1733 Mayhem Was About To Unleash
Huo Qing’s subordinate wanted to show Huo Qing to the lift after entering the hospital, but someone came from the corridor to their side and stopped them.
“Liu, what are you doing?” Huo Qing’s subordinate glanced at Liu angrily.
Liu’s left arm was injured, and it was hanging in a sling in front of his chest in a splint. Even though he was injured, his aura remained intimidating.
He did not bother to answer the subordinate. Instead, he looked at Huo Qing. “What brings you here at this hour, Third Councilor?”
Huo Qing’s subordinate frowned and stepped forward, wanting to say something but Huo Qing raised his hand, so his subordinate stopped talking and stepped back.
“I heard that Master Jinfeng has suffered severe injuries, so I came specially to see him.” Huo Qing stood with a hand behind him, his face looking genial as usual. “Is he alright?”
Liu’s face remained stern. He simply nodded and replied courteously. “Third Councilor, thank you for your concern. Master Jinfeng is fine. The doctor says he needs to recuperate. Anyway, it’s getting late, so he’s already sleeping. Please leave.”
“Oh? Is that so? Why did I hear that Master Jinfeng is dying?” Huo Qing played with his Buddha beads nonchalantly as he spoke softly.
He was making it clear to Liu that he knew everything about Master Jinfeng’s condition.
Liu pursed his lips and smiled slightly standing with his back straight. “You’re mistaken. Master Jinfeng got hurt, but it’s a minor injury.”
Huo Qing glanced at Liu’s arm hanging in front of his chest with his lips curved upward. “Since it’s a minor injury, why can’t I see him? Are you trying to hide something from me?”
Liu knew that Huo Qing had come with bad intentions. If he talked too much, Huo Qing might get aggressive. He narrowed his eyes and said, “I’m sorry I can’t let you go upstairs.”
“What’s with your attitude?” Huo Qing’s subordinate placed his hand at his waist and could no longer bear it. “You are just a subordinate. What gives you the right to stop us?”
“I only take orders from Master Jinfeng and he doesn’t want to see anyone.” Liu was unafraid of his demeanor. “Naturally, if anyone wants to insist on intruding, I can only execute my orders and do it the hard way then.”
“Quit making excuses. You…”
Before his subordinate was able to finish his sentence, Huo Qing interrupted him. “I was just too worried about Master Jinfeng. It’s probably too late to see him anyway. I’ll swing by tomorrow instead.”
Huo Qing did not give Liu the chance to speak. Instead, he glanced sideways at his subordinate and turned to go out.
From the moment he arrived and left, no more than three minutes had passed.
Liu stood where he was watching from behind as Huo Qing and his subordinate left. However, he did not feel relieved in any way. Instead, he became more worried.
The moment Huo Jinfeng got injured, Huo Qing and his supporters were bound to cause trouble. Things would probably get even worse tomorrow.
Liu inhaled deeply just thinking about it. He took out his phone to send the chief steward a text message.

After leaving the main entrance, Huo Qing’s subordinate turned to glance behind. He asked quizzically. “Master Qing, are we really leaving?”
Huo Qing looked up with annoyance on his face. “Uh huh. It doesn’t matter if we can’t see him for now. More importantly, Master Jinfeng is probably in serious trouble now.”
A sinister look swept across the subordinate’s eyes as he quickly walked down the steps.
After walking to the car, he opened the backseat car door and said softly, “That’s true. Otherwise, Huo Changfeng wouldn’t make arrangements for Liu to keep an eye here.”
If Master Jinfeng only suffered from a minor injury, why would they be so cautious?
“Perhaps our opportunity has finally come,” said the subordinate.
