When Tang Li was making medicine, she liked to check her phone.
At this moment, a group chat request suddenly came in.
Tang Li did not like to join these groups. She was about to ignore them when a call came.
It was a call from Minister Fang.
Minister Fang said to her on the phone, âMaster Tang, thereâs a group invitation from the Imperial Capitalâs Mystic World. Please join them. These people will join our plan with you.â
Tang Li nodded and joined the group.
As soon as she joined, she saw countless warm welcomes.
Minister Fang added, âThis plan is quite important. Weâre worried that you wonât be able to handle it alone. These masters are very famous in the circle and they can definitely help in an emergency.â
Tang Li, âOkay.â
After hanging up, Tang Li saw many people in the group tagging her.
Xuan He, âMaster Tang, are you checking the messages? If you see them, please reply. When are we going to meet? Letâs sit down and have a cup of tea to discuss the mission.â
Xu Guanhai, âMaster Tang, we didnât see you when we went to the Liu Village in the Changbai Mountain last time.â
Yu Zhitang, âWe have a lot of time. We can arrange everything according to your schedule.â
At this point, Tang Li thought for a moment and replied, âI have time the morning after tomorrow.â
As soon as she answered, messages like âSureâ and âNo problemâ popped up.
After chatting with these people for a while, Tang Li put down her phone and went to add herbs.
At this moment, a person suddenly came over from the door. This person was one of the people Situ Jin sent to help her.
The person said to her, âMiss Tang, Young Master wants you to go over.â
Tang Li looked at the person standing by the door who was avoiding Tang Liâs gaze. She knew that there was definitely something wrong with this person because he was surrounded by black smoke. Tang Li didnât expose him and instead asked, âWhy is he looking for me?â
âWell⦠I donât know either.â Zhang Si was nervous. He was threatened by Miss. If he didnât call Miss Tang out, Miss would tell Young Master what he had done previously. Although Young Master looked sick and was easy to talk to, if he really got angry, he would kill people. Zhang Si didnât want to die.
Tang Li nodded and said, âIâll go immediately.â
Zhang Si heaved a sigh of relief and left.
Tang Li glanced at the medicine on the stove and used a talisman to cover this room before walking out.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Situ Jin was not in the hall. Zhang Si, who was standing by the door, told her, âMiss Tang, Young Master is outside.â
Tang Li nodded and walked out.
After walking out of Situ Jinâs courtyard, Situ Yueqin was waiting outside.
Situ Yueqin was waiting anxiously. She came to look for Tang Li because she was afraid that her brother would come back before Tang Li came out.
When she saw Tang Li, she heaved a sigh of relief and quickly called out to her, âMiss Tang, what a coincidence.â
Tang Li stopped and looked at her. âTell me, why did you get your brotherâs man to ask me to come out?â
âYou⦠you know!â Situ Yueqi looked around. After not seeing Situ Jin, she heaved a sigh of relief and said, âMiss Tang, I want to beg you for something.â
âBegging?â Tang Liâs lips curled into a faint smile. âI donât accept begging here. If you canât afford me, I wonât bother to listen.â
Situ Yueqin frowned. Actually, she did not like Tang Li at all. In the past, she did not like Tang Li because she felt that Tang Li was a bad person. Now, she did not like Tang Li because Tang Li looked down on her.
However, she wanted to ask Tang Li for help, so she could only suppress her dissatisfaction and ask nicely, âMiss Tang, how much do you want?â
âOne million for fortune-telling and five million for treatment.â
Situ Yueqinâs mouth widened in shock.
Although she was the daughter of the Situ family, her mother only gave her 200,000 monthly pocket money. She said that she needed to develop a habit of not being extravagant so that she could marry someone of equal social status in the future.
Tang Li looked at Situ Yueqin, who had a troubled expression on her face, and the corners of her lips curled up. âSince you donât have money, good bye.â
With that, she turned around and was about to walk back.
Situ Yueqin quickly said loudly, âTang Li, I want you to treat my mother. As long as you can treat my mother, Iâll give you five million.â
Although she always behaved like she respected Situ Jin, she still felt indignant. After her mother gave birth to her, she could no longer give birth. She knew that her mother had seen many doctors in private, but no matter how good a doctor was, they could not find out why her mother could not give birth anymore. She wanted to help her mother. As long as she had a younger brother, her life in the Situ family would be better.
At this thought, she quickly added, âIf you can treat my mother, Iâll give you six million.â
When Tang Li heard this, she smiled and turned to look at Situ Yueqin. âI said it will cost you five million to get me to diagnose, but to treat the illness, it wonât be as cheap as five million. Also, since your mother wants me to treat her, why didnât she come to talk to me personally?â
âErâ¦â Hearing that, Situ Yueqin widened her eyes in disbelief, and her face turned even redder. In the end, she broke down and started sobbing.â We didnât dare to find you at all. It wasnât easy for me to find an opportunity today to see you, but you actually said that. Arenât you a doctor? Arenât you supposed to save the dying and help the injured? â
âNo.â
After saying that, Tang Li turned around and walked away.
Situ Yueqin was angry and anxious. She was about to run after Tang Li to stop her when a familiar and gentle voice came from behind her. âYueqin, why didnât you tell me that you wanted Tang Li to treat Mother?â
These words sounded like a whisper, extremely gentle. However, Situ Yueqin instantly tensed up, and her body started trembling uncontrollably.
She did not have the courage to turn around and look.
Footsteps were approaching nearer and nearer.
Situ Yueqin broke out in cold sweat.
