At this ti, within the banquet hall.
Qi Fenghao sat at the head and said to everyone, "Since Vice Chairman Gu has left, there’s no need to continue this welco banquet, everyone should head ho."
No sooner had the sound of his voice faded than everyone promptly left without stopping.
Within just a few minutes, the place was empty.
Nan Yu, having achieved her purpose for coming, didn’t stay long either and turned to Song Yingqing, "Let’s head ho too."
Upon hearing this, Li Chongbai quickly grabbed hold of Nan Yu, "Xiao Yu, wait a mont, let Miss Song head back first, I have sothing I need to discuss with you."
After saying this, he stealthily glanced at Huo Juanyan, who was sitting not far away, and a struggle flashed through his eyes.
Nan Yu didn’t notice the change in Li Chongbai’s expression and thought he had sothing important to discuss with her, so she nodded, "Alright."
Then she turned to Song Yingqing and said, "Yingqing, I’ll have the driver take you ho."
Song Yingqing gestured an "OK" sign with her hand and left on her own.
As she approached the door, she purposefully took a look at Huo Juanyan.
The man was dressed in an exquisitely tailored high-end suit, his crisp white cuffs gently rolled to reveal two blood-red gemstone cufflinks, his long hands casually resting on his thighs, his clearly boned right fingertips lightly tapping on his thigh.
His whole being exuded a bloodthirsty and dangerous aura, his eyes beneath the mask unfathomably deep, like a slumbering beast that could wake at any mont, ready to snap its prey’s neck in one bite.
Song Yingqing suddenly rembered the words used to describe him in rumors—
A madman who kills without blinking an eye.
Song Yingqing shuddered violently, quickly withdrew her gaze, and hurriedly left the place.
Once outside, she found the Huo Family’s driver and directly said, "Xiao Yu still has matters to discuss with Dean Li, you take back first, then co back to pick up Xiao Yu."
The driver’s heart leapt with joy upon hearing this and cheerfully responded, "Of course, Miss Song."
This was a perfect excuse not to pick up the Young Madam after dropping off Miss Song, letting the Young Madam take the Young Master’s car ho.
anwhile, back inside the banquet hall.
Li Chongbai had Nan Yu sit down, "Xiao Yu, wait here for a few minutes, I’ll go fetch sothing."
Nan Yu did not refuse, "Okay."
Li Chongbai turned and went upstairs to fetch the item.
Nan Yu slightly tilted her head and noticed Qi Fenghao stand up, making his way towards Young Master Huo’s direction.
Qi Fenghao’s deanor was respectful, his face wearing a cordial smile.
"Huo Family Head, what brings you to attend the banquet today? Is there sothing you needed?"
Huo Juanyan lifted his eyelids, his frosty gaze falling on Qi Fenghao, "Chairman Qi, I am here today for Vice Chairman Gu."
At these words, Qi Fenghao’s gaze shifted downward to his legs, "Huo Family Head, are you seeking her to treat your legs? Unfortunately, you’re a step too late; she left not long ago."
Huo Juanyan, without a trace of emotion, said, "Chairman Qi, please give Vice Chairman Gu’s phone number and address, I will contact her myself."
Qi Fenghao’s expression beca troubled, "I’m afraid that won’t be possible, Vice Chairman Gu’s identity is special, and by the rules, her phone number and address cannot be disclosed to just anyone."
Huo Juanyan seed to have anticipated this answer, his eyes remained calm, but the tapping of his fingertips on his thigh grew slightly faster.
"Chairman Qi, there are always exceptions to every rule, how about you na a price?"
Qi Fenghao chuckled awkwardly, "Huo Family Head, it’s not a matter of money, this is a rule set decades ago, no one is permitted to reveal the Ghost Doctor’s whereabouts unless the Ghost Doctor herself chooses to disclose them or makes an appearance."
"Please don’t make it difficult for —you just let step down safely from the position of chairman in half a year’s ti."
