I Am Born With A Silver Spoon -
Chapter 457 Who Is He? Part 1
"Tuantuan, Momo! Why are you guys still here? Your grandma is preparing to leave for the mountain top, get over here and help!"
Right then, a middle-aged couple walked over and the woman instructed them.
"Alright, mum! We are going over right now!" the girls replied.
"Uncle! Aunty!"
Ma Xiaonan greeted the both of them respectfully when she saw them.
"Hmph! You're here too?" the middle-aged woman crossed her arms and said disdainfully.
Ma Xiaonan nodded, "Aunty, is grandma going to the mountains to see Master Zuo for her illness? How is her condition now? Is she okay?"
"Gosh! What are you trying to insinuate?!"
Ma Xiaonan's aunt's heart skipped a beat when she heard Ma Xiaonan.
"Stop asking about her sickness! I'm telling you Ma Xiaonan, Master Zuo only attends to one patient per treatment. Stop trying to take advantage of it!"
She was worried that Ma Xiaonan would request to bring her mother along.
However, Ma Xiaonan didn't have such intentions.
"Also, if you can't afford to, just take your mother back. We will just pay your hotel fees for you!" her aunt crossed her arms and said.
"Alright, alright. Stop it. Xiaonan, just go up and take care of your mother!"
Ma Xiaonan's uncle instructed lightly.
Then, they turned around and left with their children.
"Good morning, sir. Is this Meng Mountain, where Master Zuo resides?"
Right then, a well-dressed middle-aged man came out from an extended limo.
He looked at Liu Jiale and asked.
Liu Jiale was involved in the furnishing industry in the Southwest region.
He was a CEO too.
Naturally he had experienced many different spectacles.
So, when he saw the middle-aged man, he knew that this wasn't any ordinary man.
He immediately replied respectfully, "Yes, it is!"
"Alright, thanks!" The middle-aged man gave a slight nod.
"Uncle Da, how was it? It's here, right? Why aren't there any parking spots left?"
A young couple came down from the car too.
The man who was dressed in a business suit walked over and asked.
The man was handsome. The girls he walked past felt their breaths hitch a little.
This man was just too handsome.
The girl next to him was tall and lean. She gave off a boyish vibe.
Although her beauty was impeccable, the cold and distant look on her face seemed to make the temperature around her drop a little. "Yeah, it is here!" Uncle Da nodded.
Liu Jiale looked at the young man, then gave him a smile and nodded.
Tuantuan and Momo behind him looked at the young man with lingering stares. However, the man did not spare them any glances.
"Whose electric trike is this? I want it moved so that we can park our car here!"
The man loosened his tie and looked around. Finally, he pointed at Chen Hao's electric trike and instructed.
The guards at the entrance of the hotel heard him and ran over to push the trike to a side.
The trike hit a rock before it finally stopped moving.
Momo, Tuantuan and the others couldn't help but burst into sniggers when they saw that.
"You guys!" Ma Xiaonan flushed. What did they mean by that?
Chen Hao pulled on Xiaonan's arm and shook his head.
"Uncle Da, let's bring grandfather up!"
At this moment, the cold and distant looking girl spoke.
They watched as two people helped an ill-looking elderly man out of the car and up the mountain.
"Alright, let's move along!" Liu Jiale announced.
"I'm so sorry that you had to be humiliated along with me, Chen Hao," Ma Xiaonan apologized guiltily. "What are you even talking about? Let's go and get your mother!" Chen Hao responded.
"Huh? What for?"
"To see Zuo Zhongtao so that he can treat your mother, of course!" Chen Hao laughed wryly.
He didn't have any herbs with him. Moreover, the hotel wasn't a suitable environment for treatment. It was probably better for her to be settled down at Zuo Zhongtao's place. If it weren't so, Chen Hao would have treated her himself.
"Are you saying that we should go and see Master Zuo? But Chen Hao, didn't you tell me just now that you aren't Young Master Chen anymore?"
Ma Xiaonan didn't mean to pry; she was just curious.
She didn't expect Chen Hao to have any connections here.
"Haha, what? Just because I'm not Young Master Chen anymore I can't have connections?" Chen Hao chuckled, "Alright, let's go!"
By the time Chen Hao and Ma Xiaonan managed to bring her mother up the mountain, it was already crowded with people.
After all, Master Zuo was popular among the masses. Rumors had it that he was offered a large amount of money to work for a rich family but he rejected them instead.
"Sigh, how long do I still have to queue for? I've already paid 500,000 to be able to queue!" one of the merchants queuing questioned anxiously.
"Don't be too anxious. Most of the people that came here for treatment paid at least 100,000 for registration. Just be patient!" others advised.
The medical centre that was built on the mountain looked as if it was from ancient times.
Even the hall was constructed to look like an ancient medical hall.
The workers inside also wore outfits from the Tang Dynasty.
The whole place seemed surreal.
"Dad! I spent 300,000 and got us in the queue. We're number 45!"
Right at the moment, Liu Mo came with the registration number.
"Well, 300,000 it is! Sigh!" Liu Jiale smiled bitterly.
300,000 was just the registration fee. After the diagnosis, there would be an even higher fee!
"What? We need to pay to queue? And what's with the 100,000, 300,000 and 500,000 standards?
Suddenly, the cold girl that came up along with Liu Jiale questioned.
"Yeah, this is similar to auctioning. The highest bidder on the registration fee will be able to get their treatment first!"
"Oh. Then, what is the highest amount?" she asked.
"Hehe, pretty girl, you should look at the notice board over there. It shows the top three bidders as well as their registration fees. Hold on, let me take a look for you. Holy f*ck! The highest is 1,500,000!" One of Ma Xiaonan's cousins tried to be courteous.
"Thank you. Qingshu, take 5,000,000 to make a registration!"
The beautiful girl nodded. Then, she turned to the handsome young man and notified him.
"5,000,000?"
Upon hearing their casual conversation, everyone in the hall broke into loud whispers.
When everyone cooled down, they stared at the girl dumbfoundedly.
The young man named Qingshu had already paid 5,000,000 and came back with his receipt.
Naturally they became the first on the list.
"They're so rich!"
The crowd gasped.
Despite that, Liu Mo's eyes darted all around, observing the surroundings.
"Mother, look! They really followed us here!" Liu Mo suddenly pointed at Chen Hao, Ma Xiaonan, and her mother who were entering the place and exclaimed.
"Oh my God! Ma Xiaonan! Are you serious? Do you know what kind of place this is? How dare you follow us up here?!" Ma Xiaonan's aunt cried in agitation.
Why did it feel like Ma Xiaonan's family were sticking onto her like a leech?
Right when Ma Xiaonan's aunt prepared to insult Ma Xiaonan even further, one of the workers came out. "I'm so sorry, everyone! Our master will only take in two more patients before closing for today. Those other than the first two should go back now and come back tomorrow!"
"Wait, what? Come back tomorrow?"
Liu Jiale was shocked.
The others at the hall were stunned as well.
"No! We will not leave!"
All the rich merchants chimed in, "We will wait here for Master Zuo's consultation!"
"Please be considerate. We had to ask all of you to leave because there are too many people. It has become too noisy! There are still patients here that need their rest!"
"We will be quiet! Moreover, we had already paid so much for the registration!" all of the merchants crowded over and begged.
The worker was placed in a difficult position.
"Yeah! All of us paid to queue! We should be counted as VIP customers! How about this? Just ask those who never paid for registration to leave. We will be cooperative and keep quiet!" Right then, Ma Xiaonan's aunt suggested.
