Chu Yi said, “Didn’t you hear what she said? With my health, it will take half a year of treatment and another two years of convalescence before I can recover. It’s almost impossible to keep Mo Beihan in the dark for so long. Gu Qingyao is his wife and is often with him. He will certainly find out.

“Then Mo Beihan will certainly threaten me, or even… kill me!”

The subordinate was taken aback. He thought for a while and realized that this was possible.

But it might not definitely happen?

“But Sir, Miss Gu is a very talented doctor. She saves so many patients that she can’t possibly tell Mo Beihan about all of them, right? Mo Beihan doesn’t know anything about medicine.”

Chu Yi paused.

The subordinate continued, “Sir, because of this matter, I’ve investigated all the famous doctors in the capital again, starting with those who are connected with Gu Qingyao – one of them is Jiang Yiru, and the other is Old Madam Qiao.

“Both of them are definitely very famous in the area of Chinese medicine, but in recent years, they seldom accept cases because of their old age. They have transferred most of their patients to Gu Qingyao. But I’ve discovered that although both Jiang Yiru and Old Madam Qiao are indeed getting on in years, they are still in good health. Under these circumstances, these talented doctors might still take on patients.

“They’ve probably transferred all their patients to Gu Qingyao to allow her to build her connections and slowly consolidate her position. These old people are slowly grooming Gu Qingyao while they are alive. When they pass away, Gu Qingyao’s position will be secure.

“Under these circumstances, Gu Qingyao has taken on many cases, and most of them are among the upper class. Sir, you have never revealed your status, so, to Gu Qingyao, you’re probably just an ordinary patient, and it might not arouse Mo Beihan’s suspicion.”

Chu Yi did not say anything. He also hoped that it was true, but he was…

Too wary of Mo Beihan!

The subordinate continued, “Besides, there is an even more important point.”

“What is it?”

“Sir, right now, you are worried that Mo Beihan will find out about this. But have you considered what you will do if Gu Qingyao can really cure you and Mo Beihan finds out along the way?”

Chu Yi was taken aback. This… he had not had time to think about it.

The subordinate said, “Sir, Mo Beihan will certainly put a stop to it or even try to kill you. But… are you really willing to let him call the shots? If Gu Qingyao can really cure you, you definitely won’t give up so easily, will you?”

“Naturally!” Chu Yi said firmly.

He really wanted to recover. If Gu Qingyao could really cure him, he would find every possible way to get Gu Qingyao to treat him.

The subordinate said, “In that case, at this moment, Sir should carefully think about how we should respond once Mo Beihan finds out.

“Actually, there doesn’t seem to be any huge grudge between you and Mo Beihan. One might say that you hate him, but to Mo Beihan, you’re not an enemy that he must absolutely kill. Over the years, you have not caused him any mortal harm. In fact, it was him who hurt you too badly and caused you to be ill for so many years. Logically, if you negotiate with him and give him some benefits, he might not insist on killing you.”

Chu Yi was stunned!

Was that possible?

His hatred of Mo Beihan was already a habit. He felt that he and Mo Beihan were implacable enemies. He really had not thought about this before.
