Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen) -
Chapter 975
Otto was old and his son just recovered, thus Fade decided that it was best for him to visit Master Pai and his son. Moreover, it would be easier for him to check on Damian if he visited them. Otto was quite famous, hence Fade assumed that Otto would live in a quiet hillside villa or a luxurious residence.
Unexpectedly, after Fade arrived at the address, he realized that Otto was living in an ordinary residential area. The old residential area was dilapidated and crowded. Fade never expected someone like Otto to live there.
Otto waited at the entrance of the residential area to welcome Fade.
Fade parked his car outside the residential and Otto led Fade to his house. "Mr. Chen, I'm really sorry. It's a crowded place and it's impossible for cars to come in, so we'll have to walk."
Fade waved his hand nonchalantly and replied, "Don't worry, Master Pai. I'm still young and it's nothing."
Otto uttered apologetically, "Mr. Chen, we should've visited you personally to thank you. I'm really sorry that you had to come here."
Fade chuckled, "It's an honor to know someone like you, Master Pai."
"Someone like me? Oh, I'm just an old man," Otto sighed, "If it weren't for you, my son would still be sick."
Otto was seemingly overwhelmed with emotions as he spoke.
Fade paused before asking, "Master Pai, you're a very famous and talented doctor, so why... Why do you still live here? It would be a piece of cake for you to be a private doctor for a wealthy family or an exper in a hospital!"
Otto's eyes flickered and he glanced around him. He replied, "I've lived here for over thirty years. This is my home and I'm used to it."
"More importantly, most of the residents here are poor. If I open my clinic here, it would be more convenient for them too. As for the rich, they are capable of finding another doctor. Yet, the residents here would be hopeless without me."
Fade was quiet and his respect for Otto grew.
Otto noticed Fade's silence and waved his hand. He chuckled, "Old people love to nag but youngsters like you wouldn't like it, right? It's okay if you don't like it."
Fade immediately shook his head before bowing to Otto. He uttered respectfully, "Master Pai, you're an admirable man. I really look up to you."
Otto rushed to stop Fade and answered, "Mr. Chen, you saved my son. I can't let you bow to me. Come one, I..."
Fade shook his head firmly and stared at Otto. "Master Pai, this has nothing to do with saving your son. You're a respectable doctor and I admire you for it." Fade proceeded to bow respectfully to Otto.
Otto accepted Fade's gesture solemnly.
After that, they continued to chat and strode further into the residential area.
On the way, many of the residents greeted Otto cheerfully and some of them even gave gifts. Evidently, Otto was very popular in the area.
After walking for fifteen minutes, they arrived at an old five-story building.
An old-fashioned neon signboard was hung on the second floor. The sign read "Otto Clinic".
"Mr. Chen, this is my house. Please come in!" Otto smiled as he welcomed Fade.
If Otto was not with Fade, the latter would never believe that the old building was the famous Otto Clinic in Jade City.
Fade nodded and strode into the building.
As soon as he entered the first floor, he immediately recognized a familiar herbal scent. A row of cabinets was lined in front of the entrance. A young man and a young woman were organizing a range of herbs in the cabinets.
There was a handwritten sign that read "Otto Clinic" on top of the cabinet. Anyone would tell that it was a good calligrapher that wrote it.
Fade realized that it was not an ordinary clinic. It was the most prestigious clinic in Jade City.
Otto entered the building with Fade and introduced the latter to the duo in the clinic. "Hannah, Teddie, come and meet Mr. Chen."
The duo immediately set their tasks aside and greeted Fade respectfully. They were very grateful as they parted their lips to speak. "Greetings, Mr. Chen."
"Thank you for saving my father, Mr. Chen." "Don't mention it!" Fade replied hurriedly and turned to Otto to ask, "They are?"
Otto chuckled and introduced, "They are my grandchildren, Hannah and Teddie. They are Damian's children."
"Oh, I see. Master Pai, it's admirable that your skills are being passed down to your grandchildren."
Otto waved hand helplessly and replied, "You flatter me, Mr. Chen. Well, it can't be helped. Nowadays, Chinese Medicine practitioners are declining and it takes a long time to learn. Besides, most youngsters wouldn't be interested in this."
"I was worried that my effort would be lost, so I forced them to practice Chinese Medicine. Back then, they would cry whenever I force them to learn!"
Hannah and Teddie were embarrassed. "Grandpa, we were too young to understand that you were doing it for our own good! We understand now and we'll continue the legacy of Otto Clinic." Otto was relieved and he smiled.
A stream of bittersweet emotions flooded Fade. He was glad that the Pai family would continue the legacy. However, he was worried about the diminishing of Chinese Medicine practitioners. Suddenly, several patients arrived at the clinic and they asked, "Dr. Pai, is Otto Clinic open today?"
Otto turned over his shoulder and replied, "I'm a little busy today, so I couldn't tend to you. If you're okay with it, Hannah and Teddie could..."
Before Otto could finish, the patients immediately answered, "It's okay, it's okay, we don't mind. It's just a mild cough. Your grandchildren are very talented and they'll be more than capable of treating us." "Hannah, Teddie, go and check on them!" Otto instructed before turning to Fade and continued, "Mr. Chen, let's go upstairs!"
