Xu Fei asked this question because, in his past experiences treating people from big families, it was almost always some old patriarch or grand elder lying sick in bed.
Perhaps it was just a habit that made him phrase it that way.
But this time, something felt off. After Xu Fei spoke, Uncle He’s expression turned a bit surprised.
“Miss, haven’t you briefed the miracle doctor about our family’s situation yet?”
At that, Yao Manyun’s attention shifted from Xu Fei, and she nodded a little sheepishly.
“No worries, since that’s the case, let me give the miracle doctor a quick rundown,” Uncle He said.
Through Uncle He’s explanation, Xu Fei learned that the patient this time wasn’t some old patriarch or grand elder, but a young woman in her prime.
The Yao family head, Yao Liangjun, was a titan in the capital’s business world, his jade trade growing bigger by the day, even showing signs of going international.
To outsiders, the Yao family’s life must seem cushy, yet Yao Liangjun, unless it was a major occasion, always wore a troubled look.
The reason? His second daughter, Yao Yunxi.
Unlike other family heads, Yao Liangjun never complained, even though his wife bore him two daughters in a row.
Instead, he genuinely treated both girls like little princesses, raising them with utmost care.
Yao Manyun, the elder sister, was three years older than Yao Yunxi.
Both were in their youthful prime, but while Yao Manyun lived a princess-like life every day, Yao Yunxi’s fate was far bleaker.
About two years ago, Yao Yunxi suddenly fell gravely ill and slipped into a coma, never waking since.
Over those two years, the Yao family had taken her to top hospitals and renowned Chinese medicine clans, but the verdict was always the same, incurable.
So, desperate to save his beloved daughter, Yao Liangjun pinned his hopes on the family business.
He figured that if he could boost the Yao family’s wealth and expand its influence during his tenure, raising their rank among the capital’s elite families, they might gain access to more mysterious big shots who could connect them to a reclusive miracle doctor to heal his daughter.
For this second miss, Yao Yunxi, the entire Yao family had been shrouded in gloom for two or three years, a cloud that wouldn’t lift.
So if Yao Manyun had truly found a miracle doctor this time, it’d be a massive relief for the family! No wonder Uncle He had been so skeptical at first.
Hearing all this, Xu Fei felt a slight twinge of surprise, he hadn’t expected his patient this time to be a young woman.
But to Xu Fei, it didn’t matter who he was treating, as the saying goes, a doctor’s heart is like a parent’s, he’d approach every patient the same.
“I’ve got the gist of it, but I’ll need to see her in person to know for sure. Please lead the way!”
Seeing Xu Fei waste no time, Yao Manyun and Uncle He grew even more eager.
They quickly pointed ahead, saying, “Doctor Xu, this way please, our second miss is staying upstairs!”
With that, Uncle He took the lead, Xu Fei and Yao Manyun following close behind.
Once inside the villa, Uncle He guided Xu Fei and Yao Manyun towards the stairs.
Just as they reached the third-floor landing, a figure suddenly appeared there.
