MD 1000 to 1010

 

Miracle Doctor Chapter 1001

Su Luoying adjusted her position, lying face-down on the examination bed, her back to Ye Qiu.

Her curves were fully exposed.

While clearing her eight meridians earlier, the intense herbal potency had left Su Luoying feeling like she was in a furnace, her clothes soaked with sweat.

Lying down, her damp clothes clung tightly, faintly revealing her form.

It was undeniably alluring.

Ye Qiu’s breathing quickened briefly, his gaze lingering on her back for a couple of seconds.

“Cough, cough—”

Bai Bing’s cough snapped him back. He glanced at her, meeting her icy glare, as if warning him: Keep looking, and you’re done.

Ignoring it, Ye Qiu said softly, “Luoying, take off your clothes.”

Bai Bing’s eyes widened, itching to yank his ear.

“What treatment needs her to undress over and over?”

“Trying to make me jealous on purpose?”

“Hmph, you’re in for it, you jerk!”

Bai Bing fumed, feeling both sour and angry.

Su Luoying, unfazed this time, promptly removed her clothes after Ye Qiu’s request.

Her flawless back was revealed, gleaming like fine Jingdezhen porcelain.

Perfection itself.

Ye Qiu said, “The ninth blocked meridian is in the spine.”

“It’s the hardest to clear.”

“If we succeed, you’ll be fully healed, Luoying.”

Su Luoying replied, “Dr. Ye, I’m ready. Go ahead!”

Bai Bing frowned slightly.

Why did that sound… off?

Or was she overthinking?

Ye Qiu handed forty-nine five-inch gold needles to Bai Bing, “Sister Bing, disinfect these.”

Bai Bing took the needles and wiped them with alcohol swabs.

Meanwhile, Ye Qiu took a ten-centimeter piece of He Shou Wu, crushed it into powder, and mixed it with warm water, setting it aside without giving it to Su Luoying.

After Bai Bing finished disinfecting, Ye Qiu’s gaze settled on Su Luoying’s back. His hands moved, pressing down simultaneously.

“Hmm—”

The moment his hands touched her back, Su Luoying tensed, letting out a soft murmur.

Her back flushed pink, like peach blossoms ready to bloom.

“Don’t be nervous, it’s okay,” Ye Qiu said gently.

“Okay,” Su Luoying murmured, still shy.

Ye Qiu couldn’t dwell on it. His hands moved along her spine, pressing slowly from top to bottom.

Su Luoying, never this close to a man before, blushed deeply.

After a few minutes, Ye Qiu stopped and called, “Needle!”

Bai Bing handed him a disinfected needle.

Ye Qiu’s expression turned serious. Pinching the needle with his thumb and index finger, he rotated it slowly, inserting it into a spinal acupoint.

This needle took thirty seconds.

For other doctors, thirty seconds was fast, but for Ye Qiu, who could insert a needle in a second, it was slow.

“Needle!” he called again.

Bai Bing handed him another.

It took another thirty seconds for the second needle.

He placed eighteen needles this way.

From the nineteenth, his pace slowed further, each needle taking a full minute.

Seeing sweat on Ye Qiu’s forehead, Bai Bing felt a pang, took a tissue from her bag, and gently wiped his brow.

Time ticked by.

Twenty minutes later, forty-six needles lined Su Luoying’s spine from top to bottom.

Three remained.

“Luoying, adjust your position, lift up a bit,” Ye Qiu said.

She understood, lowering her waist, revealing two dimples.

Swish! Swish!

Ye Qiu struck like lightning, inserting two needles into her dimples.

“Okay, lie back down.”

She did.

“One last needle.”

Pinching the final needle, Ye Qiu took a deep breath and inserted it at the base of her spine.

All forty-nine needles were in place.

He handed her the water cup, “Drink this quickly.”

Su Luoying drank it in one go.

Three seconds later, she said, “Dr. Ye, I feel that heat again, in my dantian.”

Ye Qiu instructed, “Luoying, no matter what happens next, stay calm.”

Looking back at his serious expression, she smiled, “Dr. Ye, I trust you. Go for it!”

Ye Qiu gave a small smile.

Moments later, his face grew unprecedentedly grave. He swept his palm over the tails of the forty-nine needles.

Instantly, they hummed and trembled.

Then, Ye Qiu gripped her arms, channeling two streams of innate true qi into her body.

The qi surged to her dantian, flanking the herbal potency, then guided it into her spine.

The moment the potency hit her spine, Su Luoying trembled violently from pain.

Then—

“Roar—”

A deafening dragon’s cry rang out.

Bai Bing jumped, startled.

She saw a golden dragon shadow, over a meter long, burst from Ye Qiu’s crown, hovering above him, casting golden light that made him look divine.

This…

Bai Bing was stunned.

“Success or failure, we’ll know soon,” Ye Qiu said, his heart racing with tension.

With a wave, the innate true qi above him coiled around his arm.

His palm gently pressed Su Luoying’s back.

“Roar—”

Another dragon’s cry erupted as the qi left his arm, wrapping around the forty-nine needles.

In a flash, it entered her spine.

The moment it did, a massive, mysterious force surged from Su Luoying’s body, blasting Ye Qiu back.

Bang!

He crashed into the door.

At the same time, Su Luoying trembled violently, spitting blood.

“Ye Qiu, are you okay?” Bai Bing started toward him.

“Check Luoying’s condition!” Ye Qiu shouted urgently.

Bai Bing reached the bed just as Su Luoying’s head slumped.

Her heart sank.

She checked her pulse.

Her face paled as she said, “Ye Qiu, Luoying’s not breathing…”

Miracle Doctor Chapter 1002

Ye Qiu’s face changed drastically. He rushed to Su Luoying’s side and checked her pulse.

No breathing.

Bai Bing panicked, “Ye Qiu, is Su Luoying…?”

“I won’t let her die.” Ye Qiu swiftly took a gold needle and inserted it into her Baihui acupoint with lightning speed.

He propped her up, grabbed three more needles, and placed them in her chest.

After the four needles, he didn’t stop.

“Sister Bing, hold her.”

Bai Bing quickly supported Su Luoying’s shoulders.

Ye Qiu grasped two needles and inserted them into her temples simultaneously.

Six needles to revive!

After this, his right hand swept down her spine, retracting the forty-nine needles.

He pressed a palm to her forehead, frantically channeling inner energy into her body.

This lasted twenty minutes.

After twenty minutes, his inner energy was depleted.

He then channeled innate true qi into her.

Time passed slowly.

One minute.

Two minutes.

…

Ten minutes.

…

Fifteen minutes.

Finally, Su Luoying’s body reacted, trembling as black blood trickled from her mouth.

Moments later, she slowly opened her eyes.

Ye Qiu kept his hand in place.

Thirty minutes later, color returned to Su Luoying’s face. Ye Qiu withdrew his hand, his own face pale as paper.

“Luoying, how do you feel?” he asked.

“Much better. Thank you, Dr. Ye,” she said gratefully.

“Don’t thank me. I failed,” Ye Qiu said. “I couldn’t clear the ninth meridian.”

Su Luoying was stunned.

She thought he’d succeeded, not expecting this outcome.

Bai Bing could hardly believe it. She knew Ye Qiu’s skill—any complex case he took was resolved quickly.

Yet, he failed this time.

Su Luoying’s condition was clearly intricate.

“I owe you an apology. You nearly died because of me,” Ye Qiu said.

“Dr. Ye, don’t say that. You found a thousand-year-old herb and treated me. I’m already grateful.”

“It’s not your fault it didn’t work. It’s my fate.”

“Don’t blame yourself.”

Worried he’d feel guilty, Su Luoying added, “You cleared eight of nine blocked meridians. That’s incredible.”

“Since eight are cleared, does that mean I can live longer?”

Ye Qiu paused, then nodded, “Yes.”

Su Luoying smiled sweetly, thanking him again, “Thank you, Dr. Ye.”

“No need…”

Before he finished, his vision darkened, and he nearly collapsed.

Su Luoying instinctively opened her arms to catch him.

She was unclothed, and if she caught him, Bai Bing’s jealousy would erupt.

A strange scene unfolded.

As Ye Qiu fell forward, he twisted, landing in Bai Bing’s arms just before losing consciousness.

…

When Ye Qiu woke, sunlight filled the room.

“Awake? Need more rest?” Bai Bing sat by the bed, concerned.

“I’m fine.” Ye Qiu smiled, recognizing Jiangzhou Hospital’s VIP ward.

“How’s Luoying?” he asked.

“You’re in this state and still worrying about her? How important is she to you?” Bai Bing grumbled, then said, “Su Luoying’s fine. She’s working.”

Ye Qiu said, “Sister Bing, I need a favor. Arrange an expert clinic for Su Luoying, but limit her daily patients. Make sure she rests more.”

“Why?” Bai Bing asked, puzzled. “Her skills are top-notch. When you’re not in TCM, she’s the pillar.”

“She can’t overwork,” Ye Qiu said. “I didn’t tell her, but she doesn’t have much time left.”

“What?” Bai Bing froze. “Didn’t you clear eight meridians? You said she’d live longer…”

“I lied,” Ye Qiu admitted. “The treatment didn’t just fail—it was a complete disaster.”

“She had six months left originally. After clearing eight meridians, her chill is reduced, but her condition’s worse. She has three months now.”

“Overworking will hasten her death.”

Bai Bing asked gravely, “Why did it fail?”

Ye Qiu shook his head.

He didn’t understand.

At the final step, when success was near, why did a massive force surge from her body?

It not only threw him back but also dispersed the He Shou Wu’s potency, causing the failure.

“Alright, I’ll arrange it, reduce her workload,” Bai Bing said. “What about her condition…?”

“I’ll find a way,” Ye Qiu said. “She has three months. I’ll do everything to save her.”

“It’s my fault.”

“If not for me, she’d have had more time.”

“I won’t give up until the last moment.”

Seeing his guilt, Bai Bing comforted him, “You did your best. We’re doctors, not gods. As long as we give our all, we can face ourselves without shame.”

“By the way, Sister Bing, how long was I out?” Ye Qiu asked.

“You passed out last night, slept through it,” Bai Bing said, chiding, “You scared me to death.”

“I get you want to save people, but don’t push yourself so hard.”

“Take care of yourself. If something happened to you, what would I do?”

Ye Qiu grinned, “Don’t worry, Sister Bing, I know my limits.”

“Limits? And you fainted?” Bai Bing retorted. “Today, you’re staying here, doing nothing, just recovering.”

“Is that necessary?” Ye Qiu said wryly. “I’m fine now.”

“I don’t care. You’re staying put,” Bai Bing insisted firmly.

Ye Qiu’s eyes flickered, “Sister Bing, really nothing at all?”

“Fine, I won’t do anything else.”

“But what about you?”

Miracle Doctor Chapter 1003

After hearing Ye Qiu’s words, Bai Bing’s face flushed. She stood up quickly and said, “You’re staying here to rest today. No going anywhere.”

“I’ve got work to handle.”

“I’m leaving.”

Just then, Ye Qiu grabbed her right hand and pulled her toward him.

“Ah!”

Bai Bing yelped, losing balance, and fell onto the hospital bed.

Before she could react, Ye Qiu flipped over, pinning her down.

Blushing and flustered, Bai Bing snapped, “Ye Qiu, what are you doing?”

“Let me go.”

“This is a hospital ward!”

“What’s wrong with a ward?” Ye Qiu grinned cheekily. “Sister Bing, did you miss me?”

“Miss you? Let me go!” she said urgently.

Instead of releasing her, Ye Qiu kissed her neck. Soon, Bai Bing’s face was rosy, her eyes almost misty.

But she held onto her senses.

“Ye Qiu, don’t mess around. This is a VIP ward. If someone sees us, we’re in trouble,” she said.

“Sister Bing, since when did you get so timid?” Ye Qiu chuckled. “Don’t worry, no one can sneak up without me noticing.”

She added, “You just woke up. Your body’s not recovered.”

Ye Qiu smirked, “Wanna test if my body’s recovered?”

“No, Ye Qiu…”

“Don’t call my name. Call me husband.”

Ye Qiu’s tone turned commanding.

Bai Bing pleaded, “Husband, please, not here, okay? If you really want to, let’s go home.”

“Sister Bing, you don’t get it. Home’s vibe is different from here.”

With that, Ye Qiu made his move.

Bai Bing resisted halfheartedly.

As passion peaked, Ye Qiu pulled the blanket over them.

A sweet battle ensued…

Afterward, Bai Bing lay in Ye Qiu’s arms, murmuring, “You’re too good to Su Luoying, going all the way to Wudang Mountain for a thousand-year-old herb.”

“Sister Bing, still jealous?” Ye Qiu laughed helplessly. “You should take a page from Sister Lin.”

“Learn from her? She’s a vixen, oozing charm head to toe,” Bai Bing said, glaring. “Husband, what’s that supposed to mean?”

“Are you saying I’m not as good as Lin Jingzhi?”

“Or that I’m not as open-minded as her?”

Ye Qiu quickly clarified, “Sister Bing, you and Sister Lin are equally big-hearted.”

Bai Bing caught the sly smirk on his lips, realizing his double entendre, and pinched his waist hard.

“Ow, ow, Sister Bing, let go!”

“Hmph, that’s for being naughty.”

“You don’t like me naughty?”

“No.”

“Oh, come on, you were just asking me to…”

“Shut up!” Bai Bing cut him off, blushing, threatening, “Say it, and I’ll rip your mouth off.”

“Wow, threatening your man now? Guess the old saying’s true—three days without a lesson, and a woman climbs the roof.”

Ye Qiu smacked her hip.

“Ah!” Bai Bing yelped in pain.

“Need to teach you a lesson, or you’ll go wild, huh?”

Smack!

Another swat.

Bai Bing’s eyes teared up, glaring at him, aggrieved.

“Still gonna threaten me?”

“No,” she mumbled.

“That’s better.” Ye Qiu felt smug, like he’d won a victory.

Women, like kids, need discipline—either they obey, or you end up kneeling on durians.

His triumph lasted three seconds.

“Ye Qiu, you dared hit me? Fine! Very good!”

“I’m not going to work today.”

“I’m getting revenge. You’ll see what I’m capable of.”

Bai Bing pounced like a hungry wolf.

Bring it on—who’s scared?

They tangled again, ready to “hurt” each other, when—

Beep, beep, beep!

Bai Bing’s phone rang urgently.

“Hold on, I need to take this.”

Panting, she grabbed her phone, seeing it was Li Ju, the head of Jiangzhou’s healthcare authority. She signaled Ye Qiu to stay quiet.

She answered, “Director Li, you’re looking for me?”

“Dean Bai, hello. Higher-ups want to visit Jiangzhou Hospital. Is that convenient?”

“Very convenient,” Bai Bing said. “When are they coming?”

Li Ju replied, “Today, already on their way. About half an hour to the hospital. Make arrangements.”

“Got it.”

Hanging up, Bai Bing pushed Ye Qiu away as he tried to start trouble again.

“The higher-ups are coming to inspect. As dean, I have to greet them,” she said.

“Can’t you go later?” Ye Qiu, still in the mood, pleaded, “Just one hour with me.”

Bai Bing shook her head, “No, they’ll be here in thirty minutes.”

Ye Qiu looked deflated.

Bai Bing dressed quickly, took out a compact mirror, and applied lipstick. “Wait here for me.”

“Once I’m done, we’ll go home.”

“I learned some new dishes to cook for you.”

Mwah!

She kissed his cheek. “Husband, remember, no going anywhere today. Stay here like a good boy.”

“See you later.”

Waving, Bai Bing left the ward.

Alone on the bed, Ye Qiu grew bored and started mulling over Su Luoying’s case.

“Strange. With a thousand-year-old herb and my skills, why did it fail?”

“Especially at the end—where did that massive force in her body come from?”

“To cure her, a thousand-year herb isn’t enough. I need another way.”

“What can resolve her Nine Yin Severed Meridians?”

Ye Qiu frowned, deep in thought.

Ding!

His phone pinged with a WeChat message.

From Lin Jingzhi.

Opening it, he saw her ask, “Husband, where were you last night? Why didn’t you come find me?”

Ye Qiu replied, “Had an issue at the hospital.”

Lin Jingzhi asked, “When are you coming to see me? I’m at the company.”

Ye Qiu typed, “Did the deal with Xu Group close?”

Lin Jingzhi answered, “Almost, just waiting to sign the contract.”

“Husband, come quick.”

“I’m waiting in my office~”

Ding!

Another message—a photo.

Ye Qiu’s eyes widened.

Long legs.

Black…

Stockings!

Miracle Doctor Chapter 1004

Ye Qiu jolted, immediately called Xiao Zhan, and slipped out of the hospital room.

When Ye Qiu stepped out, Xiao Zhan was already waiting.

“Give me the car. Take a cab back,” Ye Qiu instructed, then drove straight to Lin Jingzhi’s company.

…

Lin Group.

Conference room.

It was packed.

Today was the first meeting between Lin Group and Xu Group executives, and they were deep in heated talks about a partnership.

Lin Jingzhi sat at the head of the table.

While listening to the executives, she texted Ye Qiu under the table.

Xu Minghui, Xu Group’s general manager, sat beside her, stealing glances at her.

Suddenly, he noticed her lift her skirt, revealing her stockinged legs, and snap a photo with her phone.

Gulp!

Xu Minghui’s heart raced, swallowing hard.

“No wonder they call her Lin the Enchantress. She’s a real siren.”

“If I could marry her, I’d be the luckiest man alive.”

“I have to have her!”

With that thought, he pulled out his phone and sent a quick message.

Ten minutes later, he got a reply and said, “President Lin, we’ve covered most of the partnership details. Let’s wrap up for today.”

“I’ll notify our legal team to draft the contract as soon as I’m back at the hotel.”

“Your pharmaceutical company’s opening tomorrow, right? How about we sign the contract at the ceremony?”

Lin Jingzhi agreed readily, “Sounds good.”

Xu Minghui stood, extending his right hand with a smile, “President Lin, here’s to a fruitful partnership.”

Lin rose, shaking his hand lightly, smiling back, “To a great partnership.”

She turned to Sun Mengjiao, “Mengjiao, arrange transport to take President Xu and his team back to their hotel.”

“Yes, ma’am,” Sun Mengjiao gestured to Xu, “President Xu, this way.”

Xu Minghui glanced at Sun, thinking: She’s pretty too, but too cold for my taste.

He checked his Patek Philippe watch and lingered, “President Lin, it’s almost lunchtime. How about lunch together?”

“Sorry, President Xu, I’ve got company matters…”

Xu cut her off, “President Lin, work never ends, but as they say, you can’t work on an empty stomach.”

“Besides, this is a chance for our teams to bond and get to know each other, which will help our future collaboration.”

“What do you say?”

He grinned at her, confident his reasoning was airtight.

Sure enough, after a brief pause, Lin said, “Alright, let’s have lunch together.”

“Mengjiao, call the hotel manager and book the best private room.”

“Tell them I’m hosting President Xu and the executives today.”

“Yes, ma’am,” Sun replied.

“President Xu, after you.”

Lin led Xu Minghui and the executives out of the meeting room.

As they stepped outside the company, they saw a crowd gathered, many snapping photos with their phones.

It looked like a celebrity sighting.

Lin looked up and saw, thirty meters away, countless roses blocking the driveway.

Tens of thousands, at least.

The roses were arranged in a heart shape, surrounded by well-dressed young men and women holding colorful balloons.

Lin realized instantly: someone was proposing.

“Don’t know who the lucky girl is. So jealous,” Sun Mengjiao whispered.

Lin smiled.

Such a grand proposal would make any woman envious.

Sun added, “President Lin, the roses are blocking the drive. I’ll ask them to move them.”

“No, don’t interrupt their moment,” Lin said. “Mengjiao, arrange cars. We’ll use the underground garage.”

“Got it,” Sun nodded, about to leave.

“Wait!” Xu Minghui called her back.

Sun looked puzzled, “President Xu…?”

Xu smiled, strode to the center of the rose heart, and shed his black suit jacket.

Underneath, he wore a white shirt and vest, his handsome features making him look like a prince.

He adjusted his collar, then gazed at Lin Jingzhi with deep affection.

Lin’s expression shifted, sensing his intent: “Is he about to…?”

Thud!

Xu dropped to one knee, flashing a charming smile, and declared loudly:

“They say it takes five hundred glances in a past life for a fleeting encounter in this one. Can I trade lifetimes of encounters for a lifetime with you?”

“I don’t know if our meeting is a continuation from a past life or a fresh start today. All I know is I can’t live without you.”

“I want you as my wife, to cherish you forever.”

“Lin Jingzhi, I love you!”

“Will you marry me?”

He pulled a box from his pocket, revealing a ten-carat diamond ring, sparkling in the sunlight.

The crowd erupted in gasps and screams, especially the women, green with envy. A proposal like this, and they’d say yes in a heartbeat.

Someone recognized Xu Minghui.

“My God, he’s Xu Group’s general manager!”

“Not just that—he’s the heir to the Xu family in Beijing!”

“Rich, young, handsome—a perfect dream guy.”

“Too bad he’s not proposing to me.”

“If he proposed to me, I’d marry him!”

Xu’s executives started chanting, “Get together!”

“Get together!”

“Get together!”

Xu’s smile widened.

His real goal in Jiangzhou wasn’t the partnership—it was proposing to Lin Jingzhi.

Marry her, and the Lin Group deal would follow naturally.

Better yet, her company would be his.

“Xu Minghui’s out of line,” Sun Mengjiao muttered, glancing at Lin’s icy face. “President Lin, what now?”

Lin snorted, about to respond, when suddenly—

Miracle Doctor Chapter 1005

A sudden roar of an engine cut through the air.

A black Mercedes sped toward the scene like a bolt of lightning.

“Ah!”

The crowd screamed, scattering in panic.

But the Mercedes didn’t aim for the people—it plowed straight through the roses.

Not satisfied, it reversed, tires grinding over the flowers repeatedly.

In moments, tens of thousands of roses were reduced to a mangled mess.

Then, with a flashy drift, the car swept past Xu Minghui, splashing sewage onto his head, face, and white shirt.

In an instant, the dashing prince was a bedraggled mess.

The Mercedes stopped in front of Lin Jingzhi.

The door opened.

Ye Qiu stepped out, grinning, “Sister Lin, I’m not late, am I?”

“Not at all.” Lin Jingzhi smiled.

Even Sun Mengjiao, usually wary of Ye Qiu, gave him a small smile, finding his stunt deeply satisfying.

Xu Minghui’s eyes burned with venom as he saw Ye Qiu.

Why does this guy always ruin my plans?

He clenched his fists, itching to punch Ye Qiu’s face.

But he relaxed them quickly.

As much as he wanted to deal with Ye Qiu, the proposal was his priority.

Nothing mattered more than winning Lin Jingzhi!

Revenge? A mere doctor could be crushed easily later.

Xu Minghui shifted his gaze back to Lin Jingzhi, continuing his heartfelt plea, “Jingzhi, I’m not good with sweet talk. I just want to be with you.”

“If you say yes, from now on, you’re my everything.”

“I’ll protect you with my life, give you happiness.”

“I dream of a warm home where I can see you anytime. Jingzhi, be the queen of that home!”

Pfft—

Ye Qiu burst out laughing, “Sister Lin, who’s this clown?”

Lin Jingzhi replied, “He’s Xu Minghui, general manager of Xu Group.”

“Oh?” Ye Qiu’s eyes flickered with surprise. Turning to Xu Minghui, he said, “Have you been watching too many cheesy dramas?”

“Spouting such cliché lines?”

“Cringe much?”

Xu Minghui shot Ye Qiu a cold look, “Kid, I suggest you stay out of this, or I won’t let you off.”

“Scram!”

“Fine, I’ll scram,” Ye Qiu said. “Sister Lin, let’s go.”

“Mm.” Lin Jingzhi nodded, following him.

“Stop!” Xu Minghui rushed to block her, kneeling again, holding out the ring with a pleading tone, “Jingzhi, marry me, please?”

Ye Qiu’s patience wore thin, “President Xu, have some self-awareness. Don’t make a fool of yourself.”

Xu Minghui glared, “What’s that supposed to mean?”

Ye Qiu said, “Sister Lin’s a woman you’ll never win. Give up already!”

“How do you know I can’t win her?”

Xu Minghui countered, “Even if Jingzhi says no now, I believe if I never give up, my sincerity will move her one day…”

“President Xu!” Lin Jingzhi cut him off, her voice icy, “Get up before you embarrass yourself further.”

Xu Minghui shook his head, “Jingzhi, if you don’t accept my proposal, I’ll kneel here forever.”

The onlookers, especially the girls, were moved to tears.

“So touching!”

“Xu’s such a devoted man!”

“If a guy did this for me, I’d marry him!”

“President Lin’s got to say yes now, right?”

But Lin Jingzhi’s expression grew colder.

“Xu Minghui, if you like kneeling, stay there!”

She grabbed Ye Qiu’s arm and walked away.

Xu Minghui was stunned.

He was Xu Group’s general manager, and Lin Group needed this deal. How could she give him no face?

This was in public!

“Jingzhi, you can’t leave.”

He stood, blocking her path again, “Jingzhi, I prepared so long for this proposal. You can’t just walk away.”

“Jingzhi, I really like you.”

“Jingzhi, I…”

“Xu Minghui, if I recall, this is our first meeting, right?” Lin Jingzhi said, “Proposing the first time we meet? Who gave you the nerve?”

“Love!” Xu Minghui said earnestly, “Love gave me courage!”

Lin Jingzhi laughed in disbelief, “You know nothing about love!”

Xu Minghui tried, “Jingzhi, listen to me…”

Ye Qiu was fed up. If not for the business deal, he’d have acted sooner. He growled, “Good dogs don’t block the way. Move!”

Xu Minghui, already resentful, exploded when Ye Qiu called him a dog, “Watch your mouth!”

“I’m talking to Jingzhi. What’s it to you?”

“Get lost now—”

Slap!

Ye Qiu’s palm cracked across Xu Minghui’s face.

The crowd gasped, silence falling.

“You hit me?” Xu Minghui clutched his chest, glaring, “Do you know who I am?”

“I do,” Ye Qiu said, “You’re Xu Group’s general manager, your dad’s the chairman, and you’re heir to the Xu family in Beijing.”

“And you still hit me?”

“Why wouldn’t I?”

Xu Minghui stared at Ye Qiu like he was insane, “You’re a dead man for touching me.”

Ye Qiu scoffed, “Do you know who I am?”

“I do. You’re just a small-time doctor, no big deal…”

“I’m Ye Qiu, master of the Dragon Gate!”

What?

“And also, Sister Lin is my woman.”

Ye Qiu wrapped an arm around Lin Jingzhi’s waist. She leaned into him, beaming with joy.

“You’re the Xu heir, yet you didn’t even check who I am before picking a fight. You’re the one who’s done for.”

Slap!

Another smack landed on Xu Minghui’s face. Ye Qiu taunted, “I’m hitting you. What can you do?”

Xu Minghui clutched his chest, speechless for a long moment.

“If you harass Sister Lin again, I’ll send you to hell,” Ye Qiu warned, then led Lin Jingzhi away with her hand in his.

Xu Minghui stood frozen, only snapping out of it after a while.

“I swear, I’ll make you pay!”

Clenching his fists, he growled through gritted teeth, “Lin Jingzhi, you’ll regret this!”

Miracle Doctor Chapter 1006

French restaurant.

Ye Qiu and Lin Jingzhi sat in a corner, and though it was noon, the dim lighting created a particularly romantic atmosphere.

“Have you ever eaten French food before?” Lin Jingzhi asked.

Ye Qiu shook his head, “I’m not too fond of Western cuisine.”

Lin Jingzhi smiled, “Darling, you need to learn from me on this, be brave and try new things, like how I love experimenting with new styles.”

After saying this, Lin Jingzhi winked at Ye Qiu.

Ye Qiu was momentarily speechless.

How could something so serious sound so suggestive coming from Lin Jie?

“Why didn’t you come to me last night?”

Lin Jingzhi said with a resentful look, “I waited for you half the night, thinking you’d come back, and even prepared some sexy nightwear.”

“Who knew you’d have the heart to leave me alone in an empty room.”

Ye Qiu explained, “Last night, I was at the hospital treating Su Luoying’s condition.”

Oh?

Lin Jingzhi’s interest was piqued, and she asked, “How did you treat her? Don’t tell me you…”

“No, no,” Ye Qiu quickly clarified, “It was purely medical treatment.”

“I failed.”

“Su Luoying only has three months left.”

Lin Jingzhi was stunned.

Clearly, she hadn’t expected Ye Qiu to fail.

Seeing Ye Qiu’s low spirits, Lin Jingzhi quickly took his hand and said gently, “You’re a doctor, dealing with all sorts of complicated cases, it’s normal to fail once in a while.”

“After all, we’re only human, not gods.”

“But I believe, even if Su Luoying only has three months left, you’ll definitely find a way to save her.”

“Darling, keep going!”

After Lin Jingzhi’s comforting words, Ye Qiu’s mood improved slightly, and he said gratefully, “Lin Jie, thank you for your encouragement.”

Lin Jingzhi gave a charming smile, “This is nothing, the real encouragement will come after lunch when we’re back at the office.”

During the meal.

Ye Qiu asked, “Lin Jie, have you signed the contract with the Xu Group?”

“Not yet,” Lin Jingzhi replied, “Xu Minghui said they’ll sign it tomorrow at the company’s opening ceremony.”

Ye Qiu cautioned, “After Xu Minghui’s antics today, there might be some complications with the collaboration.”

Lin Jingzhi cursed, “I don’t know if Xu Minghui’s brain was kicked by a donkey, proposing to me out of nowhere, I really don’t know what he was thinking.”

Ye Qiu said, “Xu Minghui’s brain isn’t exactly sharp, he didn’t even bother to investigate my identity before proposing to you, typical second-generation rich kid.”

“By the way, Lin Jie, I met Xu Minghui yesterday and gave him a beating.”

“He showed up at our TCM department, harassing Su Luoying, forbidding doctors from treating patients, and stopping patients from getting care, I happened to catch him in the act.”

Lin Jingzhi responded, “That’s why I’ve always looked down on these so-called elite heirs.”

“They come from noble backgrounds, but most of them only know how to indulge in debauchery, bully others with their status, and achieve nothing.”

“Actually, if they wanted, they could do something truly beneficial for the country and its people.”

Ye Qiu said, “Yet it’s precisely these people who are born at the peak of life, a height ordinary people can’t reach even after a lifetime of hard work.”

“They lack for nothing, receive the best education from childhood, and enjoy the finest resources.”

“And yet, what do they do with it?”

“There are a few exceptions, like Bai Yujing, that guy’s got something about him, but sadly, he’s gone down the wrong path, and he’s straying further every day.”

Lin Jingzhi said, “Alright, let’s not talk about this.”

“Darling, hurry up and eat.”

“After we’re done, we’ll go back to the company for some serious business.”

As Lin Jingzhi spoke, she deliberately stretched one foot under the table to Ye Qiu’s instep, slowly moving upward.

Suddenly, Ye Qiu grabbed Lin Jingzhi’s calf, holding it playfully in his hand.

After the meal.

Lin Jingzhi took Ye Qiu back to the company.

As they reached the door of the president’s office, Sun Mengjie approached and reported, “President Lin, the lunch meeting with the Xu Group executives has been cancelled.”

Lin Jingzhi smiled, “As expected, Xu Minghui got beaten by Ye Qiu, where would he find the face to have lunch?”

Sun Mengjie said, “I’m worried there might be issues with the Xu Group collaboration.”

“No need to worry, we’ll watch how it plays out,” Lin Jingzhi said, pulling Ye Qiu inside and instructing Sun Mengjie, “Unless something urgent comes up this afternoon, don’t disturb me.”

“I want some alone time with Ye Qiu.”

“Yes,” Sun Mengjie replied, watching Ye Qiu and Lin Jingzhi enter the office with a complicated look in her eyes.

Inside the office.

Lin Jingzhi locked the door, then wrapped her arms around Ye Qiu’s neck, kissing him passionately.

Ye Qiu couldn’t resist and responded eagerly.

They held each other tightly.

As the flames of passion grew stronger.

Lin Jingzhi suddenly pushed Ye Qiu away, grabbed the remote from the desk, and pressed a button, causing the curtains to slowly close.

“Darling, wait for me on the sofa.”

Lin Jingzhi said before pushing open the door to a room inside the office, disappearing for some reason.

Ye Qiu waited a few minutes before Lin Jingzhi emerged from the room.

She had changed her outfit.

Lin Jingzhi had shed her professional attire and was now wearing a pink maid outfit, complete with bunny ears on her head and her hair tied into twin tails, looking playful and adorable.

At the same time.

She had removed her stockings, revealing long, slender legs that, paired with the very short skirt, sparked the imagination.

Ye Qiu’s eyes widened.

Lin Jingzhi twirled in front of Ye Qiu, then leaned against the desk, slightly tilting her body to showcase her devilish figure to perfection.

Not only that, she placed a finger in her mouth, biting it lightly with her teeth, looking at Ye Qiu with seductive eyes.

Feigning shyness.

“Darling, do you like it?”

Ye Qiu nodded, quickly standing up from the sofa, but before he could move, Lin Jingzhi pushed him back down.

Ye Qiu looked puzzled, “Lin Jie, what are you…”

Lin Jingzhi said earnestly, “Darling, you’re so tired every day, it breaks my heart.”

“Today, let your servant play the role of a maid and take good care of you.”

With that, Lin Jingzhi knelt in front of the sofa, leaned forward, and gently began removing Ye Qiu’s shoes.

Then his belt, his clothes…

Soon, Ye Qiu was stripped bare.

Lin Jingzhi began kissing Ye Qiu’s body gently, each touch as light as a dragonfly skimming water, fleeting and delicate.

Ye Qiu leaned back on the sofa, letting Lin Jingzhi take charge.

Lin Jingzhi, like a devoted servant, served Ye Qiu with utmost care.

Before long, Ye Qiu couldn’t hold back and tried to take the initiative, but Lin Jingzhi stopped him.

“Darling, don’t move~”

Miracle Doctor Chapter 1007

Five o’clock in the afternoon.

Lin Jingzhi and Ye Qiu had just stepped out of the office when they ran into Sun Mengjie hurrying towards them.

“Bad news, President Lin, something’s happened,” Sun Mengjie said with a grave expression.

“What’s happened?” Lin Jingzhi asked.

Sun Mengjie replied, “I just got word that several media outlets won’t be attending our company’s opening ceremony tomorrow.”

“What’s the reason?” Lin Jingzhi asked.

Sun Mengjie said, “They didn’t specify, but I found out that these media outlets have close ties with the Xu Group.”

Lin Jingzhi pressed, “How many media outlets are pulling out?”

“Seven,” Sun Mengjie answered. “We invited twenty-seven media outlets in total, and seven have said they’re not coming.”

Hmph!

Lin Jingzhi gave a cold snort, “If they’re not coming, so be it. Who cares? We still have twenty media outlets.”

Ye Qiu, standing nearby, remarked, “I bet Xu Minghui is behind this.”

Lin Jingzhi instructed Sun Mengjie, “Have the PR department double-check later and confirm how many media outlets and guests will actually show up for tomorrow’s opening ceremony.”

“Make sure it’s clarified today.”

“If we wait until tomorrow and something goes wrong, we’ll be caught off guard.”

Sun Mengjie nodded, “Got it.”

“Darling, let’s go home,” Lin Jingzhi said, linking her arm with Ye Qiu’s as they left the company.

Back at the villa.

Ye Qiu personally cooked a few dishes for Lin Jingzhi.

After dinner.

Lin Jingzhi asked, “Darling, haven’t you gone to see Wan Jie in a while?”

“Yeah,” Ye Qiu said. “You know I’ve been swamped lately, I haven’t had time for Wan Jie.”

Lin Jingzhi said seriously, “Find some time to visit Wan Jie, she’s been really unwell lately.”

“What’s wrong with Wan Jie?” Ye Qiu asked.

Lin Jingzhi’s face darkened as she said, “She’s close to dying.”

What!

Ye Qiu’s heart jolted, and he hurriedly asked, “What’s happened to Wan Jie?”

“Last time I saw her, she was perfectly fine.”

“How did this…”

Lin Jingzhi sighed faintly, “If you don’t go see Wan Jie soon, she’ll wither away.”

Ye Qiu: “…”

Lin Jingzhi chuckled, “Wan Jie misses you a lot, she’s been asking me what you’re up to lately. She doesn’t dare call you, afraid of disturbing you. Go see her when you have time.”

“I’ll go find her now,” Ye Qiu said, starting to leave.

Lin Jingzhi quickly grabbed his arm, saying, “You’re not going anywhere, I’m not full yet.”

“What? You ate so much just now and you’re still not full?” Ye Qiu said. “Lin Jie, how about I make you a bowl of noodles?”

“I don’t want noodles, I want you.”

Lin Jingzhi’s eyes shimmered with desire, her teeth lightly biting her lower lip as she deliberately pressed her body against Ye Qiu.

At the same time, her hands roamed restlessly over Ye Qiu’s body.

Ye Qiu, being a young man full of vigor, couldn’t withstand Lin Jingzhi’s teasing. A fire surged within him, and he scooped her up, rushing upstairs.

Without a doubt.

Another storm of passion ensued.

Only when they were utterly exhausted did they collapse into each other’s arms and fall into a deep sleep.

Late at night.

*Knock knock~*

A sudden knock at the door startled Ye Qiu awake.

He glanced over and saw Lin Jingzhi sleeping soundly.

Not wanting to wake her, Ye Qiu carefully got out of bed, opened the door, and saw Sun Mengjie standing outside.

“Where’s President Lin?” Sun Mengjie said. “I need to speak with her.”

Shh!

Ye Qiu made a hushing gesture and whispered, “Lin Jie’s asleep.”

Sun Mengjie looked anxious, “Wake her up quick, something’s happened.”

Ye Qiu stepped out, closed the door, and led Sun Mengjie to the end of the hallway, asking, “What’s happened?”

Sun Mengjie said, “Our pharmaceutical company’s opening is tomorrow, right? We invited twenty-seven media outlets, but now none of them are coming.”

“Is that all?” Ye Qiu laughed. “I thought it was something serious.”

“How is this not serious?” Sun Mengjie, seeing Ye Qiu’s nonchalant attitude, said angrily, “These twenty-seven media outlets are authorities in the pharmaceutical industry. If none of them show up, we’ll be humiliated tomorrow.”

“Not only that, the dozens of guests we invited started making excuses and pulling out just half an hour ago.”

A cold glint flashed in Ye Qiu’s eyes. No need to guess, this was definitely Xu Minghui’s doing.

“What kind of guests were invited?” Ye Qiu asked.

Sun Mengjie replied, “Some are CEOs of pharmaceutical companies, others are prominent social figures.”

Ye Qiu said, “If they’re not coming, we’ll find others.”

“The company’s opening is tomorrow, how can we find new guests in time?” Sun Mengjie said. “Ye Qiu, go wake up President Lin, she needs to know about this.”

“We have to come up with a solution immediately.”

“Otherwise, tomorrow’s opening with no media or guests will make us a laughingstock in the industry.”

Ye Qiu shook his head, “No need to bother Lin Jie over something this small. Media and guests? I’ll handle it.”

“Ye Qiu, you don’t understand!” Sun Mengjie said. “The guests we invited weren’t just for the opening ceremony, they were also going to sign contracts with our company during the event.”

“In other words, they’d bring orders to our company.”

“Preliminary estimates suggest at least ten billion in orders.”

“Think about it, ten billion in orders on the opening day, what a sensation that would create.”

“Go wake up President Lin, we need to figure this out together.”

Ye Qiu said, “Lin Jie’s exhausted today, let her rest.”

“As for the media, guests, and orders, I’ll take care of it.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t let Lin Jie be embarrassed tomorrow.”

Sun Mengjie looked skeptical, “Ye Qiu, are you sure you can handle this?”

“Trust me,” Ye Qiu said. “Lin Jie’s problems are my problems, I won’t let her become a laughingstock.”

“Fine, but if you let President Lin down tomorrow, I won’t let you off,” Sun Mengjie said sternly before turning to leave.

“Oh, by the way,” Ye Qiu suddenly called out.

Sun Mengjie paused and looked back at him, “What?”

Ye Qiu asked, “Xiao Jie, have you been eating papaya lately?”

“How did you know?” Sun Mengjie asked, puzzled.

Ye Qiu glanced at her chest and grinned, “I can tell.”

Sun Mengjie’s face flushed red, and she shot Ye Qiu a fierce glare, “Pervert!”

Ye Qiu wasn’t fazed and said with a smile, “Xiao Jie, dietary supplements are fine, but they take too long to work.”

“The fastest and most effective method is actually massage.”

“If you need help, you can come to me.”

“You know I’m always happy to lend a hand…”

“Shut up!” Sun Mengjie glared at him again before storming off downstairs.

Ye Qiu chuckled, returned to the room, picked up his phone, and started sending messages one by one.

Miracle Doctor Chapter 1008

Meanwhile.

In the presidential suite of a luxury hotel in Jiangzhou, Xu Minghui, dressed in a bathrobe, held a glass of red wine and sat on the living room sofa, watching television.

Utterly relaxed.

Ding dong.

The doorbell suddenly rang.

Come in.

As soon as Xu Minghui spoke, the door opened, and a bodyguard stepped inside.

Young Master, finding a somewhat famous actress in a place like Jiangzhou is too difficult.

I searched for ages and found nothing.

But I contacted an actress filming in Hengdian. She’s a bit pricey, and we need to cover her round-trip airfare.

Xu Minghui chuckled, No matter, as long as she keeps me entertained. When does she arrive?

She’s already here, the bodyguard said. Young Master, shall I bring her in now?

Yes, Xu Minghui nodded.

The bodyguard quickly stepped out.

Five minutes later.

The bodyguard returned with a young woman.

She had wavy hair, a tall figure, and wore a short skirt that revealed swathes of skin and long, smooth legs.

But her eyes were covered with a black blindfold.

Why are her eyes covered? Xu Minghui asked, puzzled.

The bodyguard explained, Young Master, it’s safer this way. She won’t know your identity, and when the lights are off, you can even pretend she’s Lin Jingzhi.

Xu Minghui’s eyes lit up, and he gave the bodyguard an approving look, saying, Well done.

When we get back, I’ll promote you to head of security.

And I’ll triple your salary.

The bodyguard immediately bowed to Xu Minghui, saying gratefully, Thank you, Young Master, thank you.

Xu Minghui waved his hand.

The bodyguard understood, quickly guiding the woman to sit beside Xu Minghui.

Xu Minghui didn’t hold back, wrapping his arm around her waist and letting his hands wander.

How’s the task I gave you coming along? Xu Minghui asked the bodyguard.

The bodyguard grinned, Young Master, rest assured, I’ve handled everything as you instructed.

The Lin Group originally contacted over twenty media outlets. After my calls, they’ve all said they won’t attend the Lin Group’s opening ceremony tomorrow.

Not only that, dozens of guests won’t be showing up either.

Young Master, just wait for the show.

Xu Minghui sneered, Damn it, acting all high and mighty just because she’s got some looks.

Lin Jingzhi, oh Lin Jingzhi, I’d love to see how you handle tomorrow with not a single guest there.

By the way, how’s the other task I gave you?

The bodyguard replied, I found two people on the dark web, but their price is steep, fifty million each, so one hundred million for both.

Xu Minghui said, As long as they can take out Ye Qiu, a hundred million is nothing.

The bodyguard added, Young Master, they’re asking for US dollars.

A flash of anger crossed Xu Minghui’s eyes, Damn, just to kill one person, and they want that much?

The bodyguard explained, Young Master, you may not know, but Ye Qiu is the master of Dragon Gate, highly skilled, so the price is much higher than for an ordinary person.

But those two aren’t pushovers either, they’ve assassinated foreign heads of state.

Young Master, here’s my thinking: if they can really take out Ye Qiu, a hundred million is worth it.

The only reason Lin Jingzhi rejected you is because Ye Qiu’s backing her. Once he’s gone, she’ll definitely accept you.

After all, no matter how capable a woman is, she still needs a man to keep her company, right?

The bodyguard smirked, then continued, Young Master, think about it, a hundred million not only gets rid of Ye Qiu and wins you Lin Jingzhi, but also her company, it’s like hitting three birds with one stone.

I think it’s a great deal.

What do you say?

Xu Minghui nodded and instructed the bodyguard, Do it. Tell those two they must eliminate Ye Qiu.

The bodyguard bowed, Yes, sir.

Alright, you can go now, I need to rest, Xu Minghui said, waving his hand.

The bodyguard hesitated, Young Master, one more thing, should I confirm, are you attending Lin Jingzhi’s company opening tomorrow?

Of course I’m going, Xu Minghui said. How else will I see her make a fool of herself?

Then I’ll call you at nine tomorrow morning, the bodyguard said, glancing at the disheveled woman in Xu Minghui’s arms with a hint of envy.

Money really does buy everything, even actresses to play with.

The next day.

Clear skies for miles.

At the entrance of the Lin Group, a massive stage had been set up, adorned with a red carpet stretching hundreds of metres.

The stage was surrounded by flowers.

Hundreds of chairs were arranged below.

Dozens of beautiful ushers, dressed in vibrant red cheongsams, added a sense of ceremony.

The scene was brimming with festivity.

Eight in the morning.

A Mercedes-Benz slowly pulled up at the Lin Group’s entrance.

Lin Jingzhi, arm in arm with Ye Qiu, stepped out of the car.

Both had dressed up for the occasion. Lin Jingzhi wore a sharp red suit with a black blouse underneath, her hair pinned up, revealing a smooth forehead, her face lightly made up, exuding both competence and elegance.

As for Ye Qiu, he wore a white long robe, looking strikingly handsome.

Ye Qiu glanced at the stage and asked, Is the opening ceremony being held here?

Yes, Lin Jingzhi explained. I bought a building, but it’s still under renovation, so the ceremony has to be held here.

What’s the pharmaceutical company called? Ye Qiu asked.

Oriental Medicine Group, Lin Jingzhi said. I have an idea to rename the Lin Group to Oriental Group at the right time.

I think Oriental Group sounds grander.

What do you think?

Ye Qiu nodded, I agree. The word Oriental is not only grand but also carries deep meaning, evoking the rising sun in the east, full of vitality and prosperity.

Moreover, China stands tall in the East of the world.

In the future, Oriental Group could represent Chinese enterprises, competing with the world’s top conglomerates.

Lin Jingzhi smiled, With your approval, I’m reassured. I’ll find a renowned calligrapher to create a sign for our company.

Then we’ll hang the words Oriental Group at the top of this building.

Ye Qiu asked, Lin Jie, when’s the opening ceremony?

Eleven-thirty in the morning.

Ye Qiu glanced at his watch, there were still three and a half hours until the ceremony. An idea struck him, and he said, Lin Jie, why wait for another day?

Why not change the company name today?

It doesn’t require much preparation, just announce it on stage later.

As for the sign, no need to hire a calligrapher, I’ll get someone to write it.

What do you think?

Lin Jingzhi said coyly, Darling, didn’t we agree last night? I’ll listen to you on everything outside the bedroom.

Miracle Doctor Chapter 1009

Ye Qiu and Lin Jingzhi were talking when a BMW slowly pulled up.

Wan Jie is here, Lin Jingzhi said with a smile.

Soon, the BMW stopped, and Qin Wan stepped out.

Ye Qiu’s eyes lit up instantly.

Qin Wan had dressed up meticulously today, wearing a navy-blue cheongsam that accentuated her graceful figure perfectly.

With her flawless face, clear black eyes, delicate nose, elegantly curved cheeks, and full, vibrant lips, every feature was perfection.

Qin Wan was like a blooming crabapple, her long, slender legs faintly visible as she moved, exuding a mature allure.

Utterly captivating.

When Qin Wan saw Ye Qiu, a flash of delight crossed her eyes, but she quickly masked it.

Lin Jingzhi stepped forward, linked arms with Qin Wan, and said with a smile, Wan Jie, you’re here so early.

Qin Wan smiled, I came early to see if there’s anything I can help with.

Lin Jingzhi said, There wasn’t anything at first, but now that you mention it, there’s actually something I need your help with.

What is it? Qin Wan asked.

Let’s talk upstairs, Lin Jingzhi said, leading Qin Wan and Ye Qiu to the president’s office.

Once inside, Qin Wan asked, Jingzhi, what do you need me to do? Just say it, no need to be polite.

Don’t worry, Wan Jie, I won’t be polite with you, Lin Jingzhi said, glancing at Ye Qiu. The company’s opening today, and I’ll be busy, so I probably won’t have time to keep him company.

Wan Jie, I’m entrusting him to you.

Do me a favour and take care of him.

Instantly, Qin Wan’s face flushed red, and she stole a glance at Ye Qiu.

I’ve got things to do, I’ll head off now, Lin Jingzhi said with a grin, leaving the office.

As soon as she left, Ye Qiu walked over and pulled Qin Wan into his arms.

To his surprise, she pushed him away.

Wan Jie, what’s wrong? Ye Qiu asked, puzzled.

You heartless man, ignoring me for so long, hmph, Qin Wan said with a resentful look, pretending to be angry.

Ye Qiu pulled her into his arms again, apologising, Wan Jie, it’s my fault.

I’ve been too busy lately.

I’m sorry.

Before he could finish, Qin Wan’s lips pressed against his.

The two began kissing passionately.

Bang.

Suddenly, the office door was pushed open from outside, startling them both.

Lin Jingzhi stood at the doorway, chuckling, Wan Jie, I forgot to mention earlier.

There’s a room inside, with a big, soft bed you’ll definitely like.

Oh, and be gentle, don’t break Ye Qiu, I still need him, hehe.

Lin Jingzhi giggled and closed the office door.

Qin Wan’s face turned bright red, and she spat, Honestly, Jingzhi, how can she act like that.

Lin Jie’s always been like this, don’t you know? Ye Qiu said, holding Qin Wan. Wan Jie, shall we go to the room inside?

Qin Wan shook her head, No, it’s Jingzhi’s company opening today, and I need to go down later to help greet the guests.

Then I’ll come find you tonight? Ye Qiu suggested.

Alright, Qin Wan murmured, then glared at him. Take your hand off.

Ye Qiu’s right hand was slowly moving below Qin Wan’s waist. He grinned mischievously, Wan Jie, don’t you like it?

Qin Wan said, Don’t wrinkle my cheongsam, I’ve got to meet people later.

Ye Qiu nodded, Alright, I’ll be gentle.

Qin Wan: …

Ye Qiu suddenly remembered something important he hadn’t done, quickly let go of Qin Wan, pulled out his phone, and made a call.

Ten in the morning.

Ye Qiu and Qin Wan left Lin Jingzhi’s office and went downstairs to help greet the guests.

But as soon as they stepped out of the Lin Group’s entrance, they saw Lin Jingzhi scolding Sun Mengjie.

What did I tell you yesterday?

I asked you to have the PR department confirm all the media and guests attending today. How is it that not a single one has shown up?

How am I supposed to hold the company opening?

Lin Jingzhi’s face was icy.

It was clear she was furious.

Sun Mengjie said, President Lin, let me explain. Last night, I got word that none of the guests or media would be coming today.

Lin Jingzhi was livid, You knew last night and didn’t report to me?

Sun Mengjie, are you deliberately trying to make a fool of me?

If you don’t want to work here, you can leave.

Sun Mengjie’s eyes welled up with tears as she said, President Lin, I…

What do you mean, I? Lin Jingzhi snapped. If you want to keep your job, go contact the guests and media right now.

Ye Qiu hurried over and said, Lin Jie, don’t blame Xiao Jie.

Last night, she was going to report to you, but you were sleeping so soundly, I didn’t want to wake you.

Lin Jie, don’t worry, I’ve already arranged everything.

Hearing this, Lin Jingzhi’s anger subsided slightly, and she apologised to Sun Mengjie, Sorry, I got carried away just now.

Sun Mengjie shook her head, It’s not your fault, President Lin, it’s mine.

Just then, a Rolls-Royce Phantom pulled up at the entrance, and Xu Minghui stepped out.

Dressed in a suit with his hair slicked back, Xu Minghui looked ostentatious.

The weather’s great today.

Xu Minghui tilted his head back, took a deep breath, then walked up to Lin Jingzhi with a smile, flanked by two bodyguards. President Lin, congratulations on your new company’s opening.

Thank you, Lin Jingzhi replied expressionlessly.

Xu Minghui glanced at the empty seats, feigning confusion, How come I don’t see a single guest?

President Lin, you didn’t forget to invite guests, did you?

A company opening is a big deal, you can’t do it without guests. Want me to call a few friends to liven things up?

No need, Lin Jingzhi said. The guests will be here soon.

Is that so? Xu Minghui smirked. How many guests did you invite, President Lin? Who are they?

And how come I don’t see a single media outlet here?

President Lin, I’m not criticising, but a new company opening needs to be grand, with a big show to make an impression.

I happen to have good connections with some media. If you need, I can get them to come over.

No need, Lin Jingzhi cut him off. I’ve invited media, they’ll be here soon.

Just then, a black van stopped nearby.

Soon, a few men and women carrying cameras stepped out, looking like media reporters.

Which outlet is this? Why don’t I recognise them? It’s not some obscure tabloid, is it? Xu Minghui said.

Just as he finished, a middle-aged man with a large beard approached Lin Jingzhi respectfully and said, Hello, President Lin, I’m Wang Zhisheng, editor-in-chief of Jiangzhou Daily.

I’m here to cover your new company’s opening.

I hope I’m not disturbing you, President Lin?

Miracle Doctor Chapter 1010

Wang Zhisheng, as the editor-in-chief of Jiangzhou Daily, held a significant position, yet he was exceptionally respectful in Lin Jingzhi’s presence.

Lin Jingzhi shook hands with Wang Zhisheng, smiling, Editor Wang, it’s an honour to have you here. Welcome.

Wang Zhisheng looked flattered, It’s my privilege to serve you, President Lin.

Lin Jingzhi smiled faintly, Editor Wang, shall I take you to the media section?

No, no, Wang Zhisheng quickly waved his hand. President Lin, I know you’re busy today, don’t mind me. I’ll find a seat myself.

Also, I’ve already reported to the newspaper’s senior management. Tomorrow, I’ll publish a feature on Oriental Medicine Group’s opening ceremony, written by me, on the front page of Jiangzhou Daily.

Please offer your feedback then, President Lin.

With that, Wang Zhisheng led his team to find seats.

Seeing this, Xu Minghui felt a twinge of irritation.

He hadn’t expected Lin Jingzhi to actually secure media attendance.

However, he didn’t dwell on it, as in his view, Jiangzhou Daily was just a minor publication.

Xu Minghui couldn’t resist a mocking jab.

President Lin, don’t tell me you’ve only invited outlets like Jiangzhou Daily?

That’s rather low-tier, isn’t it?

For a billionaire like you, a new company opening should involve national-level media. Jiangzhou Daily, despite being an official outlet, has no influence.

President Lin, if you can’t get national media, I can help…

Before Xu Minghui could finish, Lin Jingzhi cut in, No need.

Mr Xu, if you’re here to congratulate, you’re welcome.

If you’re here to make snide remarks, you’re not.

Xu Minghui said, You misunderstand, President Lin, I’m only trying to help. Since you don’t appreciate it, I’ll say no more.

I’m just looking out for you.

After all, a company opening is a big deal. Without a few national media outlets reporting…

Before he could finish, a motorcade approached.

At least a dozen vehicles.

Each bore prominent logos: Sina, Sohu, Phoenix Media, First Finance…

In an instant, more than a dozen national-level media outlets appeared.

Lin Jingzhi smiled, Mr Xu, didn’t you say there were no national media? Haven’t they just arrived?

Xu Minghui was dumbfounded.

Moments later, the motorcade stopped, and journalists from major media outlets, accompanied by photographers with cameras, stepped out.

Xiao Jie, come with me to greet our media friends, Lin Jingzhi said, leading Sun Mengjie forward.

Xu Minghui’s face darkened, and he whispered to his bodyguard, What’s going on? Didn’t you say everything was sorted yesterday?

The bodyguard replied, Young Master, yesterday the Lin Group invited media related to the pharmaceutical industry. I contacted them all, and they confirmed they wouldn’t come today. As for these media, I suspect the Lin Group brought them in at the last minute.

Hmph.

Xu Minghui snorted coldly, Seems I underestimated Lin Jingzhi. She’s got some tricks up her sleeve.

The bodyguard reassured, Young Master, no need to worry. It’s just a few national media, no big deal.

Besides, while the media showed up, there’s still not a single guest.

When this gets out, Lin Jingzhi will still be a laughingstock in the industry.

A moment later, Lin Jingzhi finished greeting the media and returned to her original spot.

Xu Minghui said sardonically, President Lin, impressive, inviting so many national media.

Since you’re so capable, why not get CCTV here too?

Though CCTV isn’t easy to invite. Last year, for our Xu Group’s anniversary, our PR department tried everything and failed. It was only after my father personally intervened and pulled strings with a big shot that CCTV sent a junior reporter.

Ye Qiu scoffed, Is CCTV that hard to get?

Xu Minghui sneered, If you think it’s easy, go ahead and try.

No need to try, they’re already here, Ye Qiu said, pointing.

Xu Minghui followed Ye Qiu’s gesture and saw three vans approaching slowly.

Each van’s window bore two large characters: CCTV.

How is this possible?

Xu Minghui couldn’t believe it.

CCTV is based in Beijing. How could they come all the way to Jiangzhou for Lin Jingzhi’s company opening?

Absolutely impossible.

Xu Minghui froze, then laughed, President Lin, is this CCTV a fake? Where did you find them?

Idiot, Ye Qiu cursed.

Xu Minghui’s eyes widened, Who’re you calling an idiot?

Bang.

Just then, the door of the first van opened, and a graceful, beautiful woman stepped out.

Xu Minghui instantly recognised her, it was CCTV’s star anchor, Dong Si.

In that moment, Xu Minghui felt like he’d been slapped.

Called you an idiot, and you still don’t get it? Convinced now? Ye Qiu taunted.

Xu Minghui’s face turned grim.

After stepping out, Dong Si quickly approached Ye Qiu and said, Dr Ye, after getting your WeChat last night, I immediately led my team from Beijing, driving overnight to Jiangzhou.

Dr Ye, I’m not late, am I?

Ye Qiu smiled, Not at all, Miss Dong. I owe you one for coming all this way.

Let me introduce you.

This is my girlfriend, also the chairman of the soon-to-open Oriental Medicine Group, Lin Jingzhi.

Dong Si promptly shook hands with Lin Jingzhi, smiling, I’ve always wondered what kind of woman would match an outstanding man like Dr Ye.

Seeing you today, President Lin, I understand what they mean by a perfect match.

Congratulations, President Lin.

Thank you, Lin Jingzhi replied with a smile.

Oh, who’s this? Dong Si suddenly noticed Qin Wan, a flash of admiration in her eyes, and asked.

Ye Qiu said, Let me introduce, this is Qin Wan, my girlfriend.

What?

Dong Si was momentarily stunned, then laughed, Dr Ye, you’re truly blessed.

Ye Qiu grinned, I think so too.

Nearby, Xu Minghui’s face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. When he arrived, he’d noticed Qin Wan and was struck by her beauty, figure, and mature charm.

He’d assumed Qin Wan was Lin Jingzhi’s friend, not another of Ye Qiu’s women.

Envy, jealousy, and hatred surged within him.

Damn it, two stunning women, how does he deserve them?

But Xu Minghui didn’t know, the real slap in the face was just beginning…
