The moment Li Yonghe's cries broke the silence in the room, Xiao Yu’s expression remained unchanged. However, on Li Rongcheng's calm face, a hint of bitter smile appeared.

Now the initiative was in Xiao Yu's hands, and after he finished his examination without uttering a word, Li Rongcheng could not figure out what Xiao Yu was thinking.

Furthermore, it was Li Yonghe who was ill, and as Li Yonghe was his grandson, there was originally no connection between Xiao Yu and the situation. Moreover, even if Li Yonghe remained disabled for life, that would have nothing to do with Xiao Yu!

Therefore, Xiao Yu had already secured an unbeatable position, whereas Li Shirong’s act of throwing a check merely humiliated himself. Originally, Li Shirong shouldn't have acted so rashly; however, upon seeing how Xiao Yu accepted his one million-dollar check and only examined his son for less than a minute, anger instantly filled his heart, causing him to recklessly throw the check out.

Seeing Xiao Yu’s demeanor, Li Rongcheng's bitterness grew even stronger. Although Xiao Yu was smiling, he himself had reached the level of being an expert in human nature and seldom made mistakes when judging people; thus, he could sense a firmness from Xiao Yu’s smile— that if he didn't pick up the check on the ground and hand it to Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu wouldn’t accept it, even if he wrote another one.

Moreover, he saw confidence in Xiao Yu's eyes. Although he couldn't tell whether this confidence stemmed from him being certain of picking up the check or his faith in curing his grandson’s illness.

But now there were no other ways; he had to take a gamble that Xiao Yu's confidence was rooted in treating his grandson's condition.

With this thought, Li Rongcheng bent down to pick up the check on the ground.

"Father..."

"Shut up!"

Seeing his father bending down to pick up the check, Li Shirong’s expression suddenly changed as he shouted out; but immediately, he was sternly rebuked by Li Rongcheng.

Lee Yongsung shouted at Lee Sehyeong and then bent down to pick up the check from the ground, handing it over to Xiao Yu with both hands: "Doctor Xiao, this child really is. He’s still so young but already acting rashly; he's been very careless in handling things like this. Please bear with him!"

"Huhu......" As Xiao Yu watched Lee Yongsung hold out the check to him with both hands and heard his words, he couldn’t help but shake his head inwardly and chuckle before reaching out to accept it.

After Xiao Yu received the check without looking at it and put it into his bag, despite how polite Lee Yongsung had acted towards him, he knew that this was merely superficial. If he were just a passerby, would Lee Yongsung treat him like this

Furthermore, people in business, especially someone from the powerful Lee family who could be considered one of the richest Chinese tycoons, if they didn’t have some skill or means to them, how likely was that

Especially those who operate within political and business circles are natural-born actors; compared to them, even film stars would seem inadequate.

"Doctor Xiao, I wonder about my grandson’s illness......" Upon seeing Xiao Yu accept the check, Lee Yongsung breathed a long sigh of relief before asking.

Although Lee Yongsung didn’t know if Xiao Yu could cure his grandson's condition, under the circumstances that no other treatment had worked for so long, Xiao Yu was now the only hope he had. If even Xiao Yu couldn’t help, he wouldn’t know who to turn to next.

Although Lee Sehyeong said they would look for folk medicine experts and try some unconventional remedies in the community, it was merely self-comforting talk; there were no guarantees of success or finding such experts at all.

With Xiao Yu here now, he represented a genuine hope. Compared to seeking out uncertain prospects elsewhere, wasn't this better With that thought, Lee Yongsung gave his son a stern look.

"Huhu, I can treat your grandson’s illness......" As Xiao Yu noticed the Lee family and Song Hushan looking at him intently, he couldn’t help but chuckle softly before speaking up.

"Really" Hearing Xiao Yu's words, a trace of excitement flashed across Lee Yongsung's face as he said.

Hearing what Doctor Xiao had to say, Mrs. Lee Sehyeong was even more excited; although she harbored hopes that her son would live a life of prosperity and wealth through him, she genuinely cared for him deep down and wished the best for him. It’s just that in her world view, as long as her son had money, everything was good enough to overlook many other aspects of life.

After hearing Xiao Yu's words, even Li Shirong's face showed a hint of excitement. After all, it was his son who was sick. Although he disliked Xiao Yu and Xiao Yu had humiliated him, instinctively, he felt very excited at this moment.

Song Hushan looked at the confident Xiao Yu and thought to himself,果然 (indeed), Xiao Yu really has a way to treat the illness. From when he got to know Xiao Yu until now, he hadn't seen any disease that could stump him, especially such difficult cases where no one else could find a solution, just like with his son, his niece-in-law, and his grandfather—many doctors were at a loss, but for Xiao Yu, there was no difficulty.

Just now, many doctors, including top domestic specialists and world-renowned experts, had examined Li Yonghe's condition, but none of them could find a solution. However, Xiao Yu merely looked at him for less than a minute and not only diagnosed his illness accurately but also found a way to treat it!

"Please, Doctor Xiao, show your miraculous skills!" After a moment, Li Rongcheng reacted and hastily bowed to Xiao Yu.

“Haha, Mr. Li, don't rush. Since your grandson's illness is quite difficult to treat, the consultation fee will be rather expensive!” Hearing Li Rongcheng’s words, Xiao Yu chuckled and said to him.

"Ha ha, Doctor Xiao, rest assured! As long as you can cure my grandson, money isn’t an issue for us! Just focus on curing him!" Upon hearing Xiao Yu mention the consultation fee, Li Rongcheng burst out laughing. The Li family might lack some things, but money wasn't one of them; they were the big cash cows and deservedly called China's richest family.

Now that he heard Xiao Yu talk about everything in terms of money, Li Rongcheng felt somewhat disdainful towards him. Although Xiao Yu's face remained calm with no visible change, his words implied that Xiao Yu was like a bumpkin who had never seen much money, constantly talking about it. How could the Li family owe this man any money

As such, when Li Rongcheng looked at Xiao Yu, there were faint traces of disdain in his eyes.

Xiao Yu saw Li Rongcheng's look and noticed the slight disdain in his eyes but didn't pay it much mind.

"Alright, Mr. Li from the Li family is indeed wealthy; if you say so, then I'll be straightforward. The consultation fee for your grandson will be one billion RMB!" Xiao Yu naturally saw the disdain on Li Rongcheng's face, but his expression didn't change much; he merely smiled slightly and said.

"What Why don’t you just rob us" Just as Xiao Yu finished speaking, Li Shirong's shocked and furious voice was heard from behind them.

This time, Li Rongcheng also did not stop Li Shirong because he himself was in shock. He knew that Xiao Yu would ask for a high price, but he didn't expect it to be so exorbitant. One billion wasn’t something their family couldn’t afford, but if they just gave it without negotiation, he felt somewhat aggrieved.

Li Shirong's wife and Song Hushan were also looking at Xiao Yu in surprise. Li Shirong's wife had a look of anger in her eyes when she looked at Xiao Yu; one billion yuan was more than what Li Shirong had ever given her before, as all the money she had saved amounted to only around ten million yuan. Now that Xiao Yu wanted a billion yuan just like that, how could it not make her angry But seeing her son who couldn't walk, she forcibly suppressed this anger.

Song Hushan's shock was brief; although he didn't know what kind of grudge Xiao Yu had with the Li Family, if giving Xiao Yu a billion yuan would cure Li Yonghe and resolve their conflict, it would be fortunate for them. Otherwise, given Xiao Yu's current influence...

"Two billion!" Hearing Li Shirong's words, Xiao Yu still didn't have any change in his expression as he casually said this. Although the voice wasn't loud, it was like thunder to Li Shirong and Song Hushan.

"Cough... cough..." The moment Xiao Yu finished speaking, Song Hushan sitting beside him suddenly started coughing violently and even turned red with effort due to his coughing.

Song Hushan stood up, covering his mouth as he walked towards the restroom. Soon after came a series of violent coughs from the restroom; despite coughing, Song Hushan couldn't help but smile because just now when Li Shirong said that Xiao Yu was robbing them, Xiao Yu had raised their price by one billion yuan—wasn't this even faster than robbing

In the living room outside, Li Rongcheng and Li Shirong's couple were pale with rage. Especially Li Shirong who wanted to say something but dared not speak a word as he was afraid that Xiao Yu might raise it by another billion yuan. For the Li Family to cough up this amount of money wasn't difficult, but feeling like they were being extorted was rare for them in recent years.

Li Rongcheng didn't say anything when Xiao Yu mentioned two billion; although his face turned pale too, he remained silent.

Now that it was the Li Family who needed help, whatever Xiao Yu said would be how they had to follow. They had to bear any losses no matter how large, otherwise they wouldn't treat their grandson's condition. But what if they didn't treat him Regardless of whether he loved his grandson or not, they couldn't let others see them like this.

Would it save money by letting a disabled grandchild go untreated If such news spread outside, the Li Family's stocks would surely be affected because rumors could easily get twisted and spread differently. It wasn’t impossible for people to say that the Li Family stopped treating their child due to lack of funds.

"Alright, I agree with you! But you must cure my grandson's leg..." After a moment, Li Rongcheng thought through all the implications and said to Xiao Yu, then told Li Shirong, "Write out two billion yuan in checks!"

When Li Shirong heard his father’s words, he hesitated but didn’t say anything.

"Alright, write out the check," When Li Rongcheng saw how Li Shirong was acting, without waiting for him to speak, he waved at him and said.
