The next morning, as soon as Tang Li woke up, she received a call from her Second Uncle.

Second Uncle’s voice was especially amiable. “Tang Li, I already know what you said to your First Uncle yesterday. When do you have time? Come back for a chat.”

Tang Li looked at herself in the mirror and said, “I’ve already moved to the hospital to take care of Yihan’s father. I don’t think I’ll have time anytime soon.”

Upon hearing this, Second Uncle agreed. “You can spend time with him. He likes you a lot. Take good care of him so when he passes away, he will definitely leave you something.”

At this point, he sighed and said earnestly, “Tang Li, I had a discussion with your First Uncle last night and felt that I have to tell you something.”

Tang Li said while combing her hair, “Second Uncle, you can just tell me.”

Second Uncle said, “You know that after your grandfather passed away, our family has been on a decline. In the past two years, we’ve been making losses from investments. If not for Qi Yihan’s help, our family would have suffered even more.”

Tang Li stopped combing her hair and said directly, “Second Uncle, you can get to the point.”

The other party was probably not used to the tone she spoke with. After a moment of silence, he said, “Recently, we’re running out of funds. Can we use your and your father’s money for the time being?”

Tang Li was a little surprised. She thought that the Host and her father’s money was already incorporated into the Tang family a long time ago, but it turned out that the Tang family had no access to the money.

Tang Li felt she was not supposed to spend the money as it belonged to the Host and that giving it to her family was actually not a bad thing, so she said, “Sure.”

Second Uncle heaved a sigh of relief and said again, “Take good care of Yihan’s father in the hospital. Don’t worry about anything else. Also, you better ask that guy, who goes by Bai, to keep a low profile. Otherwise, he might be your stumbling block.”

Tang Li had already forgotten about Bai Qingyang. Hearing that, she asked, “What did Bai Qingyang do?”

“You don’t know?” Second Uncle was surprised. “I heard from Xiaolin just now that Bai Qingyang posted on Weibo last night. His tone was very arrogant. He said that he received an offer to be the male lead of a hit movie. The role was originally given to a Best Actor.”

Second Uncle thought that if not for Tang Li’s help, how could a newcomer who had only been in the entertainment industry for half a year get the male lead role of a hit movie?

Tang Li definitely did not know. “I’ve already cut off all ties with him, and I’ve lost contact with him. How could I know about this?”

At this point, she seemed to have guessed something. She added, “It must be the work of the other members of the Qi family.”

Second Master was taken aback and immediately reminded, “Looks like the internal strife between the Qi brothers has started. Be careful and don’t get involved. It’s best if you stay by their father’s side and talk to him. If Qi Yihan starts to blame you, push all the blame away.”

Tang Li nodded. The two of them exchanged a few more words before hanging up.

When Tang Li went downstairs, she happened to see Butler Zhang walk in from the main door after putting away his phone.

When Butler Zhang saw Tang Li, he quickly stopped and asked, “Madam, breakfast is ready. Do you want to eat now or later?”

“I’m going for a walk.”

She’d only found one client last night, so she wanted to see if she could find more clients.

After saying that, Tang Li walked out of the door. To her surprise, Butler Zhang followed behind her.

Butler Zhang was instructed by Butler Yang to follow and keep a close watch on Tang Li when she was not in the room with Yihan’s father.

After Tang Li looked at him, he quickly said with a serious face, “I heard that a very powerful person has come to the hospital. His identity is a little special. The subordinates that he brought are all very fierce. If we accidentally offend them, they might shoot us.”

Tang Li raised her eyebrows. “That sounds a little scary.”

“Yes, that’s why I’m accompanying Madam. That way, I can tell Madam where we’re not supposed to go.”

Tang Li fell silent for two seconds before looking at Butler Zhang.

When Butler Zhang was feeling tense, she asked, “Butler Zhang seems to be very familiar with the patients in the hospital.”

Butler Zhang said humbly, “I asked around yesterday. After all, all the people living here are big shots. It’s not a bad thing to know more.”

Tang Li nodded. “You’re right. Then tell me, what kind of big shots are staying in this hospital?”

“Well… I actually didn’t manage to find out much.” The identities of many important figures were so confidential that he couldn’t find out anything about them.

“Then tell me what you found out.”

“Yes.”

Tang Li listened to Butler Zhang as she walked. At the same time, she was quietly sensing for any spiritual energy fluctuations nearby.

After they walked for quite a while, a man suddenly came out from the corner.

The man’s aura was especially strong, giving people a feeling that he came with ill intentions.

Butler Zhang subconsciously whispered to Tang Li, “Madam, let’s go back. This place is very close to the patient I just told you about, and the man in front of us might be related to that patient.”

Tang Li looked at the man who was striding toward them. She narrowed her eyes while asking Butler Zhang, “Does this man eat people?”

Butler Zhang, “Eating is too strong a word…”

However, when the man stopped in front of them, Butler Zhang freaked out.

What was this person trying to do?

Why did he stop in front of us?

Butler Zhang subconsciously stepped forward to shield Tang Li and asked the man, “Sir, how may I help you?”

The man did not even look at him. Instead, he looked directly at Tang Li. “Miss Tang.”

Yesterday, Fu Junye saw Tang Li’s face. He wanted his men to look for her last night, but his men said that they had not seen such a person at all. This morning, he came out to try his luck, and he really did run into her.

Butler Zhang was dumbfounded. Did Madam know this man?

What was their relationship then?

It couldn’t be that Madam cheated on Master after only a day at the hospital, right?

Or was this person that pretty boy?

The more Butler Zhang thought about it, the more stunned he became. He heard about Tang Li’s affairs, but he did not expect the pretty boy to come to the hospital to look for her.

What should I do?

Butler Zhang’s mind was buzzing.

At that moment, Tang Li glanced at Butler Zhang, who looked obviously confused. She nodded at Fu Junye calmly and asked, “Why are you looking for me?”

Fu Junye stared at Tang Li and asked seriously, “Miss Tang, can you really read fortunes?”

“Yes.”

Butler, “What?”

Fu Junye asked, “Then… Miss Tang, can you tell me if someone is still alive?”

Actually, Tang Li did not really want to read fortunes for him right now, because she did not bring fortune-telling tools with her. She felt like without fancy tools, she would not look professional.

However, there was no reason for her to reject some easy cash. She asked, “Whose fortune do you want me to read?”

“My sister.”

“Name.”

“Fu Qingya.”

“That will be five hundred thousand.”

“Okay.”

“Do you have anything she once used?”

“Yes.”

Fu Junye took out a doll that was slightly bigger than his palm from his pocket.
