Chapter 68: She is a Miraculous Doctor?

After ending the call with Huo Hanshen, Xu Xu’s mood lifted considerably.

The chill in her heart, originally caused by the Su family, gradually began to thaw with warmth.

Looking at the spread of delicious food covering the coffee table, she let out a soft laugh and prepared to continue enjoying her meal.

However, she had barely taken a single bite when her phone rang once more.

Picking it up, she saw that it was an unknown number.

Still, Xu Xu answered.

"Hello?"

"Junior Sister, be careful to conceal your whereabouts lately," a deep male voice sounded from the other end of the line. "Some mysterious force is looking for you."

The smile on Xu Xu's lips slowly faded, her expression turning cool and collected. "Don't worry, I'll be careful."

"They almost tracked you down. I helped cover your traces." The person on the other end let out a soft sigh. "Junior Sister, if worse comes to worst, why don't you just make your identity public?

At least that way, you'll be out in the open, and those harboring malicious intentions against you won't dare to make a move so easily."

"No." Xu Xu refused without a moment's hesitation. "Until I investigate the truth behind Master's death, I will not reveal my identity."

Master's death had always been a thorn embedded deep in her heart. Until she pulled it out, she wouldn't even be able to sleep in peace.

Her master's departed soul would otherwise find no rest beneath the earth.

"You... Sigh, fine. Have it your way." The person on the other end sounded somewhat helpless. He wanted to persuade her further, but he knew his junior sister's temper all too well.

She was as stubborn as a mule; once she made up her mind, not even ten oxen could pull her back.

Her senior brother had originally intended to hang up, but a sudden thought crossed his mind, and he quickly asked, "By the way, I saw in the news that you randomly picked a man at your wedding to enter into a flash marriage. What's going on with that?"

Hadn't his junior sister and Huo Yunzhe been dating for several years? How did it suddenly turn into a flash marriage?

"It's a rather twisted story..." Xu Xu shrugged helplessly, then briefly recounted how Huo Yunzhe had betrayed her. "...So, in a fit of anger, I put out a marriage proposal right there at the wedding venue."

"Are you out of your mind!"

Her senior brother's voice rose by several octaves.

Feeling slightly guilty, Xu Xu gave a dry cough. "The husband I had a flash marriage with is actually quite nice, and he treats me very well."

"You..." Hearing Xu Xu repeatedly defending her makeshift husband, her senior brother had no choice but to swallow the full belly of complaints he had prepared. "It's all Huo Yunzhe's fault!"

If Huo Yunzhe hadn't cheated and then arrived late at the wedding to humiliate his junior sister, Xu Xu would never have acted so impulsively.

"Don't worry, Junior Sister, I will definitely teach that punk a good lesson and vent this anger for you!"

Hearing this, Xu Xu quickly tried to stop him. "Senior Brother, you mustn't act rashly. What if you expose yourself?"

"I still can't let you suffer such a huge grievance!"

"Alright now, I'm really fine." Xu Xu gently consoled him. "It's all in the past. Senior Brother, please don't get involved on my account."

Since Xu Xu put it that way, the other party naturally had no choice but to agree verbally. "Fine, I'll listen to you."

As if.

Bullying him was fine, but bullying his junior sister... absolutely not!

Besides, he was confident he wouldn't be discovered.

That scumbag Huo Yunzhe, he was going to make him pay dearly!

As for his little junior sister's new husband...

Even though she claimed the man was a good person, he still felt somewhat skeptical.

What if the guy was just a hypocrite skilled in putting up a facade?

His little junior sister was too innocent and easily deceived.

He had to thoroughly investigate the fellow to see if he was just another scumbag cut from the same cloth as Huo Yunzhe.

"By the way, Junior Sister, what is the name of the man you had a flash marriage with?"

Xu Xu blinked. "Why is Senior Brother asking about this?"

"My junior sister is married; surely I have to know my brother-in-law's name, right?" Her senior brother asked in a light, breezy tone, concealing any suspicious motives. "Bring him out for me to see some time, let me vet him for you."

"Alright, definitely another day." Xu Xu harbored no suspicions. "His name is Huo Hanshen."

Senior Brother: "..."

Another one surnamed Huo?

Well, he definitely needed to look into this thoroughly.
