Chapter 1025 Mist Disperses; Truth Reveals (3)
Mumu blinked and looked dazed and he obviously didn’t know what Fang Heng was talking about.
Xu Youning came to her senses and looked at Fang Heng in disbelief. “Did you deliberately provoke Dongzi so that he would leave the room?”
“Uh-huh.” Fang Heng brushed his sleeves like he were brushing off specks of dust and had a satisfied expression. “Very good. This guy is as easy to provoke as I heard.”
Xu Youning was speechless.
Fang Heng suddenly looked at Xu Youning, like a child seeking confirmation. The corners of his mouth curved and he asked, “Ms. Xu, what do you think?”
Xu Youning didn’t want to speak.
The doctor sent by Mu Sijue to the hospital to help her must be someone that Mu Sijue trusted very much.
She once thought that person must have a steady and mature personality, just like Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue, who were wise and reliable.
However, this doctor was too... casual.
Xu Youning even wondered if she had made a mistake. “Is this guy really working for Mu Sijue?”
Fang Heng didn’t miss Xu Youning’s microexpression, so he naturally knew what she was thinking.
He suddenly leaned down to look at Xu Youning and said, “You tried to find me, but why are you not speaking? I thought you had a lot to tell me.”
Xu Youning was stunned. “How did you know that I wanted to find you?”
“Well—” Fang Heng tidied up his hair and had an expression that said “Smartness could also be a burden”. He said helplessly and proudly, “I guessed it!”
Xu Youning was rendered speechless.
Fang Heng looked at the time and said leisurely, “Kang Ruicheng’s man should not be back so soon. If you have something to say, say it now. No matter who you want to tell, I can help you relay the message!”
It wasn’t that Xu Youning didn’t have anything to say, but she didn’t dare to open her mouth that easily.
She was still very skeptical. Was this guy really reliable?
Fang Heng noticed that Xu Youning was cautious, so he simply said more clearly and then emphasized, “Including—” His voice suddenly softened and he mouthed two words, “Mu Sijue!”
Mumu couldn’t understand the conversation between Fang Heng and Xu Youning. He looked dazedly at Xu Youning and then at Fang Heng.
In the end, he saw Fang Heng mouthing the name and finally understood that the doctor knew Uncle Mu!
The little guy reacted faster than Xu Youning. He stared at Fang Heng with wide open eyes and said, “Doctor, you...”
“Little fellow, quieten down—” Fang Heng seemed to have expected Mumu’s reaction, and he smiled at the little fellow before placing his index finger on his lips to shush him. After that, he shook his head and indicated that Mumu was to keep quiet.
Mumu nodded obediently, covered his mouth carefully, and looked cooperative.
Xu Youning felt much better. She sat up and looked at Fang Heng. “When did you know the truth?”
Fang Heng directly exposed Xu Youning. “What you really want to ask is when Mu Qi knew about it, right?”
Xu Youning frowned to hide her embarrassment, and her expression turned cold. “You don’t need to know too much. Just answer my question.”
“All right.” Fang Heng knew that they didn’t have much time, so he cut to the chase and told her the truth. “I was summoned back home temporarily. I don’t know the ins and outs of the matter. I only know that Mu Qi and the others protected a doctor surnamed Liu.”
Xu Youning was stunned. “Doctor Liu?”
There was no need to ask anymore. Xu Youning suddenly understood.
Mu Sijue and Su Jian’an had doubts about her. If they successfully found out about Doctor Liu and continued to investigate Doctor Liu, they would indeed know everything she had hidden from Doctor Liu.
In fact, Su Jian’an’s suspicions had always been right, and the direction of her investigation was completely correct.
No wonder some people said that Su Jian’an was very astute.
In this case, she would have nothing to worry about.
Doctor Liu was now under Mu Sijue’s protection, so she didn’t have to worry about any innocent people getting hurt because of her.
Mu Sijue already knew what she was hiding, and there would be no misunderstanding between them. He would secretly help her and protect her.
She was no longer alone and helpless in the Kang family.
She didn’t have much hope of surviving, but she still had a chance to escape from the Kang family and have a perfect ending to her life.
Xu Youning didn’t have time to be happy and excited. She looked at Fang Heng and expressed her biggest doubt. “How did you avoid Kang Ruicheng’s investigation and enter the hospital?”
“I’m only responsible for the acting part. Mu Qi is in charge of everything else.” Fang Heng smiled and deliberately tantalized Xu Youning. “Ms. Xu, do you want to know the details?”
How could Xu Youning not know that Fang Heng did it on purpose? She restrained any excessive expression on her face and ordered, “Cut the crap!”
Fang Heng was surprised. Almost as a reflex reaction, he cried out, “Wow!”
In fact, he had never understood why Mu Sijue, who had been single for more than 30 years, would easily fall in love with a woman who had worked under cover for him.
Now he found that Xu Youning was the same as Mu Sijue.
Mu Sijue and Xu Youning were the same kind of people.
It wasn’t strange for people who were alike in temperament to feel attracted to each other.
Fang Heng coughed and didn’t waste any more time. He briefly told Xu Youning the whole thing.
“After Mu Qi knew about your illness, he guessed that Kang Ruicheng would help you find a doctor. At the same time, he also thought that once the doctor hired by Kang Ruicheng examined you, your secret would be exposed.
“For your safety, Mu Qi sacrificed Auston’s integrity to create the illusion that Auston didn’t want you to see a doctor because of jealousy, forcing Kang Ruicheng to send you to a local hospital, because as long as you go to a local hospital, he can control the situation.
“Also, I am not a doctor of the Eighth People’s Hospital. I simply replaced the one working in the hospital through a method we all know. This is not the point. The real point is—Ms. Xu, I am much more handsome than the face you are seeing.”
“It’s a pity. I’ve seen the most handsome person. I’m not interested in your face.”
Xu Youning didn’t care about Fang Heng’s narcissism and was still lost in thought—
The truth was similar to what she had expected.
Mu Sijue controlled everything behind the scenes, while Auston was just a scapegoat.
Xu Youning smiled and her eyes suddenly turned red.
She didn’t know whether she felt moved or something else.
It was the first time people had ignored Fang Heng’s handsome face, and he didn’t come to his senses until he saw Xu Youning’s tears.
He coughed and reminded her in a low voice, “Ms. Xu, now is not the time to cry tears of joy. Can we deal with the business first?”
Xu Youning took a deep breath and forced back her tears. “You and Auston are both good at acting. I was almost taken in.”
Fang Heng nodded and said without any modesty, “I also think it’s a pity that I’m not an actor.”
Xu Youning was speechless.
She had seen people who felt good about themselves, but she had never seen someone who could surpass this doctor.
She tried to get back to the topic. “Will someone search you when you go back?”
“I was searched when I came.” Fang Heng pondered for a moment and said unexpectedly, “It’s inevitable when I go back, I guess!”
Xu Youning felt as if she was choked and didn’t want to speak.
She had intended to let Fang Heng take away what she had collected and ask him to hand it over to Mu Sijue.
She also believed in the people that Mu Sijue believed in.
But now it seemed that this method was not feasible for the time being.
Dongzi would definitely search Fang Heng. If the item was found, Fang Heng would die on the spot, and she would die soon too.
Fang Heng knew what Xu Youning was thinking, so he said, “Maybe next time.”
His tone was surprisingly no longer teasing or casual. Instead, it contained a kind of steadiness after careful consideration.
It was indeed inappropriate for him to take anything out now. Mu Sijue wouldn’t want him and Xu Youning to take the risk.
He and Xu Youning would definitely see each other again within a week. He would go back and discuss it with Mu Sijue. Mu Sijue might think of a way out.
Xu Youning nodded, looked at the time, and said, “You should go.”
Fang Heng smiled and tousled Mumu’s hair. “Little guy, goodbye.”
Mumu waved at Fang Heng. “Goodbye, Uncle.”
Fang Heng picked up his case. As soon as he reached the door, it was pushed open, and Dongzi appeared at the door with a gloomy face.
He glanced at Dongzi and reminded him meaningfully, “Good dogs don’t block the way.”
Dongzi ignored Fang Heng’s provocation and motioned for his man to approach him. The man snatched Fang Heng’s case and searched him.
Fang Heng didn’t intend to resist at all. He opened his hands cooperatively and raised his chin at Dongzi. “Let me give you a piece of advice. You can leave this job to a beauty. I will enjoy it very much.”
Dongzi glanced at Fang Heng disdainfully and asked, “How did you become a doctor?”
Fang Heng didn’t have the steadiness and rigor that a doctor should have. Instead, he didn’t lack narcissism or undiscipline.
However, Fang Heng was a doctor personally hired by Kang Ruicheng. He couldn’t question Fang Heng in front of Kang Ruicheng; otherwise, it would seem that he was questioning Kang Ruicheng’s judgement.
Dongzi’s man searched Fang Heng very carefully, but still found nothing, and there was nothing unusual about the case either.
“Brother Dong.”
The man called Dongzi and shrugged, giving him a helpless look.
Fang Heng smiled and tidied up his coat and scarf. “Can I leave now?”
Dongzi said with an unfriendly look, “Get out!”
“Huh?” Fang Heng paused abruptly when he was about to pick up the case. He looked at Dongzi, and his expression became increasingly colder. “I’m warning you. You’d better be polite to me. I don’t care what you mean to Mr. Kang. Mr. Kang needs me now because only I have a chance to cure Ms. Xu. If I say that I don’t want to see you again, you’ll soon disappear from City A.”
Dongzi could tolerate any doubts.
However, in this world, no one could question his importance to Kang Ruicheng!
Dongzi touched the gun at his waist and was about to pull it out—
“He’s just a doctor. I don’t believe that I can’t scare him!”
Xu Youning noticed Dongzi’s movement and slammed the door. “Are you done? Dongzi, send the doctor back!”
If she guessed correctly, Kang Ruicheng’s leaving for something temporarily was Mu Sijue’s masterpiece for her to be alone with Fang Heng.
If Fang Heng didn’t leave, Kang Ruicheng would be back.
