Gu Fan directly ignored Wang Chenglong's gaze and quickly walked to the old man lying on the ground, who was being shaded from the sun by an umbrella. He extended his hand to take the old man's pulse.

Lin Xuetang and Zhu Shengshou looked stunned, and Wang Chenglong's face immediately turned sour. As for Wang Yuyan, she was now a sobbing mess, looking at Gu Fan with hope, not thinking too much, and truly regarding Gu Fan as a ray of hope.

From the way Gu Fan took the pulse, it was clear he was a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) practitioner. TCM, compared to Western medicine, is harder to learn and even harder to master. Most people who achieve success in TCM are over fifty years old.

But Gu Fan was exceptionally young.

Lin Xuetang and Zhu Shengshou shook their heads in secret.

Wang Chenglong also regretted letting Gu Fan try, as he truly treated his grandfather as a test subject. How could this be acceptable!

Wang Chenglong was about to step forward, but was gently held back by Zhu Shengshou, who gave him a look to calm down.

"Uncle Zhu!" Wang Chenglong's voice was low.

"Give yourself some hope! He is very serious!" Zhu Shengshou sighed.

Wang Chenglong, seeing Gu Fan taking the pulse with a solemn expression, slowly stepped back and quieted down.

"Yin Qi!" Gu Fan muttered softly, his expression serious.

This Yin Qi carried a hint of malevolence, giving it a slightly evil flavor. Although it was not enough to be fatal, it was sufficient to trigger the old man's chronic illness, leading to its rapid onset.

If not for encountering Gu Fan, the old man would have been doomed!

Gu Fan knew that the presence of Yin Qi indicated that the situation behind it was likely very complex. Attempting to treat it might plunge him into a large whirlpool.

But for the sake of the jade piece, Gu Fan couldn't afford to worry about it.

Gu Fan reached out and tore open the old man's shirt, exposing his chest.

Then, he placed his palm tightly on the old man's chest, and his spiritual energy burst forth, forming a thread that carefully entered the old man's body.

The unique spiritual energy of the Immortal Doctor Sect was far beyond the level of Yin Qi, which was quickly and thoroughly eliminated.

Next, Gu Fan's fingers moved, and in the blink of an eye, he pressed the old man's chest over a dozen times, each press accompanied by a flow of spiritual energy.

This spiritual energy, warm and full of vitality, quickly enveloped the old man's heart, dissolving the blockage and restoring blood flow. As the blood flow resumed, the old man's heart, which had stopped beating, instantly revived!

"Done!" Gu Fan stood up, the old man's life was saved.

Lin Xuetang and Zhu Shengshou quickly approached to check.

"He's breathing!"

"His heart is beating!"

This result left Lin Xuetang and Zhu Shengshou in disbelief, deeply impressed.

Just by pressing the chest and then pressing a few more times, the old man, whose heart had stopped and who was almost at death's door, was pulled back to life.

What kind of medical skill was this! It was truly miraculous!

"Grandpa!" Wang Chenglong and Wang Yuyan were overjoyed and hurried to see him.

"He won't wake up yet, or rather, his condition is still very dangerous. But I believe these two can handle the rest." Gu Fan looked at Lin Xuetang and Zhu Shengshou.

"Quickly, get the old man into the car and take him to the hospital!" Wang Chenglong said seriously: "I'm sorry, Uncle Lin, Uncle Zhu!"

"Don't worry, Wang Lao's condition is now stable!" Zhu Shengshou looked at Gu Fan and said seriously: "Young man, we offended you earlier, please forgive us!"

As he spoke, Zhu Shengshou actually bowed to Gu Fan!

Gu Fan hurriedly said: "Old man, this is absolutely not right!"

"Young man, I apologize to you. Fortunately, you were here, or else Wang Lao would have... Thank you!" Lin Xuetang said with gratitude.

Gu Fan scratched his head and smiled shyly.

Lin Xuetang and Zhu Shengshou looked at Gu Fan with a slightly strange expression, perhaps not expecting such a focused and confident person to be so shy when praised.

However, they didn't say anything more, as the environment was not good, and Wang Lao's condition could change at any moment. It was safer to get him to the hospital as soon as possible.

As they got into the car, they gave Wang Chenglong a deep look, and only after seeing him nod did they feel reassured.

"Brother, I'll go with Grandpa." Wang Yuyan looked at Gu Fan with gratitude and said seriously: "Thank you!"

"You're welcome!" Gu Fan scratched his head.

This Wang Yuyan was an absolute beauty, not inferior to Huang Lele. Compared to Huang Lele, she had a more refined and noble aura. This was probably due to her upbringing.

Gu Fan realized that there were indeed many beautiful women in Donghai. In just a short day, no, in just a few hours, he had encountered three beautiful women, each one impacting his heart.

"Brother, thank him properly!" Wang Yuyan got into the car.

"Rest assured!" Wang Chenglong nodded.

The convoy quickly sped away.

"Thank you!" Wang Chenglong stepped forward and tightly gripped Gu Fan's hand, with great force.

"You're welcome, in such a situation, and with my skills, how could I not help?" Gu Fan smiled shyly.

Wang Chenglong took out a checkbook and quickly wrote down a number, handing it to Gu Fan and said: "Although I know this might seem a bit vulgar, it represents my and my family's gratitude. Please accept it!"

"Please put it away!" Gu Fan's expression was serious.

"Is it too little?" Wang Chenglong was ready to write more without hesitation.

"It's not too little!" Gu Fan saw that the check was for 100,000, which was not a small amount, but he had his own plans. He directly said: "I still need my consultation fee. When the old man wakes up, I need to see him. Also, give me 100 yuan, I need to take a taxi!"

A lot of time had been wasted, and he needed to go home, pack, and then go to his tutoring job. Taking the bus would be too tight.

Wang Chenglong was taken aback, first putting away the check, then smiling and saying: "How about this, I'll drive you!"

"You should go to the hospital first!" Gu Fan smiled and declined.

"Thank you!" Wang Chenglong was also very anxious and wanted to be with his grandfather like Wang Yuyan. But to thank Gu Fan, he had to stay behind.

Now, Gu Fan's words hit right at his heart.

"I'll have my driver take you, don't refuse. Give me a chance to thank you, okay?" Wang Chenglong said sincerely.

"Alright!" Gu Fan could only nod, but he thought it would be better to give him 100 yuan, as taking a taxi home would leave him with some money left over.

"How is my grandfather?" Wang Chenglong asked softly, looking at Gu Fan with anticipation. He didn't understand medicine, but Lin Xuetang and Zhu Shengshou had already given a death sentence, and Gu Fan had reversed it, indicating that Gu Fan had extraordinary medical skills.

He was thinking about whether he could ask Gu Fan to help again. Perhaps, his grandfather's condition could improve.

"I know your medical skills are excellent. Can you take another look at my grandfather? He feels that his time is limited and wants to see the group he founded, especially the real estate company I lead, which he cares about deeply. This is actually about me. I couldn't go against his wishes, so I took a risk and had him tour the site, even inviting Uncle Lin and Uncle Zhu. I didn't expect... If not for meeting you today, I can't imagine what would have happened!" Wang Chenglong said expectantly.

"I know your medical skills are superb. Can you take another look at my grandfather? Can his illness be cured?" Wang Chenglong said sincerely: "Please, little brother!"

"Let's not talk about that yet. I need to tell you that although your grandfather's illness is serious, since you dared to let him move around and had two old doctors accompany him, this situation shouldn't have happened. I detected a Yin Qi in his body. The presence of this Yin Qi, under high temperatures, can stimulate his chronic illness, causing it to rapidly worsen!" Gu Fan considered and decided to tell the truth.

"Yin Qi?" Wang Chenglong was confused.

"Let me put it bluntly, someone has tampered with your grandfather!" Gu Fan said directly.

Wang Chenglong's face changed, and his eyes instantly filled with dark anger.

"Little brother, no, sir, this is my business card. I don't even know your name!" Wang Chenglong's attitude quickly changed, showing a hint of respect.

"Remember my phone number, call me when the old man wakes up. Also, my name is Gu Fan!" Gu Fan opened the car door, preparing to leave.

"Mr. Gu, I will call you as soon as the old man wakes up." Wang Chenglong instructed the driver: "Make sure to safely deliver Mr. Gu to his destination. No mistakes."

"Yes, Mr. Wang!" the driver nodded.

Watching the car drive away, Wang Chenglong's face became even darker. He waved to the site manager to come over, asking him to drive him to the hospital.

The manager was extremely excited, as this was a rare opportunity to interact closely with the group's CEO.

After Wang Chenglong's car left, the workers began to discuss.

"Who is that person? He actually saved Wang Lao!"

"Seems to be from our site?"

"A temporary worker... in the next dormitory, he's been here for seven days, and I heard he's a college-bound student!"

"A college-bound student with such good medical skills, and he refused the check from the CEO. What a fool!"

"I think you're the fool. With such good medical skills, would he lack money?"

"That's not right. If he doesn't lack money, why is he working on our site?"

"He's experiencing life, understand? This kind of person is not someone we can fathom!"

"Right, having skills is great!"

"I remember he's with the miser. He must have withheld wages. The miser likes to exploit temporary workers. Now that the CEO knows, he'll probably deal with him!"

"Where is the miser?"

"Seems to be in the toilet..."
