Xu Feibai slightly raised an eyebrow and said coldly, "So what do you want to do? As a collaborator, shouldn’t you make an effort? Last time with the Eye of the Creator, you already sabotaged one collaboration. It’s time for you to contribute."

"I can tell you plainly, for those infected with the Gu Worm, there’s no better solution other than humane destruction. The Gu Worm is not something everyone can cure," Lin Tian said coldly.

"Destruction?" Xu Feibai’s gaze flickered slightly, then he continued, "There will always be someone who steps up to solve the problem."

"Doctor, save me, save me, I don’t want to die yet, I’m still so young..." Liu Yuansi rushed forward, trying to grab Director Liang, but two staff members in protective suits stopped him, restraining him from behind.

The parasites in his body are contagious, how could the doctors let him get close?

"Disgraceful, truly disgraceful!" Zhao Xiangrong pointed at Liu Yuansi and the two young women, shouting angrily. If not for the fear of infection, he would have slapped Liu Yuansi a few times himself.

His own son and the two women, along with Liu Yuansi, having such a chaotic relationship and catching an illness because of it—if this news spread within their circle, the Zhao Family would become a laughingstock. Just thinking about it made him feel utterly humiliated, even shaming his ancestors.

Rich second-generation, wealthy men keeping mistresses, these are open secrets within their circle, silently understood by everyone. But when it causes a scandal, it becomes a joke to others.

Ten minutes later, Liu Yuansi and the two women were also sent to the isolation room by the doctors, right next to Zhao Weitao. The two could be considered "misguided brothers" now.

However, all three were carried in, not because they had fainted, but because their legs were too weak to walk.

"Director Liang, the test results are out. The three of them are also infected with the parasite, but not as severely as Zhao Weitao for now. The parasites inside Zhao Weitao have already begun secondary reproduction. If the number of parasites reaches its peak, his life will be at risk," Doctor Yao said, approaching with the test results in hand.

"What did you say? My son’s life is at risk?" Zhao Xiangrong was shocked, rushing forward to snatch the test results. Doctor Yao naturally wouldn’t hand them over and tucked them behind him, "These are other patients’ test reports. You have no right to see them."

Zhao Xiangyuan was taken aback, then looked at Doctor Yao with a strange expression, "Ah, you’re making things difficult for me because of what just happened, aren’t you? Is that how a doctor should act, getting back at someone just because a family member scolded you?"

"Lin Tian, what just happened?" Xiao Manxuan asked curiously.

"Someone from Zhao Xiangyuan’s side hit Director Liang, the old doctor..." Lin Tian recounted what happened, actually admiring Zhao Xiangyuan’s audacity. Director Liang, such an old man, was beaten, and yet it was downplayed as just a few scoldings. A cunning businessman can indeed turn black into white.

"This... this is too heartless," Xiao Manxuan was speechless, Qiao Xiaoyi and Mu Binglan just shook their heads.

"Mr. Zhao, Doctor Yao did nothing wrong. We can’t show you someone else’s test reports," Director Liang said truthfully, as this elderly doctor had always been factual and honest.

Zhao Xiangyuan pointed at Director Liang, then at Doctor Yao, looking furious, "You’re student and teacher; of course, you’ll defend each other. Fine, fine, I’m transferring hospitals. I’d rather leave than stay here and be retaliated against by you!"

"Mr. Zhao, please mind your words. You are the head of a great family. Don’t you think it’s undignified to twist the truth like this in front of your children?" Doctor Liang said sternly. As a doctor, he could consider the patients, but he also had his stance. Of course, he had to argue back when being slandered.

The children he referred to were naturally Lin Tian and the others. In the eyes of an old man, the young people are all viewed as children.

"I’m not going to argue with you. Right now, I want to transfer my son to Xinghai Hospital. I don’t trust your medical skills," Zhao Xiangyuan knew he had no case, especially concerning his son’s messy relationships. Continuing to argue would only embarrass himself, so he straightforwardly expressed his desire to transfer hospitals.

It’s very uncomfortable for any doctor to have their skills questioned to their face, and Director Liang was no exception. His expression also turned rather unpleasant.

"Mr. Zhao, allow me to say another word," He Jianhua interjected once more. Seeing Zhao Xiangyuan remain silent, he continued, "Under the current circumstances, a transfer would not benefit the patient’s treatment. This is the first point. Secondly, Jinghua University has a comprehensive understanding of this parasite, which is advantageous for treatment."

"Thirdly, Elder Jiang and Dean Miao from Xinghai Hospital are both guests at Jinghua University, so even if you transfer to Xinghai Hospital, you won’t be able to book them," He Jianhua seemed to see through Zhao Xiangyuan’s thoughts, each sentence hitting the mark.

Especially the last sentence, which made Zhao Xiangyuan’s expression change. He squinted slightly, "Professor He, you’re not lying to me? Elder Jiang and Dean Miao are both at Jinghua University?"

"Of course I’m not lying to you. However, my previous words were just suggestions, made with the patient’s interest in mind. If you insist on transferring, I believe the hospital will respect your decision and, after making the necessary arrangements, assist you with the transfer," Professor He said calmly.

Zhao Xiangyuan’s expression became awkward, losing the arrogant demeanor he had upon arrival. He awkwardly said, "Ahem, well... it’s not that I have to transfer. If Elder Jiang can personally treat here, that would also be acceptable."

"A cunning businessman is truly proficient at shifting positions with the wind," Mu Binglan said disdainfully.

"Brother Lin, is Elder Jiang’s medical skill very formidable?" Qiao Xiaoyi asked curiously. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Lin Tian and Xiao Manxuan exchanged a look, casually replying, "If you’re talking about her, then indeed, very formidable."

"From your expression, it seems like you know Elder Jiang? I heard Elder Jiang is a top expert at Xinghai Hospital, a titan in the medical world," He Xiaofei said suspiciously, very distrustful of Lin Tian’s words.

She knew Lin Tian had some medical skills, but claiming to know a medical titan like Elder Jiang sounded dubious. It was like an average stockholder claiming to be friends with a stock market guru, utterly unbelievable. Lin Tian just shrugged, neither confirming nor denying, while Xiao Manxuan smiled without speaking.

"If I have not miscalculated the time, Elder Jiang and Dean Miao should be arriving soon," He Jianhua checked his watch suddenly said.

His words surprised everyone, including Lin Tian, as well as Director Liang, Doctor Yao, and several other doctors. Lin Tian was taken aback, while the doctors were pleasantly surprised and somewhat excited—it was a titan of the medical world, a role model revered by doctors.

Just after Professor He finished speaking, the elevator chimed, the doors opened, and people walked out.

Lin Tian immediately recognized the two people at the forefront—Jiang Xiu Ying and Dean Miao. Elder Jiang, needless to say, was the master of his senior sister, half a Pharmacist; and Dean Miao, with whom he had once collaborated in Xikou City.
