Chapter 250: Phoenix Manor
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Before leaving, Xu Fan casually took Ben Ben with him, just in case Xu Yixue came back early and saw this silly dog that had previously frightened her and sprained her ankle, she might scream out loud.
Driving his own Audi S7, Xu Fan, with Tongtong and Ben Ben, headed straight for Phoenix Manor in the southern part of the city.
This manor had a bit of an impression on Xu Fan’s memory as well; it was said that its predecessor was built by a prince during the Ming Dynasty, and it had a history of at least several hundred years.
Over the past few decades, it had undergone several major renovations and was a very famous private estate in Zhonghai City.
Travelling at high speed, they arrived at the entrance of Phoenix Manor in just over forty minutes.
The manor sounded a bit like a tourist attraction mainly because it covered a very large area, a whole dozen acres; possessing such a vast property in Zhonghai City indicated that the owner of the manor was extraordinarily wealthy.
Just as Xu Fan stopped his car at the entrance of Phoenix Manor, he saw a luxurious Rolls-Royce Phantom parked at the manor’s gate.
After the door to the Rolls-Royce opened, three people got out.
The first person was a middle-aged man; the second, an elderly man dressed in a Sun Yat-sen suit was none other than Xu Fan’s old acquaintance, the owner of Zhi Shen Tang, Lin Yaoshi.
The third person was a girl in her early twenties, youthful and beautiful.
This girl wore a white T-shirt with denim shorts, displaying her fair and slender legs, her hair tied back in a ponytail, her face bare without any makeup, totally natural.
Despite wearing no makeup, the girl was very pretty; with impeccable, white skin and delicate features, she looked just as good as the heavily made-up celebrities, and she also had a fresh and natural aura.
Xu Fan glanced at her briefly, her countenance somewhat resembled Elder Lin’s, as if she were Elder Lin’s descendant.
Seeing that Elder Lin and his party had all gotten out of their car, Xu Fan didn’t hesitate any longer, opened the door, and got out of the Audi.
“Elder Lin, I just got to the entrance of the manor when you arrived. It seems your speed isn’t slow either,” Xu Fan said with a slight smile to Lin Yaoshi as he greeted him.
On the road Xu Fan drove quite fast, but it was a surprise that Lin Yaoshi, whose Zhi Shen Tang was even further away, managed to arrive so quickly.
“With a patient waiting for treatment, I was really anxious, so of course, I had to hurry over. Your quick arrival shows that you also care deeply for the patient,” said Elder Lin to Xu Fan, politely holding his fists in greeting.
“Elder Lin, could he be the extraordinary man you mentioned?” The middle-aged man beside Elder Lin asked, somewhat puzzled by the elder’s comment.
His name was Sun Lihua, the son of the patient. It was he who had found out that the patient’s cold had worsened today. That’s why he hurried to Zhi Shen Tang to ask Elder Lin for help.
At that time, Elder Lin rushed out saying he needed to find a highly skilled “miraculous doctor” to treat his father, but what he didn’t expect was for Elder Lin to bring in a young man in his twenties.
Sun Lihua gave Xu Fan a once-over; although Xu Fan looked sharp, he did not seem like someone who could treat illnesses. Medical skills rely on time to develop. Even Yan Country’s medical authority, Lin Yaoshi, only emerged as a prominent figure in Yan Country’s medical circles after the age of forty. A twenty-five or twenty-six-year-old person may not have even completed their master’s degree in medical school, not to mention having set foot in an operating room, so boasting of being a miraculous doctor was a bold claim.
In response to Sun Lihua’s doubts, Elder Lin did not take it to heart, but laughed out loud, “The remarkable individual I’ve found for your father is none other than young Master Xu Fan. With him coming over, there’s absolute hope for your father’s illness.”
“Elder Lin flatters me. Whether there is hope or not can only be discussed after seeing the patient,” Xu Fan said with a slight smile, not committing fully.
Although the diseases of this world were no trouble for Xu Fan, he did not heal someone just because he could.
If Xu Fan was not pleased, no amount of money would tempt him, even if it was offered.
Xu Fan was a sovereign figure who dominated a region in the Cultivation World, long accustomed to life and death. The compassion of a Bodhisattva to save the suffering and the injured had nothing to do with Xu Fan.
Xu Fan would only save those he wanted to spend the effort on; if he did not take to a patient, no matter how severe their illness, Xu Fan had no obligation to save them.
“He’s so young, is there really no issue?” Sun Lihua asked Elder Lin with some doubts.
“Li Hua, I’ve gone to the trouble of inviting young Master Xu here because of the decades-long brotherhood between your father and me. You can question me, but do not doubt him, otherwise, I can leave right now with young Master Xu!” The moment Elder Lin heard that Sun Lihua still harbored doubts about Xu Fan, he became unhappy.
Even though Xu Fan indeed looked too young at first glance, there was absolutely no question about his identity with Elder Lin—a grand master in the medical circle of Yan Country—vouching for him.
Moreover, Sun Lihua’s father was now in a very dangerous state, and it was imperative to try all possibilities. If Xu Fan was dissatisfied with his attitude, then his father’s illness might truly become incurable.
“Elder Lin, since I promised you that I would come to treat your old friend, I will definitely keep my word. But if his family members are worried about me, then it is not necessary for me to go,” Xu Fan said slowly.
“No way, young Master Xu, I know you are a good person. Li Hua is just worried about his father, which is understandable due to filial piety. I beg of you to be patient,” Elder Lin said earnestly to Xu Fan.
“Alright. Let’s first go and see the situation with the patient,” Xu Fan said, nodding in understanding after hearing Elder Lin’s words.
“Li Hua, lead the way. In the whole Yan Country, if anyone can save your father, it’s the divine Doctor Xu here,” Elder Lin said sternly, casting a sideways glance at Sun Lihua.
“Yes, yes, this way please, Divine Doctor Xu. My father has been waiting for you for a long time,” Sun Lihua hurriedly gestured for Xu Fan to follow, his expression humble.
Even though Xu Fan appeared very young, the greatly esteemed Elder Lin had emphasized Xu Fan’s capabilities several times. Even if he was usually prideful, he no longer dared to harbor the slightest bit of contempt for Xu Fan.
Xu Fan ignored him and reached out to open the car door, carrying the little princess, Tongtong, out of the car and holding her securely in his arms.
Ben Ben also seized the opportunity when the door was opened, jumping out of the car in a flash.
“Wow, what an adorable little cutie!” The young girl beside Elder Lin immediately had stars in her eyes upon seeing Tongtong.
Tongtong looked like a beautifully crafted porcelain doll, radiating adorableness from head to toe. One glance was all it took for the girl to feel an irresistible urge to embrace her.
“Woof Woof… Am I not cute too…” Ben Ben, wagging his tail, barked discontentedly from the side.
