Alert! Miracle doctor released from prison

Liu Guocheng didn't dare to delay and immediately took out his phone and dialed the number.

"Hey, Lao Qin."

"Prepare the Crimson Blood Dragon Heart Lotus I sent to you. I'll come pick it up right away. The customs fee and breach of contract fee will be handled according to the contract. You won't be shortchanged a single penny."

Liu Guocheng said generously.

He has never been so generous with money as he is today.

Now he just wants to get the Crimson Blood Dragon Heart Lotus as soon as possible and hand it over to Chen Huo in order to gain Chen Huo's forgiveness. Then he can sell his property and move to another place to live, so as to avoid being purged later.

However, his expression changed drastically the next moment.

"What did you say?"

"Are you kidding me?"

"Okay! I understand!"

Liu Guocheng hung up the phone, his expression turning very serious.

Chen Huo knew that things had taken a turn for the worse, and his expression darkened slightly.

Yu Ji's face darkened, and she said coldly, "What trick are you trying to pull now? Do you want to die?"

Liu Guocheng was startled: "Good heavens, how could I dare to play tricks on you? Qin Sihai told me that someone came to our door, saying they forcibly bought the Crimson Blood Dragon Heart Lotus. Two of his men were crippled because of it, and he himself got a beating!"

Chen Huo frowned slightly upon hearing this: "Who?"

"How would I know? Qin Sihai just said it was a woman, and he didn't know anything else. He said the woman was right next to him. I reckon even if he knew, he wouldn't dare to say anything."

"A woman?"

Yu Ji asked with some surprise.

Chen Huo asked, "You mean, the woman was right next to Qin Sihai when he was on the phone?"

"That's right, judging from his tone, I reckon it was that woman who made him say that. Mr. Chen, Ms. Yu, this really has nothing to do with me!" Liu Guocheng nodded and said, eager to distance himself from the matter.

"Okay, come with me to see Qin Sihai."

Chen Huo said calmly.

He didn't think Liu Guocheng was lying. So it was that woman who had forcibly bought the Crimson Blood Dragon Heart Lotus, deliberately waiting for him to come over. He would find out who she was and what she wanted when he got there.

Upon hearing this, Yu Ji shook her head and said, "Young Master, I think you'd better not rush off. It might just be another trap set for you. Let's send someone to investigate first."

"No."

Chen Huo said calmly, "Since the other party dares to compete with me for this Crimson Blood Dragon Heart Lotus, their strength must be considerable. The people from the Goddess Pavilion probably won't be able to get anything out of them in a short time. Besides, even if it's a trap, so what? I'm not unprepared."

Yu Ji knew that Chen Huo was always very opinionated and that what he said made sense, so she nodded: "Alright, I'll go with you and see who's going against us."

"Can I not go?" Liu Guocheng asked cautiously.

He was genuinely scared and didn't want to get involved.

They were all people he couldn't afford to offend.

Upon hearing this, Yu Ji's face darkened.

"Walk!"

It wasn't that she was making things difficult for Liu Guocheng, but rather that the Crimson Blood Dragon Heart Lotus originally belonged to him. Without him, the owner, present, the transaction couldn't be completed, and she couldn't very well just forcibly take it.

"All right."

Liu Guocheng shrank back and had no choice but to go with Chen Huo.

The three of them soon arrived at the Sihai Auction House.

Qin Sihai's secretary was already waiting downstairs. Upon seeing Chen Huo and the other two, he hurried forward, bowed slightly, and said respectfully:

"Mr. Chen, Ms. Yu Ji, President Qin is waiting for you in his office upstairs. Please come with me."

He completely ignored Liu Guocheng.

Normally, a qualified secretary shouldn't act like this. Chen Huo saw tension in his eyes, clearly indicating that he was under a lot of pressure, which led to his rudeness.

This pressure certainly doesn't come from Qin Sihai.

It was that mysterious woman.

"Who is the woman with your boss? Do you know her?" Yu Ji asked with a slight frown. Liu Guocheng didn't dare to speak, but his eyes were fixed on his secretary.

"I don't know Lady Yu Ji."

"Alright, no need to ask him anymore. What could he possibly know? Even if he did, he probably wouldn't dare to say," Chen Huo said calmly, stopping Yu Ji from continuing her interrogation.

"Yes, young master."

Yu Ji nodded and, led by her secretary, arrived at Qin Sihai's office on the top floor. She bowed and opened the door, whereupon Chen Huo saw a familiar woman sitting inside.

"Why is it you?"

Chen Huo frowned slightly.

In the office, a young woman wearing a leather jacket and with a neat ponytail sat in the boss's chair, a faint smile on her lips, and slowly stood up.

This woman was none other than Gu Yingxue.

Back in the capital, this woman was ordered by Chen Yuanshan to keep an eye on him and even eavesdrop on his phone calls. Chen Huo didn't have a very good impression of her at first.

Later, when he and Yu Ji drove into the Li family's house, this woman came to their rescue again, which changed Chen Huo's impression of her quite a bit. He never expected her to cause such a scene now.

"Hello Chen Huo, we meet again."

Yu Ji recognized Gu Yingxue, and said with a somewhat gloomy expression, "What? You want to snatch the Crimson Blood Dragon Heart Lotus from my young master?"

If Gu Yingxue were skilled in medicine, then it would be understandable for her to snatch the Crimson Blood Dragon Heart Lotus. However, as far as she knew, Gu Yingxue knew nothing about medicine, which made her suspicious of her motives.

At this moment, Qin Sihai stood with his arms crossed to the side of the desk, looking helpless, like a child who had done something wrong. He gave the secretary at the door a wink.

The secretary closed the door.

Gu Yingxue walked out from behind her desk and first glanced at Yu Ji.

"Isn't it unnecessary for you to be so hostile towards me?"

After speaking, he looked at Chen Huo.

"Dr. Chen, I've come here specifically for you."

Chen Huo didn't detect any hostility in Gu Yingxue's tone, so his tone softened considerably: "You've come for me? If you're still trying to persuade me to join the Chen family, then don't waste your breath."

Gu Yingxue chuckled upon hearing this: "Now that you've fallen out with the Wu family, that old fox Chen Yuanshan only wants to protect himself; how could he dare let you acknowledge your ancestors?"

"So what's the point of all this?"

Gu Yingxue smiled slightly and looked at Qin Sihai.

"What are you all standing there for? Bring out the Crimson Blood Dragon Heart Lotus and hand it over to Doctor Chen!"

"Okay, right away, right away!"

Qin Sihai nodded repeatedly, jogged to the coffee table in the office, picked up a wooden box, and then walked towards Chen Huo with a beaming smile, bowing as he said:

"Mr. Chen, your Crimson Blood Dragon Heart Lotus."

Chen Huo was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.

My Crimson Blood Dragon Heart Lotus?

He was a little confused about what Gu Yingxue meant.

But if something is in front of you, you should always open it and take a look.

Just as he was about to make a move, Yu Ji beat him to it.

"Young Master, let me do it."

Gu Yingxue chuckled upon hearing this: "Ms. Yu Ji, you're being too cautious. I've said it before, there's no need to be so hostile towards me. I won't harm you."

Upon hearing this, Yu Ji snorted and ignored it, then went forward to investigate herself.

Who knows what's inside the box?

How could she possibly let Chen Huo do something that might be dangerous?
