Chapter 723 - Hua Mingruis Kiss (1/2)

Seeing Qin Haodong entering the room, Hua Mingrui stood up in a hurry and said anxiously, “My uncle just called and said that my grandfather is seriously ill. I want you to treat him.”

“I thought it was something serious. It’s normal to be ill. As long as your grandfather is still alive, I can save him.”

Qin Haodong was confident in his ability to heal any sickness.

Hua Mingrui still looked worried and said, “But it’s not as simple as you think.”

Qin Haodong said in surprise, “It’s just a treatment, isn’t it? Why is it so complicated?”

Hua Mingrui sighed and said, “Grandpa has been ill for a few months. It was because of this that I returned to the capital after the exchange between Huaxia and Nihon.”

“At that time, I wanted to invite you over to treat my grandfather, but my uncle did not agree. He was very resistant to traditional Chinese medicine. Even if I invited you here, I’m afraid he would not let you treat my grandfather.”

“How could this be? Could it be that he wants to see your grandfather dying with his own eyes?”

“That’s not true. My uncle is also very filial. All these years, he has invited famous doctors from all over the world to treat my grandfather’s illness, but they are all western medicine doctors.”

Hua Mingrui asked Qin Haodong to sit down and then said, “There is a reason why my uncle hates traditional Chinese medicine. When he was a child, he had a fever. He was mistakenly diagnosed by a traditional Chinese medicine doctor and almost lost his life.”

“Since then, he no longer trusted traditional Chinese medicine and even hated it immensely. Whether it was himself or his family, they refused to see traditional Chinese medical doctors whenever they get sick.”

Qin Haodong said, “In fact, what he should hate is not traditional Chinese medicine, but that quack. There is no problem with traditional Chinese medicine, but in the medical skills of that person.”

“Quacks do not exist only in traditional Chinese medicine, but also in Western medicine. In terms of the number of medical accidents, traditional Chinese medicine has lesser incidents. We can’t boycott traditional Chinese medicine because of this.”

“You’re right. That’s true, but my uncle has this psychological fear due to the incident that happened when he was a child. I tried to persuade him several times, but he refused to change his mind.”

Qin Haodong said, “Then I have no other way to help you. Your grandfather is seriously ill now. If his family members don’t agree, I can’t treat him.”

Hua Mingrui said, “Grandpa loves me very much. Western medicine cannot do anything to treat his illness now. I can’t just watch him die, so I want you to go with me to see if he can be cured.”

Qin Haodong said, “I can go and see him, but if your uncle does not agree with you, I’m afraid it will be very difficult.”

“I’ve come up with a solution. If you pretend to be my boyfriend and come with me to visit my grandfather, my uncle will not have any doubts. You can assess my grandfather’s condition at that time. If you can’t cure him, forget it. If you can, I’ll find a way.”

When she said this, a blush appeared on her pale cheeks. She had never had a boyfriend in her life. It was also the first time that she had asked someone to pretend to be her boyfriend.

The most important thing was that she had a good impression of Qin Haodong deep within her heart. When she thought of asking this handsome man be her boyfriend, her heart kept pounding.

Qin Haodong said, “That’s good. Let’s go and have a look.”

Seeing that he had agreed, Hua Mingrui was overjoyed and said, “Haodong, thank you.”

“There’s no need to thank me. It’s not a big deal at all.”

Qin Haodong asked Hua Mingrui to get in his car and then drove according to the directions given by her.

Along the way, Hua Mingrui began to update him about her grandfather’s situation. It turned out that her grandfather’s name was Mu Baisen. He was one of the old generals in the country and had a very high status.

Among his uncles, some were in political careers and some were in the army. They all had important positions. Only his youngest uncle, Mu Haiqing, was a businessman. His business empire was also very large. The Treasure-gathering Auction House was one of his businesses.

Qin Haodong nodded secretly. No wonder he could open such a big auction house in a place like the capital. It turned out that he had such an outstanding background.

While they were talking, they drove to a sanatorium in the outskirts of the capital. The mountains and rivers here were beautiful and the air was fresh. It was indeed a good place for recuperation.

This sanatorium belonged to the military. From the door, there were many sentries at every few steps. The security was extremely tight.

Hua Mingrui showed her pass and brought Qin Haodong into the sanatorium.

After entering, it was still heavily guarded. All kinds of guards in military uniforms and plain clothes were there. Once they found anything unusual, they would strike immediately.

Mu Baisen’s rank was very high. He did not live with other people and enjoyed having a small courtyard on his own.

The guards at the door knew Hua Mingrui. When they saw her, they did not say anything and let them in.

Perhaps she wanted to make their relationship look more realistic, Hua Mingrui took Qin Haodong’s arm and her ample chest brushed against his arm.

When they walked into the ward, they saw a skinny old man lying on the bed, with various tubes inserted in his body and he breathed with the help of an oxygen tube. At this time, he was in a coma.

A middle-aged man in his 40s was standing at the head of the bed. He had a superior air about him. But at this time, he was worried about the old man’s illness.

He was Hua Mingrui’s uncle, Mu Haiqing. He was the head of the Mu’s Group in the capital and had hundreds of billions of assets.

Next to him stood a young doctor in his thirties. He was wearing a white coat and his hair was carefully combed. There was a faint trace of arrogance on his face and he was talking to Mu Haiqing.

Seeing Hua Mingrui and Qin Haodong entering, the young doctor stopped talking immediately. Mu Haiqing also turned around and saw that it was Hua Mingrui. He said, “Mingrui, you’re here.”
