8: Investigate Qiao Nian!
8: Investigate Qiao Nian!
Editor: Atlas Studios
Gu Zhou still remembered the words of the doctors who had treated his illness in the past.
They said that his chances of recovery were less than ten percent.
Many people asserted that he would not live past twenty, but he had managed to live for five more years through tremendous effort.
This woman clearly overestimated her own abilities.
She actually said that she had a 70% chance of curing him.
In the field of medicine, a 70% chance was already very high!
Gu Zhou’s gaze landed on Qiao Nian’s face and a trace of ice flashed in his eyes.
Taking his time, he asked, “Seventy percent?”
Seeing that Gu Zhou didn’t believe her, Qiao Nian crossed her legs and leaned forward slightly.
She said, “Did the doctors you sought say that your chances were less than 10%?
They’re not exactly wrong.
I’m guessing that most of them are doctors of Western medicine!”
Gu Zhou glanced coldly at Qiao Nian and rubbed the jade ring on his finger in a habitual motion, looking as if he was mulling over her words.
Qiao Nian was right.
Most of the doctors he sought were doctors of Western medicine, and he had never thought of Chinese medicine.
After all, modern medical science was advanced.
Western medicine could treat his symptoms directly, according to his condition.
Qiao Nian’s gaze fell on Gu Zhou’s jade ring.
The quality of this jade was similar to the jade pendant that the man had given her five years ago.
She had to get it back when she returned home.
“Actually, even if you found a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, there aren’t many who can treat your illness.” Qiao Nian tucked her hair behind her ear and said seriously, “The main focus of my research is toxins.”
A bright smile appeared on Gu Zhou’s face, concealing the murderous intent in his eyes.
It seemed that Qiao Nian was really here to target the Gu family.
Gu Zhou left after receiving a call.
Qiao Nian walked back to the bathroom and used a hairdryer to dry her hair.
When she returned to her room, she saw that she had received a text from Old A.
Qiao Nian immediately dialed Old A’s number.
The call went through, but before she could speak, Old A’s anxious voice came through the phone.
“Nian Nian, what did you do?
Why is someone investigating you?”
Qiao Nian looked out of the window at the garden, basking in the sun.
Puzzled, she asked, “Who wants to investigate me?”
“Someone from the Gu family.
H-his name is Gu Zhou!” Old A seemed helpless.
Letting out a long sigh, he said, “The Gu family has power and influence.
But don’t worry, I have ways to help you block their advances!”
“There’s no need for that.
Just give him the information you found.” With that, Qiao Nian hung up on Old A.
She was about to leave her room when her phone rang again.
