Cancer — even today, with humanity's advanced technological civilization, it remains a problem that mankind has yet to conquer. And now, before everyone's eyes, Ding Fan was claiming he could cure cancer, which made everyone exchange glances in disbelief.
If anyone other than Ding Fan had made such a statent, people would certainly think he was bullshitting. After all, even The Stars and Stripes Country, with its cutting-edge technology, was helpless against cancer, let alone Ding Fan.
But the one who said he could cure cancer was Ding Fan himself.
When Ding Fan previously introduced the ultimate version of the Pill and claid it could cure heart disease, many were skeptical. However, what happened later proved that Ding Fan's ultimate Heart Calming Pill indeed cured heart disease.
Ding Fan was a man who could create miracles, so those present didn't think he was boasting — they vaguely felt that perhaps he truly could do it.
"Dad… can you really cure my mom?" At that mont, as soon as Song Tao heard his mother could be healed, his little eyes glead with hope.
Dad? This little mouth of Song Tao's was really sweet.
Ding Fan nodded slightly. "But, I'm afraid it's not possible today. Let's do it tomorrow, tomorrow I will treat your mother's cancer."
Why didn't Ding Fan choose to treat her today?
That was because Ding Fan had his own considerations. On one hand, he needed to prepare the Pill. On the other hand, he wanted to create so hype with the knowledge he had learned from Lin Qingqing, which made him believe that many would co tomorrow to witness Ding Fan curing Song Tao's mother.
"Thank you, daddy…" Song Tao planted a kiss on Ding Fan's cheek before climbing off him and then dashed over to Li Shuying.
"Mom, dad said he could save you, he definitely will… Now, mom, you don't have to die!" Song Tao clung tightly to Li Shuying's neck, affectionately.
The little guy was calling daddy and mommy interchangeably, which felt quite chaotic, but none of those present laughed at him.
Looking at little Song Tao, so young yet having already endured many hardships in life — abandoned by his father, with a gravely ill mother, and nearly sold by traffickers...
Everyone began to pray, hoping that Ding Fan would indeed cure the little boy's mother…
Lin Qingqing also approached Song Tao and calmly crouched down. "Song Tao, mommy is very tired today, how about letting her find a place to rest now?"
Lin Qingqing was very considerate. Currently, Li Shuying's complexion was very poor.
Li Shuying was already extrely weak. Her emotional state had fluctuated greatly earlier because of Song Zheyuan, so her current condition was not very good.
Song Tao turned out to be a sensible child. He quickly said to Lin Qingqing, "Second mommy, I'll listen to you?"
Second mommy?
Lin Qingqing was amused by Song Tao's calling. "Why do you call second mommy?"
Song Tao's childish face blushed slightly. "My mom is the big mommy, and from now on, you will be my second mommy…"
Lin Qingqing gently stroked Song Tao's head. "Alright, from now on, your second mommy will care for and love you just like your real mom!"
Song Tao nodded understandingly.
Ding Fan, watching from the side, found the whole thing quite amusing. Here was talk of a big mommy and a second mommy — to the uninford, it might look like he was quite the ladies' man.
Without further delay, Lin Qingqing quickly arranged for her assistant to process Li Shuying's hospital admission.
Li Shuying's condition needed care. Before, they had no money for a hospital stay, but now that Lin Qingqing had co into the picture, they no longer had to tough it out — it was ti for a hospital stay.
Li Shuying's arrangents were swiftly made, after which Ding Fan, along with Mu Zi and Song Tao, accompanied Lin Qingqing to the hotel.
Lin Qingqing had caused quite a stir, aiming to make it seem to others that she had an intimate relationship with Ding Fan, which would help her avoid an arranged marriage with Wang Zeen from the Wang Family.
The show wasn't over yet, so of course, Ding Fan had to continue playing his part.
On their way, Ding Fan introduced Mu Zi and Lin Qingqing to each other.
The girls seed to click easily and by the ti they had traveled from the airport to the hotel, they were already chatting enthusiastically.
After delivering Lin Qingqing to the hotel, she did not rush Ding Fan and the others away. Only after they had dinner, did Ding Fan take Mu Zi and Song Tao back to the military's guesthouse.
Although Song Tao was only seven or eight years old, he was still a boy, and staying with Lin Qingqing would have its inconveniences, so it was more appropriate for him to stay directly with Ding Fan.
Back at the military guesthouse, Mu Zi arranged a room for Song Tao. After she had left, Ding Fan needed to prepare for tomorrow's treatnt of Li Shuying and couldn't waste the evening. He had to refine so Pills that could treat cancer…
Without delay, Ding Fan took out the cauldron from his storage ring, released Ranran, and then began the process of refinent...
In Yanjing, within the Ye Family's backyard garden.
The Ye Family's ancestral ho was said to have been the Mansion of a prince during the Qing Dynasty. After the founding of the new regi, because of the Ye Family's contributions, the residence was given to them.
Over the years, the Ye Family had lived there, and although they had renovated the Prince's Mansion extensively, the backyard garden had been kept intact.
Reflect upon oneself and cultivate one's morality... This is the ancestral teaching left behind by the Ye Family.
Ye Ningbing, in a beige dress, leaned against the railing to watch the flowers...
At this mont, with the moon high in the sky, there were still two streetlights in the garden that had not been turned off. Under the light, Ye Ningbing's serene and beautiful figure, like a fairy descending to the mortal world, stood quietly...
"He accepted the things I gave him, right?" Ye Ningbing's lips parted slightly as she spoke to the woman behind her.
The woman standing behind Ye Ningbing was none other than Mary, who had gone to deliver the bank card to Ding Fan that afternoon.
Because Ye Ningbing had to avoid the Ye Family's watchful eyes when giving Ding Fan gifts, Mary dared not rashly call or ssage Ye Ningbing. She only dared to wait until the night was quiet before seeking her out.
In fact, Ye Ningbing felt that asking this question was superfluous. Now, she just wanted to know if Ding Fan had taken her money and left under the cover of night.
"He didn't take it..." Mary said at that mont.
What?!
The originally calm Ye Ningbing slowly turned her head around, a flash of confusion passing through her clear, beautiful eyes.
Not take her money?
Ye Ningbing had thought of many possibilities, but she had never imagined that Ding Fan would refuse the money she offered.
For a mont, Ye Ningbing rembered the day when Ye Chenming's car nearly ran soone over. That was her last encounter with Ding Fan, who appeared calm and composed at the ti. There seed to be a noble air about him that commanded respect...
This was nothing like the blundering fool who had burst into her changing room that day.
Could it be that after suffering hardship, he had truly grown up?
"Ningbing, don't trouble yourself any further, and there's no need for you to continue feeling guilty about the Ding Family's downfall. After all, you already warned Ding Fan. Now that he chose not to leave, it has nothing to do with you," Mary said by her side.
Because Ding Fan had barged into the changing room that day, and the Ding Family was exterminated afterward, Ye Ningbing felt an unbearable pang of remorse whenever she thought about it.
Ye Ningbing still rembered the incident when Ding Fan had intruded into her changing room. After a montary daze, he had beco frantic.
Perhaps realizing the gravity of his mistake at that ti, he knelt before Ye Ningbing, begging for her forgiveness.
As astute as Ye Ningbing was, she obviously understood that the situation was far from simple. For soone to blunder into the changing room of a direct descendant of one of the Four Great Families was an exceedingly difficult feat. She believed that Ding Fan's intrusion into her changing room must have been part of soone else's sche.
Ye Ningbing had promised not to seek revenge against Ding Fan at the ti and had let him go.
However, the subsequent events unfolded entirely beyond Ye Ningbing's expectations. Ding Fan was beaten half to death and thrown into the police station. Overnight, the Ding Family was directly expelled by a joint effort of the Ye and Wang Families!
Rembering Ding Fan, who had knelt on the ground begging for his life, Ye Ningbing felt a wave of pity. Although Ding Fan was detestable, the calamity of his family's extermination was too severe...
Ye Ningbing also understood that the destruction of the Ding Family was nothing more than the sacrifice of a pawn in the power gas of the great families. Nevertheless, she still felt she owed sothing to Ding Fan.
That's why this ti, she went behind her own family's back, contacting her good friend Mary to urge Ding Fan to leave Yanjing quickly.
Yet in the end, not only did Ding Fan refuse the money she offered, but he also showed no intention of leaving...
"Then let him fend for himself..." Ye Ningbing sighed softly before leaning against the railing, gazing into the night sky.
She had done all she could...
In Ye Ningbing's eyes, she had already done more than enough for a person who was irrelevant to her.
...
At the military region guesthouse, Ding Fan spent an entire night refining three Pills.
It took all night, and even that was thanks to Ranran. Without the Nine Luminaries Fire from within Ranran's body, just the refinent of those three Pills might have taken a week, or even longer!
After everyone got up in the morning and Ding Fan had breakfast, he went next door to visit i Li.
i Li's complexion looked sowhat better today, and although she still couldn't get out of bed, her condition was improving.
After visiting i Li, Ding Fan went to see Song Tao.
When Ding Fan arrived at Song Tao's room, the little boy was already sitting on the bed, waiting for him. Upon seeing Ding Fan, he imdiately ran over to his side.
"Dad... are we going to rescue Mom today?" the boy asked, his dark eyes shining with a glint.
Ding Fan gently stroked Song Tao's head. "We'll rescue your mother together."
