Chapter 299  : Why Is She Back So Early?

“At that time, he defamed you and even got people to deliberately slander you. I can’t believe he actually has the cheek to ask you for help again. Does he think you are a pushover or what?”

Tang Li looked at Mr. Yun, who was furious, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly. She comforted him, “Mr. Yun, don’t be angry. If they want me to treat their patient, they’ll have to get Augustine and the World Medical Organization to apologize to me in front of the media.”

The reason she didn’t care about Augustine slandering her was because she already predicted what would happen to him.

Now was the time.

The two of them chatted about Augustine for a while before turning the topic to the old man.

“Chinese medicine is really amazing. The old man can even stand up and walk a few steps now. At this rate, he’ll fully recover in no time.”

Tang Li flipped through the data and replied without much interest, “All the herbs I use are rare herbs, most of which are already extinct. Treating one or two is fine, but if there are too many patients, we won’t have enough herbs to treat them.”

Mr. Yun knew that Qi Yihan had spent a lot of time and effort to find the herbs Tang Li used, so he nodded and sighed. “If only these herbs could be artificially planted. That way, we can save a lot of people.”

“Yes, one day,” Tang Li replied casually.

The two of them talked for a while longer before Mr. Yun started talking about his students in Imperial Capital. “You’ve met Doctor Guo before. He came back from a medical conference some time ago and kept saying that he wanted to thank you. When you’re free, let’s have a meal together. I’ll introduce my other two students from Imperial Capital to you.”

Mr. Yun asked several times about this, but Tang Li couldn’t keep saying that she didn’t have time. She thought for a moment and said, “Ask them when they are free. I have to go back to the Tang family tomorrow.”

“Alright, I’ll ask later.” Mr. Yun’s students were either university professors or hospital directors, so their schedules were usually very tight.

Tang Li and Qi Yihan stayed with the old man until the afternoon before leaving.

After leaving, Qi Yihan went straight to the company while Tang Li returned to the Qi Mansion.

When Tang Li drove into the gate of the courtyard, the guard called to inform the other three madams and tell them to gather at the Pine Crane Tower.

First Madam didn’t like Tang Li at all. When she heard that Tang Li was back, she looked displeased. “Why is she back so early?”

Despite being angry, she still brought Qi Bailing to the Pine Crane Tower.

As she walked, she said to Qi Bailing, “She must have paid a visit to your grandpa. Later, we’ll find a way to make her leave.”

Qi Bailing, “Don’t worry, Mother.”

As soon as the mother and daughter walked out of the living room, they saw Tan Wenjing, who had come to the Imperial Capital a few days ago to live with First Madam.

Tan Wenjing greeted them obediently, “First Madam, Bailing.”

Then, she asked, “Where are you guys going?”

In fact, Qi Bailing disdained Tan Wenjing a lot. She thought that Tan Wenjing was just a girl who wanted to use her body to get rich. However, she wasn’t that despicable if the illegitimate son was who she wanted to hook up with. As long as they treated her nicely and showed her some kindness, she would definitely be useful in the future.

At this thought, Qi Bailing immediately smiled and told her, “Fourth Aunt is back, so we have to go and see her.”

Hearing that, Tan Wenjing’s eyes lit up. She thought that if she could suck up to Fourth Madam of the Qi family, she would be respected more in the Qi family. “Then can I go with you guys to see her? After all, I live here, so I think I’ll have to greet the Fourth Madam as well.”

Qi Bailing glanced at First Madam.

First Madam wanted to tell Tang Li about letting Tan Wenjing marry the little b*stard later anyway, so she didn’t mind Tang Wenjing coming along. “Sure, let’s go.”

Tan Wenjing nodded and followed behind them.

She was still wondering if she should go back and get some gifts for First Madam.

Or find some other time to deliver the gifts alone.

The three of them walked out of First Master’s courtyard.

After walking for a while, she bumped into Second Madam and Third Madam at the fork.

When they met, they started talking.

Second Madam said, “I heard that she came back alone. Why do you think she came back in the afternoon? Is she planning to stay here tonight?”

Third Madam: “Probably.”

First Madam snorted. “They must have gone to see the old man first. Then Fourth Brother went to the company and she came back. I think they did it on purpose to catch everyone off guard.”

During this period of time, First Master was very happy, and so was First Madam. As long as First Master could get a lot of good projects and money, she didn’t care about him having flings behind her back.

However, First Madam didn’t expect the two of them to come back from their vacation so early without noticing anyone.

If she knew this would happen, she would have hired a hitman to kill them on the way!

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was stupid of her not to have such thoughts before.

Hearing that, Tan Wenjing knew who was the most powerful and capable in the Qi family.

These three obviously were no match for Fourth Madam, so they could only talk bad about her in private.

It seemed that she had to leave a good impression on Fourth Madam.

In the living room.

Tang Li waited for nearly half an hour before the people came.

She glanced at them and continued drinking the tea without saying anything.

When the three madams saw that Tang Li did not greet them, they did not greet her either.

An invisible confrontation was immediately underway between the four of them.

At this moment, Qi Bailing couldn’t pretend that she didn’t see her. Otherwise, she would be accused of being rude to her elders again. She called out, “Fourth Aunt.”

Tang Li looked at her with a gaze that made her hair stand on end.

However, when Tan Wenjing entered, she was stunned by Tang Li’s beauty and aura.

When she finally came back to her senses, she quickly greeted her in a very sincere tone and flattered, “Fourth Madam, hello. I’m Tan Wenjing from the Qi family’s tea plantation in S Province. I’ve always heard that Fourth Madam is especially beautiful. Seeing you today, you really live up to your reputation.”
