By accident, Qiao Wanwan got entangled with a powerful man who had come back to life from death and was disabled.
Qiao Wanwan: "Can't you see I'm a cripple?"
The powerfu...
"Aunt, please watch your words."
"Forget it, business is more important. This woman is not important." Huo Aiyun suppressed her anger and said, "Shi Qian, you find a doctor to treat Grandpa, and similarly, I can find a doctor to treat Dad. We won't interfere with each other, how about that?"
Huo Shiqian frowned and subconsciously looked at Qiao Wanwan.
Qiao Wanwan sensed something, looked up to meet his gaze, and nodded gently.
Huo Shiqian then agreed, "Alright, as long as it doesn't affect Grandpa's health, it's always better to have more hope."
"It's good that you know."
Huo Aiyun soon brought in a middle-aged man, dressed in a long robe and sporting a beard, who looked like a hermit.
Huo Shiqian walked to Qiao Wanwan's side and lowered his voice, "Why did you agree to let someone participate in the treatment? I completely trust you."
"I have my own purpose, you don't need to worry about it."
For some reason, Huo Shiqian's heart was uncontrollably convinced of her.
This girl is clearly younger than him!
Despite his years of experience in the business world and his strategic planning within the Huo Group, he had never listened to anyone so readily.
Even Old Master Huo might not be able to make decisions for him!
Huo Shiqian blurted out, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
The old Chinese medicine doctor took Old Master Huo's pulse, stroked his beard, and said, "Old Master, you've been poisoned."
Huo Shiqian was taken aback!
Qiao Wanwan is a legendary doctor with miraculous healing skills, yet she still needs a blood test to diagnose poisoning. This old Chinese medicine doctor, however, can diagnose it just by taking a pulse.
Qiao Wanwan smiled faintly, but remained silent.
Huo Aiyun hurriedly asked, "Divine Doctor, how can we detoxify?"
"I know how to use the medicine, but I still need a catalyst."
"What kind of medicinal ingredient is it?" Huo Aiyun pressed. "No matter how precious or rare the medicinal material is, the Huo family will find it!"
The old Chinese medicine doctor said, "It needs to be blood that is related to the old man."
“That’s easy,” Huo Aiyun said. “Draw my blood! As long as it can save my dad, I’ll take all my blood!”
"You clearly lack common sense; blood from immediate family members is unusable."
Huo Aiyun: "..."
"Miracle Doctor, do you mean...?"
"Use the blood of a generation beyond your own."
"I understand," Huo Aiyun said. "Shi Qian is my father's grandson, his blood can be used, right?"
"Not necessarily, we need to test it first."
"good!"
Huo Shiqian turned to look at Qiao Wanwan, "Is what he said true?"
"I don't know," Qiao Wanwan said with a smile. "It's okay to have a little blood drawn. Just cooperate and we'll see."
"good."
Huo Shiqian and Su Yimo had their blood drawn quickly. The old Chinese medicine doctor asked for a private room to conduct the tests. After a while, he came out and said, "I'm sorry, the blood from these two people can't be used."
Huo Aiyun looked anxious. "How could this happen!"
The old Chinese medicine doctor asked, "Does the old man not have any other younger relatives?"
Huo Aiyun said hesitantly, "Yes, there is, but..."
"What is it?" the old Chinese medicine doctor said unhappily, "Human life is at stake, what's there to hide now?"
"I have a daughter, perhaps we could try her blood?"
"Call them in for a blood test."
“She’s not in Haicheng,” Huo Aiyun said. “But I kept a blood sample from her at the hospital. Can I use it?”
"Can."
Huo Aiyun immediately sent someone to the hospital to get Ruan Tang's blood sample. After examining it, the old Chinese medicine doctor nodded and said, "This is usable, but this amount of blood is far from enough. We must call someone to the site to donate blood."
Huo Shiqian frowned and subconsciously looked at Qiao Wanwan!
The girl remained remarkably calm, watching the old Chinese medicine doctor with great interest, almost as if she were about to crack open a bag of sunflower seeds.
Huo Aiyun walked up to Huo Shiqian and said seriously, "Shiqian, did you hear that? Your grandfather is on the verge of death and needs your cousin's blood. You must bring her out of prison for me, and quickly!"
Qiao Wanwan: "......"
Huo Shiqian: "..."
"Aunt, you're joking," Huo Shiqian said. "No matter how rich and powerful the Huo family is, they can't be above the law. How could I possibly bring someone who's in jail out of prison?"
"If you don't bring her out of prison, are you just going to watch your grandfather die?! Don't you have any filial piety?!"
Huo Shiqian's gaze darkened slightly, and he said coldly, "This has nothing to do with filial piety. It's that I can't do it, and I'm not capable of doing it."
Huo Aiyun was furious. "You are the eldest grandson of the Huo family, your grandfather's only grandson. He loves you the most! Now that he is on the verge of death, you have cut off his only way to survive. You are truly a fine heir raised by the Huo family!"
Huo Shiqian remained expressionless. "Does Aunt mean that I should spare no expense, risking offending the Zhan family and getting myself into trouble for overstepping the law, to get Ruan Tang out of jail?"
Huo Aiyun did not deny it, "This is the only way to save your grandfather, so of course we have to take the risk! As long as your grandfather can be safe and sound, what does it matter if we have to give up everything!"
“Aunt, in this world, there are some things you can do and some things you can’t do. If the Zhan family is the one who is preventing me from saving my grandfather today, then I will definitely risk the entire Huo Group to fight them, even if it means going bankrupt.”
"But today, what you want me to oppose is not just the Zhan family, but the law. I personally believe that in China, no one is above the law. Even Zhan Jingting cannot just arbitrarily pull a convict out of prison."
Qiao Wanwan was somewhat relieved; her intuition was correct. Huo Shiqian's values were sound, unlike those of the other members of the Huo family.
