Chen Kaihua was puzzled. 'Aren't we just treating an illness?' he grumbled inwardly. 'Why all this mystery?'
But then a thought struck him. Suspecting Zhao Yuan was about to use some unique treatment method on Liu Lili and worried he might cause a disturbance, he said, "Dr. Zhao, don't worry. I'll definitely stay quiet. I won't shout or make a scene."
He then added, "Ever since Lili got sick, I've taken her to see many doctors and we've tried all sorts of treatments. You could say I've seen it all, so I won't be easily frightened."
Zhao Yuan gave a noncommittal response and walked toward Liu Lili, who was curled up in a corner, hugging a doll and singing a nursery rhyme.
Sensing someone approaching, Liu Lili stopped singing and shot her head up to glare at Zhao Yuan.
In the dim environment, the black cloak that had previously covered her had been removed, and Zhao Yuan finally got a clear look at her face.
