Chapter 29: Ghost Doctor Sect!

~8 min read 1,410 words

Gu Ran frowned: "What is going on here?"

At this moment, she was wearing a pink pajama set, her lazy posture looking very alluring.

Ye Feng took a deep breath and briefly explained the situation at the hospital: "A few days ago, my mother fainted and was hospitalized. I took her for an examination, and it's brain cancer."

"The day I was beaten up at home, my mother was in critical condition. I just happened to get lucky and saved her with a Silver Needle!"

"Then that unscrupulous doctor demanded an exorbitant medical fee from us. We didn't pay, and in the end, that vice president told us we didn't need to pay anymore!"

The more Ye Feng spoke, the angrier he became, his voice gradually rising along with it!

After listening, Gu Ran frowned even tighter: "Is there surveillance in the hospital room?"

Ye Feng was stunned for a moment: "Surveillance? There should be, I suppose."

Gu Ran patted Ye Feng on the shoulder, her tone firm: "Ye Feng, don't be anxious yet."

"Leave this matter to me; I will find a way to investigate it clearly. Rest assured, Auntie will be fine."

Ye Feng looked at Gu Ran, his eyes full of gratitude: "President Gu, thank you, but... this matter might involve many people, and I don't want to implicate you."

Gu Ran shook her head, her tone carrying a hint of unquestionability: "Ye Feng, you are my assistant; your business is my business!"

"Furthermore, you are an important person in charge of the Tianhai Technology Group project. If I let this go, you will certainly have no heart for work, which would be a major loss for my Gu Clan. I will investigate it as soon as possible and give you an explanation."

Hearing this, Ye Feng nodded, feeling a little more settled in his heart.

He knew that Gu Ran's ability and background were not simple; with her help, the situation might have a turning point.

Gu Ran took out her phone and dialed a number: "Hello, help me look into a brain cancer patient from a few days ago and the matter regarding Wang Zhenhai. Also, help me contact the chief of the Tianhai Police Station and the vice president of the Tianhai City Hospital!"

After hanging up, Gu Ran said to Ye Feng: "You go to the company and wait for me first. I'll go to the police station to see if I can bail Auntie out."

Ye Feng nodded gratefully: "President Gu, thank you, let me go with you!"

The morning sun slowly spilled onto the road filled with traffic, adding a sense of vitality to Tianhai City.

Ye Feng was driving Gu Ran's Porsche, his brow furrowed particularly tightly.

"It's okay, they wouldn't dare do anything to Auntie!"

Seeing Ye Feng looking preoccupied, Gu Ran patted Ye Feng's shoulder to comfort him.

Ye Feng nodded, but his tightly furrowed brow still did not relax.

Seeing this, Gu Ran only shook her head; no one would want to see such a thing happen!

"Buzz, buzz, buzz..."

At this moment, Gu Ran's phone rang. She took it out and gently pressed to answer. A woman's voice immediately came from the other end: "President Gu, the situation is somewhat complicated!"

Hearing this, Gu Ran also frowned: "What exactly is going on?"

The other end immediately said: "The surveillance happened to be broken that day. Wang Zhenhai insisted that it was the hospital that cured Shen Yurou. Because they were too busy, they were negligent for a moment and forgot to demand the medical fees!"

Gu Ran still frowned: "What does the police station say?"

The tone on the other end seemed somewhat angry: "The hospital is insisting on having Ms. Shen stay in the station, and that vice president even used his own connections. Chief Wang has no way around it either!"

"However, Li Zhongshuo said it's not without a turning point. He said to have you give him a call to discuss the details!"

"Alright, I understand!"

After speaking, Gu Ran hung up the phone directly.

Subsequently, she dialed the phone number sent from the other side.

The call was answered quickly: "Miss Gu, Ye Feng should be with you now, right? You should be on your way to the police station now!"

Gu Ran nodded and said: "Yes, what do you want?"

The other end continued: "Don't go to the police station. Make a U-turn along that road, turn right at the junction of the city and the countryside. There is a teahouse at the end; let's go there to discuss it in detail!"

After saying this, the other side hung up the phone directly.

"Make a U-turn, follow what they said."

Gu Ran did not know what they were planning to do, but they were currently in a very passive position and could only do as they said.

Ye Feng nodded with a frown and made a U-turn at the intersection ahead.

Following the location sent by Li Zhongshuo, the car drove out of the city and stopped in a desolate industrial zone.

Ye Feng checked the navigation to confirm the location was correct, but before him was only a dilapidated factory building; there was no sign of a teahouse at all.

"President Gu, is the address wrong?"

Ye Feng asked with a frown.

Gu Ran was also somewhat puzzled and took out her phone to confirm: "It's correct, it's right here. Li Zhongshuo said to meet at a teahouse, how could it be this kind of place?"

Just then, Gu Ran's phone rang.

She answered the call, and Li Zhongshuo's voice came through the receiver: "President Gu, you've arrived, right? Just come in; I'm waiting for you inside."

Gu Ran frowned, her tone carrying a hint of vigilance: "Director Li, this doesn't look like a teahouse."

Li Zhongshuo smiled, his tone relaxed: "President Gu, don't worry, you'll know once you come in."

After hanging up, Gu Ran and Ye Feng looked at each other, both feeling uneasy in their hearts.

But since things had reached this point, they could only bite the bullet and walk into the factory.

The light inside the factory was dim, and the air was filled with the smell of rust and machine oil.

As soon as the two walked in, the large door behind them suddenly closed with a "bang."

Immediately following, more than a dozen people holding firearms walked out from the surrounding shadows, surrounding them tightly.

Ye Feng subconsciously shielded Gu Ran behind him, his gaze scanning the surroundings vigilantly.

Gu Ran's face was also somewhat pale, but she remained calm and whispered to Ye Feng: "Don't act rashly, let's see what they want to do."

Just then, Li Zhongshuo walked out from the depths of the factory.

He was wearing a black suit, a strange smile on his face: "President Gu, Ye Feng, welcome."

Gu Ran looked at him coldly, her tone carrying a hint of anger: "Li Zhongshuo, what is the meaning of this?"

Li Zhongshuo did not answer Gu Ran's question, but instead turned his gaze toward Ye Feng, a trace of inquiry flashing in his eyes: "Ye Feng, I have a question I want to ask you—are you a member of the Ghost Doctor Sect?"

Ye Feng was stunned for a moment, his brows furrowed tightly: "Ghost Doctor Sect? What is that? I have never even heard of it."

Li Zhongshuo narrowed his eyes, his tone carrying a trace of suspicion: "You really don't know? Then why do you know the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles?"

Ye Feng frowned, but his face remained calm: "I don't know what you are talking about. I am just an ordinary driver; the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles is just something I happened to see in a book!"

Li Zhongshuo sneered, clearly not believing Ye Feng's words: "A coincidence? How could there be such a coincidence!"

Ye Feng looked at Li Zhongshuo, his gaze firm: "I really don't know anything about the Ghost Doctor Sect!"

Seeing that Ye Feng refused to admit it, Li Zhongshuo's expression gradually turned gloomy: "Ye Feng, stop pretending!"

"Twenty years ago, the Ghost Doctor Sect suffered a catastrophe, and only a few people escaped. You must be one of the remnants of the Ghost Doctor Sect!"

Li Zhongshuo sneered and waved his hand: "Since you refuse to admit it, then don't blame me for using some methods. Someone, take them away!"
