Overbearing Immortal Doctor
Chapter 42 - 42 Revised 42 Be Careful and Cautious

42: Revised: Chapter 42 Be Careful and Cautious 42: Revised: Chapter 42 Be Careful and Cautious A single drop of blood can earn three hundred thousand.

Since when did butchers become so valuable?

Fortunately, my father was a butcher in his younger days.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t be worth much, and my blood wouldn’t be worth anything.

Wu Xiaoyu stayed inside the Jade Token for a while and felt that all his exhaustion had been swept away.

Looking at the comprehensive and all-encompassing Xuanyuan Treasure Book before him, Wu Xiaoyu wished he could finish reading it all in one go.

But this book is several centimeters thick.

It might take a lifetime to finish.

Wu Xiaoyu closed the book, practiced the Yin Yang Longevity Technique once again, and then went to sleep.

Early the next morning, Wu Xiaoyu sent a text message to Ma Xiaomin’s mother, saying that he could come to have a look but couldn’t guarantee he could cure her ailment.

Even so, Ma Xiaomin’s mother expressed her heartfelt gratitude and arranged for someone to pick him up at the station.

After breakfast, Wu Xiaoyu made an excuse to go to the county to buy chicks and smoothly left the house.

He walked to the town and boarded a bus heading for the county town.

Twice he went to the city, both times to make money, and each time he earned more than before.

Could it be that the city is his lucky place?

He should find a day to get a proper divination!

After over an hour’s ride, just as he was stepping out of the station, an Audi drove up, stopping right by his feet.

A man in a suit got out of the car, opened the back door, and said, “Mr.

Wu, please get in the car!”

Wu Xiaoyu was about to ask how this man recognized him when he saw Zhou Dong sitting in the back seat, looking at him with a smirking face.

“Damn!

Why are you here?” Wu Xiaoyu asked as he got in.

Zhou Dong adjusted his sleeves, adopting a rather arrogant pose, and said, “You rascal!

Coming to the city without telling me?

Luckily, I have eyes and ears everywhere.

I heard the news; otherwise, you would have slipped away!”

What a show!

Wu Xiaoyu laughed, “Isn’t the college entrance exam just around the corner?

How did your old man let you out?”

“Because the exam is near, we finally got a break!

They say we need to relax, but I want to ask the teacher, when have I ever been nervous?” Zhou Dong sneered.

The two exchanged some crude jokes, and then Zhou Dong, glancing at the people in the front seats, lowered his voice and explained:

“My dad and Ma Xiaomin’s dad are classmates.

Didn’t you say she was possessed?

This morning, I heard her mom found you, but they don’t know you, so I volunteered to pick you up!”

Wu Xiaoyu, seeing Zhou Dong’s relaxed expression, knew that he only saw the college entrance exam as a formality to appease his old man.

It seemed that once his chickens were raised, they wouldn’t have trouble being sold.

The Audi didn’t go straight to Ma Xiaomin’s house but first stopped at Zhou Dong’s family restaurant.

What did this mean?

Getting out of the car and looking at the sign “Super Delicious,” Wu Xiaoyu felt a bit chilly.

A restaurant aiming to become a chain, with such a tacky name, could it really get popular?

The two got out of the car and headed to the private room upstairs.

Just as they pushed the door open, Wu Xiaoyu felt a powerful aura wash over him.

Looking up, he saw a stern-faced middle-aged man sitting in the main seat, with a slightly chubby, smiling Mile sitting next to him.

Zhou Dong hurriedly introduced, “This is Ma Xiaomin’s father, and this is my father!”

Zhou Dong’s father stood up, smiled warmly, and said, “I just heard this morning that you and our Zhou Dong are classmates, truly remarkable for someone so young!”

The man in the main seat, however, remained motionless and silent, only glancing at Wu Xiaoyu and then at Zhou Dong’s father.

Zhou Dong felt awkward, stuck between his father and his brother, and quickly spoke up, “Uncle Ma, this is Wu Xiaoyu, the one who noticed something was wrong with little Min last time!”

Ma Xiaomin’s father then said, “Have a seat!”

Wu Xiaoyu and Zhou Dong sat down together.

Ma Xiaomin’s father fell silent again, deeply doubtful.

Could this kid really cure Ma Xiaomin’s ailment?

Rumor had it he’d dropped out of school long ago; could he be a con artist?

Despite Zhou Dong’s father and Ma Xiaomin’s father being old classmates, one was in business, and the other in government, their positions were clearly distinct.

Zhou Dong’s father, noticing his old classmate’s doubt, spoke up, “Since you and Zhou Dong are classmates, I’ll take the liberty of calling you nephew.”

Wu Xiaoyu quickly nodded and said, “Feel free!

Call me whatever you like!”

“Okay!

Then uncle wants to ask where you learned these healing techniques…” Realizing his old classmate was an official, he quickly amended, “Where did you learn these methods?”

“What healing?

I thought little Min…” Zhou Dong began to ask, only to be interrupted by his father.

“It’s not that uncle doesn’t trust you, but it’s better to be clear about such things!”

Wu Xiaoyu understood that people of such status would need to investigate the matter first, but since time was pressing, he had no choice but to ask directly.

Of course, Wu Xiaoyu couldn’t reveal the secrets involved, so he explained, “When I was working in Guangdong Province, I learned from an old gentleman in a park.

As for his name, I can’t reveal that!”

Zhou Dong, listening so long, finally realized his father and Uncle Ma didn’t believe Wu Xiaoyu had the ability and quickly recalled what happened to Ma Xiaomin that night.

He said:

“Uncle Ma, that night I personally saw little Min being possessed… uh!

Having a fit… having a fit!

I personally saw her having a fit.

My brother just touched her, and she was fine!”

Though Ma Xiaomin’s father still didn’t fully trust Wu Xiaoyu, he had watched Zhou Dong grow up and surely wouldn’t lie to him.

He said:

“In that case, I trouble Mr.

Wu to come with me.

If you can cure little Min’s ailment, everything will be fine.

But if not, I hope Mr.

Wu won’t spread rumors.

Remember, words can cause trouble!”

This was a blatant threat, but considering the man’s status, Wu Xiaoyu quickly understood.

After all, the competition was fierce, and being cautious wasn’t a bad thing.

Moreover, to humble himself and meet an unknown person for his daughter’s sake showed his deep parental love.

He couldn’t be a bad person, so Wu Xiaoyu decided to forgive him for now.

The four of them didn’t stay long in the private room before heading back downstairs and getting into the Audi.

Just as Zhou Dong sat down, his father kicked him out.

Wu Xiaoyu sat in the back seat with Ma Xiaomin’s father, feeling uneasy, as if an invisible force was enveloping him.

Could this be the authority built up from years of being in a high position?
