Bai Shimu first saw Gu Jueye on news reports. He was from a prestigious family, exceptionally handsome and elegant. Her first impression of him? "A demon!"
The second time she met Gu ...
"Oh, your daughter is really beautiful."
Bai Kangyan smiled politely: "Miss Huo is also very beautiful and so knowledgeable and cultured. It is clear that she has a very good upbringing."
"Mr. Bai is too modest."
Huo Xiuxiu presented herself as a lady from a prominent family. In Bai Kangyan's opinion, Huo Xiuxiu was more convincing than the eccentric Zhu Qinghan.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Miss Huo."
You're too kind.
Huo Xiuxiu walked to the bedside, reached out and carefully lifted Han Songyan's eyelids. After observing the patient's pupils for a while, she systematically conducted a series of professional examinations.
"Has the patient been receiving acupuncture treatment recently?" Huo Xiuxiu turned to Bai Kangyan and asked when she noticed some tiny needle marks on Han Songyan's body.
Bai Kangyan looked at Bai Qianmo and said, "Yes, one of my daughter's friends is an expert in traditional Chinese medicine. She comes every day these past two days."
"The technique looks very skillful, and the acupoints are located very accurately, but..."
"But what?"
Huo Xiuxiu smiled: "However, the acupuncture treatment she used was not comprehensive. If the Shenting acupoint and Tongtianxue were added to connect the Qi to Baihui, the effect would be better."
Bai Kangyan's eyes brightened, and Dr. Liao said, "Xiuxiu, I heard from your father that your acupuncture skills are already very professional, and even showing signs of surpassing your father. Why don't you treat Mrs. Bai?"
Huo Xiuxiu looked hesitant.
Bai Kangyan asked, "Miss Huo, is there something troubling you?"
"No, that's not it. I can provide Mrs. Bai with the relevant treatment, but I wonder if the doctor who treated Mrs. Bai before will have any objections? I heard from Uncle Liao that the young lady made a bet with Uncle Liao and the others that if Mrs. Bai eventually wakes up, should the credit go to me or to the other party?"
Bai Luoyu stared intently at Huo Xiuxiu: "Miss Huo was able to discover the problem based on Miss Zhu's acupuncture, which is enough to show that your medical skills are much better than Miss Zhu's. Of course, it counts as yours."
Bai Qianmo glanced at Bai Luoyu.
This idiot, he loses all his integrity when he sees a beautiful woman.
"My friend helped with the treatment for four consecutive days and guaranteed that the patient would wake up within a week. Now that someone else has joined in, it's not appropriate to attribute the patient's recovery to Miss Huo, is it?"
"It's been four days already, and Mom still shows no signs of waking up..." Bai Luoyu argued softly.
Bai Qianmo looked at Huo Xiuxiu: "If Miss Huo's medical skills are truly superior, could you please wait until the agreed-upon seven-day period has expired before treating the patient?"
The man standing behind Huo Xiuxiu glared coldly at Bai Qianmo.
"Do you think my young lady comes here specifically to treat patients?"
"Adu!"
Huo Xiuxiu spoke, and the arrogant man immediately obeyed and retreated.
"Uncle Liao, since you've made a bet with someone, then I'll come back after the seven-day deadline. I'm also very interested to see who has the audacity to make such a bet."
Huo Xiuxiu was unconvinced, convinced that the other party was just a half-baked idiot who dared to make such a bet out of ignorance.
It's clearly a foolish and ignorant act.
Let alone her, even if her father or second uncle came in person, they wouldn't dare guarantee that they could revive a living dead person who was in a deep coma within seven days.
"Then let's find out in three days."
As Huo Xiuxiu left the ward, she turned back and gave Bai Qianmo a deep look.
After Huo Xiuxiu left, Dr. Liao pulled Bai Kangyan aside to talk.
“Kang Yan, Huo Xiuxiu is the daughter of the Huo family in Y country. Someone of her status would not be able to be invited unless she happened to be in China on business. You must seize this opportunity.”
After saying that, Dr. Liao gave the name of a hotel.
"Huo Xiuxiu is currently staying at this hotel. If she needs any help, she should contact the relevant people."
"Thank you, Lao Liao. I will definitely visit Miss Huo in person with gifts another day."
After Dr. Liao left.
Bai Luoyu pondered for a moment: "Dr. Liao, what do you mean by this? I have a feeling that Huo Xiuxiu's appearance here is not simply to see a patient."
After saying this, Bai Luoyu looked at Bai Kangyan and Bai Qianmo.
What do you think?
Bai Qianmo nestled on the sofa, seemingly idly playing mobile games, wearing headphones to block out the outside world.
Bai Kangyan let out a long sigh.
"No matter what Huo Xiuxiu's purpose is, if she can really wake your mother up, I will definitely do it if it is within my power."
"What if they're here for the Bai family?" a cold voice rang out.
Bai Kangyan frowned and looked at Bai Qianmo.
"Qianmo, do you think Huo Xiuxiu is after the Bai family?"
Bai Qianmo gave a meaningful twitch of her lips, took off her left earphone, and her thick, long eyelashes trembled slightly.
"The Huo family has been trying to expand into Asia recently, while the Bai family has a close partnership with the UK Fund, which also holds 10% of the Bai family's shares. The Huo family has been watching you from the shadows for a long time. Huo Xiuxiu's appearance here today is clearly a case of a weasel paying respects to a chicken."
Both Bai Kangyan and Bai Luoyu showed expressions of astonishment.
"It seems the Huo family has ill intentions. Dad, we need to be prepared to deal with them."
Bai Kangyan remained silent for a long time, eventually letting out an endless sigh.
The Bai family business was founded by him, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was like another child to him.
If the Huo family sets their sights on it, there is a high possibility that it will be acquired.
