Wu Qi said regretfully, but his expression and tone were clearly mocking Li Se.
"Alright, everyone, let's not waste time here. We don't have the keys yet, and such a ridiculous excuse is being made," Yu Hongwei urged everyone to leave.
Zhang Yunyun scoffed, "I really thought you had a villa here, Li Se. Fortunately, I didn't marry you, or I would surely regret it for a lifetime."
"What are you all doing here?"
Just then, a scolding voice was heard.
Several security guards were approaching, followed by men in suits. Their identities were clearly not ordinary.
"We are..." Yu Hongwei tried to explain.
"If you are not the owner of this villa, trespassing here requires the owner's forgiveness!" the security guard said.
Wu Qi was about to explain when he saw the man with an extraordinary identity and quickly stepped forward, "Director Sun!"
"Oh, Xiao Wu, why are you here?" This middle-aged man was none other than the director of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, Sun Hong.
"Director Sun, I have a friend here, so I came to visit his villa," Wu Qi quickly explained.
Seeing that Wu Qi seemed to be one of Sun Hong's subordinates, the security guards no longer pursued the matter. The captain of the security guards accompanying Sun Hong smiled, "So you're Director Sun's man. It's a misunderstanding."
Yu Hongwei and the others became nervous. This was Wu Qi's direct superior, the director of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. This was definitely a leader.
"Hello, Director Sun!" Yu Hongwei and the others hurriedly greeted him.
Sun Hong simply smiled and didn't say much.
"Director Sun, why are you here?" Wu Qi asked curiously.
"Oh, I'm here to visit someone." Just as Sun Hong finished speaking, his eyes lit up, and he directly put Wu Qi aside, walking quickly towards Li Se. Soon, he arrived in front of Li Se and said respectfully, "Divine Doctor Li, do you still remember me?"
"You are..." Li Se couldn't recall him immediately.
"It's me, Sun Hong. I was there when you had dinner with Mayor Ding," Sun Hong hurriedly introduced himself.
Li Se then remembered that Ding Peng had taken him to a dinner party some time ago, and Sun Hong had been present. He then realized and said, "So it's Director Sun."
"Ah, I finally get to see you. I've been gathering a lot of information and finally found out you live here," Sun Hong said with a smile.
"Director Sun, is there something you need?" Li Se knew that such a leader wouldn't come to find him without a reason.
Their conversation left Wu Qi and Yu Hongwei dumbfounded, they couldn't believe what they were seeing and hearing.
Firstly, it was Sun Hong's attitude. He treated Li Se as if he were a superior. Secondly, his words mentioned Mayor Ding. What kind of conversation was this?
At this moment, they all realized one thing: Li Se might not have been bragging. If what Li Se had said earlier was true, then they were the clowns.
Chen Bin looked at the expressions of these people and let out a hearty laugh. "They are just clowns, thinking they are somebody. In front of Li Se, they are nothing."
Sun Hong didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "Divine Doctor Li, it's like this, I want to ask you to treat my wife. Alas, recently, I don't know what's wrong, my wife has fallen ill. I've seen many doctors, but none have had any effect. Mayor Ding said your medical skills are extraordinary, and it was you who cured the mayor's wife's illness."
"Alright," Li Se agreed readily. "But I need to handle some personal matters."
After saying that, he looked at Wu Qi, Yu Hongwei, and the others, and said with a smile, "I'm really sorry, I genuinely forgot my keys, so I can't let you tour the villa. As for your subsequent gathering, I can't attend either, because I have to go and treat Director Sun's wife!"
Wu Qi and Yu Hongwei were petrified. At this moment, they no longer needed to doubt whether the villa belonged to Li Se. Sun Hong's attitude alone was enough to prove everything.
"Li Se, I..." Yu Hongwei wanted to say something. He now knew why the hotel had waived their bill. It was probably not because of Wu Qi, but because of Li Se.
But Li Se completely ignored him and walked forward.
Sun Hong, being an old leader, immediately noticed something and glanced coldly at Wu Qi, grunted, and followed Li Se's footsteps.
Wu Qi was sweating profusely. His political career was probably over. If he offended his old leader, was there any room for survival?
Chen Bin looked at this group of people and laughed wantonly, "Who told you to judge people by their appearance?"
The security captain also seemed to have figured something out and said to Wu Qi and the others, "Although Mr. Li didn't bring his keys, this villa indeed belongs to Mr. Li."
A critical blow! This was the critical blow!
The villa on the mountainside, the attention of the director of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau – any one of these was enough to crush them. Yu Hongwei and the others lowered their heads in shame. How could they continue in this profession in the future?
Cheng Mengsi looked at Li Se's retreating back, her eyes showing other thoughts.
As for Zhang Yunyun, her expression was complex, filled with regret. Li Se was so capable. If she had taken out that 300,000 yuan at that time, would she be Li's wife now?
Half an hour later, Li Se arrived at Sun Hong's home. It was a three-bedroom, one-living room apartment, well-decorated. He went straight to the room where Mrs. Sun was lying, examined her briefly, and took her pulse. He said, "This is a cold invasion, and it's also contaminated with malevolent energy. Mrs. Sun, you must have gone to a place with a low temperature and some unlucky aura these past two days, right?"
"Yes," Mrs. Sun nodded quickly.
Sun Hong recalled and immediately knew where it was. He said, "Could it be the morgue?"
He paused and said somewhat strangely, "But I went too, why am I completely fine?"
Li Se explained, "Everyone's constitution is different. Mrs. Sun is a woman, and her yin is naturally stronger than her yang. Moreover, with Mrs. Sun's body condition recently, it was indeed not suitable to go to such a place, because she is pregnant."
"What?" Sun Hong's face lit up with joy. "You mean my wife is pregnant?"
"Yes," Li Se nodded. "Pregnant women are not suitable to go to such gloomy places, as it is easy to attract spirits, and it will also affect the fetus."
"Then what should we do?" Sun Hong asked anxiously.
Li Se took out his silver needles and gave Mrs. Sun a brief acupuncture treatment. He then wrote a prescription and said, "Follow this prescription for three days, and you will be fine. Also, Director Sun, since you also went to the morgue, although you are fine, you have also been contaminated with some malevolent energy. It doesn't affect you, but it has a significant impact on Mrs. Sun. So, this is your prescription!"
Li Se wrote two prescriptions separately and handed them to Sun Hong. He then added, "Also, it is best for you to come home before eleven o'clock every day from now on."
