"Bought it?"
As soon as those words were spoken, the office fell into instant silence.
The expressions on everyone's faces froze simultaneously.
Director Li Guohua almost choked on his own saliva.
"Cough, cough, cough..."
He coughed a few times, staring at Chen Fan in bewilderment.
So, you held it in for so long, and this is all you could come up with?
Disappointing! This is so disappointing!
The others also shook their heads one after another.
The anticipation that had just risen instantly dissipated for the most part.
They had thought Chen Fan had recalled some key clue.
But it turned out he just said it was "bought"?
Are you joking?
How is this any different from saying you were saved by an immortal?
No. It's even more absurd.
Something like lifespan, can actually be bought and sold?
If it could really be bought and sold, the world would have been in chaos long ago.
The atmosphere in the office suddenly became somewhat frozen.
Chen Fan, however, was very calm.
Apparently, he had anticipated this situation would occur.
If it had been before today,
if someone had told him that one could buy lifespan,
he would have thought that person had something wrong with their brain.
But now! This kind of thing had actually happened to him for real!
Forget it, let them think what they want.
Anyway, all he wanted was to plant a seed in everyone's hearts.
When the time is ripe, it will naturally sprout.
Thinking of this, Chen Fan shrugged.
However, just at this moment,
a clear but not sharp voice suddenly rang out.
"Bought it?"
"Where did you buy it?"
Everyone was stunned and turned their heads in unison.
The person speaking was the well-dressed middle-aged woman from before.
She had arrived at the office door at some point.
A woman in her twenties was following beside her.
The middle-aged woman looked at Chen Fan with burning eyes.
As if she had grasped some kind of hope.
"Young man, did you just say that your life was bought?"
"Where did you buy it?"
Liu Ruoyun spoke again.
The entire office suddenly became quiet.
Even Chen Fan was taken aback for a moment.
He had originally been wondering,
whether to continue this act, and how to continue it.
He didn't expect someone to take the bait voluntarily.
Chen Fan was amused inside, but he didn't show it on his face.
"On an APP!"
"An APP?"
"That's right, on a piece of software."
Upon hearing this, the doctors and nurses all looked as if he was beyond saving.
Chen Fan didn't feel pressured; he simply pulled out his phone and lit up the screen.
Soon, a golden hourglass icon appeared before everyone's eyes.
【lifespan treasure】
Everyone in the office looked at each other.
lifespan treasure? What kind of software is this? Never heard of it.
"This is software where you can buy and sell lifespan!"
"I bought one year of lifespan on here, and that's how I got better!"
Chen Fan was telling the truth.
However, as soon as these words were spoken,
several sighs of helplessness rang out in the office once again.
As expected. The more he talked, the more absurd it got.
Director Li Guohua was a bit suspicious.
Is this kid stimulated too much by his lung wither disease?
Resulting in some mental issues?
However, just as Chen Fan finished showing the 【lifespan treasure】, the woman beside the middle-aged woman suddenly froze.
Li Peipei stared fixedly at that icon.
Her expression became increasingly strange.
"This software..."
Everyone looked at her simultaneously.
"What's wrong with this software?"
"I've seen it!"
"You've seen it?" Liu Ruoyun was stunned, "Where did you see it?"
"On Dad's phone!"
"What? Old Zhou has it too?!"
Li Peipei nodded noncommittally.
"At noon, Dad brought his phone and asked me, saying he didn't know when a rogue app appeared on his phone, and no matter how he tried to delete it, he couldn't."
"I tried for a long time, but I couldn't do anything about it either."
"Are you sure?"
"Sure!"
"Let's go, let's go take a look!"
Liu Ruoyun had only taken a few steps when her feet suddenly stopped. She turned to look at Chen Fan, "Young man, you have experience, could we ask for your advice?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at Chen Fan in unison.
That look seemed to be saying, let's see how you talk your way out of this next!
Chen Fan shrugged, "Of course."
...
A few minutes later.
Special ward area.
This place was completely different from the ordinary wards.
The floor was covered with soft carpets.
The corridor was quiet and tidy.
The air was permeated with a faint fragrance.
The group quickly arrived at the ward at the very end.
Pushing the door open and entering.
On the hospital bed.
A gaunt middle-aged man was leaning against the head of the bed.
His complexion was sallow.
His breathing was somewhat heavy.
Various imported medicines were placed by the bedside.
One could tell at a glance that the condition was already quite serious.
Seeing everyone enter, the middle-aged man was still a bit puzzled.
"What's the matter?"
Liu Ruoyun stepped forward quickly.
"Old Zhou."
"Where is your phone?"
Zhou Wanshan was taken aback.
"Phone?" "Why ask about that?"
"Take it out first."
Although he didn't understand why,
he still handed over the phone.
Liu Ruoyun took the phone.
She lit up the screen directly.
Soon, her eyes lit up.
"It really is!"
On the screen, a familiar icon was lying there prominently.
A golden hourglass, with an ancient "Lifespan" character on it.
It was exactly the same as the one on the young man's phone!
Zhou Wanshan frowned.
"What on earth is going on?"
Liu Ruoyun took a deep breath.
She briefly recounted what had just happened.
From Chen Fan detecting the condition,
to the recovery of the condition.
Directly mentioning the lifespan transaction.
She told it all.
The more Zhou Wanshan listened, the brighter his eyes became.
After listening to the end, he was completely excited.
"Buy lifespan?" "Can you actually buy lifespan?"
His voice began to tremble.
No one knew better than him that death was approaching.
To treat the illness.
In just one year, he had almost spent all his savings.
He sold over a dozen houses.
He withdrew investments from dozens of companies.
He had tried every method he could.
But his body was getting worse day by day.
Now, a glimmer of hope to survive suddenly appeared.
Even if it was absurd, he didn't want to give up.
"Buy!"
Zhou Wanshan blurted it out without even fully understanding it.
"If it can be bought."
"Then buy it!"
However, as soon as his voice fell,
a young man beside him immediately stood up.
"Dad!" "Don't be impulsive!"
The young man looked at Chen Fan, his eyes full of vigilance.
"This is clearly a scam!"
"Lifespan transaction?"
"Can you believe such nonsense?"
"I think you've gone senile!"
"If lifespan could really be bought and sold, the world would have been in chaos long ago!"
Many people in the ward nodded secretly.
Indeed.
Something like lifespan transaction was too absurd.
It completely exceeded the cognition of a normal person.
However, Chen Fan just stood to the side.
He didn't say a word.
Neither explaining,
nor arguing.
As if everything had nothing to do with him.
Seeing this scene,
it actually left everyone a bit confused.
Could it be they aren't accomplices?
On the hospital bed.
Zhou Wanshan was silent for a moment.
Suddenly he reached out his hand.
"Give me the phone."
"Dad!"
"Bring it here!"
His voice sank.
The young man immediately dared not speak again.
Liu Ruoyun hurriedly handed the phone over.
Zhou Wanshan took a deep breath.
He tapped on 【lifespan treasure】.
The next second.
The page automatically expanded.
No registration, no login, no need to enter any information, as if it had already been registered, a screen popped up directly.
【Authentication successful.】
【Welcome, User: Zhou Wanshan.】
Seeing this, everyone's eyes widened.
But before they could react, immediately after, an information panel appeared before everyone's eyes.
【Name: Zhou Wanshan】
【Age: 53】
【Assets: 16,437,281.53 Yuan】
【Life Rating: A】
【Health Status: Severe failure】
【Remaining Lifespan: 28 days】
In the ward.
It was deathly silent.
Everyone's eyes were wide open.
The name was correct! The age was correct!
What was most unbelievable was the assets!
When looking at that string of numbers,
Zhou Wanshan's complexion changed.
He knew his assets best.
This number... should be about right!
But how could this software know it in such detail?
Especially that last line!
His own life... had less than a month left?!
