Hu Chengxuan, upon hearing this, indeed leapt to his feet on the spot.
"What is she, a cast-off wench that nobody wants; she can dream on!"
Madam Hu also cried out, disregarding her dignity.
"What Divine Doctor? She's worse than a whore, trying to extort from us, there's no way!"
"Are you all conspiring to blackmail us?"
Huang Zai'an spread his hands, showing helplessness on his face.
"Blackmail Master Hu? I wouldn't dare; I am also powerless. Fortunately, my disciple is extremely gifted and can treat this illness. If you all don't listen, that's your choice, and there's nothing I can do."
"Perhaps you should discuss among yourselves. After all, my disciple said, one million Silver, a public apology, and a written guarantee that neither Young Master Hu nor the Prefectural Magistrate nor any of the Hu Family will approach her for any reason hereafter. If even one of these three conditions isn't met, she will not lift a finger."
