Chapter 180: Amazing Medicine
“What a coincidence, Lil Bro Tang! I happen to be in the next town for a survey and I heard that you’ve gotten into some trouble. I’m here to see what’s going on,” Secretary Qian said eagerly as he shook Tang Hao’s hand.
“Is everything settled now?”
“Everything’s settled. Thank you for your concern, Secretary!” Tang Hao said with a smile.
He thought for a while and understood what happened. Commissioner Xia must have told Secretary Qian about it.
“That’s good to hear!” Secretary Qian laughed heartily.
Everyone became even more shocked as they witnessed the scene.
What was the real identity of that kid? Not only did he wield a lot of authority in Provincial City, but he also seemed to be good friends with the district secretary of Westridge District!
The Secretary was very courteous toward the kid. Not only that, he had purposely come over from the next town to meet the kid.
Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin were thoroughly dumbfounded. Especially Mrs. Qin, who found it to be entirely unbelievable. At first glance, she had decided that the kid was useless and completely depended on her daughter.
Now, she had realized that the kid’s background was incredibly powerful.
“This kid is amazing! I was mistaken!” Mr. Qin said while shaking his head.
Old Master Qin was also shocked. When he came to his senses, he realized that Secretary Qian was present at his birthday celebration because of the kid.
He became even more shocked.
Then, he walked over and asked, “Do you know him, Secretary Qian? He is…?”
“Of course I know him!” Secretary Qian said with a smile. “Lil Bro Tang has accomplished a lot at a young age. He’s running a company that’s doing very well now, and he’s also a renowned Divine Doctor.”
“Di… Divine Doctor?” Old Master Qin was surprised.
His instinct told him to laugh. How could a young kid be a divine doctor? Secretary Qian must be exaggerating. Perhaps he was saying that the kid had potential!
“You have to believe me, Old Master Qin. His medical skills are miraculous!” Secretary Qian said.
Old Master Qin was surprised again when he saw that Secretary Qian was being serious.
Then, he turned his head and looked at Tang Hao.
He stared at Tang Hao’s young face and could not believe that he was a divine doctor.
“Old Master Qin, Lil Bro Tang isn’t a normal person. I’ve heard that he inherited his miraculous medical skills from an expert. He had cured a little girl’s leukemia not too long ago, and that incident shocked the entire hospital.”
“What? Leukemia?”
Everyone looked incredulous as they discussed what they heard.
They had heard of leukemia before and knew that it was not easy to be fully cured of the disease.
If somebody else had said it, they might have a hard time believing it. However, it was the Secretary who made that claim, and there was no reason for him to boast.
“Don’t tell me that’s true!”
“Oh my god! That’s incredible! He’s a true Divine Doctor!”
Everyone regarded Tang Hao with admiration.
Old Master Qin looked at Tang Hao wordlessly. Then, as though remembering something, he turned around and shouted. “The medicine! Where’s the medicine?”
Everyone remembered that Tang Hao’s birthday present for the Old Master was a little jade bottle that supposedly contained medicine that could restore one’s health and extend one’s life.
Nobody believed him back then. All of them laughed that it was not medicine, but poison.
They felt incredibly ashamed of themselves now!
Master Qin stood out and said sheepishly, “I threw it away, Dad!”
“What?” Old Master Qin’s eyes opened wide at that instant.
“Well… I thought that the medicine was inedible. There’s no use for inedible medicine anyway, so I threw it,” Master Qin said while scratching the back of his head.
Tang Hao was speechless. That was an incredibly precious pill that no amount of money could buy, yet it was thrown away like trash!
Even Secretary Qian could not believe what he heard. How could someone throw away a present by Divine Doctor Tang?
That was too wasteful!
“Where did you throw it? Go and find it, now!” Old Master Qin roared.
“Right, go look for it!” Everyone from the Qin family said.
Master Qin rushed into the house and rummaged through a garbage bin, then returned with a small jade bottle in his hand.
“Dad, the medicine was in the trash. Are you still going to eat it?” Master Qin hesitated.
“Enough of that nonsense. Give it to me, quick!”
Master Qin was cowed. He cleaned the bottle with his shirt sleeve, then handed the bottle to his father.
Old Master Qin took the bottle and uncorked it.
He smelled an amazing fragrance.
The fragrance had invigorated him. He felt as though he was floating in the sky.
He looked carefully and saw a dark green ball in the bottle.
“This looks amazing!”
Old Master Qin gave it a few more whiffs. He closed his eyes and felt energetic.
“Can I take it now?” Old Master Qin looked at Tang Hao.
Tang Hao nodded.
Old Master Qin tilted the bottle and the pill fell into his palm. Then, he tilted his head upward, tossed the pill into his mouth, and swallowed it.
Everyone opened their eyes wide and looked closely at Old Master Qin. Some people seemed worried, in case there was an accident.
Old Master Qin sat on his chair and waited. Soon, he was bathed in comfortable warmth. Energy surged through his body, and he felt entirely different.
Fifteen minutes later, he propped himself up with his walking stick.
He took a few steps and suddenly looked surprised. With a flick of his wrist, he tossed the walking stick aside and took a big step.
Everyone was shocked when they saw that. Their hearts were in their throats.
However, the ensuing scene left them dumbstruck.
Old Master Qin took several big steps forward. His strides were fast and stable.
“Oh my god! Old Master’s leg is cured!”
“This is a miracle!”
Everyone stood up from their seats and exclaimed in surprise.
Old Master Qin’s leg was injured when he was young, and he needed a walking stick to move around. It was healed in an instant, and there were no other words to describe it other than a miracle.
Old Master Qin looked invigorated. He turned around and laughed heartily. “This is amazing! I feel as though I’m ten years younger!”
Then, he walked in front of Tang Hao and said guiltily. “I am sorry! I’ve underestimated you and your medicine! I didn’t expect that your medical skills are so amazing at such a young age. The Divine Doctor title fits you very well!”
Then, he took Tang Hao’s hands and shook them passionately.
“You don’t have to call me Divine Doctor, Old Master. You can just call me Lil Tang!” Tang Hao said.
“Alright, I’ll call you Lil Tang then! That sounds a lot friendlier!” Old Master Qin laughed.
Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin’s expressions changed when they saw that.
It was obvious that Old Master Qin had recognized the kid’s capabilities.
“I think that kid isn’t too bad at all. You see, he is so well-connected and his medical skills are amazing.” Mr. Qin’s attitude changed. Now, he looked at Tang Hao with appreciation.
“Well…” Mrs. Qin hesitated.
She turned around to look at the boy again, then nodded in silent approval.
