Chapter 316: Slap in the Face
In the living room of the front yard, Huo Wuji and two members of the Huo family were sitting in the living room, drinking tea served by Liu Yuan's servants.
The two people from the Huo family who came over together looked at the door of the living room anxiously, and they didn't even have time to drink a sip of the tea in front of them.
When the two saw two figures walking outside, they stood up from their chairs excitedly and looked at Li Yiyi who came in with a nervous look on their faces.
Li Yiyi walked in and glanced at the two strange men, then looked at the man sitting on the chair with a calm face. If she was not mistaken, this man was the member of the Huo family she had met at the auction last time.
Later, she asked someone and found out that this person was not just a member of the Huo family, but also the current head of the Huo family, and the person in charge.
"Mr. Huo." Since the other person didn't introduce himself, Li Yiyi didn't wait for him to speak and directly called out his identity.
When Huo Wuji heard her call out his identity so quickly, there was not much surprise in his eyes. He stood up slowly with a calm smile on his face, "Doctor Li, I have heard of your name for a long time."
Li Yiyi pulled the corners of her mouth, but the smile was just a passing one, "Thank you, I have heard of Mr. Huo's name for a long time."
"Oh, I didn't expect that I, Huo Wuji, also left my name here with Doctor Li. I feel so honored." Huo Wuji said happily.
It was as if he didn't understand what she meant.
Just then, the two men standing beside him walked up anxiously and interrupted their conversation.
"Hello, Doctor Li, my name is Huo Qing, and this is my brother, Huo Ming. We are here to ask you for help in treating my father." Huo Qing squeezed forward and introduced himself with a smile on his face.
Huo Wuji, who was standing by, glanced at him with a displeased expression.
Li Yiyi glanced at the three of them, her lips curled up slightly, "Huo Qing, Huo Ming, you sound like people from the Huo family. Aren't you also a family of traditional Chinese medicine? This illness should be treated by your family members. Why did you come to me for help? Did you make a mistake?"
"You're not mistaken. We're here to ask for help from Doctor Li. Everyone in our Huo family knows your name. No one in our Huo family can cure my father's illness, so we can only come to you for help." Huo Qing didn't care whether the head of the Huo family was still standing next to him, and he didn't care whether he would embarrass his boss. He just told him all the situations they were facing.
Huo Wuji's face was extremely grim at this moment. After all, no one would like it when hearing people from his own clan talk about the family he is in charge of like this.
Li Yiyi held back her laughter and asked the brothers seriously about the current situation of their father.
Upon hearing this, she raised her eyebrows. This sounded a bit weird.
"Doctor Li, you are the only one who can save my father now. Please help us. My brother and I are willing to pay any price." Seeing that she didn't speak, Huo Qing quickly spoke again.
"It sounds like your father's illness seems a bit strange. Has he eaten anything before?" When asking this question, Li Yiyi secretly glanced at Huo Wuji.
Although she had never seen the brothers' father in person, she was sure from their descriptions that there was something strange about their father's illness.
"What did he eat? Not much, but my father had problems with his legs and feet, so I took the boss to see him. But the boss is a member of our Huo family, and he won't harm my father." Huo Qing said after thinking for a while.
Li Yiyi immediately glanced towards Huo Wuji.
Huo Wuji happened to catch her peeking at him, sneered, and asked, "Doctor Li, why are you looking at me like this? Are you suspecting that I was the one who killed the Huo Qing brothers' father?"
Li Yiyi saw that she was caught peeking at someone, but she didn't flinch. She went straight to him and answered him with a smile, "Whether it is related or not, I can't say such things casually. I still have to see the patient to know everything."
"Since you two brothers are so filial, please send your father here," she said.
The two brothers immediately bowed to her happily.
"Let's carry the person in now." Huo Qing said immediately.
Li Yiyi quickly stopped the two brothers who were about to leave, "Have you brought the patient here?"
"Yes, the boss said that you, Doctor Li, will definitely agree to our request. In order to make father get better as soon as possible, we put him in the car, and as soon as you, Doctor Li, agree, we will carry him in." Huo Qing replied happily.
Li Yiyi turned her head to look at Huo Wuji, and just happened to receive a slight smile from him.
But no matter how you look at his smiling face, it seems to be one that harbors malicious intentions.
Obviously, this Huo Dong's son is a handsome man, and he looks gentle and refined, but his temperament gives people a feeling that it does not match his appearance at all.
"Okay, since the patient is here, you can bring him to the backyard. I'll go and prepare something." After saying that, she stood up, nodded to Huo Wuji, and immediately turned around and left the living room.
Jiang Hong, who had been staying by her side, turned around and glanced at Huo Wuji who was sitting behind him before leaving, and subconsciously became wary of this man.
On the way back to the backyard, Jiang Hong told her about his suspicions.
"You guessed right. Huo Wuji has some evil plan in his mind. As for what it is, I can't figure it out yet, but a fox will always show its tail. We just need to wait for his move. Anyway, we know he has bad intentions, so we just need to be on guard against him." Li Yiyi also told him her thoughts.
Soon, the two brothers led a few people and carried a white-haired old man into the backyard. Behind them, Huo Wuji followed them like an invisible man.
If Li Yiyi and Jiang Hong had not been on guard against this guy, they might not have noticed that this guy had followed them in.
The young couple looked at each other, sneered, and pretended not to see it.
At this time, the brothers Huo Qing and Huo Ming were carefully carrying their father inside.
"Doctor Li, this is my father. Thank you for your help." Huo Qing said with gratitude.
Li Yiyi glanced at the sneaky figure in the crowd, then nodded slightly, quickly picked up the patient's hand and began to take his pulse.
Just as he put it on, the next second, a pair of willow-shaped eyebrows raised slightly.
The Huo Qing brothers, who had been observing her facial expression, saw her strange behavior and immediately became nervous. "What's going on, Doctor Li? Can my father's disease be cured?"
"Your father's illness was just simple rheumatism before, how could it develop into such a serious disease?" After putting down the patient's hand, Li Yiyi looked at the two brothers curiously and asked.
