Chapter 746: Chapter 746: Comparing Connections
Everyone was now extremely anxious!
Their biggest fear was that when Sister Song and her husband finally dug out the little baby, he would already be dead.
After all, a few months old baby being “buried alive” for a full five minutes is extremely dangerous.
‘If a life is lost, we can handle it with our Chu Family’s influence in Ma City. But after this incident, I won’t allow Tingting to associate with this guy.’ A thought flashed quickly through Father Chu’s mind.
Finally!
Sister Song and her husband dug out the little baby.
...
They saw!
The little guy was still breathing, and furthermore!
His body and face were no longer uniformly red, but had grown a faint layer of — skin!
This layer of skin was very tender, but without a doubt, the baby was no longer a “skinless baby”!
He was cured!
He had grown skin!
Boom~~~~!!!!!!
There was an uproar among the onlookers!
This expensive and incurable disease, that they had spent over a million seeking remedies, was effortlessly cured by the young man in front of them without spending a dime. At most it had cost five kilos of white rice!
“I said that it wouldn’t cost a penny to cure the child’s disease. You can even take this rice back home, wash it and cook it. It’s hygienic.” Huang Xiaolong chuckled.
Sister Song and her husband, holding their precious son tightly, silently cried their eyes out. Their hearts were full of excitement, but there were no words to be spoken!

“What on earth is going on?” Father Chu felt like he had been struck by thunder, the scene unfolding in front of his eyes simply knocked his worldview for six! He really wanted to know how Huang Xiaolong could have healed the child’s severe illness. This was not medicine! Father Chu knew this was not as simple as medical skills.
“Little Long, I’m really curious, what happened?” Chu Tingting stared at Huang Xiaolong with unblinking eyes.
Huang Xiaolong smiled and explained slowly, “A skinless condition is a type of skin disease. And most skin diseases, especially infant skin diseases, are mostly due to problems with the lungs.”
“In the five elements, the lungs are associated with metal. This baby was born with a congenital lack of ‘metal energy’, hence he suffered from the bizarre skinless disease.”
“Why was he born lacking the ‘metal energy’? It’s because he was born at sea. In other words, he was born without grounding energy.”
“Metal generates water, water generates wood, wood generates fire, fire generates earth, and earth generates metal. The baby was lacking the earth energy when he was born, thus there was a deficiency in earth among the five elements, which effectively means no earth to generate metal. With no metal energy in the lungs, he developed serious skin diseases.”
“Of course, the probability of getting this disease is very small, he was just unlucky.”
“Why did I bury him in a pit of rice? Because rice is a grain and in the five elements, it belongs to earth.”
“After the baby was replenished with earth energy, the lungs naturally generated metal energy. This quickly healed his skin condition.”
Having said this, Huang Xiaolong didn’t wait for Sister Song and her husband to thank him, he turned and left, looking extremely nonchalant.
Suddenly, behind him —
Clap Clap~~ Clap Clap~ Clap Clap Clap~~~!!!!
The sound of applause! Cheers!
“Divine Doctor! Divine Doctor! Divine Doctor! Divine Doctor!”
…
“Good! Good! I was wrong about him!” Father Chu’s eyes brightened. “Tingting, your boyfriend is talented! He has a promising future! I take back what I said about him! I can apologize to him! Yes! Tingting, your vision was right!”
“I believe he does not need your apology. Nor does he need your approval.” Chu Tingting was filled with pride from head to toe, every cell of her!
Little Long was so awesome, easily subduing Father Chu, even all the homeowners, security guards, property managers in the community were overwhelmed by him!
Father Chu smiled and said to Mother Chu, “As the saying goes, be a good minister if not, be a good doctor, medical skills are heavenly studies. Tingting finding such a talent in medicine outshines marrying into a wealthy family and is even more honorable!”
“Pfft~~ Most importantly, both parties reciprocate the love. You initially looked down upon him.” Mother Chu was also very pleased.
“Nobody is perfect.” Father Chu gave a sheepish smile and hugged Mother Chu’s waist.
At the Chu house.
Mother Chu prepared a dinner.
Huang Xiaolong noticed a drastic change in the attitudes of Chu Tingting’s parents towards him.
However, Huang Xiaolong didn’t make a big fuss about it, nor did he say much.
During the meal, Father Chu mentioned that Old Master Chu’s eightieth birthday would be in 2 days.
Old Master Chu’s eightieth birthday will be divided into two parts, the first part is a grand banquet held in Ma City. The family members all gathered, with relatives and friends widely invited to celebrate Old Master Chu’s birthday.
The second part would be the Chu family, returning to Chu Family Village, the origin of the Chu family, to celebrate with the villagers.
“Two days later?” Huang Xiaolong smiled imperceptibly.
In two days, it will also be Jing Xiaoxi’s 22nd birthday, at that time, the Taoist who promised to marry Jing Xiaoxi would make his grand appearance!
‘It will be lively in two days.’ A playful smile appeared at the corner of Huang Xiaolong’s mouth.
Father Chu said a lot more.
The general meaning was that for Old Master Chu’s eightieth birthday, all members of the Chu family would come back, the second generation, the third generation, all gathered.
This inevitably led to comparisons.
Compare what?
On one hand, they compare their own social status and achievements, while on the other hand, they compare connections!
This is normal, Huaxia is a society of relationships, whether in politics, or in the business field, or even in daily life, connections are particularly important.
For instance, a person with no achievements, if he has good connections in society, he, too, will receive respect from others.
The so-called comparison of connections, was the Chu family descendants inviting their friends to celebrate Old Master Chu’s birthday, to see who could invite friends with higher status, making themselves more prominent.
Father Chu sighed, “I’m a rather stubborn person, I don’t play up for every occasion, unlike other members of the family who are adept at taking advantage of all sides. Therefore, my connections are weaker. Every year when the family holds a grand event, I am ridiculed. But, it doesn’t matter anymore.”
Father Chu looked at Chu Tingting and Huang Xiaolong, “You are both young, Tingting you’ve been teaching at Binhai University for a short time so it’s probably impossible for you to befriend those with significant social statuses. You probably don’t have many connections.”
“Little Long, although you are an extraordinary person with unparalleled medical skills, I see your age is smaller than Tingting’s, and your foundation is shallow. I have no expectations of you having any connections. But your future is boundless, later on, you’ll certainly make connections with powerful people.”
“So, during Old Master’s birthday, restrain yourselves in the competition of connections. There will be humiliations, you will be scorned. But the days to come are long, momentary grievances don’t count. When you succeed later on, the connection will come naturally and it will be time to hit back with a strong counterattack!”
“I don’t have many connections.” Chu Tingting curled her lip.
She was a lecturer at Binhai University, those she knew were, after all, just some teachers. Even if she invited these colleagues to Ma City, it wouldn’t count as prominent social connections.
She would definitely be ridiculed then.
“Comparing connections? That sounds interesting.” Huang Xiaolong’s face showed a somewhat amused expression.
