Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss - Chapter 1143
Chapter 1143: Did You Make Things Difficult For Her Earlier?
Song Qi rubbed her brow. She could not wrap her mind around this. “I am sure there must be some mistake about this whole matter. She is only in her twenties. How could she be the peerless doctor?
Even if someone could reach such heights while she was in her twenties, she refused to believe it could be Song Ning’s daughter.
How could this happen?
Song Qi lowered her eyes, tapped on her phone, and looked at the number on it. Just as Song Zhi was about to speak, she raised her hand and interrupted him. Then, she tapped on the dial button.
Song Zhi swallowed his words.
The moment Song Qi dialed the number, the call got through after a few rings. However, the person on the other end quickly hung up the phone. When Song Qi tried again, all she got was a message telling her the phone was not within the service area.
Song Qi had clearly gotten blacklisted.
She hung up the phone in annoyance.
“Did she refuse to answer?” asked Song Zhi.
“Just look at how cocky she is,” said Song Qi. She paused before she lowered her head and sent Ji Ya a text message asking whether the number was right.
When she learned the number was indeed correct, she had no choice but to accept the fact that Huo Yao was the peerless doctor who came at the recommendation of the chairman of the Apothecaries’ Association.
Song Zhi was not in a good mood either. He asked Song Qi. “Did you make things difficult for her earlier?”
Song Qi’s eyes glinted guiltily. She pursed her lips and said, “What could I possibly do to her? I simply asked her to leave Tsing University and keep her distance from my daughter.”
If she really wanted to make things difficult for Huo Yao, she would have driven her out of the capital immediately. Would Huo Yao have had the chance to continue staying in town?
Song Zhi knew what Song Qi was capable of. Even though Song Qi made it sound as though nothing happened, she probably was not telling the truth. He wiped his face and sighed powerlessly.
Song Qi glanced at him before she muttered. “Didn’t you do the sameby trying to abduct her previously?” It was clearly more serious than what she had attempted to do.
Song Zhi instantly looked even more worried.
If he had known Song Ning’s daughter was the peerless doctor and was even friends with the chairman of the Apothecaries’ Association, he would have invited her to live in the capital and groom her. Would he have attempted to kidnap her?
As the atmosphere became increasingly intense, Zhu finally looked at them and said, “Why don’t we give Miss Ning a call? After all, we really need help treating Old Master Song. I am sure no matter how much Miss Ning hates the Song family, she will not leave her biological father in a lurch, right?”
Zhu’s words instantly comforted Song Zhi and Song Qi, in particular Song Qi.
He was right. How could she forget about Song Ning?
Huo Yao might not be bothered to save Old Master Song, but Song Ning was his daughter. Even if Song Ning had severed ties with the family, she was his blood and nothing could change that.
“I will call her now.” Song Qi pondered before tapping on her phone.
Song Zhi stopped Song Qi from making the call. “Don’t bother calling her. I will visit her myself.”
Song Qi raised her head and asked him in shock. “Are you going personally?”
Song Zhi narrowed his eyes and nodded. “Yes, I am. It is impossible to make things clear over the phone. If I go personally, I have a higher chance of convincing her to help.”
“That’s true.” Song Qi turned off her phone. “You are probably right.”
Song Zhi raised his hand to check the time. He turned to say to Zhu. “Check if there are any flights for tonight.”
“Okay,” acknowledged Zhu before quickly checking his phone. “Uh huh. There is a 10:00 pm flight available.”
Song Zhi nodded. “In that case, get me the flight for 10:00 pm. Let me get my stuff and we can leave.”
The moment he finished his sentence, he took his car keys. He stopped to contemplate briefly before turning to look at Butler Wang. “Uncle Wang, why don’t you come along with me? After all, you know Ning better than any of us, so she might give you face.”
