Chapter 25 The Supreme Black Card
Wang Ye finished discussing these matters with Fang Cunshan and immediately rose to leave the study.
"Divine Doctor Wang, Divine Doctor Wang, you must take this card. You've saved me this time, and I must express my gratitude," Fang Cunshan hurried after him, handing over a black card with gold embossing to Wang Ye.
"This..." Wang Ye wanted to refuse, but Fang Cunshan had already pushed it firmly into his hand.
Actually, Fang Cunshan's action was not solely to thank Wang Ye, but to give himself some peace of mind.
After all, Wang Ye had saved his life, and that was a great favor. If he didn't reciprocate, what if Wang Ye used this as leverage to ask for a favor in the future?
So it was better to give him a black card from the company now and settle this debt of gratitude.
"Divine Doctor Wang, this black card is exclusive to our Fang Family enterprise. With this card, you can spend freely at any Fang Family venture and can withdraw up to ten million in cash in a single transaction, with unlimited transactions. As long as the Fang Family exists, this black card will always be valid."
According to what Fang Cunshan was saying, owning this kind of black card was essentially like owning all of the Fang Family's wealth.
However, the final right of interpretation still rested with the Fang Family. Thus, the effectiveness of this black card wasn't really that substantial.
Moreover, in Fang Cunshan's view, Wang Ye was unlikely to use this black card casually.
So in the end, it amounted to repaying a tremendous favor with a very small price.
Outside the study, the Fang Family people were still whispering among themselves.
"What's this young Divine Doctor discussing with the patriarch? It's been so long, and he still hasn't come out."
"Do you need to ask? Of course, he's securing benefits from the patriarch. This time, the patriarch is probably going to get thoroughly fleeced."
"That kid, he isn't asking the patriarch for a few billion in cash, is he!"
"A few billion? It's possible. And there might be even more excessive demands than that!"
As their conversation reached a peak of excitement, the door to the study opened.
"Old Mr. Fang, do hold back, I'll take my leave now," Wang Ye said, standing up to leave.
"Steward Liu, see Divine Doctor Wang out for me," Fang Cunshan ordered.
"Yes."
Tan Long, seeing this, hastily followed Wang Ye.
He had originally planned to take advantage of this opportunity to gain something from the Fang Family, but Wang Ye insisted on speaking to Patriarch Fang alone. This left Tan Long no chance to show his worth, and now that Wang Ye was coming out and immediately wanting to leave, Tan Long had even less of an opportunity.
So Tan Long quickly leaned in and whispered to Wang Ye, "Divine Doctor Wang, why the rush to leave? You've already saved the person, staying a little longer at the Fang Family wouldn't hurt!"
"No need!" Wang Ye replied succinctly.
"This..."
Tan Long was quite helpless, but he had no other solution. It was Wang Ye who had cured and saved a life; Tan Long was merely an intermediary and had no say!
As they were leaving the Fang Family residence, Wang Ye spotted Max in the corner, surrounded by several of the Fang Family's bodyguards.
This time, he had nearly caused the death of Patriarch Fang, so the Fang Family would definitely not let him off the hook.
Thinking of how arrogant he had been, daring to scorn traditional medicine, Wang Ye felt it was necessary to make Max understand that traditional medicine should not be underestimated.
So Wang Ye paused, giving Max a glance.
He said indifferently, "Doctor Max, as a doctor, you should always maintain a humble heart. Traditional medicine does not tolerate blasphemy."
After speaking, Wang Ye turned and walked away without waiting for Max's reaction or saying another word.
To someone like Max, Wang Ye could say he didn't care at all.
But Max, upon hearing Wang Ye's words, stood rooted to the spot.
He felt insulted, but he knew it was his own doing. If he hadn't looked down on Chinese medicine, hadn't underestimated Wang Ye, this outcome would never have occurred.
Moreover, the facts had proven that Chinese medicine was certainly not inferior to Western medicine, and may even be superior. The wonder drug his research team had strived to develop over a lifetime couldn't match the medical skills of a young newcomer in Chinese medicine, a realization that warranted his deep reflection.
At the entrance of the Fang Family, Steward Liu personally opened the car door for Wang Ye and saw him into the vehicle.
The Fang Family's bodyguards all bowed at ninety degrees to bid farewell to Wang Ye.
"Steward Liu, the Divine Doctor I brought this time has not disappointed you, right?" Tan Long seized the opportunity to speak to Steward Liu.
"Not at all, Doctor Wang is indeed a Divine Doctor, with unmatched medical skills."
"Hmm, then Steward Liu, in the future in front of Patriarch Fang, could you possibly..." Tan Long said with a slight smile.
Steward Liu was a smart man and immediately understood what Tan Long meant.
"Mr. Tan, rest assured! Rest assured! I definitely won't forget this. Your contributions will certainly be known to the old patriarch."
"Then I'll have to trouble Steward Liu!"
"Ah, Mr. Tan, saying that is like a slap in my face. I should be thanking you instead. I was somewhat dismissive before, and I hope you can be magnanimous, very magnanimous."
"Hahaha, I won't hold those things against you..."
...
On the other side, Peerless Medical Hall.
Chen Li knew that Wang Ye was treating Patriarch Fang at the Fang Family, so he was somewhat anxious. He was very clear about the complex situation of the Fang Family.
It had been quite a while, and Wang Ye still had not returned. Chen Li worried that something might have happened.
Although Wang Ye had excellent medical skills, the risk involved in this treatment was not to be underestimated.
Chen Li felt that if Wang Ye did not come back soon, he should go to the Fang Family to check.
If there were any unexpected circumstances, he could offer his help upon reaching there.
But just as Chen Li was about to head to the Fang Family, Tan Long's car stopped at the entrance of Peerless Medical Hall.
Wang Ye and Tan Long got out of the car together.
"Doctor Wang, did that old Patriarch Fang really not give you some kind of benefit?" Tan Long asked Wang Ye after getting out of the car.
He had been asking on the way, but according to Fang Qiu, besides a black card, there had been nothing else. However, Tan Long did not believe it.
"Mr. Tan, really, there was nothing. I simply reminisced about the past with Patriarch Fang. Here, you've worked hard this time. I'll give you this black card," Wang Ye said generously.
Even though Wang Ye was in dire need of money and the black card could provide him with funds anytime, he did not want to obtain capital in this manner.
"A black card?" Tan Long looked at the black card in Wang Ye's hand with great interest.
He knew what this black card represented—it was the highest token of esteem the Fang Family offered to their most honorable friends.
But even if Tan Long accepted the card, it would be useless to him. The Fang Family would verify the holder's identity. If he tried to use it, it would be inevitably declined.
"Doctor Wang, that card is rightfully yours, how can I take it away! Let it be, I shall be leaving now. If there's anything you need in the future, just let me know," Tan Long said as he got into his car and drove away.
Although he had not gained any immediate benefit, there would surely come a day when he would benefit from this event.
