Chapter 141 The Zuo Family's Invitation (2)

Bai Shuang gently shook her head. Bai Chang understood and turned to tell the waiter, "Please tell him that my young lady is already resting."

Let's give this arrogant person a break for now.

To her surprise, the waiter came again not long after, and she felt a little embarrassed.

"Excuse me, but Butler Zuo asked me to tell you that the Zuo family is willing to offer a large sum of money to invite Miss Bai to come to our home for a medical consultation."

A hefty invitation? Why not go and see? Although I don't know the specifics of the Zuo family, judging from the current situation, they are either wealthy or powerful.

Let it cool off for a bit, teach them a lesson, that's enough. Don't go too far with anything, or things will get out of hand and it won't benefit anyone.

"Tell him to wait a moment."

"Get ready, put on some decent clothes, grab your gun, and come down with me."

At this point, it's necessary to be high-profile and increase the momentum of the negotiations. The hotel is heated, so there's no need to wear a thick coat.

A few minutes later, Bai Jiu and his companion arrived fully armed, dressed in suits, wearing sunglasses, and with guns tucked into their belts.

Bai Shuang wore a black blazer, revealing a white cashmere sweater. She didn't like wearing skirts or similar items; in the apocalypse, fighting was a constant threat, so a clean and neat appearance was preferable.

Meanwhile, in the living room downstairs, Butler Zuo was experiencing a complex mix of emotions.

The old lady in the family is seriously ill, and the master asked him to invite Miss Bai. He thought this matter would be easy to handle, because as everyone knows, the reward for treating patients in the Zuo family is 10,000 points.

These days, who wouldn't be tempted by the prospect of 10,000 points waiting ahead?

Whoever the Zuo family invites is a blessing for her. Countless doctors are vying to treat the old lady, but none are even qualified.

To his surprise, this Miss Bai was incredibly ungrateful. Even after he explained that he was from the Zuo family and asked the waiter to invite her over, she refused!

Normally, when people hear he's coming, they rush to greet him...

As Butler Zuo was thinking, he heard footsteps on the stairs. He looked up and saw a young, aloof woman with a pair of cool bodyguards, followed by a huge wolfhound that seemed to sweep across the room.

The three were tall and slender, with outstanding looks, and their movements were perfectly synchronized.

The waiter standing nearby was also stunned. When did these three people arrive at their hotel? How come he didn't know?

Butler Zuo was also dumbfounded. Wasn't the Bai family of Tangcheng a hospital? Shouldn't they be benevolent and kind-hearted doctors?

How did the Bai family manage to train this generation's successor into such a cold-blooded killer, someone who looks like he'd start a fight at the slightest provocation?

The butler's sense of superiority crumbled instantly.

Those who can become the Zuo family's butlers are all shrewd and have dealt with people all year round. What kind of people haven't they seen?

He's not afraid of bad people, and he's even less afraid of good people. With the Zuo family's backing, whoever he is, he'll either respect him a little, fear him a little, and the rest depends entirely on his mood.

However, there are also those he can't handle, and those he least wants to deal with, namely "hotheads," especially those with explosive fighting skills, and those "hotheads" he has no choice but to use.

Such people are fearless and difficult to deal with; you have to bite the bullet and deal with them.

We need to be careful today, otherwise, we won't get things done. Not only will we get a scolding when we get back, but if we get beaten up here, that would be even worse.

As Bai Shuang and her companions walked up the stairs, they saw a middle-aged man in a black leather jacket sitting on a sofa, his brows furrowed with shrewdness.

As Butler Zuo pondered this, his posture became somewhat lower.

He saw the three people and the dog come down the stairs, and immediately stood up from his seat, gesturing with his right hand to the sofa opposite him, "Please."

"Miss Bai, please have a seat."

Bai Shuang didn't stand on ceremony and sat down.

Bai Jiu and Bai Shuang stood like two pine trees behind Bai Shuang, while the vicious wolfhound squatted beside them, staring at him with sharp eyes.

"I am Butler Zuo."

I have long admired Miss Bai's name; it is a great honor to meet you today!

"You flatter me."

"It's like this, my old lady is seriously ill. I came here tonight on the orders of the head of the family to specially invite Miss Bai to treat her."

"The consultation fee is negotiable. If Miss Bai can cure my old lady, the Zuo family is willing to offer 10,000 points as a reward."

"What if it can't be cured?"

"With Miss Bai's medical skills, she won't be unable to cure him."

"You're wrong. Doctors are human, not gods. No matter how skilled they are, there are diseases they can't cure."

I just asked what would happen if it couldn't be cured. Why are you avoiding the question?

To be honest, we met your young master yesterday when we were having dinner at "Zhenxiufang". Someone recommended that I go there for treatment.

He said that if he was cured, he would receive 10,000 points; if he wasn't cured, he would receive nothing.

So, if something happens to a patient, is the doctor obligated to pay with their life?

"No, no, the Zuo family isn't the kind of family that takes lives easily."

You may not know, but my young master is spoiled by the old lady and doesn't watch his words. Please be magnanimous.

The butler replied verbally, but his mind was racing. Since the young master's arrogance offended Miss Bai, it wasn't his own fault for not handling things properly.

If things don't go well, you'll have an excuse to report back to the master, which is a good thing!

Butler Zuo continued, "The 'no payment if you can't cure the illness' statement is actually meant for those quack doctors. You don't know, but every day quite a few people come to our door claiming to be doctors, but they can't cure any illnesses at all."

If points were given out every time, the Zuo family's doorstep would be worn down by the constant foot traffic.

There was also an older doctor who said he used to work at the provincial hospital before the disaster. The old lady's health didn't improve, but he racked up huge expenses and even needed us to drive her around.

The butler got more and more excited as he talked.

"Just because you know a little medicine doesn't mean you're something special. How dare you make demands of us..."
