Chapter 73: Chapter 73 Who Are You
The contrast between the security guard’s earlier and later behavior was so great that it left Liu Zheng and Liu Suqiu somewhat at a loss for words.
However,
at this time Liu Zheng didn’t have any time to quibble with him—today’s mission was to rescue someone, and saving lives was the top priority.
Liu Zheng shot the security guard a glance, then quickly led Liu Suqiu toward the villa.
Seeing the two of them enter the villa, the security guard wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
Liu Zheng didn’t make an issue of it, and he couldn’t help but silently rejoice.
Feeling greatly relieved, he took a deep breath, thinking to himself that today he must have encountered good people.
As these thoughts crossed his mind, he reached for his walkie-talkie, intending to close the gate when he caught sight of the electric tricycle that Liu Zheng and the others had used as their vehicle.
Today, he had almost gotten into trouble because of this electric tricycle.
Who could have thought that such capable people wouldn’t drive a car, but instead preferred to ride an electric tricycle with a woman?
Do all esteemed figures nowadays have their unique quirks?
While he was musing, another car approached the gate.
It was a black Audi that drove straight up to the gate.
The car window rolled down, and the driver poked his head out.
The security guard felt a startle, knowing the newcomer was no ordinary person, so he quickly leaned forward to inquire about the visitor’s identity.
"We are from the Liu Family of Huai’an City, here to treat Mr. Tang’s illness today,"
Hearing that the other party was from the Liu Family, the security guard’s complexion changed instantly.
If they were from the Liu Family, who then were the two people who had just entered?
Only,
the security guard was deep in his daze when the impatient driver honked the car’s horn twice, jolting the distracted guard back to reality.
After the shock, the security guard quickly opened the gate, allowing the people from the Liu Family inside.
However, he regretted having let Liu Zheng in earlier.
What he wanted more than anything now was to drag Liu Zheng back out as soon as possible.
But after another thought, the security guard dismissed this idea.
He had to remember his place.
If he barged in rashly, he would surely escalate the situation.
Moreover, the man had said his surname was Liu. If it turned out he wasn’t associated with the people who had entered before, then he could just claim he was an impersonator.
After entering the villa, just as Liu Zheng and Su Qiu were walking inside, they suddenly heard a harsh honking from the courtyard behind them, and Liu Zheng couldn’t help but frown.
"What a lack of manners, don’t they know there are sick people inside?"
As he grumbled, a woman who looked like a domestic helper approached, gesturing for them to follow her.
After donning shoe covers, she led the two towards the inside of the villa.
They ascended the stairs, and soon all three were standing in front of a second-floor room.
Barely having taken their positions, they heard a bout of coughing coming from inside the room.
Standing outside the door and looking into the room, Liu Zheng frowned again.
Because the room was crowded with many people, packed so densely it was nearly stuffed full.
The domestic helper, standing outside the room, called into the room, "Young Master, the doctor has arrived."
Hearing her cry, the crowd inside the room fell silent for a moment, then disturbances resumed.
From among the crowd, a tall young man in a white suit made his way out.
He initially had a solemn expression on his face, but when he turned around to greet the doctor, there was a hint of a smile.
Only.
When he saw Liu Zheng and Liu Suqiu, his expression grew even more solemn.
Stepping forward, he stared at the two and asked, "Who are you?"
Confused by the question, Liu Zheng too couldn’t help but feel bewildered.
The security guard had let him in after hearing his name just a moment ago.
Now, the man before him was questioning him again.
Could it be that Qin Wanru hadn’t mentioned him to the family?
That shouldn’t be the case!
If the security guard was able to let him in, then Qin Wanru must have given the notice!
But now he’s asking who I am again, what’s going on?
Liu Zheng thought about this and was about to state his identity directly.
But before he could speak, a flurry of hurried footsteps sounded from behind him.
The middle-aged man opposite, with a flash in his eyes, looked past Liu Zheng towards the people approaching him from behind, and immediately his face lit up with joy.
"Elder Liu, you have finally arrived," he said.
Startled, Liu Zheng was somewhat astonished and turned to look, only to see a group of people walking towards him.
Leading them was an old man with a tall stature and a head of white hair.
The elder moved with strength and vigor, heading in their direction.
Walking beside the old man was a tall and coldly beautiful young girl.
After the two approached, the elder nodded slightly, his voice clear and resonant, "Let’s not delay for idle chit-chat, we should first check how Mr. Tang’s illness is."
With that, he walked past Liu Zheng and headed toward the direction of the sickroom.
The middle-aged man nodded, stepping aside to let him pass.
It wasn’t until the elder had passed by him that he said to the nanny, "Hurry, escort these two out."
Well, this was great; originally here to treat the patient,
and now, without even having seen the patient, they were already being sent away.
Liu Zheng remained indifferent, saying nothing, but Liu Suqiu beside him couldn’t hold back.
Her eyes flashing, she immediately began shouting loudly, "What’s the meaning of this? You called us here to treat a patient, and now, even without having seen the patient, you’re shooing us out, isn’t that a bit too unreasonable?"
She was already quite fiery, and now, seeing Liu Zheng seemingly bullied, she became even more agitated.
Only.
Upon hearing her words, the old man who was about to enter the room suddenly turned his head back, his face looking extremely displeased.
He glared at the middle-aged man and said, "It seems that the Tang Family still doesn’t trust the Liu Family’s medical skills. It looks like they have prepared a backup plan. If that’s the case, then there is no need for me to stay any longer, I take my leave."
Seeing that the elder was serious about leaving, the middle-aged man became anxious.
"No, no, Elder Liu, please wait. Both I and the Tang Family have the utmost respect for traditional Chinese medicine and the Liu Family of Huai’an."
"The invitation was only for you, Elder Liu, to treat the illness. As for who these two are and how they got in, I have no idea."
Hearing the exchange between the two men, Liu Zheng’s eyes suddenly widened.
