I bought a secret manual of the Hehuan Sect for ten yuan.

"Master, it's in room 612 at the end of the corridor on the sixth floor."

"The patient's name is Dong Qian, a distant relative of mine, and he has late-stage pancreatic cancer."

At 10:00 a.m., Chang Siyao brought Qin Ge and Sun Shizheng to the inpatient department of Jiangcheng First Hospital.

This distant relative is truly distant; so distant that even though they live in Jiangcheng, he has only visited once, and so distant that he himself doesn't even know how to address them.

Whether they were related or not, Chang Siyao didn't really care. What he was curious about was whether Qin Ge's medicine was really that miraculous, even able to cure late-stage cancer!

The group arrived on the sixth floor, and just as they were about to reach the end of the corridor, the door to room 611 suddenly opened, and a figure appeared abruptly.

Qin Ge almost instinctively dodged, and the figure bumped right into Sun Miaomiao, who was walking behind him.

"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to..."

The woman who bumped into Sun Miaomiao was a woman in her forties, thin and haggard.

After realizing she had bumped into someone, her first reaction was to apologize. Then her empty eyes slowly focused, and tear tracks were still faintly visible on her face.

The slight anger that had just gathered on Sun Miaomiao's face quickly dissipated. "It's okay, just be careful."

The woman apologized several more times before heading towards the elevator, looking utterly dejected.

Chang Siyao pushed open the door to apartment 612. "Auntie, I'm here. I called you not long ago!"

He couldn't quite figure out his relationship with Dong Qian, so he simply called him Uncle Qian, and Dong Qian's wife naturally had to call him Auntie.

The ward was dimly lit, and on the bed by the window lay an old man who looked to be over seventy years old, with a sallow complexion and sunken eyes.

He was so thin he was skin and bones, with only his abdomen slightly swollen from ascites.

An elderly woman sat with her head down by the hospital bed. Hearing Chang Siyao's voice, she turned around and said, "Oh, it's Xiao Chang. Why did you bring so many people?"

Her voice was flat, and her expression didn't change much.

"Auntie, these two are Dr. Sun and Doctor Sun, and this is our aunt..."

Chang Siyao paused for a moment when introducing Qin Ge, "He is Mr. Qin, and also a doctor."

"Auntie, I told you on the phone that Dr. Qin and his team have a special medicine that can cure Uncle Qian's illness."

"You two should have reached an agreement by now, right?"

"Uncle Qian's condition looks worse and worse. We shouldn't delay; let's give him his medication now!"

"You, Chang Siyao!" The old lady's face changed instantly, and she stood up angrily. "No matter how distant my old man's relationship with you may be, you are still blood relatives!"

"How could you do something so heinous!"

Qin Ge and the others exchanged glances, then their questioning gazes fell on Chang Siyao.

Chang Siyao looked completely bewildered. "Auntie, what are you talking about?"

"Still pretending?!" The old woman's anger intensified. "You just want to use my old man as a guinea pig for your experiments, don't you?"

Her gaze swept over Qin Ge and the others, her aura growing even more imposing. "What kind of bullshit miracle drug is this? Do you think we're so old we don't know anything?"

"You people are just frauds who use living people as test subjects!"

"Luckily, I was careful enough to ask the nurses here, otherwise I would have been fooled by you heartless people!"

"That nurse was practically a doctor, a professional at that. She clearly stated that there is no cure for cancer and warned me not to be easily fooled!"

"Xiao Chang, you've really disappointed us. Even if you're desperate for money, you shouldn't sell your conscience!"

"You still know how to call me 'Auntie'? How much money did they pay you to betray your Uncle Qian like this?"

"Your Uncle Qian may not have many days left to live, but you can't use him as a test subject for drugs just to make money. You're not treating him like a human being!"

"Get out! Get out! If you don't leave, I'll call the police and have you arrested!"

"This..." Chang Siyao's brain wrinkles were almost smoothed out by the old lady's words. "Auntie, listen to me, we're not liars..."

He was still trying to explain, trying to figure out how to persuade the old lady, but Qin Ge had already turned and left.

Sun Shizheng and Sun Miaomiao sighed with regret and followed Qin Ge away.

Chang Siyao hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Dong Qian on the hospital bed. He wanted to try again, "Auntie, you've really misunderstood us. I really want to help!"

"Our doctor... uh, Dr. Qin is very skilled, his medicine is definitely effective, can't you let him try it first?"

"This concerns Uncle Qian's life or death!"

"How about I talk to Uncle Qian when he wakes up? You can discuss it yourselves. Trust me this once, okay? I really have no reason to lie to you!"

"No need!" the old woman sneered. "I've already exposed her, and you're still being stubborn!"

"We've already discussed this; what I just said represents my husband's opinion!"

"You should be glad the old man is asleep right now. He was just waiting for you to come over so he could give you a good scolding!"

"If you try to fool your elders like this, the old man will only scold you more harshly than I will!"

"You guys are really ungrateful. Then fend for yourselves. I don't care anymore!" Chang Siyao turned and left.

The corridor outside the ward.

Chang Siyao said apologetically, "Master, I really did call and communicate with them before coming here. I didn't expect things to turn out like this."

"It's understandable that the elderly are a bit out of touch with the times and are prone to being suspicious. Please don't take it to heart."

He spoke from the bottom of his heart. If he hadn't known Qin Ge's abilities beforehand, he wouldn't have believed that there was any magic cure for cancer!

If anyone else told him they had this medicine, he would have thrown them away as quacks!

"I know, and I understand. You don't need to explain further."

Chang Siyao breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Qin Ge's words, his face lighting up with joy. "Master, then I'll go talk to them again..."

"Vice Hall Master Chang, please don't misunderstand," Qin Ge interrupted Chang Siyao. "I can understand, but that doesn't mean I'm willing to give them another chance."

"It's reasonable to be questioned in this situation; they haven't done anything wrong, but that doesn't change the fact that I'm unhappy."

"There are plenty of options for drug trials; I only have a limited supply. Why must it be these specific drugs?"

"You can't force fate; learn that!"

He glanced up at the door of room 611, then turned to Sun Miaomiao with a smile, "Dr. Sun, I think you and 611 are destined to be together. You're so good-looking, it will definitely be easy to communicate with you. Thank you for your help."

"Where am I small?"

"The older one is here too, so aren't you the younger one? Otherwise, if you both call me Dr. Sun, do you know who I'm referring to?"

Sun Miaomiao looked unconvinced, but she still happily scurried off to 611.

Praising a woman as "beautiful" has a similar effect to praising a man as "you're amazing," and few people can resist it.
