chapter 42 A proposal that made her heart beat

The meaning of Edison Qin's intentions was quite clear. Although she didn't actively mention the supply of medicinal herbs, her purpose was evident, and she even intended to discuss it proactively. Ja Jiang, however, hesitated with a sense of unworthiness. After all, the Qin family had announced that they would sell medicinal herbs at half price only if they cured Mr. Qin. She remained silent for a while, while Edison Qin stood there, smiling at her. Seeing this, Ja Jiang also smiled and said, "I won't hide it from you. I came here to treat Mr. Qin because I heard from a friend that the Qin family would offer medicinal herbs at half price to the doctor who cured him. But now that Mr. Qin has just awakened, the specific situation is still unclear. I don't think it's time to discuss compensation with the Qin family yet. At least, we should wait until Mr. Qin's condition improves." Upon hearing this, Edison Qin's smile grew even more sincere. He said, "Dr. Jiang, my grandfather waking up is already a huge surprise for us. I absolutely trust you with the follow-up treatment. So, now you have a reason to talk to me about compensation." Ja Jiang didn't expect him to trust her so much. She hesitated for a moment before taking a seat on the sofa. "You were introduced by Dr. Gu, and when he came to treat Mr. Qin, he mentioned the situation at the research institute to me. But later, he said he couldn't do anything about it, and the matter was put on hold." Edison Qin explained to her, "Now he has recommended you to come, so it must be related to the research institute. I guess I'm not wrong, am I?" Ja Jiang nodded slightly and proceeded to explain the current situation at the research institute. She said, "The research institute currently has several projects, but due to a lack of medicinal herbs, research progress has stalled. We are looking for potential partners in the medicinal herb industry, but we have faced rejection from almost all the medicinal herb suppliers in Hai city. In desperation, Clark Gu thought of the situation at the Qin family and believed that I could come and try." After explaining, Ja Jiang looked at Edison Qin seriously and said, "Of course, even without the promise from the Qin family, I would give my all to treat Mr. Qin's condition. Compensation is just an opportunity." Seeing her serious expression, Edison Qin respected her even more and sincerely said, "I apologize for my previous doubts. You are a great doctor." Ja Jiang accepted the compliment calmly and fixed her gaze on him, waiting for him to bring up the topic of medicinal herbs. Without further ado, after understanding the situation, Edison Qin got straight to the point. "Thanks to your treatment, my grandfather has finally regained consciousness. So, in the future, I entrust my grandfather's care to you. As for the compensation promised by the Qin family, I can make the decision on their behalf. We will provide your research institute with a batch of medicinal herbs for free, which you can consider as our gratitude. In addition, the Qin family will sign a long-term contract with your institute, and all future supplies of medicinal herbs will be provided at half price." Upon hearing this, Ja Jiang slowly understood. Edison Qin now completely believed that she could cure his grandfather. The offer of a free batch of medicinal herbs was both a token of gratitude and a reassurance from Edison Qin. With this batch of medications, she could address the urgent needs of the research institute, allowing her to focus on treating Mr. Qin without distraction. Edison Qin's proposal had greatly piqued her interest. "Alright, rest assured, I will do my utmost to treat Mr. Qin," she replied with determination.
