Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 779: Chapter 778: I Am the Sun, Your Mother is Zhao Xianglu (2nd Update)

”The patient has just undergone surgery, and to operate again would greatly increase the risk, there’s only a fifty percent chance of survival! Moreover, the patient has a severe brain concussion, and it is very likely that he will not regain consciousness. His entire body has suffered comminuted fractures, with the bones of his limbs being the most severely shattered. Even if he were cured, he wouldn’t be able to stand up...”

Ziyan spoke on and on, completely oblivious to the fact that Zhang Zongyao’s face had turned utterly dark.

After taking a deep breath, Zhang Zongyao barked coldly, ”After all this time, all you do is come back to tell me this?”

Undergoing major surgeries twice, each carrying a risk of over 50%, was essentially one foot in the Netherworld. How could Zhang Zongyao dare to let his nephew take such a risk?

If luck wasn’t on their side and the surgery failed, Zhang Zongyao couldn’t imagine what his elder brother would turn into upon hearing the news.

”This is the result we can achieve with our involvement! If others had done it, the success rate of the first surgery would have been extremely low!” Ziyan, unaware of the thoughts swirling in Zhang Zongyao’s head, still wore an expression of supreme arrogance on her face.

As if to suggest that achieving this much was already a testament to their immense medical expertise.

”Ladies and gentlemen, I don’t know if you have any better ideas! If someone can cure my nephew this time, I’ll give him a billion directly! Moreover, the Zhang Family will owe him a favor!”

Zhang Zongyao ignored Ziyan and instead, turned his head and said gravely to the surrounding people.

A billion!

And a favor from the Zhang Family!

The crowd’s eyes burned with desire. A billion was already a huge amount of money for them! But the favor of the Zhang Family was even more important! Worth much more than the billion!

”Hmph! What capabilities do these people have? In this world, besides my teacher, only I am confident in treating the patient!” Ziyan, seeing that Zhang Zongyao was ignoring her and asking others, scoffed coldly.

Her words caused everyone to snap back to reality. The conditions Zhang Zongyao offered were tempting, but one had to have the skills to take on the challenge.

However, great rewards attract the brave. Mei Yide and a few other famed doctors quietly discussed among themselves and then promptly stepped forward, saying, ”Chairman Zhang, after discussing among the experts from our various fields, we have a 60% confidence in curing your nephew!”

A 60% chance seemed more reliable than Ziyan’s claims.

”Huaxia people really love vanity and crave wealth and honor!” Ziyan laughed coldly, clearly believing that these individuals were merely lured by Zhang Zongyao’s offer and didn’t actually possess the necessary skill level.

”I want a complete recovery! Not a vegetative state, and he must be able to stand up!” Zhang Zongyao said to Mei Yide.

”That’s completely impossible, your son’s injuries are too severe. We can only assure a 60% confidence level, and even if he were to regain consciousness, the complete shattering of his limbs’ bones means he would never be able to stand again,” Mei Yide said with a grim face.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Zongyao fell silent. A 60% chance was not small. Although he wouldn’t be able to recover as before, at least it would save his life, which wasn’t too bad.

Waving his hand, Zhang Zongyao was about to have Mei Yide proceed with the surgery when Ye Haochuan suddenly chuckled, ”I have a 70% chance, how about letting me give it a try?”

Upon hearing Ye Haochuan’s words, You Diandiao immediately jumped out and said, ”Quit your bullshit! It takes all of us together to have a 60% chance. Do you mean to say you alone can surpass all of us combined?”

He too was assembled by Mei Yide, together accounting for more than ten people, each an expert in their own field.

Hearing his words, Ye Haochuan merely chuckled and nodded earnestly.

Damn! This kid is way too arrogant!

Even Mei Yide was feeling irked at the moment, grumbling, ”Young man, don’t think that having a bit of an empty reputation allows you to be so haughty! You should know there are plenty who are better at medicine than you, so what are you worth?”

Yet it seemed as if Ye Haochuan had not heard him at all, chuckling, ”When I mentioned a 70% confidence level, I meant a complete assurance of a cure!”

Upon hearing these words, everyone in the room was shocked, their mouths agape as they stared at him dumbfounded.

A complete cure? What a joke, do you think you are Hua Tuo reborn, or possessed by Bian Que?

The crowd began to laugh in derision, convinced Ye Haochuan had lost his mind. Even if the offer made by Zhang Zongyao was truly tempting, there was no need to boast so extravagantly, was there? If it turned out he couldn’t cure the illness, he might even lose his life—did he really think the Zhang family was that gullible?

Kou Jing also tugged at Ye Haochuan’s arm, speaking softly, ”Are you really sure you have a way?”

Holding her small hand in his, Ye Haochuan chuckled with a sly grin, ”It looks like I’ll have to spank your little hand when we get back, huh? Not even believing your own man!”

Kou Jing glared at him coquettishly, her face flushing, and she stopped talking.

”Kid, are you certain you’re 70% confident you can cure my nephew completely?” Zhang Zongyao, after hearing Ye Haochuan’s statement, felt a sudden jolt in his heart and stared at him with a dark look.

”Of course!” Ye Haochuan smiled and nodded, his expression brimming with confidence.

At that moment, Ziyan scoffed from the side, ”You Huaxia have a saying, which is ’Ye Lang’s arrogance.’ It’s meant for people exactly like you!”

Ye Haochuan wasn’t offended at all, smiling towards her he said, ”Miss Ziyan really does have a deep understanding of our culture, utilizing many idioms quite well.”

”Of course, I’ve loved Huaxia literature since I was young!” Ziyan said arrogantly, not understanding what he meant.

”Heh heh.” And then, suddenly, Ye Haochuan laughed mischievously with a mocking tone, ”There’s also a poem from our Huaxia, ’I am the sun; your mom is Zhao Xianglu,’ describing someone like you.”

At his words, Ziyan was immediately bemused. She was fond of Huaxia literature and had studied numerous ancient poems but had never come across such a verse.

Kou Jing tilted her head, quickly catching on and couldn’t help but snicker, playfully hitting Ye Haochuan. What exactly goes on in the mind of this rascal to come up with such things!

Zhang Zongyao, growing impatient, spoke up again, ”Young man, you’d better be clear. If you truly are sure you can heal my nephew, I’ll let you give it a try!”

Pausing, his voice took on a more sinister tone as he warned, ”But if you dare to deceive me, the consequences will be beyond what you can bear!”

Waving his hand dismissively, Ye Haochuan didn’t take his threat seriously at all and laughingly said, ”Don’t worry, just half an hour and I will have him wake up!”

This statement once again caused a wave of astonishment among the onlookers.

”What are you joking about! Even if we were to perform the surgery, it would take at least several hours to complete, and you’re claiming you can make the patient wake up in half an hour, do you think you’re a god?” You Diandiao scoffed.

Several hours would only account for the surgery time, and as for fully waking up, who knew how long that would actually take.

It wasn’t just him; others also had looks of derision, truly believing that Ye Haochuan had come to make jokes, his claims utterly unbelievable!
