Huo Juanyan’s expression was as somber as still water, silent, his finger tapping ceased, and his whole body emitted an intimidating chill.
Qi Fenghao suddenly felt an invisible pressure, as if Mount Tai was pressing down on him, making it somewhat difficult for him to breathe.
But considering the unique identity of the Ghost Doctor, he forcibly swallowed his saliva to ease the fear in his heart.
He managed a strained smile and said, "Family Head Huo, these are the rules of the Ghost Doctor. She treats patients based only on fate. Even if I break the rules and tell you her whereabouts, she might not agree to treat your condition. Please don’t make things difficult for me."
Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of Nan Yu sitting not far away and a thought occurred to him.
"Family Head Huo, I know you have been trying every means to find the Ghost Doctor to treat your leg. I can’t reveal information about the Ghost Doctor to you, but I can introduce you to another doctor whose medical skills are very formidable."
Huo Juanyan narrowed his eyes, "Another one?"
Qi Fenghao nodded, "Her medical skills are not inferior, and she might be able to cure your leg."
After speaking, he gestured to Nan Yu in the distance.
"Dr. Nan, could you please come over here?"
Nan Yu walked over slowly, puzzled, "President Qi, what’s the matter?"
Qi Fenghao immediately said, "Dr. Nan, could you please take a look at Family Head Huo’s leg?"
Upon hearing this, Nan Yu looked down, her clear gaze landing on his legs before slightly lifting to meet Huo Juanyan’s deep eyes.
She reached out her hand, her voice gentle and pleasant.
"Give me your hand."
Huo Juanyan looked into those clear, watery eyes, and the restlessness in his heart calmed down.
His Adam’s apple bobbed, and he felt a tingling in his heart. He had intended to refuse, but inexplicably, he reached out his hand.
The next second, a faint scent drifted past his nose, and looking up, he saw Nan Yu pulling his hand over and turning it around.
Her pale, jade-like fingertips rested on his pulse, sending a cool warmth through him.
Noticing his secretary Chen Li moving to intervene, he quickly raised his left hand, signaling her to stop.
For a moment, the entire space quieted down, and time seemed to stand still.
After what felt like an eternity, Chen Li, standing behind Huo Juanyan, could no longer hold back, her tone harsh, "Dr. Nan, are you capable or not?"
Huo Juanyan shot Chen Li a cold look and softened his tone towards Nan Yu.
"I have consulted many famous doctors, all said my leg is incurable and that I would never stand again. It’s normal if you can’t treat it."
Nan Yu withdrew her fair hand, her gaze intensifying as she looked at him, "So you believe that in this world, only the Ghost Doctor can cure your leg, is that right?"
Huo Juanyan nodded, "Besides her, I’m afraid no one can cure my leg."
Nan Yu smiled charmingly, "What if I said I could cure it?"
Huo Juanyan, hearing this, squinted his eyes, his gaze darkening, "Are you joking?"
Nan Yu chuckled, "Why would I lie to you? The car accident you suffered years ago was severe, but fortunately, you received emergency treatment at the time, which saved your leg nerves. Over the years, your leg nerves haven’t completely died, and there is still a possibility of recovery."
Huo Juanyan suddenly grabbed Nan Yu’s wrist and pulled her down, his eyes burning red, "Can you truly cure my leg?"
Nan Yu, caught off guard, faced him closely, his distinct male scent causing her ears to heat up unintentionally.
She nodded gently, "Although it is difficult, it’s not impossible. As long as you trust me, I can help you heal your leg so you can stand up."
Huo Juanyan held her delicate wrist tightly, silently staring at her.
It seemed he was discerning the truthfulness of her words.
Chen Li, standing behind him, couldn’t help but whisper, "President Huo, we are about to find the Ghost Doctor. Maybe wait for news from her side first."
Huo Juanyan, as if waking from a dream, released his hold on Nan Yu, masking all the dark emotions in his eyes.
"I apologize for my earlier rudeness. As for the treatment for my leg, let’s not bother you any further."
