Chapter 511: 485 Market Pricing



Who can go a lifetime without meeting any adversity? No one can.

It’s the reaction after encountering adversity that directly defines one’s mindset and fate.

Upon returning home, Mother Yu sat on the sofa and after mulling over Xiao Qian’s words, they seemed more and more reasonable.

“Oh, some people just love pouring into a perceived dilemma, like that ‘whoever’. Mother Yu implied heavily, immediately transplanting Aunt into the context.

“This is big baby mentality. But it has nothing to do with me how she behaves. Treating Li Zhen has nothing to do with her. Uncle, Aunt, I have two requests, I hope you can agree to them.”

“What requests?” Father Yu asked.

“Pricing according to market rules, freely buying and selling.”

Father Yu pondered briefly, ah, understood.

Xiao Qian’s implication was— she wouldn’t treat for free, the charge would be as much as it should be, and she hoped Father Yu would not interfere.

“Sure.”

Xiao Qian seemed to see a fortune beckoning her. Xiao Qiang had mentioned that Aunt has a lot of savings, probably plundered from Mother Yu’s side. There’s no doubt that she wouldn’t hesitate to take advantage of her sister-in-law, and she won’t be grateful for the plunder.

Xiao Qian likes to scam such people. She can do so guilt-free and still receive their gratitude.

“What’s the other requirement?”

“I hope, you won’t let anyone know that I was the one who treated Li Zhen. To be honest, no one domestically can currently treat this. I only know because of my teacher— it’s not good if this gets out. Include my teacher in that, don’t tell her in the future that I was the one who treated him.”

Xiao Qian’s words were very artful and highly skilled.

Father Yu and Mother Yu were both perceptive, and wouldn’t overstep their boundaries in conversation.

From what Xiao Qian said, Father Yu and Mother Yu would understand that, the theories Xiao Qian spoke of were a subject currently being researched by Professor Liu. She herself was very meticulous and wouldn’t easily treat an illness she wasn’t sure she could cure.

Xiao Qian was probably inspired by Professor Liu, so she had a bit of knowledge. Both this matter and the Yu family were involved. Xiao Qian was originally not obligated to help, but for the greater good of the family, she decided to extend a hand.

By doing this, scheming Xiao Qian not only won the affections of Father Yu and Mother Yu, but also demonstrated she was reliable in handling things and could consider the larger picture.

Actually, Xiao Qian had her eyes only on the gleaming property funds of Aunt. The most brilliant means of revenge isn’t to let her be left destitute and alone, but having swindled her of her money, she still has to kneel down asking for favours from Xiao Qian. Not only that, she has to thank Xiao Qian tearfully after begging.

“Are you confident about it?” Father Yu asked Xiao Qian.

“Anyway, Li Zhen is already like this, let me try to treat him first. Moreover, I will not administer any medicine. The worst outcome is that I might not be able to treat him, but it’s not like he’ll get worse.”

Indeed, what situation could be worse than the current one? Father Yu accepted Xiao Qian’s explanation.

“If I do manage to treat Li Zhen, don’t bring any such cases to me again in the future, and don’t mentioning it was me who treated Li Zhen. Because this is a research achievement of my teacher, and I’m just doing it for… you know.”

Father Yu and Mother Yu nodded, saying “What a sensible child!”

Xiao Qian smiled, thinking: She’s just trying to earn money!

“The question is, would her aunt let Xiao Qian treat her?”

Mother Yu understood Aunt’s character too well. In Father Yu’s words, Aunt was like a piece of rotten meat that would stink wherever it went.

If Aunt disliked Xiao Qian, she wouldn’t easily change her opinion.

“Within three days, she will come begging for my help.”

Due to this matter, Xiao Qian decided not to return to school for the time being. Mother Yu decided to keep Xiao Qian at home for meals. Xiao Qian wanted to show her virtuous side and was about to step into the kitchen when Mother Yu pushed her out.

Father Yu had gone back. Xiao Qian was bored by herself and sat on the sofa flipping through a pamphlet that Eldest Brother had brought over. It was about a newly developed property he had.

After slaughtering Aunt, the piggy bank, she could buy a small high-rise, right? Ask Eldest Brother for an internal price, buy a unit to keep, there was never such a thing as too much property.

When would be a better time to buy, if not now when prices are down?

She didn’t know how much money was actually in Aunt’s piggy bank. Xiao Qian estimated it would be enough for a small apartment but probably a little short for a storefront. Maybe she could add some more money and just get a storefront, which would be perfect for collecting rent income.

Just as Xiao Qian was considering these, the doorbell rang.

“Xiao Qian, would you open the door? We seem to have a visitor.”

“Storefront.”

“Who?” Mother Yu poked her head out. She and Aunt were busy cooking in the kitchen.

“It’s okay, probably Uncle, I guess.”

Upon opening the door, Miss Yu and Father Li walked in one after another.

After Aunt walked in, she just stood in front of Xiao Qian without saying anything.

Mother Yu came out of the kitchen wiping her hands with her apron. Seeing the couple, she wasn’t too surprised and greeted them as she normally would.

“You’ve arrived just in time. Stay for dinner.”

Everyone knew Aunt and her husband were here for a reason. Mother Yu didn’t bring it up first. She took delight in watching Aunt’s conflicted expression.

Having been bullied by Aunt for so many years, the day when she had to beg had finally come.

Father Li nudged Aunt. They had both agreed beforehand that the mess that Aunt had created, she would have to clean up herself.

Aunt still found Xiao Qian displeasing to the eye, but she really had no other choice now. She had asked everyone she knew today, and just like Xiao Qian stated, no one knew what was wrong, and no one could promise a cure.

Now, for the sake of her son, she could only swallow her pride and ask for help from Chen Xiaoqian, the last person she would want to turn to.

“I beg you to treat my son, plea…se.”

Before Aunt’s arrival, Uncle had warned her that without Xiao Qian’s help, he would divorce her and take Li Zhen abroad.

“I don’t practice medicine without a license.” Xiao Qian shook her head with a smile on her face.

Uncle stepped forward and bowed to Xiao Qian. “Please, you must save my son.”

“Chen Xiaoqian! Don’t push your luck! I’ve already apologized, what more do you want!” Aunt, with her temper, saying a single sentence was already a huge concession. Seeing Xiao Qian looking so pleased with herself made Aunt’s blood boil.

“I don’t want anything. I just don’t want to violate laws to practice medicine.” Xiaoqian crossed her legs elegantly and gave a dismissive glance at Aunt. She turned to Uncle and spoke to him earnestly.

“If I agree to help now, certain people may run to our school later and report to the school officials about my unsanctioned medical practice. I can’t bear such a consequence, You’d better find someone else, Uncle. Maybe they can cure it.”

If anyone else could help, they would not be seeking Xiao Qian’s help.
