Chapter 466: The Prime Minister
Chapter 466: The Prime Minister
Song Miqiu's clinic is doing exceptionally well, and she's so busy she can't keep up with the demand. Although she's very busy, she finds it fulfilling.
But Yu Huailin was unhappy with his behavior, and his expression turned very unpleasant.
"What's wrong? Who offended you?" Song Miqiu asked, somewhat puzzled, upon seeing Yu Huailin's expression.
Yu Huailin replied expressionlessly, "You."
"Me? Are you kidding me? We haven't even exchanged a few words in a while, how could I possibly offend you?"
Song Miqiu looked down at the book in her hand and said softly.
Yu Huailin chuckled lightly: "You know we haven't spoken in a long time? You've been so busy with the clinic lately that you haven't even noticed me."
"Aren't you perfectly fine? You don't need me to worry about you at all, do you?"
Song Miqiu knew that she had really neglected Yu Huailin during this period, so she smiled ingratiatingly.
“I feel that I am not as good as your clinic in your eyes, so you don’t care about me at all. Even if I leave now, you won’t care.”
Yu Huailin looked at Song Miqiu, his eyes full of dissatisfaction, and said loudly.
Song Miqiu was at a loss for words, so she could only walk up to Yu Huailin in a fawning manner and say with a smile.
"How could that be? The clinic's business has finally improved a bit, so naturally I want to run it well. That's why I neglected you. I'm sorry, please don't be angry."
"I have no idea whether what you're saying is true or false. The clinic is more important than me, the patients are more important than me, and in your eyes, everything is more important than me."
After speaking to Song Miqiu, Yu Huailin turned and left, intending to go about his own business.
Song Miqiu stood there, unsure how to catch up with Yu Huailin, and could only sigh.
After leaving Song Miqiu's courtyard, Yu Huailin hid in the shadows and then secretly appeared at the Prime Minister's residence.
The Prime Minister is a veteran of three reigns, and with his support, Yu Huailin has a great chance of success. Moreover, Yu Huailin's mother is the Prime Minister's sister.
He appeared directly in the main hall. The guards were frightened when they saw someone appear silently, but they still pointed their weapons at him.
"Who dares to trespass into the Prime Minister's residence? Do they have a death wish?"
Yu Huailin turned to look at the guards and said calmly, "I'm here to see the Prime Minister. Tell him that I'm here to see him, and he'll know."
The guards exchanged glances but made no move, completely assuming he was a bad guy.
"It's true. As long as you tell the Prime Minister, he will know who I am. I will not harm the Prime Minister."
Yu Huailin walked directly to a chair and sat down, speaking softly.
The guards frowned slightly at his calm demeanor, but finally nodded. Then they saw him go somewhere else.
At that moment, the Prime Minister was in his study when the guards told the steward about the matter.
The butler's eyes widened upon hearing this. While others might not know who Yu Huailin was, he certainly did. He immediately dismissed them and went into his study.
"Master, a man claims to be Yu Huailin and wishes to see you."
The butler bowed slightly and spoke softly.
The prime minister paused for a moment, and the ink from the tip of the brush dripped onto the paper, spreading out.
"He said his name was Yu Huailin?" The Prime Minister still couldn't believe it.
The steward nodded slightly: "That's what he said to the guards, and they were in the main hall right now. From what the guards said, he didn't seem nervous at all."
It doesn't seem like a scam, but it's always better to be cautious.
The Prime Minister had regained his composure. He looked down at the paper in front of him, then slowly began to write, speaking unhurriedly.
"Go and entertain him. I have things to take care of here. Tell him to wait a little while."
The steward nodded slightly upon hearing the Prime Minister's words, and then left.
The Prime Minister seemed completely unconcerned about this matter and continued to busy himself with his own affairs.
Yu Huailin sat in his chair, not in a hurry at all. When the messenger returned, he remained calm and didn't ask any questions.
A little while later, the butler came over. Upon seeing him, his eyes widened instantly. If he had been doubtful before, he was now certain.
However, he quickly regained his composure, because he was a knowledgeable person and knew about human skin masks; he couldn't be sure if the person in front of him was wearing one.
"Greetings, young master. This old servant is the steward of the Prime Minister's residence. My master is currently very busy, so please wait a moment."
The butler stepped forward, a smile on his face, and spoke softly.
Yu Huailin also stood up and nodded slightly to the steward: "No rush, I came to see the Prime Minister because I have something to discuss. However, since the Prime Minister is busy..."
"I can wait here without any problem, thank you for letting me know, housekeeper."
"Someone, prepare some tea and snacks for the young master," the steward said.
Yu Huailin said, "Thank you."
Then the butler asked Yu Huailin to sit down. After a while, someone brought tea and snacks, and then the place returned to peace.
Yu Huailin slowly picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then put it down. The whole movement was smooth and graceful, and it was quite pleasing to the eye.
However, it is clear from his actions that this person is no ordinary individual, and his aura is unmatched by others.
After an unknown amount of time, Yu Huailin finally looked at the butler, smiled slightly, and said nothing.
When the steward saw that he had noticed him, he chuckled and stepped forward, saying, "Please wait a moment, young master. This old servant will go and see if the master has finished his work."
Yu Huailin nodded slightly: "Thank you, butler."
The butler nodded slightly and then left, returning directly to his study.
Upon hearing the door open, the Prime Minister knew who it was and asked directly, "What? He can't even wait this short time?"
"Replying to your question, sir, that young master waited the whole time without saying a word. He only gave this old servant a faint glance before I came."
The steward bowed and addressed the Prime Minister.
The prime minister put down his pen, looked up at the steward, and asked, "What do you think?"
"Replying to your question, sir, it appears to be the young lady's child. However, the world is vast, and no one can truly know for sure, given that some people can disguise themselves."
"But judging from the young master's aura, this old servant thinks it's true," the steward said.
The Prime Minister stood up: "Since you say so, then I will go and see. I will only observe from the shadows. You go and speak to him."
The steward immediately understood the Prime Minister's meaning and hurriedly went outside.
Back in the main hall, Yu Huailin turned to look at him and said softly, "Please be patient, young master. The master's business is not yet finished."
"You'll need to wait a little longer, young master."
