56: Chapter 56 Treating the Big Shot

"Ring ring..."

Just then, a phone rang. Qin Mo instinctively checked it and found it was an unknown number.

"Hello? Who is this?"

"Is this Qin Mo?"

A raspy voice of an old man came from the other end.

Qin Mo asked in confusion, "And you are?"

"Hahaha, young friend, have you forgotten this old man so quickly?"

Qin Mo was momentarily stunned upon hearing this.

"You are... Elder Li?"

"It's rare that you still remember this old man."

A hearty laugh immediately came from the other end.

Qin Mo suddenly remembered that he had promised to treat someone. He had been busy with various matters these past few days and had forgotten...

Thinking of this, Qin Mo said somewhat awkwardly, "Elder Li, how has your health been lately? Any discomfort?"

"Quite well. Ever since you treated me last time, young friend, I feel full of energy all over."

"That's good then! Elder Li, are you free today? Shall we head over to give you another treatment?"

"That would be great! Where are you? I'll have Weimin drive over to pick you up."

Qin Mo was suddenly a bit overwhelmed by the favor.

"No need, no need. Just give me the address, and we can drive there ourselves!"

Was he joking? Letting a big shot with four stars on his shoulders pick him up? How could he deserve such treatment...

The other end chuckled. "Young friend, you might not know, but where this old man lives isn't easy to enter. Outsiders likely won't be able to get in."

Qin Mo was stunned for a moment. Right, a place like where Elder Li lived would definitely be heavily guarded; he really might not be able to get in...

"Then... alright! I'm at..."

"Qin Mo! Let's go fishing!"

At that moment, Qin Mo's door was pushed open, and Murong Lanlan and Gu Mengmeng walked in with faces full of excitement.

Qin Mo said somewhat helplessly, "We can't go anywhere today. I have to go treat a big shot."

Gu Mengmeng looked at Qin Mo in shock. "You know how to treat illnesses?"

Qin Mo felt a bit smug upon hearing that.

"Let's go, we'll wait at the entrance!"

The two girls nodded and followed him with curious looks.

The group didn't wait long at the entrance before a black sedan slowly drove up.

A middle-aged man opened the car door and stepped out.

"Qin Mo!"

Li Weimin greeted him with a slight smile.

"Eldest Uncle? Why is it you?"

Gu Mengmeng looked at the newcomer in shock.

As soon as she spoke, Qin Mo and Murong Lanlan looked at Gu Mengmeng in surprise, clearly not expecting them to have this connection.

Li Weimin also looked at Gu Mengmeng with some surprise.

"Mengmeng, why are you here?"

"I'm at my Best Friend's house!"

"What a coincidence! I didn't expect you to know each other!"

Li Weimin laughed heartily.

"Qin Mo, you said you were going to treat a big shot... you don't mean my maternal grandfather, do you?"

Gu Mengmeng said with a face full of astonishment. Could it really be such a coincidence...

Qin Mo said helplessly, "Unless you have another maternal grandfather, I think so."

Neither Qin Mo nor Murong Lanlan expected that this quirky-looking girl before them would have such a powerful background...

"Hahaha... let's head over first. My father is getting impatient!"

Li Weimin laughed.

Then, everyone got into Li Weimin's sedan and headed toward the destination.

Along the way, Gu Mengmeng kept asking all sorts of questions.

Upon learning that her grandfather had actually encountered a robbery and later fainted, her face turned pale with fright. However, she breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that Qin Mo had treated him.

Consequently, Gu Mengmeng developed a strong curiosity about Qin Mo.

To her, Qin Mo was simply an omnipotent person, exuding an aura of mystery everywhere...

Li Weimin drove the sedan through many twists and turns, bringing everyone to a base surrounded by mountains.

After obtaining Li Weimin's consent, Qin Mo had opened the live stream early on.

After the group stepped out of the car, they were all stunned by the architectural scenery before them.

"Hehe... there's nothing much to see here. Let me take you to see my father!"

Li Weimin chuckled.

Then, the group followed Li Weimin through layers of security checks, heading toward the depths of the base.

"Holy crap! Is this something I'm allowed to see?"

"Brothers, what did I just see? Was that group of people in white coats just now scientific researchers?"

"Person above, no need to doubt, that's exactly what they were!"

"Is the Streamer trying to increase the intensity of my life because he thinks my first 18 years were too easy? Is this the kind of thing I'm allowed to see? I won't end up in jail, will I?"

"If I'm not mistaken, that impressive-looking hunk of iron just now should be the latest tank developed by our Dragon Kingdom, right?"

"If that hunk of iron hits you, won't you be covered in bruises?"

"Person above, if that hits you, forget bruises; if you can even find a single piece of yourself, you win!"

"Holy crap! I just saw a rocket bigger than the house I bought with a 5-million-yuan loan!"

"Brothers! The Streamer is a true brother! If there's something to see, he really brings us along!"

"Brothers, the Streamer has shown us all this. Shouldn't we give him something in return? I've decided! I'm bequeathing my 5-million-yuan loan to the Streamer!"

"Me too! I'm bequeathing the diapers I wore as a kid to the Streamer! Streamer, you have to treat them well! To be honest, I'm a bit reluctant; after all, I wore them for several years... I've grown attached..."

"You guys are stingier than the next. What kind of crap are you giving the Streamer? Even a dog wouldn't want it! Learn from me! Hehe... Brother Mo, I have two gigabytes of 'action movies' here, both domestic and foreign. Ahem... I'm bequeathing them to you. Brother Mo, take care of your health!"

"Streamer: I freaking thank you all..."

Looking at the bullet chat in the live stream, Qin Mo almost choked and passed away on the spot...

The loan thing was ridiculous enough, but freaking diapers you never changed? They must have a patina by now... You should keep them for your own descendants...

What made Qin Mo even more furious was: could you not talk about those two gigs of movies in the live stream? Don't you know how to private message? People who don't know any better will think I like watching that stuff...

...

Before long, the group finally arrived at a large courtyard.

The courtyard consisted only of simple tile-roofed houses. There were no luxury suites like Qin Mo had imagined; it was just simple and crude.

Yes, simple and crude! Qin Mo really couldn't imagine that someone of such high status would live in such a humble place.

"Dad! Qin Mo is here!"

Outside the courtyard, Li Weimin shouted.

Rustling sounds immediately came from inside, and after a short while, the main gate opened from within.

Elder Li walked out with a smile on his face.

"Young friend, you've really made this old man wait!"

"Grandpa!"

Before Qin Mo could speak, Gu Mengmeng excitedly grabbed one of the old man's arms.

"Mengmeng is here too."

Elder Li didn't seem surprised at all by Gu Mengmeng's arrival.

"Come on in, everyone!"

Elder Li stepped aside and gestured for everyone to come inside.
