddenly said, "No wonder a year ago, Third Brother suddenly stopped going to bars."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhibao's face immediately turned extremely ugly.
Seeing Zhao Zhibao's expression, everyone understood that Ye Chen had hit the nail on the head.
Ye Chen is truly a miraculous doctor. Thinking of this, some people's thoughts immediately became active, after all, who doesn't have minor illnesses and pains these days?
"Ah! I'll kill you!" Zhao Zhibao suddenly went berserk and pounced on Ye Chen.
Having his past exposed in public, how could he ever face the Zhao family again?
Before Zhao Zhibao could get close, Zhao Tianlong stepped in front of him, staring at him coldly.
Zhao Zhibao felt a chill run down his spine when he sensed Zhao Tianlong's gaze.
"Snapped!"
Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, Zhao Tianlong slapped Zhao Zhibao across the face in front of everyone.
"Third brother, it seems that my usual indulgence has made you a little too proud."
"I invited Doctor Ye; it's not your place to cause trouble here."
"Apologize to Doctor Ye right now! Otherwise, don't blame me for punishing you according to family rules!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhibao sneered, "Big brother, you're quite the big shot."
"You want me to apologize to an outsider in the Zhao family? No way!"
"And I've ended up in this situation because of you. What right do you have to act tough in front of me!"
Faced with Zhao Zhibao's questioning, Zhao Tianlong's face turned ugly.
The rest of the Zhao family members looked at Zhao Zhibao and Zhao Tianlong with puzzled expressions.
Why did Zhao Zhibao say that his transformation was related to Zhao Tianlong?
Zhao Miaomiao looked at her father with some doubt, wondering if there were some secrets they didn't know about.
"Third brother, it seems you're not going to apologize. Guards, take him away and make him kneel in the ancestral hall!"
Two bodyguards immediately stepped forward. Zhao Zhibao sneered, "What, feeling guilty?"
"Hmph, I'll make you remember this, you owe me!"
The two bodyguards were about to make their move when Zhao Zhibao waved his hand and said, "I don't need you to lead me. I know where the ancestral hall is!"
With that, Zhao Zhibao turned around and strode out, leaving behind Zhao Tianlong with a livid face.
After Zhao Zhibao left, Zhao Tianlong turned around and said apologetically, "Dr. Ye, I'm sorry to have made you laugh."
Ye Chen waved his hand and said, "This is your family matter and has nothing to do with me. I am only responsible for saving people and I don't care about anything else."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Tianlong quickly replied, "Then I'll trouble you. Doctor Ye, please let me know if you need anything, and I'll have someone prepare it immediately."
Ye Chen has completed his examination of Wen Caixia. To be honest, the situation is more complicated than he had imagined.
Just then, Wen Caixia suddenly trembled, and the machine next to her started sounding an alarm.
Wen Caixia's heart rate and blood pressure began to drop rapidly, and the Zhao family members immediately became nervous upon seeing this.
Dr. Robert exclaimed, "Prepare for resuscitation immediately! Adrenaline!"
Several doctors were also hurriedly preparing a pacemaker and adrenaline.
Zhao Miaomiao also panicked and looked at Ye Chen, saying, "How could this happen, Doctor Ye?"
Ye Chen's eyes flashed with golden light as he saw a surge of black energy suddenly rise above Wen Caixia's head.
"Oh no, whoever cast the curse has made a move. They must have sensed something was wrong and want to take Old Madam Wen's life directly."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Tianlong was startled and asked, "Dr. Ye, what should we do?"
Ye Chen said, "It's alright, I'm here. I naturally won't let them succeed."
"In that case, you should immediately donate to the memorial halls of major revolutionary martyrs in the name of Madam Wen."
"The amount doesn't need to be too large, let's start with ten million."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Tianlong was taken aback for a moment, but without any hesitation, he immediately made a phone call to start making arrangements.
Ye Chen looked at the rising black mist and said coldly, "I want to see who this villain is who is casting curses here to harm people."
"Now that you've fallen into my hands, I'm going to show you what it means to be outmatched."
Zhao Tianlong put down his phone and said, "Dr. Ye, it has already been donated."
Strangely enough, as soon as Zhao Tianlong finished speaking, Grandma Wen's condition gradually stabilized.
Seeing this, Zhao Tianlong was somewhat incredulous, and at the same time, he felt even greater awe for Ye Chen.
In Ye Chen's eyes, in addition to the golden light of merit surrounding Madam Wen, there was an additional layer of red aura like the rising sun.
