Mu Ting was silent for a moment. She didn’t have a close relationship with Xu Jing, but because they happened to be in the same university circle, they had more interactions with one another.
After getting to know Xu Jing’s wife, she became more fond of her and as this was for her sake, she said, “Okay, I can help you, but I want to remind you that I am not familiar with Su Jing. He may not give me any face. So after you meet him, it’s best to apologize sincerely, don’t be careless, and you may still get his forgiveness.”
“I understand, I understand.” Xu Jing breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Xu Jing’s words.
In the afternoon, Xu Jing, his wife, and Mu Ting came to Kangfeng Hospital. They did not pay the one million upfront, but they showed their identity as a university classmate of Su Jing, and they were given reception.
Then, they were taken to the supreme VIP area, where Su Jing personally greeted them.
“Master Su, I don’t see you for more than ten days and you end up becoming a miracle doctor.” Mu Ting smiled as she spoke.
“You flatter me, I can’t accept being called a Miracle Doctor.” Su Jing said with a smile on his face.
“This Miracle Doctor title wasn’t appointed by me, but by the people, you have no choice but to accept it” Mu Ting smiled and then pointed to Xu Jing and his wife, saying, “Let me introduce them. This is our university classmate Xu Jing, and this is his wife, Mengmeng.”
“Hello, Mr. Su,” Mengmeng extended her hand with a polite smile, and Su Jing shook hands with her. Xu Jing’s smile was slightly stiff, and he also extended his hand, but Su Jing did not shake hands with him.
Xu Jing’s hand was left hanging in mid-air, and the atmosphere became awkward but Mengmeng quickly pushed Xu Jing’s shoulder with hers and gave him a look.
“Su Jing, um…” Xu Jing smiled awkwardly. He had wanted to play dumb, thinking that Su Jing might not know about the Weibo post he had made. But seeing Su Jing’s current attitude, he was afraid that Su Jing already knew everything he had said.
It seemed that he had to apologize here. “Su Jing, previously, I analyzed the situation from a medical perspective, but I never expected that your medical skills would be world-class, so I made a wrong judgment and caused some negative effects on your image. I’m truly sorry for that. However, now that the truth is revealed and you have proven yourself as a Miracle Doctor without any peers so you shouldn’t have taken any loss. Let’s just forget about the past and move forward. You have taught me a great lesson, and you have also given Chinese medicine a good reputation. The entire world’s medical field is amazed by you.”
Xu Jing spoke eloquently and sounded polite. However, Mu Ting frowned when she heard him. She had asked Xu Jing to be sincere and not to be careless, but it seemed that Xu Jing did not take her words to heart.
…
Su Jing’s face remained calm as he listened quietly to Xu Jing. Of course, he knew about Xu Jing’s previous weibo post.
Even if he didn’t know, he could sense Xu Jing’s spiritual fluctuations directly through his spiritual force. He could tell that Xu Jing wasn’t sincere, so how could he deceive Su Jing?
However, Su Jing couldn’t be bothered to argue with him. He asked, “After saying so much, what do you really want to tell me? Can you just get to the point.”
Xu Jing smiled awkwardly and said, “Um… I hope you can let bygones be bygones. After all, it was just a minor friction and yu didn’t suffer anything. And as doctors, we should separate personal grudges from treating and saving out patients.”
“So what?” Su Jing asked with the same dull expression on his face.
“This is my wife. She has been infertile for almost two years now. We have went to all the doctors that we can and we have nothing to show for it. I heard that you cured a middle-aged woman who had been infertile for very long time and she is also almost forty years old. So my wife’s condition should also be curable with the same treatment, right?” Xu Jing said.
“It should be curable,” Su Jing nodded hs head upon hearing Xu Jing’s words.
“That’s great. Thank you, Dr. Su,” Mengmeng was overjoyed, and Xu Jing’s eyes lit up too.
“However, this treatment would be expensive so before the treatment, you need to pay the fee first. The treatment fee is about Ten Million Yuan,” Su Jing said.
“This…” Both Xu Jing and Mengmeng’s expressions changed drastically, and Xu Jing said with an anxious expression on his face, “Dr. Su, this is too expensive.”
“The middle-aged woman I treated before also payed 10 Million Yuan and this is also the standard price.” Su Jing said.
“Dr. Su, could you please give us a discount considering we were classmates? We can only gather around One Million Yuan and as doctors, shouldn’t it be our duty to save lives and heal the wounded? Charging such a high fee is not ethical, is it?” Xu Jing said.
“Do you think we know each other that well, I don’t remember knowing you all that much. Other than you previously trashing me on Weibo? We don’t seem to have any other connection, do we? I’m willing to let bygones be bygones, but you expect me to lower the price by 9 Million just because you say so? Do you think you have the authority to decide whether my fees are legal or not?” Su Jing replied calmly, without giving an inch.
“Doctor Su…” Mengmeng looked to Su Jing for help, but seeing Su Jing’s old expression, she didn’t know how to ask for anything.
She regretted not slapping Xu Jing when he tried to make things difficult for Su Jing earlier. If only she had done something, then maybe Su Jing would have been more accommodating due to their college alumni relationship.
“Xiao Ting.” Mengmeng looked at Mu Ting with a pleading expression on her face after looking at Su Jing.
“Alas!” Faced with Mengmeng’s pleading look, Mu Ting shook her head with a helpless expression on her face. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to help her, but she knew that there was no use in saying anything now, especially given Su Jing’s attitude.
Unless someone very important to Su Jing came forward to speak on Xu Jing’s behalf, it was unlikely that Su Jing would change his mind.
The emotional entanglement between Wang Yan and Su Jing had taught her one thing: Su Jing held grudges and he held them for a very long time.
