Tang Li walked over with a powerful aura and sat down. She asked directly, “Why are you looking for me?”
The two men in suits were initially surprised at Tang Li’s young age, but after she walked in, their expressions turned serious.
The woman opposite him was not to be underestimated.
At this moment, one of the middle-aged men in a suit spoke first. “Miss Tang, hello. I’m the general manager of this hospital, Li Zepeng.”
The other person introduced himself, “I’m the assistant manager of this hospital, Chang Jili.”
“This is…” Li Zepeng and Chang Jili looked at each other before saying,” This is Mr. Meng. “
“Mr. Meng came to ask you a few questions. You… don’t need to be afraid.”
Li Zepeng felt that the last four words he said were superfluous.
Tang Li nodded and looked at Mr. Meng. “What do you want to know?”
Mr. Meng glanced at the men in a suit beside him.
The two men in suits immediately stood up.
“We won’t disturb your conversation then. Mr. Meng, if you need anything, you can send someone to call us.”
It was obvious that the two of them were just here to show the way. After Li Zepeng finished speaking, the two of them left immediately.
After they left, Tang Li asked Butler Zhang to leave as well.
After everyone had left, Mr. Meng said, “I’m Hou Yong’s superior. Ever since he came back, there was something wrong with him psychologically. He’s not mentally ill. He just couldn’t get over his comrades’ deaths and had a mental breakdown.”
Tang Li looked at Mr. Meng but did not reply.
Mr. Meng continued, “Before we sent him to this hospital, we found many doctors to treat him. There are all kinds of doctors, including doctors who treat mental illnesses and… people who study supernatural things.”
At this point, Mr. Meng suddenly stopped. He sized Tang Li up with his sharp gaze as if he wanted to see through her heart.
Tang Li met his gaze without fear.
Mr. Meng was a little surprised but did not show it.
He continued to ask, “We tried everything we could but to no avail. I heard Miss Tang only spoke a few words to Hou Yong and he recovered?”
“There were a lot of people watching yesterday.” Tang Li’s lips curled up slightly, and her face was calm. “Mr. Meng, what exactly do you want to say? You can just say it, but before you say anything, let me say something first.”
Under Mr. Meng’s even harsher gaze, the smile on Tang Li’s lips deepened. “I’m a fortune-teller, so you’ll have to pay for it. If you want me to read your fortune, you’ll have to give me what I want.”
Mr. Meng was taken aback. He seemed to be in disbelief at Tang Li’s words. After a few seconds of silence, he suddenly smiled. This smile was not as stern as before, but rather, more amiable.
He went straight to the point. “The main reason I came today was to confirm that you really treated Hou Yong. After all, having that illness, he isn’t suitable to go on a mission. But early this morning, I received a call from him saying that he wants to go on a mission again. To be honest, I was really shocked at that time.”
“People in our department were all the best of the best, although we don’t have many people. Those who went on the mission with him didn’t come back. I don’t want him to end up the same.”
At this point, Mr. Meng sighed. There was an unconcealable sadness in his voice. “But I can’t stop him, and we can’t leave the bodies of teammates in that place forever.”
Tang Li pursed her lips slightly as she listened to him, but she did not comment.
Mr. Meng looked at Tang Li and suddenly asked, “Other than fortune-telling, what else can Miss Tang do?”
Tang Li explained the scope of her business. “I know how to read fortunes, practice geomancy, treat illnesses…”
Mr. Meng nodded and asked, “Does that mean Miss Tang believes that there are ghosts in this world?”
Tang Li stared into Mr. Meng’s eyes for a few seconds. Instead of answering, she asked, “Mr. Meng, do you believe in unnatural science?”
She thought that higher-ups like him only believed in science.
Mr. Meng seemed to have noticed Tang Li’s confusion and replied, “Our department is different from other departments. We not only believe in science, but we also believe in unnatural science.”
Tang Li smiled and nodded. “What a coincidence. I have the same idea as you.”
These words amused Mr. Meng. The atmosphere between the two suddenly became relaxed.
The two of them were chatting happily in the living room. Butler Zhang, who was standing in the corner of the courtyard, was burning with anxiety.
He decided to give Butler Yang a call. However, he was afraid that Mr. Meng’s subordinates would hear him, so he covered his mouth and lowered his voice. “I can confirm that that person must be someone important. Why would such a person suddenly come to look for Madam? Why do I feel so uneasy?”
After hearing him, Butler Yang asked him, “During the time Madam was chatting with that person, did you hear any loud scolding or raised voices from inside?”
“Nope.”
“Then just wait. Waiting is the best strategy for now. If anything really happens, call me immediately.”
“Alright!”
In the living room.
Tang Li and Mr. Meng talked for nearly half an hour before the conversation ended.
In the end, Mr. Meng asked for Tang Li’s phone number. “I think I might look for Miss Tang to do business in the future. Why don’t you give me your phone number so that I can contact you?”
Tang Li told him her number without hesitation and added, “I have a wide range of business. As long as Mr. Meng can afford it, feel free to contact me at any time.”
Mr. Meng smiled and nodded. After jotting down her number, he stood up and said, “I won’t disturb Miss Tang then.”
Tang Li stood up and walked him out.
After the car drove away, Butler Zhang was even more confused. If he wasn’t wrong, Dadam and that middle-aged man just walked out, chatting and laughing.
So, it wasn’t that Madam got into trouble and the higher-ups came to arrest her?
If it wasn’t for the fact that he didn’t believe in demons and monsters, he would have thought that Madam had been possessed.
Tang Li glanced at Butler Zhang, who was standing there in a daze and then headed toward the laboratory.
Butler Zhang was really curious about why that person was looking for her, so he asked, “Madam, why was that person looking for you just now…”
At this point, he suddenly realized that he had overstepped his boundaries and quickly stopped.
Of course, Tang Li could guess what he wanted to ask. She smiled and said, “I think I have another big client.”
Then, she looked up at Butler Zhang and asked, “Butler Zhang, are you really not going to look for me to read your fortune? The price is quite cheap now but when I get famous, it’s gonna be unaffordable for you.”
Hearing that, he said with a straight face, “No need, I believe in science.”
Tang Li narrowed her eyes and nodded in agreement. “It’s right to believe in science.”
With that, she left.
Butler Zhang was left standing there in confusion.
After Tang Li walked out of his sight, Butler Zhang gave Butler Yang a call and said in fear, “Brother Yang, I feel like Madam’s soul has been possessed by someone!”
