Chapter 190: Secret Medicine of the Sect
"Vice President Gu, do you really have no solution at all?"
Nanzhou always speaks his mind, so he asked Gu Chuxin directly.
Gu Chuxin looked at the rude Nanzhou, a hint of displeasure flashed across his eyes, and a cold voice sounded.
"You are the Fourth Young Master Nanzhou, right? I heard Duan Zhu mention you, saying that you are a straightforward child. From your tone, it seems that you are questioning my medical skills?"
Nan Zhou was about to speak, but Nan Zhuoyuan next to him stood up and gave him a warning look.
Then Nan Zhuoyuan faced Gu Chuxin and said with a smile, "Vice President Gu, Zhou was just worried about his mother's illness and had a bad temper, so he spoke rudely. He definitely didn't mean to question your medical skills."
At this point, he turned around and said to Nanzhou: "Azhou, apologize to Vice President Gu."
Nanzhou bowed his head and admitted his mistake under the scrutiny of his elder brother: "Vice President Gu, I'm sorry, I said the wrong thing just now. I just wanted to ask if you have any way to let my mother survive."
Gu Chuxin then put away his displeased attitude and turned his gaze to Nan Qingqing who was kneeling on the ground, putting on the look of a kind elder.
"Qingqing, get up quickly. You've already knelt down and begged me like this. Even if I can't save Duan Zhu, I will try my best to let her live a little longer."
Nan Qingqing stood up slowly and looked at Gu Chuxin with tears in her eyes.
"Vice President Gu, is this true?"
Gu Chuxin nodded, "I have a secret medicine from my sect. One pill can extend a person's life for a day, but the side effects are also great. The damage to the body is irreversible. After taking it, she will never wake up again."
"But she couldn't wake up anyway, so this side effect doesn't count as a side effect for her."
Nan Qingqing heard this and a hint of joy flashed in her eyes. She said, "As long as Mom can live, even if she never wakes up again, I can accept it. What if there is a miracle in the future and she wakes up again?"
Nan Zhuoyuan stood there silently, with an indescribable and complicated expression, and the emotions in his eyes were completely unreadable.
Nanzhou frowned and said directly: "No, you can't take this medicine!"
When Gu Chuxin heard this, his face immediately became extremely ugly.
She said in a cold voice: "Qingqing, I am here to treat Duan Zhu today only for your sake. I even took out the secret medicine that our sect never passes on to others."
"I have done my best to treat Duan Zhu's illness, but your fourth brother doesn't agree, so forget it."
After saying this, she let go of Nan Qingqing's hand and was about to walk out.
When Nan Qingqing saw that she was about to leave, she was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan and hurriedly grabbed her.
"Vice President Gu, please don't leave. Everyone in the world knows that your medical skills are the best. If you don't save her, then no one else will be able to cure my mother's illness."
Seeing that Gu Chuxin was determined to leave, she looked at Nanzhou pleadingly.
"Fourth brother, you should apologize to Gu Chuxin quickly, Mom can't die!"
Nanzhou's face turned pale as he looked at the pitiful Nan Qingqing.
He thought of what his mother taught him since he was a child: if his sister came back one day, he must work hard to compensate her and agree to all her requests.
These words were firmly engraved in his mind and soul, making it impossible for him to say anything to reject Nan Qingqing.
"Vice President Gu, I..."
Just as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Nan Zhuoyuan.
"Vice President Gu, my fourth brother is not good at speaking, so you don't have to care about what he says. However, treating our mother is a big deal, and it's not something that we three siblings can decide."
He raised his dark eyes and looked at Gu Chuxin, "I need to discuss it with everyone in the family before I can decide whether to agree or not."
"It won't take too long. I will give you an answer the day after tomorrow at the latest."
