Chapter 208 A Sense of Danger
"Chairwoman Yun, you asked me to make an appointment with Elder Fu of Zhenbaozhai yesterday, but... he refused." An assistant stood in front of Yun Yao and said timidly.
It was perfectly reasonable for Old Master Fu to refuse, after all, he was known as the most stubborn old man in the capital who would rather break than bend! Yun Yao wouldn't make things difficult for a mere assistant like him.
"Okay, I understand. Give me Mr. Fu's phone number, I'll talk to him."
After Yun Yao was left alone in the office, she called Old Master Fu.
"Hello, who is this?" came Old Fu's slightly aged voice.
"Mr. Fu, I am Yun Yao."
The person on the other end was clearly taken aback for a moment, then sighed.
"Ms. Yun, first your company called, and now you, a busy person, have personally contacted me. Just tell me what your purpose is."
Yun Yao likes people who are decisive and efficient.
"Alright, since you're so straightforward, I'll get straight to the point. As far as I know, you have a grandson who is seriously ill and there's no cure."
The cruelest thing in the world is to reopen old wounds and rub salt into them. Yun Yao's words successfully angered Old Master Fu.
"Miss Yun, you are invading my privacy. Since your methods are so despicable, I think there is no need for us to continue talking." Old Fu said, about to hang up the phone.
"Old Fu, what if I had a way to cure your grandson?"
The other end suddenly fell silent, and after a long while, a trembling voice finally broke through.
"You...do you know what illness my grandson has?"
"I don't know." Yun Yao replied decisively without hesitation.
Full of hope, Mr. Fu felt a wave of humiliation he had never experienced before, as his hopes were dashed by a bucket of cold water.
"Yun Yao! Don't push your luck!" Old Master Fu shouted sternly.
Yun Yao said calmly, "I know Gu Jiuliang."
Today, Mr. Fu's heart was like it was on a roller coaster, going up and down.
His grandson was only five years old when he contracted a strange and difficult disease. They prayed to gods and doctors, and tried everything they could, but his condition did not improve at all. The family was really at their wits' end, but they could not bear to see such a lively and lovely child walk towards death step by step. It is no exaggeration to say that this matter is the most important thing for the Fu family.
It wasn't that they hadn't thought of inviting Gu Jiuliang, the renowned Chinese physician, but the Fu family was just a small fry in the jade industry with a little reputation. They didn't even know Gu Jiuliang's whereabouts, let alone invite him to treat their grandson.
"Miss Yun, do you have Dr. Gu's contact information?" Old Master Fu asked cautiously.
“It’s not just about having contact information, Mr. Fu. How about we discuss the specifics in person?” Yun Yao said.
"Okay! Okay! Where are you? I'll come find you." Old Fu couldn't wait any longer.
Yun Yao gave an address before hanging up the phone, then fiddled with her phone, her gaze gradually darkening.
"The world in the capital is about to change."
She has wasted too much time here, and her indifference has allowed these petty people to get away with it. Now, it's time for an answer.
Yun Yao got up, about to head to the place where she was to meet Old Fu, but just as she picked up her car keys, her phone rang urgently.
Yun Yao glanced down and saw it was Yun Zhengfeng. She pressed the answer button.
Before she could ask, Yun Xinru's shrill sobs came from the other end of the line.
"Sister, something terrible has happened! Grandpa has suddenly fallen ill!"
He fell ill? That shouldn't be the case! I just visited him a few days ago, and Yun Zhengfeng was recovering very well. How could he suddenly fall ill?
But Yun Yao knew this wasn't the time to dwell on it, so she grabbed her coat and headed outside.
"Hey, Mr. Fu, I'm sorry, something urgent has come up. Let's reschedule for another day."
Before Mr. Fu could respond, Yun Yao hung up the phone and threw it on the passenger seat.
Xiao Hei sped out of the garage and headed towards the Yun family's old residence.
Upon arriving at the Yun family home, Yun Yao was in a hurry and even forgot to bring her phone.
Yun Yao entered the villa, while her forgotten cell phone rang urgently over and over again.
Su Yuchen called Yun Yao several times, but she didn't answer any of them. He stood in front of the window looking at the W International building, his eyes filled with turbulent emotions.
Yun Yao always has her phone with her, so what's going on today?
Su Yuchen began to feel anxious and restless, and strode away from the office.
Mo Peichen was puzzled when he saw Su Yuchen rushing around as soon as he entered.
"Hey, you've only been at work for an hour, and you're already skipping work? I'll go wherever you want!"
"I have something to do." With that, he brushed past Mo Peichen.
Mo Peichen clicked his tongue and shook his head.
"Hmph, don't think I don't know what you've been up to. Besides Yun Yao, who else could possibly make this eternal iceberg of yours lose its luster!"
It has to be said that Mo Peichen understands Su Yuchen very well. At this moment, Su Yuchen is driving to W International.
Upon entering the front desk, Su Yuchen ignored the receptionist's surprise and looked at them coldly.
Where is your chairman?
Now anyone with internet access knows about Yun Yao and Su Yuchen's relationship. The receptionist, having recovered from her shock, respectfully said, "Mr. Su, it's really unfortunate, our chairman left half an hour ago."
left?
"Where did she go?"
"President Su, I'm sorry, this is the chairman's private trip, and we are not aware of it either."
Su Yuchen's eyes darkened slightly, and he nodded before leaving.
After he left, the two receptionists could no longer hide their excitement.
"Ahhh! I'm dead! President Su is even more handsome in person than on TV! So handsome!"
"Even if he's handsome, he's already taken. Are you as good-looking as our chairman? Are you as capable as our chairman? If not, shut up! If someone with ulterior motives hears this, even a celestial being couldn't save you!"
Ever since Yun Yao salvaged W International's reputation from the brink of disaster, everyone at W International has greatly admired and respected this woman who was only in her early twenties, and their protectiveness was evident in their everyday words and actions.
……
Su Yuchen stood in front of the car, mentally calculating where Yun Yao might have gone. For some reason, he felt a little panicked at this moment.
His concerns were not unfounded; Yun Yao was indeed in danger.
As soon as Yun Yao pushed open the door, she smelled the stench of blood in the air, and her face instantly darkened.
The smell is so pungent; it must have injured something vital.
"Yun Xinru?"
"Yun Zhengfeng?" Yun Yao called out softly.
However, no matter how Yun Yao called Yun Xinru and Yun Zhengfeng's names, no one paid any attention.
The further they went in, the stronger the smell of blood became, and Yun Yao couldn't help but frown.
Yun Xinru said on the phone that she would wait for me, but now that I've arrived, where is Yun Xinru?
Yun Yao sensed a conspiracy, but no matter what, Yun Zhengfeng couldn't be allowed to get into trouble!
The entire villa was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Yun Yao tiptoed up to the second floor.
Yun Zhengfeng's room was empty.
Just as Yun Yao was about to walk towards Yun Xinru's room, she heard a rustling sound behind her.
I turned around abruptly and saw my own bedroom.
Yun Yao stared at the closed door, her eyes darkening slightly. Although her magical power was depleted, her soul remained strong, and she clearly felt a sense of danger approaching.
She... hadn't felt this sense of danger in a long time!
