Chapter 2063

Li Yalin's blurted-out sentence made An Chongqiu's face turn black.

However, he picked up his wine glass calmly, took a big gulp, and then smacked his lips, saying lightly, "The idiot you're talking about is me."

Li Yalin looked at him dumbfounded and blurted out, "Grass! What's the situation? You were scammed by someone?"

"No." An Chongqiu waved his hand, mocking himself with the alcohol, "Scammed? I fucking bid 370 billion US dollars, and I was dying to kneel down for them on the spot, but they just wouldn't sell it to me and even kicked me out of the auction venue."

Li Yalin felt his worldview had been overturned and subconsciously asked, "What kind of medicine... can be worth 370 billion US dollars? What is the concept of 300 billion... Alibaba's market value today is only 292.8 billion US dollars, which means, even if you put the entire Alibaba in, you still fucking can't trade for one pill?!"

An Chongqiu said very seriously, "You can't trade for it. If I could have traded for it, I would have done it long ago; I wouldn't even have surname An if I had frowned."

After saying that, An Chongqiu looked at Li Yalin and asked curiously, "You're a policeman, how come you're so concerned about stocks? Playing the stock market?"

Li Yalin gave a wry smile and waved his hands, "Don't fucking mention it. I had some savings, bought all the stocks of this company, and up to now, I've lost more than half."

An Chongqiu cursed, "Grass, you should have fucking told me if you were playing the stock market. I could have leaked some news to you, and whether you shorted or went long, I would have guaranteed you'd make several times the profit!"

Li Yalin said seriously, "You know me. I don't have much money, but I have so much integrity I don't know where to use it. Besides, I'm a federal police officer. If I were still playing the stock market based on inside information, that would be knowing the law and breaking it, and the FBI would investigate me."

"True." An Chongqiu shook his head and sighed, "I told you long ago, don't be a policeman; there's no point. You just wouldn't listen."

Li Yalin waved his hand, "Don't talk about me anymore. Let's talk about that medicine of yours. What on earth is it that can fucking be worth 300 billion US dollars?"

An Chongqiu's expression showed a bit of fascination as he said, "It is a kind of... divine medicine that can cure all diseases in the body, make withered wood spring again, and make people turn back time by twenty years..."

Li Yalin frowned, "How can there be such a miraculous thing? You've watched too many movies, right?"

An Chongqiu smiled, "You haven't seen it with your own eyes, so no matter how I say it, you won't believe it. But when you see its effects with your own eyes, you will be prostrate with admiration just like me."

As he spoke, An Chongqiu narrated the situation he had seen with his own eyes at the Rejuvenation Pill auction that day to Li Yalin.

After Li Yalin finished listening, he was stunned and blurted out, "It's truly fucking incredible... that there is such a magical thing in this world, magical to the point that you can't think of it having anything to do with any scientific basis. I feel like all the books I read in the United States were fucking read in vain."

An Chongqiu smiled, "That's why I said just now that many things we feel are unlikely might not be problems with the things themselves, but just that we don't know enough."

Li Yalin sighed and said, "If there really were such medicine, my old man might be able to live a few more years, but it's no use anyway; even if there were, I couldn't afford it."

After finishing, he remembered something, looked at An Chongqiu, and asked, "Why did you go to buy this thing? Who is it for?"

An Chongqiu sighed lightly, "Buying it for the old man. His symptoms of Alzheimer's are getting more and more serious now."

"Alzheimer's?" Li Yalin blurted out, "That's senile dementia, right?! When did Uncle An get this disease?"

An Chongqiu sighed, "He's had the disease for more than two years. At first, it was discovered that he was relatively easy to forget things. Sometimes he would just put something down and forget where he put it in the blink of an eye; he would just say something and forget it in the blink of an eye, then say it again; or you would say something to him, he would understand it at the time, and then turn around and ask you again..."

"At that time, we had already had the best experts intervene, and we also took him to do some systematic training to fight the illness, but the cause of this disease is the functional decline of the brain, so there is no effective treatment in medicine either. Afterwards, his condition kept deteriorating."

Speaking of this, An Chongqiu said with a bitter smile, "You say this disease is also fucking strange. The closer things are, the less you can remember, but the further things are, the more clearly you remember them. The old man's condition later developed to the point where the last four or five years were a blank. My son clearly had a great-grandson for him, but he always felt my son wasn't married yet, and every time he saw him, he urged him to get married quickly. Later, the condition continued to deteriorate, and he couldn't remember things from the last ten years. When he saw my son again, he didn't recognize him, because in his memory, my son was in the state of that young man ten years ago..."

Li Yalin couldn't help but sigh upon hearing this, "Uncle An is a hero among Chinese people worldwide, tough and strong his whole life. Getting this disease is truly a great torture for him..."
