If Xu Ke had saved Elder Master Qin, he certainly wouldn't mind the Qin Family expending resources to help him.
But he had saved Elder Master Qin's daughter and grandson... How much weight they actually held in the old man's heart was certainly worth considering.
At this mont, Zhang Qiming said, "Dr. Xu, Miss Qin would like to ask if you could provide her with a phone number so she can express her gratitude in person."
"No problem," Xu Ke replied, sending his number over without hesitation.
Not long after he had given out his number, a call ca from Qin Ya.
"Hello, may I ask if this is Divine Doctor Xu?" Qin Ya's voice was still sowhat weak, a clear sign she hadn't fully recovered.
Xu Ke stood up. "Speaking. Miss Qin, how are you feeling?"
Qin Ya joked, "I'm much better already. I was so worried about Xiao Jie last ti that I didn't let Divine Doctor Xu treat . That's my biggest regret right now."
It was a difficult statent to respond to. Agreeing with her would sound like he was boastfully claiming to be better than the hospital. But disagreeing would be overly self-deprecating.
Xu Ke replied ambiguously, "Miss Qin, you flatter . The hospital's equipnt is far more comprehensive, and Dr. Zhang and his team are all top-notch physicians."
But in Qin Ya's eyes, a doctor who could pull Xiao Jie back from death's door was worthy of any praise.
Qin Ya laughed. "Divine Doctor Xu is too modest! I'm not sure when you'll be free, but I'd like my husband to express his thanks to you in person."
Xu Ke was curious. "May I ask who Miss Qin's husband is?"
"Ouyang Hao. I'm not sure if Divine Doctor Xu is familiar with him."
Xu Ke was taken aback by the familiar surna. He quickly recalled that the Ouyang Family was one of Tianhai's first-rate powers. Unlike the Li Family, which had to depend on the Ye Family, the Ouyang Family's power was already comparable to the Dapeng Comrce Association and growing stronger by the day!
And Ouyang Hao was the current Family Head of the Ouyang Family.
"So, it's Patriarch Ouyang," Xu Ke said with a smile. "I heard Uncle Wu sing his praises quite a while ago!"
"Really?" Qin Ya laughed. "I didn't expect Hao Zi's na to reach Uncle Wu's ears. I rember eting Uncle Wu when I was a child, but it feels like a long ti since I've seen him."
Xu Ke just smiled. Wang Wu had been at the hospital entrance last ti, but it was perfectly understandable that Qin Ya hadn't noticed him, given how worried she was about Xiao Jie. There was no need to point it out.
Afterward, Qin Ya returned to the main topic. "Then, Divine Doctor Xu, are you available? I can't be discharged yet, and it would be too much trouble to ask you to co all the way here. It would be more appropriate for my husband to treat you to a al. Please don't refuse; it's only right that we do so!"
Xu Ke pondered for a mont. "Let's do it in a couple of days, then. I'm afraid I'm not free today." He still had to visit the Zhou Family in the evening and needed the afternoon to rest and clear his mind.
"Alright then!" Qin Ya sounded sowhat disappointed, but then she rembered sothing. "By the way, Dr. Xu, the Zhou Family approached my husband and brother a few days ago. They wanted to inquire about you. They want to invite you to the Zhou residence to see Elder Master Zhou. Are you available anyti soon?"
Xu Ke was startled, then chuckled. "To be honest, Miss Qin, I'm actually on my way to the Zhou Family to see Elder Master Zhou tonight!"
Qin Ya was pleasantly surprised. "What a coincidence! How about this? I'll have my husband act as your driver and take you to the Zhou residence. How does that sound?"
Xu Ke considered for a mont. Duan Chongfeng is already planning to take to the Zhou residence tonight, so it wouldn't be right to ask Ouyang Hao to co over. Besides, having the patriarch of a major family act as your chauffeur during your very first eting is completely inappropriate...
"Miss Qin, there's no need to trouble Patriarch Ouyang. Soone is already taking there," Xu Ke said. "Just tell the Zhou Family that I'll be visiting them directly tonight!"
Hearing this, Qin Ya nodded and didn't insist. "Alright!"
After exchanging a few more pleasantries, they hung up.
Qin Ya imdiately called her husband. Since Divine Doctor Xu had agreed, she naturally wanted her husband to go to the Zhou residence and wait for him! First, it would show her utmost respect for the Divine Doctor. How could a man of his stature not arrive with a proper entourage? Second, it would also let the Zhou Family know that she and Ouyang Hao had played a part in making this happen!
「The Zhou Family.」
"Excellent. So that Divine Doctor will be coming tonight as well? Alright! Thank you for your trouble!"
Zhou Xiuyun hung up the phone with Ouyang Hao and turned to Zhou Yi Yi with a smile. "Yi Yi, not only is the Divine Doctor recomnded by Boss Duan coming tonight, but the Divine Doctor who saved Qin Ya's son will also be coming."
"Really?!" Zhou Yi Yi's face lit up with excitent.
One had cured an Innate Expert of a chronic ailnt that had plagued him for years, while the other had brought soone back from death's door. If both Divine Doctors co to the Zhou residence, doesn't that an there's finally hope for Grandpa's illness? After all, of all the doctors who had visited the Zhou Family, not a single one had managed to cure Duan Chongfeng's stubborn ailnt, nor had any perford the incredible feat of cheating death!
"Of course! Boss Duan and Ouyang Hao told so themselves!" Zhou Xiuyun also smiled. She truly hoped the two Divine Doctors arriving tonight could make a difference. Then her father wouldn't have to endure so much pain anymore!
As Zhou Xiuyun was lost in thought, Zhou Yi Yi suddenly stood up, grabbed her phone, and walked outside. She dialed a number. "Qi Ya, what are you doing?"
「...」
Currently in her room, frantically studying acupuncture manuals, Wang Qiya answered Zhou Yi Yi's call with a touch of annoyance. "What is it?"
There was no need for politeness between best friends. In fact, Wang Qiya was even more casual with Zhou Yi Yi than she was with her own sister, Wong Qifu.
"Qi Ya, is your brother-in-law free tonight?" Zhou Yi Yi asked.
Wang Qiya furrowed her brow. "What's up?"
"Well..." Zhou Yi Yi smiled. "I hope your brother-in-law can co over and take a look at my grandfather's condition. Didn't you tell last ti that he has superb dical skills and even managed to heal Ye Chong's Dantian?"
"But don't you dislike my brother-in-law?" Wang Qiya frowned. Why is Zhou Yi Yi acting so strange?
Hearing Wang Qiya's skepticism, Zhou Yi Yi's expression didn't change. "You're right, I don't like him. But with my grandfather's condition as it is, I have to set aside my prejudice! If he can really cure my grandfather, while I might not start liking him, our Zhou Family will certainly give him his due reward."
At her words, Wang Qiya was taken aback. She had been about to refuse Zhou Yi Yi, but then a new thought occurred to her.
Isn't this a golden opportunity? The Wang Family is in a tight spot right now. If my brother-in-law can cure Elder Master Zhou, the Zhou Family is bound to give him a huge reward, and they might even partner with the Wang Family! When that happens, won't my brother-in-law's reputation within the Wang Family Corporation completely change for the better? And... it might even change Zhou Yi Yi's negative opinion of him.
With this in mind, Wang Qiya chose her words carefully. "Alright, I'll ask my brother-in-law if he has ti."
"Please, you have to convince your brother-in-law to co!"
"Okay, I'll do my best."
With that, Zhou Yi Yi and Wang Qiya hung up.
