The Capital's Dragon Doctor

Seeing Su Yanxue's expression, Su Linlin rejoiced inwardly. They had spent so much time together, so she naturally knew that Su Yanxue responded to kindness, not coercion.

"Sister, please help us. We know you'll help us, right?" Su Linlin began to sob. "Wooo, wooo…"

"Yesterday, Father didn't really mean to disown you."

"He was forced into it!"

Su Linlin spoke while surreptitiously glancing at Su Yanxue's face.

"You saw what happened yesterday. If Father hadn't pleaded for us, Lin Feng probably would have beaten us to death."

"Father had no choice but to cut ties with you. Please forgive him, okay?"

By the end, she was on the verge of tears, as if Su Yanxue had done something unforgivable.

Seeing this, Jiang Yuelian, who was standing to the side, started crying in concert. They played off each other perfectly, painting the tragic picture of a doting mother whose heart was breaking for her daughter.

At that moment, Su Yanxue's delicate brows furrowed slightly.

She felt there might be some truth to what they were saying.

Of course, she remembered the scene from yesterday. If she hadn't stopped him, Lin Feng probably would have actually killed these two to avenge her.

"Say what you will, but if you speak ill of my husband again, you can get out."

Despite this, Su Yanxue couldn't stand to hear outsiders badmouthing Lin Feng.

She would defend Lin Feng even against their own father, which greatly surprised Su Linlin and Jiang Yuelian.

"Yes, yes, we understand. We won't say anything like that again."

Su Linlin wiped the corner of her eye, where no tears had actually fallen, then turned to look at Jiang Yuelian.

"Mom, look how beautiful this villa is! I told you, Sister was bound to strike it rich after marrying Lin Feng."

"This should put Father's mind at ease. Since Sister won't help us, we'll just go back!"

"I wish you and Brother-in-law a long and happy life together."

After speaking, Su Linlin even bowed, looking as though she had completely turned over a new leaf.

Seeing this, Jiang Yuelian played along, wiping away a tear and sighing, "Alas, Xiaoxue, as long as you're living well, that's all that matters. I was wrong before. We'll be going now."

The two of them turned and left, looking for all the world like they had just been refused after coming to borrow money.

"Wait."

Su Yanxue called out, then stood and went after them.

Hearing this, Su Linlin's heart skipped a beat, and she almost bit her tongue.

'She had won the gamble.'

"Linlin, you said earlier that your dad fell ill. Do you need my help?"

Su Yanxue asked. Although her tone held a trace of suspicion, the anxious expression on her face was undeniable.

"Sister… Actually… actually, I'm not sure, but the doctor said… Dad's heart condition has relapsed. He needs surgery right away…"

As she spoke, Su Linlin's eyes grew red, and she looked like she was on the verge of tears.

"I see…"

Hearing this, a worried look appeared on Su Yanxue's face. She hesitated for a moment before taking out a bank card and holding it out to Su Linlin.

"Write down the PIN for this card, and then leave immediately."

"Thank you, Sister!"

A flicker of excitement crossed Su Linlin's eyes. She quickly reached out, took the bank card, and held it tightly in her palm, as if afraid Su Yanxue would change her mind.

"But aren't you coming with us, Sister? Dad keeps saying he wants to see you."

Su Yanxue froze when she heard that, the suspicion in her eyes growing more obvious.

'Before, she was just giving them money. At worst, if it was a lie, she would only be cheated out of some cash. But now Su Linlin was inviting her to go with them. This was clearly a test.'

Sure enough, Su Linlin immediately added, "Sister, I know you don't believe me, but it's the truth. Please, just come with us."

"Wait here. I'll go change."

Su Yanxue pondered for a moment before finally nodding in agreement. No matter what, she had to go see for herself. What if her father really was sick?

Besides, if she was worried about any trouble, she could just bring a few bodyguards.

The bodyguards at the manor were top-tier now. It was no exaggeration to say one of them could handle four or five ordinary people without a problem.

Less than five minutes later, a dressed Su Yanxue came downstairs. She called over four or five female bodyguards, and they prepared to depart.

"Sister, why are you bringing so many people? Are you afraid we're going to trick you or something?"

Su Linlin was a little surprised, but she quickly hid it.

"Don't worry. Since this is a visit, I must ensure your complete safety."

Su Yanxue said, walking toward the door.

"Hmph, what an act!"

Su Linlin pursed her lips and snorted, but her heart was filled with joy.

'In any case, the task Young Master Wang had given her was just to get Su Yanxue out of this manor. She didn't have to worry about the rest.'

Walking ahead, surrounded by bodyguards, Su Yanxue stared at Lin Feng's number on her phone. She hesitated for a while but ultimately decided not to call.

'She didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble for Lin Feng.'

'Besides, she had renounced her father in front of Lin Feng just last night. If she went back to see him now out of weakness, wouldn't that just disappoint Lin Feng?'

'Right now, if Su Yanxue were forced to choose between Lin Feng and her father, Su Guowei, she would choose Lin Feng without a second thought.'

'Forget it. He's probably busy right now. I'll go to the hospital to see Father first.'

Su Yanxue thought to herself as the group quickly arrived at the cars.

"Which hospital?" she asked, turning to look at Su Linlin.

"The exclusive private hospital near our house."

"Oh. Then let's take this car."

Su Yanxue gave the order coolly and ducked into the sedan first. Meanwhile, Su Linlin and Jiang Yuelian exchanged a glance, a strange smile appearing on their faces.

They got into a different car.

"Sister, traffic is pretty bad right now. Let's take the mountain road. You remember it, right?" Su Linlin asked.

"Yes, I remember. You give the directions."

After speaking, Su Yanxue closed her eyes, unwilling to deal with them any further.

"Okay."

Seeing this, Su Linlin didn't dare to act up and obediently agreed.

But as she turned back around, no one saw the vicious glint that flashed in her eyes.

'Hmph, Su Yanxue, you bitch. Be arrogant while you can. We'll see what you do in a little while!'

With that thought, she slammed on the accelerator, and the car shot forward, speeding off into the distance.

「 ... 」

"They're so slow. How stupid can those two be?"

On a remote side road, Wang Kai kept looking at his phone, as if waiting for some kind of news.

DING.

Just as he finished speaking, the phone he was clutching tightly in his hand suddenly chimed as a message came through.

When he saw the contents of the message, a vicious smile spread across his face.

"Heh heh, she fell for it."
