Chapter Thirty-Nine: Sitting on the Sidelines



Tian Zaizhong wasn't angry. He stroked his white beard and laughed, "That's perfect. I've wanted to retire for a long time."

"Butler, please see Teacher Ge out carefully. It's rare for Teacher Ge to come to visit, but I'm not feeling well today, so I can't see you off in person."

Ge Qingyun walked out with a dark face, wishing he could kick Tian Zaizhong's door.

"That weird old man! How come I never realized he was so despicable before?"

Lin Yang didn't get angry, but simply said, "There's still one more place, let's go for it."

Su Xiaoxiao, wearing a light green cardigan, was sitting in her family's traditional Chinese medicine clinic, presiding over the business.

There were still patients queuing up inside her traditional Chinese medicine clinic.

She herself, however, was sitting in her spacious office playing chess.

"Mr. Ge, what a rare guest!"

Who is this?

Su Xiaoxiao was a straightforward person; she glanced at Lin Yang and asked.

Ge Qingyun felt there might be some hope this time, and enthusiastically praised Lin Yang.

"This is the boyfriend of the president of the Wang Group, a genius doctor at the Chinese medicine clinic. You know Chairman Zhang's daughter, right? He cured her!"

Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyelids and said to Lin Yang, "Sit down."

Ge Qingyun immediately made the suggestion.

Su Xiaoxiao put down the chess piece in her hand and chuckled, "I already have my own clinic. Does Elder Ge want me to close it down?"

"No way! You could become an honorary doctor!"

Su Xiaoxiao readily agreed, "I should have gone, since it was Elder Ge who came in person, but isn't this rising star supposed to be a miracle doctor? The Wang Group trusts him so much, so I trust him too."

Ge Qingyun smiled and said, "Oh, so that means you agreed?"

“Since I trust him, I know he can do it himself. Why would I go and get an honorary title? To be honest, I’m worried about being outshone by this miracle doctor. Old Ge, you should think it over again. Be careful not to ruin your old age.”

Unexpectedly, Su Xiaoxiao not only refused to go herself, but also tried to persuade Old Ge to withdraw.

Old Ge looked unpleasant, but he couldn't lash out.

"Don't you think about it? Once the TCM clinics open, the two of us will become competitors?"

Su Xiaoxiao chuckled.

"Really? According to Elder Ge, all hospitals in the world are competitors, so shouldn't we only open one hospital?"

Lin Yang stood up and advised Elder Ge, "Elder Su has already made his point very clear, so we don't need to waste our breath."

Su Xiaoxiao pointed at Lin Yang with her finger: "That's right. We're all doing our own thing, treating and saving lives. Why do we have to gather in one place?"

They were all spouting grand principles, but frankly, it all boiled down to them looking down on Lin Yang and not giving him face.

Ge Qingyun, on the other hand, was inspired to fight by Su Xiaoxiao.

"There are quite a few famous doctors under the four major families. I'll make a list, and we'll invite them over. I want to see just how many blind fools there are!"

Actually, going through this process is no longer necessary.

Most of these renowned doctors were disciples of the four major families, while the other half had connections with them.

Even Ge Lao's disciples only politely made excuses.

Others received instructions from above to avoid meeting them if possible, and even if they couldn't escape and encountered them, they would politely and modestly postpone the meeting.

Ge Qingyun tried to save face but failed to invite a single person, a fact that spread throughout the traditional Chinese medicine community.

Not wanting to put Ge Qingyun in a difficult position, Lin Yang said, "You organize a meeting and gather them all together. Words are not enough; let me convince them with my strength."

Ge Qingyun agreed, then thought for a moment and said, "I'll have to ask Chairman Zhang for help with this."

When Zhang Fu received Lin Yang's call, he readily agreed to help.

"Perfect timing. I'm organizing an event and I'll be posting invitations to their TCM clinic. They'll still give me face."

"However, you'll have to wait until after the event to do anything."

Lin Yang agreed and expressed his gratitude.

Taking the opportunity, Zhang Fu said, "Dr. Lin, there's no need to be so polite. Ever since you saved my youngest daughter, she's been thinking about you every day. I can't refuse you out of consideration for her."

Lin Yang smiled and said, understanding the implication in the words, "Saving lives is a doctor's duty, Miss Zhang, you don't need to be so polite."

Zhang Fu chuckled and said, "It's alright, young people can be friends too!"

Three days later, at the banquet, Zhang Fu's youngest daughter, dressed like a porcelain doll, stood on tiptoe at the door, peering longingly at the people getting out of the luxury cars.

After finally waiting for Lin Yang, they saw that Wang Yuwei was holding Lin Yang's arm.

She looked at Wang Yuwei's captivating charm and stunning figure, then at herself, realizing she hadn't fully blossomed yet, and felt extremely inferior. She turned and left.

Lin Yang saw her and immediately went up to greet her.

"Ms. Zhang, are you feeling better now?"

Zhang Yun'er just smiled faintly, her eyes brimming with tears, and turned to leave.

Wang Yuwei tugged at Lin Yang's sleeve: "You've hurt that young girl's feelings."

Lin Yang then deliberately said, "Really? Then I'll go and comfort her."

Wang Yuwei refused to let go, and said coquettishly, "You, I won't let you go!"

After saying that, Wang Yuwei tried to justify herself: "You're only making her more and more trapped. It's better to end it now than to suffer for a long time. The girl will understand eventually."

When Zhang Fu saw his daughter running away crying, he immediately chased after her.

"Did Lin Yang bully you?"

"No, he's just too good to me, and that makes me happy."

Hearing this, Zhang Fu sighed indulgently, "You silly child, it doesn't count as marriage if you're not married yet, and you can't just steal her away! How could my daughter, Zhang Fu's daughter, be so spineless!"

Hearing this, Zhang Yun'er wiped away her tears and asked timidly, "Do I still have a chance? I feel like I'm completely inferior to the person beside him."

"Different strokes for different folks. Love requires strategy. Do you think my daughter, Zhang Fu's daughter, is no match for the Wang family?"

Zhang Qing, who was present at the scene, heard these words and couldn't help but sneer.

"That good-for-nothing Lin Yang actually won the favor of Miss Zhang. He's really hit the jackpot!"

Liu Ziyu took a sip of champagne and looked Zhang Yun'er up and down: "This child isn't fully developed yet, is she? But her legs are quite long and straight, and her waist is quite slender."

Zhang Qing rolled her eyes at Liu Ziyu: "Why don't you go and snatch it yourself? If you can become Zhang Fu's son-in-law, you'll never have to worry about anything for the rest of your life!"

Liu Ziyu, after all, lived off the assets of Lin Yang that Zhang Qing had seized, and he was even more reluctant to part with the sensuality that Zhang Qing had developed. Taking advantage of a moment when no one was looking, he rubbed Zhang Qing's pert buttocks.

Ugh, how annoying!

Zhang Qing looked at her man with satisfaction, crossed her arms, and turned to look at Lin Yang with amusement.

At this moment, Lin Yang was holding Wang Yuwei's arm, and the two seemed to be very sweet and proud.

Zhang Qing was full of confidence, and the more she looked at Wang Yuwei, the more she felt that Wang Yuwei was her substitute.

"Zhang Yun'er is dreaming. Lin Yang is still thinking about me. Little does she know that my real opponent is me!"
