Outside the VIP ward of the hospital, several men in black suits stood there. These were Tian Shou's men, who were there 24 hours a day to take care of Tian Shou's sister.
This shows how much Tian Shou cares about his sister. The black-suited henchmen at the door immediately bowed respectfully and greeted him upon seeing him approach.
"Big brother."
Tian Shou nodded, took the flowers and nutritional supplements and went into the ward. The ward was filled with various nutritional supplements and fruit baskets, and there were potted plants with fresh flowers by the window.
As for the bed in the hospital room, there lay a young girl in her early twenties with fair skin and bright, sparkling eyes.
However, the girl's face was somewhat pale, like a sickly beauty, which made people feel pity for her.
Tian Shou's cold expression softened, and he said, "Sister, I've come to see you."
At this moment, when the girl saw Tian Shou come over, she smiled and called out, "Big Brother."
However, the girl's voice was somewhat weak. This person was Tian Shou's younger sister, Bao Mei, who was also his biological sister and Tian Shou's only relative in this world.
Tian Shou has always been very protective of his younger sister, Bao Mei, and tries his best to fulfill her every request.
However, Bao Mei has suffered from congenital heart disease since childhood, and her health has never been very good. Now Bao Mei is sitting in the ward receiving an IV drip, and she looks pitiful.
Tian Shou came to the bedside. There was a vase next to him. He put the carnations he had bought into the vase, then sat down next to Bao Mei, gently held her hand, and his face was full of sorrow.
Bao Mei was overjoyed at Tian Shou's arrival: "Big brother, you've come to see me after you've finished dealing with things."
Tian Shou nodded and said, "I just finished dealing with it and came over to keep you company right away."
Chen Hua, who was standing next to Tian Shou, also called out, "Miss Bao."
After greeting everyone, Chen Hua waited outside the ward with his younger brother, not wanting to disturb the brother and sister's conversation. After all, it wasn't good for there to be too many people in the ward, as it could disturb the patient's rest and also affect his older brother's conversation with Bao Mei.
After Chen Hua left, Tian Shou picked up an apple from the fruit basket, peeled it with a fruit knife, carefully cut it into small pieces, stuck toothpicks in them, and handed it to Bao Mei, showing great care.
It is obvious that Tian Shou has done this many times:
“Little sister, you used to follow me around like a little shadow when we were little. I never imagined you would grow up so fast. If you have the chance, I’ll take you out for a walk.”
Every time Tianshou came to visit Baomei, he would tell her about things happening outside. Because Baomei was in poor health, she spent most of her time in the hospital and her freedom was restricted.
Tian Shou was also worried that his younger sister would be lonely in the hospital room, so he would often talk to her about the relationship between the siblings.
Bao Mei listened with great interest every time, eating fruit as she went. However, not wanting her older brother to worry, she said to Tian Shou, "Brother, I'd like to eat another pear."
Upon hearing this, Tian Shou nodded without hesitation: "Okay, I'll peel a pear for you right away."
After saying that, Tian Shou smiled and said that it would be good for Bao Mei's health to eat more fruit, which would also help her recover.
He carefully peeled a pear for Bao Mei, and the two chatted and laughed together.
Just then, a knock came at the door.
"Dong dong."
Chen Hua then walked in and whispered in Tian Shou's ear, "Brother, Dr. Wang, the attending physician, is here."
Tian Shou nodded, gently patted Bao Mei's hand and said, "Bao Mei, you go ahead and get your IV drip. I have something to do."
Upon hearing this, Bao Mei nodded obediently: "Big brother, you don't need to worry about me, you go ahead with your work."
Bao Mei is also sensible and obedient, and doesn't want to be constantly restricted by her illness.
Tian Shou was also filled with helplessness. Although he was as strong as an ox, his sister was suffering from a long-term illness, which made him feel very sorry for her. After all, Bao Mei was his only relative.
After Tian was taken out of the ward, the smile on his face disappeared, and he frowned. He didn't want his sister to see him looking unhappy.
Dr. Wang, the attending physician, was waiting for Tian Shou in the corridor. Tian Shou asked in a somewhat gloomy tone:
"Dr. Wang, how is my sister doing now?"
Dr. Wang sighed and said, "Miss Bao's congenital heart disease is getting worse. I still recommend that she go to the United States for treatment. The medical conditions there are more advanced, and the treatment results will be better."
Because Tian Shou's younger sister, Bao Mei, has had congenital heart disease since childhood. This disease is extremely difficult to cure, and even if surgery is performed, it carries a huge risk to her life. Most treatments are conservative.
Although Tian Shou is wealthy, Taiwan's medical level is not yet advanced enough to cure Bao Mei.
Moreover, as Bao Mei grew older, her condition began to worsen, and the burden on her body became heavier and heavier, which was also a great worry for Tian Shou.
Tian Shou remained silent for a long time before saying helplessly, "I'll consider it later. Please take good care of my sister, Dr. Wang."
Upon hearing this, Dr. Wang replied sincerely, "This is what I should do. I will try my best to keep the patient in a stable condition."
After saying that, Dr. Wang turned around, but Tian Shou's face immediately darkened. He knew that this disease was difficult to cure, and even going to the United States could not guarantee a 100% success rate in treatment.
Otherwise, Tian Shou would have already taken Bao Mei to America. Dr. Wang's words also carried a hint of regret, which made Tian Shou realize that the condition was already very serious.
"Dong dong."
Footsteps approached, and a henchman walked up to Tian Shou and said, "Boss, you have a phone call."
Tian Shou frowned, not in a good mood, but still answered the phone: "Hello?"
The call was from Ren Jiu, who was sitting in the villa smoking a cigar.
"Tian Shou, I am Ren Jiu. I would like to meet with you. There are some things I want to discuss with you in person."
Ren Jiu is currently the strongest of the five general leaders of the Sanlian Gang, equal to the combined strength of the other two general leaders.
In fact, Tian Shou also admired Ren Jiu's business acumen, knowing that instant noodles had become popular throughout Southeast Asia, and that Ren Jiu's Qiangwei Beer business had also expanded, not to mention other businesses.
As a short mule, he naturally lacked business acumen, but Ren Jiu did make a lot of money, allowing his brothers to live a good life.
He had also inquired and knew that Ren Jiu was always generous to his underlings. Tian Shou actually didn't have a bad impression of Ren Jiu, but he asked:
What do you want to talk about?
Tian Shou understood that Ren Jiu probably wanted to win him over. Ren Jiu smiled slightly and said confidently:
"Tian Shou, what I actually want to talk about is your sister. I have a way to cure your sister's illness and save her life."
Ren Jiu investigated Tian Shou and learned that Tian Shou's sister had been living in the hospital for many years.
Tian Shou's eyes narrowed, and his tone immediately became anxious as he said, "Where should we meet? I'll be right there."
Ren Jiu paused for a moment and said, "Come to my Zijing Tea House now, I'll wait for you here."
After saying that, Ren Jiu hung up the phone. What Dr. Wang had just said made him a little anxious, and he also realized that his sister's condition had reached a critical point.
As for what Ren Jiu said, although he was skeptical, he was willing to gamble even if there was only a sliver of hope. Chen Hua, standing beside him, respectfully asked, "Brother, is that Ren Jiu trying to win us over?"
Chen Hua had overheard the conversation, but he found it somewhat unreliable, since the medical standards at Kaohsiung First Hospital were among the best in the world, second only to the United States.
Is there a doctor with even better medical skills over there?
Tian Shou shook his head and said, "No matter what, let's go see Ren Jiu first. Ahua, go get the car ready."
Upon hearing this, Chen Hua nodded and immediately said, "Yes, brother."
After saying that, Tian Shou immediately arranged for a nanny car to take Chen Hua to the teahouse. After arriving at the Zijing Teahouse, Chen Guilin and Bai Youling waited outside the private room.
After seeing Tian return, Chen Guilin made a gesture of invitation and said:
"Master Tian Shou, the big boss is waiting for you inside."
Upon hearing this, Tian Shou nodded, and was about to lead his men inside when he was stopped by Chen Guilin and Bai Youling:
"I'm sorry, only the Hall Master of Tian Shou can go in."
Upon hearing this, Chen Hua, standing behind Tian Shou, looked rather displeased. He glared at Chen Guilin and Bai Youling, also worried that something might happen to his boss.
However, Tian Shou waved his hand and instructed Chen Hua, "Wait for me outside."
Upon hearing this, Chen Hua could only nod and say, "Okay, brother."
After saying that, Tian Shou walked into the private room alone, while Ren Jiu leisurely poured himself a cup of tea. When he saw Tian Shou, he waved to him, indicating that he should sit down.
Ren Jiu poured Tian Shou a cup of tea. Tian Shou sat down opposite Ren Jiu, but didn't drink the tea. He stared at Ren Jiu and asked bluntly:
"Ren Jiu, can you really save my sister? What exactly do you plan to do?"
Tian Shou was very concerned about his sister's condition, but he wasn't stupid. He couldn't just hand her over to Ren Jiu without knowing what methods Ren Jiu had.
Tian Shou's younger sister has always been the apple of his eye. Ren Jiu had already investigated her before. As for the healing potion that Ren Jiu obtained from the system, he used it to bribe Tian Shou and cure Bao Mei's heart disease.
Ren Jiu picked up his teacup, took a sip, and said slowly:
"I can save your sister, but I need your loyalty to me. There is no free lunch in this world. To save your sister, I will have to pay a great price to get a master to help."
"I guarantee that your sister's heart disease can be cured, with no cure."
Tian Shou looked into Ren Jiu's eyes without hesitation and then said, "Ren Jiu, I hope you're not lying to me."
After saying that, Tian Shou picked up the tea and drank it all in one gulp. Ren Jiu scoffed when he heard this.
"I, Ren Jiu, never lie, nor do I deign to lie. Whether you agree or not is up to you."
Tian Shou didn't hesitate. He looked at Ren Jiu and then said in a deep voice:
"If you can cure my sister, I will swear allegiance to you and never betray you."
Tian Shou is willing to pay any price for his sister, even to pledge allegiance to Ren Jiu, since Bao Mei is now his only family.
Ren Jiu knew he was a man of his word and quite honest, so he waved his hand and said:
"You take your sister to my villa later. Wait outside the villa and come pick her up tomorrow morning. I guarantee your sister will be cured."
Ren Jiu still has that kind of credibility. In fact, Tian Shou was also afraid that Ren Jiu would use his sister as a threat, but he thought about it.
Ren Jiu has always been upright and honest in his dealings since his debut, and has never done anything underhanded, so he nodded.
