Heavenly Dragon Doctor Son-in-Law

Chapter 243 244: Nano-assisted Therapy!

This terrifying aura, that of a true superior, shocked everyone. No one knew what was happening. The manager was treating Qin Long as if he were an emperor.

Plus, Qin Long had claimed to be a Supreme VIP. He'd even claimed his visit to the Heavenly Immortal Terrace was a favor he was doing for them. Could it be that everything he had said was true?

"Qin Long, what on earth is..." Tang Xuewu looked at him, confused.

SWOOSH!

With the help of his cane, Qin Long slowly rose to his feet.

"Qin Long, you..." Tang Xuewu's voice was laced with concern.

"I'm here. It's fine."

His gentle words instantly gave Tang Xuewu an immense sense of security, and she subconsciously sat back down.

He's so manly! Jiang Tiantian was amazed by the change in him. Right now, Qin Long seemed like a true emperor, his masculine aura simply irresistible to a young woman like her.

Qin Long's gaze fell upon Liu Mingtao once more.

CRACK!

The teacups on the table shattered from the sheer pressure of his aura.

"Well, Young Master Liu? Weren't you going to slap my face? What do you have to say now?"

Qin Long's sharp, eagle-like eyes made Liu Mingtao tremble from head to toe.

"That was… Bai He… who said that, not me!" Shaken by Qin Long's powerful aura, Liu Mingtao trembled as he stammered his reply.

WHOOSH!

Qin Long instantly withdrew his intense aura. In a flash, the oppressive feeling in the room vanished completely. Just moments ago, it had been difficult to breathe, and a layer of frost had even coated the walls. Now, it had all dissipated into nothing.

"Alright, let's just enjoy our meal, shall we?" Qin Long said mildly, his cold gaze sweeping over everyone present.

"Okay, Young Master Qin…" Li Min quickly chimed in with a smile to ease the awkward tension.

"You may all leave," Qin Long said, glancing at the manager and casually waving his right hand.

"Yes, Young Master Qin." The manager bowed and quickly led her staff out of the room.

A weight was lifted from Tang Xuewu's heart. She understood that Qin Long had done all of this for her sake. No matter what, they were all friends, so Qin Long couldn't make the relationship too tense. They would still see each other around, and creating a rift would only cause trouble for her down the line.

Still, I don't understand why the manager of the Dragon Spring Restaurant respects Qin Long so much. I remember when he took me to see the starry ceiling, the attendants were also incredibly polite. Back then, I just figured it was the hotel's policy to treat all guests as if they were royalty. But what just happened right before my eyes? How do I explain this? They seem to respect him so deeply. Why? Even the Divine Doctor, Liu Mingtao, doesn't get this kind of treatment. Tang Xuewu was deeply puzzled.

"Haha, Qin Long, I never would've guessed you were friends with the manager here!" Bai He said, as if a light bulb had gone on over his head.

He must be friends with the manager. Why else would she give him so much face?

Hearing Bai He's explanation, the others immediately came to the same conclusion. And here they were, thinking Qin Long had some incredible background.

"That scared me for a second. See? I told you he was just a cripple," Liu Xiaoyue muttered, pursing her lips disdainfully.

"Xiaoyue, what are you talking about?" one of the boys next to her scoffed. "He obviously paid her to put on a show. I mean, this is the same guy who rented an Aston Martin just to show off!"

"It doesn't matter what my background is," Qin Long said with a helpless sigh, his eyes scanning the crowd. "Eat, drink, and enjoy yourselves today. This meal is on my tab. Xuewu, shall we go?"

By leaving the decision to her, he showed her his respect.

"Alright." Tang Xuewu immediately stood up to help Qin Long leave. She had only come to get treatment for his right leg. Since that was no longer possible, there was no reason to stay. Besides, her only true friends here were Jiang Tiantian and a couple of others. She could always just ask them out for hotpot later.

"I'm very sorry," she said, bowing and smiling at everyone. "Please enjoy your meal. Qin Long and I will be taking our leave now."

"Xuewu, come on. We've all been friends for so many years, and it's not often we can all get together like this," Liu Mingtao said, rushing to stop her with an apologetic look. "The restaurant's specialty dishes are already being prepared. If you leave now, you'll just be dampening everyone's spirits."

He had planned to use today as an opportunity to win over Tang Xuewu. Maybe with such a beauty by his side, he could finally rise to the occasion. But if she left, what was the point?

"Our beautiful Xuewu, you can't just leave," Bai He chimed in. "We're all friends here. What happened before was just a small misunderstanding. You're not going to slight us by refusing to even eat a meal together, are you?"

Tang Xuewu waved her hand helplessly, about to give them a firm refusal.

"Ah! Xuewu! I just remembered something!" Liu Mingtao suddenly exclaimed, his face turning serious as a plan formed in his mind. "There's a type of nanotechnology-assisted therapy that might be able to treat Qin Long's right leg."

"Nanotechnology-assisted therapy?" Tang Xuewu's eyes lit up with excitement. Of course, since she wasn't a doctor, the term meant nothing to her, but it sounded hopeful.

"Xuewu, it's already widespread overseas; Daxia is just a bit behind. Many top experts are using it," Liu Mingtao said, his voice brimming with feigned authority. "It involves using controllable, microscopic nanobots to target specific ailments. For example, since the nerve pathways in Qin Long's leg are permanently damaged, the nanobots can be directed to repair them. It could allow him to make a full recovery and walk again. It's hailed as one of the greatest inventions in modern medicine!"

He spoke with an air of absolute confidence, and the others around him nodded in agreement. They didn't understand a word of it, but it certainly sounded impressive.

"Qin Long's injury is most likely severe damage to his leg's neurons."

This kid actually has some skill; he's just crooked, Qin Long thought, a flicker of interest in his eyes.

"Xuewu, if we use nanobot-assisted therapy on his right leg to reverse the nerve damage, it's highly possible that he could walk normally again," Liu Mingtao said with an extremely solemn expression.

He was just looking for an excuse to make her stay, and he knew he had to target her weakness. Now, there was no way she would leave.

"A medical expert mentioned that technology before," Tang Xuewu recalled. "He said Qin Long's condition didn't meet the requirements."

"That's because the technology in Daxia is too underdeveloped," Liu Mingtao countered immediately. "Overseas, this technique is already mature. It can repair a patient's damaged nerves with a speed Daxia's methods can't even hope to match. My own mentor is one of the leading figures in this very field. He can definitely help Qin Long stand up again! Xuewu, if you're that anxious, I'll contact my professor the moment I get back today and try to convince him to take the case personally."
