Chapter 27: Healing Injuries
Dahuo ultimately did not choose to go to Hu Ye, that was a south-north mismatch. His injury could only be treated by Su Nan, and it would be a waste of effort to look for other methods without finding the right person.
Although Sunan is a bit ruthless, his terms are clear: 50 million plus three conditions. Although I don't know what the conditions are, judging from his character, Sunan doesn't seem like a cruel and evil person, so the conditions shouldn't be too harsh. Moreover, they're already mixed up in society, why would they still be afraid of trouble?
Agreeing with Su Nan, although the days will be tough for a while, they still have their freedom and things will get better after some time. But if he goes to rely on Hu Ye, Da Hei will also disappear from the world, after all, the waters of Fei Hu Bang are too deep, and Da Hei is just a small stone that can't even make a splash when thrown in.
After discussing their next move with Zhou Ying, Su Nan and she went to submit their resignation letters together on the second day of work.
Yesterday, Zhou Ying accompanied Zhao to entertain clients for dinner, and many people in the company knew about it, including Gou Changren. This morning, Gou Changren took a leave of absence and didn't come to work. At first, no one suspected anything, but after seeing Zhou Ying's resignation letter, everyone couldn't help but speculate wildly. Moreover, Su Nan also submitted his resignation together with Zhou Ying, and the crowd came up with numerous versions of the story.
Zhao knew about Zhou Ying's situation and saw that she had adopted such a drastic approach to express her anger, so he didn't dare to go and persuade her. As for Su Nan's resignation, on the one hand, he wanted to try his best to keep him, but on the other hand, Su Nan had new ideas and also looked down on Zhao's character, not wanting to see such a person again, and didn't even give him face, directly throwing down the resignation letter and returning to the office to pack up his things.
Su Nan and Zhou Ying packed up their belongings and left the company directly, without any nostalgia. As they walked out of the office building and stood in the square, Su Nan's phone rang again.
"Su Nan, that big black guy has come to find me again," Chen Tong said. "He asked me to tell you that he completely agrees with your conditions and wants to see you in person. He asks if you have time, and if so, he'd like to meet you at noon today."
"Hmm." Su Nan responded with a sound, unexpectedly Da Hei made his choice earlier than he had anticipated, it seemed that he was indeed a man who knew when to act and was decisive in his actions.
On the other side, Chen Tong heard Su Nan's reply, paused for a moment, and estimated that he was explaining to Da Hei. After a while, her voice rang out again, "Su Nan, Da Hei said it's still at the same place as last time, they're waiting for you there."
"Chen Tong, just tell them to wait and I'll go over there later." Su Nan agreed. Since Di Dahai had made his choice, he didn't waste any more time and settled the matter. Zhou Ying's business funds also found a solution.
"Hang up the phone, Su Nan directly said to Zhou Ying: "Do you have anything to do at noon? If not, follow me to eat and take care of the store's funds."
"Really?" Upon hearing Su Nan's words, Zhou Ying, who was still feeling anxious, immediately felt at ease. She really hadn't expected that as soon as she resigned, Su Nan would have already prepared the money he had borrowed from her. It was truly unexpected that as a newcomer to the city, he actually possessed such ability.
"Of course. Let's go, I'll treat you to lunch at noon and celebrate the start of our new life." Su Nan nodded and gave Zhou Yi a firm smile.
Tianhua Hotel, Hei was anxiously waiting there. In just a few days, his face had become noticeably thinner, with high cheekbones and sunken eyes, the eyeballs covered in bloodshot lines. The arm that had been dislocated was even more severely swollen, unable to fit into the sleeve, and could only be wrapped in a piece of cloth.
When Su Nan led Zhou Ying to the hotel, Da Hei and his gang were all looking at Zhou Ying with some surprise. Was this Su Nan's girlfriend? Then what about Chen Tong in school? Wasn't it because of Yuan Lin and Su Nan's rivalry that caused this trouble? But they didn't dare to say or ask anything randomly. Last time, they had already learned about Su Nan's temper, which was to leave immediately without saying a word, not even leaving room for discussion. If they provoked him again this time, Da Hei's arm might have to be considered for amputation.
"Mr. Su——" Dahei came over to greet Sunan with a bit of embarrassment.
"No need to say more, have you thought it through and are you ready to accept my terms?" Su Nan asked with a wave of his hand, directly questioning Da Hei.
"Yes, whatever Mr. Su says goes." Dahei's face turned red with rage, but he dared not show his discontent. Having lost an arm, he had also lost the qualification to mix in Pucheng.
"Alright, stand still and bear the pain." Su Nan didn't say much more, pulled out a needle case, and took out several silver needles from inside.
Let Dahei sit well, roll up his sleeves, and Sunan's silver needle flashed, piercing several acupoints on his shoulder.
"Hmm~~~"
Da Hei took a deep breath of cold air, and his whole body began to tremble. After those few silver needles pierced into him in Sunan, Da Hei felt as if countless insects were biting his arm, and he could even feel the sound of his own bones being gnawed by an eerie "crunching" noise, fear filling his heart completely.
Others didn't have the same feeling as Dahei, they just saw that after being stabbed by Sunan's silver needle, Dahei's face suddenly turned pale, and his eyes showed a fearful expression. Although they didn't know what he was experiencing, they were infected by his emotions, their hearts also felt a chill, and they unconsciously huddled together, forming a tight group, relying on each other.
A foul odor emanated from Da Hei's arm, and his swollen arm, which had resembled a steamed bun, began to shrink at a visible rate, slowly returning to its normal thickness. However, his palm became even more swollen than before.
"Bring me a cup," said Su Nan.
The second elder standing beside hastily ran to the table and took a glass cup.
"Alright." Su Nan instructed, then took out a silver needle, poured in his inner power, and made the needle body hard. He grabbed Da Hei's wrist and drew a line on each of his five fingers.
The blood shot out from the gash, its color had turned black, emitting a foul odor that made one want to vomit. Old Second, holding his cup, was caught off guard and almost got knocked over by the smell.
"Steady!" Su Nan shouted at him in dissatisfaction. He stretched out his hand and touched Lao Er's body, fixing him in place so he couldn't move.
When the cup was half full, the color of the blood began to turn red and it no longer spurted out but instead dripped down drop by drop. Only then did Su Nan nod his head and take another silver needle to prick into Da Hei's wrist.
"Alright, go to the bathroom and deal with this blood clot." He reached out and brushed off Lao Er's body, unblocking his acupoints, and casually instructed him. Su Nan then took out a jade bottle the size of a walnut from his pocket and poured out an emerald green pill.
"Bring another cup and pour half a cup of wine into it." He instructed the younger brothers who were standing by, already stunned.
As the medicine dissolved in the wine, a refreshing fragrance wafted through the room, dispelling the stench of blood that had filled the air just moments before. The people in the room were all invigorated by it. Some even stared at the sparkling green liquid, swallowing their saliva repeatedly, and couldn't help but think about snatching it away to take a sip.
"When you put your fingers into the cup, remember to soak all the wounds in the wine." Su Nan said to Da Hei.
"Good." Dahei responded. The pain had dissipated, and his arm, which had lost feeling for several days, now regained its sensation. Dahei knew that Sunan's treatment was effective, and he believed more in what he said.
"One at a time is fine, each finger soaks for three minutes." The cup's mouth was relatively small, and seeing Da Hei struggling to put his whole hand into the cup, Su Nan reminded him again.
When Da Hei's fingers were soaked in wine, Su Nan was not idle either. From time to time, he would tap a few times on his arm and pinch a few times. After each action, Da Hei's face would reveal a comfortable expression.
When the color of the wine changed from green to white, Su Nan had Da Hei bring out his arm. Grabbing his hand, he straightened out that arm and with a light shake, a stream of internal energy shot out from Su Nan's hand into Da Hei's arm.
"Crack", "crack"......
A series of faint crackling sounds echoed in the room, as if countless mechanical parts were being connected one by one. Soon after a louder "click" sound, Su Nan put down his large black arm.
"Alright. Don't lift anything heavy for three days and you'll be as good as new." Su Nan said calmly, patting his hand.
"Alright, it's really alright!" Dahei swung his arms back and forth, left and right, repeatedly bending and straightening them. His hands were also clenched into fists and then opened again. An excited expression overflowed on his face.
"Thank you Mr Su, thank you Mr Su." Even in his excitement, Da Hei didn't forget to thank Su Nan.
"No need to thank me, it's just a transaction." Su Nan didn't take credit. What's there to be thanked for? It was purely self-inflicted. If they hadn't come to provoke him, none of these things would have happened. Of course, if they hadn't come to bother him, he wouldn't have made that 500,000 either, and for a while, he wouldn't have had the idea of using his medical skills to make money.
"Mr. Su, what's your bank account number? I'll transfer the money to you right away." Da Hei was excited, but he still remembered what he had to do.
After getting Sunan's bank account, Hei quickly transferred the money to Sunan through online banking. In a short while, Sunan also received an SMS reminder, and indeed, 500,000 yuan had been deposited into his account.
"The money has been transferred, as for those three things, just remember them for now, and when the time comes, I'll come find you." Su Nan said casually.
"Alright, Mr. Su, here's my phone number, please take it." Da Hei handed over a business card without hesitation. As for those three things, he never intended to shirk responsibility. Someone like Su Nan was not someone he could afford to offend. Rather than regretting it later, he might as well honestly listen to his words and complete the three tasks, which would truly resolve their conflict.
"Mr. Su, may I take note of your phone number so that we can look for you to treat us if we get injured in the future? Of course, as for the fee, we will follow whatever price Mr. Su quotes." Witnessing how his arm was "sentenced to death" by many hospitals but was cured directly after being treated with a few injections and some medicinal wine by Su Nan, Da Hei couldn't help but acknowledge that Su Nan's medical skills were exceptional. Even if he was the one who caused this injury, it didn't hinder him from having remarkable medical skills.
