Chapter 1697: Chapter 1695: The Unaffordable Price
Listening to Bai Ling’s words, Wang Dadong fell into contemplation.
He certainly wanted to save Li Lu, but Bai Ling had said that if she were to save Li Lu, Bai Ling would lose half her life, so it was naturally impossible for him to ask Bai Ling to act.
Moreover, Bai Ling is a mber of Hell, inherently more important than an employee of the Shiyan Collection.
He would never sacrifice Bai Ling to save Li Lu.
After all, this price had already exceeded his maximum acceptable limit.
"Then, besides you saving her, could traditional Chinese dicine or modern surgical thods be used for treatnt, like removing the Mother Gu from her body?" Wang Dadong thought for a while and asked again.
Given the current advanced state of dicine, perhaps the Mother Gu could be removed without Bai Ling’s intervention.
Bai Ling shook her head and said, "Are you thinking of so potion to kill the Gu insect? That’s impossible. Gu insects are inherently extrely poisonous; there is nothing more toxic than them. Poisons are nourishnt for them."
"What about Western dicine? Is that possible?" Jun Tianzui frowned and asked.
"Western dicine might be possible; after all, Gu insects do have physical dinsions. However, due to the peculiar location of the Gu insect, saving her might require removing her uterus."
Bai Ling’s words left everyone in silence.
What it ans for a woman to have her uterus removed doesn’t need much explanation.
It’s often said that being a mother is a woman’s greatest joy.
If the right to be a mother is stripped away, it’s definitely a huge blow.
However, losing the chance to be a mother is better than dying.
Wang Dadong had already made up his mind; he would suggest that Li Lu undergo surgery. Whether she agreed or not was up to her.
Beauty cos with a price.
Since she initially chose to use the Beauty Gu, she should abide by the rule of never engaging with n. Since she broke the rule, she must be prepared to bear the consequences.
"Alright, Bai Ling, thank you for the information. You may leave now." Wang Dadong nodded at Bai Ling.
Bai Ling asked, "Do you really not need
to act? If you ask, I will definitely act."
Wang Dadong smiled and shook his head, saying, "I’ll think of other ways."
"Then Bai Ling takes her leave." Bai Ling bowed to the three again before softly exiting the room.
"I didn’t think there were such magical things in this world, able to turn an ugly duckling into a beauty. What a pity, though, that after becoming beautiful, you can’t have relations with n. What’s the point of becoming beautiful, then?" Jun Tianzui couldn’t help but sigh.
Won desire beauty primarily to attract n.
If you can’t be with n, then aren’t you just going to be a decorative vase, seen but not touched, for your entire life?
Knowing such side effects, most won would refuse, I believe.
But exceptions exist, such as Li Lu.
"Alright, you all continue monitoring the movents of the Vampire Clan; I’ll head back first." Wang Dadong sighed and then left the secret base.
After leaving the secret base, Wang Dadong imdiately sought out Lin Xiao.
He felt this matter should first be communicated to Lin Xiao.
Upon returning to the Sales Departnt, it had already returned to normal, proving Lin Xiao and Yong Lii’s work efficiency was indeed high.
No one was gossiping; everyone was engrossed in their work earnestly.
"You an Li Lu has to choose between having her uterus removed or waiting to die?" After hearing Wang Dadong’s words, Lin Xiao’s expression changed slightly, her eyes filled with intense disappointnt.
Li Lu, after all, was the departnt’s most outstanding salesperson; such news naturally ant she couldn’t be in a good mood.
"As of now, it seems like the only option." Wang Dadong nodded.
Lin Xiao fell silent for a mont before looking at Wang Dadong with imploring eyes, saying, "Wang Dadong, I believe you might have another way to save her, right? Please don’t take away her ability to be a mother."
Seeing Lin Xiao’s pleading eyes, Wang Dadong felt a little soft, but he still shook his head and said, "I can save her, but it requires a great sacrifice. Although she’s an excellent salesperson, Shiyan Group has never lacked talent."
To save a vain and undisciplined woman at the cost of half of Bai Ling’s life? Wang Dadong was not that rciful.
The root cause was Li Lu’s vanity, wanting to be beautiful, so she used the Beauty Gu. But she couldn’t resist temptation, leading to this tragic outco.
No one else is to bla.
Lin Xiao fell silent once more. She understood Wang Dadong’s capabilities; if he said it was a significant sacrifice, then it must be truly substantial.
Yet, she really didn’t want Li Lu to lose the ability to be a mother.
For a woman, that’s truly too cruel.
"Wang Dadong, I know what I’m saying might be unreasonable, but I genuinely don’t want Li Lu to be so miserable. Could you tell
what it costs to save her, and if possible, I’m willing to pay it?" Lin Xiao said through gritted teeth.
"Lin Xiao, I advise you not to consider this matter further. The significant cost I’m referring to is one that you can’t afford." Wang Dadong replied softly.
Although Bai Ling hasn’t been with Hell for long, her unique abilities have already made her an A-level mber, otherwise, she wouldn’t have been eligible to see Wang Dadong today.
Even within Hell, A-level mbers are few; cultivating one requires considerable investnt.
Such costs are generally calculated in billions.
Thus, Bai Ling’s half life is worth at least tens of millions.
Lin Xiao’s family may be well-off, but asking her to produce tens of millions is clearly beyond her ans.
Lin Xiao also knew she was dreaming; what cost could she pay?
Money? Wang Dadong is one of Shiyan Group’s major shareholders; would he lack money?
Even if Wang Dadong accepted money, it surely would be an unaffordable figure for her, so Wang Dadong stated it was a cost she couldn’t cover.
The underlying issue was that Li Lu didn’t hold significant importance to Wang Dadong, so there was no need for Bai Ling to intervene in saving her.
"There really isn’t another way..." Lin Xiao’s expression grew even gloomier.
She sincerely wished to help Li Lu.
Though Li Lu is beautiful, her capabilities are indeed strong, and more importantly, she is hardworking, unlike other girls who rely on their looks and believe everyone should indulge them.
Although most of her accomplishnts, like closing that eighty million deal, are partly due to her attractiveness, her capabilities are undeniable.
Moreover, Li Lu is humble, unlike so female employees who are conceited and look down on others due to their perceived superiority.
From a work perspective, Li Lu is an exceptional employee.
Yet, exceptional as she is, Lin Xiao really wanted to help her, but she couldn’t afford the cost.
"Dadao, can you do
a favor?" Lin Xiao lifted her head, sowhat downcast, looking towards Wang Dadong.
