Xu Xiyun was incensed. His demeanor hardened as he confronted the situation, exclaiming, “You want to die!”

Before he could act, Xie Yu restrained Lou Lianghua’s shoulders.

Lou Lianghua felt a numbness spread through his body, as if all his strength had been sapped. He collapsed to the ground in an instant.

“Finished speaking?” Xie Yu looked down at him condescendingly. “Should I help you roll out of here?”

Lou Lianghua clenched his teeth. No one wanted to confront Xie Yu.

It was well-known that Xie Yu was on the verge of debuting as the undisputed number one.

But Xu Xiyun was different; he would eventually have to make way for him.

Grudgingly, Lou Lianghua struggled to his feet and ran off hastily.

From the lead car emerged a young man in a white shirt.

He carried the air of a noble gentleman who seemed to have stepped right out of a literary work. With an air of understated elegance, he approached.

“Miss Si,” Lin Qingchen greeted, extending his hand, “Hello, I’ve spoken with Shiyan. ”

“Hello, Mr. Lin,” Si Fuqing replied, shaking his hand. “Thank you for providing the equipment.”

“It’s all here,” Lin Qingchen said with a slight smile, looking forward to their collaboration.

Shang Lu hurried to assist Lin Qingchen’s assistant in moving the medical equipment into the operating room.

Si Fuqing went to change into surgical attire.

“Dr. Lin, this is a peculiar case,” the assistant remarked, examining the medical report. “Are you absolutely certain?”

The report detailed Grandma Xu’s long-standing headache, untraceable by numerous X-rays and tests.

The doctors had hesitated to operate, opting instead for medication.

The assistant, having worked with Lin Qingchen for years and witnessed many complex cases, found this one particularly baffling.

If the surgery failed…

“Teacher, your reputation is at stake,” the assistant couldn’t help but say.

“What’s my reputation compared to saving lives?” Lin Qingchen replied, preparing his medical tools with a soft smile. “I am a doctor; my duty is to heal.

The assistant was taken aback.

“I’m not entirely sure,” Lin Qingchen admitted, donning surgical gloves. “That’s why I’m here to assist.”

The assistant was shocked.

Lin Qingchen, the brilliant young doctor ofSijiu, was herejust to assist?

Assist whom?

His gaze froze on Si Fuqing, who had donned her surgical attire. His mind stopped working.

Surely not this young lady?!

Following Si Fuqing into the operating room, Lin Qingchen politely offered, “After you, Miss Si.”

The assistant’s brain was completely fried.

Two hours later, the doors of the operating room opened.

Si Fuqing emerged first, removing her mask. “The surgery went smoothly.

Thank you, Dr. Lin. You must be tired from your journey. Please rest.”

Lin Qingchen shook his head with a smile. “You’re too kind, Miss Si. I didn’t exert much effort. I’ll wait here for Shiyan. Don’t mind me.”

Si Fuqing nodded.

Her phone rang.

It was Jiang Changning on the line.

“I’m at the hospital,” she said. “Something came up.”

“At the hospital?” Jiang Changning’s voice changed. “Did you put someone in there? Is it going to cost a lot in medical fees?”

Si Fuqing was silent for a moment, then slowly responded, “Do you have some misunderstanding about me?”

Did she really think she was so violent?

“Oh that’s not the case,” Jiang Changning breathed a sigh of relief. “Which hospital are you at? I’ll come to you.”

“Let’s meet at our burger place,” she suggested. “I haven’t eaten yet. I’ll get a beef burger.”

“Brother, I have a friend at the hospital. I’m going to check on her,” she said, turning to the young man in a hoodie following her. “Maybe you can find a bubble tea shop to sit in for a while?”

Hearing this, Jiang Changfeng’s interest seemed piqued. “Is this the friend you mentioned? The one who gave you the hand cream?”

“Don’t get any ideas about her,” Jiang Changning warned. “Otherwise, I’ll mix laxatives in your food and leave you incapacitated.” Jiang Changfeng didn’t want know to say.

She was indeed his biological sister.

With a hint of resignation, he acknowledged, “Alright, you go ahead.” He adjusted his hoodie and decided to wander on his own.

“Mhmm,” Jiang Changning replied, walking away. Then, as if remembering something important, she turned back to her brother. “Brother, it’s your first time in the city, so be careful. That’s a bus stop, and that’s a subway station.”

Jiang Changfeng took a deep breath, “You can just go.”

He wasn’t so out of touch as to not recognize these basic urban fixtures.

Jiang Changning finally left, feeling reassured.

Upon arriving at the burger shop, she found Si Fuqing leaning against the wall, sipping a coke after finishing three burgers.

“What happened? Why were you at the hospital?” Jiang Changning asked, walking over.

“It’s nothing serious,” Si Fuqing replied, tilting her head back slightly. “Just didn’t want to see a star fall, a dream shattered. It’s quite cruel.”

Jiang Changning frowned in concern. “Sisi?”

“Right, Ningning,” Si Fuqing turned to her, “I never asked, why did you join the entertainment industry?”

“You might not believe me,” Jiang Changning pressed her forehead, somewhat embarrassed. “My mom thinks I have zero appeal to the opposite sex. She said there are many good-looking people in the entertainment industry, so I should pick one to marry into their family.”

Si Fuqing was momentarily speechless.

That was quite a modern-minded mother.

“Now I have another task: to find a partner for my brother,” Jiang Changning continued with a sigh. “My brother is quite handsome, but he’s got an odd temper. I wouldn’t introduce you to him.”

Si Fuqing choked on her drink, hastily clarifying, “No, no, I’m not interested in dating.”

After a pause, she added lazily, “Besides, I already have a lover.” “Who?” Jiang Changning was surprised. “Your boss?”

“Eh? That’s partly right and partly wrong, ” Si Fuqing said earnestly. “My lover is money!”

Hearing this, the little white creature in her bag joyfully tumbled around.

It shared the same love interest as its master!

Jiang Changning was speechless.

Classic Si Fuqing.

“I’m heading back to the training camp,” Si Fuqing said, her eyes and expression relaxed. “Also, my house burned down, so I’m temporarily staying at my boss’s place. Call me first if you need to find me.”

Jiang Changning looked at her with a complex expression. “You really have it tough.”

This further solidified her resolve to help Si Fuqing.

After parting ways, Jiang Changning found a coffee shop and logged onto a trading website.

She uploaded photos of the herbs she had harvested, along with their certification, and set the auction and buy-now prices.

Within seconds of posting, all ten herbs were sold. The comments section

[Damn! Ten herbs?? I’m crying, I’m too late!]

[Wait, what kind of seller are you, selling them like cabbages? I’d have to dig in the Lonely Mountain Gorge and might not even find any!] [A new account? Who’s the big shot behind this account?]

Jiang Changning didn’t linger on the comments and logged out.

She pondered as she saw her account balance increase by fifteen million.

Perhaps returning home to farm wasn’t such a bad prospect.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Would her father be angry about the missing ten herbs?

Probably not.

If discovered, she could always blame her brother.

A clever strategy indeed.

Meanwhile, Si Fuqing didn’t ride her bike. She turned left and right, eventually entering an alley.

After she stopped for a few seconds, she spoke calmly, “Come out.”

Silence followed, then footsteps echoed in the empty alley.

Si Fuqing turned, squinting her eyes.

In front of her stood a young man in a hoodie, carrying a large backpack with unknown contents.

“It’s you, isn’t it?” Jiang Changfeng removed his hood, half his face lit by the sunlight, his expression unclear.

“The Heavenly Doctor Ghosthand..”
