Chapter 671 Even the Golden Immortal cannot save him
Crying at a funeral?
Sun Weimeng was stunned. He looked at him and asked, "Whose funeral are you crying for?"
"Then we have to wait for news."
Huo Xingzhou looked back at the closed door. Cheng Han was barely alive when he was rescued, covered in blood. He was old and might not survive such an ordeal.
The person who is suffering the most at this moment must be Qiao Xi.
Sun Weimeng was horrified. "Isn't this about to mourn for the traditional Chinese medicine doctor Cheng Han? This old man is the one who saved me from danger. He was the one who gave me the prescription that Qiao Xi gave me in the first place. Nothing must happen to him..."
"There are so many people who want him dead."
Huo Xingzhou's eyes were gloomy.
Sun Weimeng didn't dare to say anything when he saw his terrifying expression. He just stood with him in the corridor and didn't dare to run around.
The entire Huo family villa is like an ice cellar.
Sun Weimeng didn't even dare to breathe.
I don’t know how long I waited in the corridor, but the door finally opened.
Qiao Xi walked out exhausted, covered in blood, with trembling fingers.
There are red bloodshot eyes.
Sun Weimeng rushed over and asked, "How is he? Can he be saved? Why don't we take him to the hospital to see a specialist? You can't handle it alone."
Qiao Xi's throat was dry. She glanced at Sun Weimeng, then fixed her gaze on Huo Xingzhou, who was walking briskly. "He's seriously injured. I've done my best to keep Grandpa Cheng alive. But he has multiple bruises in his body. How he recovers depends entirely on his luck."
She wasn't sure what it would be like when he woke up.
Because of falling from a height, the brain was injured, the limbs were injured to varying degrees, and the internal organs were also damaged.
If someone really wanted to harm him, it would be to take his life.
Qiao Xi couldn't help but wonder if Grandpa Cheng's life could have been saved if it had been a little later.
"You're already very impressive for saving your life. The other party didn't check carefully when he fell, and delayed for several days. Maybe they thought he was dead for sure." Huo Xingzhou sneered.
The man was found in the deep mountains and forests, where few people go.
If he hadn't sent out so many people, each of whom was an elite in wild survival, it would have been impossible to find it.
And judging from the height from which Cheng Han fell and the traces left on him, it had been a few days.
At such a high altitude and with so much time wasted, anyone would think he was dead!
Who would have thought that this old man had such strong perseverance? I wonder what kind of belief made him suffer for so long!
He just didn't take his last breath!
Qiao Xi pursed her dry lips and asked, "So what should we do next? Can the plan you told me last time still be carried out?"
"certainly!"
Huo Xingzhou closed his eyes and said calmly, "Next... announce the death! We're going to tell a huge lie, a rumour that will shake the world. Announce to the public that Dr. Cheng Han is dead."
“…”
Qiao Xi looked at him, her fingers clenched into fists, "Is this okay? What if there's a flaw?"
"No."
Huo Xingzhou reached out and spread her fingers apart one by one. "Trust me, I have everything arranged. Also, no one thinks that you, as Cheng Han's apprentice, would play such a joke. Let's do the opposite. If Grandpa Cheng can wake up, he will definitely understand us."
Qiao Xi took a deep breath. "It just so happens that I can contact that woman surnamed Cheng from the Chinese Medicine Association. Let's do a paternity test privately to see if they are really father and daughter. If not, then it must be the Lu family's deliberate act, and I won't have to use the Jade Muscle Cream to switch them."
There is another very tricky problem.
Qiao Xi blinked her eyelashes and decided to wait for the paternity test between Grandpa Cheng and Ms. Cheng.
"Fortunately, Old Chen kept a few strands of Ms. Cheng's hair last time, and they came in handy this time." Qiao Xi admired Old Chen's cleverness.
Huo Xingzhou reminded him, "The paternity test needs to be done in Haicheng. If it gets out in the capital, the news will leak out. I will arrange for bodyguards to take the test materials to Haicheng tonight and get the results as soon as possible."
"Um!"
The couple discussed all the details, and Sun Weimeng's brain was about to explode listening to them.
He opened his mouth in disbelief.
"You're even telling such a lie. Aren't you cursing Mr. Cheng? You're truly too bold. Aren't you afraid of being scolded to death by Mr. Cheng's followers?"
Huo Xingzhou looked at him and said, "As long as you keep your mouth shut, no one will criticize us. When the time is right, my husband and I will naturally apologize to the public."
“When is the right time?”
"The day when the Lu family is overthrown."
As long as Lu Yingxue and Lu Bannong were punished, everything would stop.
If you want to destroy it, you must first make it crazy.
I guess now that the Lu family has confirmed Cheng Han's death, they will act even more outrageously.
Sun Weimeng's mind was in a mess. He followed his instinct and said, "Don't worry. Even if the Lu family captures me and tortures me in every way, I won't surrender. I will fight this evil force to the death!"
He suddenly remembered something, "Should we tell Huo Sijiao?"
"No. The third floor is under strict guard. If she has anything wrong, it will be written on her face, which will make it easier for the Lu family to see it."
"oh."
Sun Weimeng nodded. Now the greatest pressure was on him!
Huo Xingzhou looked at the bodyguard standing by the corridor and said, "Now arrange for a funeral home. We need the largest funeral home in the imperial capital. Send the body to the crematorium and cremate it as soon as possible. If anyone asks, just say that he was badly injured and stayed in the wild for a few days without being seen."
"Yes, Mr. Huo."
When the bodyguard heard this, he immediately went to make arrangements.
Sun Weimeng didn't dare to ask where the body came from. After following Huo Xingzhou for a long time, he was really afraid that he would be silenced one day.
soon.
The news of the Huo family's disaster spread throughout the imperial capital.
Someone was sent to contact the funeral home overnight and to recall those who were outside. Huo Xingzhou even canceled all important meetings, and Qiao Xi also rejected many people's requests for treatment.
How could such a big move be hidden from those who have ulterior motives?
…
The night is dark.
The Lu family's house was brightly lit.
Lu Bannong opened a bottle of expensive champagne in the living room.
He didn't usually drink, and Lu Yingxue had never seen her father so happy. Her father was always strict in private, and he was always very strict with her, never allowing her to slack off.
It was rare for her to see him in such a good mood, so she sat opposite him.
"Father, you are so happy..."
"The Huo family finally found Cheng Han's body. After so many days, I'm afraid he must have been eaten by the wild beasts in the deep mountains and old forests and is no longer recognizable. I heard that the Huo family sent him directly for cremation..."
His people had already reported that Cheng Han was dead and there had been no movement since he fell off the cliff.
Even the Golden Immortal couldn't save an old man in his eighties after such a fall!
Lu Bannong felt that his biggest worry had been removed and no one would pursue what happened in the past anymore. He felt so relieved!
"That's really good news! It seems that Qiao Xi will be heartbroken. I really want to see it with my own eyes."
Lu Yingxue said something, but hesitated to speak.
Lu Bannong took a sip of champagne and looked at her and said, "Just tell me what you have to say."
