"Oh, I see," Luo Chao smiled, "How about inviting your wife to have a al together?"
"Luo buddy, there's really no need to be so polite," Long Zhenguo affectionately patted his shoulder, "If you're feeling obliged, why not do this old brother a favor? But if you can't, forget it, I think there's probably no one in the world who can help with this."
Hearing this made it sound difficult, Luo Chao felt a bit curious and smiled, "Alright, whatever favor it is, as long as I can help, I surely will."
Given that Luo Chao ca from a military background, he didn't want to confront people in official circles directly, and Secretary Long always helped him solve the troubles, scaring these people into submission, so Luo Chao felt a bit embarrassed about it. Hearing Secretary Long now asking for his help, he felt rather delighted.
However, he once saved the life of Secretary Long's son, Long Xiaoyu, and Long Zhenguo felt this enormous debt of gratitude could never be repaid in his lifeti. But currently, he really needs a major favor from Luo Chao, though he believes Luo Chao might not be able to help, he still needs to voice it out and give it a try.
Long Zhenguo thought for a mont and said, "My mom is seriously ill, she's diagnosed with late-stage esophageal cancer, she can't eat or drink every day, her whole body thin to a point where she's unrecognizable —"
"My mom is just 60 years old," said Long Zhenguo, his voice choked with emotion. His father had died early, leaving his mother to raise him alone, and he felt she was the greatest person in the world, truly hoping she could live a few more years as he felt he hadn't properly fulfilled his filial duty yet.
Esophageal cancer! Luo Chao was taken aback, this was indeed a severe illness, with the dical technology of the ti, even chemotherapy couldn't last a month.
"Secretary Long, I understand what you an," Luo Chao nodded, "I can't guarantee to cure your mother, but maybe I have a few thods to make her live a few more years."
Long Zhenguo was stunned for a mont, then excitedly grabbed Luo Chao's shoulders with both hands, his body shaking vigorously, "Luo buddy, is what you said true?"
"Yes, but I can't guarantee it completely," Luo Chao replied with a smile. When it cos to treating illnesses and saving lives, it's best not to speak too confidently to avoid greater disappointnt that people can't withstand, turning good intentions into counterproductive efforts.
Long Zhenguo nodded heavily, "Alright, you go ahead and give it a try, no matter what happens, I won't bla you!"
As long as there's hope, it's all that matters. Long Zhenguo felt utterly thrilled; he believed that Luo Chao's abilities might be extraordinary. Back then, when Xiaoyu had already stopped breathing, Luo Chao pulled him back from the gates of death — his dical skills must have the power to transform decay into marvel!
Luo Chao smiled, "Okay, let's get in touch tomorrow morning."
"So soon?" Long Zhenguo couldn't help exclaim.
Luo Chao joked with a smile, "Secretary Long, your mother is enduring the pain day and night, so the sooner, the better, of course."
People who don't understand the situation might think that Luo Chao is actually Long Zhenguo's mother's son! Long Zhenguo's old face flushed with embarrassnt as he laughed heartily, "Yes, yes, the sooner, the better. I'll call you tomorrow morning."
"Okay, great!" Luo Chao nodded. Secretary Long laughed and said, "I have other things to attend to, so I'll head off first," and he walked away with big strides, feeling blessed by fate to know Luo Chao, who was so mysterious and capable.
Luo Chao didn't want to sit idly at the parent eting any longer. He took a glance at Shen Birong, who stood on the podium, attentively speaking to the parents, and quietly left.
However, a sinister gaze from an office at the top floor of the school building was fixed on the graceful figure of Shen Birong—
The night was deep, and the parent eting didn't end until 6:30 PM. When Shen Birong tiredly left the school, she found it was already 7 o'clock. She headed towards the bus station not far from the school, and at that mont, two n followed behind her.
"Hello, Ms. Shen," the two n greeted with smiling eyes.
Shen Birong looked at them cautiously. She rembered these two from the parent eting, who sat in front of and diagonally opposite Luo Chao. Earlier, one of them tripped her.
"Hello, what can I do for you?" With one look, Shen Birong could tell these two n in their 30s carried a rogue deanor, not appearing like serious individuals. They were temporary guardians called in from outside by students, and Shen Birong intended to call the parents of these students when she got ho to inquire about this matter.
Of course, that included Hao Keren's parents.
In the corners of the n's eyes, a lewd glint was hidden as they chuckled, "We see how hardworking Ms. Shen is, and we'd like to invite you for dinner tonight."
Shen Birong shook her head, "Sorry, I have things to do tonight."
"Just a casual al, Ms. Shen, how could you be so heartless to reject us?" The two n couldn't help but approach her, captivated by Shen Birong's charming and picturesque face.
Shen Birong, frightened, stepped back two paces and reprimanded, "What do you want? If you co any closer, I'll call the police."
"Call the police, do you think it's useful now?" The n, eyes glinting with lust, laughed as they closed in on her, "So you'd better comply with us, we'll definitely give you an unforgettable night."
This gentle and friendly Ms. Shen, once photographed in compromising positions, would surely fear reporting them. The two n had already harbored evil thoughts and planned it out thoroughly.
"Don't co any closer," Shen Birong took out a taser from her bag, trembling, "Don't co any closer," she whispered, trembling.
Taser? The two n were montarily stunned, then one of them swiftly knocked the taser from Shen Birong's hand. She hadn't even gotten a chance to turn it on.
No matter what, an unard and defenseless woman couldn't handle these two n even if she held a knife.
"Behave yourself," the n shouted, rushing toward Shen Birong. It was night now, and because it was Friday with no evening study sessions at school, the deserted surroundings were devoid of people.
The two n feared complications, wanting to swiftly abduct Shen Birong.
"Ah! Help!" Shen Birong scread, but scanning her surroundings revealed no sign of anyone, her heart sank to the bottom. Luo Chao, where are you? Why didn't you wait for to leave together?
Tears welled up in Shen Birong's eyes, as the tall figure of Luo Chao flashed through her mind. She glanced at the bus stop sign, a look of resolute determination in her eyes. Luo Chao, I, Shen Birong, am already yours, forever yours, for this lifeti!
