Chapter 598: Chapter 598: Find a Way to Raise Money_1
"Dad! Opportunities like this come once in a lifetime!"
Tao Donglai was anxious, knowing that if they didn’t secure Aimeiruike this time, they wouldn’t know when another opportunity would arise—it might take eons.
"Isn’t it just an old man? Send Tao Yi. Tao Yi is a high-level expert at the Yellow Rank of the Innate Realm. Taking down an old man couldn’t be easier!"
"Besides, it’s just half an elixir. Nongsang, that old man, would surely hand it over directly as long as he’s not stupid."
"If he doesn’t, then we’ll have Tao Yi overpower his granddaughter on the spot!"
"And even if Tao Yi accidentally kills Nongsang, as long as we erase the traces, who would suspect us?"
"Even if someone does find out, the man would already be dead, so what more could be done?"
"Dad, haven’t you always told me that people are selfish! The reason those dignitaries from Feng City and Dragon City maintain good relations with Nongsang is purely because Nongsang can heal people. But if Nongsang were dead, do you think those dignitaries would go to war with our Tao Family over a dead man?"
Tao Wenqiang didn’t respond, his mind racing with thoughts—Donglai’s words did hold some truth.
A person only has relations and networks when they are alive. Once dead, everything vanishes into thin air.
Park Taiyu and Li Chengzhi remained silent, lifting their teacups on the table and slowly savoring their tea, waiting for Tao Wenqiang’s decision.
After a full half-minute, Tao Wenqiang raised his head, saying in a heavy tone, "Fine! I’ll lend you Tao Yi! In addition, I’ll assign a squad of ten to assist Chairman Park with his mission."
"Good!"
Park Taiyu stood up, and this time, he extended his right hand first, "I look forward to a pleasant cooperation!"
Tao Wenqiang extended his hand as well, "Pleasant cooperation!"
...
At six o’clock in the evening, after getting checked at Renkang Hospital, Tao Pinggui first made a trip to the Luo Family Villa.
The main reason he went to Renkang Hospital was to have Lin Renxin confirm whether he had truly recovered.
Lin Renxin personally examined him, and upon seeing that particular area, Lin Renxin was stunned on the spot.
Could it be? In just a few days, what had been ulcerated and oozing pus had nearly healed, and even those red spots had disappeared.
Not wanting to credit Mo Han for his recovery, Tao Pinggui attributed his health to Gui Nongsang, and Lin Renxin nodded repeatedly, praising the ancient physician as a master healer.
At that moment, the Luo Family Villa was brightly lit.
Old Lady Luo and her family were sitting around the dining table, expressionless and silent.
Despite a table full of delicious dishes, they had no appetite.
Ever since Tao Pinggui went to the hospital the previous night, he had never returned, nor had he placed a single phone call.
Old Lady Luo was still hoping to get some funds from Tao Pinggui to restart the original projects.
She sighed and finally opened the conversation, "Zi Tong, is Chairman Tao’s illness curable?"
Chen Guihua also chimed in, "Zi Tong, you were with him at the hospital last night. What did the doctors say? Can he be cured or not?"
Luo Xuanran couldn’t bear to see his sister troubled and retorted, "What does it matter to my sister whether that Tao guy gets better or not!"
"Shut your mouth!"
Old Lady Luo frowned deeply, scolding, "Chairman Tao is our Luo Family’s hope right now! If his illness isn’t cured, our entire family will be in trouble!"
Luo Yuantu sighed and added, "Xuan Ran, your grandmother is right."
"Our Luo Family’s resurrection was all thanks to Chairman Tao."
"If Chairman Tao’s illness doesn’t show improvement soon, our family’s situation won’t be optimistic. In fact, he might even take out his frustration on Zi Tong and our Luo Family..."
Luo Zitong was also perplexed, her emotions quite complex at the moment.
When she was abused by Tao Pinggui, she felt humiliated. Logically, since Tao Pinggui had lost that ability and was now rotting, he shouldn’t do anything to her anymore, and she should feel liberated.
But as Tao Yi had said, if Tao Pinggui’s illness isn’t cured, in his anger, he was very likely to vent his fury on her and the Luo Family.
Creak...
While everyone was silent, the iron gate outside the Luo Family Villa opened.
Surprisingly, Tao Pinggui, leaning on a walking stick and limping with the support of the bodyguard Tao Wu, entered.
"Chairman Tao! You’re finally back!"
Old Lady Luo’s eyes brightened, and she promptly got up to greet him.
Seeing Tao Pinggui not in a wheelchair but using crutches made her smile, "Is your leg better now? That’s wonderful news!"
Luo Zitong also came forward, a pale smile appearing on her face, "Pinggui, you’re back. Is your illness cured?"
"Almost," Tao Pinggui spoke indifferently, "The external ulceration and pus have been healed. However, there are some things I can’t do anymore."
There are some things he can’t do? What does that mean?
Old Lady Luo was initially puzzled but then her eyes widened in realization.
Luo Zitong’s lips quivered slightly, feeling both joy and loss—relieved she would no longer be mistreated by Tao Pinggui, yet sorrowful because, although he was sometimes rough, he had given her different sensations.
Chen Guihua was unwilling to give up on her multibillionaire son-in-law so quickly, anxiously suggesting, "Chairman Tao, why don’t you let Zi Tong accompany you to places like Dragon City, Feng City, or Harbor City to seek treatment? There are many famous doctors there; maybe they can cure you."
"Ah..."
Tao Pinggui sighed dejectedly, "It’s no use, the nerves there are dead. Even the world-renowned Aimeiruike Medical Team couldn’t do anything, let alone others."
"I’ve come to terms with it. Being cured of the ulceration is fortunate enough."
Pausing, he continued with a cold gaze towards Luo Zitong and the others of the Luo Family, "Ever since I came to your house, my luck has been terrible. If it wasn’t a broken leg, it was that place rotting."
"I’ve had my fortune told, and our eight characters are incompatible. If I continue to mix with your family, I’ll face even greater disasters in the future!"
"I’m here to announce that our partnership ends here!"
"I’ll be reclaiming all the previous investments, and you’ll need to figure out how to raise the money!"
