Chapter 2407: Chapter 2399: An Explanation
Teacher Guan was very agitated, while Beauty Lin felt helpless: Come on, I can’t decide on something like this either.
She couldn’t even make any excessive demands on Luohua due to this small "accident"; otherwise, Elder Feng would definitely see it as a test or provocation—why so impatient? Didn’t I say to wait for a while?
The whole situation felt a bit like dark humor.
They had been constantly testing the limits of Feng Jun, thinking it was a very important matter, but when something actually happened, they were stunned to realize they were the boy who cried wolf, wanting to seek help but not knowing how to explain.
Regardless, Teacher Guan’s strong aura had a significant impact on people, and everyone could understand his mood—after all, they’re doctors and have seen a lot of life and death situations. You encountered something bad, so we’ll give you a break.
No one spoke, and Beauty Lin hesitated for a moment before timidly saying, "I will try to communicate, but I can’t guarantee how the communication will go."
"I understand," Professor Guan nodded impatiently.
He was fifty-eight years old, and he understood everything in his heart, but his small aunt’s accident made him lose his composure, "Please contact Director Lin as soon as possible, let me know what the conditions are... you’ve helped me this time, and I will definitely reward you."
Talking like this in front of so many people? Beauty Lin was a bit fed up, thinking, do I really need your little reward?
However, affected by the other’s irritable aura, she finally nodded sympathetically, "I don’t expect any reward; to be honest, your little reward doesn’t mean anything to me, let alone to those much better than me... I’ll ask for you."
The next moment, a consciousness suddenly appeared in her mind, "No need to ask. Tell him, I do have the nanobots and can remove blood clots from a stroke. Just ask him what he plans to offer as a medical fee."
Feng Jun’s use of Divine Sense had become a habit, and notifying Luohua’s people this way was also a tradition.
But Beauty Lin had never been subjected to such a shock before, and she immediately leaped up, exclaiming, "A ghost!"
According to people who recalled later, she jumped at least three and a half meters high, good enough to compete in the NBA dunk contest.
Her excessive reaction startled everyone at the scene, and they all stared at her in amazement.
Beauty Lin came to her senses, noticed the dumbfounded eyes on her, and immediately turned and left.
Explanation? Not happening. If I don’t say anything, don’t ask!
But she was nervous, and after stepping outside, she fumbled for her mobile phone, intending to make a call, but the voice rang again in her mind, "No need to call. I can solve this problem for him. I just want to know why I should help him?"
"Please give me a reason!"
Solving a stroke with nanobots was really not an issue, and in the Insect World, a stroke was no big deal—nanobots were more focused on repairing organs and nerves.
Feng Jun didn’t mind lending a hand for minor assistance, but the help needed this time clearly exceeded a "small favor", so he had to receive something in return.
Beauty Lin steadied herself, finally accepting that Feng Jun was communicating with her this way. After a brief thought, she understood and softly asked, "So it’s essentially about receiving something symbolic in return, right?"
"Of course," Feng Jun’s thought appeared in her mind again, though she could feel the pride, "I just don’t want to be disturbed at random; frankly speaking, what could he possibly offer that I would value?"
"You really... have a strong presence," Beauty Lin said, shaking her head with a wry smile, "Alright, I’ll go tell him."
She walked to the door and gestured to Professor Guan, "Hey... Teacher Guan, can you come out for a moment?"
Professor Guan quickly came out, and the others exchanged glances but decided not to follow.
In the hallway, Professor Guan looked eagerly at Director Lin, "Is it good news?"
"Sort of," Beauty Lin nodded, "Acts of filial piety should be encouraged, and using nanobots to treat vascular embolism is entirely valid. Now there’s only one issue left... You disrupted someone’s plans. What’s your explanation for that?"
Explanation? Professor Guan raised his eyebrows, "It could be considered human experimentation. My little aunt is a volunteer, and medical equipment needs a lot of experimental data to go on the market. An 88-year-old stroke patient... that’s persuasive."
"You’ve misunderstood me," Beauty Lin shook her head with a wry smile, "Do you think this equipment can’t go on the market? Or do you think they are that eager to go public?"
Then she turned her head towards the Cancer Care Center, raised her smooth chin, and asked meaningfully, "That’s a place to treat cancer, yet it’s called a care center. Do you think they got the name wrong?"
Professor Guan was actually a smart person, but he was usually too lazy to think about unrelated matters. After considering it, he probed, "Actually... they don’t care about reputation or certifications?"
"Correct," Beauty Lin nodded affirmatively, "If they were interested, it wouldn’t be hard for Director Yang to take the lead and handle some certifications, don’t you think?"
"You might be wrong there," Professor Guan shook his head, earnestly stating, "Director Yang doesn’t have much influence in the medical and health field. Her base isn’t here... Even if she had strong influence, related certifications are extremely strict."
He paused for a moment and then solemnly said, "This should be that Luohua has mastered advanced cancer treatment methods but doesn’t want to publicize them widely, so they’ve set up a care center. After all, the treatment results speak for themselves, and the name doesn’t affect their income."
"Making money," Beauty Lin frowned, expressing her displeasure, "I hope Teacher Guan doesn’t see things so superficially!"
You call me superficial? Professor Guan raised his eyebrows in surprise; it’s really been a long time since someone spoke to him like this.
But considering that he still needed help from Luohua, he could only nod grudgingly, "Alright, I was being reckless. I only heard that the fees they charge are very high, and it’s said that the caregivers here earn a million a year."
"They’ve lowered the fees twice," Beauty Lin helplessly looked at him, "The truth is... Luohua isn’t short of money. Setting up such a care center is just fulfilling their social responsibility. You really should change your preconceived notions."
She didn’t have to explain this much to him, but she was very sure that their conversation was definitely being monitored by Feng Jun, so she felt compelled to sing Luohua’s praises.
Social responsibility, is it? Professor Guan really didn’t want to offend Luohua, but this tune felt a bit too high. Even he would only dare to speak of a "benevolent healer", so claiming to be making money while presenting so brightly?
He didn’t mean to target Luohua; on the contrary, he greatly admired Luohua’s cancer treatment capabilities, but Director Lin’s explanation was a bit much for him, "Is Luohua really that rich?"
"Of course," Beauty Lin responded very assertively, "You don’t have to consider topics like the world’s richest; those billionaires aren’t even fit to carry Luohua’s shoes. However, some information, you understand why... it’s inconvenient to disclose."
"Got it," Professor Guan nodded readily, but digesting the information took him about ten seconds—so the world’s richest aren’t even fit to carry Luohua’s shoes? Do they have some misunderstanding about the world’s richest?
The next moment, he couldn’t help but ask, "If Luohua isn’t short of money, why don’t they announce their cancer care... cancer treatment plans?"
"Because those plans can’t be learned by others," Beauty Lin and her team had been stationed next to the care center for a while, thoroughly understanding Luohua’s cancer treatment plans, and found nothing that could be learned, leading to this conclusion.
She already knew that Luohua’s people were Daoist Practitioners, and the methods they used should belong to Daoist practices.
Then she explained seriously, "You see, they’re willing to share such advanced medical concepts. If the cancer treatment plans could be shared, I believe they wouldn’t keep it to themselves... Of course, you might have a different opinion."
Professor Guan was taken aback. If Luohua were indeed that wealthy, his assumptions were indeed narrow-minded.
So he shook his head, "I have no objections... what you said was that I disrupted their plans. I understand, but I’m not sure what kind of explanation I should provide."
Beauty Lin frowned slightly, "Let me put it this way, Luohua’s people are very busy, and their time can’t be measured in monetary terms. If they specifically take the time to address your issue... you need to show some sincerity. Does this make sense?"
"Got it. It’s about benefits," Professor Guan nodded. He considered himself principled but was not living in a vacuum and was well aware of such matters, so rather than getting angry, he became a bit curious.
"According to Director Lin, Luohua’s people have high moral standards and are not short of money... Would they even value what little money I have?"
"It may not necessarily be money," Beauty Lin replied, touching her forehead helplessly, "They want you to show some thoughtfulness... think of it this way: if anyone could randomly ask Luohua to do something, and they had to respond, how could they live?"
"Understood," Professor Guan nodded in realization, finally understanding, as he had encountered similar situations as an expert physician himself, "Rules need to be maintained, and if you want to make a request, you need to demonstrate sincerity to prevent setting a bad precedent... Is that right?"
"You finally get it," Beauty Lin exhaled, "It’s not about the value; it’s about sincerity."
Professor Guan nodded, frowning as he thought deeply. After a while, he expressed difficulty, "But all I have to offer is my medical skills, and they don’t need money."
