Chen Han looked at Liao Shuang, whose face was half-covered by her hair, and understood what was going on. He smiled and said, "Miss Liao, thank you for your donation, but our Chen Family cannot heal illnesses. You should go to a hospital for treatment. At most, we can pray to the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable for you."

Liu Ye breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

When Patriarch Chen said that, it meant he would agree to treat the illness; he had finally returned the favor.

But at that moment, Liao Shuang’s assistant, who had just wiped off the bird droppings from his forehead, found an outlet for his anger when he heard those words: "Miss, I told you the Chen Family wasn’t reliable, but you didn’t believe me."

As he spoke, he turned to Chen Han and questioned, "And you, the Chen Family, our lady donated a hundred million to you, not to hear that you can’t treat her."

Liu Ye’s relieved expression instantly froze, as he looked dumbfoundedly at the assistant.

Are you stupid or something?

Dude, everything was set up for you, and you’re going to blow it at the last minute?

Liao Shuang’s face turned, and she scolded the assistant directly: "Shut up for me!"

This was why she didn’t like her father’s assistant; the man managed to sweet-talk her father but left her speechless.

However, Chen Han laughed.

If they were here, it meant they already believed, and there was no way they would leave easily.

Plus, he had to complete the task of robbing the Demon Dao boss of his Spirit Stones.

The task needed to be carried out naturally, normally, and with style, which was quite challenging.

Wasn’t this the perfect opportunity they had brought to him?

"Ms. Liao, our Chen Family indeed can’t treat illnesses. The money will be refunded, so please go back. You should go to a hospital for medical treatment," said Chen Han, turning around and heading towards the hall.

Liu Ye became anxious and quickly said, "Patriarch Chen..."

Liao Shuang was equally anxious: "Patriarch Chen, this is a misunderstanding!"

She knew that this was a precious favor her father had consumed to get her this opportunity. She had also done her own investigation and knew some magical aspects of the Chen Family.

So, she was very anxious now.

"Please leave!" Chen Han’s voice came again from inside.

Liao Shuang wanted to say more, but Liu Ye had already stopped her and pulled her towards the outside. Now wasn’t the time to persist since Patriarch Chen was clearly upset.

Once outside, he sighed and said, "Patriarch Chen had actually agreed; this misunderstanding was unnecessary!"

Liao Shuang understood his meaning and could only follow him out of the courtyard, glaring furiously at the assistant, who stumbled again and fell to the ground this time.

He grumbled loudly, "The Chen Family can’t even fix their ground properly, just thinking about swindling."

Liu Ye’s frown deepened, and he couldn’t help but remind Liao Shuang: "I shouldn’t meddle with your Liao Family’s matters, but the Chen Family has a mystical power. If someone does something bad or wrong, they’ll have bad luck at the Chen Family. Your assistant has already had bad luck three times..."

This made the middle-aged man with glasses’ face change. "Miss, don’t listen to nonsense. I’m loyal to the company!"

He wanted to glare viciously at Liu Ye but reconsidered when thinking of his status, retracting his gaze with a start.

Liu Ye smiled and said, "Bad luck can be for any reason, not necessarily the company’s!"

Liao Shuang understood the implication, seeing that the assistant wasn’t confessing voluntarily.

She took out her phone and called her secretary: "Investigate Xiao Jie’s situation at the company, the documents, accounts he handled... everything..."

She was already dissatisfied with the assistant her father had assigned her; now it was a good opportunity to deal with him, avoiding criticism for getting rid of her father’s old aides right after taking charge.

Some people bring trouble upon themselves.

Xiao Jie’s face turned pale.

He knew that a thorough investigation would definitely dig out his issues. Some things were tacit knowledge, everyone turning a blind eye. If strictly investigated, there’s a chance he could end up in trouble.

"Miss, spare me. I’ve been with the boss for over ten years; if nothing else, I’ve worked hard." Xiao Jie seemed to realize she wasn’t bothered about his long service to her father and intended to oust him.

Liao Shuang sneered; he was again confessing without being pressured.

She couldn’t believe he had no issues, or he wouldn’t be so worried.

This also left her quite amazed at how effective the Chen Family was.

The assistant her father assigned was unfortunate as soon as he set foot in the Chen Family three times.

She glanced at her bodyguard, who got the message immediately, restrained Xiao Jie. Regardless of the situation, they’d determine his fate after the investigation concluded.

Just then, she received a message on her phone, causing her face to change. It was a refund notification.

"Uncle Liu, Patriarch Chen refunded the hundred million," Liao Shuang asked with a troubled expression, "What should I do now?"

Liu Ye sighed, "Don’t do anything today, wait until Patriarch Chen’s anger subsides. Later, I’ll take you around the Chen Family grounds. Their Jade Flower Tree, those courtyards with flower walls, all bloom overnight."

Upon hearing this, Liao Shuang looked towards the courtyards of the Chen Clan members. The flower walls decorating the courtyard walls were in full bloom, incredibly enchanting.

When she flew in, she had seen the news about the Chen Family, about their overnight blooming. She had found it unbelievable before; now, seeing it firsthand, she was even more amazed.

...

Chen Han also put down his phone in the courtyard. He wasn’t angry, not just because of a couple of sentences. Instead, he was wondering how well he had acted just now.
