After hanging up the phone, Chen Xiao glanced at Villa No. 8, its doors tightly shut not far away, and then drove away without hesitation.
He mused that since Gou Shunfang was clearly setting a trap for him, if he pretended to agree but didn't go through with it, Gou Shunfang, who had gone to all that trouble for nothing, would be the one anxious.
However, before he could even drive out of Tian'e Lake residential area, he suddenly received a call from an unknown number:
"Hello, is this Dr. Chen? I am Ye Qingxin, Gou Shunfang's niece. My Aunt Fang said you are a skilled physician, capable of curing all sorts of difficult and complicated illnesses. So, I'd like to ask for your help."
Fearing Chen Xiao would refuse, Ye Qingxin added politely after her initial words:
"I was originally planning to call you tomorrow and come to your door in person to seek medical help. But as soon as I got home from work, my condition suddenly relapsed. I had no choice but to disturb you."
Chen Xiao, possessing the mysterious and profound Wu Zi Jin Fang (Wordless Golden Prescription), easily diagnosed from Ye Qingxin's breathing that she was indeed seriously ill. He couldn't help but ask with some doubt:
"Miss Ye, are you suffering from what is commonly known as the 'Oriental Beauty Disease,' arteritis?"
Upon suddenly receiving Ye Qingxin's call for help, Chen Xiao had initially been very suspicious that she and Gou Shunfang had colluded beforehand to set a trap for him. However, after diagnosing Ye Qingxin's breathing, he suddenly felt that she was likely innocent.
"You... you... what did you say?"
Ye Qingxin on the other end of the line was utterly shocked. The illness she had contracted had only been diagnosed two minutes ago, and a friend from the provincial medical university's affiliated hospital had specifically called to inform her in advance. Otherwise, she would have had to wait until tomorrow to collect her test results at the hospital.
Precisely because she knew the severity of the "Oriental Beauty Disease" and had suddenly fallen ill, she had been compelled by some unseen force to contact "Dr. Chen," whom Gou Shunfang had introduced to her yesterday.
Amidst her shock, she disregarded why Chen Xiao called her "Miss Ye" and exclaimed in disbelief:
"Dr. Chen, how... how did you know I have the Oriental Beauty Disease? You might not believe me, but I only found out myself a few minutes ago."
Chen Xiao did not hide anything and said:
"Of course, I diagnosed it through your breathing."
"This..."
Ye Qingxin was even more stunned, her voice trembling with emotion:
"Dr. Chen, is it convenient for you to come to my house to see me now? I'm sorry, I..."
Before Ye Qingxin could finish speaking, Chen Xiao unhesitatingly turned his car around and headed straight for Villa No. 8:
"It doesn't matter if it's convenient or not. After all, you should be in a semi-paralyzed state right now, with the possibility of fainting at any moment!"
Life is at stake!
Time is life!
At this moment, Chen Xiao no longer cared about Gou Shunfang's intentions to use Ye Qingxin against him. He immediately parked his car downstairs at Villa No. 8, grabbed his keys, opened the door, and got out.
Villa No. 8 had a high-definition surveillance camera installed at its main entrance. Gou Shunfang was currently staring at the monitor.
Unexpectedly seeing Chen Xiao's Maserati parked at the entrance and then rushing inside, she became ecstatic. She quickly called Liu Zihao and said with a frenzied expression:
"Zihao, the guy named Chen has taken the bait. Get ready on your end. Whether you can capture Ye Qingxin and frame Chen depends on your skill from now on! If you succeed, Ye Jinhuan will be your mother-in-law. If you fail, we'll not only lose our wife and soldiers but might lose everything!"
