Li Kun was a typical parasite, never learning anything useful from a young age. Back then, he had to borrow money from all over just to scrape together enough for his wedding.
Later, after Li Yun's husband passed away, Li Kun and his wife, Qian Jing, without Li Yun's consent, secretly accepted money to introduce men to Li Yun.
It's undeniable that someone like Li Yun is the dream of many older men.
The key is, she also has a daughter.
Usually, women with sons are less desirable, as even a figure like Dorgon couldn't handle that.
But a woman with a daughter is a hot commodity among older men.
Initially, Li Kun and his wife were only collecting money, and they ended up with twenty thousand.
Eventually, those older men were blocking the entrance to Li Yun's breakfast shop.
When Li Yun went to ask for the money, she couldn't find Li Kun, so she ended up returning the money to those men herself, finally putting an end to the matter.
This time, they even wanted to target Zhao Yingying, but Li Yun would rather entrust her daughter to someone like Xu Mu, even though he was a married man, than rely on Li Kun, her so-called uncle, a hundred times over.
"Brother, I believe you can cure my sister. Please do it quickly. Cancer is something that gets harder to treat the longer you wait."
Li Kun continued speaking to Xu Mu.
Li Yun looked at her brother's ugly face and felt nothing but disgust. How could she not see through his little schemes?
He believed Xu Mu wouldn't be able to cure her and wanted her to die sooner.
"Brother Mu, can you really treat it?"
Zhao Yingying, with tears in her eyes, held onto Xu Mu's arm.
As a university student, she knew very well that cancer is one of the world's toughest challenges.
If anyone else claimed they could treat it with medication, she wouldn't believe them.
But the person in front of her was Xu Mu, who had previously lent her tens of thousands without batting an eye.
She couldn't understand why Xu Mu would have any reason to deceive her.
"There's a ninety percent chance. Of course, even if it fails, the medication won't harm your body."
Xu Mu gave a faint smile, then looked at Li Yun sitting on the sofa, "Auntie, are you willing to try my medicine?"
"Isn't this medicine expensive?"
Li Yun had learned from her daughter that Xu Mu's family probably wasn't short on money.
He had just said he was willing to give money without expecting repayment.
Someone like that surely wouldn't want to harm her.
"The price depends on its value."
Xu Mu smiled slightly, "If it can cure you, it's definitely worth the money. If it doesn't, then it's worthless."
"Alright, I'll give it a try. It's like treating a dead horse as if it's alive."
Li Yun nodded gently.
"Auntie! No! I don't agree. Medicine is three parts poison, let alone a cancer treatment. What if it worsens your condition?"
Fang Chu stood in front of Li Yun.
"You brat! Are you trying to get my sister killed? Do you think I don't dare to hit you?"
Li Kun clenched his fists, moving towards Fang Chu.
"Xiao Fang, thank you. I trust Xiao Xu. He wouldn't deceive me, and besides, I don't plan on undergoing treatment. Even if I don't take the medicine, I'll eventually die."
Li Yun forced a smile at Fang Chu.
Hearing this, Fang Chu clenched his fists. Since Li Yun had said so, he couldn't say much more.
He really didn't want anything to happen to Li Yun.
Xu Mu took out the pill and handed it to Li Yun. Although he had licked it earlier, it certainly wouldn't affect its efficacy.
Li Yun accepted the pill and swallowed it in one go.
Everyone around was now intently focused on Li Yun.
Xu Mu glanced around and then said, "Why is everyone so tense? Do you think this is some kind of elixir that will work instantly? It needs time to adjust..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Li Yun's face flushed red, as if she were drunk.
She suddenly clutched her stomach, tears streaming down her face. "It hurts! My stomach hurts so much, it feels like there's a fire burning inside!"
Li Kun and Qian Jing exchanged glances, both seeing the joy in each other's eyes.
Once Li Yun was gone, apart from Zhao Yingying, the house would naturally become their property.
"Xu Mu! You bastard! What did you give Auntie to eat?"
Seeing the situation, Fang Chu immediately confronted Xu Mu, "If anything happens to Auntie, I won't let you off!"
Zhao Yingying, crying, held onto Li Yun's arm, "Mom! Are you okay?"
Qian Jing also started her crocodile tears, pointing at Xu Mu and scolding, "What did you give my sister? We trusted you, and you poisoned her?"
"Call the police! I'm calling the police right now!"
Li Kun took out his phone, threatening Xu Mu.
Xu Mu remained unfazed, calmly watching Li Yun.
Her face, which had been flushed, now returned to normal.
"Yingying, I'm fine now."
Li Yun, equally astonished, rubbed her stomach in wonder, "It doesn't hurt anymore, not at all."
"Does your stomach feel uncomfortable?"
Zhao Yingying wiped her tears, noticing that Li Yun's previously pale face was now glowing with health.
"No discomfort. I feel like I've returned to how I was before."
Li Yun got up from the sofa and even jumped lightly twice, causing a surprising reaction.
Xu Mu's eyes widened in disbelief.
Everyone else around was also dumbfounded. How could this be?
Just moments ago, Li Yun had looked so sickly, and now she was suddenly radiant.
Was this pill an elixir?
Even if it could heal, it shouldn't work this fast.
Xu Mu also found it a bit too rapid. However, thinking it over, Li Yun was in the early stages of stomach cancer.
This meant that once the medicine entered the stomach, it could start working immediately.
If it were another type of cancer, the medicine would need to be absorbed by the body before reaching the root of the illness.
In that case, the process would be much slower.
"Auntie, are you really better? Could there be some hormones or painkillers in the medicine, just temporarily masking the symptoms?"
Fang Chu asked from the side, still finding it all hard to believe.
As a former member of a secluded family, he had heard of miraculous herbs and treasures.
But who was this Xu Mu? Could he really produce something like that?
Fang Chu decided to investigate further in the future.
"Auntie, cancer doesn't act up in just a day or two. I suggest you rest at home for a few days and then go to the hospital for a check-up."
Xu Mu smiled at Li Yun.
"Thank you so much, Xiao Xu, for coming over so early and bringing me the medicine for my treatment."
Li Yun was full of gratitude.
[Affection +30]
"Brother Mu, it's truly an honor to know you."
As Zhao Yingying spoke, black letters appeared above her head.
[Affection +30]
Beside them, Fang Chu felt increasingly annoyed. Damn it! He was the one who arrived first.
Zhao Yingying was one thing, but even Li Yun had been charmed away by Xu Mu.
He couldn't swallow this indignation!
[Fate Power -20]
"Li Kun, it's really inconvenient for you to come over so early. Please go back soon, and remember to repay the money you owe us immediately."
Li Yun looked at Li Kun, her expression emotionless, "You see, I've spent money on surgery and still owe over a hundred thousand. I don't even have money for food now. If you don't pay, I'll have to sue."
"Sis, I haven't found a job yet and don't have money, but I'll scrape together some soon and pay you back in a while."
Li Kun finished speaking, hurriedly grabbed Qian Jing's hand, and left the place.
He regretted it now; if he had known earlier, he wouldn't have let that guy give the medicine to Li Yun.
"Fang, you should head back too. You've worked hard this time." Li Yun smiled at Fang Chu.
[Fate Power -10]
Fang Chu was even more displeased. He was being sent away too, while Xu Mu was left behind. Was she going to reward him with something?
