Chapter 17: Kim Jong Kook's Trouble

  Since feeling unwell and being hospitalized, from initial consciousness to unbearable pain, he has been hovering between life and death. Chui Zhen-shan, who had always thought that he would not live beyond his current age, also felt that he might not be able to escape this calamity. During his stay in the hospital, when he was conscious, he saw famous doctors from home and abroad invited by his son, but they were all helpless against his illness.

  Even the famous doctors who were invited couldn't even control the deterioration of his condition, and Choi Jin-san fell into a coma in despair. Until Han Ankang appeared, using the ancient acupuncture technique, inputting the pure yang true energy cultivated, suppressing the yin evil energy in his body.

  Choi Jin-sung, who felt reborn, was naturally overwhelmed with emotions. The first thing he wanted to do after waking up was to personally thank the divine doctor who gave him a new lease on life. But unexpectedly, this divine doctor turned out to be so young!

  The Chinese nation is still the Chinese nation, that land of wonders and talents, which cannot be compared to South Korea. The old man suppressed his confusion and said sincerely: "Chui's town thanks Master Han for saving our lives!"

  In the face of the old man's gratitude, Han Ankang replied calmly: "I am a doctor, saving lives and treating injuries is my duty. This time you were able to wake up, to a large extent, you should thank your son's filial piety. If he hadn't frantically sought medical help and found me to come and treat you, I'm afraid this time it would have been dangerous for you."

  All I want to tell you is that it's inconvenient for me to treat and help your body recover here, so I took the liberty of asking you to be discharged from the hospital. Find a place where you can see sunlight every day, and I'll carefully nurse you back to health, striving to restore your original health as much as possible.

  This illness has damaged your body's vital energy, and if you don't take good care of yourself, at your advanced age, I'm afraid you'll be left with chronic illness. In the future, when I'm no longer around, I reckon there will be some trouble. Therefore, from now on, you must also cooperate with the treatment!

  Han Ankang genuinely treated him as a patient, rather than like the experts before who had to consider his identity as the head of the Cui family when speaking. This made Cui Zhen Shan truly understand that this young man was worth his family's efforts to befriend, simply based on his demeanor. After all, a medical master who could snatch people from the hands of the King of Hell wasn't someone you could easily buy over with money!

  Although Choi Jin-san, who had previously accepted his fate, was not afraid of death. He might live a few more years, but he wouldn't rush to die. Moreover, at his level of identity, being alive often has an immeasurable impact on the family. Therefore, regarding Han Ahn-kang's words, Choi Jin-san also expressed his full cooperation with the treatment. If there was anything needed, the Choi family would also cooperate fully.

  After reaching a consensus, Han Ankang clearly knew that Choi Jin-san's current vitality was largely due to the pure yang energy infused into his body. If he really thought it would be cured with just one treatment, then this disease wouldn't be considered a strange and bizarre illness that only Taoist doctors could treat.

  The silver needles that had stopped trembling on Cui Lao's body were quickly withdrawn in the reverse order of their insertion, wiped clean and put back into the needle case. Han Ankang, disregarding the foul smell of black blood on Cui Lao's body, supported him as he drank the ginseng water from the cup.

  He then said to Cui Lao, "Take a good rest," and pressed his forehead. What shocked Cui Zhihao was that his father, who had been in good spirits just before, really did blink and fall asleep in less than a few seconds.

  It's clear that not every doctor can do this kind of surgery, and Cui Zhihao's respect for Han Ankang grew even more. After asking Han Ankang, he agreed to send someone to transfer Cui Zhen Shan, and he also hurriedly sent the hospital's elite medical staff. They carefully placed Cui Zhen Shan, who was in a state of sleep, onto a stretcher and smoothly pushed him into the ambulance.

  Han Ankang, who was left with two nurses to care for him and didn't need such a large group of people to take care of him, put on that slightly outdated travel bag again and got back into Cui Zhihao's dedicated car, leaning against the back seat and closing his eyes to rest.

  Knowing that Han Ahn-kang had just exhausted Choi Ji-ho, it was hard not to disturb Han Ahn-kang, but instead let Kim Jong-guk take a look. He got into the bodyguard's car and left Seoul National Hospital for the first time with a relaxed expression under the eyes of many experts.

  As they watched the convoy disappear into the distance, the leaders and experts of Seoul National Hospital also felt a sense of loss. However, being able to witness this ancient medical technique that has been lost in China, they felt extremely honored. At least they understood one thing from Han An-kang, which is that the traditional Chinese medicine of China is indeed far beyond their comprehension, full of mystery.

  As Choi Jin-san was transferred, several top South Korean families who had been paying attention to his condition soon learned that the originally almost hopeless Choi family head had fortunately been pulled back from the brink of death by a Chinese doctor with Taoist true energy.

  According to hospital experts, after one treatment, Choi Jong-seok made a rare appearance with clear consciousness and normal thinking. This means that the rumors that Choi Jong-seok was unlikely to escape this calamity will likely change.

  It was further learned that this Huaxia divine doctor was the one that the entertainment circle stars had been looking for, who had a close relationship with Jin Zhongguo. Many large families with patients, in addition to contacting Cui Zhihao, also hoped that Jin Zhongguo could introduce them to such a miraculous doctor. For a time, the news of Huaxia having a divine doctor in South Korea spread throughout the entertainment circle and major households.

  When the Choi family's convoy arrived at a scenic private estate in the suburbs of Seoul, Han Ah-rang, who had sensed that the car had stopped, also woke up from his meditation. After getting off the bus, he looked around and thought it was great. He instructed the nurse who followed from the hospital and the caregivers waiting at the estate to take care of him.

  Put Choi Jun-san, who was still asleep, in a room that could be exposed to sunlight. Tell the caregivers of the Choi family not to wake up Choi Jun-san, who is sleeping, and wait until he wakes up naturally before calling him again.

  After settling everything, when Han Ankang came out of the temporary room that had been converted into a sickroom, he saw Kim Jong-kook, who had just let out a sigh of relief, holding his phone with a bitter expression again.

  After inquiring, it was another group of people who had learned about the situation and wanted to ask him to treat their illness. Han Ankang also showed some anger and said: "What's wrong with these people? Do they think it's interesting to bully others like this? Where is Director Cui?"

  Choi Ji-ho, who was also being bombarded with phone calls from various families and was at his wit's end, quickly rushed over after a servant inquired about him. Seeing Han Ahn-kang's angry expression again, he also saw Kim Jong-guk standing by with a bitter look on his face, and he understood what had happened.

  "So, don't worry, Master Han. My family will take care of the trouble I've brought you. As for Kim Jong Kook, with me taking care of him, no one else will dare to cause him any more trouble. So please rest assured, this matter won't affect Kim Jong Kook's career in the entertainment industry, I guarantee it!"

  With this promise, Kim Jong-kook finally let out a long-held breath of relief. In the face of Choi Ji-ho's promise, although he didn't understand how ruthless the behind-the-scenes struggles between big shots were these days, Han Ahn-gang at least understood that refusing all help from the Choi family would undoubtedly make the Choi family enemies on all sides among the noble families.

  Considering that he would be driven out whether he was one sheep or two, he decided to return to China as soon as possible after treating the mountain in Chui Town. Otherwise, it would cause more trouble like last time in the village, which would really be a headache. Although he was not afraid of these Korean aristocratic families causing trouble, Han Ankang still understood that less is better than more.

  Han Ankang thought for a moment before saying, "Alright! I know the people who called you must have some background and identity. As a doctor, refusing to save lives and treat injuries is somewhat against the principles of medical ethics. However, my medical skills are not that outstanding either, and I'm not capable of curing all patients."

  I'll give you ten quotas, and you can bring in ten patients for treatment here. However, it's best if these patients have relatively difficult-to-cure illnesses. If they can be cured elsewhere, there's no need to come bother me. Also, I'd like to make one thing clear beforehand: I won't refuse those who can be cured, and you can't blame me for those who can't be cured.

  It's the same old saying, I'm not a miracle doctor, and it's impossible to cure any disease. At least for now, terminal illnesses like cancer, leukemia, AIDS, etc., I am also powerless. So, if there are patients with such conditions who want to seek medical treatment, just refuse them directly."

  When Han Ankang suddenly spoke out and gave ten quotas, Cui Zhihao was overjoyed and also clearly saw that the boy in front of him, although hot-tempered, was truly revealing his emotions. Perhaps in Han Ankang's view, the ten medical treatment quotas were not a big deal, but for the aristocratic families who valued benefit exchange, these ten quotas would bring great benefits to the Cui family, and even Cui Zhihao did not dare to imagine how much.

  After saying a few more apologetic words, Choi Ji-ho quickly turned around and went to return the calls of those families who had asked for his help earlier. After inquiring about the medical information of the patients in their households, he decided to first collect all this information and then hand it over to Han Ahn-kang to select. As for who would be lucky enough to get a spot, Choi Ji-ho frankly told them that it was entirely up to luck.

  As for these family heads and influential young masters, it's naturally not good to say much more. After thanking Cui Zhihao, they hastily handed over the medical records of their ailing family members and ordered their subordinates to personally deliver them to the Cui estate, where that renowned doctor from Huaxia would select the patients. Once the quota was confirmed, they would send the patients there for treatment by that divine doctor. As for the payment after successful treatment, that would need to be discussed with the Cui family at a later time.

  Having obtained Choi Ji-ho's promise to ward off the harassment of those in power, Kim Jong-kook also felt a bit stifled staying here and soon bid farewell to Han Ahn-kang. After all, Kim Jong-kook was very clear that he was just an artist, and this kind of power struggle in high society was not something he wanted to participate in, nor did he dare to participate in it. It was better to be an artist again, which was the life that truly belonged to him.

  It's already a great fortune to be able to get to know Han Ahn-kang. He also wouldn't dare think that he could gain something through this friendship. Moreover, Kim Jong-guk understood that Han Ahn-kang was willing to vouch for him largely because of his sincerity.

  If he really treats his friendship with Han An-kang as a benefit to exchange with others, Jin Zhong-guo understands that the day he loses Han An-kang's true treatment is the moment he sets himself on fire. Being able to clearly realize this point, it must be said that Jin Zhong-guo is a smart and rational star artist.
