Peerless Little Immortal Doctor

Chapter 190: Just for One Person



In the room, Xia Liu slowly lowered his hands, which had been clasped in front of his chest.

This was Huang Xue's room.

When he had returned here a moment ago, he had struggled with Huang Xue for a while, severely weakening his body, which led him to start "Inhaling Breath" to recover his spirit.

As he regained strength, the Fairy Huang Xue had disappeared without a trace.

Seeing Xia Liu emerge from the room, the two servants waiting at the door hurried to greet him.

"Where is your young mistress?" he asked.

"The young mistress left quite early; she asked us to inform you to head to Huanglong Hall after you've rested well."

"Huanglong Hall? What on earth is that?" Xia Liu couldn't help but wonder.

The decor of the Huang Family Estate was quite normal, but the name was somewhat difficult to wait for with reverence.

Following the explanation from the two servants, Xia Liu finally understood.

It turned out that the Huang Family was hosting a celebration feast tonight, and the venue was none other than Huanglong Hall.

After understanding, Xia Liu followed the two servants to the venue.

Today, Huanglong Hall was indeed overcrowded, with over a dozen banquet tables set up in the vast hall.

The entrance was the same, with additional wine and dance parties making it an extraordinarily lively scene.

Furthermore, the tables in both the hall and the entrance were already filled with guests.

They all sat upright, not daring to touch the dishes on the table or even the wine.

"Father, shall we start first?" Below the hall, Huang Shijie cast his eyes around the room, then meekly suggested to Huang Zhongcai.

So many people were currently waiting foolishly for someone whose recovery time was unknown.

If that person didn't wake up until tomorrow, would they really need to keep watch all night?

"Divine Doctor Xia hasn't arrived yet, what's the rush? Are you that hungry? Go eat some steamed buns in the kitchen," Huang Zhongcai couldn't help but glance at Huang Shijie.

Huang Zhongcai had felt extremely invigorated since waking up, as if he had become ten years younger.

Moreover, after learning about Xia Liu's situation from Song Lingzhen, his interest in the young man who had cured him grew even more.

"Father, listen to me, this Divine Doctor Xia is actually a little farmer from some village, and he and Xue'er have some..."

"What! Divine Doctor Xia is also a farmer! What is Xue'er's relationship with him?" Upon hearing his son speak, Huang Zhongcai became excited again.

"Dad, I'm telling you, it seems like Xue'er and Divine Doctor Xia are boyfriend and girlfriend," Yang Yuehua said with a rejoicing smile.

"Is that true?"

"It's not confirmed yet, but there seems to be some indication of that," Huang Shijie said with a bitter tone.

If Xia Liu was indeed his daughter's boyfriend, he would not be very receptive.

After all, Xia Liu was just a farmer, and aside from resolving his father's issue with the Poison Insects, he was otherwise worthless.

If his father were no longer around, the family could fall into crisis again.

"Very good! Very good! Where is Xue'er? I need to ask her opinion; if it's true, we can hold their wedding tomorrow!" Huang Zhongcai exclaimed excitedly, clapping his hands.

"Zhongcai, you're rushing things. The young ones have their own thoughts; we can't force them," Song Lingzhen chided, seeing Huang Zhongcai so thrilled.

"Haha, I got ahead of myself," Huang Zhongcai admitted.

Listening to the conversation between his father and Song Lingzhen, Huang Shijie could only force a bitter smile.

Xia Liu was merely a farmer; if his daughter married him, it would bring no benefit to the family.

He had only this one daughter, and whoever she married in the future must be someone who could help the family!

While Song Lingzhen and Huang Zhongcai were conversing, Xia Liu had already arrived at the entrance.

His arrival instantly drew all eyes to him.

Xia Liu also scanned the crowd, noticing that no one had touched anything on their tables.

It looked as though they were waiting for someone, but wasn't Huang Zhongcai seated inside?

Could it be that he was waiting for me...

"Divine Doctor Xia! You have finally arrived!" Upon seeing Xia Liu enter, Huang Zhongcai personally came out to greet him.

"Old Master Huang, just call me Xia Liu. How has your health been recovering?" Xia Liu was very familiar and responded to Huang Zhongcai with equal enthusiasm.

This old guy was Huang Xue's grandfather, so he certainly couldn't afford to give him any attitude.

"Hahaha, your medical skills are the best in the world. After I woke up, I could even run."

"That's good to hear, that's good to hear."

Following that, Xia Liu was pulled over by Huang Zhongcai to sit next to him.

This seat had originally been Huang Shijie's, and as he left, his eyes were filled with resentment.

It was only after Xia Liu arrived that the banquet truly began.

"Divine Doctor Xia, according to the rules of the Divine Doctor event, you are entitled to fifty million Huaxia currency," Huang Shijie said, no longer able to listen to the conversation between his father and Xia Liu.

His father was practically pushing his granddaughter onto a blazing bed of coals.

As Huang Shijie announced the Divine Doctor event's prize money, all the doctors present swallowed their saliva.

"Hm? Only fifty million? Shijie, am I only worth fifty million to you?" Huang Zhongcai was puzzled.

If he had been conscious before, he would have hanged this son and given him a beating if he hadn't complied.

"No, Father, you misunderstand, it's just an event."

"I heard about it, but you can't set the price so low. Later, transfer fifty billion to Xia Liu," Huang Zhongcai said nonchalantly.

At his words, Huang Shijie almost spat out the wine in his mouth.

Fifty billion!

The family's available liquid assets didn't even add up to ten billion.

The fifty billion was nearly a tenth of the entire family enterprise!

Not only Huang Zhongcai, but everyone present was shocked by his words. Fifty million turned into fifty billion—what audacity!

If one could get fifty billion, being a winner in life would be an understatement!

That amount of money could buy half a city!

Everyone looked at Xia Liu with envy.

If Xia Liu accepted, the young man would instantly become a billionaire!

"Father, can we discuss this matter?" Huang Shitao couldn't listen any longer. To directly give one-tenth of the family fortune to an outsider was unbearable for an heir.

"No, if there aren't fifty billion, sell a few companies and give Xia Liu a hundred billion."

"Wow! A hundred billion!" Everyone except for the Huang family members was scared stiff.

"Dad, let's give the fifty billion, let's give fifty billion!" Huang Shijie was now on the verge of tears but dared not cry.

If they did not agree soon, the family fortune could lose two shares of its holdings.

Huang Zhongcai was infamously stubborn; no one in the Huang family could change what he decided.

"Everyone, calm down!" At this moment, Xia Liu spoke.

All eyes were on him, wanting to see if he would accept the money.

"I will not take a single cent. I came here to treat Old Master Huang for just one person!"

What the fuck!

"Not take a single penny!"

"Am I dreaming?"

"That's fifty billion! If he held on, he could have gotten a hundred billion!"

Xia Liu's words had stunned everyone present.

At this point, Huang Shijie felt a mix of joy and anger. Although no money had to be given, this man's ambition was even greater!
