Qin Luo was taken aback by what it said.
"Yeah! How did I end up bringing back a patient? Sigh, it's all my fault for being too compassionate as a doctor! I forgot about the important matter as soon as I thought about saving lives!"
"Stop bragging, what do we do now?"
Qin Luo stopped smiling.
"We can only cure him first, and then go to the Zhong residence under the pretext of a follow-up examination!"
The little girl, Wu Hua, sighed, sounding much older than she was.
"That's the only way!"
Just when one problem is solved, another one arises.
The two men stared at the razor in their hands, lost in thought.
"Luo Luo, did you not tell Madam Zhong that you're going to shave your head?"
Qin Luo nodded guiltily.
"I forgot..."
"How could you forget? Don't you know how much the ancients valued hair?"
"So what do we do now?!"
Wu Hua sighed helplessly.
"Let's discuss this with Madam Zhong tomorrow! If all else fails, we'll have to use my life force!"
Qin Luo was waiting for these words.
"My darling, what good deeds did I do in my past life to meet someone as wonderful as you! You are so kind-hearted, you are practically a living Bodhisattva!"
Wu Hua was amused by her exaggerated words.
"Oh, I'm not that kind of person! You only took on this patient to help me find the beast, so it's only right that I do my part!"
Qin Luo hugged it tightly.
"My baby is the best!"
"Luo Luo is fine too!"
Then the two began a long exchange of compliments...
Early the next morning
The auction house had just opened when the Zhong family's carriage arrived at the door.
After getting out of the car, Madam Zhong personally helped Young Master Zhong down.
Steward Chu ushered the two into the reception room in the backyard.
"Madam Zhong, you've arrived very early! I'll have someone go and fetch the two young masters right away!"
"No rush, let them sleep a little longer. We can wait here for a while, it won't hurt!"
Manager Chu couldn't really let her wait there, so after a few polite words, he went to call Qin Luo and Wu Hua.
As soon as Qin Luo and Wu Hua left the space, they saw the steward banging loudly on the door.
After the door opened, Steward Chu informed them that Madam Zhong and Young Master Zhong were already waiting in the hall.
She really hadn't expected Madam Zhong to be in such a hurry. After quickly washing up, she followed Steward Chu to the main hall.
When Madam Zhong saw her arrive, she quickly got up, took her son's hand, and walked to Qin Luo, speaking to her in a very kind tone.
"Xiao Luo! This is my son, Zhong Xiaoyou!"
Qin Luo responded politely
"A brave and skilled warrior, blessed with good fortune—what a wonderful name!"
Then he reached out and grasped Zhong Xiaoyou's hand.
"Hello, my name is Qin Luo, and I'll be the doctor performing your surgery later!"
This was the first time Zhong Xiaoyou had been treated so affectionately by a stranger since he went blind.
He said "Hello!" somewhat embarrassed, and then quickly withdrew his hand.
Qin Luo didn't pay any attention to his actions, but simply asked him to sit down and carefully examined the location of his head injury.
After confirming that it was roughly in line with his own guess, he turned his attention to Madam Zhong.
"Madam Zhong, your son's injuries are similar to what I described yesterday, but there is one thing I must make clear to you!"
Upon hearing this, Madam Zhong gripped the armrest of the chair tightly, her heart filled with worry that she might say something about the incurable disease.
"Xiao Luo, just tell me what you want. Take whatever you have! Please help my son. He's only twenty years old, he has a long life ahead of him! I really can't bear to see him stay in that darkness forever..."
As she spoke, tears streamed down her face, and Qin Luo could only take out a handkerchief to wipe them away.
"Madam Zhong, I will do my best to treat Young Master Zhong. Please calm down first, and I will explain everything to you in detail!"
Upon hearing this, Madam Zhong stopped crying and gently wiped away her tears.
The steward, listening nearby, was terrified, fearing that if Madam Zhong found out, Qin Luo would open up Young Master Zhong's head.
It would be better if she smashed Wangu in a fit of anger, but I'm afraid she'll go crazy and have her brothers kill them all!
He also took a handkerchief and, with trembling hands, wiped away the beads of sweat from his forehead!
Seeing that he was nervous, Wu Hua deliberately teased him.
"Uncle, I'm still a baby. If we start fighting after Luo Luo finishes talking, you have to protect me!"
One sentence gave the manager a way out.
"Young Master, rest assured, I will protect you even at the cost of my life!"
After expressing his loyalty, he couldn't help but praise himself for his good fortune. He believed that if he protected the young master, Old Master Yuan would surely save his life!
Thinking of this, he was no longer afraid and stayed by Wu Hua's side without leaving her side!
Wu Hua ignored him, only silently reminding Qin Luo to quickly explain the situation.
The sooner the surgery is performed, the sooner we can go back to the Zhong residence with them and check if there's any trace of Le Feifei.
Qin Luo then succinctly stated the problem.
"Madam Zhong, because your son is blind due to the reason in his brain, I need to open up his brain and shave his hair. Would you be willing to do that?"
Madam Zhong could hardly believe her ears.
"What...what did you say? Open up the brain? How can that person even survive?"
Qin Luo looked at her with an extremely serious expression.
"Yes, at least it won't be worse than it is now!"
Before Madam Zhong could speak, Zhong Xiaoyou suddenly spoke up.
"I can accept anything, as long as it's not worse than it is now! I hope Mother will grant my request!"
He knew that Madam Zhong had sacrificed too much for him over the years.
He didn't want things to continue like this, and he didn't want his mother to grieve for him day and night any longer.
Regardless of the final outcome, he was determined to give it a try!
Seeing her son's resolute decision, Madam Zhong, despite her inner fear, lovingly held his hand and offered him support.
"Okay, Mother will listen to you!"
