Miracle Doctor Chapter 1011
After CCTV arrived, soon, other media outlets followed.
Southern Metropolis!
Economic Weekly!
Mango Media!
…
In just half an hour.
More than a dozen national media outlets and forty to fifty provincial media outlets arrived, along with several major domestic portal websites.
Among them, some media outlets even sent their directors and chief reporters!
Xu Minghui’s face looked grim.
He had thought that with a little maneuvering, he could make Lin Jingzhi the laughingstock of the industry, but the development of events far exceeded his expectations.
Or rather, he was somewhat dumbfounded.
How could Lin Jingzhi, in just one night, manage to invite so many heavyweight media outlets to support her?
How did she do it?
Could it be Ye Qiu?
Xu Minghui glanced at Ye Qiu, then dismissed the thought, not believing that a gang leader could invite so many media outlets.
After all, many of those present today were official media.
This must be Lin Jingzhi’s ability!
In fact, not only was Xu Minghui shocked, but even Lin Jingzhi herself was astonished.
She was already surprised that Ye Qiu could invite CCTV and Dong Si, but what was even more surprising was that dozens of national media outlets showed up all at once.
You must know, usually only when the country holds major events would these media outlets gather together.
Lin Jingzhi dared not even dream that so many media outlets would come here today just to cover the opening of her new company.
For a moment, she was so touched that she wanted to hug Ye Qiu and kiss him hard.
“Darling, thank you.”
Lin Jingzhi, without caring about the people present, said affectionately to Ye Qiu.
“Sister Lin, between you and me, no thanks are needed, this is what I should do.”
Ye Qiu glanced at Xu Minghui and said with a smile, “It’s just that some people who wanted to see you become a joke might be disappointed.”
Hmph!
What’s there to be smug about?
Xu Minghui said indifferently, “President Lin, I really underestimated you, I didn’t expect you to invite so many media outlets, impressive.”
“But President Lin, don’t forget, media alone isn’t enough.”
“If the opening ceremony doesn’t even have a single guest, you’ll still become the laughingstock of the industry.”
Lin Jingzhi said coldly, “No need for President Xu to worry, the guests will be here soon.”
Xu Minghui sneered, “Where are the guests? Why don’t I see them?”
“Are you blind, can’t you see the guests have arrived?” As Ye Qiu spoke, a Maybach stopped at the entrance of the group.
The car door opened.
A young man helped an elderly man step out.
Xu Minghui narrowed his eyes.
Although he didn’t recognize the two, seeing the elderly man dressed in a black Tang suit, holding a dragon-headed cane, with an extraordinary aura, he realized this old man had some status.
“President Lin, congratulations.”
“The Dragon King graces us with his presence, welcome.”
The newcomers were none other than the Dragon King and Zhao Yun.
The Dragon King took out a cheque from his pocket, handed it to Lin Jingzhi, and said, “A small token, please accept it, President Lin.”
Lin Jingzhi looked down and saw the cheque was for 100 million, quickly refusing, “Dragon King, I’m already grateful that you came, how can I accept your money, please take it back.”
The Dragon King smiled, “President Lin, this is a small gesture from me, please accept it!”
Lin Jingzhi glanced at Ye Qiu, who nodded, and only then did she take the cheque, “Thank you, Dragon King.”
“No need to be polite, President Lin, you go ahead with your work, I’ll have a word with Ye Qiu.” The Dragon King walked up to Ye Qiu.
“Master!”
The Dragon King said, about to bow.
Ye Qiu quickly supported the Dragon King, saying, “Dragon King, in your presence, I will always be the junior, you don’t need to bow.”
“Looking back, if it weren’t for your help, I wouldn’t be where I am today.”
“I will always remember your kindness.”
The Dragon King was very pleased, sighing, “Back then, I only thought you were a very promising young man, I didn’t expect that in such a short time, you’d become the master of Dragon Gate.”
“Little Ye, you’re truly remarkable.”
“By the way, there’s something I’d like to ask of you.”
Ye Qiu asked, “What is it?”
The Dragon King said, “Zhao Yun is a rare talent, it’s a waste for him to always stay by this old man’s side, I’d like to ask you to find a role for him.”
Ye Qiu understood, the Dragon King wanted Zhao Yun to work under him.
“Brother Zhao, what do you think?” Ye Qiu asked.
Zhao Yun replied, “I want to stay in Jiangzhou, so I can take care of the Dragon King.”
Ye Qiu immediately had an idea, saying, “Brother Zhao, how about I put you in charge of Jiangzhou?”
Zhao Yun looked at Ye Qiu in shock, “You mean you want me to be the boss of Jiangzhou?”
“Yes.” Ye Qiu nodded with a smile.
“No, no.” Zhao Yun said, “I’ve never been a boss before, I’m afraid I won’t manage well.”
“Brother Zhao, don’t be afraid, I hadn’t been a master before either, had I?” Ye Qiu smiled, “Besides, the Dragon King used to be the boss of Jiangzhou, he has experience, he can guide you.”
“Dragon King, what do you think of my arrangement?”
The Dragon King laughed heartily, “I think it’s good.”
“Since the Dragon King also thinks it’s good, let’s happily settle it.”
The reason Ye Qiu made Zhao Yun the boss of Jiangzhou wasn’t just to give face to the Dragon King, he had his own considerations.
First, Zhao Yun had helped him before, and doing this was to repay Zhao Yun’s kindness.
Second, Zhao Yun was a loyal person and wouldn’t betray him.
Then, most of the Dragon Gate disciples in Jiangzhou were former subordinates of the Dragon King, Zhao Yun was familiar with them, making management easier.
Finally, Dragon Gate was in need of talent, and as long as someone capable wanted to join, Ye Qiu naturally welcomed them.
“Zhao Yun, Little Ye has made you the boss of Jiangzhou, why aren’t you thanking him?” the Dragon King reminded.
Zhao Yun said gratefully, “Ye Qiu, thank you.”
“Zhao Yun, what’s with the way you talk?” The Dragon King’s face darkened, “Call him Master!”
Zhao Yun then realized he had misspoken and quickly said, “Thank you, Master.”
Ye Qiu smiled and said, “Brother Zhao, whether I’m the master of Dragon Gate or a doctor, you can call me by my name, because in my heart, you’re my brother.”
Hearing this, Zhao Yun felt a warmth in his heart.
Business done.
“Dragon King, I have things to attend to, so I won’t keep you, I’ll come to your place for a drink another day.” After Ye Qiu finished, he instructed Sun Mengjie, “Xiao Jie, take the Dragon King and Brother Zhao to the guest seats.”
“Alright.” Sun Mengjie led the Dragon King and Zhao Yun away.
As soon as they left, Xu Minghui’s voice rang out:
“I thought it was some big shot, turns out it’s just a street thug.”
“President Lin, can’t you find any guests?”
“Otherwise, why would you invite such low-class people?”
Before Lin Jingzhi could respond, suddenly, a car stopped at the entrance.
Immediately after, someone stepped out of the car.
In an instant, Xu Minghui’s face changed.
Miracle Doctor Chapter 1012
“Tang Tang, why is she here…”
Xu Minghui’s expression changed.
As a playboy like him, he was usually most attentive to beautiful female celebrities. Even if he hadn’t met them in person, he had seen them on TV.
As soon as Tang Tang stepped out of the car, Xu Minghui recognized her.
Tang Tang wore light makeup and a white dress, her face radiating a sweet smile, giving off a very pure vibe without any celebrity airs.
Her appearance immediately caused a stir.
The scene erupted in screams.
After all, Tang Tang was currently the hottest pop diva.
Fortunately, Ye Qiu had arranged many Dragon Gate disciples to maintain order, or else half of Jiangzhou’s people might have rushed over to catch a glimpse of the superstar.
The media reporters on site swarmed forward, surrounding Tang Tang, taking photos and conducting interviews.
Lin Jingzhi whispered, “Darling, you really pulled it off, getting a big star to show up.”
Ye Qiu said, “No choice, I just love spoiling you.”
Lin Jingzhi rolled her eyes and said, “How about I lend you my office later, and you can have your way with Tang Tang?”
Ye Qiu gave a wry smile, “Sister Lin, she and I are just friends.”
Heh…
Lin Jingzhi didn’t believe him at all.
After answering a few questions, Tang Tang addressed the reporters, “Thank you all for your support.”
“Today, I came to Jiangzhou for the same reason as everyone else, to support my good friend.”
“For now, I won’t take any more interviews, because today’s star is President Lin.”
“If you have more questions for me, I’ll answer them after President Lin’s opening ceremony is over, alright?”
The reporters then cleared a path.
Lin Jingzhi stepped forward quickly, shook hands with Tang Tang, and said with a smile, “Having a superstar here truly brings honour, welcome.”
Tang Tang smiled, “Sister Lin, congratulations on your new company opening. I came in a rush and didn’t prepare a gift. How about I perform three songs later, is that okay?”
“Of course.” Lin Jingzhi said, “With your support, tomorrow’s entertainment headlines will probably be about our company’s opening. Thank you again.”
“We’re like sisters, no need to be so formal.” After speaking, Tang Tang greeted Qin Wan.
They had met at the beauty salon opening last time and were quite familiar with each other.
After the pleasantries.
Tang Tang walked up to Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu was about to greet her when Tang Tang opened her arms, wanting to hug him.
Ye Qiu quickly dodged.
Tang Tang was a bit unhappy, saying with a hint of resentment, “Ye Qiu, what’s that supposed to mean? Do you dislike me?”
“No, no.” Ye Qiu explained, “You’re a big star, and with so many reporters around, I’m worried about affecting your reputation.”
Tang Tang pouted, “I’m not afraid, so why are you?”
“I don’t care, I want to hug you.”
“If you dodge again, I’ll hate you forever.”
With that, Tang Tang ignored the onlookers and threw herself into Ye Qiu’s arms, like a young couple in love.
This made Xu Minghan, standing nearby, so envious his eyes turned red.
“Damn it, we all have one nose and two eyes, so why does he have such luck with women?”
“Why?”
“Just because he’s handsome?”
“Hmph, even if he’s handsome, can he be more handsome than the readers of *The Peerless Doctor*?”
Xu Minghui felt sour, as if he had eaten a few pounds of lemons.
A moment later.
Tang Tang stepped out of Ye Qiu’s embrace, said a few more words, and was then led by Qin Wan to the guest seats.
As soon as Tang Tang left, Xu Minghui snorted, “I thought it was some heavyweight guest, just a female celebrity.”
“I’m not bragging, but stars like her? I could call dozens with one phone call.”
“Even the four heavenly kings of Hong Kong, I could invite.”
“President Lin, the guests you’ve invited aren’t impressive enough…”
Before he could finish.
A bus appeared.
Soon, a group of old men got off.
Some wore Tang suits, others wore Zhongshan suits, looking like a bunch of old scholars.
Xu Minghui didn’t recognize any of them.
“Who are they?” Xu Minghui asked his bodyguard.
The bodyguard shook his head, “Don’t know.”
“President Lin, these aren’t your invited guests too, are they?” Xu Minghui laughed, “Those in the know would realize it’s your company’s opening today, but those who don’t might think you’re holding a senior citizens’ conference.”
“I don’t know what you were thinking, inviting a bunch of old men.”
“Hahaha, that’s hilarious.”
Ye Qiu glanced at Xu Minghui and spat out two words, “Idiot!”
Xu Minghui was furious, “Who are you calling…”
Before Xu Minghui could finish, Ye Qiu walked toward the group of old men.
“Old Xu!”
“Old Li!”
“Old Zhang!”
“Old Nie!”
“…”
Ye Qiu greeted them one by one.
These people were none other than the four national medical sages.
In addition, there were several leaders of the Chinese Medicine Association and over twenty top experts in the medical field.
What Ye Qiu didn’t expect was that Xu Liu had come too.
Last night, he had only texted Li Chunfeng, Nie Xueliang, and Zhang Jiuling, but hadn’t invited Xu Liu.
“Doctor Ye, I came uninvited, you won’t kick me out, will you?” Xu Liu joked.
Ye Qiu smiled, “Old Xu, you’re joking. I’m thrilled you’re here, how could I kick you out?”
“The reason I didn’t text you last night was because I thought you might not like such occasions.”
“Please forgive me.”
Xu Liu pretended to be angry, “Doctor Ye, explanations are just excuses.”
“You invited Old Li and the others but not me, isn’t that looking down on me?”
“I’m telling you, I’m very upset right now.”
“If you want to make it up to me, treat me to a drink.”
Ye Qiu agreed immediately, “No problem. Old Xu, I’ll treat you to a fifty-year-old vintage later.”
“Great!” Old Xu laughed.
Then, Ye Qiu introduced Lin Jingzhi to these medical industry titans.
Xu Minghui, listening nearby, finally learned the identities of these old men.
The bodyguard whispered, “Young Master, these are the top doctors in the country.”
“Do you need to tell me that?” Xu Minghui snapped, “These top doctors are a golden signboard. With them supporting Lin Jingzhi, her pharmaceutical company will surely do well after the opening.”
“These old men are usually too proud to attend such events, and Lin Jingzhi wouldn’t have been able to invite them. It must be Ye Qiu who helped her.”
Xu Minghui stared at Ye Qiu’s back, his eyes cold.
“Ye, why do you always go against me?”
However,
At that moment, a massive convoy of over a hundred Rolls-Royce Phantoms roared in.
Miracle Doctor Chapter 1013
Rolls-Royce Phantoms are top-tier luxury cars, and even a single one on the street would attract plenty of attention.
But now, over a hundred appeared all at once.
Such a massive convoy instantly drew countless eyes.
Even the media reporters were stunned, speculating wildly.
“Who’s making such a grand entrance?”
“With this kind of display, it’s got to be a billionaire at least!”
“Who on earth did President Lin invite?”
Lin Jingzhi was equally baffled, carefully noting the license plate of the leading Rolls-Royce.
Jiang A66666!
“That’s Old Master Wang’s car.”
Lin Jingzhi recognized it and asked, “Ye Qiu, did you invite Old Wang?”
Ye Qiu nodded, “The Wang family is one of Jiangzhou’s longstanding four major families. How could we not have them for your company’s opening, Sister Lin? But…”
“But what?” Lin Jingzhi asked.
Ye Qiu said, puzzled, “If it’s just Old Master Wang, is there really a need for such a big show?”
“Could he have brought friends along?”
Lin Jingzhi said, “Old Master Wang is humble and low-key, with many friends in the business world. Maybe he called some of them to come support, especially since you saved his life before.”
As they spoke, the massive convoy slowly came to a stop at the group’s entrance.
The door of the first car opened, and two people stepped out.
Old Master Wang and his grandson, Wang Xuan.
Ye Qiu and Lin Jingzhi hurriedly went to greet them.
“Old Wang, welcome,” Ye Qiu said politely.
Old Master Wang, looking radiant and in high spirits, smiled and said, “Little Ye, after getting your text last night, I called some of my old friends.”
“They’re all here today.”
“There are quite a few people, so you and President Lin don’t need to make special arrangements. Just find them a place to sit.”
“Oh, and President Lin, quickly have your team print more contracts. My old friends came with orders today.”
Lin Jingzhi said gratefully, “Old Wang, thank you so much.”
“It’s nothing, President Lin, no need to be polite,” Old Master Wang said with a smile. “Little Ye saved my life, and I’ve been looking for a chance to repay him. Being able to help out now is both a trust in me and an honour.”
“Without further ado, Little Ye, President Lin, I’ll let Wang Xuan introduce my friends.”
Old Master Wang gave Wang Xuan a look.
Wang Xuan understood, raised his right hand, and waved. Instantly, the doors of the hundred Rolls-Royces opened simultaneously.
The people who stepped out were all dressed in suits.
Each exuded an extraordinary presence.
Sharp-eyed reporters immediately recognized their identities.
“That one with the big gold watch is the boss of Harmony Finance, worth billions.”
“The one in the white suit is the boss of Lotus Pharmaceutical Group, recently listed on the Forbes billionaire list, worth nine billion.”
“And that bald fatty is the president of Qiming Technology, worth ten billion.”
“…”
Without exception.
These were all big bosses, each worth billions, some even tens of billions!
Though they were high and mighty tycoons in the eyes of others, at this moment, in front of Ye Qiu and Lin Jingzhi, they showed no airs.
Like schoolchildren, they lined up in a long queue, taking turns to shake hands with Ye Qiu and Lin Jingzhi.
Their attitudes were incredibly respectful.
Not only that, after shaking hands, they presented orders on the spot.
“Cao Yao from Hongda Real Estate, congratulations on your new company, President Lin. Here’s a one-billion order.”
“Pei Wei from Dashen Culture, congratulations on your new company, President Lin. Here’s a one-billion order.”
“Yang San from Aurora Media, congratulations on your new company, President Lin. Here’s a one-billion order.”
“…”
Every boss presented a one-billion order.
In other words, before Lin Jingzhi’s pharmaceutical company even officially opened, it had secured tens of billions in orders.
Seeing this, Xu Minghui’s face darkened to the extreme.
He had thought that by pulling some strings to keep media and guests away, he could make Lin Jingzhi a laughingstock.
Then, by getting rid of Ye Qiu, Lin Jingzhi, having lost him, would fall into his arms.
But he never expected that not only did national-level media show up today, but so many guests arrived, and these guests brought Lin Jingzhi tens of billions in orders.
Xu Minghui was fuming.
But what angered him most was Old Master Wang’s actions.
After the big bosses presented their orders, Old Master Wang smiled and said, “President Lin, I have an order to present as well.”
With that, he gave Wang Xuan a look.
Wang Xuan announced loudly, “The Jiangzhou Wang family congratulates President Lin on her new company opening and presents a three-billion order.”
Hiss—
The crowd gasped.
Xu Minghui’s face turned ashen, his eyes fixed on Old Master Wang, wishing he could tear the old man apart.
“The Jiangzhou Wang family, hmph, I’ll remember this.”
“You dare go against me? You’ve got some guts.”
“You old fool, just wait. Once I get back to the capital, I’ll wipe out your Wang family.”
Xu Minghui clenched his fists, swearing silently to himself.
Having secured tens of billions in orders all at once, Lin Jingzhi beamed and said to Old Master Wang and the other bosses, “Thank you so much, Old Wang and all the bosses, for your support. Please take your seats.”
With that, Sun Mengjie and the staff immediately led them to the guest seats.
Once they left, Lin Jingzhi said to Ye Qiu, “This time, we really owe Old Wang a huge favour.”
Ye Qiu said, “Sister Lin, let’s find a time to visit Old Master Wang later.”
“Mm.” Lin Jingzhi nodded in agreement.
After all, without Old Master Wang, there wouldn’t be these tens of billions in orders.
A little later.
Bai Bing arrived.
Bai Bing wore stunning makeup, her hair tied back, dressed in a white blazer, tight jeans, and high heels, making her long legs look even more striking.
However, her expression remained cold, like a queen.
Seeing Bai Bing and Ye Qiu exchanging glances, Xu Minghui felt another surge of irritation.
“Damn it, why do all the beautiful women like him?”
After Lin Jingzhi exchanged a few words with Bai Bing, she glanced at her watch and asked Ye Qiu, “Any more guests? It’s about time. If there are no more, I’ll prepare for the opening ceremony.”
Ye Qiu said, “There shouldn’t be any more guests. Go ahead with the ceremony!”
“Alright.” Just as Lin Jingzhi was about to leave, Xu Minghui’s mocking laugh rang out.
“President Lin, I didn’t realize you had such a wide network!”
“But unfortunately, while these people have some money, on a national scale, they’re still small fry.”
“President Lin, since you’re so capable, why not invite a few top-tier tycoons to show up…”
Before Xu Minghui could finish, a loud roar suddenly came from the sky.
Miracle Doctor Chapter 1014
Boom—
A dozen camouflage-painted helicopters suddenly appeared in the sky, roaring loudly.
These were military helicopters!
Instantly, the scene descended into chaos.
“Why are there so many armed helicopters?”
“What are they doing here?”
“Could it be that someone’s in trouble?”
Seeing this, Xu Minghui was first startled, then burst into laughter, “President Lin, surely these war machines aren’t your invited guests too?”
“With this kind of show, it looks like they’re here to arrest someone!”
“Who knows what kind of dangerous criminal has stirred up so many helicopters?”
As Xu Minghui spoke, he glanced at Ye Qiu, continuing with a laugh, “President Lin, if I’m not mistaken, Ye Qiu is the master of Dragon Gate, right?”
“Could it be that the military is here for him?”
“Shut up!” Lin Jingzhi snapped coldly.
Xu Minghui not only didn’t shut up, but his smile grew wider, “President Lin, oh, President Lin, you rejected my proposal for Ye Qiu.”
“Such a pity, Ye Qiu’s about to be arrested.”
“As the master of Dragon Gate, once the military catches him, it’s either a bullet or life in prison, haha…”
Xu Minghui laughed unrestrainedly.
“Ye Qiu, what’s going on?” Lin Jingzhi asked quietly.
Her expression was tense, worried that the military was indeed after Ye Qiu.
“Sister Lin, don’t worry.”
Ye Qiu gave Lin Jingzhi a reassuring look, having already recognized that these helicopters were from Hades Hall.
Xu Minghui sneered mockingly, “Tch, tch, tch, as expected of the Dragon Gate master. The military’s coming for you, and you’re still unfazed. This composure, I truly admire, admire!”
Ye Qiu turned to look at Xu Minghui, “Are you really the heir of the Xu family from the capital?”
Xu Minghui said proudly, “Of course.”
“I don’t think so,” Ye Qiu said. “The Xu family is, after all, a second-tier family. I can’t understand how such a big family produced an idiot like you.”
“You dare call me an idiot?” Xu Minghui’s eyes widened, about to explode in anger, but then he laughed again, “Forget it, I won’t stoop to your level.”
“You’re about to be arrested anyway.”
“You’re done for, kid.”
Ye Qiu looked at Xu Minghui like he was an idiot, “Maybe the military isn’t here to arrest me. Perhaps they’re here to show support.”
“Support? Hahaha…” Xu Minghui laughed so hard tears nearly fell, “You’ve got some imagination. The military supporting you? Do you think you’re some military bigshot?”
“You’re just a thug leader.”
“People like you, everyone wants to take you down.”
Ye Qiu shook his head, too lazy to bother with Xu Minghui further.
Seeing this, Xu Minghui grew even smugger, “Why aren’t you talking? Did I hit the nail on the head…”
“I just don’t want to waste words on a moron,” Ye Qiu said, looking up at the sky.
At that moment, one of the armed helicopters slowly descended.
A little later.
The helicopter’s hatch opened, and soon, two agile figures quickly slid down ropes to the ground.
They were dressed in camouflage, guns slung across their backs, fully armed.
“Tang Fei! Long Ye!”
Xu Minghui recognized the two men, grinning so widely his mouth twisted, and said to Ye Qiu, “Kid, do you know who they are?”
“They’re from Hades Hall.”
“Do you know what Hades Hall does?”
“Let me tell you, Hades Hall is the military’s most secretive special forces team, each member battle-hardened. Their main mission is to catch vicious criminals like you…”
Before Xu Minghui could finish, he saw Tang Fei and Long Ye stride up to Ye Qiu.
Then, both stood at attention and saluted Ye Qiu.
What’s going on?
Why are they saluting Ye Qiu?
Before Xu Minghui could process it, he saw Ye Qiu raise his right hand and return a salute.
What? This kid’s with the military?
Xu Minghui was dumbfounded.
“Old Tang, why’d you bring so many people?” Ye Qiu pointed at the helicopters circling above, smiling, “You scared everyone.”
Tang Fei glanced at the guests and said apologetically, “Sorry, I didn’t think it through.”
“When I got the War God’s call, I was already on the plane.”
“These guys were with me on a mission in the southwest. We were passing through Jiangzhou, so we came together.”
Tang Fei’s gaze fell on Lin Jingzhi, “President Lin, the War God asked me to apologize on his behalf. His legs aren’t what they used to be, so he couldn’t come in person. Please don’t mind.”
“Also, Hades Hall will procure ten billion worth of pharmaceuticals from your company. The contract’s been sent to your email.”
“Check it later, and if there’s no issue, just sign it!”
Tang Fei’s voice wasn’t quiet, and everyone heard.
Instantly, envy swept through the crowd.
Hades Hall was proactively buying pharmaceuticals from Lin Jingzhi’s company, and it was a ten-billion deal. This meant Lin Jingzhi would have a long-term partnership with Hades Hall, earning her a fortune.
More importantly, with this connection, Hades Hall would have her back. Who would dare touch Lin Jingzhi now?
Xu Minghui felt like he’d been struck by lightning, his mind buzzing.
Just minutes ago, he was mocking Ye Qiu, thinking Hades Hall was here to arrest him. But reality slapped him hard.
The Xu family had tried to collaborate with Hades Hall, pulling every string they had, but failed.
Yet Lin Jingzhi, whose company hadn’t even opened, had Hades Hall proactively offering a ten-billion order.
Why?
Envy!
Jealousy!
Rage!
Confusion!
All sorts of emotions flooded Xu Minghui, nearly suffocating him.
…
“Ye Qiu, Long Ye and I have a mission and can’t stay. We’re heading out.”
Tang Fei said to Lin Jingzhi, “President Lin, wishing you a grand opening and great success.”
“Thank you,” Lin Jingzhi smiled in gratitude.
Long Ye said, “Sister-in-law, I wish you and the boss a quick marriage and a hundred kids. Bye!”
The two came quickly and left just as fast.
In a flash, the dozen Hades Hall helicopters departed, and the scene returned to calm.
“It’s about time, let’s prepare for the opening ceremony!”
“Ice Sister, let’s head to the front row.”
Lin Jingzhi said, linking arms with Bai Bing to leave.
“Wait!”
Ye Qiu suddenly spoke.
Lin Jingzhi turned back, looking at Ye Qiu curiously, “What’s up?”
Ye Qiu pointed, “Looks like another guest is here.”
Lin Jingzhi looked up and saw an Audi A8 driving over.
She glanced at the license plate and noticed it was ordinary, just a plate from the capital.
Could the person in the car be from the capital?
Who could it be?
Miracle Doctor Chapter 1015
The Audi sedan came to a steady stop at the group’s entrance.
The car door slowly opened.
A middle-aged man in his forties stepped out.
He was slightly plump, dressed in a Zhongshan suit, with a smile that gave him a refined air.
Instantly, the crowd was stunned!
The reporters on site rushed forward, snapping photos of the man frantically.
Xu Minghui’s pupils contracted sharply upon seeing him.
“Ye Wuwei, the richest man in China!”
“Why is he here?”
“Could he also be here to support Lin Jingzhi?”
Lin Jingzhi, seeing Ye Wuwei, was taken aback and asked Ye Qiu, “Did you invite him?”
Ye Qiu shook his head, “No.”
“Then why is he here?”
“No idea.”
Ye Qiu genuinely didn’t know, as he hadn’t sent Ye Wuwei a text.
After getting out of the car, Ye Wuwei scanned the crowd, his gaze finally resting on Ye Qiu’s face.
His eyes were complex, filled with joy and a touch of nostalgia.
Then,
Ye Wuwei walked over.
Ye Qiu noticed that Ye Wuwei’s features bore some resemblance to Ye Dabao, but his steady gait carried the aura of a seasoned leader.
This is my second uncle?
Ye Qiu was a bit surprised, not expecting to meet Ye Wuwei for the first time in such a setting.
Soon, Ye Wuwei reached Ye Qiu.
“Master Ye, hello.”
Ye Wuwei didn’t call Ye Qiu by name, instead addressing him as the master of Dragon Gate.
Ye Qiu understood that, in public, Ye Wuwei didn’t want to reveal his connection to the Ye family.
“Hello.” Ye Qiu extended his right hand.
Ye Wuwei grasped it firmly, looking at Ye Qiu’s face with a flash of excitement in his eyes, “So alike, too alike!”
Ye Qiu knew Ye Wuwei meant he resembled Ye Wushuang.
“Why are you here?” Ye Qiu asked.
“Master Ye, you’re not being fair. Your girlfriend’s new company is opening, and you didn’t invite me. Do you look down on me?”
Ye Wuwei smiled, “Actually, I came to Jiangzhou for some business and happened to hear about your girlfriend’s company opening, so I thought I’d join the fun.”
Ye Qiu asked, “Long trip, wasn’t it?”
“Not too long, just over ten hours…” Ye Wuwei paused, then laughed, “Well played, Master Ye, trying to fish for information.”
Even without asking, Ye Qiu could tell Ye Wuwei had come straight from the capital.
He noticed Ye Wuwei’s large eye bags and faint dark circles, clear signs of poor rest.
Ye Qiu immediately channeled a surge of inner energy through his palm into Ye Wuwei, who instantly felt invigorated.
“Thank you,” Ye Wuwei said gratefully.
Ye Qiu replied, “I should be thanking you for coming all this way.”
Ye Wuwei asked, “Master Ye, got some time later? Let’s have a chat.”
Ye Qiu said, “After the opening ceremony, is that alright?”
“Sure.” Ye Wuwei smiled, his gaze shifting to Bai Bing, “Little girl, not even a greeting? Don’t recognize me?”
Bai Bing quickly greeted, “Hello, Uncle Ye.”
Ye Wuwei said, “I remember when Old General Bai brought you to our house to play, you were just a little kid. In the blink of an eye, you’ve grown so much. Time flies like water, like an arrow!”
Sighing, he added, “Before coming to Jiangzhou, I visited Old General Bai.”
“Old General Bai is in good health, so don’t worry, lass. Work hard in Jiangzhou!”
Bai Bing said, “Thank you, Uncle Ye.”
Only then did Ye Wuwei’s gaze fall on Lin Jingzhi.
It was Lin Jingzhi’s first time meeting Ye Wuwei, and knowing Ye Qiu’s connection to him, she couldn’t help but feel nervous.
After a long pause.
Ye Wuwei finally said three words, “Very good.”
Lin Jingzhi relaxed, knowing she had gained the approval of the Ye family.
Then, Ye Wuwei continued,
“President Lin, congratulations on your new company opening. I didn’t bring any gifts, so I’ll just offer you a fifty-billion order.”
Boom!
The crowd was shaken to its core.
A fifty-billion order!
And delivered personally by Ye Wuwei!
The guests were nearly floored.
“Talk about deep pockets.”
“Worthy of the richest man, such a grand gesture.”
“President Lin’s going to make a fortune.”
After all, Lin Jingzhi had already secured a ten-billion order from Hades Hall, plus over ten billion from Old Master Wang and his friends.
That was already over twenty billion.
Now, with Ye Wuwei’s fifty-billion order, it meant that before Lin Jingzhi’s company even officially opened, its assets had reached over seventy billion.
Seventy billion—a figure most people couldn’t even dream of.
Everyone present realized they were witnessing the birth of a pharmaceutical giant.
Lin Jingzhi and Eastern Pharmaceutical Group’s names would surely resound nationwide after today.
Lin Jingzhi was stunned.
She had guessed Ye Wuwei would bring a significant gift, given he was Ye Qiu’s uncle.
But she never imagined he’d offer fifty billion.
“President Ye, thank you! Thank you!”
Lin Jingzhi, seasoned in big occasions, was thrilled but maintained a calm demeanor.
Ye Wuwei smiled, “No need to thank me. Beyond this order, I’ve decided that the Ye Group will establish a long-term partnership with your group.”
“Whether you need funds or technology, whatever the Ye Group has, we’ll support you unconditionally.”
“President Lin, here’s to a fruitful partnership.”
Lin Jingzhi nodded firmly, “Thank you, President Ye.”
“President Ye, the opening ceremony is about to start.”
“Let me take you to the guest seats!”
“Alright.” Ye Wuwei was about to follow Lin Jingzhi to the guest seats.
Just then.
Xu Minghui stepped forward, “President Lin, hold on.”
“Little Xu?” Ye Wuwei recognized Xu Minghui, “What are you doing here?”
“President Ye, our Xu Group is also collaborating with the Lin Group,” Xu Minghui said, looking at Lin Jingzhi with a hint of flattery, “President Lin, we finalized our deal yesterday. We’re signing the contract at the opening ceremony today. Please make the arrangements, I’ve brought the contract.”
Xu Minghui’s change in attitude stemmed from his envy after seeing so many orders. He knew that continuing to work with Lin Jingzhi would bring huge profits to the Xu Group.
Lin Jingzhi sneered, “The Xu Group is too high for me to reach. No need to sign the contract.”
Xu Minghui panicked, “President Lin, we agreed yesterday. You can’t go back on your word…”
Slap!
Ye Qiu sent Xu Minghui flying with a slap, cursing, “What an idiot, talking too much nonsense!”
Miracle Doctor Chapter 1016
After Ye Qiu sent Xu Minghui flying with a slap, he turned to Lin Jingzhi and said, “Sister Lin, let’s start the opening ceremony!”
Lin Jingzhi nodded, leading Ye Wuwei and others to sit in the front row, then gave Sun Mengjie a look.
The opening ceremony officially began.
Sun Mengjie, acting as the emcee, spoke a few words before inviting Ye Wuwei, the renowned doctor Li Chunfeng, and Old Master Wang to give speeches as guest representatives.
Next, media representative Dong Si took the stage to speak.
Following that, Tangtang performed three songs, pushing the atmosphere to its peak.
An hour passed.
The ceremony was nearing its end, with only the final ribbon-cutting segment remaining.
At that moment, a taxi stopped at the group’s entrance, and a resolute-looking young man stepped out, holding a rectangular wooden box. He said something to the security guard, who quickly ran to Ye Qiu and whispered a few words.
Ye Qiu immediately stood and approached the young man.
“Hello, I’m Ye Qiu,” Ye Qiu introduced himself.
“Mr. Ye, hello. I’m Huang Wei from the Security Bureau. On Old Tang’s orders, I’m here to deliver this to you.”
The young man handed the wooden box to Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu opened it, glanced inside, and said gratefully, “Thanks, brother.”
“No need to thank me, Mr. Ye. I must return to report to Old Tang. Farewell.”
The young man got back into the taxi and left hurriedly.
Ye Qiu returned to his seat, handed the box to Lin Jingzhi, and said, “Sister Lin, you can use this opportunity to announce the company’s name change to the public.”
Lin Jingzhi took the box, opened it, and her face lit up with shock, then joy. “This is a treasure.”
“Husband, I love you to death.”
“I’ve decided, tonight we’ll call Sister Wan and Bai Bing to join us.”
Bai Bing, sitting next to Lin Jingzhi, heard her and snorted, “Vixen.”
“Enough, Bai Bing. Stop pretending with me. You think I don’t know? Women like you who seem cold are secretly wild,” Lin Jingzhi teased with a grin. “Tonight, the four of us will have fun, how about it?”
Bai Bing’s face was stern. “I’m not interested.”
Lin Jingzhi said, “Not interested? Fine, one less person means more comfort for me and Sister Wan.”
Bai Bing snapped, “Lin Jingzhi, you must’ve been a fox in your past life.”
Hehe—
Lin Jingzhi laughed, then, holding the box, stepped onto the stage.
“Dear guests, friends, good day!”
“With winds from all directions and the anticipation of many, today, on this joyous occasion, Eastern Pharmaceutical Group officially opens.”
“At this moment, with distinguished friends gathered, I’m deeply honored by the presence of our guests and media friends.”
“I’d like to take this opportunity to announce something.”
“As of today, the parent company of Eastern Pharmaceutical Group, Lin Group, is officially renamed Eastern Group.”
“For this, I specially invited a mysterious figure to inscribe our group’s new signboard. Please take a look.”
Lin Jingzhi opened the box and took out a scroll.
Unfurling it, the scroll revealed four bold characters on rice paper.
“Eastern Group!”
The characters were vigorous and flowing, exuding grandeur.
Beside them were eight smaller characters.
“Sun rises in the east, dragon soars the skies.”
Signed: Tang!
The crowd was puzzled.
“Who wrote this?”
“Why just one character for the name?”
“The calligraphy is powerful, piercing through the paper, clearly the work of a master.”
“I’d bet the writer is a titan in the calligraphy world.”
Suddenly, Ye Wuwei spoke, “This wasn’t written by a calligrapher.”
“Oh? Mr. Ye, do you know who wrote it?” someone asked.
Ye Wuwei replied, “It was written by Old Tang.”
What?
Written by Old Tang?
The crowd was incredulous.
“I recognize it. It’s definitely Old Tang’s handwriting,” said CCTV host Dong Si. “Last year, Old Tang inscribed something for CCTV, and the script is identical.”
A director from a national newspaper added, “Yes, this year we published a book, Old Tang’s Youth Days, and reviewed many archives, including his letters from youth.”
“I photographed them. The handwriting matches the one in President Lin’s hands.”
“I can confirm, this is Old Tang’s work.”
As the words landed, Lin Jingzhi’s voice rang out, “Many guests were guessing who wrote this. I’ll tell you now—it was Old Tang.”
Hiss—
The crowd gasped.
Their gazes toward Lin Jingzhi were filled with envy.
“President Lin is incredible, getting Old Tang to write for her.”
“With Old Tang’s inscription, the richest man here in person, and Hades Hall’s orders, who’d dare challenge President Lin?”
“Eastern Group is set to soar!”
Lin Jingzhi gave a few more words of thanks, and the ceremony concluded.
Afterward, Lin Jingzhi led the guests to tour the group.
Ye Qiu and Ye Wuwei went to Lin Jingzhi’s office.
The uncle and nephew sat face-to-face.
Ye Wuwei looked at Ye Qiu and said, “I remember holding you when you were born. In the blink of an eye, over twenty years have passed. You’ve not only grown up but built a career. If your father saw this, he’d be very proud.”
Ye Qiu smiled and asked, “Is the old man doing well?”
“He’s fine, just misses you. He wants to meet but hasn’t found the right time.” Ye Wuwei shifted, “Ye Qiu, about Dabao, thank you for going easy on him.”
Ye Qiu laughed, “We’re family, Second Uncle. No need to be formal.”
Ye Wuwei added, “I’m not like Third Uncle. He’s skilled in martial arts and can help you. I only know business.”
“Ye Qiu, if you need money, just say the word.”
“No matter how much, if I have it, it’s yours.”
“By the way, before I came, the old man asked me to tell you to hurry and improve your strength. He has a feeling those guys in the Forbidden City are about to come out.”
Ye Qiu nodded, “Thank the old man for me. I’ll work hard to improve.”
Ye Wuwei continued, “There’s one more thing. I don’t know how to say it.”
Ye Qiu asked, “What is it? Second Uncle, speak freely.”
“Don’t get mad,” Ye Wuwei said. “The old man arranged a marriage for you. He’s found you a fiancée!”
Miracle Doctor Chapter 1017
A marriage!
A fiancée!
Ye Qiu’s face darkened instantly.
“What’s the old man up to? Does he think I don’t have enough romantic entanglements? Or that my current confidantes aren’t worthy of entering the Ye family?”
Ye Qiu said, displeased.
“Ye Qiu, don’t be upset. The old man’s doing this for your own good…”
Before Ye Wuwei could finish, Ye Qiu cut him off.
“For my own good? Shouldn’t he ask if I need it?” Ye Qiu said. “Besides, after Long Yi comes out of seclusion, it’s uncertain if I’ll even survive.”
“If he finds me a fiancée now and I die, won’t that leave the girl a widow?”
“Isn’t that just harming her?”
“Second Uncle, please tell the old man I don’t need this marriage.”
Ye Wuwei looked troubled. “Ye Qiu, I’m afraid this isn’t up to you.”
“The old man has already settled things with the other family.”
“The girl’s family is quite satisfied with you.”
Ye Qiu laughed in exasperation. “What, I can’t even decide my own marriage?”
“Second Uncle, tell me.”
“Which family’s daughter is so unlucky?”
Ye Wuwei said, “The Tang family.”
The Tang family?
Ye Qiu was stunned.
As far as he knew, among Beijing’s top elite families, only two bore the Tang surname.
One was Tang Fei’s family, and the other was Old Tang’s!
Ye Qiu’s heart jolted, and he asked, “Second Uncle, is the old man’s choice for my fiancée Old Tang’s…”
“Exactly,” Ye Wuwei took over. “Your fiancée is Old Tang’s granddaughter.”
“And you know this girl.”
“It’s Tangtang.”
Ye Qiu had long suspected Tangtang’s identity, and sure enough, she was Old Tang’s granddaughter.
Ye Wuwei said, “Tangtang’s real name is Tang Tang. Tangtang is just her stage name.”
“I watched Tangtang grow up. Setting aside her status, she’s beautiful, well-educated, refined, and an exceptional young woman.”
“She’s a big star, you’re a medical sage— you two are a match made in heaven.”
“Ye Qiu, I think you should consider it.”
Ye Qiu gave a wry smile. “Second Uncle, it’s not about considering or not.”
“Tangtang and I are just friends. There’s no emotional foundation.”
“Besides, I already have Lin Jingzhi and Bai Bing. If I marry Tangtang, what about them?”
Ye Wuwei laughed. “From what I see, Lin Jingzhi and Bai Bing aren’t petty women. If you marry Tangtang, they probably won’t object.”
“And Tangtang knows about Lin Jingzhi and the others. If you marry her, she won’t stop you from staying close with them.”
“Ye Qiu, the old man thought of all this, which is why he proposed to the Tang family.”
Ye Qiu asked, “Is the old man worried that during the final battle, I won’t be a match for the Forbidden City, and they’ll kill me?”
“So he found me a fiancée.”
“This way, the Forbidden City might hesitate because of Old Tang’s status and spare me, right?”
Ye Wuwei shook his head. “No.”
No?
Ye Qiu was surprised. He thought he’d guessed right, but Ye Wuwei denied it.
“Then what’s the reason?” Ye Qiu asked curiously.
Ye Wuwei said, “The old man considered everything you’ve thought of.”
“When the final battle comes, even if you’re Old Tang’s grandson-in-law, the Forbidden City won’t hold back.”
“And since Wudi killed Long Jiu, the Forbidden City won’t let him go either.”
“Of course, with old and new grudges combined, the Forbidden City won’t spare our Ye family either.”
“So, the old man wants to ally with Old Tang.”
“For you, for Wudi, for the Ye family, to find a glimmer of hope.”
Ye Qiu was puzzled and said, “Second Uncle, can you be more specific?”
Ye Wuwei said, “The reason the old man arranged this marriage is to tie Old Tang and our Ye family to the same boat, to take down the Forbidden City.”
“The Forbidden City has been arrogant for years, ignoring state law and Old Tang’s authority. It’s long overdue to be dismantled.”
“But for certain special reasons, Old Tang hasn’t been able to make up his mind.”
“Old Tang has only one granddaughter, Tangtang, whom he adores. If you marry her, you’ll be his grandson-in-law.”
“If the Forbidden City wants to kill you, Old Tang, not wanting Tangtang to be a widow, will step in to help you.”
“That way, the Ye and Tang families will form an alliance.”
Ye Qiu understood.
In essence, the old man wanted him to marry Tangtang to use that connection to force Old Tang to resolve to destroy the Forbidden City.
“Second Uncle, let me ask. If Old Tang decides to take down the Forbidden City, can he succeed?”
“It’s tough,” Ye Wuwei said. “The Forbidden City’s power is beyond your imagination, unless…”
“Unless what?”
“Unless nuclear weapons are used, regardless of the consequences,” Ye Wuwei said. “But in the capital, using nukes would make Old Tang a sinner for the ages, so he won’t do it.”
Ye Qiu was incredulous. “Even with the Ye and Tang families combined, plus me, the Dragon Gate, and Hades Hall, can we take down the Forbidden City?”
Ye Wuwei said gravely, “Still tough.”
Ye Qiu said, “If that’s the case, Second Uncle, an alliance between the Ye and Tang families is meaningless, and I’m still doomed.”
Ye Wuwei said, “What lies before us is indeed a dead end.”
“But the old man isn’t resigned, I’m not resigned, and I believe you aren’t either.”
“So we must unite as many forces as possible to confront the Forbidden City.”
Ye Qiu sensed the weight in Ye Wuwei’s words and asked, “What trump card does the Forbidden City have to be so formidable?”
“You shouldn’t know yet, to avoid added pressure,” Ye Wuwei said. “Right now, you need to do two things.”
“First, improve your strength.”
“Second, marry Tangtang.”
Ye Qiu was silent for a moment, then said, “Second Uncle, please tell the old man I won’t marry Tangtang.”
“Since even a Ye-Tang alliance has no chance against the Forbidden City, and I’m doomed, there’s no need to drag Tangtang down.”
“You and the old man should start planning a fallback.”
Ye Wuwei asked, “And you?”
“Me?” Ye Qiu smiled. “Since I challenged the Forbidden City, I’ve put life and death aside.”
“My father’s vengeance is mine to take.”
“Whether I live or die, I won’t back down.”
Ye Wuwei sighed deeply. “You’re just like your father, unyielding to the core.”
“Ye Qiu, I’ve said all I need to. I’ll convey your stance to the old man.”
“I’m leaving.”
Ye Qiu stood immediately. “Second Uncle, I’ll see you out.”
“No need,” Ye Wuwei said, pausing at the door. “Before I came, the old man said if you refuse to marry Tangtang, you’ll have to personally tell Old Tang to call off the engagement.”
Miracle Doctor Chapter 1018
Ye Wuwei left, and Ye Qiu felt a massive headache.
Cancel the engagement with Old Tang?
Wouldn’t that be slapping Old Tang in the face?
The old man had really put him in a tough spot!
Besides that, another issue was gnawing at Ye Qiu: the Forbidden City.
“Right now, the Forbidden City only has Long Yi and Long Er left.”
“Even adding Long Yi’s disciple, Zhuge Yun, the head of Shu Sword Pavilion, that’s just three people.”
“How could Second Uncle say that even with the Ye and Tang families combined, plus me, the Dragon Gate, and Hades Hall, we still don’t stand a chance?”
“Does the Forbidden City have some terrifying trump card?”
Ye Qiu frowned.
At that moment, the office door opened, and Lin Jingzhi walked in.
“Husband, why the frown? Unhappy?”
Lin Jingzhi came over, sat on Ye Qiu’s lap, wrapped her arms around his neck, and asked softly.
“Not unhappy, just thinking,” Ye Qiu said, snapping out of his thoughts. “Sister Lin, why aren’t you with the guests?”
Lin Jingzhi said, “Most of the guests have left. I let Xiao Jie handle the rest.”
“Where’s Sister Wan?” Ye Qiu asked.
Lin Jingzhi replied, “Something came up at the beauty salon, so Sister Wan went back. Bai Bing’s back at the hospital too.”
Ye Qiu suddenly thought of a plan to cancel the engagement. He couldn’t face Old Tang himself, but Tangtang could talk to him. He asked, “Sister Lin, where’s Tangtang?”
“I thought you wouldn’t ask about her. So, there is something between you two,” Lin Jingzhi teased with a smile. “Your big-star girlfriend left too.”
“Left?” Ye Qiu was surprised.
Lin Jingzhi said, “Tangtang said she just took a lead role in a historical drama. She rushed here from the set to support us, but time was tight. The director kept urging her, so she had to head back immediately.”
“By the way, before she left, she didn’t see you and asked me where you were.”
“I can tell she’s into you.”
“Husband, what did you and Second Uncle talk about?”
Lin Jingzhi added, “Second Uncle really came through this time, giving us a 50-billion-yuan order. We’re rich.”
Ye Qiu said with a wry face, “Second Uncle told me the old man found me a fiancée.”
“Oh?” Lin Jingzhi’s interest piqued. “Which family’s daughter?”
“You just saw her,” Ye Qiu said.
Lin Jingzhi asked, “Could it be Bai Bing? She’s General Bai’s granddaughter, a good match for the Ye family, and you two already have something going…”
“It’s Tangtang,” Ye Qiu said suddenly.
“Tangtang?” Lin Jingzhi looked puzzled. “The old man is the head of Beijing’s top family. Why would he choose a celebrity as your wife?”
“That doesn’t make sense!”
“From what I know, elite families usually look down on actresses, unless…”
Lin Jingzhi suddenly realized something and asked, “Husband, does Tangtang have a big background, from a top elite family?”
Ye Qiu nodded. “Tangtang is Old Tang’s granddaughter.”
Lin Jingzhi froze.
Clearly, she hadn’t expected the old man to pick Old Tang’s granddaughter, the granddaughter of the highest authority, as Ye Qiu’s fiancée.
A flicker of sadness passed through Lin Jingzhi’s eyes, but it quickly vanished.
“Husband, you’re amazing!”
Lin Jingzhi patted Ye Qiu’s shoulder, smiling brightly. “Tangtang’s beautiful, has a great personality, and is a big star. She’s worthy of you.”
“Plus, if you marry her, you’ll be Old Tang’s grandson-in-law. In ancient times, you’d be a prince consort.”
Ye Qiu stared at Lin Jingzhi for a full ten seconds before asking, “Sister Lin, the old man found me a fiancée, and you’re not upset?”
“Why should I be upset?” Lin Jingzhi said. “Even if you have a fiancée, I’m still your woman.”
“I, Lin Jingzhi, am set on you for life. As long as you don’t abandon me, I’ll follow you forever.”
“Ye Qiu, think about it. If you marry someone else and become their husband, I can still sneak around with you. Isn’t that thrilling?”
Lin Jingzhi said excitedly, “It’s exciting just thinking about it.”
“I can’t hold back.”
“Husband, I want you.”
With that, Lin Jingzhi kissed Ye Qiu passionately, and a fierce battle ensued.
This time, Lin Jingzhi was wilder than ever.
After a long while, the office finally quieted down.
Ye Qiu asked, “Sister Lin, why were you so intense today?”
Lin Jingzhi said, “I’m afraid once you’re someone else’s husband, it won’t be as easy to be with you. So while you’re still mine, I want to love you fiercely.”
Ye Qiu held Lin Jingzhi tightly. “Sister Lin, no matter what, you’re the woman I love most in this life.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t marry anyone else.”
“If I start a family, it’ll be with you.”
Lin Jingzhi said, “Marrying Tangtang is the smartest choice.”
Ye Qiu shook his head. “Sister Lin, I said I won’t marry her.”
Slap!
Lin Jingzhi suddenly slapped Ye Qiu’s face, shouting, “Ye Qiu, I won’t let you be reckless.”
“You must marry Tangtang.”
“I don’t have her background. If you marry her, Old Tang will be your backer.”
“You know who Old Tang is. With that kind of support, you can do anything.”
“I’ve only got some looks and money, but I can’t help you in other ways. Tangtang can help you so much more.”
“Ye Qiu, listen to me. Marry Tangtang, okay?”
At that moment, Ye Qiu’s heart felt pierced by needles.
It hurt, deeply.
Since he and Lin Jingzhi got together, she had never lost her temper or gotten angry with him. But now, she was yelling at him.
Ye Qiu knew Lin Jingzhi was doing this entirely for his sake.
Imagine a woman willing to give her man to another, all while thinking of his best interests. How could he not love such a woman for life?
Ye Qiu said softly, “Sister Lin, thank you.”
“Meeting you is the greatest fortune of my life.”
“Back then, I was just an intern doctor at Jiangzhou Hospital, not even permanent. But since meeting you, my life has turned upside down.”
“Especially that time facing Xiao Qingdi, when you stepped up and even pulled a gun on him to protect me. That moment still plays in my mind.”
“Sister Lin, without you, I don’t know what my life would be like.”
“In short, in my heart, you’re the woman I love most in this life.”
“Sister Lin, if I marry, it’ll be you.”
“If I can’t marry you, I’ll stay single forever!”
Miracle Doctor Chapter 1019
Lin Jingzhi’s eyes welled up with tears at Ye Qiu’s words. Holding his face, she said, “Husband, why are you so foolish? You clearly have a better choice…”
Before she could finish, Ye Qiu interrupted.
“Sister Lin, to me, you are the best choice.”
With that, Ye Qiu leaned down and kissed her.
Lin Jingzhi responded passionately.
As things heated up, Ye Qiu prepared to dive in again, but Lin Jingzhi pushed him away.
“Sister Lin, what’s this?” Ye Qiu asked, puzzled.
“Save some energy for tonight to see Sister Wan,” Lin Jingzhi said. “She misses you.”
“My stamina’s fine, it won’t affect anything,” Ye Qiu said, trying to continue, only to be pushed away again.
“That was too intense earlier. I can’t handle another round,” Lin Jingzhi said. “Besides, I’ve got work to do—tons of order contracts to sign.”
Ye Qiu relented.
Meanwhile, in the presidential suite of a luxury hotel, Xu Minghui was like an enraged lion, roaring.
“Damn it!”
“Lin Jingzhi went back on her word and refused to work with me. Despicable!”
“And that Ye Qiu, bringing all those guests and media today—wasn’t that just to mess with me?”
“He even slapped me in front of everyone. I want to kill him, argh!”
Xu Minghui bellowed.
Knock knock.
A knock came at the door.
“Come in,” Xu Minghui growled.
The door opened, and his bodyguard stepped in. “Young Master, the two people I found are here.”
“Where are they?”
“Right outside.”
“Let them in,” Xu Minghui said, suppressing his anger and sitting on the sofa.
The bodyguard soon led in two foreign men.
Xu Minghui sized them up.
Both were about 1.5 meters tall, with blonde hair and blue eyes, dressed in casual clothes like students.
Xu Minghui exploded, yelling at the bodyguard, “These are the people you found?”
“I wanted assassins, not dwarves!”
“Get out! Tell them to get lost!”
The bodyguard quickly said, “Young Master, don’t underestimate them.”
“They may be short, but they’re in the top ten on the global assassin ranking.”
“I went through a lot to get them to Jiangzhou.”
Xu Minghui scoffed, “Since when did the assassin ranking’s standards drop so low?”
“These guys in the top ten? What a joke!”
“Get them out now—”
At that moment, the foreigner on the left flicked his right hand.
A cold flash grazed Xu Minghui’s cheek.
Xu Minghui jumped, turning to see a dagger embedded in the wall behind him, only the handle visible.
This was a concrete wall.
Xu Minghui broke out in a cold sweat.
“Mr. Xu, you’re quite rude, calling us dwarves. In the past, that blade would’ve slit your throat,” the left foreigner said in fluent Chinese, making a throat-cutting gesture.
Xu Minghui shrank back.
“Young Master, these are the Smith brothers. They’re truly skilled. With them, Ye Qiu’s done for,” the bodyguard said.
Xu Minghui’s attitude shifted to respect. “Gentlemen, I was out of line earlier. My apologies.”
“Please, have a seat.”
“Care for a drink? I have fine wine.”
The Smith brothers weren’t interested.
“Mr. Xu, we crossed oceans to get here, not to drink your wine.”
“We’ve had drinks with presidents in the Middle East.”
“Let’s not waste time.”
“We’re here to ask if you have any specific instructions. Or rather, how do you want Ye Qiu to die?”
Hatred flashed in Xu Minghui’s eyes. “I want Ye Qiu to suffer as much as possible.”
“Torture him, make him wish he were dead.”
“Then let him die in agony.”
The Smith brothers grinned. “Easy.”
“We specialize in making people die in pain.”
“Mr. Xu, how about this: we carve the flesh off Ye Qiu piece by piece, then bury him alive. Sound good?”
Xu Minghui was thrilled. “Perfect, that’s perfect!”
“Gentlemen, if you pull this off, I’ll reward you handsomely.”
“When do you plan to act?”
The Smith brothers said, “Tonight.”
“The sooner we kill the target, the sooner we get paid, right?”
Xu Minghui, thinking Ye Qiu wouldn’t survive the night, was elated. “Excellent.”
“Gentlemen, I’m counting on you.”
“Oh, you won’t reveal the client’s identity, right?”
Before the Smith brothers could respond, the bodyguard said, “Young Master, rest assured.”
“The first rule of assassins is never to reveal the client’s identity.”
“The Smith brothers are professionals; they’ll follow the code.”
Xu Minghui laughed. “Good, good.”
“Mr. Xu, we won’t disturb you further. Wait for our good news!”
“Goodbye!”
The Smith brothers left the suite swiftly.
Xu Minghui sat on the sofa and instructed the bodyguard, “Get me a case of ’82 Lafite later. I’m celebrating tonight.”
“And find me a woman.”
“Last night’s was awful, like a corpse, no reaction, and her screams were like a ghost’s. I wasn’t pleased.”
“No need for a celebrity. Get me a model—fair-skinned, beautiful, busty, long legs, the wilder the better. She needs to be uninhibited.”
“Go handle it!”
…
That afternoon, Ye Qiu picked up Qin Wan from the beauty salon, and they had dinner together.
“Sister Wan, where to next? Home or a hotel?” Ye Qiu asked.
“Hotel. Xixi’s at home with a nanny, so going back isn’t convenient,” Qin Wan said, blushing.
“Alright, your call.”
Ye Qiu drove Qin Wan toward the hotel.
On the way, he keenly noticed a car tailing him.
A cold smile curled Ye Qiu’s lips as he steered into a secluded alley.
“Why’d you drive here? Aren’t we going to a hotel?” Qin Wan asked, confused.
“There’s a tail. Sister Wan, wait a bit. I’ll deal with them.”
Ye Qiu got out of the car.
Miracle Doctor Chapter 1020
Ye Qiu had just stepped out of the car when the vehicle behind him came to a stop. Two foreigners emerged from it.
A chilling aura of menace emanated from them.
Ye Qiu glanced at the foreigners and asked calmly, “Assassins?”
“Heh, you’ve got a sharp eye, kid. Shame you’re about to die.”
The Smith brothers said, “Someone paid for your life.”
Ye Qiu replied, “Xu Minghui sent you, didn’t he?”
The Smith brothers exchanged a look, clearly surprised that Ye Qiu had so quickly identified their employer.
That small gesture confirmed Ye Qiu’s suspicion.
In truth, Ye Qiu had only asked casually, as the only person he’d recently crossed was Xu Minghui.
To his surprise, these assassins had no acting skills to speak of and had instantly betrayed their employer’s identity.
“Xu Minghui hired you two fools to kill me? What an idiot,” Ye Qiu scoffed.
Anger flared in the Smith brothers’ eyes.
Over the years, they’d roamed the world, eliminating international dignitaries and renowned tycoons. Being called fools was an insult they couldn’t bear.
“Big talk for a kid, daring to call us fools. Do you even know who we are?”
“Let us enlighten you, we’re in the top ten of the global assassin rankings.”
“Kid, prepare to die!”
With that, the Smith brothers each drew a dagger and advanced towards Ye Qiu.
At that moment, two streaks of sword energy struck with astonishing speed.
Before the Smith brothers could react, a bloody hole appeared in each of their chests.
“This…”
The Smith brothers stared at Ye Qiu in terror.
Ten seconds later, they collapsed, lifeless.
Their eyes remained open in death.
“Trash like you thought you could kill me? Like flies swatting at a tiger’s back, seeking death.”
Ye Qiu finished speaking, took out a vial of corpse-dissolving powder, and sprinkled it over the bodies.
Soon, a pungent stench filled the air as the Smith brothers’ corpses melted into a puddle at a visible rate.
Ye Qiu returned to his car and drove with Qin Wan straight to the hotel.
The two had a passionate encounter at the hotel.
Late at night, while Qin Wan slept soundly, Ye Qiu quietly slipped out of the hotel.
…
Meanwhile, at another hotel, in the presidential suite, Xu Minghui was still awake, waiting for good news from the Smith brothers.
He waited and waited, but no word came.
At that moment, a female model his bodyguard had arranged for poked her head out from the bedroom, cooing, “Boss, when are we going to bed?”
“I’ve already bathed three times.”
“Come on, hurry up~”
Xu Minghui instructed his bodyguard, “Contact the Smith brothers later and find out what’s taking so long. Why haven’t they reported back?”
“If the job’s done, let me know immediately.”
“And once it’s complete, make sure to transfer the final payment to them.”
“People like the Smith brothers can’t be crossed; we might need them again in the future.”
The bodyguard nodded, “Understood. Boss, you rest now. I’ll notify you if there’s news.”
“Mm.” Xu Minghui entered the bedroom.
Soon, he was entangled with the female model.
She was uninhibited and skilled, her moans particularly evocative, keeping Xu Minghui thoroughly engrossed.
In his excitement, Xu Minghui turned off the light, closed his eyes, and imagined the model as Lin Jingzhi.
“Lin Jingzhi, you filthy woman, I’m going to have my way with you.”
Xu Minghui was breathless with exertion.
Unbeknownst to him, a figure had silently appeared in the room.
It was none other than Ye Qiu.
Hearing Xu Minghui call out Lin Jingzhi’s name, Ye Qiu’s killing intent surged. He swiftly inscribed a talisman and sent it into Xu Minghui’s body.
Instantly, Xu Minghui seemed to be under the influence of a drug, his stamina soaring, tireless.
Ye Qiu then left the room as silently as he’d arrived.
The next day, a news story shook Jiangzhou.
“Xu Minghui, general manager of the Xu Group, died from overexertion in a Jiangzhou hotel.”
“According to sources, Xu Minghui died in the arms of a woman.”
…
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
The weather grew colder.
During this time, Ye Qiu spent his days treating patients at the hospital and his nights cultivating at home.
On the seventh day of the tenth lunar month, a Monday, Ye Qiu attended the hospital’s routine meeting in the morning, then led the Chinese medicine department’s doctors on ward rounds.
After finishing these tasks, he continued seeing patients.
At six in the evening, after work, Ye Qiu invited his colleagues from the Chinese medicine department to dine at the Dihao Hotel.
As they reached the hospital entrance, an old man stopped Ye Qiu.
The man had a short, cropped haircut, a lean face, and wore a black Tang suit. He appeared to be at least seventy years old.
“Are you Ye Qiu?” the old man asked.
“That’s me,” Ye Qiu nodded slightly, puzzled. “Sir, are you looking for me?”
“I want you to treat me,” the old man said.
Fu Yanjie interjected, “Old man, if you want to see the director, come back another day. Make sure to book an appointment online in advance, or you won’t get a slot.”
The old man ignored Fu Yanjie, looking at Ye Qiu and saying, “I’ve heard you’re the greatest medical sage in Chinese medicine in three hundred years, capable of curing any illness.”
“I don’t believe it.”
“So, I’ve travelled here from out of town to see if you’re truly skilled or just a fraud.”
Before Ye Qiu could respond, Fu Yanjie snapped, “How dare you talk like that, old man?”
“Our director earned the title of medical sage through real skill.”
“I’m not bragging, but no one in the world surpasses our director’s medical expertise…”
“Little Fatty!” Ye Qiu raised a hand to interrupt Fu Yanjie, saying, “This gentleman has come from afar to seek my treatment. That shows trust in me. Say less.”
The old man said, “Whether you’re truly skilled will be clear with a test.”
Ye Qiu asked, “Sir, what’s troubling you?”
“You’re a medical sage, can’t you tell?” the old man’s tone was sharp as he extended his left hand to Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu grasped the old man’s wrist, checked his pulse for a moment, and said, “Sir, you’re in good health, no illnesses.”
The old man smiled, “You’re correct, I’m not sick.”
“Then you’re just messing around…” Fu Yanjie began, but a glance from the old man silenced him.
In an instant, Fu Yanjie felt as if he’d been plunged into an icy abyss, his hair standing on end.
The old man’s gaze was terrifying, like a sea of blood and corpses.
Fu Yanjie swallowed hard, frightened.
Ye Qiu also sensed that this old man was no ordinary person and asked, “Sir, since you’re not ill, why seek me out?”
“Is there something else you need?”
“May I have your name?”
The old man grinned, “I’m called Long Er!”
