The temptation behind gentleness
Chapter 916 - 916
Su Fan nodded slightly but didn't take Zhang Haitao's words to heart.
Next, he went with Chen Mei to her residential area.
Chen Mei's family seems to be a middle-class family; without sufficient savings, they couldn't afford to treat her husband.
Su Fan drove while Chen Mei started to touch up her makeup in the car.
Although Chen Mei had been a bit disheveled in the hospital before, she was a pretty young woman.
At this moment, Chen Mei was dressed like a city career woman, looking a bit like a bank teller.
But exactly what she did for work, Su Fan didn't know.
She was already beautiful, and after touching up her makeup, she looked even more like a stunning young woman.
With Chen Mei giving directions, Su Fan quickly arrived at the bottom of Chen Mei's building.
This was a newly developed area, with many apartments still unsold.
Su Fan followed Chen Mei into the elevator.
Chen Mei's home was on the twenty-eighth floor, and upon entering, Su Fan noticed all the furniture was new.
In one room, Su Fan also saw a very weak middle-aged man.
The man looked critically ill, now unconscious and unresponsive.
When Su Fan saw this man, his eyes subtly narrowed.
In traditional Chinese medicine, it's important to observe, smell, question, and feel the pulse; a top-level Divine Doctor can tell a lot just by looking at a patient.
The man in the bed was not really ill; he was pretending!
Su Fan realized this was a setup, not just another worldly plight.
He kindly came out to check on patients and ended up in such a vexing situation.
However, Su Fan didn't expose the deception; he wanted to see what Chen Mei and her husband were really up to.
Indeed, when Su Fan prepared to examine the middle-aged man, Chen Mei stopped him.
"Divine Doctor Su, can we speak privately?"
Su Fan didn't refuse, nodding in agreement.
He had already realized Chen Mei wouldn't let him touch the patient.
His reputation wasn't undeserved.
If he made contact with the patient, he'd obviously know right away whether the middle-aged man was truly ill.
This time, Chen Mei led Su Fan directly into her bedroom.
After closing the bedroom door, Chen Mei knelt again, starting to cry and plead.
When they were at the hospital entrance, Su Fan didn't realize she was acting, but now how could he not know?
Still, he didn't expose her; instead, he continued watching Chen Mei's performance.
"Divine Doctor Su, my husband is actually beyond saving!"
Su Fan cooperatively helped Chen Mei up, saying, "Why do you say that?"
While cooperating with Chen Mei, he was also observing whether she had any accomplices.
Under his observation, only Chen Mei and her husband were in the room.
When he interacted with Chen Mei earlier, he sensed True Qi within her.
Chen Mei wasn't a Gang Qi Realm master but a Transform Qi Realm master, posing no threat to Su Fan.
He's not sure if Chen Mei's husband is a Gang Qi Realm master.
He didn't get close to the man; the man was completely concealing his aura.
But he managed to tentatively conclude that the man wasn't a Gang Qi Realm master, as he felt no sense of danger from him.
In the room, after Su Fan questioned, Chen Mei said, "Divine Doctor Su, my husband's illness has never been cured; many doctors say he has only a few days left."
"What he's most worried about is not leaving an heir, making the elders sad."
"But it's not my fault that he couldn't leave an heir; it's his problem."
"Divine Doctor Su is one of the finest in Yang City; I..."
"I want to ask Divine Doctor Su to lend me a seed!"
As her words fell, she unexpectedly stepped forward and embraced Su Fan.
