Chapter Summary
Miss Zhao has arrived, saying she's a very skilled hypnotist..." Upon hearing that Zhao Lele had arrived, Xue Qiang's expression softened slightly. Have you been scammed, Miss Zhao?" Xue Qiang didn't hear Zhao Lele's words clearly, but someone in the room did—it was Xue Qiang's eldest daughter. After the woman finished speaking, Xue Qiang noticed that no one in the room had clearly heard what Zhao Lele said, so they all looked skeptical, including Xue Qiang.
Xue Qiang was already feeling down, and hearing this voice only fueled his anger.
Of his dozens of children, only Xue Fenfen brought him honor. Xue Qiang would only bring Xue Fenfen to family gatherings. Xue Fenfen was a warrior-level expert at a young age, ranking among the top young talents in the family.
Unexpectedly, a mere trip out of the city for training turned out like this. After returning, Xue Qiang exhausted all his social connections, but ultimately could not find a useful senior hypnotist.
"Are you in such a hurry to be reincarnated? What are you running for!"
Xue Qiang was like a furious lion, looking down on everyone. The one who rushed in was Xue's head butler, who always had a good relationship with Xue Qiang, but unexpectedly he was also being scolded.
"I'm so sorry, I have something urgent to report. Miss Zhao has arrived, saying she's a very skilled hypnotist..."
Upon hearing that Zhao Lele had arrived, Xue Qiang's expression softened slightly. Xue Qiang usually liked Zhao Lele very much; the two girls could learn from each other, and any father would be very satisfied with that.
Xue Fenfen was his illegitimate daughter, so she didn't have a high status in the family. Xue Fenfen was also rather timid, so she was often bullied by her older siblings. However, because she had a close friend like Zhao Lele, Zhao Lele often stood up for Xue Fenfen, which Xue Qiang was happy to see. If Xue Qiang were to personally intervene in this matter, it would inevitably involve a whole host of family members, so Xue Qiang basically wouldn't get involved.
However, he didn't want to see Xue Fenfen being bullied, and Zhao Lele's appearance solved Xue Qiang's problem, so Xue Qiang also had some genuine feelings for Zhao Lele.
Xue Qiang's mind raced at this moment. Zhao Lele's abilities were similar to his daughter's, so it was unlikely that she knew any highly skilled hypnotists. Could it be that Zhao Wudi had introduced her? Xue Qiang's eyes lit up. If it was really as he guessed, then his daughter might be saved. Zhao Wudi's connections were quite impressive, far surpassing those of Xue Qiang, the head of the Xue family. If Zhao Wudi was willing to connect him with a few high-level hypnotists, then this matter would be no problem at all.
Of course, Xue Qiang knew why Zhao Wudi didn't come. It was because Xue Qiang and Zhao Wudi didn't get along. Even if Zhao Wudi liked Xue Fenfen, he would never personally handle this matter. So he gave the task to Zhao Lele. Xue Qiang's imagination was quite vivid, and he was convinced by himself.
"Then what are you still standing here for? Hurry up and invite Miss Zhao in. If you delay her treatment, I'll kick you to death."
Seeing Xue Qiang's anger, the butler quickly left. "We're just errand boys," he said. "If we didn't have your permission, how could we have let him in? Don't you want to keep your job?"
"Lele, where is she? Where is she?"
Seeing Zhao Lele come in from outside, Xue Qiang quickly ran out of the living room, only to find that there was no one behind Zhao Lele, only Zhao Lele herself. Wasn't she supposed to have brought a senior hypnotist?
Zhao Lele looked around the room. Apart from Xue Qiang, the entire Xue family was there. Xue Fenfen had dozens of siblings. These people were there on the surface, claiming to care about Xue Fenfen's safety, but in reality, they were just trying to please Xue Qiang. The only ones who truly cared about Xue Fenfen's safety were probably Xue Qiang. Zhao Lele was an illegitimate daughter who was usually bullied by these people. Would they really care about her safety?
That would be truly unbelievable.
"Uncle Xue, please don't rush. It took a lot of effort to invite this senior hypnotist. Moreover, he is very skilled and can guarantee 40 hours of deep sleep. However, his price is not low either. I will settle these matters first, and then he will come in naturally."
As per Liu Ning's instructions, Zhao Lele was there to negotiate. Liu Ning was located near the Xue family mansion. If an agreement was reached, Liu Ning would immediately come in to rescue the person without delaying anything. However, if they were unwilling to spend money, then they shouldn't blame Liu Ning for being impolite. Liu Ning would not do charity work for the Xue family.
If it weren't for Zhao Lele's sake, and considering the past grievances between the Xue family and Liu Ning, Liu Ning would never have bothered with this matter. He would have just let the Xue family suffer as they pleased, it's none of his business.
"Why are you even talking about price? As long as I can guarantee 40 hours of sleep, I don't care about the price. Do you think I, Xue Qiang, can't afford it?"
Xue Qiang said confidently. He hadn't been listening carefully. He only heard that it was 40 hours, but he didn't hear Zhao Lele mention 40 hours of deep sleep. If he had listened carefully, he probably would have seriously considered the price.
Xue Qiang was in such a hurry for a reason. Seeing Xue Fenfen's vitality slowly declining, Xue Qiang really couldn't hold on any longer. What use were all his children? He was already middle-aged, and his position was nearing its end. If he lost this position and returned to the central base city, who would know what Xue Qiang did? He needed a capable child to support him, and Xue Fenfen was the only candidate. How could Xue Qiang not be anxious?
"Miss Zhao, did I mishear what you just said? 40 hours of deep sleep? Miss Zhao, don't think that just because we're in a hurry and searching everywhere for a top hypnotist, we're not smart enough. 40 hours of deep sleep? How is that possible? Are there any hypnotists like that in the world? Have you been scammed, Miss Zhao?"
Xue Qiang didn't hear Zhao Lele's words clearly, but someone in the room did—it was Xue Qiang's eldest daughter.
After the woman finished speaking, Xue Qiang noticed that no one in the room had clearly heard what Zhao Lele said, so they all looked skeptical, including Xue Qiang. It wasn't that they didn't believe Zhao Lele, but what she said was too harmful. Hearing about 40 hours of deep sleep, was she joking?
Xue Qiang quickly realized that it was even more ridiculous for them to say that Zhao Lele was cheating people out of money. Zhao Lele had never lacked money since she was a child, so why would she need to cheat people out of money?
Don't you people know how much money Zhao Wudi has?
