Chapter 692: Subtext.
Li You replied coldly, "I know," and hung up the phone.
Afterwards, Li You called Bian Zhi.
"What should we do next?"
Bian Zhi was eating grapes in the office at that time. Lin Su said very attentively that she knew a master of traditional Chinese medicine who knew a secret recipe and could help her regulate her body.
When talking about the master of traditional Chinese medicine, Bian Zhi raised his eyebrows. An Xinran, who was standing beside him, glanced at Bian Zhi who remained expressionless. Seeing that Bian Zhi seemed to be smiling, she understood what he was thinking and stood aside without saying a word.
After what happened at the hospital, everyone at Anxin Hospital knew that Bian Zhi was Lin Guoxiong's apprentice, but no one in North America knew about Bian Zhi's attainments in traditional Chinese medicine.
Apart from An Xinran, who knew about this situation without hiding it from Li You and Bian Zhi, Lin Su was unaware of it.
She kept bragging to Bian Zhi, "Boss Bian, this Chinese doctor is really amazing. I was recommended to him by someone. I used to have irregular menstruation and chest tightness, but guess what? After taking this Chinese doctor's medicine for two days, my menstruation came. And since then, my menstruation has been very regular every month.
This Chinese medicine doctor is particularly accomplished in preserving pregnancy. We had a girl in our hospital before who had a miscarriage early in her pregnancy. After that, she had repeated miscarriages every time she got pregnant. Seeing how distressed she was, I introduced her to this Chinese medicine doctor. Guess what happened?
Bian Zhi smiled and lazily cooperated with Lin Su, "What's going on?"
"I took this Chinese medicine for more than half a month, and it was cured! Later, she gave birth to a chubby, fair boy. She is so grateful to me that she gives me gifts every holiday and even lets the child call me godmother. Isn't that amazing?"
Bian Zhi was bored at the moment, so he deliberately said "ah" in a disapproving tone, "I have to drink Chinese medicine for half a month."
Seeing Bian Zhi's disgusted look, Lin Su immediately changed her tone, "A week is fine. This doctor is a miracle doctor. A week is fine."
Bian Zhi chuckled, "Oh, that's amazing. But, you haven't even asked this Chinese medicine practitioner, so how can you answer for her?"
Lin Su was stunned, thinking, "I was careless!" He quickly smiled and said, "Well, the routine operation of a miracle doctor like me only takes a week. Your case is not serious. One week is enough, enough."
Bian Zhi nodded, "Okay, then please call this miracle doctor over to take a look at me."
Lin Su didn't expect Bian Zhi to agree so readily. She thought about it for a while, then smiled awkwardly and said to Bian Zhi, "Boss Bian, there's something I need to tell you in advance. Chinese medicine consultations are quite expensive. You have a big family and a lot of money, so you won't mind the money, right?"
Before Bian Zhi could answer, this person took over the conversation.
Bian Zhi understood.
This is about making money from yourself.
"Oh, how much is it for one visit?"
"A miracle doctor," Lin Su felt that at this point in the conversation, Bian Zhi had fallen into the trap. For a CEO of such a big company, a little money was nothing.
So she confidently stretched out five fingers.
Bian Zhi took a look and saw An Xinran frowning beside him. She couldn't help but ask, "Five hundred?"
Lin Su looked at An Xinran with a look that said, "An Xinran, have you ever seen the world?" Then, she waved her five fingers.
An Xinran frowned even tighter, "Don't tell me it costs five thousand to see it once?"
Five thousand yuan for a visit, when did Chinese medicine become so expensive!
Isn't this clearly an attempt to extort money from someone?
"Five thousand?!"
Lin Su choked, "Where can you find a miracle doctor for five thousand? The doctor you find is only a half-baked one. One visit costs five hundred thousand."
"Five--" An Xinran looked at Lin Su speechlessly, "Lin Su, who do you think you are?"
"Five hundred thousand, why don't you just rob a bank!"
"Do you know how much a Chinese medicine doctor's registration fee is in China? A nationally renowned doctor would charge five or five hundred thousand at most. Do you think the people here are as clueless as you?"
"Who are you calling brainless?" Lin Su immediately became excited. She was not interested in being a doctor, but just wanted to make money. She made a ruthless decision and decided to leave after earning enough money from Bian Zhi. She could earn 500,000 yuan a week and then go find a quack. She could get nearly 500,000 yuan in kickbacks. It wouldn't take much. After four visits, she could get 2 million yuan and leave. Who would want to go back to that crappy hospital?
Besides, Bian Zhi is the CEO of Huo's company and has plenty of money. If she doesn't bid higher, the other party may not trust her. She said she is a miracle doctor, so she has to bid higher. "Do you think he is a common Chinese medicine doctor, An Xinran? You don't understand. Stop talking nonsense here!"
"Boss Bian, he's truly a miracle doctor. He's not short of money; he's just doing good deeds to accumulate virtue. I only dared to recommend him because I see how difficult it is for you to have a child. You said, if you're not careful and the child is gone, it won't just be a matter of hundreds of thousands of dollars, right?"
As Lin Su, she was very good at making the patient's condition sound serious and making him feel uneasy.
Bian Zhi smiled and tilted her head to look at Lin Su in front of her.
I think this girl is not only stupid but also stupid. She must have read a lot of medical books over the years.
He actually asked for 500,000 yuan.
Since the other party treated her as two million, she couldn't let Lin Su down. Besides, if she didn't cooperate, how could she trick Butler Li, who was far away in the country, back?
"Okay, I'm not short of money," Bian Zhi put his palm on his stomach, pretending to be a local tycoon for the first time in his life, "Then call this miracle doctor over. If it's inconvenient, I'll have the driver go with you to pick him up."
"Oh, no need," Lin Su was very excited, as if she had already seen the 500,000 yuan that was about to come into her hands. "Every miracle doctor has his own personality. He doesn't like people to take him over. Just wait patiently. I'll arrange it right away."
As she spoke, Lin Su glanced at An Xinran with a smug look, then walked away with a twist of her waist.
After confirming that the person had left, An Xinran closed her eyes and couldn't bear it any longer. "Just now, that person really slapped her in the face."
Bian Zhi smiled and said jokingly, "That won't do. People have to help me find a miracle doctor."
An Xinran didn't know what Bian Zhi's plan was, but she fully understood that Bian Zhi had his own things to plan and implement.
"Okay, I understand." An Xinran answered dutifully.
Bian Zhi lowered his head to read a book, and suddenly reminded An Xinran lightly, "Someone, when you came here, specifically asked me to take care of you."
An Xinran looked at Bian Zhi.
Bian Zhi said, "I know you're a smart girl, but since someone has spoken, I'd still like to warn you. Lin Su isn't dangerous, but the people behind her are. Don't get into conflict with her recently. Just avoid whatever she says and be patient."
The two words "someone" sounded profound to Bian Zhi.
An Xinran lowered her eyes, "Yeah."
"Also," Bian Zhi added, "He didn't come over these past two days because he was concerned about your safety, not because he didn't want to see you."
An Xinran pursed her lips and said one thing and meant another, "He doesn't like me, it doesn't matter whether we meet or not."
Bian Zhi glanced at An Xinran and said, "Oh."
An Xinran thought Bian Zhi would say something else, but Bian Zhi just said "Oh" and nothing else, which made An Xinran stand aside with a thousand ants crawling in her heart.
An Xinran felt that she was not very familiar with Bian Zhi, but for some reason, she felt a strong desire to share when facing Bian Zhi.
So, after pausing for a few seconds, An Xinran spoke again in a low voice.
"I don't know why he always rejects me."
"I can clearly feel that he likes me to some extent, but every time he has a little bit of ambiguous interaction with me, he disappears completely. He is so cowardly."
Bian Zhi didn't expect An Xinran to speak to him so quickly.
She smiled, then paused, and then asked An Xinran directly, "Li You is the first man you like, so what do you think about the fact that Li You is not a C man?"
An Xinran didn't expect that Bian Zhi would suddenly tell her this.
"Ah?" A face flushed red.
Bian Zhi said, "He has a complex in certain aspects. I can't say much because it's his personal privacy. I don't know when he will be able to untie this knot. But if you really like me, I can tell you some tips."
An Xinran's eyes lit up, "What?"
Bian Zhi narrowed his eyes and smiled like a little fox.
When Li You pushed the door open, he saw An Xinran and Bian Zhi whispering to each other in a familiar manner.
He closed the door, asked An Xinran, then looked at Bian Zhi, "You two, are you so familiar with each other?"
An Xinran looked at Bian Zhi without saying anything. The latter nodded at her. An Xinran said "hmm" softly and then left the office.
Li You was confused. He pointed at An Xinran who was walking out and asked Bian Zhi, "She, can't see me?"
Bian Zhi shrugged.
Li You asked curiously, "What are you talking about?" An Xinran came from a wealthy family and always had an unconscious coldness about her. Even Li You rarely saw her take the initiative to get close to anyone.
Bian Zhi dragged his chin and resumed his lazy posture, "I'm asking her to fly a kite."
Li You, "Huh?"
Bian Zhi smiled gently, "I told her that if you want the kite to fly long distances, you can't hold the string too long. You have to be willing to let it go. At the critical moment, you have to give her some sweetness. You have to know how to reel in the string, reeling it in and letting it go, with a good balance of tension and relaxation. If you hold the string firmly in your hand, then even the wildest kite will not be able to break free."
Li You frowned, "What are you talking about?"
Bian Zhi looked at the idiot in front of him and said, "You don't understand." He didn't want to waste time with the idiot. "Why are you looking for me?"
Li You's expression turned serious. "If the old man hears that you have seen blood, he will definitely ask for it back. This is an opportunity, we must seize it."
As long as the old man comes back, it will be time to deal with Butler Li.
Bian Zhi nodded. "I know. When the time comes, I will have the Scorpion's men wait at the airport. As soon as the plane lands, I will immediately have people protect the old man."
By then, the cancer in the Huo family will be eliminated and the Huo family will be moved back to China, and she can rest assured to take care of her pregnancy.
Bian Zhi arranged all the plans and Li You left the office.
He looked around the Huo's house but didn't see An Xinran.
Meanwhile, in the women's restroom on the 18th floor of the Huo Corporation, Lin Su stood in front of the mirror, applying lipstick. She nonchalantly said, "An Xinran, I'm telling you, don't ruin my plans. If you're sensible, just shut up. Do you know why, even after Bian Zhi chose you, I was still able to join the Huo Corporation as an assistant? Because I have connections up there."
"President Bian has given me full authority to handle the matter of hiring a miracle doctor, which means he trusts me. Don't think you can outdo me just because you have a good family background. I'm telling you, it's impossible!"
An Xinran didn't say anything, washed her hands, and prepared to leave.
Lin Su was angered by An Xinran's cold attitude. She walked straight in front of An Xinran and raised her hand to stop her.
An Xinran looked up at her, a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes, "Get out of the way."
“No!”
"Did you hear what I just said? I'm warning you, don't interrupt me when I'm talking to President Bian from now on. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude to you!"
If it were in the hospital before, Lin Su would not dare to say this, but now she is in the Huo family, and Bian Zhi relies on her to find a miracle doctor. Even if she does something to An Xinran, she believes that Bian Zhi will not blame her.
Lin Su smiled sinisterly, and then raised his hand high.
An Xinran lowered her eyes and noticed Lin Su's intention. She was about to take a step back when she saw the man coming up the corridor from the corner of her eye.
My mind paused.
Unable to dodge.
The sound of "Pa!" slap echoed loudly in the corridor.
An Xinran was stunned for a moment. When she came to her senses, a big hand had already grabbed her arm and pulled it behind her.
"Lin Su!"
An Xinran looked up and could only see Li You's broad back. Because she was facing away from him, she could not see Li You's expression at the moment.
However, Li You's voice was so cold, like ice in winter. She heard him say coldly, "Lin Su, I asked you to come here to take care of my junior sister, not to violence her!"
At this moment, An Xinran's face felt a little hot and painful, but she also had a very strange feeling. She lowered her head and looked at Li You who was still holding her hand.
His knuckles were long and slender, and they were white from the force he exerted in anger.
His entire back was stretched tight in the snug-fitting suit, and he looked cold and unfamiliar.
An Xinran saw Lin Su was stunned by the yelling, and then she covered her face and ran away crying.
An Xinran looked at Li You's concerned eyes when he turned around, and suddenly remembered the kite theory that Bian Zhi had told her in the office.
She paused for a moment, and then, when Li You's hand reached the side of her face, she moved her head away first.
Li You's hand stopped in the air.
"I'm fine," An Xinran said in a cold tone, as if she was treating a stranger. "Dean Li, if you're fine, I'll leave first."
His face was swollen like a bun. Seeing An Xinran was about to leave, Li You panicked for a moment and acted without thinking. He grabbed An Xinran's arm with his other hand.
The usually gentle eyes were now filled with tension. "Does it hurt?"
An Xinran said, "It hurts."
Li You knew An Xinran. She was a very strong-willed girl. Normally, even if she was really hurt, she would endure it and not cry out in pain.
This time, she actually faced him and cried out in pain.
That must have been painful.
Li You felt a choking sensation in his heart, "Let me take you to the hospital."
"No need," An Xinran pulled her hand back from Li You's palm, "You don't like me, so there's no need for you to feel sorry for me or sympathize with me."
Li You looked at the red and swollen scars on the fair face, and his mind went cold.
He blurted out without control, "How can I sympathize with you?! I'm just afraid that you'll sympathize with me!"
At this moment, An Xinran felt that she had pried open a small hole in Li You's still closed heart.
She was smart enough not to press on, but instead avoided making eye contact with Li You, and imitated Bian Zhi, saying "Oh" softly.
Li You was stunned.
I thought there would be more to say after he reassured me, but in the end, there was just an "Oh," and that was it.
This time, it was Li You who was anxiously thinking, "Oh?" Then what?
What is the subtext?
Compared to Li You's collapse, there was another person who was even more devastated at this moment.
That’s Gu Yan.
Bian Zhi sat in the office, listening to Gu Yan's collapse and said, "Boss, when will you come to the base? If you don't come, I will be eaten alive."
Bian Zhi: “What do you mean?”
Gu Yan was furious, "You picked up this girl, you are sick!"
