The deputy chairman was of the opinion that Chairman Wang was lying about this mysterious master. He was simply trying to make himself look good. If he genuinely had a master, it was impossible for the deputy chairman to miss the guy during all this while.

After all, he had known Chairman Wang for decades.

The deputy chairman did not say his thoughts out loud. He simply responded. “Since Chairman Wang has asked a peerless doctor to help, just wait for his call.”

Fu Cheng nodded.

The deputy chairman placed his hands behind his back. He contemplated briefly before he spoke again. “Tell me when you hear back from Chairman Wang. I am very curious about this friend of his.”

“Yes, Master,” acknowledged Fu Cheng.

After school, Huo Yao finally took out her phone and checked it. She saw Chairman Wang’s text message and looked at the photo he had sent.

Before long, she replied to Chairman Wang: [Things look bad judging from the medical report.]

Chairman Wang had yet to reach the airport. He found it troublesome to send text messages, so he decided to send Huo Yao an audio message instead: [Can he be cured?]

Huo Yao pondered and replied: [Probably. I can only know for sure after examining his pulse.]

Chairman Wang could not help feeling impressed when he saw Huo Yao’s positive answer.

Although she had responded in an uncertain tone, he was certain that there was a 60% chance of success.

Chairman Wang quickly sent another message: [The patient is an association member’s family friend. Huo Yao, do you think you can help?]

Huo Yao raised her brow and replied: [My fees don’t come cheap.]

Chairman Wang recalled Fu Cheng mentioning that the patient was from the Song family, so he answered: [It’s okay. The patient is from a good family. I am sure they can afford it.]

Huo Yao sent him an okay emoticon.

Chairman Wang said: [In that case, I will get in touch with him and get him to contact you directly.]

After Wang sent the audio message, he called up Fu Cheng and gave him Huo Yao’s number.

…

Fu Cheng promptly called Huo Yao after hearing back from Chairman Wang.

Considering Old Master Song’s condition, he needed treatment as soon as possible. Even the slightest delay could cause irreparable damage.

The moment someone answered the phone, Fu Cheng introduced himself. When he heard a young woman answer the phone, he was astonished.

He promptly pulled his phone from his ear to check the number on the screen. Did he dial wrongly?

Fu Cheng had pressed the number sent by Chairman Wang directly, so he could not have gotten it wrong. He paused for a second and said courteously, “I am looking for the peerless doctor, Dr. Huo?”

Huo Yao answered mildly as she put away her books. “Speaking.”

Fu Cheng was stunned when he heard her voice. If the doctor was older, he would never have felt that way. Since she was young and even a woman, it was hard for him to believe she was a peerless physician.

After a brief silence, Fu Cheng asked. “Did Chairman Wang tell you about the patient’s condition?”

Huo Yao picked up her backpack and slung it over her shoulder casually. She simply said, “Why don’t you just give me the address? I will go over and see the patient immediately.”

Although Fu Cheng did not believe that a young woman was capable of curing the patient, she came at the recommendation of Chairman Wang. He had no choice but to accept her help since he was desperate. He promptly said, “He’s at the First People’s Hospital.”

Fu Cheng paused before he added. “Why don’t you send me your address? I can come and pick you up.”

This way, Fu Cheng would have the chance to observe the mysterious doctor and stop her before she turned him into a laughing stock at the hospital.
