Alert! Miracle doctor released from prison
Chapter 222 Why am I so unlucky?
Chen Huo was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.
This was the first time he had been threatened not to treat someone.
Simply outrageous.
"What would happen if it were treated?"
"die!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Huo chuckled: "Over the years, countless people have wanted me dead, but I'm still alive and well, aren't I? Threats over the phone won't work on me. Go ahead and use whatever you've got the ability."
A cold snort came from the other end of the phone: "You really are as arrogant as the rumors say. Do you really think you're so great? If Yuan Gang hadn't arrived in time, you'd be dead already!"
"You're from the Luo family, aren't you?"
"Who I am is not important. What's important is that if you don't want to die, don't interfere in Luo Yunxi's affairs, or I guarantee you'll die young!"
"You should worry more about yourself."
Chen Huo smiled coldly, hung up the phone, and didn't take the matter to heart.
If he were to be so easily frightened by a single phone call that he dared not do what he wanted, then he would be no longer the young master of the Goddess Pavilion, and his title of "Divine Doctor of the King of Hell" would become a joke.
"What's wrong, young master?"
"Someone called to threaten me."
Chen Huo calmly recounted the contents of the phone call.
Yu Ji frowned slightly after hearing this, and said in a deep voice:
"It seems to be an internal power struggle within the Luo family. What is so special about Luo Yunxi that the Luo family would resort to such a foolish method as threatening you? Why not just kill Luo Yunxi directly?"
Chen Huo analyzed:
"It's very simple. Someone definitely wants to kill Luo Yunxi. This person has a lot of influence in the Luo family and a lot of say. They might even send people to protect Luo Yunxi. It's hard for the person who wants to kill him to do it."
"I think the person protecting Luo Yunxi is probably the head of the Luo family, and the person who wants to kill Luo Yunxi is probably his legal wife! And this Luo Yunxi is definitely not simple either; he must be a young man with great potential."
"None of this concerns us; I'm only concerned with treating patients."
Chen Huo shook his head and said.
Treating Luo Yunxi would mean getting involved in the internal power struggle within the Luo family, which could very well lead to retaliation. However, as a renowned doctor, he had no reason to refuse his patients.
Moreover.
A man should keep his word.
Having promised Gu Yingxue, how could I go back on my word?
……
The next morning.
Chen Huo then received a call from Liu Guocheng, who said that he had obtained most of the medicinal herbs he needed, but there were three herbs for which he could not find the year that met Chen Huo's requirements.
We'll have to wait.
Chen Huo was quite satisfied with the result.
The three medicinal herbs that Liu Guocheng mentioned are indeed quite difficult to obtain.
"Okay, how much? I'll transfer the money to you."
"Mr. Chen, it's my honor to do something for you. How could I dare accept your money? Consider it a token of my respect! Please wait a couple more days for the remaining medicinal herbs; I'm trying to find some for you!"
Liu Guocheng said ingratiatingly.
Gu Yingxue gave Qin Sihai the Crimson Blood Dragon Heart Lotus without paying a penny, and Qin Sihai, in accordance with the contract, took his service fee and gave him the rest.
In other words, they made a fortune because of Chen Huo.
He felt uneasy even holding that money.
How could they possibly dare to ask for more money from Chen Huo?
"I, Chen Huo, always have principles. I won't shortchange you. We'll settle the bill once you've got the rest of the herbs," Chen Huo said calmly, then hung up the phone and stopped arguing.
On the other end of the phone.
Looking at the phone that had just been hung up, Liu Guocheng sighed, "This Chen Huoren is really righteous, unlike that Wu Shuo from the Wu family, he's a real beast, I almost fell into his hands."
He had been living in constant fear, afraid of displeasing Chen Huo and bringing about his own death. But Chen Huo not only showed no sign of taking offense, but also did not intend to take the medicinal herbs for free.
Selling Crimson Blood Dragon Heart Lotus at a high price was actually a normal business practice. Later, he was forced by Wu Shuo to make fake phone calls to Chen Huo to deceive him. In the end, he was also a victim.
But he was certain that if Wu Shuo had encountered the same thing, he would have lost his head long ago. Fortunately, he encountered Chen Huo, and even Chen Huo's woman, Yu Ji, rescued him as well when she rescued Su Wanqiu.
Where can you find such a good person?
"You're Liu Guocheng?"
Just as he was lost in thought, a slightly hoarse voice suddenly rang out from the previously empty office, startling him so much that he trembled all over.
"who!?"
Liu Guocheng suddenly turned around and looked in the direction from which the sound came.
A middle-aged man dressed in a black Tang suit had somehow taken up a seat on the sofa to the side, crossed his legs, and was looking at him indifferently.
He clearly remembered that no one was in the office when he made the call.
When did this man arrive?
Having been through the rough and tumble of the underworld, Liu Guocheng felt a sudden chill in his heart, a very bad premonition.
"Who I am is not important. What is important is that I can take your life and the life of your son who is studying abroad at any time," the middle-aged man said calmly.
As he spoke, he picked up the brass ornament from the small square table next to the sofa.
"There are some things that require your cooperation. I'm sure you won't refuse, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged man clenched his fist.
The pure brass ornament was molded into a lump like mud by him.
Upon seeing this, Liu Guocheng's expression changed slightly, as if he had eaten a dead rat and felt extremely uncomfortable.
Another martial arts master.
Why am I so sought after?
He wasn't stupid. After a little thought, he guessed that this matter was most likely related to Chen Huo. He couldn't help but feel bitter inside. Chen Huo had forgiven him last time. If he tricked Chen Huo again this time, would Chen Huo forgive him again?
There's a high chance they'll be eliminated.
Because he was thinking about these things, the middle-aged man assumed he was unwilling, gave a cold snort, and said with a stern face:
"What? Do I need to know your son's name, age, ID number, and which school and major he's studying in the US?"
"Why am I so unlucky!"
Liu Guocheng sighed inwardly, his heart filled with helplessness. He forced a smile and bowed slightly, saying, "Sir, what do you need me to do?"
no way.
This kind of expert, who could appear silently in his office and mold brass ornaments like clay, was someone he couldn't afford to offend. Most importantly, he didn't want anything to happen to his son.
Therefore, compromise is the only option.
But at the same time, he didn't want to offend Chen Huo.
He outwardly compromised, but in reality, he had already begun to think of countermeasures.
The middle-aged man, unaware of his thoughts, nodded in satisfaction upon seeing his cooperation.
"Very well, I know Chen Huo is having you purchase medicinal herbs. Show me the list."
"Okay, the list is on my phone, please take a look."
Liu Guocheng, his face full of flattery, held the phone respectfully with both hands.
The middle-aged man took the phone.
After looking at the list carefully for a while, he frowned.
"Are you sure this is the list of medicinal herbs Chen Huo gave you?"
