"But Grandpa..." Gu Ze hesitated.
"Don't worry, I've already asked Yuanyuan to treat Grandpa. I heard she's the top expert on the Heavenly Doctor Network that everyone's looking for, the nameless divine doctor."
Gu Yan, the eldest daughter of the Gu family, walked in unhurriedly, her 15-centimeter heels clicking.
"Really?" Gu Ze's eyes lit up. "That's great! Grandpa will be saved!"
The top nameless divine doctor on the Heavenly Doctor Network was sought after by all the major influential families.
People get sick, and it's inevitable. Having a divine doctor at home meant they wouldn't have to worry about the whole family getting sick.
However, this nameless divine doctor was even more mysterious and harder to find than a celestial physician.
They had searched high and low without success, and now, it was right in front of them.
Unexpectedly, this mysterious divine doctor was Gu Yan's good friend, Qi Yuanyuan.
Qi Yuanyuan was the eldest daughter of the Qi family, one of the four major families. The Qi family was a medical dynasty of a hundred years, and Qi Yuanyuan had shown extraordinary talent in medicine since childhood.
Gu Yan had met her at a prestigious school, and they had been close friends since then.
"Let's go to the hospital to take a look," Qin Meimei finally relented.
If they didn't have a celestial physician, their Gu family still had a divine doctor.
Did a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner from a mountain village really think they could shake their Gu family?!
City Central Hospital.
In the ICU, after a series of smooth operations by Qi Yuanyuan, Elder Gu, who had been unconscious, woke up.
"Yuanyuan, thank you so much! You truly are a divine doctor deserving of the title." The entire Gu family of four was immensely grateful to Qi Yuanyuan.
After all, even the top doctors in the country had been helpless with Elder Gu's condition and had issued a critical illness notice.
Now, Qi Yuanyuan had woken him up. Although he only stayed awake for a short while before falling asleep again, she had helped Elder Gu overcome the most dangerous period.
"You're welcome, this is what I should do. Grandpa Gu was always so kind to me. I'm very happy I could help him," Qi Yuanyuan smiled gently, her smile warm and natural.
"Yuanyuan, you are so kind. Yan'er said you are the nameless divine doctor sought by all the influential families. With you here, I believe Grandpa's condition will recover soon," Qin Meimei said, holding her hand and showering her with praise.
Qi Yuanyuan's eyes flickered for a moment upon hearing the words "nameless divine doctor." She smiled and said,
"Grandpa Gu suffers from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, which are quite tricky, but I will do my best to treat him."
Qin Meimei was even more pleased with her gentle demeanor.
As the eldest daughter of the Qi family, she was not arrogant or impetuous, she was cultured and polite, and her medical skills were astonishing. If their Gu family were to marry such a daughter-in-law, the Gu family's status would surely increase greatly.
It was a pity that Gu Ze was young and still infatuated with the Ye family's fake daughter, unable to forget her.
However, even though it was a shame Qi Yuanyuan couldn't be their daughter-in-law, she thought of the Qin family's main branch and a plan immediately formed in her mind.
In the evening.
After seeing Qi Yuanyuan off, Qin Meimei returned to the Gu residence to be informed that the company's firewall had been nearly breached.
Her brow furrowed with worry again, and after losing her temper at the employees, she issued a stern warning.
"If you can't find a solution, none of you need to come back tomorrow!"
"Mom, don't be angry," Gu Yan comforted her. "I've asked around. Someone in the hacker community said that 'Crow,' the number one in the country, has returned to the scene and should be taking orders again. We can pay a high price to hire him."
"Hire him! No matter how much it costs, get him here!" Qin Meimei said fiercely.
She wanted to show everyone that the Gu family was not a paper tiger!

Tian Yu.
Yu He leaned against the headboard, holding her pet piglet and watching a medical documentary.
On her WeChat message list, the avatar of "A Pig" kept popping up, but she ignored it.
It wasn't until a "ding" sound that a message from an unknown number arrived on her phone.
[Boss, why aren't you replying to my WeChat?]
Only then did Yu He delete the message, open WeChat, and unmute "A Pig," whom she had previously set to do-not-disturb.
A Pig: [Boss, I've found news about the Black Spirit Pearl.]
A Pig: [Next Saturday night at 8 o'clock, the Star Chamber auction, the finale will be the Black Spirit Pearl.]
Crow: [Understood.]
A Pig: [But to enter the Star Chamber, you need a token as an entry ticket.]
The items at the Star Chamber auction were rare treasures from around the world. Countless people wanted to obtain treasures from the Star Chamber every year, but only a limited number of people could meet the entry threshold.
This was because the people of the Star Chamber would screen who could enter the auction.
Therefore, those who could enter the auction were either rich or noble.
Crow: [A life.]
A Pig: [!! Boss, calm down, don't be impulsive.]
A Pig: [You can just take on one free task with the name 'Crow' and you'll meet the entry requirement.]
A Pig: [You really don't need to mortgage your life.]
A Pig: [If you mortgage it, how will I earn my brokerage fee in the future!]
Yu He: "..."
Was the last sentence the main point?!
Crow: [It's healing a life.]
Crow: [As long as they haven't stopped breathing, I can bring them back to life.]
A Pig: [You scared me to death!]
A Pig: [No, Boss, you know medicine too?! Damn, you're this capable, how are others supposed to live!]
A Pig: [So you're looking for the Black Spirit Pearl to help someone heal, not because you're sick yourself?]
...
The other party sent several more messages. Yu He moved her finger and put him on do-not-disturb again, continuing to watch the documentary.
After finishing the two-hour documentary, she reopened the chat window with "A Pig."
A Pig: [Boss, did you put me on do-not-disturb again, sob sob sob]
A Pig: [Okay, I won't ramble anymore. Someone just offered ten times the price for you to take on a task. Will you accept it?!]
A Pig: [Ten times! Ten times!!]
A Pig: [Meow meow? Where are you?]
Crow: [Show me the client's information.]
The other party quickly sent a brief summary of the client's task.
Gu Yan, the Gu family...
Yu He closed the information expressionlessly.
The police had not yet found any news of Luo Xiaoyao, so she had to wait.
Besides, she needed some funds for the auction next week...
An idea struck her, and she moved her fingers.
Crow: [This task is a bit difficult. It will cost 100 times the price.]
On the other side of the chat window, a young man with short, ash-gray hair was drinking coffee. When he saw the message, he spat out a mouthful of coffee onto the computer screen with a "pfft" and then hurriedly grabbed tissues to wipe the screen and keyboard clean.
A Pig: [Difficult? Even I, a Level 5, can tell this isn't difficult for you!]
A Pig: [You clearly don't want to take it!]
A Pig: [No, you're doing this on purpose! You want to rip her off! And you want to leave her with no way out!]
A Pig: [If you charge 100 times the price for this job, then no one in the country will take her order.]
In reality, people unconsciously gravitated towards power. This was also true in the hacker world.
A job that could have been taken for six figures, but the number one person said it would cost 100 times more, then everyone else would also raise their prices.
Crow: [Pigs are indeed smart.]
A Pig: [...]
Yu He gently stroked the pet piglet sleeping on her lap, then got up to take it back to its nest.
As she stepped out, she ran into Qin Beiting, who was coming out of the study.
