Chapter 43: Crisis of Feazer Medical Clinic
On their way back.
Tracy's delicate face was full of curiosity, her eyes fixed on John as though he were some kind of enigma.
She couldn't help but wonder—Who exactly is John?
Why was Julian afraid of him?
Why did even the boss of Hundred Flavors Restaurant seem so cautious around him?
Like a curious kitten, Tracy couldn't stop asking questions.
John had no choice but to give her a half-truth. He explained that at the Oriental Auction House, he had used the Nine Restoring Yang Needles, a rare and profound acupuncture technique that might have startled Julian, making him too afraid to offend him.
As for George, that explanation was much simpler.
Queenie had already told Tracy what had happened with Queenie Group, and since George was present during that event, it was only natural for him to be wary of John.
The explanation sounded so reasonable, so seamlessly logical, that Tracy didn't question it any further.
But in truth, John's real identity was the King of Horizon.
