"Old Master Qin? ..." Fang Luo was taken aback upon seeing Old Master Qin. He hadn't expected Old Master Qin to co here so late.
Clearly, Old Master Qin did not like Fang Luo, who only knew to indulge in eating, drinking, and rrymaking. He strode forward to the crowd.
"Old Master Qin, your timing is perfect. Manshu, this child, won't listen to reason. She insists on degrading her own status, insists on being with this pauper... Old Master Qin, our Qin family's status in Dancheng, what kind of identity we have--if others found out that Manshu is with this pauper, then, from now on, the whole of Dancheng would laugh at us," Fang Luo said, making a pained and exasperated gesture. "No matter what, I am Manshu's elder. Seeing the child do foolish things, I must step in and manage."
After listening to Fang Luo, Old Master Qin looked at Qin Manshu, who was beside him.
At that mont, Qin Manshu's cheeks couldn't help but blush. She hadn't even brought up her relationship with Ding Fan with her grandfather.
"Manshu, is what Fang Luo said true?" Old Master Qin asked Qin Manshu.
Qin Manshu glanced at Ding Fan beside her and then, calming her emotions, said firmly, "Yes."
"Old Master Qin, you see, Manshu has admitted it herself. Look at that kid, he looks like a total pauper, how could he possibly be with Manshu." Fang Luo added from the side.
Old Master Qin glanced at Fang Luo, who was talking a mile a minute. "A pauper, you say this kid is a pauper?" After saying that, Old Master Qin pointed at Ding Fan beside him.
Fang Luo stalled and then nodded, saying, "Old Master Qin, this kid obviously looks destitute. If he's not a pauper, what is he..."
Old Master Qin humphed lightly. "Well then, let enlighten you to who this 'pauper' is... This 'pauper' is the inventor of the ultimate version of the Calming Pill, the current chairman of Huaxia Group, and even now, he isn't short of wealth—it must be at least a few tens of billions... And also, this gentleman is a Major in the 3567 Regint of Huaxia Country, just yesterday, he was promoted to Vice President of the Huaxia Chinese dicine Association... This pauper is called Ding Fan!"
Having said this, Old Master Qin glanced at Fang Luo. "What do you think of this pauper now?"
Fang Luo, after hearing Old Master Qin's words, had his mouth agape.
The ultimate version of the Calming Pill was the talk of the town, now exceptionally hot, and there was no way Fang Luo could be unaware of it.
And then there's the Huaxia Group, which is dual-listed both dostically and internationally. Fang Luo found it hard to believe that this young man before him could be the chairman of such a massive company.
And this kid is also a Major in the 3567 Regint! And the Vice President of the Chinese dicine Association…
Any one of these titles alone would warrant great respect, not to ntion they were all converged upon the sa person.
Fang Luo's head dipped in that mont.
It was laughable that he had just been calling this man a pauper.
To think, in the eyes of this man, he himself must seem like a sorry excuse for a pauper!
"Ding Fan? Mr. Ding, is that you?" Just at that mont, Prince William, who had been standing aside, looked at Ding Fan with a stunned expression, examining him from head to toe.
Now that things had co to this, Ding Fan saw no need to conceal his identity; he nodded slightly. "I am Ding Fan."
"This is wonderful. It's just as you say, 'No pain, no gain'…" William said, clapping his hands.
Everyone looked at William, puzzled.
At that ti, William explained, "I ca to Huaxia Country specifically to find a God Doctor to treat my mother in the M-character country. As long as you can go, I'm willing to pay any amount!"
The Queen of M-character country had suffered a stroke years ago and had been bedridden ever since, maintained only by dication.
But not long ago, it was said that there was a God Doctor in Huaxia who could treat such an illness, and William, with a try-and-see attitude, ca to Huaxia Country.
William had visited many famous doctors in the anti, but none were confident in treating the Queen's illness.
Just when William thought this trip would be in vain, he heard about Ding Fan single-handedly defeating Korean dicine in three rounds just yesterday.
While William was actively arranging to contact Ding Fan, he had not expected to encounter Ding Fan here.
"Mr. Ding Fan, as long as you can cure a stroke, we are prepared to pay any amount…" William said earnestly.
After mulling it over, Ding Fan shook his head slightly.
Seeing Ding Fan shake his head, William was montarily stunned. "Could it be that even God Doctor Ding is helpless against a stroke?"
Ding Fan spoke indifferently. "A stroke doesn't count as a serious illness. It's just that I don't have much ti recently, I have so personal matters to attend to."
What Ding Fan said was the truth; he had already planned to leave for Haijiao early the next morning.
A stroke doesn't count as a serious illness?! William looked at him as if seeing a savior, and then he knelt down before Ding Fan with a thud. William understood the ceremonial customs of Huaxia Country from his early years.
Kneeling is the greatest sign of respect, and now, to save his mother, William cast aside all else and directly perford a grand kowtow to Ding Fan.
"God Doctor Ding, as long as you cure my Queen's illness, from now on, you will be a person of great honor in my M-character country. Whatever you need in the future, we are willing to lend our full support!" William said sincerely.
Fang Luo, witnessing this scene, almost had his eyes pop out of their sockets.
After all, Prince William was a mber of the royal family and held the prestigious title of prince.
Fang Luo had once thought that by marrying off Prince William and Qin Manshu, he would have a royal backer, and he would then be able to strut around with authority.
But what Fang Luo utterly hadn't expected was that the prince at this mont was asking a favor from the so-called pauper he had ntioned, even going so far as to perform a grand kowtow.
Fang Luo turned his gaze to Ding Fan.
Not many can receive such regard from Old Master Qin, but Ding Fan is one of them. Even fewer people can make a prince of the Mi Nation kneel before them. And here too, there's Ding Fan...
It seems this Ding Fan is indeed not ordinary...
Ding Fan looked at William Muzi. At this ti, William Muzi had a face full of sincerity from Yu City.
Ding Fan was indeed moved by Prince William's sincerity.
If William had commanded him in the tone of a prince, Ding Fan would have definitely refused, but now, the prince was kneeling before him to save his own mother. Touched by this filial piety, Ding Fan was sowhat moved.
"Alright, I'll take care of your mother's illness," said Ding Fan indifferently. "You may rise."
Upon hearing Ding Fan's words, William showed joy. "Thank you, Doctor, thank you, Doctor..."
Seeing that William had no intention of standing up, Ding Fan lightly used so True Qi and lifted the kneeling William to his feet.
After this move, William's confidence in Ding Fan grew even stronger.
"Mr. Ding, I have a check here. You may fill in any amount you wish," said William as he hastily produced a check and respectfully handed it to Ding Fan.
Fang Luo, who was standing by, watched with wide eyes, almost drooling at the thought of filling in a check with any amount...
The thought alone was already quite tempting!
Ding Fan glanced at the check, then returned it to William. "There's no rush to discuss paynt until your mother's illness is cured."
Prince William was startled; he had not expected Ding Fan to refuse his check.
Ding Fan then took out a Pill and swiftly jotted down so prescriptions on a piece of paper before handing them to William together.
"A minor illness like this can be treated by my disciple. Just have my disciple follow these instructions, and I believe it won't take half a month for your mother to make a complete recovery," Ding Fan said.
The disciple Ding Fan was referring to was none other than Ning Luoxi.
Ning Luoxi had studied "Mystery True dicine" with Ding Fan, and during her recent visits, Ding Fan had further guided her.
Ning Luoxi was extrely intelligent, and her dical skills had also beco very advanced. Ding Fan was thinking of using this opportunity to help Ning Luoxi make a na for herself.
To know, how many Chinese dicine practitioners in the world could treat an empress? Once the empress's illness is cured, Ning Luoxi's fa would resound throughout the world.
Ding Fan was building montum for Ning Luoxi and for himself!
As for worrying whether Ning Luoxi would be unable to cure the empress's illness?
Ding Fan had no doubt about that. His Pill was a third-grade Foundation Building Pill, which could restore most of the empress's health; coupled with so techniques, there's no reason it wouldn't work.
At this mont, William had no doubts as he accepted the Pill and paper from Ding Fan.
Just yesterday, Ding Fan single-handedly defeated three Korean dicine practitioners in a row. Among them was a Korean dicine practitioner nad Che ini, who served as a royal physician in the Mi Nation's palace.
Such a formidable person had been defeated by Ding Fan, so William had no doubts about Ding Fan's dical skills.
"This is my girlfriend. Prince, please be more cautious in your actions in the future," Ding Fan said indifferently to William.
******** It was only normal, Ding Fan wasn't petty enough to be angry with William, and in saying this, he was also telling William, and everyone else, that Qin Manshu was his woman, so others should stop coveting her...
"There were misunderstandings in the past; I hope Doctor Ding won't hold it against ," said William as he hastily discarded the bouquet he was holding into a nearby wastebasket.
Ding Fan smiled faintly. "Then, Mr. William, let's part ways here for now. Tomorrow, I will arrange for my disciple to contact you."
William nodded, then took his leave. With William gone, Fang Luo also had no face to stay any longer and dejectedly followed him out.
"Old Master Qin, coming to find so late must an there's sothing you need," Ding Fan said to Old Master Qin with a smile.
Ding Fan let William leave because he could tell that Old Master Qin had sothing to discuss with him.
If Old Master Qin didn't have urgent business with him, there was no need for the rush to co here.
"I knew I couldn't hide anything from you," Old Master Qin said with a forced smile.
Ding Fan fell silent, simply listening.
Old Master Qin then continued, "Ding Fan, I want to ask you to save soone for ..."
Ding Fan was taken aback.
Knowing that in Huaxia Country, the Qin family was one of the Four Great Families, it was surprising that Old Master Qin needed his help to save soone.
"Please elaborate, Old Master Qin," Ding Fan said.
Old Master Qin sighed softly, then said, "My younger brother is currently in grave danger. I hope you can lend your aid."
Old Master Qin's brother?
Ding Fan was startled. He had never heard Old Master Qin ntion this before.
Qin Manshu, too, was surprised; she had never heard about Old Master Qin having a brother.
"Don't worry, Old Master Qin. Tell more details. As long as it's within my power, I will certainly offer my help..." Ding Fan said.
