Chapter: 452

Shi Tianzhi said sincerely: "Sister-in-law, Xiao Laogong did me a great favor in the past, and I've been repaying it for many years without expecting anything in return. You should know that I'm a person who knows how to repay kindness."

"This is only natural!" Xiao Bihua exclaimed hastily: "But what's going on with you? Why do you want to cut ties with our Xiao family like this? If it's because of something my old lady did wrong, please tell me so I can make amends!"

Shi Tianzhi said: "Sister-in-law, it's not your fault - it's Yi'ao's problem."

"Yi'ao?" Xiao Bihua exclaimed in surprise: "What happened to him? Did he offend you or something? But isn't he currently in Jinling?"

"I'm also in Jinling." Shi Tianzhi said sincerely: "I've met Xio Yijian, and he didn't offend me at all. The main issue is that he offended my benefactor, who has given me a second chance at life. Therefore, I must maintain a distance from the Xiao family out of gratitude to my benefactor, so please excuse your sister-in-law."

Xiao Bihua's heart was taken aback.

Her son had actually upset Shi Tianzhi in Jinling? What a nasty person! Shi Tianzhi is a famous internal medicine master, and many superiors ask him for treatment when they're ill. In the upper-class circles of Yanjing, there's often a saying: "The devil lets you die at three o'clock, but Shi Tianzhi can keep you alive until five o'clock!"

This phrase means that even if someone is about to die, as long as Shi Tianzhi intervenes, they can live for an extra while. This is like a dream come true for the elite!

Hong Kong casino king Ho Hung-sun has been using high-tech methods to extend his life in hospitals for years, spending billions of dollars each year on medical care. But to him, these billions are nothing compared to the value of his life.

If one's life were to suddenly stop, even if you had a billion-dollar fortune, what good would it do? It's not like a fire could burn everything and leave you in a small wooden box.

So, the more powerful someone is, the more they rely on Shi Tianzhi.

In Yanjing, no family is without envy for the Xiao family. The reason is that they're old friends with Shi Tianzhi. Even if someone were to abandon their entire fortune, they wouldn't be able to trade it for a single consultation with Shi Tianzhi, let alone a diagnosis and treatment. Because of this, Shi Tianzhi has to visit the Xiao family almost every year to examine and treat them, making many people jealous.

Xiao Bihua's husband, the father of Xio Yijian, got cancer 15 years ago.

If it weren't for Shi Tianzhi trying his best to save him, he wouldn't have made it until last year.

When Grandpa passed away, he was already 86 years old. It's as if he lived a long life that even healthy people would envy.

Xiao Bihua was hoping to rely on Shi Tianzhi to live until she was over 90 or even past 100. But unexpectedly, Shi Tianzhi suddenly decided to cut ties with his own family, which made her anxious and begged him: "Tianzi, don't treat Yi Jian like you did before. He's your younger cousin after all, and he must have offended you in some way. Please forgive him, and I'll give him a scolding on the phone, making him apologize to you immediately......"

Shi Tianzhi replied calmly: "Sister-in-law, there's no need to say anything more. If Yi Jian has offended me, I will certainly pardon him. But he has offended my dear benefactor, so this matter is settled. I won't change my mind, and I hope you stay healthy and live a long life. Goodbye!"

After finishing the call, Shi Tianzhi hung up immediately, then shut off his phone and told Chen Xiaozhou: "Lock the door and go back to the hotel."

On the other side, Xiao Yi Jian rode in Xiao Changgao's car and returned to the Xiao family villa.

As soon as he got back to the villa, he went straight to the living room and poured himself a glass of water. He then took out his medication and read the instructions: "Can I take one pill at a time?"

Xiao Laotai saw him pull out this kind of medicine and felt a bit embarrassed.

Even Xiao Changgao's wife Qian Hongyan couldn't bring herself to look at it.

Xiao Ruirui didn't say anything, but her expression was full of anticipation.

Since Xiao Yiqian's abilities were gone, he became extremely negative towards himself.

Don't even mention giving himself pocket money, let alone following up on the promised investments. JrNovels.com
