Alert! Miracle doctor released from prison

The treatment lasted for one hour.

At the end, Chen Huo looked exhausted.

Both refining elixirs and treating patients require a high degree of concentration and intense internal energy circulation. Even though Chen Huo has an extremely yang constitution, he is now inevitably somewhat fatigued.

Gong Jinghan, on the other hand, looked much more energetic than before.

"You brat, this pill is really good, and your treatment method is even more miraculous. I feel like I'm already more than half cured!" Gong Jinghan said with a face full of joy.

"Granny Gong, our young master is known as the Divine Physician Yama, and that's no exaggeration!" Yu Ji raised her chin and said with a smug look, as if Gong Jinghan was praising him.

"Alright, stop bringing up that title all the time."

Chen Huo smiled and then instructed Gong Jinghan, "The situation has improved a lot now, but we can't let our guard down. You still need to continue taking the herbal medicine every day."

"I know, I know."

Gong Jinghan chuckled and pulled Chen Huo down to sit on the sofa, saying with a grin, "Hurry up and rest. I'll beat you up again when you're fully rested. My hands are itching to do it."

She certainly didn't intend to actually beat Chen Huo.

Instead, he wanted to improve Chen Huo's strength by sparring with him and giving him pointers.

This was done in gratitude for the treatment and the elixir.

of course.

She genuinely wanted to help Chen Huo.

Just then.

The doorbell rang.

I saw two men outside the door through the video call.

One was a young man, and the other was a middle-aged man.

After reviewing the information about the Chen family, Yu Ji glanced at the video call and said, "This young man should be Chen Dongsheng, and the middle-aged man is clearly an attendant. They must have come to apologize."

Chen Huo originally wanted to go back to his room to rest for a while.

Upon seeing Chen Dongsheng arrive, he abandoned the idea.

Su Wanqiu's restaurant chain has been framed, and this person is the instigator. He must be taught a lesson. Moreover, Chen Huo should be questioned about how they handled this public relations crisis.

If the company cannot be saved, the Chen family will not be able to come up with 500 million.

Instead, compensation will be based directly on the company's valuation after its IPO.

If it really comes to that, Chen Huo will show no mercy.

"Let them in."

"Yes, young master."

Yu Ji responded, walked out of the villa, opened the door, and after confirming the identities of the two, she led them into the villa. Chen Huo finally met this young man named Chen Dongsheng.

Thin, fair-skinned, with a resemblance to Chen Yuanshan in his features.

It has become more feminine and less masculine.

It has a somewhat effeminate feel to it.

Thin lips, long eyes with upturned corners.

These kinds of people are generally difficult to get along with.

As for the follower behind him, he was an ordinary-looking middle-aged man with a restrained and panicked expression. He didn't know where to put his hands and stood behind Chen Dongsheng with his neck hunched over.

"Cousin..."

Chen Dongsheng, all smiles, was interrupted by Chen Huo before he could even speak: "Don't try to claim kinship with me. I'm asking you, how did you manage to orchestrate this media storm?"

Chen Dongsheng chuckled dryly upon hearing this, and bowed slightly, saying, "I've already invested nearly a million in online traffic to boost the event's popularity. I estimate it'll be trending tomorrow, and then I'll arrange a plot twist."

Actually, Chen Dongsheng's methods weren't particularly sophisticated.

Since the incident has already happened, why not amplify its impact and attract widespread public attention? Once it reaches its peak, arrange for the apprentice in the cold dish preparation area to admit that he threw the dead rat into the braising liquid.

Of course, words alone are not enough.

To this end, he prepared a series of evidence chains, such as the conflict between the apprentice and the cold dish chef, the conflict with the store's management, and video evidence of rats, etc.

The most shocking thing is that Chen Dongsheng arranged for a Chinese chain restaurant that was about to go bankrupt to create a boss who was jealous of Su Wanqiu out of thin air. It was this person who bribed the apprentice in the cold dish room to put rat carcasses in.

Once these things are made public, the "Fanghua" restaurant will become a victim, gaining public sympathy. The complete chain of evidence and logic will never arouse suspicion.

These methods are not particularly sophisticated.

But not just anyone can do it.

It requires a lot of money and irresistible power, both soft and hard; otherwise, why would anyone do it? The Chen family clearly has that power, and Chen Huo is quite satisfied.

"Okay, apologize now."

After changing the subject, Chen Huo specifically reminded her, "Apologize to Yu Ji and this old woman first. Your people offended them and you need their forgiveness before this matter is over. Otherwise, even if your father is Chen Yuanshan, he can't protect you."

In other words, Chen Huo also believed that Chen Dongsheng did not know that Su Wanqiu had joined the Goddess Pavilion, and that this incident was just a coincidence. Otherwise, Chen Dongsheng would not be standing here intact and talking to him.

"OK."

Chen Dongsheng chuckled dryly, his gaze falling on Gong Jinghan.

"this……"

He didn't know how to address him and paused for a moment.

Chen Huo was about to explain.

At that moment, a sudden change occurred.

The middle-aged man behind Chen Dongsheng suddenly moved!

He made no sound, not uttering a single word, and attacked silently with terrifying speed, appearing before Chen Huo like a ghost.

Chen Huo was already exhausted and not in good spirits. In addition, his attention was focused on introducing Gong Jinghan, so he was a beat slow to react and it was too late when he sensed the danger.

Suddenly, a dagger appeared in the middle-aged man's hand, and he slashed at Chen Huo's neck with lightning speed. Chen Huo felt an immense life-or-death crisis.

At this critical moment.

Suddenly, a wrinkled hand appeared in front of Chen Huo, grabbing the middle-aged man's wrist before he could react. The dagger stopped three inches from Chen Huo's neck, unable to move an inch.

"Are you blind? Can't you see I'm right here?"

Gong Jinghan sneered and exerted a little force. The middle-aged man's wrist trembled in pain, and the dagger fell to the ground. Before it hit the ground, Gong Jinghan caught it with his other hand.

The middle-aged man wanted to break free from his constraints, but found himself completely powerless.

He shouted in terror, "A fifth-level Emperor Realm expert? How could I not know someone of that level? Who are you?!"

As he spoke, he frantically channeled his inner energy, attempting to break free of the restraints.

Upon seeing this, Chen Dongsheng immediately retreated, pointing at the middle-aged man and shouting:

"Chen Huo, this guy isn't a member of the Chen family! He killed my follower and used my life to blackmail me into bringing him here! Kill him now, I have nothing to do with him!"

Chen Huo's gaze was cold, and he ignored him.

He was nothing more than an insignificant being, whose cultivation level didn't even reach the King Realm. Chen Huo's attention was currently focused on this middle-aged man. If he wasn't mistaken, this man's martial arts cultivation level should be at the fourth level of the Emperor Realm!

Moreover, he is one of the best among the fourth-tier students.

Such a powerful figure actually came to assassinate me?

Who is this person who has the ability to make a fourth-level Emperor Realm expert willingly become an assassin?
