The old man was lying in a special ward. His body was filled with tubes and there were several instruments beside him. When the three masters saw this scene, they thought their father was about to die so they instantly started crying loudly.
First Master asked Qi Yihan with trembling lips, âFourth brother, tell me honestly. How much time does father have?â
Looking at the scene inside, Second Master and Third Master were in great pain both physically and mentally.
Only then did they realize that they did not wanna lose their father just like that.
The more they thought about it, the more sad they became. The three of them started crying and blaming Qi Yihan.
âArenât you very capable? Why has father become like this now?â
âAnd Tang Li, didnât she promise that fatherâs illness could be cured?â
âItâs all because you stopped us from seeing father that we didnât have a chance to take care of father and fulfill our responsibility as a son. Now are you happy to see us living the rest of our life in guilt?â
â¦
Qi Yihan looked at the three of them coldly as if he was looking at an idiot. He was not in the mood to tell them what actually was going on in the ward.
Tang Li, who came out of the conference room a while ago with the three doctors, looked at the four men standing there. After hearing the accusations the three masters threw at Qi Yihan, she walked over, saying, âWhy are you guys crying here? Father is fine now.â
The four of them looked at Tang Li at the same time.
They looked at Tang Li, who was wearing a doctorâs gown, in wide-eyed amazement.
One of them asked, âTang Li, why are you wearing a doctorâs gown?â
âWerenât you told that you arenât supposed to enter this room? Why are you wearing the same clothes as the other doctors?â
The corners of Tang Liâs lips curled up as she said, âIâm also one of the doctors who treat father. Of course I have to go in.â
After saying that, she walked toward the operating door.
The three masters were in disbelief at first and then became furious. They felt that Tang Li did not take their fatherâs life seriously and that she was probably the reason why their father suddenly became like this.
âTang Li, stop. Youâre not allowed to go in.â
First Master shouted at Tang Li and then looked at Qi Yihan. His eyes were red as he shouted at him, âFourth brother, are you blind? How can you just watch Tang Li mess around? She is killing our father!â
Second Master was so furious that his veins started to pop out. âThatâs right. I donât believe Tang Li knows anything about medicine? She is just messing around with our fatherâs life? I bet she is the cause of father lying there like that.â
Third Master said fiercely, âFourth brother, what exactly is going on? If you donât give us a reasonable explanation today, we wonât let you off.â
The three of them were so excited that they could not even care about the pain on their bodies. They walked toward Tang Li at the same time, wanting to pull her back and not let her in.
Qi Yihan stood between them as they walked towards Tang Li and said, âFather is in the midst of surgery. All of you, be quiet. Otherwise, leave the hospital.â
âOn what basis?â First Master shouted at him. âWeâre also Fatherâs sons. Heâs already in this state, so what right do you have to ask us to leave? I think you just want Father to die. Qi Yihan, donât make me use my right as your brother and the eldest son of the family.â
He raised his fist and threw it at Qi Yihanâs face.
Qi Yihan didnât move at all. When the fist was very close to his face, he caught it with his bare hands. His eyes were filled with strong hostility as he twisted his fist.
âAh⦠Qi Yihan, let go of me!â
The sound of bones dislocating from being twisted frightened Second Master and Third Master. The two people who were about to help First Master froze on the spot.
Only then did Qi Yihan let go of First Master and said in a low voice, âIâve said it before. Iâll do my best to cure our father. If you cause trouble again, donât blame me for being rude.â
âWhat do you mean by causing trouble?â While rubbing his fist, First Master glared at Qi Yihan, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
Qi Yihan snorted and said to Tang Li, âDonât worry. Go in.â
Tang Li nodded at him and walked toward the door.
The three masters were anxious and wanted to stop her, but Qi Yihan said, âLetâs talk.â
With that, he walked to the side.
At that moment, Tang Li was already in the special ward. The three of them looked at each other before following Qi Yihan.
When Tang Li and the three doctors came out after checking the old manâs medical analysis today, Qi Yihan was the only one waiting outside. She asked, âWhere are they?â
âThey went back.â
The two of them walked out together. Qi Yihan said, âTheyâll take turns coming over from now on.â
Tang Li nodded. She knew that although Qi Yihan was ruthless most of the time, he still couldnât really bring himself to stop his brothers from visiting their father.
âIâll stay in the hospital and be with Father just to prevent them from causing you trouble.â
âIâm not afraid of them.â Tang Li mumbled but did not say anything else.
â¦
On the other hand, after the three masters returned from the hospital, they didnât return to their own courtyards. Instead, they went straight to First Masterâs study.
The three of them stayed in the study and chatted for a long time before coming out.
The next day, news leaked out that Fourth Master of the Qi family put his fatherâs life at danger by letting Tang Li treat him.
In an instant, Tang Li became famous in the upper-class circle again.
Everyone was talking and criticizing her.
âIsnât Tang Li a foreign language student? Is she planning to use languages to treat her father-in-law?â
âI think sheâs either crazy or Fourth Master is crazy. Without his permission, Tang Li wouldnât dare to treat the old man.â
âI canât believe such a rigorous person as Fourth Master would make such a stupid mistake. I bet Tang Li used some tricks to make him believe that she can cure illnesses.â
âThat must be it. I heard something about Tang Li before. Itâs said that she has been acting weirdly recently and she even claimed that she can read fortunes for people.â
âNo way. She must be suffering from some kind of brain damage. Some time ago, she dumped her gigolo and now she is treating her father-in-law. Is her next target Fourth Master?â
âPfft⦠She will die even more miserably if she does that.â
âThatâs hard to say, havenât you heard of a witch doctor in the Southern Border who can bring dead people back to life?â
âI heard even if dead people are brought back to life, they are basically a container without internal organs. Itâs like they are soulless puppets that will do whatever the witcher tells them to do.â
âWow⦠That sounds scary. Is that what Tang Li is planning to do? To turn his father-in-law into a puppet?â
âAnd Fourth Master as well. I guess she is ultimately aiming at the inheritance. If she can control her father-in-law, the inheritance will all be hers.â
âWill the other three masters of the Qi family allow her to do that?â
âThatâs why I think the Qi family is in for a good show.â
All kinds of ridiculous speculations that were going on made the members of the Qi family anxious.. They came together and demanded to see the old man.
