Chapter 215 Wanting to Ask Su Su to Save Someone
Upon hearing Xi Xiaoxuan's question, Shen Baisu turned to look at the patient and explained, "It will take a little more time, probably about half an hour, before the patient wakes up."

Upon hearing this, Xi Xiaoxuan breathed a long sigh of relief, "That's good, that's good."

"Teacher Su, thank you so much this time."

"I don't know how to thank you all. How about this, after my husband Lao Tao wakes up, I'll treat you all to a meal so I can properly thank you. Is that alright?"

As Xi Xiaoxuan spoke, she took out her phone.

"Let's exchange contact information first. Once Lao Tao is discharged from the hospital, I..."

Before Xi Xiaoxuan could finish speaking, Shen Baisu interrupted her, "No need. We need to get back to Yaocheng as soon as possible. We won't stay in the capital for long."

Upon hearing this, Xi Xiaoxuan regretfully put away her phone and once again solemnly expressed her gratitude to Shen Baisu and the others.

Shen Baisu did not linger and left the ward with Su Qing and the others.

Xi Xiaoxuan was worried about her husband's condition, so she didn't go out to see him off, but asked Tao Hongfen to help her see him off.

Tao Hongfen had originally intended to see Xi Xiaoxuan off, so when Xi Xiaoxuan spoke up, Tao Hongfen naturally did not refuse.

She, along with Academician Xiao and others, escorted Shen Baisu and the others to the hospital building.

Originally, Shen Baisu told them to go back when they arrived outside the ward, but they insisted on seeing Shen Baisu and the others downstairs.

Before Shen Baisu and the others got into the car, Academician Xiao deliberately reminded Su Qing, "Professor Su, don't forget about teaching alchemy."

"If it's not too much trouble, please check my WeChat often."

Su Qing nodded to her, "I remember."

Academician Xiao was overjoyed when he heard this.

The others, however, became anxious and kept asking Academician Xiao what he meant by alchemy.
Did they secretly learn something else behind their backs?

Academician Xiao did not answer them, but waved to Shen Baisu and the others, "Then I'll go upstairs first. I'll go to Yaocheng in a few days, and we'll get together again then."

"Goodbye, Teacher Su!"

Despite being nearly seventy years old, he was still as lively and active as a child. After waving to Shen Baisu and the others, he jogged away.

Seeing this, the other elderly men and women waved goodbye to Shen Baisu and the others, and then chased after Academician Xiao, determined to find out from him what he had secretly learned.

Everyone else left, but Tao Hongfen showed no intention of leaving.

Shen Baisu said to her, "It's been delivered to the car, you can go back now."

With that, Shen Baisu waved to her and turned to get into the car.

"Teacher Su, please wait a moment."

Just as Shen Baisu opened the car door, Tao Hongfen called out to her.

Shen Baisu kept the car door open and looked back at Tao Hongfen.

Shen Baisu had already prepared her response, expecting Tao Hongfen to express her gratitude further. However, Tao Hongfen asked her, "How do you usually calculate your consultation fees when you make house calls?"

Shen Baisu: ?

Is this to help the patient pay their bill?

"I will discuss the consultation fee with the relevant personnel later; you don't need to pay any additional fees."

She came all this way because she had previously signed an agreement with Xia Yanqing, and she was simply rescuing people according to that agreement.

Before this, Xia Yanqing or Xia Anhe always paid her referral fees; they never charged the patient's family separately.

"No, that's not what I meant." As soon as Tao Hongfen heard Shen Baisu's words, she knew that Shen Baisu had misunderstood. She quickly waved her hand at her. "I'm not talking about my older brother. It's like this, a younger member of my family is sick, and the problem is quite serious. We wanted to apply for a treatment appointment at the Imperial Hospital, but we haven't been able to get one yet. So, I thought I'd ask you."

After listening, Shen Baisu understood; it turned out they wanted her to save other people. "Sorry, I can't save the patients you mentioned." With that, Shen Baisu turned and got into her car.

The monthly rescue KPI has been met, and the spiritual energy is almost depleted, so she won't rescue the person Tao Hongfen mentioned.

"Wait, wait a minute."

Shen Baisu had just stepped one foot onto the car when her arm was grabbed.

Shen Baisu narrowed his eyes and turned to look at Tao Hongfen.

When Tao Hongfen met Shen Baisu's cold gaze, she was stunned for a moment and subconsciously let go of Shen Baisu.

"I'm sorry, I was just trying to save lives."

"That person really can't wait any longer, please help me save her."

"Don't worry, we will definitely not shortchange you on the consultation fee, or you can pay whatever amount you want."

"Please save her. We have no other choice but to come to you."

Tao Hongfen's eyes reddened, filled with pleading. She looked at Shen Baisu expectantly, as if she would stand there forever if Shen Baisu refused to save the person.

Shen Baisu often did things like charging money to save people when he was cultivating immortality, and he had also experienced people begging him to save them.

Even though this experience was not much different from before, for some reason, Shen Baisu didn't want to agree.

Shen Baisu: "What is the other person's identity? And what illness do they have?"

Upon hearing this, Tao Hongfen immediately introduced the patient's condition to Shen Baisu, "The patient's name is Meng Qianqian, she is my niece-in-law. She has a hereditary heart disease, which was diagnosed not long ago. Her condition is very bad now, and she is in danger of dying at any time."

“I heard that you cured a person with heart disease before, so I suppose you can cure my niece-in-law as well.”

After hearing Tao Hongfen's words, Shen Baisu's expression became complicated. "Meng Qianqian?"

Tao Hongfen nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes."

Shen Baisu: "If I'm not mistaken, the nephew you mentioned is named Huo Yuchen, right?"

Upon hearing this, Tao Hongfen's expression brightened slightly. "Yes, yes, Teacher Su, do you know them?"

Shen Baisu: "Not familiar with each other."

"I won't treat the patient you mentioned. Goodbye."

After saying that, without giving Tao Hongfen time to react, Shen Baisu quickly got into the car and said to Su Qing, who was sitting in the driver's seat, "Let's go, senior sister."

Upon hearing this, Su Qing immediately drove off.

Shen Baisu and the others drove away in a cloud of dust, leaving Tao Hongfen standing there in a daze.

After realizing what had happened, she immediately raised her hand, only to find it was too late; the car had already disappeared from her sight, and she had only grasped at thin air.

Tao Hongfen looked rather unwell. She paced back and forth for a long time before finally hesitantly taking out her phone and making a call. "Hello, husband, it's me."

"I'm sorry, I didn't do a good job of what you asked me to do."

"Don't be angry, it's not my fault. Teacher Su had already asked me about the patient's condition, but she seemed to know Yu Chen and Qian Qian. After hearing their names, she just left."

"Yes, I saw the person and took pictures."

"Good good."

"I...I can't go back yet, my older brother hasn't woken up yet, I have to...Hello? Honey? Hello?"

Looking at the phone that had been unilaterally cut off, Tao Hongfen's brows furrowed with deep sorrow. She stood there for a long time, clutching her phone, before finally putting it away and turning away from the hospital, looking utterly dejected.
