“I rose from the grass roots, and along the way, I saw people fighting and scheming for fame and gain.

This has long become my instinct.”

Liu Zhenhao stood up straight, sincerity written all over his face: “I’ve never seen a noble person like Mr.

Lin who regards fame and fortune as dirt.

I sincerely apologize for any offense.”

It’s no wonder Liu Zhenhao managed to rise from the grass-roots!

His words not only praised himself but also apologized and provided the perfect excuse for his mistake.

The mistake wasn’t in my methods, but in the people of this world who seek fame and fortune.

So I use money to manipulate and enslave them.

You are a noble person, unlike them!

I treated you with the methods I use for ordinary people, so it is my mistake.

I am willing to apologize!

Since Liu Zhenhao had already bowed down and apologized, Lin Chen naturally wouldn’t dwell on it.

He vented his anger and dealt with the child who was infected with the Blood-burning Gu.

The child couldn’t wait too long, or there could be problems.

“Do you have paper and a pen?”

Secretary Zhang Lin quickly opened a notebook and handed it over along with a pen.

Lin Chen took them over and rapidly wrote down a list of medicinal materials and their quantities.

He handed it to Liu Zhenhao: “These are the medicinal materials we need.

Also, prepare a large pot for boiling the medicine, a large bathtub with a lid, and a large bucket of ice, a high-precision thermometer.

I’ll come over tomorrow morning.”

Liu Zhenhao carefully accepted the list and asked cautiously, “Mr.

Lin, can my grandson’s illness be cured?”

Lin Chen nodded: “One treatment will do, but the process might be a bit uncomfortable.”

Liu Zhenhao breathed a sigh of relief: “It doesn’t matter if it’s uncomfortable, as long as it can be cured, we’re not afraid of suffering.”

Lin Chen waved his hand: “Alright, go back.”

Liu Zhenhao turned his head and stretched out his hand.

Zhang Lin handed him a box.

Liu Zhenhao held it with both hands and gave it to Lin Chen: “Mr.

Lin, this is a token of my gratitude.

Please accept it.”

Lin Chen turned to leave without even stretching out his hand: “We’ll talk about it after he’s cured.”

Liu Zhenhao stood up straight and watched Lin Chen enter the residential area.

He then turned his head in a heavy voice: “Prepare right away, everything must be ready tonight.”

Zhang Lin respectfully answered: “Yes, I’ll go right away!”

Nothing happened overnight.

After having breakfast, Lin Chen drove directly to the hotel.

Liu Zhenhao’s family had been waiting for a long time, and all the medicinal materials and equipment Lin Chen had requested were ready.

Lin Chen immediately began preparing, instructing everyone to process the medicinal materials, then boiling them, finally getting a pot of boiling medicinal liquid.

He poured the liquid into the bathtub, put the thermometer in, and waited for the liquid to cool down to a temperature that wouldn’t scald the child.

Then he put the child in the bathtub.

The child suddenly cried out in pain, but everyone knew this was a necessary process and had to endure the heartache.

As the medicine continued to boil, Lin Chen would add more liquid to the bathtub every ten minutes, maintaining a constant temperature.

The medicinal liquid gradually spread from the child’s legs, waist, and chest.

He submerged one of the child’s hands in the medicinal liquid and wrapped the other hand in crushed ice using a towel.

The medicinal liquid continued to be added, gradually covering the hand wrapped in the towel.

Finally, only the palm of the hand that didn’t touch the medicinal liquid and was wrapped in ice remained.

At this point, everyone could tell that Lin Chen was stimulating the child’s blood vessels with hot medicinal liquid, forcing the Gu worms in the blood vessels to move to the child’s arm.

“Bring a glass cup over to catch the dripping blood.”

Lin Chen made several small incisions at the ends of the blood vessels in the child’s hand and squeezed them.

Blood immediately dripped out.

After repeated squeezing, Lin Chen submerged the entire child’s arm in the boiling liquid, leaving only the incisions outside.

Ten minutes later, Lin Chen squeezed the incisions again and straightened up.

“He is alright!”

Lin Chen bandaged the incisions and handed the red-faced child to his mother: “The Gu worms in him should be gone.

Even if there are still some remnants, they won’t cause any harm to him.

The Blood-burning Gu won’t reproduce, and after a while, they will die naturally.”

“The medicinal liquid neutralizes the toxins of the Blood-burning Gu.

After soaking for so long, the toxins in his blood should also be neutralized.

He has been tormented by the Blood-burning Gu and has just been dealt with by me.

He is tired now, and so he might sleep for half-a-day.

He should be fine when he wakes up.”

Lin Chen turned his head and asked, “Do you have a magnifying glass?”

Zhang Lin immediately found a magnifying glass, but Lin Chen didn’t take it, instead, he gestured for him to hand it to Liu Zhenhao.

“You can take a look for yourself.”

Liu Zhenhao took the magnifying glass, tilted the glass cup, and looked closely.

His eyes suddenly widened, and he felt his scalp tingle and goosebumps all over his body.

Under the magnifying glass, in the pale red blood, numerous tiny bugs were crawling around at the bottom of the cup.

These bugs looked like ladybugs but had a pair of sharp, knife-like pincers.

Even with Liu Zhenhao’s fierce temperament, he couldn’t help but shudder.

At this point, Liu Zhenhao completely believed Lin Chen’s words.

His grandson had indeed been cursed with Gu!

He Chenggang had been silently observing the whole process and finally couldn’t help but ask: “President Liu, may I take a look?”

Liu Zhenhao turned his head, glanced at He Chenggang, and handed him the cup and magnifying glass.

He Chenggang took a look, and his face changed suddenly, mumbling: “This is Gu?”

Lin Chen explained: “Your statement the other day was not wrong.

Gu are poisonous bugs, but Blood-burning Gu are particularly small, making them hard to guard against.”

Liu Zhenhao’s face was grim, and he respectfully asked, “Mr.

Lin, what are the conditions for someone to use Blood-burning Gu on someone?”
