The man's meaning was very clear: as long as the Qiao family did things for him, he could solve the Qiao family's biggest worry.
He could solve everything, whether it was Qiao Lei's health or his offspring.
"Master, this matter is of great importance. Please give us some time to discuss it."
Looking at the man, Qiao's father felt a chill run down his spine. He tried his best to remain calm and composed.
The man was not satisfied with his answer. He frowned and said, "What I asked you to put there, they won't be able to find out. It will not cause any crisis to your family. My name is Zhen Hui, and I am the second elder of the Ancient Jade Sect. This is a feud between our sects. Ordinary people will not be innocently involved."
Zhen Hui has already introduced himself; he's here to resolve things directly, not to discuss them.
Mr. Qiao's face immediately darkened. He looked at Zhen Hui and said, "Does this mean you're giving orders to the Qiao family?"
Zhen Hui smiled faintly: "We can also say calmly that, in order to achieve the desired result, Mr. Qiao is a smart man."
Upon hearing Zhenhui's words, Qiao's father's expression darkened further.
Wen Fanghui also frowned.
Qiao Yan and Chu Qianqian, the couple, looked even more serious.
They all knew that the emblem was a threat.
Looking at Zhen Hui, who had an air of superiority and complacency, Qiao's father suddenly laughed and shouted, "Butler, see the guest out!"
Damn it, they ask them to do things for them and act like they're doing them a favor. Whoever wants this shit can have it.
The Qiao family is a bit arrogant and often looks down on people.
But when his family asked for favors, they were very proper in their attitude.
Upon hearing her husband's statement, Wen Fanghui immediately adopted a haughty demeanor and said coldly, "Our Qiao family is upright and honest; we would never do such underhanded things. You should find someone more capable!"
Wen Fanghui had long been unhappy about it.
A few months ago, she looked down on Su Luo and was taught a harsh lesson.
But Su Luo has real skills; her treatments and prescriptions are all based on scientific evidence. Zhen Hui just pulls out a box and claims it's a treasure to give people to eat. They might dare to agree, but Qiao Lei might not.
Does he mean there's no problem just because he says so? If you have problems after eating it and can't vomit it up, this kind of mystical stuff has no scientific basis. You might not realize you've been fooled for decades.
"Mr. Zhenhui, please."
Qiao Yan politely extended his hand, gesturing for him to enter.
With his parents having already expressed their support, he, as their son, no longer needs to worry.
Zhen Hui's face darkened. He stared coldly at the Qiao family members, his anger burning within him.
What a fine family the Qiao family is!
His eyes were cold and sharp as he said in a chilling voice, "You will regret this."
Zhenhui was not one to stoop low; he had plenty of ways to make the Qiao family kneel before him and beg for his help in the future.
Since the Qiao family is ungrateful now, he'll wait until they regret it. When that day comes, he won't be so polite anymore.
Zhen Hui turned and left. After he left, Wen Fanghui immediately ordered the servants to check.
"Check if he has left any weird or strange things at home. If you see anything unusual, burn it and throw it away."
Wen Fanghui felt uncomfortable just thinking about it. If she had known that this expert was like this, she wouldn't have let him wander around the main building. Now, just thinking about it made her feel disgusted.
The housekeeper and the servants went to inspect and clean.
In the spacious living room, the family looked at each other.
"Dad, we've offended this person, so we need to make proper arrangements for what's to come."
Qiao Yan looked at his father and said.
Qiao's father was deep in thought when he suddenly frowned and said, "He said he was the second elder of the Ancient Jade Sect. The Ancient Jade Sect, isn't that the sect that was in the newspapers a while ago? The villa corpse case!"
Mr. Qiao gasped. He hadn't thought of this at all while talking to Zhen Hui. The reason he refused was because Zhen Hui's attitude made him very unhappy. He felt that he couldn't befriend such a person.
This is how people act when asking for favors these days. If he actually succeeds, he might look back and remember that the person he asked for favors didn't grovel or agree quickly enough. He'll be furious and definitely want to teach them a lesson.
There are far too many inexplicable hatreds in this world.
Just now he only felt disgusted, but now, thinking of the nationally sensational villa murder case, Qiao's father felt only relief that he had lost his temper and turned against the authorities.
"That, that Ancient Jade Sect, isn't that the place where Qian Yuelan begged for medicine for Xing Xiaomeng? They even said it had no side effects, but my son almost died after taking it, and Xing Xiaomeng's pregnancy wasn't healthy either. How could a place like that possibly have any good medicine!"
Wen Fanghui also remembered it, and the thought sent a chill down her spine.
"Mom and Dad, don't you find it strange? Just now when he was here, we didn't even think of this case when he mentioned Gu Yuzong. We only remembered it after he left!"
Chu Qianqian shuddered as soon as she finished speaking; it was truly terrifying to think about.
The men's expressions turned sour.
"He probably used some kind of method. The case was so sensational, we couldn't possibly not know about it. But when he mentioned the sect, we didn't react at all. We even thought he was very powerful as the Second Elder. If it weren't for his attitude, we might have really fallen for his trick."
Qiao Yan hugged Chu Qianqian to comfort her and also shared his own guesses.
"Don't be afraid of him. When Su Luo comes again tomorrow, tell her that someone is trying to harm her. It's a good thing that we're warning her. Compared to us, Su Luo is the one Zhen Hui really wants to deal with."
Mr. Qiao's eyes darkened as he spoke, thinking of Su Luo. He secretly hoped that Su Luo could win the fight.
If Su Luo can defeat Zhen Hui, the Qiao family will be fine.
If Su Luo is no match for Zhen Hui, he will surely remember the humiliation of being kicked out of the Qiao family today.
Therefore, he sincerely hoped that Gu Yuzong would lose.
Qiao Lei came over after washing up. Seeing that his parents, brother, and sister-in-law all looked a little off, he asked, "What's wrong? Did the talks not go well?"
If things don't go smoothly, then Xing Xiaomeng's baby can't stay.
Qiao Lei sighed, but there was nothing he could do. He wouldn't let Xing Xiaomeng die from giving birth to this child.
"Xiao Lei, it's like this..."
Wen Fanghui pulled Qiao Lei aside and explained the matter in detail.
Qiao Lei frowned: "It's a good thing you refused. I wouldn't dare take that medicine even if you gave it to me. What kind of rare and precious medicine is it? Who knows if it's even real?"
Even if it's true, it doesn't mean the Ancient Jade Sect didn't tamper with things.
Ancient Jade Sect was no good place; they harmed countless people.
"Mom, when Su Luo comes tomorrow, I'll tell her that you should take Xing Xiaomeng to have the surgery tomorrow, and that we shouldn't keep the baby."
Qiao Lei made a decision immediately: keeping this child would only cause trouble.
Gu Yuzong came here specifically because of this child.
It seems that his father found a master through connections, but behind the scenes, it's possible that Gu Yuzong intentionally approached the Qiao family. If this child isn't dealt with, he might accidentally fall into a trap.
Therefore, it's best to resolve this problem as soon as possible.
