Ling Zhenfei felt a bit surprised because when he saw the Prince, Emelin suddenly came to his mind.
Both he and Emelin are from the Middle East and speak in a similar manner. Could there be some connection between them?
Ling Zhenfei was just guessing without thinking too much, and the three of them quickly greeted the Prince.
Since the Prince himself greeted them, they naturally returned the gesture.
After seating the three of them, the Prince began to speak. Although his Mandarin wasn't very standard, it was understandable.
The Prince said, "Today we unexpectedly heard about a very special auction here. As you can see, I am very fond of Huaxia culture.
So I brought them along to have a look, and unexpectedly discovered such an item being fiercely contested.
Although I am well-traveled, I truly don't know what's so special about this item. Could you please explain it to me?"
The three were shocked. Ling Zhenfei marveled inwardly; it was unexpected that this foreigner, spending seven hundred million, bought something without knowing its purpose.
He just saw people fiercely competing for it and figured it was valuable, truly inciting envy.
Ling Zhenfei said, "This item is mine, so let me explain it to Your Highness the Prince."
"Please go ahead!" The Prince appeared to be very polite.
Ling Zhenfei said, "This item is called Heart-Talk Fruit Seeds. The Heart-Talk Fruit is a very rare and precious fruit, rich in various trace elements needed by the human body, and its taste is very unique.
Nowadays, a single fruit can sell for tens of thousands of RMB, but you still can't get it because there is currently only one tree in the world that bears Heart-Talk Fruit. You see, isn't it extremely valuable?"
After hearing that, the Prince looked at the Heart-Talk Fruit Seeds in the small box beside him and said, "So this seed turns out to be such a miraculous thing. I'm truly fortunate; it seems I've bought a treasure today."
Ling Zhenfei said, "That's right, as the saying goes, rarity increases value, and perhaps it won't be long before you can taste a fruit from this tree that no one else has eaten."
The Prince was very pleased and said, "Great, truly great. I will plant it in my garden once I take it back."
Ling Zhenfei felt a slight worry in his heart, unsure if the Heart-Talk Fruit could adapt to the dry environment of the Middle East.
At this moment, the Prince looked at Ling Zhenfei and said, "Sir, just by looking at you, I can tell you're no ordinary person. Is your name Ling Zhenfei?"
Ling Zhenfei replied, "Indeed, I am Ling Zhenfei. There's nothing extraordinary about me; I'm just an average person."
The Prince chuckled and said, "Sir, there's no need to be modest. I've actually known about you for a long time. You're an exceptionally skilled doctor." This surprised Ling Zhenfei; he never expected that this Prince would know about him.
Ling Zhenfei asked, "Prince, how did you know?"
The Prince said, "Although you consider yourself an ordinary person, in many people's eyes, you're quite extraordinary.
We have a lot of Huaxia People in our region who engage in various kinds of work. I've heard about you from them. They say your medical mastery is unparalleled, and there's no patient you can't heal."
Ling Zhenfei felt shocked inside. Could someone really hold such a high opinion of him?
"That is truly an overstatement; I'm not worthy of such a title."
The Prince said, "No matter how you see it, you've left such an impression on others. Today, I found you because I wanted to inquire about something."
Ling Zhenfei was taken aback. When the Prince mentioned him earlier, Ling Zhenfei felt that things weren't that simple. Now, the Prince was asking him for information.
"What does the Prince want to know? If I know about it, I will certainly tell you everything I can."
The Prince said, "It's actually nothing major. My sister, named Emelin, her father fell seriously ill. Not long ago, they came to Huaxia. I wonder if they've contacted you."
Ling Zhenfei's heart stirred; it turned out that the Prince and Emelin knew each other and were siblings.
No wonder he always felt Emelin and the Prince were acquainted, as their manner of speech and what they said were quite similar.
Just as he was about to say that he knew Emelin, he suddenly hesitated, feeling that he should remain cautious.
He still didn't know the Prince's true intentions or whether they aligned with his own suspicions. If there were other matters involved, it could become complicated.
Ling Zhenfei said, "The Prince's sister must be a princess. I'm sorry; the princess hasn't contacted me."
The Prince showed a hint of surprise and said, "That's strange. Logically, since she brought her father here, it should be to seek your medical expertise. How could she not have contacted you?"
Hearing this, Ling Zhenfei felt even more hesitant. This Prince indeed had some questionable points; at the very least, his relationship with Emelin wasn't as he had thought.
Ling Zhenfei said, "Perhaps the princess hasn't found me yet. As you know, I always travel from one place to another, who knows if the princess went to my hometown."
The Prince said, "That makes some sense."
Ling Zhenfei asked, "Why, Prince, have you been unable to contact the princess?"
The Prince said, "Yes, after they came to Huaxia, they changed their phone numbers, so now we can't reach her."
Ling Zhenfei's heart stirred, realizing he guessed correctly. It was fortunate he remained cautious and didn't tell the Prince earlier, as the Prince and Emelin's relationship was indeed not so close. If it were, how could they be unable to contact her?
Ling Zhenfei said, "No worries, if the princess truly came to seek my medical help, she will certainly find a way to contact me. At that point, I'll have her call you first to get in touch."
The Prince showed mild disappointment and said, "Alright, I'll give you my phone number. If Emelin contacts you, just call me.
Actually, I have other matters to discuss with her, but she's deliberately avoiding me and refuses to contact me, so if she reaches out to you, don't tell her about our connection. Just quietly give me a call."
Upon hearing this, Ling Zhenfei felt relieved. The Prince indeed had underlying intentions and was not as simple as he appeared. It was a good thing he stayed cautious and didn't disclose anything to the Prince. Who knows what could have happened otherwise.
Ling Zhenfei said, "Okay, I will definitely tell you."
The Prince said, "That's truly appreciated. By the way, concerning the seeds, the auctioneer mentioned that once it sprouts and it is confirmed that the seeds can indeed grow, then they will be delivered to me, correct?"
Ma Long, who was beside them, said, "That's right. At that time, sir, please leave your contact details and address, and we will send it over to you."
The Prince said, "If, by then, we've returned to our own country, can you still deliver it to us?"
