How can you ascend to heaven when you are a star?

Chapter 301 Masters among the people

"Expert Zhang, does my wife need another bottle?" Cui Heng asked as he took out another bottle of life essence, fearing that the medicine would not be effective enough.

For him, as long as he can cure his wife's illness, it doesn't matter how much money he spends.

You can earn money again if you lose it, but once a person is gone, he is really gone.

"No need." Zhang Wen said after hearing this: "Let's observe Madam's condition first. If there is no effect, give her the remaining bottle tomorrow. If there is improvement, you can drink it again in a few days."

"Oh."

Cui Heng nodded to show that he understood.

"!"

However, Wang Deming, who was standing aside, was so angry that he laughed.

He has been responsible for the patient's treatment and health care for five years. During these five years, he has developed countless treatment plans for the patient and used the best medicine in the world, but the results have not been satisfactory.

Now some people say that a bottle of medicine can make the patient's condition better. This is simply a fairy tale and a foolish dream.

If a few bottles of medicine can cure a patient, then what has he been doing for the past five years? And how will those major hospitals and pharmaceutical giants at home and abroad feel about this?

"This 'expert', it seems that you are very confident in the medicine you made." Wang Deming said sarcastically, deliberately emphasizing the word 'expert', as if mocking him.

"Of course." Zhang Wen said.

He didn't believe in himself, he believed in his ancestors and the treasures from the fairyland.

Anything produced in the fairy world must be of high quality.

"Excuse me, what is your medicine made of?" Wang Deming continued to ask.

"If you know it's presumptuous, don't ask. How can you make your exclusive secret recipe public at will?" Zhang Wen said calmly.

"I am the head of the medical team. I need to know the ingredients of every medicine that enters Mrs. Cui's mouth. If anything goes wrong, I can take corresponding countermeasures in the first time." Wang Deming said.

In his opinion, the other party's fear of revealing the ingredients of the medicine was a sign of guilty conscience.

"You are such a responsible and good doctor, but please rest assured, if anything happens to Mrs. Cui, I will help." Zhang Wen said, still looking confident.

The essence of life is the juice squeezed from fairy peaches. Even if it cannot cure the disease, it will definitely not hurt people.

Even if the patient happens to fall ill after drinking the essence of life, he can just feed the fairy peach directly into the patient's mouth, or squeeze the juice without adding water.

If one fairy peach is not enough, then try two. If two are not enough, then try three. He just doesn't believe that he can't cure the patient's illness.

"you?"

Wang Deming sneered, "You're not a doctor, so why would you help? Besides, Mrs. Cui's current condition is the result of a long-term, intertwined attack of multiple diseases, which has led to a weakening of her immune system. There's no effective treatment for this complex condition anywhere in the world, and you can solve it with just a bottle of medicine?"

"You also said that there is no effective treatment in the world, so why don't you give me a chance?" Zhang Wen asked back.

"I'm worried that you will harm the patient's health." Wang Deming said in a deep voice.

"Doctor Wang, I wonder how long you have been the head of Mrs. Cui's medical team?" Zhang Wen asked.

"Five years."

"Oh, then, in the past five years, has Mrs. Cui's health been getting better or worse?"

"Uh……"

Wang Deming's expression froze, as if he had been hit in an acupuncture point. He stood there motionless, his face becoming increasingly ugly, like a cooked pig's liver.

It’s true that during the five years that he was the head of the medical team, Mrs. Cui’s health condition did not improve, but it was not so bad that she was unable to take care of herself.

In other words, it is because of the careful care of the medical team that Mrs. Cui can still live like a normal person, but her immunity is too weak and she is prone to illness.

If it weren't for the efforts of the medical team, Mrs. Cui would have already...

However, he couldn't say these words, because if things got worse, they would get worse. No one would care about his explanation, and no one would know what would have happened if Mrs. Cui hadn't had a medical team in the past five years.

Wang Deming's chest was heaving violently, as if he was holding his breath and couldn't breathe it out.

"Doctor Zhang..."

Zhang Wen looked at the silent middle-aged man and continued, "I know you must have paid a lot in the past five years and thought of many ways to improve Madam Cui's health. But if you could cure Madam Cui, Mr. Cui wouldn't come to me, right?"

“…” Wang Deming gritted his teeth, regretting that he was not Taishang Laojun and could not refine elixirs.

"Doctor Wang, in China, people only resort to folk remedies when modern medicine is powerless. While not all folk remedies are effective, they exist for a reason. Haven't you heard the saying, 'Masters are found among the people.'"

"..."

Wang Deming lowered his head and said nothing.

The other party’s meaning has been expressed very clearly. If you can’t cure it, why don’t you let me cure it?
If he continued to argue with the other party, he would inevitably be suspected of having bad intentions.

Those who know him think he is responsible to his patients, while those who don’t think he is reluctant to give up this high-paying job.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Cui Heng quickly tried to smooth things over.

"Doctor Wang, I invited Expert Zhang. This time it was my fault. I didn't discuss it with you. I promise you, there will never be a next time."

Seeing that his employer had given him a way out, Wang Deming could only nod and no longer insist on his own idea.

All he can do now is to pay attention to the patient's physical condition and avoid accidents.

Cui Heng also smiled. He bent down and looked at his wife lying on the bed and said gently, "Wife, you should rest for a while. I'll go out and talk to Expert Zhang. We'll have dinner together later."

"Yeah." He Qing nodded.

Cui Heng considerately tucked the quilt for his wife and then walked out of the bedroom.

In order to avoid being overheard by his wife, he deliberately went to the first floor, then turned around and looked at Expert Zhang behind him, and asked with concern: "Expert Zhang, you saw it just now, how is my wife?"

The implication is: Can the essence of life cure my wife's illness?
"It's very serious." Zhang Wen said with a serious expression.

If he hadn't taken action, even if the other person didn't have any physical illness, that big devil alone would have made the other person's wife live a life worse than death.

I remember when I first walked in, I heard Doctor Wang say that Boss Cui’s wife had been forgetful recently, and it seemed to be directly related to this confused devil.

Cui Heng's heart skipped a beat when he saw Expert Zhang's expression. He asked nervously, "Expert Zhang, is your Life Essence useless? I heard that Elder Zhou is feeling very healthy after taking it."

"Everyone's physique is different, and the diseases they suffer from are different, so the effects of the Life Essence will also be different, but..."

When Zhang Wen said this, he suddenly changed the subject and his expression softened.

"Mr. Cui, if your wife's condition doesn't improve after drinking two bottles of Life Essence, I will prepare another medicine for her to take. So please rest assured that I will do my best to save your wife."

"Thank you, thank you, Expert Zhang." Cui Heng held the hand of the person in front of him tightly, as if he was holding the only hope, and was reluctant to let go.

"Mr. Cui, since Madam is fine after drinking the Essence of Life, I will leave first. We will contact each other tomorrow." Zhang Wen said.

"Expert Zhang, please finish your meal before leaving." Cui Heng tried to persuade him to stay.

"No, it's getting late, and my girlfriend is waiting for me at home."

"Okay, I'll give it to you."

Cui Heng sent the person out the door, and only looked away after the car drove away, then he hurried into the villa.

"Boom!"

Cui Heng walked quickly upstairs and into the bedroom, but just as he was about to speak, the words got stuck in his throat.

He carefully examined his wife's face. Whether it was an illusion or a psychological effect, he felt that her complexion was much better than before, with a little bit of color. "Honey, Expert Zhang is gone. Tell me the truth, did you feel any discomfort after drinking the Life Essence?" Cui Heng asked with concern.

He was afraid that his wife didn't want to make him worry, so she didn't tell the truth. This kind of situation had happened before, but he didn't know until he saw his wife vomiting.

He blamed himself for a long time at that time.

"No." He Qing shook her head and sat up from the bed. Then she held her husband's hand and said, "I feel good now. Touch my hand, it's warm."

Cui Heng was shocked, and he grabbed his wife's hand with his backhand, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

Because my wife is weak, her hands and feet are always cold all year round, but now they are actually warm.

He touched his wife's feet again. Although they were not as hot as his hands, they were not as cold as before.

Could it be that the essence of life has started to take effect?

This, this is too amazing, right?
"And..." He Qing put his hand on his stomach.

"And what?" Cui Heng asked nervously. Did his wife have a stomachache?

"I want to eat something." He Qing said.

Cui Heng opened his eyes wide in surprise. His wife had been suffering from poor appetite and even anorexia over the years. Even when she was hungry, she was unwilling to eat, otherwise she would not be so thin.

The sun really came out in the west.

"Wife, let's go downstairs to eat."

"Ah."

The two of them came to the restaurant on the first floor, and Cui Heng immediately ordered the nanny to serve the food.

He Qing looked at the food on the table, and suddenly the thought of "eating more" popped up in his mind.

She was shocked by her own idea. You know, at noon, when she saw the table full of food, she felt very resistant.

Even if it is light or vegetarian, I don’t want to eat it.

She couldn't help but pick up the chopsticks, picked up a small piece of egg, put it in her mouth, and chewed it slowly.

In the past, she would feel nauseous and want to vomit, but today she thought it was delicious, as if she was back to the time when she was not sick.

She couldn't help but pick up another piece with her chopsticks, and this time she picked a big piece.

Cui Heng watched quietly from the side, but he was so excited that the chopsticks in his hand almost bent.

My wife usually takes a very long time to chew when she eats, as if the food is so bad that she can't swallow it.

But just now, my wife chewed it a few times and swallowed it. I couldn’t imagine it.

He didn't say anything, nor did he dare to speak, for fear of disturbing his wife's meal.

After more than ten minutes, He Qing put down his chopsticks.

She usually couldn't finish half a bowl of porridge, but today she drank a bowl of porridge, ate a lot of vegetables, and even ate a few pieces of shredded meat for the first time.

The nannies around all showed surprised expressions.

They didn't know the situation, but suddenly they had a bad feeling and started to worry.

Why did Madam eat so much tonight? Could it be a last gasp of energy?

It is said that people who are experiencing terminal lucidity will suddenly have a better mental state, a rosy complexion, and an increased appetite... All of this seems to be in line with the lady's current condition.

Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but feel sad. The Madam was such a good person, but she ended up like this...

Ugh!
Everyone looked at the lady silently. Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.

……

6 o'clock in the morning.

Cui Heng stared at his wife who was still sleeping beside him, feeling extremely happy.

He didn't sleep all night last night, and kept watching his wife, afraid that something might happen and he wouldn't notice it in time.

But it turned out that he was worrying too much.

Not only was his wife fine, but she was also sleeping soundly. She usually woke up at four or five in the morning, but today she was still sleeping at six. If he hadn't seen that his wife's breathing was steady and her hands and feet were warm, he would have really called a doctor.

The birds outside the window are chirping.

Cui Heng had never noticed it before, but today he felt it was particularly noisy.

Another hour passed.

The bird flew away, but Cui Heng was a little uneasy and began to have wild thoughts in his mind.

Why hasn’t my wife woken up yet?

Could he have fainted?

He didn't want to disturb his wife's sleep, but his wife was too abnormal this morning, so after a fierce ideological struggle, he finally decided to wake her up.

"Wife, wife?"

Cui Heng called out softly twice, but his wife beside him didn't move, as if she didn't hear him.

"Wife? Wake up, it's time to get up."

This time, Cui Heng shouted and reached out to gently shake his wife. Not only was his voice getting louder, but he also pushed harder, and his face changed from cautious at the beginning to worried.

"Wife? Wife!"

"Ok?"

A subtle sound suddenly sounded, and He Qing slowly opened his eyes.

Cui Heng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his wife wake up.

He Qing rubbed her dry eyes, her eyes full of confusion, "Husband, what's wrong? Did I have a nightmare again? Sorry to disturb your sleep."

"No, you didn't have a nightmare." Cui Heng quickly shook his head, then asked with concern: "Wife, how are you feeling now? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere? Do you feel dizzy?"

"No, husband, what happened?" He Qing asked in confusion.

"Wife, guess what time it is now?" Cui Heng asked mysteriously.

"4 points?"

"7 point."

"what?"

After hearing this, He Qing came to his senses. He picked up his phone in disbelief and checked it. It was indeed 7 o'clock, or 7:06 to be exact.

"How did I sleep so long?"

He Qing sat up. She hadn't slept for such a long time in more than ten years.

Except for drowsiness, of course.
