Chapter 819: Father and Son Meet
"Because no matter how I look at it, it doesn't look like a miscarriage; an accidental miscarriage wouldn't have such intense resentment."
"This... I admit, it wasn't an accidental miscarriage. My wife is almost forty, we weren't planning on having children, it was an accident, so we got rid of it." The man lowered his head, only then speaking the truth.
"That's it then." Chen Yu nodded slightly and said, "That child of yours must have gone through great hardships to come into this world, and you and your wife essentially abandoned him."
"So this sore is actually related to him in some way; it's hard to cure with ordinary medicine."
"Then what should I do?" The man was so scared his face turned pale. In truth, he still hadn't told the whole truth; that woman wasn't his wife, but his mistress.
The mistress wanted to give birth to the child to blackmail him, so he had secretly given her abortion pills, which was why this unborn child was filled with resentment.
His leg had been viciously pinched by the child before it left; this was the true Ghost Hand Sore, and it would likely be very difficult to cure with ordinary medicine.
Chen Yu took out a bowl of water and then produced a Talisman. With a flick of his hand, the Talisman Paper ignited on its own. Chen Yu shook the burning Talisman in his hand and then dissolved it into the water.
"Drink half of this Talisman Water and spray the other half on the affected area; it will be better soon." Chen Yu said, "However, your child has resentment in his heart. Within ten days, you must go to a temple with thriving incense to perform a rite of deliverance for him to dispel the foul energy."
"Is this really going to work?" Looking at the bowl of clear water in his hand, the man's expression was somewhat doubtful; he wasn't sure if this thing was truly effective.
"Whether it works or not, won't you know if you try? If you think there's a better place to see a doctor, please feel free to go." Chen Yu said indifferently.
"Hey, are you going to see the doctor or not? If you're not, move aside; we still need to be seen." Someone behind him was already impatient.
"That's right, you're just wasting time. Hurry up, there are many people waiting behind."
Seeing that the people in line behind him were already impatient, the man no longer hesitated. He gritted his teeth, drank half of the clear water in his bowl, held the other half in his mouth, and sprayed it a few times onto the sore on his leg.
Then, a scene that astonished him occurred; he saw the sore on his leg slowly disappear as the Talisman Water was sprayed on it.
Moreover, the wound on the affected area slowly healed, and this scene left the man dumbfounded.
"It's healed, the wound is really healed."
"It's too miraculous, Talismans can actually treat illnesses too."
"That's right, Li Lao used to prescribe Talismans, but everyone treated it as superstition. I didn't expect this Talisman Water to really be able to cure illnesses."
The crowd waiting for treatment was excited. They never imagined that the method of treating illnesses could be so magical—no injections, no medicine, just drinking a bowl of water.
"Everyone, the Zhu You branch of medicine has existed since ancient times, but many methods have been lost. If something can be solved with a Talisman, Li Lao will certainly use Talisman Water to solve it. If Talisman Water cannot solve it, one must still trust in modern medicine." Chen Yu smiled and said, "Talismans can treat illnesses, but they cannot cure everything. Everyone must remember that clearly."
"Remembered clearly. Little Doctor Chen, please take a look at me too."
"Right, this method is too magical, I want to try it too."
"Everyone, don't be anxious. Line up properly; everyone will be seen." Chen Yu smiled slightly.
Thus, these patients all went to line up. Today's events spread from ten to a hundred, and from now on, no one would doubt Li Lao's Talisman arts anymore.
It wasn't until noon that the patients gradually dispersed, and Chen Yu also offered his farewells.
At the entrance of the hospital, a Bentley was parked to one side.
The Bentley's window was open, and Qiu Yanfang was looking out.
The space inside this extended-length car was extremely large; besides Qiu Yanfang, Chen Anyi was also sitting inside.
The current Chen Anyi had swept away his previous decadent feeling; he was in a suit and leather shoes, his beard and hair groomed, looking very much like a successful person.
Except for his spirit being somewhat listless, his attire and grooming were very appropriate.
He sat in the car without saying a word, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Your son is about to come out; aren't you looking forward to it at all?" Qiu Yanfang glanced at Chen Anyi, revealing a look of contempt.
Chen Anyi coughed a few times: "What is there to look forward to?"
"Chen Anyi, I've discovered that you are truly a ruthless person. Heh, this is your son whom you've never met, separated for decades, and your emotions haven't fluctuated at all?" Qiu Yanfang sneered: "You are truly cold-blooded."
Chen Anyi continued to cough; he was breathing slightly heavily, his lungs sounding like a bellows, wheezing away.
"Take this medicine, so you don't look like a consumptive ghost when you see your son." Qiu Yanfang's brows locked; she took a pill from the refrigerator under the seat and handed it to Chen Anyi.
Chen Anyi said nothing; he took the pill and swallowed it directly.
After swallowing the medicine, his complexion slowly became ruddy, and his coughing stopped. His breathing was steady, and he was full of energy; compared to just a moment ago, he was like a different person.
"That's right, this is what a father should look like." Qiu Yanfang giggled: "I've let you keep your dignity in front of your son, don't be ungrateful."
"Then I should thank you." Chen Anyi's voice had no fluctuation, but from the depths of his eyes, a trace of anticipation could be seen.
He was masking it; after all, it was his own flesh and blood. A son he had never met made him expectant and nervous, but in front of this woman, he had to hide everything about himself.
"He's out, go see him." Watching a figure appear at the hospital entrance, Qiu Yanfang's expression became somewhat expectant.
Chen Anyi looked at that figure, his face becoming somewhat flushed. He tried his best to hide the excitement in his heart, then slowly stepped out of the car.
Chen Yu walked out of the hospital door. Originally, he was going to leave, but the person walking toward him made his footsteps slow down.
His gaze locked onto this man, unable to look away any longer.
The man was in a well-fitting custom suit, his posture straight. He slowly walked to Chen Yu and stopped.
The two looked at each other, and a feeling of blood being thicker than water surged from Chen Yu's body.
Chen Anyi had a face full of smiles. He looked at his son, and a sense of pride surged from his heart.
His son was already this big; this was the first time he had seen him.
"Who are you?" Chen Yu stared at Chen Anyi. In fact, he already had the answer in his heart, but he just wanted this person to admit his identity himself.
"I am your father, Chen Anyi." Chen Anyi smiled and said: "I think you should already have the answer in your heart."
"What are you here for?" Chen Yu looked at Chen Anyi.
"Nothing, I heard you were back, so I wanted to come and see you." Chen Anyi kept smiling.
"Now that you've seen me, can you go?" Chen Yu said indifferently.
