Chapter 121: A Pity

The study.

Su Huiqing came in, cool and aloof.

"Grandpa Yu." She sat facing Grandpa Yu and reached over to refill his teacup.

"I asked to see you about the miracle doctor badge." Grandpa Yu raised his teacup and took a sip, his face looking very serious. "Someone has bought it."

"Who?" Su Huiqing lifted her head, surprise flashing across her dark eyes.

She didn't wish to take any action this month.

The miracle doctor badge was priced at $100 million.

Who could afford such a price?

Who in Green City could spend such money?

Grandpa Yu glanced at Su Huiqing and replied slowly, "You should have heard of him. It's Old Mr. Chu."

Su Huiqing was momentarily taken aback.

She had set that rule for the miracle doctor badge as some illnesses were predestined. She would have to suffer the negative consequences of forcibly changing one's fate.

As a result, she would always make the person send in their information before she conducted her treatment. If the person was an evil-doer, she would definitely not rescue him.

"Have him come next weekend," Su Huiqing said as she leaned back against her chair.

She was going to meet Chi Qing and Director Lu this weekend.

"Alright." Having finished saying what he intended to say, Grandpa Yu stood up and opened the door to leave.

Su Huiqing gazed meaningfully at his back profile. She then said very carefully. "Grandpa Yu, you have been rather fidgety and anxious lately."

He looked much older than before. His usually spirited eyes now appeared very dim.

Su Huiqing touched the white jade pendant on her neck. When she detected that Yu Xiangyang had been poisoned, she also noted the toxins in Grandpa Yu's body.

Of all the people in the Ning Family, it was no coincidence that only these two were temperamental.

But she could save Yu Xiangyang, as the toxins in his body were not that widespread.

The more agitated one was, the more quickly the toxins would spread.

And the more the toxins spread, the more fretful one got.

It was a vicious cycle.

Grandpa Yu... the toxins had already been in his body for over several decades.

He was already on his last legs.

Grandpa Yu trembled on hearing Su Huiqing's words.

His twig-like fingers clenched, as a vicious light flashed across his eyes.

His left hand clutched at his chest.

In the end, he bit his lips vehemently before suddenly turning around and collapsing to his knees before Su Huiqing!

"Ms. Su, please save Xiangyang's life!" His eyes were filled with pleading.

Su Huiqing stood up quietly. This was the first time she was witnessing Grandpa Yu in such a state.

She bent over and helped him to his feet. The light in her eyes was chilly. "Get up first then we will talk. Xiangyang is my friend. I will never let him be harmed, even if you didn't ask me to help."
