26: Chapter 26 Chu Shanhe Goes Blind_1 26: Chapter 26 Chu Shanhe Goes Blind_1 “Uncle, I still suggest that you go to the hospital to have your eyes checked as soon as possible.

The nerve toxin in your body has worsened, and if it’s not treated in time, there really is a risk of blindness!” Out of consideration for Chu Mengyao’s face, Lu Chuan still offered a reminder.

Chu Shanhe stiffened, feeling that Lu Chuan was still criticizing him for being blind.

Burning with rage, he glanced at him and left the place.

Lu Chuan looked helpless, “Well, I’ve reminded him twice anyway.

If he doesn’t believe it, he can’t blame me.”

He turned and walked over to the judges’ bench and asked, “Can I receive the reward for first place now?”

Zhou Siming smiled and handed a brocade box to Lu Chuan, “Young man, you’re very talented.

I wonder if you’d be interested in becoming my apprentice?

Although I, Zhou, can’t claim to have made major achievements in medical practice, I do rank quite highly in Cloud City.”

The surrounding judges all wore expressions of shock.

“Old Zhou announced ten years ago that he would no longer take on apprentices, and today he’s made an exception.

It seems he really thinks highly of Lu Chuan!”

“Back in the day, so many young talents knelt before Old Zhou pleading to be taken as apprentices, and he didn’t even glance at them.

Today, he has actually offered to take an apprentice himself; Lu Chuan is really lucky!”

…

Lu Chuan accepted the brocade box and saw that it indeed contained a fifty-year-old ginseng.

A smile appeared on his face.

Then he gave a respectful bow to Zhou Siming and said, “I appreciate Old Zhou’s kindness, but I currently have no plans to take a master.

I’m sorry.”

The expressions on the faces of the judges instantly turned to ones of frustration.

“Kid, such an opportunity comes once in a lifetime.

So many people would crack their heads open for the chance to become Old Zhou’s apprentice, and you’d be foolish to pass it up!”

“This is a great opportunity to change your fate.

Becoming Old Zhou’s apprentice would save you decades of detours.

Don’t you want to make a name for yourself?”

…

Lu Chuan smiled and said, “Thank you all for your kindness, but I already have a master, so I won’t trouble Old Zhou.”

Zhou Siming looked regretful, “Since you already have a master, I won’t insist.

However, if you have any questions in the future, you can always come to me.”

Lu Chuan bowed again, “Thank you, Old Zhou.”

He exchanged contact information with Zhou Siming and then left with the medicinal herbs.

Back at home, Lu Chuan thought it over and still decided to call Chu Mengyao to inform her about Chu Shanhe’s condition and suggested that she persuade Chu Shanhe to go to the hospital for a check-up as soon as possible.

Then he began to prepare the elixir pill to enhance his strength.

In the evening, at the Chu family’s old residence.

Chu Shanhe sat at the dinner table eating.

A beautiful woman brought over a dish and sat down.

Her eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to Chu Mengyao’s; her still-charming face showed that she had also been a stunning beauty in her youth.

This person was none other than Chu Mengyao’s mother, Zhao Haitang.

“You don’t seem to be in a good mood.

Who annoyed you?” Zhao Haitang asked, looking at Chu Shanhe.

Chu Shanhe, as if he had been holding back for a long time, immediately responded upon hearing Zhao Haitang’s question, “If not for your wonderful daughter, you should ask her about the kind of riff-raff she’s recently befriended, treating some no-good characters as friends.

She’s truly disgracing the Chu family!”

Zhao Haitang said with a smile, “Look at how angry you are.

Your daughter is an adult; she at least has basic judgment skills.

You don’t have to control everything she does.”

Chu Shanhe snorted coldly, “If she truly had any judgment, she wouldn’t have any interactions with those kinds of people.

She’s just too naïve and too simple.

Without my protection, could she have grown up so content and happy?”

At that moment, a voice drifted over, “I’m not happy at all.”

Both turned their heads and discovered that Chu Mengyao, unbeknownst to them, had already arrived at the door.

Zhao Haitang quickly got up and pulled her daughter over, laughing, “Yaoyao, sit down, I’ll serve you some food right away.

You rarely come home for dinner, so tell Mom what dishes you’d like to eat, and I’ll make them for you.”

Chu Mengyao shook her head, “No need, Mom, I’ve already eaten.”

She looked at Chu Shanhe and said, “Lu Chuan told me that your eyes are in a very bad state.

If you don’t get treatment in time, the probability of blindness is very high.

I think you should call Dr.

Chen over for a thorough examination.”

Bang!

Chu Shanhe slammed his chopsticks down on the table.

He glared at Chu Mengyao angrily, “You believe the words of that arrogant fool?

Can’t you tell that he’s just insulting me by saying I’m blind?”

Chu Mengyao frowned and said, “Father, Lu Chuan didn’t mean that; you’re overthinking it.

His medical skills are indeed very impressive.

You should trust him this time.”

Chu Shanhe snorted and went to get a recent health report, throwing it in front of Chu Mengyao, “Take a good look for yourself.

The part about my eyes in this health check is all clear.

You don’t trust modern medical technology, but you believe that kid’s nonsense—are you not foolish?”

Chu Mengyao picked up the report and glanced at it.

Upon realizing that all the results concerning her eyes were healthy, she couldn’t help but wonder, “Could it really be Lu Chuan, that bastard, indirectly cursing my dad?”

Chu Shanhe said with a stern face, “Chu Mengyao, you need to be clear about your identity, from now on you are not allowed to have any contact with such people!”

“Sit down and eat.”

Chu Mengyao sighed, “You all eat, I still have things to take care of at the company.

I need to go there.”

She turned around tiredly and left the place.

Zhao Haitang looked at Chu Shanhe with blame, “Can’t you speak nicely to your daughter?

It’s always with this commanding tone.

Haven’t you noticed that she rarely smiles in front of us anymore?”

Chu Shanhe said coldly, “If I don’t do this, she won’t understand my kind intentions.”

“That so-called friend of hers has indirectly cursed my blindness twice.

The fact that I haven’t gotten angry is already giving her face.”

Zhao Haitang knew that Chu Shanhe was in a bad mood, so she didn’t continue the topic and instead asked, “I’m quite interested in Mengyao’s friend.

Tell me why he has angered you so much.”

Chu Shanhe snorted coldly, “He’s nothing but a frog in a well, not worth talking about.”

The next morning.

Zhao Haitang got up and saw that it was already light outside, so she poked Chu Shanhe beside her and said, “Old Chu, get up, it’s time for our morning exercise.”

Chu Shanhe opened his eyes groggily, not knowing why, but he had slept heavily throughout the night and his eyes felt uncomfortable.

He was certain this was because of Lu Chuan’s curse.

He rubbed his eyes only to find complete darkness around him and said somewhat speechlessly, “It’s still so dark.

Where are you going for morning exercise?

You must be doing this on purpose to take your daughter’s side.”

Zhao Haitang, who was already out of bed, looked confused.

She walked to the window and drew the curtains open.

The sunlight instantly shone on Chu Shanhe’s face, “What are you babbling about?

The sun is already so high up, where is it dark?”

Chu Shanhe couldn’t help but laugh, “You really do love your daughter.

To take her side, you’re even willing to play along with me.”

“I won’t deal with you anymore.

I’m going back to sleep.

Looking at this sky, it’s still a long time till dawn.”

After speaking, he lay back down on the bed.

Zhao Haitang’s face was full of astonishment.

She quickly walked to the bedside, pulled Chu Shanhe over, and said, “Old Chu, open your eyes and look at me.”

Chu Shanhe was helpless, he said with his eyes open, “It’s so dark, I can’t see anything even if I do open my eyes.”

Zhao Haitang, incredulous, waved her hand in front of Chu Shanhe’s eyes and after realizing he had no reaction, she covered her mouth in panic, backing away and almost falling over.

Chu Shanhe chided, “If you’re going to get out of bed, turn on the lights.

Why are you playing this act with me?

If you fall and hurt yourself, I won’t feel sorry for you.”

Zhao Haitang, with fear written all over her face, leant over the bed and said in a panic, “Old Chu, don’t scare me please.

It’s already seven in the morning, the sun has risen.

Can you really not see anything at all?”

Chu Shanhe heard the panic in Zhao Haitang’s voice and his brow furrowed.

He sat up and carefully felt his eyes, only then realizing that it wasn’t the dark of night he was seeing, but a state in which he perceived absolutely no light.

A chill went through his heart and he tried to remain calm, “Quick, go get Dr.

Chen!”

Zhao Haitang didn’t hesitate and immediately dialed Dr.

Chen’s number.

An hour later.

Dr.

Chen stood in front of Chu Shanhe’s window, staring at the just-made inspection report with furrowed brows.

Then he picked up a flashlight and carefully examined Chu Shanhe’s eyeball, before tremblingly saying, “Family Head Chu, it seems your eyes have been infected with an extremely rare neurotoxin.

It’s hard to detect, so the previous examinations didn’t pick it up.

Now that the toxin has spread, your eyes…

I’m afraid they can no longer be treated.”

Chu Shanhe never imagined that what Lu Chuan said was actually true and he punched the bed in anger, “Not detected?

Aren’t you renowned internationally?

What am I paying you so much money for then?”

Dr.

Chen was scared, “Family Head Chu, I…

I never expected you to be infected with this kind of neurotoxin.

According to the recent tests, it has very strong dormant characteristics.

You might have been infected months ago, and now that it has accumulated to a certain extent, it has exploded with symptoms.

Modern medicine is simply unable to cope with this!”

Chu Shanhe gritted his teeth.

He had been infected with the neurotoxin months ago, so it couldn’t have been Lu Chuan who intentionally poisoned him.

But the fact that Lu Chuan could see what was wrong at a glance, something modern medicine couldn’t handle, was hard for him to accept.

He controlled his emotions and asked, “So there’s really no way to treat my eyes?”

Dr.

Chen nodded, “Yes…

that’s the case.

And the neurotoxins are still spreading.

If we can’t control them, they will quickly invade your brain.

Then…”

Zhao Haitang’s face turned pale with fear.

If something happened to Chu Shanhe, the entire Chu family would face a disaster.

She grabbed Dr.

Chen with an agitated expression, “Dr.

Chen, you must think of something.

You can’t let anything happen to Old Chu!”

Dr.

Chen looked helplessly, “I…

I am truly powerless, even the most advanced medical care abroad probably has no method to deal with this neurotoxin!”

Chu Shanhe completely panicked, his face turning deathly pale and his voice shaking, “Quick…

Call Mengyao and ask her to contact Lu Chuan.

He is my only hope now!”
