Chapter 105 - Hope For Cure

Meng Lun endured the pain and lay down on the couch, saying, "Good."

Willow Chenming and the others watched in awe, wondering if Omi was truly proficient in healing. If he was, wouldn't he have an explosive reputation? Recruiting a bodyguard, it turned out this bodyguard was also a divine doctor. What luck!

Omi took out a short silver needle.

He pressed it on Meng Lun's back and, after identifying the painful spot where Meng Lun had sprained, he stabbed it precisely.

"Wow," Meng Lun felt a sense of relief, and the tense muscles in his back relaxed greatly.

Omi only needed a silver needle because sprains like this were too common for him. When his brothers and sisters used to practice martial arts, bruises and sprains were common. Everyone gave each other needles, even his big brother, who had the worst medical skills, could do it.

Using a silver needle, Omi pricked Meng Lun's back in three places. In less than ten minutes, Omi said, "Alright, it's fine."

Meng Lun sat up, and sure enough, it was as if he hadn't sprained it.

"Wow, that's amazing," Meng Lun was amazed. Usually, when others sprained their injuries, they would apply plasters that invigorated blood and eliminated stasis. They would be fine after a day or two, while Omi's acupuncture worked in just ten minutes.

"Come on, Vice President, don't be surprised by everything. If you keep being surprised, I won't be able to help but say your medical skills are poor again."

"Heh heh," Meng Lun didn't mind smiling.

Liu Chenming was completely convinced this time. Omi was really the divine doctor Uncle Meng said he was.

Wen Qi was now looking at Omi, no longer showing as much respect as before, while Liona's face was a bit complicated. The first time she saw this, she was very happy and looking forward to it, as she had a long life ahead of her and a lot to do. But she didn't expect that it would be Omi. Omi was a shameless and tricky young man. In Liona's heart, the two images of Omi couldn't be reconciled.

Meng Lun said, "Brother Tang, let me introduce you. This is my granddaughter, Meng Wenqi." After sitting up, Meng Lun introduced his granddaughter to Omi. He was eager to introduce them, hoping they would hit it off since they were all about the same age.

Wen Qi looked at Omi and smiled, "Hello, thank you for saving my grandfather."

"Oh, it's just a sprain, let's not make it sound so serious," Omi nodded slightly. This was the second time he had seen Wen Qi, though others didn't know it.

Willow Chenming was excited, "Omi, it's hard to believe you're also a miracle doctor. I was just looking for a bodyguard, but I didn't expect to be this lucky."

Omi said, "Uncle Willow, being a bodyguard is my primary profession. Medical knowledge is just a hobby, you know?"

Liu Chenming said, "Omi, help me take a look at Xiang'er. Actually, I should have told you about Xiang'er's illness long ago."

"I already know," Omi said.

"Uh, how did you know?" Willow Chenming wondered. This was something the general public didn't know, and Wu Ma would never talk nonsense.

"Oh, Miss messed up the other night. When she threw a tantrum, she pitied herself and told me to stop bothering her."

Liona heard this and pouted, "You're the one throwing a tantrum."

Meng Lun laughed, "Alright, don't talk so much. Brother Tang, tell me, how do you plan to cure Xiang Yun's disease? Do you have a solution?"

Omi scratched his head. At the moment, Omi regretted not studying seriously. If it were his uncle or his teacher's wife, they would definitely be able to cure it. Even his sister would have had a five-point certainty. But Omi didn't study seriously at first, so he was only thirty percent confident in a cure.

Omi said, "I won't hide it from you. I've let you down. Miss's illness is a bit tricky. I'm afraid I only have a thirty percent chance of curing it."

Meng Lun was horrified, "What did you say? Thirty percent? Is it a cure or a treatment?"

"Yes, I'm only thirty percent confident in a cure. If it were my uncle or teacher's wife, it would be one hundred percent. But I'm really sorry I didn't learn everything," Omi explained apologetically.

Meng Lun was excited and thanked Omi, "Thank you so much." Even Liona was also on fire inside, rekindling her desire for life.

"Uh, what's wrong with you guys?Why aren't you disappointed that I'm only thirty percent sure of a cure?"

Liu Chenming was thrilled too, "Omi, hearing you say there's a thirty percent chance of a cure is wonderful news. Before, there was no hope of a cure at all, and even the hope of Xiang'er living past twenty was less than 10%. Now you say there's a thirty percent chance, that's fantastic." 

Liu Chenming was delighted, "Yeah, I'm really afraid that I might have misheard cure for treatment. Brother Tang, say it again, is it a cure or a treatment?"

Omi assured them, "It's a cure, not just treatment. Give me five years ago, I could have been one hundred percent sure of it."

"What about if it's treated? How many years can you extend Xiang'er's life? Can she live to be thirty, or even twenty-five?" Willow Chenming asked anxiously.

Omi reassured them, "Extending her life is no problem at all for me. Eighty is the minimum standard."

"What? Eighty years old." Willow Chenming was ecstatic, this news was really great, before, the hope of Liona being able to live past twenty years old was less than 10% ah. Now Omi actually said that he could at least renew her life to eighty years old, what's the point of worrying about that, those who weren't sick may not live to eighty years old either.

Liona was also excited at the moment, Wen Qi and Liona both hugged each other tightly, as a way to vent their inner excitement.

The haze that shrouded Liu Chen Ming's head appeared to have suddenly dissipated, and the sky cleared.

Liu Chen Ming said eagerly, "Omi, you should quickly help me check on Xiang'er's condition."

"Good," Omi nodded. His heart was somewhat overwhelmed. In Omi's perspective, he didn't perceive Liona's illness as a significant issue; otherwise, he would have been nervous and anxious on Liona's behalf. Although Omi was only thirty percent certain that he could cure her, renewing her life was certainly achievable.

"Xiang'er, come over here and let Tzu-Chen take a look," Liu Chenming said to Liona.

Liona blushed, her feelings were a bit complex as she walked over to Omi and took a seat. A man she had initially found repulsive was now her potential savior.

The room was filled with hope, as the revelation of Omi's abilities brought newfound optimism to their lives.
