Chapter 160: Bone acquaintance
Chen Wan picked up the check on the table and verified its authenticity with an eye for money. After confirming that it was real, he put it directly into his pocket.
Richard smiled when he saw this: “It seems that Miss Shen is very confident that she can cure my boss.”
"To treat a disease, you have to first see the patient's condition. How can you see through a screen?"
Shen Wan looked behind the screen and could only vaguely see a broad shadow, like a fat man sitting behind it.
The rest are blocked tightly and can be seen blurry.
Richard said first as a precaution: "Ms. Shen, to be honest, my boss's condition... is much more serious than that of a child."
"He is also cursed." Shen Wan saw through him, "The savage child is just testing. You can't find a solution abroad, so you set your sights on China and try to find a Chinese doctor."
Richard smiled and said, "That's right. Only the person who can really save the child is the one our boss wants to see."
“This is also the purpose of this academic conference.”
"Miss Shen is really discerning and can see it at a glance."
Chen Wan: "I've seen similar academic conferences before, but rarely are they as grand as yours, with so many medical instruments brought in. It's normal to show off the most advanced instruments, but it's rare to bring in the entire set."
"Richard, let her come over."
The boss behind the screen spoke.
Richard made a gesture of invitation to Shen Wan.
Shen Wan walked around the screen.
What came into view was a fat man who probably weighed more than 300 pounds.
He collapsed on the sofa like a pool of rotten meat, his body covered with more sores than a child's.
These boils swelled up to be bigger than coins, rising high on every inch of his skin, so densely packed together that they looked like terrifying little hills.
Each dark red hillock was so tight that it seemed as if it was about to stretch the skin and burst at any moment.
The fat boss stared at Shen Wan with dark and turbid eyes.
Richard came over and asked, "Miss Shen, how is it? Are you sure?"
Shen Wan glanced at the fat boss's face.
His face was also covered with boils, like enlarged versions of acne, which deformed his facial features and gave him a weird and deformed look.
"The curse is quite deep, you have to pay extra."
Richard breathed a sigh of relief, "Money is not a problem, I can give you double it."
"As long as you can save the boss and make him heal."
Shen Wan nodded: "OK."
She turned around, picked up a pen and paper from the table, wrote something, and handed it to Richard.
"Go prepare the items on the list. Once you have everything, the curse can be lifted."
Richard glanced at the list, what with incense ash, cinnabar, etc…
"good."
He quickly went out to buy it.
The fat boss stared at her dimly, "Miss Shen, please sit down."
Shen Wan sat down calmly.
The fat boss was a little surprised, "You are the first person who is not afraid when seeing me."
"I've seen people scarier than you. This is nothing."
Chen Wan was very calm, so calm that the fat boss looked at him with new eyes.
“Chinese metaphysics is profound and extensive, I wonder what Miss Shen can see from me?”
Shen Wan glanced at him again.
"Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"
The fat boss smiled, and the pustules on his face squeezed together and looked like they were about to burst.
"I want to see the power of Chinese metaphysics."
This clearly shows how capable Minghan is.
Chen Wan said calmly, "You've been cursed for more than a month, and you've survived until now by eating carrion."
The fat boss was surprised: "Can you tell that I have eaten rotten meat?"
"Even though you've used deodorant, it still can't cover up the smell of dead rat in your mouth when you speak."
Shen Wan said calmly, if she hadn't used the Qingxin Jue, she would have been vomited by the smoke.
"This kind of stench can only be caused by eating rotten meat."
The fat boss mentioned this dark scene and gnashed his teeth and said, "Ever since I was cursed, I can't control myself from eating dead animals. The more rotten they are, the more delicious they taste..."
Shen Wan frowned, "Stop talking, there's a picture."
"You got cursed because you are greedy."
The fat boss raised his eyebrows slightly, and two large pustules bulged high on his brow bones.
"oh?"
"Miss Shen is indeed very discerning."
"It's better to do less immoral things, as they will shorten your life."
“Miss Shen means that I don’t have much time left to live?”
"What do you think?"
"Hahaha, as long as the curse is resolved, I can survive. Isn't Miss Shen already sure of victory?"
The fat boss grinned, and the smell of dead rats filled the room.
Chen Wan hurriedly performed a freshening technique to suppress the stench.
"Miss Shen, are you interested in developing in our company? The salary is easy to negotiate."
Shen Wan said calmly: “Not interested.”
"And don't look at me with such a probing look, Boss Richard."
The fat boss was shocked when these words were spoken, and he tried hard to maintain a disgusting smile on his face.
“Miss Shen misunderstood, Richard went out.”
Shen Wan said calmly: "Although you have been cursed and become unrecognizable, your skin has changed, but your bones will not change."
"The external features presented by a person's bone structure and morphology, even if the skin is disfigured, the bone structure is still there."
"Richard's appearance outside should be the appearance that your bones have."
Shen Wan revealed: "He just had plastic surgery to look like you."
"And you are the real Richard."
She had seen Richard in her previous life and remembered what his bone structure looked like.
From the moment she saw the fake Richard outside, she guessed that the real Richard was hiding in the dark.
Sure enough, this is the real Richard.
Richard is a man of no conscience and has killed many people.
The reason she agreed to lift his curse was that she realized that even if the curse was lifted, Richard would not survive more than a month.
In his previous life, Richard must have met some master who used a vicious method to extend his life, allowing him to live a few more years.
This time, she would not give him a chance to survive.
The real Richard looked shocked and couldn't help clapping.
"Miss Shen is indeed different. Chinese metaphysics is indeed amazing!"
It would have been fine if he didn't clap his hands, but as soon as he clapped his hands, the abscesses in the palms of his hands burst.
Fortunately, Shen Wan dodged quickly enough, otherwise he would have been splashed with pus.
Richard smiled and said, "The person outside is my personal assistant Henry. After I was cursed, my appearance changed and I can't be in public. I have to let him take my place."
“Miss Shen is really amazing, no one knows this secret except Henry and the people closest to me.”
"You actually saw through this secret."
Richard stared at her with eyes full of ambiguous meanings.
Soon, Henry came back with something.
Henry was a little shocked to learn that Shen Wan already knew the secret, but he didn't say much and cut off the boss's clothes on his back as she requested.
