Sylvia did not mind Dustin’s indifference. She had not stopped speaking the entire way home. As a reporter, it was simple for her to find topics to talk about.Meanwhile, Dustin was not a cold person either. He always tends to joke around. The two of them bonded as they interacted.It was nearly dark, and the place was illuminated by the distant lights.“Listen, since you’re so strong, why are you afraid of him? I can’t fight him since I’m a woman. If I have your abilities, I will definitely beat him.” Sylvia complained in Dustin’s stead.She had stood out front for the entire day while Dustin guarded the entrance the whole day. Looking at Dustin’s appeasing and slightly dull appearance, Sylvia felt somewhat sad for him.“Jason! He will go on his knees within three seconds.” Dustin rubbed his chin, then purposely paused when reaching this sentence. He then added these words when Sylvia stared at him admiringly. “He’ll beg for me not to die,” Dustin spoke earnestly.No sane person
The doctor had settled down after hearing that Jason cured her. This also made Icy and Ellie realize Jason’s influence in the First Hospital.Aside from the directors of each department, even the dean personally visited them. It was all because Jason personally arranged their checkup. The First Hospital had always wished to appease him.The dean even made the generous call to waive all medical fees.Jason already handled late-stage cancer and done surgeries that were impossible. Now, Jason had another accomplishment under his belt; he cured leukemia.Sadly, Jason hated the limelight. Otherwise, the First Hospital would skyrocket in popularity within the medical community throughout the world.Now, the First Hospital doctors did not question what Jason knew but questioned what he did not. They wondered if there were any diseases that Jason could not cure.Regardless, since Ellie was the first patient sent in by Jason, the First Hospital tended to Ellie to the best of their abiliti
“I just want an interview from you. Is it that hard?” Sylvia yelled at Jason as he left.“In another lifetime, maybe!” Jason responded decisively. A cloud of dust then stirred as Jason drove away.Jason showed up at the First Hospital and walked to his office. Lillian was playing with her phone out of boredom. Since she was assigned to serve Jason by the dean personally, she had nothing to do if Jason was absent. She was the only person that had so much free time at work.Lillian was obviously stunned when she saw Jason. “Director Sky, when did you arrive? I'm sorry, I didn’t know you would be coming.” Lillian stowed her phone urgently, then brushed her unkempt hair. She stared at Jason in trepidation.“It’s fine, and I’m not here to evaluate your performance,” Jason spoke to Lillian in exasperation.“Uh, is the dean here?” Jason asked.“He’s in a meeting. Just about all the directors are present too.” Lillian spoke.“Oh, How’s the condition of that old man?” Jason asked.“He’s
“Quiet!” The dean of the First Hospital gently coughed and spoke in a deep voice after seeing the argument between the various directors.The meeting room finally fell silent. Yet, their eyes stared at the medicine held in Lillian’s hands.“Lillian, what did Director Sky say?” The dean asked Lillian. Since it was Jason who provided it, they should ask for his input first.Lillian twitched around hearing those words, then raised her head. “This is what he said, ‘Lillian! Take the medical elixir and share it with all the departments!’” She said calmly.Yet, she stared at the orthopedics director, who was the man that criticized her just now. Since she was bullied, she will abuse power given to her. At most, she would just explain what happened to Jason, who, in her opinion, had a kind temperament.“Oh, I see. Nurse Lillian, since our dermatology department has many surgeries, I suppose we should get more.” The dermatology director smiled.“Shut up. Lillian, since Director Sky had a
Jason smiled helplessly when he saw Lilian sobbing. His rage had almost shocked everyone working in the First Hospital. Moreover, the dean of the First Hospital personally apologized, and scolded the orthopedics director.After the rebel had left, Jason finally figured out that it was Lillian who made this mistake.She had not realized that she had caused such a massive ruckus, as she looked incredibly pitiful in front of Jason.“He scolded you a little, and you decided to abuse your position. You sure are petty!” Jason calmly told Lillian; a hint of anger could be heard in his voice.“I don’t know it would cause such a massive issue. I’ve gotten ahead of myself. It’s my fault.” Lillian spoke pitifully.“All right, stop reflecting on your mistakes. I’m not bothered by it.” Jason flicked his hand.She raised her head and stared at Jason in disbelief.“Of course, only this once. Don’t do it again. But I should give you some authority. From now on, you can distribute the medicine I
As Icy went out to prepare medicine, Ellie followed. She cautiously approached Icy and whispered, “Icy, I have something to tell you.”Icy then cautiously glanced around, then nodded when she discovered Jason was absent. “Tell me.”Ellie could not help but be stunned at Icy’s cautiousness.“Icy, I want to stay here. Do you think Doctor Sky will approve?” Ellie whispered.“Did you fall in love with that b*stard?” Icy asked in surpriseIcy would describe him with curses like ‘b*stard’, ‘monster’, and demon king when Jason is not around.“No way.” Ellie blushed. “I want to stay behind to learn the medical arts from him. I’m better off learning from him instead of going to work in a hospital. Moreover, I am indebted to Doctor Sky, and I don’t know how to repay him. So, I’ll just work here for free. What do you think?” Ellie whispered.Icy glanced at her. “I have two important things to tell you. One, you better not have any intentions to repay with your body. Aside from his wife, he
“Is that necessary? Do you really want to hurt me this bad?” Jason looked indifferent, then told Icy in exasperation, “What are you looking at? Look at the time, where’s my food. You want me to die from starvation?”“The food will turn cold by the time I return. You can’t just eat fast food all the time!” Icy flicked her palm in helplessness.“Then go and cook!” Jason said.“Between me, you, and Dustin, who can actually cook?” Icy shrugged. It was already difficult for her to cook medicine; it would be impossible to have her cook. She had never used the kitchen despite being this old.Jason seemed more hopeless after glancing at Dustin, who stood outside.Ellie can cook, and she is good at cooking.” Icy blinked.“Don’t pull this on me, and I’ll deeply consider it. Now, go and buy me two fast food meals!” Jason ordered.Yet, Icy smirked as she turned around. She knew that he had not directly denied it but instead said that he would consider it meant that it was close to success.
“Spare… me.” Dustin spoke in difficulty as he knelt on the floor. The pain he felt was torturous.“How do you feel?” Jason smiled.“Pain, so painful,” Dustin spoke with difficulty. Within a moment, his face contorted as he sweated profusely.“Feeling pain is good. It’s to train your will. Although you are talented, your resolve isn’t firm enough. Remember, before you can master the ‘sixth style’, you have to be in pain for an hour every day.” Jason calmly told Dustin.He then entered inside, leaving Dustin to struggle in pain. Jason was familiar with the human’s meridian points and knew countless ways to torture someone. In comparison, Dustin’s suffering was considered something common that could be endured. Yet, it was enough for him to remember it deeply.Jason did not know if his methods were too cruel since he felt hesitant to do it at first. Yet after feeling that Dustin was growing immune to his strikes after growing resilient, he had to go for a more extreme method. It was
