Zhang Long acted quickly and returned half an hour later with a tablet in his hand. He looked at Wang Chao with a solemn expression and asked, "Mr. Wang, do you understand English?"
"I understand a little bit," Wang Chao replied.
"Shen Feng's medical records are in English. If you can't understand them, I can arrange for a translator," Zhang offered, handing the tablet to Wang Chao.
"No need, let me take a look first."
Wang Chao remained calm as he took the tablet and carefully examined the records.
Zhang Long sat down, drinking tea while observing Wang Chao with a puzzled expression.
He had just looked at the medical records, which were all in English and filled with medical abbreviations and technical terms. Even though he had passed the English Level 6 exam, he found it challenging to understand the specialized vocabulary.
Wang Chao was just a security guard. Could he really comprehend this English text?
Wang Chao studied the records attentively, his face becoming serious.
Shen Feng's illness was indeed peculiar. From the records and various research results, it was evident that his life was in danger, with multiple organ failures.
The specific diagnosis was not stated clearly; it only mentioned problems in the brain!
CT scans, electroencephalograms, and various advanced instruments failed to detect any brain abnormalities. All that was known was that the brain was shrinking every year, and its function was gradually weakening. It was an extremely rare condition.
Normally, such illnesses primarily affect the elderly.
However, Shen Feng was only twenty-two years old.
His life had just begun, yet his brain had already aged to the state of a ninety-eight-year-old and was continuing to shrink and deteriorate.
Massachusetts General Hospital had given this condition a new name: Young Brain Aging Syndrome.
Essentially, it meant that the brains of young individuals aged as if they were in their nineties.
Moreover, this disease was classified as a complex and difficult case, being studied by many experts.
Frankly speaking, Shen Feng was like a guinea pig in that hospital, subjected to various research and experimental treatments.
Zhang Long let out a long sigh and said, "For all these years, Shen Feng has been treated like a guinea pig."
"Every time President Shen sees him being studied like this, she feels heartbroken."
"Unfortunately, only Massachusetts General Hospital has the ability to save Shen Feng's life. President Shen can do nothing but accept the situation, even though it pains her."
Then, Zhang Long looked at Wang Chao with anticipation and said, "Mr. Wang, can you determine what illness this is?"
Wang Chao put down the tablet, shook his head, and replied, "Based on these medical records, I can't identify any specific features. I need to see the patient to determine if there's a possibility of treatment."
In traditional Chinese medicine, diagnosis involves observation, listening, questioning, and pulse-taking.
The "observation" aspect requires directly seeing the patient to assess their condition. After all, Wang Chao wasn't interested in machine-generated diagnostic data but rather in the patient's internal energy and whether it was balanced or affected by malevolent forces.
Because energy is invisible and intangible, it cannot be detected by brainwave scans, CT scans, or other medical tests.
If he were to diagnose using traditional Chinese medicine, he might be able to discern the distribution and changes in Shen Feng's energy.
"Seeing the patient? Can we have a video meeting?" Zhang Long asked.
Wang Chao shook his head and said, "No, I must see the patient in person."
Pointing to Shen Feng's head on the computer screen, he spoke with a deep voice, "I can assure you that there is something wrong with his brain. There is a mysterious and invisible being devouring his brain, causing it to shrink and function deteriorate."
"But in a video, I can't see what it is. I must see the patient with my own eyes to determine the nature of this force and whether it can be treated."
"Invisible beings inside the brain? Parasites?" Zhang Long's eyes widened in astonishment.
Wang Chao shook his head and replied, "If it were brain parasites, medical equipment could detect them."
"This being is invisible and intangible, beyond the reach of machines."
Zhang Long's expression changed.
Invisible and intangible!
Undetectable by machines!
Yet capable of consuming life!
Could there be such bizarre beings in the world?
Or was Wang Chao just making things up?
Zhang Long sipped his tea, savoring it carefully. He remained silent for a while before looking up at Wang Chao and asking, "Are you certain that there is such a mysterious being in Shen Feng's brain?"
"I'm not certain, which is why I need to see the patient before making a decision," Wang Chao replied.
"Alright, I understand. I'll make time to accompany you to the Baiying Country," Zhang Long said.
"Shouldn't we discuss this with President Shen?" Wang Chao frowned.
"I don't want her to experience disappointment again," Zhang Long replied.
Over the years, Shen Bing had gone through many moments of hope, with doctors suggesting every one or two months that there might be a new drug that could cure Shen Feng.
But each time, they had failed. The repeated disappointments had left her heartbroken and shattered.
Therefore, until Wang Chao was completely certain about the possibility of curing Shen Feng's illness, he didn't want to inform Shen Bing or let her go through another moment of despair.
"Understood," Wang Chao nodded.
After thinking for a moment, Zhang Long said, "Alright, after you accompany President Shen on her business trip and return, I'll arrange for you to visit Baiying Country."
"Okay, let me know once you make the arrangements. I need to go for training now," Wang Chao nodded.
Zhang Long looked at Wang Chao with curiosity and asked, "I've read the training manual you wrote. Are you planning to turn all of them into special forces?"
"No, I'm aiming to build a top-notch combat team even stronger than special forces."
"How formidable do you want them to become?"
"A team that can crush even god-level experts."
Wang Chao smiled and looked at Zhang Long, saying, "Once I've trained them for a month, you'll be the main examiner, specifically tasked with assessing their progress."
"Alright, I'm really looking forward to seeing their progress," Zhang Long smiled.
A team capable of defeating god-level experts!
If these security guards really become like that, it would mean that Shen Bing would have a loyal and capable team at her disposal, allowing her to act without restraint within the Shen family.
"You should also exercise well lately, or else, you might get beaten up in a month," Wang Chao said casually.
"If what you say is true, then I do need to train hard. By then, I'll make those little lackeys you've trained fall like leaves," Zhang Long said eagerly.
At this moment, he felt that Wang Chao coming to work at Danfeng Group was truly a stroke of luck for Shen Bing.
With him around, it wouldn't be so easy for other members of the Shen family to harm Shen Bing.
Wang Chao patted Zhang Long's shoulder and said, "I'll take my leave now. Remember to tell President Shen to take the cured meat home. It's carefully prepared by me and tastes amazing."
"If you like it, take a piece for yourself too. It's really delicious, don't miss out."
As soon as this was mentioned, Zhang Long felt a headache coming on.
Cured meat again!
Wang Chao's emotional intelligence was truly terrifyingly low.
Giving cured meat and being so self-satisfied about it, was he treating cured meat like a treasure?
He picked up a few pieces of cured meat and said, "Are you sure this is really good stuff?"
"Wang Chao, you're still a man, don't you need to understand some logic and romance when pursuing a girl? Who gives a girl a gift of cured meat?"
"Are you out of your mind?"
"Practical, can be eaten and enjoyed, and it's made by my own hands, unparalleled in the world. It's a priceless treasure!" Wang Chao said.
The cured meat made by the King of the Dark Night himself, a treasure that money could not buy.
Many dominant figures from the extraterritorial battlefield had even offered billions to buy his cured meat, but he refused to sell.
Now, having personally made so much cured meat, he was giving Shen Bing quite a face.
"It's not a priceless treasure. I wouldn't even want it if you gave it to me. I've already gotten tired of it," Zhang Long said.
"Take it, it's cured meat made by my own hands, absolutely delicious, and priceless," Wang Chao insisted.
After saying that, he left straight away.
Zhang Long looked at the cured meat on the table, feeling perplexed.
"I want to see how good your cured meat really is."
In the end, he picked up one of the cured meats and walked out, heading to the company cafeteria. He handed the cured meat to the chef and said, "Old Li, I have a piece of cured meat here. Make a few dishes for me, I want to eat it now."
"Без проблем."
Chef Old Li took the cured meat and slowly smelled it. His eyes lit up, and he exclaimed, "It smells so good!"
He placed the cured meat in front of him, carefully examining it. The more he looked, the more excited he became. "Excellent, excellent!"
"Old Li, it's just a piece of cured meat. Do you have to be so excited?" Zhang Long said.
Master Old Li, still excited, said, "Master Zhang, it's like a different world when it comes to different professions. As a chef, you would not understand. This cured meat is absolutely the best I've ever seen, no doubt about it."
"Its craftsmanship can be considered perfect."
"And, I just smelled it, and the taste is indeed amazing!"
"Just wait, I'll make a few dishes for you to taste."
After saying that, he immediately picked up a knife and started cutting.
Then, he divided the cured meat into several portions: one portion for making braised rice with mushrooms and cured meat, one for stir-fried garlic shoots with cured meat, and another portion for steamed taro with cured meat.
After a while, he brought the three dishes, full of color, aroma, and steaming hot, in front of Zhang Long.
He picked up a piece of cured meat and said, "Master Zhang, look at this cured meat. It's crystal clear, like a gemstone, but not too fatty. It's definitely top-quality pork belly. Taste it first."
Zhang Long tasted all three dishes in front of him, and then widened his eyes. He quickly took several bites and praised, "Impressive, this cured meat is truly delicious, a worldly delicacy."
"Old Li, you have good culinary skills."
This cured meat was rich but not greasy, and with each bite, it released a fragrant aroma and a variety of flavors that lingered in the mouth, leaving a lasting aftertaste.
"My culinary skills are one reason, but the most important thing is the quality of the ingredients. This cured meat has a balanced flavor, and with just a few additional ingredients, it can become delicious," Old Li rubbed his hands excitedly.
"Master Zhang, I desire to learn how to make this cured meat. Can you introduce me to the person who made it?"
As a chef with many years of experience, he instantly recognized the quality and market potential of this cured meat.
If he could learn this craft and open a cured meat shop, he would surely make a fortune. The business opportunity was limitless!
However, Zhang Long ignored him and continued to work diligently. He quickly finished the braised rice, steamed taro with cured meat, and stir-fried garlic shoots with cured meat, leaving nothing behind.
After finishing the meal, he even licked his lips, savoring the taste and feeling satisfied. He sighed, "It seems that Wang Chao did not lie to me. This cured meat is truly extraordinary. No wonder he dared to give it to Bingbing."
As a god-level figure and the pillar of the Shen family, he had tasted many exotic delicacies and tried famous dishes from all over the country.
However, this cured meat was truly unique.
The deliciousness was irresistible, making him desire more even after finishing it.
It was truly the number one delicacy in the world!
He looked at the empty plate in front of him and remembered what Wang Chao had said. He wondered, "What background does Wang Chao have? He's so skilled in fighting, has incredible medical skills, and now he can make cured meat so perfectly."Upstodatee from n(0)/v𝒆/lbIn/.(co/m
"Is there anything he can not do?"
"Master Zhang, can you introduce me to that chef?" Old Li still looked at Zhang Long with gleaming eyes.
