Du Heng hesitated for a moment before saying, "Uncle, I can't make any promises without seeing the patient first, but rest assured, I will do my best."
"Hmm, I trust you." Wu Shengnan's father nodded. "I know you have cured quite a few cancer patients before, so don't feel pressured. Treat this case as you normally would. I believe you can handle it."
Listening to his father-in-law's praise, Du Heng didn't feel joy, but rather more pressure. As for what this pressure was, he seemed unsure himself; all he knew was that he felt somewhat constrained.
"Uncle, let me ask a few questions first so I can get a better understanding of the situation. I'm concerned I might not be able to ask that senior directly later."
"Alright, I'll tell you anything I know."
Du Heng nodded and asked directly, "How old is this senior?"
"Fifty-five. He's one year older than me."
"Does he smoke or drink?"
