Since they were both in Estan, a country that none of them were truly familiar with, the only thing Xu Xiyan could do was call Helian Qingyu for help.
When Helian Qingyu got the call from Xu Xiyan, he was smoking in Gu Yici’s office. Even though he had no idea what had happened to Huo Yunshen, he decided to go and take a look.
“Hey!” Helian Qingyu turned to Gu Yici. “Follow me! There’s an emergency!”
“A house call? It will cost you a lot,” Gu Yici joked.
“Since when did I never pay you?” Helian Qingyu frowned and scolded.
“Okay, okay,” Gu Yici laughed. “Then why don’t you help us take care of the hospital’s expenses too? We’re going broke.”
Gu Yici dared to make the joke because his father was the director of the hospital.
“Don’t act like you’re poor in front of me!” Helian Qingyu bit back and walked out of the office.
Gu Yici laughed even harder as he reached for his medical bag and followed Helian Qingyu.
…
They arrived at Yunjing Manor in just a few minutes.
When Gu Yici saw the luxurious mansion, he asked, “Hey, since when did this place become the Yunjing Manor?”
“Shut up and follow me!” Helian Qingyu scolded and pressed the doorbell.
After making sure it was Helian Qingyu, Xu Xiyan opened the door for them.
When Gu Yici noticed a very pretty lady was waiting at the door for them, he was surprised.
“I never thought that you had it in you,” Gu Yici said. “Since when did you learn how to hide a mistress?”
Gu Yici really thought that the pretty lady was the General’s mistress, which would explain why Helian Qingyu was so anxious to get to the mansion.
“One more word and I’ll rip that tongue out from your mouth!” Helian QIngyu warned.
Upon hearing that, Gu Yici quickly covered his mouth with his hands.
“Jing Xi!” Helian Qingyu greeted as he noticed that Xu Xiyan was very anxious.
“You’re finally here!” Xu Xiyan quickly greeted back.
“This here is Gu Yici, he’s a doctor. Where’s Yunshen? What’s wrong with him?” Helian Qingyu asked.
“Follow me!”
Xu Xiyan guided them to the study room.
Helian Qingyu was shocked when he saw the study room was trashed. He looked for Huo Yunshen and found him all tied up in a corner.
“Brother! Are you all right?” Helian Qingyu asked as he rushed to Huo Yunshen’s side.
Yet Huo Yunshen did not reply to him.
“Yici! Come and take a look at him!” Helian Qingyu shouted.
Gu Yici finally realized who the house belonged to.
Even though this was the first time meeting Huo Yunshen, Gu Yici had already heard a lot about him from Helian Qingyu and briefly understood his relationship with Jing Xi.
Without any hesitation, Gu Yici kneeled beside Huo Yunshen to check on him. But when he tried to turn Huo Yunshen over, Huo Yunshen reached to and grab him by his neck.
“General…” Gu Yici coughed. “Help!”
