Shen Mengjia was relatively calm. Although she could not accept it either at first, she at least knew that this was not a dream!
Right now, her father’s eyes were filled with life, as though he had just come back from the brink of death.
Those were emotions only humans had!
Suddenly, the image of that young man’s back flashed through her mind.
It was arrogant, cold, and lonely.
“He… He actually did it… But how…?”
Only then did Shen Mengjia realize how childish she had been.
From the very start, that man had not told a single lie!
Yet, she only ever considered him a fraud.
She did not stand up for him when he needed her the most!
Shen Mengjia clapped her hand to her mouth to stop herself from screaming. Her eyes grew moist, and the tears trickled down her face and onto the floor, one drop at a time.
Just then, inside the patient’s room, Madam and Master Shen were hugging each other tightly.
“Haihua, this isn’t a dream, right? Pinch me?”
Shen Haihua reached out his hand to wipe Madam Shen’s tears. “Yanfang, this isn’t a dream. I really came back to life! Oh, yeah! What about that miracle doctor? Where is he? I have to thank him properly. Without him, I probably would’ve died a long time ago…”
Shen Haihua may have been unconscious, but he was still aware of Ye Chen’s presence and the entire procedure Ye Chen had performed to rescue him.
That was not the work of a human!
He was practically a deity on earth!
Even if they did not make friends with such a man, they must never make an enemy out of him!
He could control your destiny! He could control others’ lives!
A man like that transcended all the petty squabbles of power and wealth!
However, no one replied to Shen Haihua’s question. The entire room went completely silent, such that even the dropping of a pin would be clearly audible.
Master Shen sensed something amiss, and his expression darkened in an instant. “One of you, explain!”
Finally, Shen Mengjia stepped forth and told him about everything that had happened.
When he heard the entire story, Master Shen disregarded his body and immediately stood up, using all the strength he had left to slap Shen Menglong in the face!
“Idiot! You stupid idiot! You… You angered the miracle doctor away! You useless piece of trash! Do you want to see me die that badly? From today onwards, you won’t get a cent from me. You’re no longer my son!”
Shen Menglong panicked, this time for real!
His father’s wrath was not something he could withstand!
His sports cars, his women, his entire life of luxury—they were all funded by his father’s wallet!
Now, with just a few words from his father’s mouth, he would be left with nothing!
“No, Dad, don’t! I’m sorry!”
Shen Haihua ignored his son and turned to Miracle Doctor Qiu, who had his head lowered.
“As for you!”
He kicked Miracle Doctor Qiu mercilessly!
“You stuck-up dogs, I can’t believe you insulted the miracle doctor like that! I’m telling you, if you can’t find that miracle doctor again, I swear I’ll have all of your heads!”
Shen Haihua was well and truly angry!
He was awake now, but he knew that he would not last more than three days!
If they did not get that miracle doctor to help him, he would be dead without a doubt!
That was why his priority now was to find that miracle doctor!
“Find him, all of you! You have to find him even if it means turning River City upside down! Aside from Yanfang, all of you can get the hell out of the Shen family! And don’t come back until you find that young miracle doctor!”
He did not only aim those words at Shen Menglong and Miracle Doctor Qiu!
He was addressing Shen Mengjia and Xiao Min as well!
If someone had just stepped forth and believed in the miracle doctor, they would not be in this mess right now!
Was it too much to pay sixty million for a life?
Not at all!
In fact, it was an unbelievable bargain!
After all, Shen Haihua could earn a hundred million in a month!
As for the situation right now?
He, Shen Haihua, only had three more days to live!
…
At the same time, in the Magnificent Group’s conference room.
The atmosphere was unnaturally heavy.
That was because just a few hours ago, the Magnificent Group’s stocks had crashed drastically. It was the biggest crisis they had faced since Xia Ruoxue first started the Magnificent Group.
According to the Magnificent Group PR department’s investigations, their stocks were falling so rapidly because their business rival, the Charming Star Beauty Corporation, had introduced a new oral beauty solution. Ladies just had to drink one portion, and both their skin and features would improve visibly.
Although the oral beauty solution was not available on the market yet, some reporters had tried a sample at the grand reveal, and they had personally experienced some effects.
While these effects were minuscule, they were of immense importance to women!
The outside world believed that the Charming Star Beauty Corporation would be able to change the entire form of the beauty industry, leaving Jiangnan’s current champion, the Magnificent Group, in their dust.
In their earliest days, the Magnificent Group had also taken the top spot by virtue of their oral beauty solutions. Over the past few years, these solutions had also been the main source of their income. Now that an even better product had been created by their rivals from Capital City, they were at a dead end!
Sun Yi had arrived soon enough, and on the way, she had more or less gotten the general picture of the situation through their WeChat group. She looked around her and saw that those on her left were higher-ups who rarely ever showed up, whereas those on her right were the core members of the Magnificent Group’s R&D department.
These core members were not your ordinary Joes. Some were professors from Capital City’s medical university, some had been traditional Chinese medicine practitioners for years, and some were even mammoths of the medical world!
Now, however, all of these experts were stone-faced, because they knew very well that the first party Xia Ruoxue would turn on once she came into this conference room was none other than themselves!
The entire conference room was a mess of voices, and some people kept trying to chat Sun Yi up, but she was in no mood to respond. All she could think of was Ye Chen’s back, and she found herself wondering if Ye Chen would come home that night.
Suddenly, Sun Yi remembered something and took the serviette Ye Chen had given her out of her pocket.
There were a few lines scribbled onto it, but she could not read them. Were they herbs, perhaps? All she could read were the words “Beginner-level Beauty Pill” printed in large font at the very top.
When she remembered how Ye Chen had said such a piece of paper was worth ten million, she kind of felt like laughing.
Ye Chen had even told her to show the paper to her R&D department. That left her feeling rather exasperated.
Everyone in the R&D department was a superstar in the medical world. Why would they ever look at this strange serviette?
For all Sun Yi knew, she might end up as the laughing stock of the entire Magnificent Group.
“Sigh, that guy’s nice and all, but he’s so impractical,” Sun Yi muttered to herself.
“Yo, Sun Yi, you thinking of a man? You look like your heart got stolen!”
Suddenly, a woman’s voice rang out by Sun Yi’s ears, giving her a shock.
Sun Yi looked at the source of the voice, and her expression immediately soured. The one who spoke was none other than the Magnificent Group’s PR Director, Su Na.
Over all these years Sun Yi had been working with the Magnificent Group, she got along pretty well with everyone. The only exception was this woman, Su Na.
The two of them were like cats and dogs, and they would squabble every time they met.
Su Na managed to bag a wealthy businessman a few days ago, and she had been showing off in front of Sun Yi ever since. She even demanded to know why Sun Yi was single in front of everyone in the company, saying unspeakable things like suggesting that Sun Yi was a mistress or a whore. They had even fought over it.
Sun Yi rolled her eyes at Su Na, harrumphing coldly, “What’s it to do with you if I’m thinking of a man or not? You should just mind your own business.”
Su Na retorted relentlessly, “Oh, how could a mistress like you talk to me like that? You’re such a slut, I bet you’ve been f*cked by more people than you can count.”
“You—b*tch!” Sun Yi was so furious that she stood up abruptly and was about to curse back when she realized that Su Na had taken away the serviette in her hands!
