Chapter 704 - Trying To Exterminate The Huo Family? (1)
Gu Qingyao lowered her eyes. “I’m very sorry, sir. But… I’m afraid that’s not possible!”
The man opposite her was disappointed. Although he was mentally prepared for her answer, Gu Qingyao’s instant refusal still upset him.
What could he do!
He was a billionaire. Although he was so ill, numerous women were still flinging themselves at him. A pity that this young girl had no designs on him. He found this hard to accept.
She was so pretty and such a talented doctor. She was also the Qiao family’s beloved granddaughter and the heiress of Qiao’s Jewelry.
Although the Qiao family was far inferior to his, this girl sitting before him was his only hope. He really could not bear to harm her.
“I had to deal with many family matters recently. I really can’t rest more. Miss Gu, give me a definite answer. How sure are you that you can treat me?”
The girl’s mouth tightened. She had yet to give him a definite answer.
Gu Qingyao glanced at him and said, “I can guarantee you will live for another twenty years.”
The man was shocked!
Twenty years!
“Are you sure, Miss Gu?”
Gu Qingyao nodded. “I’m sure. But you must follow my instructions. Your health was severely damaged when you were young, and it is fragile. Now I can guarantee that you will live. But recovery will be difficult!
“If you would follow my instructions, you may recover!”
“How long will that take?” The man was so excited he started to tremble all over.
“Three years at least, but no more than five years!” Gu Qingyao said.
The man was astonished by this time frame.
Gu Qingyao continued, “Of course, if you cannot follow my instructions, then your recovery will be delayed.
“Actually… Although you may have to make some sacrifices now, as long as your foundation is sound, when you recover your health, you can pour all your efforts into your work. With your ability, I’m sure that you can still have whatever you want then.”
The man was startled, as if he had not expected Gu Qingyao to say something like that.
Gu Qingyao was aware of what he had been through. She sighed and said patiently, “Sir, considering your status, your life should be your priority. Even if you lose everything you have now, as long as you live, you can get it back later. Why insist on clinging on to what you have now?”
This fellow was clearly exceptionally competent, and he came from a noble family. He had such a good foundation, but he had turned himself into a work machine. He was really… dedicated to his work!
The man bowed his head. His expression was difficult to read!
Gu Qingyao continued. “To be honest, I can treat you. I did not give you a straight answer for so long because you are a very disobedient patient!”
There was silence!
The old steward wiped his sweat. This girl was too bold. No one had dared to call Sir disobedient in years.
The man was shocked, then he smiled.
“Miss Gu is saying that my priorities are wrong. In the future, I will do my best to cooperate with Miss Gu during my treatment. Please take good care of me, Miss Gu.”
Gu Qingyao smiled. “It’s good that you’ve straightened out your thinking. Now I will adjust your medication. At the end of the year, you can ask a physician to give you a check-up. I think… by then, the rumors that you are infertile will be gone!”
