Kidney-Deficient Young Master Zhao Tianci

Chapter 11: Kidney-Deficient Young Master Zhao Tianci

The Daoist's real name was Cheng Bo. The nickname came about because he was always at the Daoist temple.

For four years of university, he practically lived at the temple, and he was proud of it.

He considered it a form of entertainment that allowed him to release himself quickly without delaying his main pursuits.

He even left behind a classic quote: "It's not that I can't afford a girlfriend, it's just that the Daoist temple offers better value for money."

He was known as the Innate Daoist Sacred Body.

Cheng Bo was indeed as he claimed. Compared to Yang Genshuo and his ilk, who were like academic parasites that felt ants crawling all over them if they didn't talk about girls for a day, he was extremely focused on his studies.

While Yang Genshuo went through years of failing the civil service exam, working, quitting, and trying to start a business, Cheng Bo progressed from a Master's to a Ph.D., specializing in his beloved seed science. He was now a postdoctoral researcher at Shimen Agricultural University, having published multiple papers on modern seed science. He was likely to become the youngest professor at Shimen Agricultural University within the next year or two.

Yang Genshuo and Cheng Bo had a very close personal relationship.

Because...

"Dao Ye, are you busy this afternoon? Let's go out for a bath!"

A surprised yet wise voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Is that really true, Godfather!?"

"Of course. What kind do you like? I'll arrange it for you."

"Compared to my stuffy research environment, I need a cheerful, optimistic, and open-minded confidante who can help me open up and guide me."

"Mmm, I understand."

"Alright."

After hanging up, Yang Genshuo walked into the courtyard by himself and opened Keep to start exercising.

It wasn't that he was particularly disciplined, but there was a fire in his lower abdomen that made him uncomfortable if he didn't vent it.

"This medicine is potent! If I could get a pharmacy license and sell this stuff, I'd be a millionaire."

Men are always willing to pay for lewdness.

However, it was just a thought. If he were to actually do it, the new drug approval process alone would be the death of him. What if they discovered plant ingredients that didn't belong to this world?

At that point, forget opening a pharmacy; he'd be arrested as a spy from the 'Three-Body' universe.

But if he could find a kidney-deficient old man and somehow sell him this pill that made him hard as a rock, and a course of treatment would cure his kidney deficiency.

An old man of that age, having earned money for half his life, who wouldn't want to enjoy himself?

Ding dong~

The doorbell rang.

A WeChat message also arrived on his phone.

[Lin Yue: "Boss, let's eat."]

He opened the door, and Lin Yue walked in carrying a lunchbox.

Dressed in her usual fresh and simple style, without any makeup, her youthful aura alone was enough to lift his spirits.

But when Yang Genshuo saw Lin Yue wearing tight jeans today, he inwardly thought it was bad.

As she bent over to arrange the lunchbox, her two rounded curves filled out the jeans, creating a strong visual contrast with her slender, graspable waist.

What was even more fatal was that as she moved, her rounded curves naturally trembled, making it even more breathtaking.

Lin Yue always dressed conservatively, never revealing anything, but these tight jeans were truly unbearable. Wearing them was more intense than not wearing them at all. Yang Genshuo's eyes seemed to have activated a spirit, locking onto the frame.

The medicinal power he had just cultivated surged again, this time even more fiercely, rushing straight into his nasal cavity.

After Lin Yue finished with the lunchbox, she looked at Yang Genshuo, who was tilting his head back, using tissue to stop the bleeding, with a confused expression.

She took out her phone.

"Boss, why are you bleeding from your nose?"

"I've been exercising too much these past two days. It's nothing."

"Oh, then I'll cover your food for you. You can eat when you stop bleeding."

She stood up and, with her back to Yang Genshuo, started tidying the lunchbox again. Her rounded curves were right in front of him, within easy reach.

"Don't!"

Yang Genshuo quickly stopped Lin Yue from using her 'worsen the wound' combo skill, then rapidly finished his meal and sent her away.

After another half hour of intense training, his body finally returned to normal.

Yang Genshuo touched his taut stomach, feeling it wasn't as bouncy as before.

"Am I really going to get 8-pack abs?"

He originally had no willpower for fitness, but he couldn't resist the medicine pushing him forward.

Lin Yue's visit had released a significant portion of the medicinal power stored in his two kidneys. He now felt like he had refined half of it.

He took a shower, grabbed a bottle of Gu Jing Hui Yuan Pills in a white blue-and-white porcelain bottle, and went out.

"Let my good son enjoy himself first."

When he first learned that he was going to open his first Script Murder Store, Cheng Bo gave him all the money he had, except for a school cafeteria meal card.

Yang Genshuo would never forget this.

Later, after he made some money, he would invite Cheng Bo for foot massages whenever he had free time. He couldn't let his brother truly be a forever manager, right?

Before going out, Yang Genshuo adjusted the game's speed to match reality, just in case anything unexpected happened while he was out.

In the afternoon, Yang Genshuo met Dao Ye in the city center.

"Godfather, where are we going?"

"White Swan."

"Hiss~ The prices there aren't cheap. Did you strike it rich, Godfather?"

"It's fine, I don't have to pay."

"Holy crap! Godfather, you're that impressive?"

"Heh."

The White Swan was first-class in all of Shimen City.

Going there meant top-tier enjoyment, with no downsides except for the price.

No, being bothered by the price was my downside.

Cheng Bo was truly excited here; he genuinely liked this place.

"VIP, please come in~"

As soon as they entered, two young women in high-slit qipaos came over, linked their arms, and led them inside.

The sense of prestige started right at the entrance.

These two greeters were both 1.7 meters tall, with excellent figures and temperaments. They wore sincere smiles and didn't mind some sweet contact at all. They chatted and laughed all the way as they escorted them to the bathing area.

Behind them, a black Bentley Bentayga stopped, and a young man wearing a red T-shirt and sunglasses stepped out.

"Young Master Zhao~ You're here, come in, come in quickly. Still going to the third floor today?"

Zhao Tianci's lips curved into a sinister smile. Just as he was about to agree, he felt in his pants pocket and didn't find the small pills he always carried. His expression changed slightly.

"No, we'll go to the second floor today."

Then he coolly walked into the bathing area.

Beside him, two men who looked a bit older were washing and chuckling lewdly.

"Dao Ye, I guarantee this will make you vigorous after you take it. I tried it, and I really couldn't stop."

"Me, with my talent, need to take that? That's hilarious!"

"Chinese medicine ingredients, no side effects, treats kidney deficiency, no sugar. Effects within 3 minutes, lasts for 7 days, then permanently improves kidney function."

"If you don't disdain me, Bo is willing to become your Godfather!"

Listening to the two men chat, Zhao Tianci almost burst out laughing.

"Chinese medicine? Effects in 3 minutes? Permanently improves kidney function? Are these two acting in a web drama?"

Zhao Tianci had considerable research into taking drugs. There was absolutely no such medicine in the world, otherwise, with his status as Young Master Zhao, someone would have undoubtedly shoved it into his mouth.

After showering, they parted ways.

But Young Master Zhao, who had no desire today, was walking on the second floor when he suddenly turned and walked towards Yang Genshuo and Cheng Bo's room.

He crouched by the door and watched Yang Genshuo take out a small porcelain bottle, take out a large pill from it, and give it to another person to eat. Two minutes later, his pants were bulging.

Bang!

Cheng Bo walked out from inside, rushing to the third floor.

Zhao Tianci's eyebrows furrowed. He looked through the small window at the small porcelain bottle on the table, seeming to recall something.

"It is said that in the early years, there was a divine medicine called the Ten-Great-Supplement Pill. After taking it, it was incredibly nourishing. Even a dying person could be kept alive for another week by taking one pill. Could it be..."

Two hours later

Cheng Bo came down from the third floor full of vigor, his face radiating confidence. It was as if he was about to broadcast it throughout the club with a megaphone.

Zhao Tianci hadn't had a foot massage the whole time, just fidgeting anxiously.

He threw 100 yuan to the nearby waiter.

"Go to the third floor and find the technician who just served him."

"Coming right up!"

The young man ran off quickly. After a short while, a technician was half-dragged and half-pulled down from the third floor.

"What are you doing~ Oh~ I really have no strength, find someone else. My legs are trembling now."

Zhao Tianci happened to know this technician and asked directly, "Xiao Miao, was the person just now strong?"

"Ah? It's Young Master Zhao! Then... he's definitely far from you."

"Be honest." Three red bills were thrown down, and Xiao Miao immediately confessed.

"Terrifyingly strong. Today was truly difficult."

After going downstairs, Zhao Tianci's heart pounded. He was about to meet a benefactor.

Meanwhile, Yang Genshuo had important business with Cheng Bo. After finishing, he urged him to leave quickly.

"Dao Ye, let's go settle the bill!"

"Oh, wait, Shuo Ge, didn't you say you wouldn't have to pay?"

"I didn't pay, did I?"

"???"

"Just tell me if my medicine worked well."

"Damn it! I fell for your trick!"

As the two bickered, the waitress said with a smile, "Your bill, Young Master Zhao has already paid it."

"Young Master Zhao? Who?"

Beep beep~

The Bentley parked at the entrance honked.

The two walked over, completely dazed.

The electric door slowly opened.

Zhao Tianci smiled and said, "Two big brothers, where are you going? This little brother can give you a ride?"

"Do we know each other?"

Zhao Tianci's eyes darted around, remembering Cheng Bo's words at the bathhouse.

"We don't know each other now, but if you don't mind, Ci is willing to be adopted as your Godfather!"

"?"

What's going on? Came out for a bit and suddenly became a father?

"Godfather, please come up and explain!"

They had to give the Bentley some face, and the meal they were just arranged was quite sincere.

"Where are you two going?"

"Agricultural University."

"Huh? You're studying at Agricultural University too?"

"How surprising, you should call him Teacher Cheng."

On the road, after Zhao Tianci haltingly described his friend's current inability to get up, Yang Genshuo understood.

"You want to buy my [Gu Jing Hui Yuan Pill] for your friend? This stuff is very expensive."

"Money is not a problem." Zhao Tianci patted the steering wheel, looking confident.

He didn't meet a kidney-deficient old man, but a kidney-deficient young master. Yang Genshuo felt the world was a bit too coincidental.

Since that was the case, it would be foolish not to make money. He would fleece this kidney-deficient young master.

They arrived at Agricultural University.

"My medicine is at home. If you need it urgently today, wait for us for a while. If not, I'll give you an address, and you can come find me tomorrow."

"My dorm is right here. I'll wait for you! Call me when you're out."

Zhao Tianci drove the Bentley directly under the dormitory building. The security guard didn't dare to say a word. Students on the road looked at the Bentley with envious eyes.

Some straightforward girls even took the initiative to ask for Zhao Tianci's WeChat, as he leaned against the Bentley.

"Damn! If you're not kidney-deficient, who is!"

Yang Genshuo grumbled as he opened Dongchedi and added the Bentley Bentayga to his wishlist.

But that was a matter for the future. If he handled the current matter well, he dared to say he wouldn't lack Bentleys to drive in the future.

He had important business with Cheng Bo today.

Click~

The lights on the ceiling of Cheng Bo's laboratory lit up one by one. The bright white light was cold and rational, just like the atmosphere of the laboratory.

"Shuo Ge, put on a lab coat."

Cheng Bo, who entered the laboratory, was like the Dao Ye (he) from the foot massage that afternoon, having been possessed. His back was straight, his aura was extremely strong, and he was rigorous and serious, making people trust him.

After they had both changed, Yang Genshuo took out 10 golden ears of spiritual rice.

It was a complete specimen with roots, stems, leaves, ears, and grains.

At first glance, it looked similar to common rice.

"Huh? A new variety of rice? Which laboratory cultivated this? Do you have the gene map?"

Cheng Bo noticed it wasn't an existing rice variety with just one glance.

"You're quite perceptive, but this wasn't cultivated in a lab. It's a naturally grown rice. I want you to help me see what's different between this and traditional rice, and if we can cultivate it in a lab or greenhouse."

If the spirit rice could be cultivated and grown on Earth, it would be interesting. He could realize many strange and wonderful ideas.

Although the energy levels in the Cultivation World were much higher than Earth's, Yang Genshuo still believed modern science could achieve things cultivators couldn't. Empowering the Yang Family with science would allow them to establish themselves more firmly in the brutal Cultivation World.

Researching spirit rice was his first step.

Cheng Bo peeled off a grain of rice and placed it under a high-magnification microscope. After just one look, his expression changed drastically.

"There's radiation! This rice grain contains radioactive elements!"

"Huh?"

"Shuo Ge, you need to get a full body check-up immediately!"

"Don't rush, don't rush. It's not that serious, is it? Aren't we wearing lab coats? These protect against radiation too. Take another look."

"Hmm, if it is radiation, then it's reasonable for a new, deformed variety to emerge." Cheng Bo's brows were tightly furrowed.

Yang Genshuo was completely dazed by Cheng Bo's mention of 'radiation'.

Where was the promised spirit rice?

Ordinary people eating it could extend their lifespan and ward off all illnesses. How could it be related to radiation?

Cheng Bo put the rice grain into various instruments for analysis. Several hours later, he held a stack of test reports.

His tightly furrowed brows relaxed.

"This radiation... doesn't seem to pose a threat to the human body. It even stimulates the body to produce some kind of special reaction, a reaction I've never seen mentioned in any paper."

"But based on the results and tests, it seems beneficial. It's like... like infrared radiation. Moderate exposure can accelerate wound healing and relieve muscle fatigue."

"Although it's incredible, perhaps we've discovered a new type of radioactive substance that is beneficial to the human body."

After pondering for a while with the reports in hand, Cheng Bo grabbed Yang Genshuo, his expression excited.

"Shuo Ge, we're going to win a Nobel Prize."

Yang Genshuo also breathed a sigh of relief.

I knew it~ It's something immortals eat, how could it be harmful.

At this moment, Yang Genshuo gradually began to understand.

The 'radiation' Cheng Bo mentioned was likely the spiritual energy stored within the spirit rice.

He held back the excited Cheng Bo.

"Dao Ye, I know you're anxious, but don't be. Only the two of us can know about this. I'll tell you why later."

"Right now, I want to know if this can be cultivated in your lab."

Cheng Bo seemed not to understand, waving his arms excitedly.

"Shuo Ge, the Nobel Prize! We're going to bring glory to our country!"

"Can it be cultivated?"

Seeing Yang Genshuo's calm demeanor, Cheng Bo's fiery enthusiasm slowly subsided. Their years of unspoken understanding made him seem to understand something.

"Theoretically, yes."

"Good. This matter is between you and me, understand?"

"Understood."

"Excellent, you truly are my good son!"

"Get lost!"

The two closed the lab door. Cheng Bo returned to his dorm to rest, while Yang Genshuo called Zhao Tianci, arranging to go home together to get medicine.

Walking on the asphalt road on campus, feeling the beautiful university atmosphere, Yang Genshuo felt as if he had returned to his own university days, his mood incredibly pleasant.

Directly ahead of him, a group of university students walked slowly, chatting and laughing on the road. There were both males and females, looking like they had just finished a club activity.

"Wanting, I heard you broke up with that sleazy guy? Is it true?"

"Oh~ I told you all that wasn't my boyfriend. I just met him playing script murder mysteries. He added me on WeChat and kept bothering me. I felt bad about always refusing, so we just had a few meals."

A guy named Fei Yang immediately got excited:

"Ah? Really? Then, actually, I, I've always liked you since the first day of school. Can you... give me a chance? I promise I'll treat you well!"

"Then you'll have to queue up. Yesterday, Zhao Tianci from Zhao Corporation just added our Wanting on WeChat. He's coming on strong. I wonder if you can compete with him?"

Her best friend Xiao Xiao said from the side, making Fei Yang's face awkward.

Chen Wanting smiled demurely, "Actually, the identity of my significant other isn't important to me. The main thing is that they are willing to put in effort for me and treat me well."

Fei Yang's hope immediately reignited.

"Wanting, watch my performance. I guarantee no one can treat you better than I will!"

"Wow~~~"

The classmates teased each other. Chen Wanting smiled, handling it with ease.

However, Yang Genshuo had some reservations about their conversation.

Another update will be in the evening.
