Chapter 262: Chapter 262: Treating the Huo Family Head

Chen Li drove the car, casting a glance at the mysterious Nan Yu, who wore a mask.

President Huo had sent her to Dean Li to inquire about Li Yingying’s whereabouts and to investigate whether Doctor Li was the "Ghost Doctor."

She felt that would be too troublesome; it would be easier to simply invite this Doctor Li over for an immediate diagnosis.

If this Doctor Li was indeed the Ghost Doctor, she would surely be able to treat President Huo’s legs, and if not, there would be no loss.

Nan Yu noticed Chen Li using her peripheral vision to size her up and said calmly, "Secretary Chen, how many years has the Huo Family Head’s leg injury been?"

While driving, Chen Li replied, "Eight years ago, the Family Head suffered a serious car accident that left his legs disabled."

Mentioning this, her tone noticeably became somber, and the atmosphere inside the car grew heavier.

Nan Yu silently took note of the date.

"Doctor Li, we’ve arrived."

Chen Li parked the car, got out, and turned around to help Nan Yu with her suitcase.

Nan Yu deftly avoided her and said, "I’ll handle it myself."

She looked around the parking lot and recognized it as the residence she had been to before.

Chen Li took the lead, directing, "Doctor Li, the Family Head is staying on the penthouse level, please follow me this way."

Nan Yu got into the elevator and saw Chen Li press the button for the topmost floor.

One minute later, the elevator doors opened.

Nan Yu saw the black door before her, exuding an intense sense of authority.

She stepped out of the elevator and watched Chen Li ring the doorbell.

She then saw the familiar housekeeper open the door.

"Secretary Chen, the young master is waiting for you in the study."

Chen Li immediately told Nan Yu, "Doctor Li, the study is on the second floor, please come with me."

Nan Yu hummed in acknowledgment and followed her upstairs.

The entire top floor was split into two levels, with the living room and kitchen on the first floor, and the study and bedroom on the second.

Nan Yu remembered that she had stayed in a small guest bedroom on the second floor during her last visit.

The study was located around the corner at the end of the stairway.

Nan Yu stood at the doorway of the study, listening to Chen Li knock.

"Family Head, Doctor Li has arrived."

No response came from inside, and a lengthy silence ensued.

Just as Nan Yu was about to inquire, a deep voice at last emanated from within.

"Come in."

The next moment, Chen Li pushed the door open, making way for Nan Yu to enter.

Nan Yu lifted her head and looked into the study.

At first glance, she saw the Huo Family Head sitting in the center of the study.

He wore half a black and gold mask and was dressed in black satin pajamas, holding a book in his hands.

At the sound of the door opening, Huo Juanyan turned his head, his cool gaze resting on Nan Yu.

He closed his book and slightly parted his lips.

"Doctor Li, please come in."

Nan Yu had always seen the Huo Family Head in suit and tie, stern and commanding, an authoritative presence.

This was her first time seeing him dressed casually, less sharp and somewhat softer.

"Family Head, extend your hand, and I’ll examine you right away."

Nan Yu retracted her inspecting gaze and approached Huo Juanyan, speaking directly.

Huo Juanyan looked at Nan Yu with surprise and didn’t move.

Nan Yu frowned, looking at him puzzledly, "Hmm? Family Head, wasn’t that why you called me here—to examine your leg? Is there a problem?"

Huo Juanyan regarded the distinctively different Nan Yu and raised an eyebrow.

"Doctor Li, you are the first doctor who has come up to treat me before getting to know my condition. Previous doctors would first understand my situation."

Nan Yu’s clear eyes stirred slightly as she placed her box on the desk and said to him, "I prefer to check the pulse first. If there’s anything I want to ask, I’ll do so afterward."

"But usually, most of your condition will be reflected in the pulse."
