Not only did Second Master Situ want Tang Li’s help, Third Master and Fourth Master Situ also came to ask Tang Li for help.
Third Master Situ said, “Fourth Madam, aren’t you a fortune-teller? I want to ask you to read my fortune. Recently, I’ve been feeling that there’s a villain around me, and nothing goes smoothly.”
Fourth Master Situ continued, “My son is also sick. I want to ask Fourth Madam to treat him.”
Hearing that, Situ Huang was so angry that his face and neck turned red. He shouted at them, “Are you done? Tang Li and I agreed that she won’t take on any other business while treating my son.”
Situ Huang was happy that he made a deal with Tang Li in advance. He knew what his brothers were up to. They just did not want Tang Li to cure Situ Jin.
Just as the four of them were about to start arguing, Qi Yihan said unhappily, “Everyone, it’s getting late. My wife is just a doctor. She’s tired from working all day. If you want to argue, wait until we leave.”
With that, he wrapped his arm around Tang Li’s waist and held Linlin’s hand as he led them towards the car.
That cold aura exuding from him made people shudder.
At this moment, Tang Li added, “I did promise Situ Huang that I won’t take on any other business while I’m treating Situ Jin. If you want to do business with me, wait until I cure Situ Jin.”
“When will Fourth Madam be able to cure our nephew?” Actually, this was what the three of them were most concerned about.
They indeed did not want Tang Li to treat Situ Jin.
In the past, they thought that Situ Jin was just a short-lived sick man who would die very soon. However, now that Tang Li was here and they heard that she was about to cure his illness, the three masters panicked, so they often came to ask about the treatment progress.
Tonight, the three of them quarreled with their eldest brother and were kicked out.
However, the three of them did not leave. Instead, they stayed outside Situ Jin’s courtyard and waited for Tang Li.
As long as they bribed Tang Li with money, their short-lived nephew would definitely die.
Situ Huang knew what the three of them were thinking. He sneered, “when Tang Li can cure my son’s illness has nothing to do with the three of you. Let me tell you, you’d better put away those thoughts in your mind. Otherwise, I won’t treat you as a family.â€�
“First Brother, we’re just concerned about our nephew.”
“It’s not like I don’t know what you’re thinking. You don’t have to worry about my son. You should worry about your own family.”
“Brother, do you have to make our relationship so unpleasant?”
After Tang Li and the others drove out, Tang Li sighed. “I used to think that our family was terrible, but I didn’t expect the Situ family to be worse.”
“Yes,” Qi Yihan said. “Because of some reasons, the four brothers of the Situ family have been fighting among themselves, especially after Old Master Situ handed the company to Situ Jin before he died. In the beginning, no one took Situ Jin seriously because they felt that he wouldn’t live long. When Old Master Situ handed the company to Situ Jin, he was even assassinated several times.”
Tang Li was speechless. “He is really lucky to have survived thus far, given his health and family condition.”
“He has his ways to deal with them,” Qi Yihan commented.
If Situ Jin didn’t have any means, he wouldn’t have been able to manage the Situ family’s business so well.
Tang Li nodded.
At that moment, their car happened to approach the gate. Tang Li tilted her head to look at Qin Mingyue, who was still standing there, and suddenly said to Qi Yihan, “One of the reasons why Situ Jin can live until now is because he has the help of a benefactor.”
Qi Yihan also looked at Qin Mingyue and was a little surprised. “Is she the benefactor you’re talking about?”
“It’s their family, but the relationship between the two families has been cut off because of the death of one person. There will be a lot of grudges between them in the future.”
Qi Yihan knew that Tang Li must have figured something out, so he did not ask.
When their car was about to reach Qin Mingyue, she stopped them in the middle of the road.
The driver stopped the car and Tang Li said to Qi Yihan, “I’ll go down and talk to her.”
With that, she pushed open the car door and got out.
Qin Mingyue was a little surprised that Tang Li would get out of the car. When she walked over, Qin Mingyue quickly said, “Miss Tang, I want to talk to you.”
Tang Li nodded and gestured to her. “Let’s go. Let’s go to the side and talk.”
With that, she walked to the side.
Qin Mingyue quickly followed.
After the two of them walked to the side, Qin Mingyue took out a dragon-shaped jade pendant.
Looking at the jade, Tang Li was surprised to see that it was emitting a powerful spiritual Qi. “Are you the descendant of the Qin Emperor?”
Qin Mingyue nodded and said, “Master Tang, I want to use this jade as a reward. Please read my fortune.”
Tang Li did not take the jade from her hand. She only said, “Buddha said that suffering is not suffering, and joy is not joy. It’s just a temporary obsession. Some things are obvious. If you force it, you will only inflict pain on yourself. Why bother?”
Qin Mingyue held the jade in her hand and lowered her eyes. Her tone was filled with pain and hatred as she replied, “My sister didn’t do anything wrong. She just wanted to get close to him. Why should she pay her life for that?”
“The marriage between them was set in stone by our grandparents. This marriage was supposed to be between Situ Jin and me, but my sister fell in love with Situ Jin at first sight, so I gave this marriage to her. I didn’t expect that it turned out like this.”
Tang Li looked at Qin Mingyue, who was covered in black smoke, and asked, “Who did you sign the contract with?”
Qin Mingyue suddenly raised her head to look at her. A trace of surprise flashed across her eyes. “You’re indeed a master in this area.”
Tang Li looked into her eyes and asked, “What do you want me to read?”
With her eyes cast down, Qin Mingyue said, “Can I fulfill my sister’s wish?”
Tang Li looked at her for a long while before turning to leave. As she walked, she waved her hand and said, “I won’t be reading your fortune for the time being. Take care.”
With that, she walked to the car door and sat in the car that Qi Yihan had already opened for her. Then, the car drove away.
Qin Mingyue looked at the car driving away and tightened her grip on the jade pendant.
At this moment, a person came out of the guard room. That person quickly walked up to Qin Mingyue and said to her, “Miss Qin, First Master wants to see you.”
Qin Mingyue nodded and put away the jade pendant in her hand. She walked to the car, got in, and went straight into the Situ family.
