“All of you stay outside and wait. Without my order, no one is allowed to enter.”
With that, Man Baitao prepared to enter the clinic.
Han Baitao raised his right foot and suddenly pulled it back.
“Remember, even if the world is collapsing inside, you are not allowed to enter without my permission.”
After instructing his bodyguards, Han Baitao gave his men a look.
As Han Baitao entered the shop, the bodyguards outside immediately formed a human wall.
They blocked all the passersby who wanted to follow them in.
Inside the shop, Chen Yu sat back down on his chair and reached out to shake off the water droplets on the floor.
Han Baitao’s eyes widened massively when he saw the water droplets that fell from Chen Yu’s fingers.
The water droplet contained dense spiritual energy.
Chen Yu actually threw them onto the ground without any heartache.
It was simply a waste of natural resources.
If he could taste it…
Han Baitao was highly excited.
He didn’t come to the wrong place; his fate is saved!
“Mister grandpa, why is your face so red?”
“Are you having a heart attack?”
Zhou Kexin poked her head out of the kitchen when she heard someone coming in and saw Han Baitao’s flushed red face as if he couldn’t breathe. “Grandpa? Hahaha.”
Shaking his head, Chen Yu teased, “You should call him big brother.”
“What? Big brother?”
Zhou Kexin was shocked.
The old man in front of her looked even older than her grandfather. He was probably in his eighties, if not ninety.
Yet, Chen Yu asked her to call him ’big brother’.
What kind of magical title was this?
“Senior, you’re indeed an extraordinary expert. Nothing can hide from your eyes.”
Han Baitao cast aside all other thoughts.
He bowed respectfully toward Chen Yu.
“Mister… how old are you?”
Chen Yu and the old man’s conversation sounded all sorts of mysterious.
She was told she shouldn’t call the old man ‘grandfather’, but’ big brother’.
Not only did the old man not get angry, but he affirmed Chen Yu’s words.
“I am Han Baitao, 39 years old this year.”
“Cough, cough, cough!!!”
Zhou Kexin almost choked to death.
39?
Or was it 93?
“Senior’s predictions are divine. I believe you’ve already seen through my intentions?”
Han Baitao asked respectfully.
“Of course.” Nodding, Chen Yu said, “You’ve prepared half of your assets to extend your life. You’re indeed sincere. However…”
“Senior,” Han Baitao interjected before Chen Yu could finish speaking. “If Senior feels that I’m not sincere enough, I’m willing to take out 80% of my assets.”
“Senior, please be merciful and help me extend my life.”
Han Baitao knelt on the ground.
“Mr. Han, please get up first,” Zhou Kexin said.
“Dr. Chen doesn’t like someone kowtowing. The more you do this, the more unhappy Doctor Chen will be.”
She thought of Han Baitao’s true age and how they were discussing extending his life.
Zhou Kexin guessed that Han Baitao was suffering from a rare aging disease.
Otherwise, why would Han Baitao, who was not even forty yet, look so old?
Han Baitao was unmoved as he looked at Chen Yu eagerly.
“Get up.”
Waving his hand, Chen Yu said, “Nurse Zhou is right. I hate it when people kowtow to me. If you have anything to say, just stand up and say it.”
Han Baitao didn’t dare to be negligent and slowly stood up from the ground.
“As a 200-billion-dollar tycoon, taking out 100 billion to extend my life is, as I said just now, to show my sincerity.”
“However, some things can’t be resolved just by being sincere.”
Zhou Kexin’s heart raced when she heard the figure of 200 billion.
She didn’t expect Han Baitao to be so rich.
In order to extend his life, he was willing to give Chen Yu 100 billion!
“Dr. Chen, is he really willing to give you that much money?”
Zhou Kexin couldn’t even count how many zeros there were in 100 billion.
A golden light shone in her eyes as she looked at Chen Yu, who was about to become a billionaire.
“He’ll give it to me,” Chen Yu said with a faint smile. “But I don’t have the ability to take it.”
“Why?”
Zhou Kexin was confused.
All kinds of difficult and miscellaneous illnesses were nothing more than a child’s play to him.
Even if someone only had one breath left, Chen Yu could still save them.
Not long ago, a viewer overseas consulted with Chen Yu.
His grandfather was framed, and he tried to commit suicide to prove his innocence.
At that time, it was Zhou Kexin who had sent the medicine out of town.
The old man was lying in the hospital on his deathbed, and the doctor issued a notice of critical illness.
After eating Chen Yu’s medicine, the old man immediately turned lively, back to full of energy.
“Who do you think is more powerful?” Chen Yu asked Zhou Kexin. “Me, or Zhuge Kongming?”
Zhou Kexin was stumped.
“What if you compare me to the First Emperor?” Chen Yu asked again.
“It seems… they’re more powerful.”
One was the first ancient emperor, and the other was a legendary person whose name would be passed down for centuries.
Although Zhou Kexin’s education was not high, she was still very familiar with these two historical figures.
Would any of the billions of people in their country not know about them?
“Of course.” Chen Yu smiled faintly and said, “One tried to extend his life with the Seven Star Lamp, while the other poured in the entire nation’s strength to search for the elixir of immortality. This result is?”
“They all failed.”
Zhou Kexin and Chen Yu’s conversation fell into Han Baitao’s ears without missing a word.
Han Baitao felt bitter.
He already knew what Chen Yu meant.
Destiny was something fixed and not something a human could change.
“You’re using your lifespan and your own essence, energy, and spirit as the price to boost your own fortune.” Chen Yu looked at Han Baitao and said, “It’s like draining a pond to catch a fish.”
“The pond dried up, and your fortune increased greatly.”
“This is the result of your own choice. Why do you have to be stubborn when things have come to this?”
The people who Chen Yu saved were all people whose lives shouldn’t have ended.
These people’s fate hadn’t come to an end yet, so they had the opportunity to consult Chen Yu.
As for the person before him, Chen Yu knew that even an immortal would find it hard to save him.
In order to make a fortune, Han Baitao did his best by using a lifespan reduction method again and again.
He finally had enough wealth, but his lifespan had also come to an end.
“Sigh!”
Han Baitao looked up and let out a long sigh. His face was filled with unspeakable sorrow.
As a member of the Mystic Sect of Wonders, how could he not know how difficult it was to defy the heavens?
In ancient times, emperors, generals, ministers, sages, and many others could not increase their lifespans or change their lives.
Even the world would come to an end, let alone mortals.
“Other than your lifespan, there should be another thing that bothers you, right?”
Chen Yu wanted to help Han Baitao increase his lifespan but couldn’t.
On the contrary, Chen Yu could help with the second matter.
“May I ask, Senior, of the three boyfriend candidates I found for my daughter, which one is the best match for her?”
Han Baitao knew that he was about to die, so he was worried that no one would take care of his daughter after he died.
He had specially chosen three outstanding young men for her.
All of them are dragons among men in all aspects.
“None of them are.”
“Your daughter will only have one boyfriend before she turns 25,” Chen Yu said indifferently.
“Who is it?”
Han Baitao asked.
“The person whose leg you broke.”
“Him!”
Han Baitao suddenly felt the world spin.
As the heir to a 200 billion yuan fortune, she could find any boyfriend she wanted, yet she had to find a man filled with lies.
“Your daughter will call you in a while,” Chen Yu said calmly. “You’ll have no choice but to acknowledge their relationship.”
“Tomorrow, your daughter’s boyfriend will give your family a big surprise..”
