Silver Fox saw Zhan Diting and seemed surprised to meet her here. He shook his head with a smile. "Zhan Diting, what a rare encounter. It has been so many years. I thought you were dead."
"You die, I won't die," Zhan Diting said coldly. His look at Silver Fox was not friendly.
"True. You are a half-dead god. Death is like traveling abroad for you. Life and death are just doors you walk through." Silver Fox seemed to agree with his words.
Zhan Diting looked at her. "Why are you here?"
"If you know I am here, you know Venerable Yanluo is here too. You have seen her. You should know why I am here." Silver Fox looked at her seriously. "Zhan Diting, I do not plan to kill anyone or destroy the world. I only want her to save people when she becomes a god."
"If she can save them, she will. But you should know your 'she' cannot be saved," Zhan Diting said seriously. "If she wants to live, the Heavenly Dao will not allow it."
"I do not care if the Heavenly Dao allows it. I just want her to live." Red veins appeared in Silver Fox's eyes. "She hurt no one. She even paid with her life to help her. Now she sleeps. Her price is enough."
Zhan Diting looked at Silver Fox. her fighting spirit faded, replaced by pity. "Even if the Heavenly Dao does not punish you, and even if she can be saved, do you think she wants to come back? You know what happened best."
"I know best. That is why I want her to live." Silver Fox had his own stubbornness. Many said she could not be saved, but he did not care. Only he knew his path.
Zhan Diting paused. "I hope you are right. But I do not want to hear you hurt my sister-in-law. It is hard for her and the Boss to be together."
"I will not hurt her for now. You know this better than me." Silver Fox looked thoughtful. "She is my hope. If anyone affects her cultivation, I will kill them. So rest assured. I want her to be well more than anyone."
"That is good," Zhan Diting said.
"Tell Venerable Yanluo to stop clinging to her. A person must grow up. An eagle throws its young off a cliff to let it fly. Grass needs wind and rain to grow. The Medical God needs to grow. Venerable Yanluo protecting him constantly is meaningless. He must let go when the time comes."
Silver Fox drank his coffee elegantly. His tone was calm, as if talking about nice weather.
Zhan Diting looked back at her and nodded slightly. "Even if you do not say it, I think the Boss knows what to do." Then she left.
Watching Zhan Diting leave, Silver Fox sighed. "This is not a good place. You all appear one by one. What are you trying to do? Do you not know this might make that day come early?" No one heard him. He only said it to himself.
Zhu Yanyi did not know Zhan Diting had returned. After recovering, she first checked Linda’s post-surgery recovery. Then she checked the four people cured of gu poison. Seeing they were recovering well, she went to check Eddie, Laura, and Zhu Xinfu.
Zhu Yanyi was busy every day. Yan Aohan was busy every day too. Their busyness made them temporarily forget about the Zhu family in Zhu City.
The situation in Zhu City was very bad. Everyone had small red spots on their faces. The spots had shapes. Some looked like plum blossoms, some like hearts, some like stars. For the women, this was acceptable. But the men had them too.
Zhu Yongfu looked at the heart-shaped red spot on his face. His eyes were full of anger, ruining the pink, gentle look of the heart. His face was dark. First, Zhu Shenfu disappeared. Then these red spots appeared. Even a fool knew they were trapped.
Doctors could not find the cause. Qu Zhong, a disciple of Medicine Second Brother who knew poisons, checked them. He said the illness was not contagious. He tried hard but could not cure it. He returned to the capital disappointed, saying he would find the Little Divine Doctor.
Others would be happy about this. But Zhu Yongfu felt conflicted.
She wanted her family to be safe. If Zhu Yanyi came, it would be good. But she was afraid she would come. What if she found the truth about Zhu Shenfu?
No one knew if Zhu Shenfu was alive or dead. If he was dead, it was better. At least the truth would not be exposed. But if he was alive?
Zhu Shenfu had broken legs, gouged eyes, and a cut tongue. Yet he dug a tunnel. What kind of willpower was that?
The tunnel led outside the Zhu Manor. Zhu Yongfu did not know how he cleaned up. He found no traces.
She never believed Zhu Shenfu contacted anyone. If she did, Zhu Yongfu would be in danger already.
But he worried about one thing. If Zhu Shenfu was hiding in the dark, and appeared when the Little Divine Doctor came, the situation would be hard to control. They would become mortal enemies.
But if the Little Divine Doctor did not come, the Zhu family would be in trouble.
Because of this, Zhu Yongfu was both worried and hopeful. She worried Zhu Yanyi would come. She hoped the Little Divine Doctor would come.
"Brother, what do we do now?" Zhu Jinfu returned from Sicheng Town. He did not expect this situation at home.
Fortunately, he had gone out. So his face was clean. This confirmed to Zhu Yongfu that the Zhu family was trapped.
"How is the contact with the perfume Zhu Shenfu?" Zhu Yongfu could only take it step by step. She hoped Zhu Yanyi and the real Zhu Shenfu would not meet. The most important thing was to bring the perfume Zhu Shenfu back.
"The telegram was sent. We should receive a reply soon," Zhu Jinfu answered. "But even if Shenfu returns, it will not be fast."
Zhu Yongfu nodded darkly. The heart-shaped spot on his face, combined with his gloomy expression, looked eerie.
Zhu Jinfu felt nauseous looking at him. He said, "Brother, think of a way to remove the things on your faces first."
