Chapter 35: Chapter 35 Her Majesty the Empress Plays Games
Editor: Atlas Studios
Hepburn was the pride of the medical world, the youngest ever Nobel laureate in Physiology or Medicine!
Celebrated internationally!
He had created countless medical miracles and treated numerous national leaders!
It could be said that Hepburn was the very pinnacle of today’s medical field, without peer!
But he was a very proud man, as geniuses should rightly be temperamental.
Many people were willing to spend a fortune just to have him perform surgery, yet they couldn’t even get a glimpse of him.
Moreover, he was indifferent to fame and fortune, having retired from the medical field at the age of twenty-seven to research some new drug, it was said.
From then on, he vanished without a trace.
Unexpectedly, Lu Hualiang managed to invite him to perform surgery on Xia Weibao!
If Hepburn personally took on the case, then Xia Weibao’s injuries, even if they couldn’t be fully healed, could at least be 70 to 80 percent better.
Just thinking about Xia Weibao possibly escaping disaster made Xiang Minhai’s face look very ugly.
But thinking of Hepburn personally coming to The First Hospital, he was so excited that he shook all over.
Every profession has its idols, and Hepburn, who stood at the summit of medicine at a young age, was undoubtedly the idol of all doctors!
“Quick, go greet him!”
Xiang Minhai was as excited as if he was on a booster shot.
He might as well take the opportunity to check on his good-for-nothing son, to see if, after witnessing Xia Weibao’s plight for three days, he’d given up on traditional Chinese medicine.
In the VIP ward, Xia Weibao was lying on the hospital bed, bored out of her mind.
So boring.
After lying there for three days, she felt almost moldy.
On the sofa, Xiang Chu was half-kneeling in front of the coffee table, studying the prescription with a reverence that surpassed even that of worshiping a sacred edict.
Suddenly, he pulled out a tissue, excitedly wiped his drool away, and threw the tissue in the bin.
Xia Weibao silent shifted her gaze away from the trash can piled high with waste paper.
She had seen people drool over roast chicken but never someone drool over a prescription, and for three days at that…
The more Xiang Chu looked at it, the more he felt that Xia Weibao was the reincarnation of a legendary healer, and that if he didn’t take her as his master, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
So he suddenly threw himself in front of the bed, “Master, please take me as your disciple.”
Xia Weibao’s eyes fell on her fair arm; it wasn’t burned because she happened to be holding onto Lu Hualiang at the time.
At that moment, on her arm as smooth as jade, two paws covered in saliva were grabbing onto her.
Xia Weibao felt a chill, “Let go!”
Could this get any more disgusting!
“I won’t, unless Master agrees to take me as a disciple, I won’t let go!”
Seeing that glistening liquid made Xia Weibao’s scalp tingle, and with a flick of her right hand, a silver needle flew out, directly hitting Xiang Chu’s acupressure point.
The silver needle was something she had Xiang Chu prepare; how could she be a divine healer without silver needles.
Having been pricked by the needle, Xiang Chu was expected to be angry, but instead, he became even more excited.
Trembling as if he had contracted epilepsy!
Wow!
My master has pricked me with a needle, my master’s acupuncture is so good.
“Master, teach me medicine, please. I’ll do anything, be it heavy labor or menial work.”
Xia Weibao, “…”
This kid was beyond saving.
“I’m not taking any disciples.”
She had her principles and would not lightly take a disciple, not even if it were the King of Heaven coming to be her pupil – there was no room for negotiation!
Xiang Chu instantly became like an abandoned little puppy, his head drooping and his eyes tearful, looking pitiful beyond words.
Xia Weibao couldn’t be bothered with him, “I’m so bored; isn’t there something to amuse myself with?”
“Master, why don’t you play a game?”
“A game?”
“Yes.”
Xiang Chu took out his phone, opened up the game he was recently playing, Honor of Kings, “I find it quite fun, but I don’t know if Master would like to play.”
