Chapter 582: Qian’s Despair and Zhang’s Demands
When the bodyguard saw the situation, he quickly helped him up and moved him to the sofa. From start to finish, Bai Lexin did not look at him.
Zhang Dadan saw that Bai Lexin had stopped intervening, so he continued to press on. “Master Qian, my bank card number, you must know it, and obediently deposit one million US dollars.”
“Of course, this million is just the rescue fee, your sickness is a very rare stubborn disease, the chances of recurrence are extremely high!”
Recurrence? Qian Xinxin’s heart sank into a deep pool of cold despair upon hearing this, panicking.
The uncontrolled laughter just now was so painful that if it happened again, dying might be better.
Even using chopsticks for emergency treatment is very embarrassing and unacceptable. Falling ill in front of so many prominent people at a banquet, isn’t it a laughingstock?
Qian Xinxin panicked, and couldn’t help but stare at Zhang Bo’er. His eyes were fervent, seemingly looking at a shining golden peak and a silver peak.
Indifferent, Zhang Dun mercilessly scolded, “What are you looking at? Don’t hurry up and exchange money for me!”
If Qian Xinxin previously dared not respond, he now felt resentment but showed an ingratiating demeanor.
“Zhang Da… Doctor Zhang Shen, you have superb medical skills, surely there is a way to cure my disease, right? Qian Xinxin pleaded pathetically.
His ingratiating manners made the bodyguard beside him stare with doubt. He even rubbed his eyes and looked at Qian Xinxin again. Is this really his eldest, youngest brother?
In Qian Xinxin’s eager anticipation, Zhang Dadan calmly replied, “Cure completely? As I said, you have an extremely rare incurable disease.”
Qian Xinxin’s heart turned upside down as if struck by a bolt of blue.
No cure? Could it relapse at any moment, causing him to laugh uncontrollably again? If that’s the case, how could he show himself again?
“Doctor Zhang Shen, surely you have a way, right? You are the Miracle Doctor!” Qian Xinxin begged.
Although Zhang Dadan had no sympathy for him, he pretended to reminisce and said, “I will go back and check some medical books, perhaps I can find a way to cure it!”
Seeing a glimmer of hope, Qian Xinxin cried with joy, “You…you must…we must carefully check those medical books.”
Before he finished sobbing, Zhang Dadan rudely interrupted, “Getting those medical books is also a tough task.”
Qian Xinxin wasn’t very foolish, though he had some issues. He certainly understood that Zhang Dadan was asking for money.
But now, Zhang Dadan was his only hope. How could he be stingy with some money?
“Say…sure! Doctor Zhang Shen, tell me a few words. I’ll have someone exchange money right away!” Qian Xinxin said eagerly.
Zhang Da hesitated and proud. “Give me 1.6 million plus the current 1 million!”
One million six hundred thousand? Meaning he spent sixty thousand on those medical books? It’s not just any western medicine!
However, although Qian Xinxin felt a bit surprised, he quickly agreed, “One million six hundred thousand is six million!”
Seeing him so straightforward, Zhang Dadan could no longer conceal his intentions, bluntly stating, “Is it possible for the Dragon Phoenix Building across the street to go bankrupt?”
Qian Xinxin’s investment in the Dragon Phoenix Building was initially intended to boldly confront Zhang and defeat Jiji. Now his life was in Zhang Dadan’s hands. How dare he add more obstacles for others?
“Bankrupt…bankrupt…I will have Li Tianlai clear his belongings right away.” Qian Xinxin made the decisive decision.
Zhang Dadan’s reason for killing the Dragon Phoenix Tower wasn’t because he feared competing with it, but because he couldn’t be bothered to deal with more details.
“Don’t mention this to Li Tianlai. Don’t hesitate, wait until I tell you!” Zhang Dadan ordered.
Qian Xinxin entrusted his security to Zhang and dared not defy his demands.
“Doctor Zhang Shen, rest assured, I will not tell him first!” Qian Xinxin swore to Heaven and vowed.
He was as terrified and ungrateful as he could sit aside watching the lively white laughter.
Upon hearing the scary laughter, Qian Xinxin looked around and saw Bai Jie laughing like him. He couldn’t help but smile, feeling comforted.
“Doctor Zhang Shen, Bai Jie, she’s laughing madly too, could she have such a chronic disease?” Qian Xinxin asked anxiously.
Without waiting for Zhang Dadan’s response, Bai Lexin also eagerly wanted to explore the path: “Bai Jie…why are you laughing?”
Seeing people suspecting her illness, Bai Jie stared dumbly at herself, then became more amused, struggling to contain herself.
“Master…Grandpa, I’m not…haha…I’m fine…” Bai Jie refused to laugh and tried to comfort them.
But her laughter made the innocent Bai Lexin really worried. She boldly shouted at Zhang Da, “Dadan, come and see what’s wrong with her?”
As the instigator, Zhang Dadan naturally knew that Bai Jie wasn’t sick, just simply amused.
Zhang laughed lightly while sternly sobbing, “Bai Jie, that’s enough! Stop it!”
Seeing this, Bai Jie gently patted her cheeks, laughing, “Haha…okay, I won’t laugh! I’m not sick!”
Realizing it was Qian Xinxin’s misunderstanding, must have felt somewhat awkward and annoyed. Why would he mistake this sick bitch for being ill?
To alleviate the awkwardness, Qian Xinxin quickly changed the topic, “Zhang…Doctor Zhang Shen, my illness burdens you!”
“Say…sure! As long as the money is in place, even if it’s a dog, I’ll spare no effort to cure it.” Zhang Dadan pointed out harshly.
Though Qian Xinxin knew he was being humiliated, he dared not offend him further, smiled, and remained silent.
Seeing him lower his head in silence as if contemplating something, Zhang Dadan called out to Bai Lexin once more:
“Mr. Bai, since your grandparents are here, I can’t just ignore you. I’ll have someone prepare some nice dishes right away!”
Bai Lexin grumbled, pulling down his old face, “Mr. White? Or just call Grandpa like Bai Jie.”
Grandpa? Qian Xinxin leaned on the sofa, seeing Zhang Dadan and Bai Lexin’s harmonious relationship, feeling more resentful.
“What are you waiting for? Hurry and call someone to transfer money to Doctor Zhang Shen.” Qian Xinxin angrily ordered the bodyguard.
When Bai Lexin heard his angry roar, he felt hanging Qian Xinxin aside was inappropriate.
“Qian boy, would you like to come over?” Borrow some bold wine and thank him for saving your life!” Bai Lexin suggested.
Initially provoked, without getting any money, Qian Xinxin has also become a puppet with strings. His humiliation and resentment were beyond words.
“Grandpa Bai, I’ll come over. Coming…” Qian Xinxin replied hoarsely, attempting to stand.
But after the ordeal, he had already exhausted too much energy. His fingers ached, sweating profusely, even lacking the strength to stand.
He merely wanted to curse the bodyguard but boldly heard Zhang Dadan saying, “Forget it! Can he hold a glass now? His hands are swollen like pig trotters!”
Damn it! Why are my hands swollen? Wasn’t it just the chopsticks? Are you particularly mocking me?
If it weren’t for saving your son, I would have had you chopped and fed to the dogs!
