Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 517

Fade spoke in a cold tone, "The main reason why the alpha-protein injected into your son's body mutated to produce toxins was because your son's blood contains amphetamine. Thus, the combined reaction of alpha-protein and amphetamine resulted in a brand-new toxin that caused your son to be poisoned."

Upon hearing the professional terminologies, Department Head Zhou and Mrs. Zhou were still visibly confused and did not seem to understand him.

However, when the doctors around heard these familiar terms, their faces suddenly changed. They looked at Zeke who was on the bed and said, "Amphetamine is the main component of ecstasy pills. In short, Zeke had been taking drugs."

Hearing this, Department Head Zhou and Mrs. Zhou were completely dumbfounded. They looked at their son on the hospital bed in disbelief, and turned to look at Fade and the others. Shaking their heads, they denied, "No, it's impossible. How could my son be taking drugs? He has always been very well-behaved." "You all must be lying. You just want to scare

us. What you've said cannot be true." Department Head Zhou just didn't want to believe them.

Fade snorted coldly, "You don't believe me? Look again, do you really think that it's normal for your son to be this skinny?"

The couple froze at the mention of this, slowly turning to look at their son. They lifted the quilt and Zeke's clothes, revealing his skinny body. The two of them were immediately shocked to see him like that. "How, how could this be?"

"When did Zeke become so skinny?"

Although they always knew that their son was slim, they never expected for him to be just skin and bones. It was no longer close to what a normal person would look like.

At this time, they had no choice but to believe in what Fade had said.

At that moment, Fade continued coldly, "Let me tell you one last time. Although I've cured Zeke this time, he has obviously been addicted to the drugs for a long time. If he goes on like this, you guys can start to prepare for his funeral in around 3 months."

With that, Fade directly turned around and walked out of the ward, while the others also started to leave.

Seeing this, Department Head Zhou instinctively rushed over and tried to stop everyone by continuing to stir up trouble. "You guys can't leave, you'

But this time, there was no need for Fade to stop him anymore. Mrs. Zhou, who was fully covered in tears, pulled him back directly and cried, "Your son is in such a state, yet you still have the mood to ask for money. You should think of a way to save your son!"

Looking at his scrawny son on the hospital bed, Department Head Zhou was completely dumbfounded. He collapsed to the ground without the slightest idea of what to do.

A series of crying and quarreling could be heard from inside the ward not long after everyone left.

Outside the ward, Fade and the others had already left. The hospital staff thanked Chief Zheng before they left. They knew that Chief Zheng was mainly here to visit Fade. Chief Zheng sat down beside Fade and said with a smile, "Dr. Chen, I couldn't thank you properly last time. This time, I'm here to express my gratitude to you in person." Fade smiled and said, "Chief Zheng, you're too polite. This time, I'm the one who should thank you. You've helped me so much just now."

Chief Zheng said, "Department Head Zhou is the scum of our medical field. We should have fished him out by ourselves, but we troubled you to do it for us instead. It was our fault! So, I should still thank you." Fade smiled and said, "Chief Zheng, if we keep thanking each other, we might have to sit here till the evening."

Chief Zheng laughed, "You're right, I shouldn't dilly- dally anymore. Let me just tell you directly. Today, I came here firstly for a checkup, and secondly, to thank you. I would like to introduce my son to you." With this, he pointed to the young man beside him while he introduced, "This is my son, Edgar Zheng."

He continued, "Dr. Chen, Edgar, both of you are young. You guys should get to know each other better and help each other out in the future."

"Dad, I understand." Edgar smiled faintly, nodded to Fade and greeted him.

"Nice to meet you." Fade said and nodded to Edgar as well as a sign of goodwill.

Seeing this, Chief Zheng smiled and said, "It's good for you to get to know each other. You could have fun together in the future and talk about medical matters."

"Edgar, like me, is also working in the Health Ministry," he explained to Fade.

Upon hearing this, Fade's heart skipped a beat. He glanced at Edgar, who was obviously less than 30 years old. Considering the fact that he was working in the Health Ministry at such a young age, Edgar was undoubtedly extraordinary. He must be a talented man whom Chief Zheng had meticulously raised.

Then, Chief Zheng turned to his son and mentioned, "Dr. Chen's medical skills are superb. Edgar, if you want to perform well in the medical field, you'd have to communicate more with famous experts like Dr. Chen."

"Yes, I will." Edgar smiled faintly and nodded.

Chief Zheng said, "Actions speak louder than words, my son. How about this? Aren't you going to the holiday resort with Haymitch the day after tomorrow? You're all youngsters anyways, why don't you take Dr Chen along, and introduce him to Haymitch too?"

Edgar was dumbstruck momentarily. It seemed that he did not expect such a request from his father, but he still nodded and agreed, "Well, okay. However, I'm not sure if Dr. Chen is -"

With this, Edgar looked at Fade.

Chief Zheng then said to Fade, "Dr. Chen, are you free the day after tomorrow? Haymitch is Edgar's friend and the child of an old friend of mine. You can join them and chat with each other as youngsters." Fade's eyes gleamed upon hearing so. Chief Zheng's old friends must all possess a high status, so their children would be similar to that of Edgar. It seemed like it was going be a social gathering of all second generation youngsters.

Since Chief Zheng had asked Edgar to bring him along, he was probably thinking of introducing Fade into their social circle.

Fade was not very interested in this. However, since Chief Zheng was only being kind, he couldn't refuse him flatly either. Therefore, he nodded and agreed, "I have time, but I'll have to trouble you then." Chief Zheng patted his son on his back and said to Fade, "It's not a big deal. Edgar was going to go alone anyways. Now that he's with you, at least he has a companion with him."

Fade nodded and agreed. After exchanging phone numbers with Edgar and agreeing on the rendezvous details, the matter was settled.

Afterwards, Chief Zheng and Edgar bid him goodbye and left.

Later on, Fade found Daphne and bade her goodbye, then he was ready to leave.

She walked with him side-by-side to the car park and was about to see him off.

But just as Fade was about to get in the car and leave, he suddenly saw a black shadow flash through the parking lot and between the parked cars. Out of the blue, it pounced viciously on Daphne. Daphne was waving goodbye to Fade, and never expected someone to attack her. The black shadow was just 2 meters away from her when she noticed it.
