"Huh? Why?"
Aiven stared wide-eyed.
Are you worried that I can't afford the consultation fee?
Although I live a frugal life, I still have some savings!
"Little miracle doctor, I know your treatments are expensive, just name your price!"
"No, no, no, you misunderstand. It's just that yesterday... my two certificates were confiscated. If I treat you now, it would be practicing medicine without a license," Su Ruyi said in a low but clear voice.
Ai Wenxing looked at Ba Yuchi, then suddenly pointed at him and laughed: "Fine, you old bastard! You were waiting for me here, weren't you? Fine, you just wait!"
As he spoke, he got up and walked towards the study next to his own.
A few dozen seconds later, everyone heard his loud voice coming from the study:
"Yes! Check it for me..."
Yes! Huichuntang! Su Ruyi!
Why did you take their certificates?
...Alright, don't tell me why. Just send me the certificate as soon as you receive it.
I think... it takes about an hour to get here from where you are.
If it's not delivered within an hour, you can expect me to skin you alive!
No sooner had the words left his mouth than everyone heard a "click" as the phone was slammed shut.
Aivenxing quickly walked back in with a smile:
"Alright!"
Alright, let's just wait!
In an hour, little miracle doctor, you'll be able to treat me!
Ah, let me see, what should we do in this hour?
...By the way, you haven't tried my chef yet, have you?
"How about I cook you a nice meal?"
Qi Yasheng asked curiously, "Did you eat breakfast or lunch around nine in the morning? We ate breakfast before we came."
Aiven rolled her eyes at him: "You're obviously destined to have bad luck with food!"
Ba Yuchi said, "Sure, we're just killing time anyway, so why don't you prepare a meal for us?"
Aiven winked at the nanny, who then hurriedly left.
About 20 minutes later, the nanny came over carrying a set of exquisite silverware.
Su Ruyi took a look and found that it was actually a Western-style brunch, and it was even served in individual portions!
The elegant plate contains very small portions of cheese, fruit, yogurt, toasted bread topped with a soft-boiled egg, a mini salad, and a few slices of Jinhua ham.
Seeing these dishes, Su Ruyi's thoughts were instantly transported back to her previous life.
In her previous life, after Su Yin took her back, she ate this kind of brunch every year for several years whenever she was at home.
In her previous life, Su Yin was extremely obsessed with the Western lifestyle.
However, it is quite strange for such a brunch to appear in this era.
Seeing Su Ruyi's hesitant expression, Ai Wenxing explained with a grin:
"My cook is the son of one of my former subordinates. He married a White Russian woman."
The child's parents are both deceased, and he was originally going to be deported.
I kept him here; his cooking is pretty good. At first, I didn't like these dishes, but now…
I... still can't get used to the food! Haha!
The main purpose is to scare you when guests come!
Look at your expressions, they're hilarious!
Ba Yuchi started eating too: "You forgot to mention your cook's skills, they're top-notch."
Aiven was a little smug:
"That's right! Otherwise, why would I keep him around?"
They sent him to farm in the outskirts of Beijing a long time ago!
That's a big size!
The wages they ask for each month are so high, almost half of my salary!
Moreover, the raw materials for all the things he makes are ridiculously expensive, and he's taken away half of my salary.
"I'm broke every month just for the little bit of fun I have in scaring you guys!"
Aivenxing made a very humorous remark.
Su Ruyi picked up the knife and spread the cheese on the toast slices.
Ai Wenxing gave her a thumbs up: "Little Divine Doctor, you've certainly seen the world!"
Su Ruyi thought sadly—but all the worldly experience she had gained in her previous life was that of her mortal enemy, Su Yin.
Su Ruyi felt a moment of sadness, but as soon as the toast entered her mouth, the sadness vanished instantly—this thing was so delicious, so delicious that eating it felt like a sin, so delicious that she couldn't help but want to swear!
Qi Yasheng blurted out, "Holy crap! This thing...it just tastes like the bourgeoisie!"
Ba Yuchi shook his head and said to Ai Wenxing, "My apprentice is good in every way, but he's just not up to par! Don't take it to heart, we're all on the same side!"
Everything at this brunch was delicious, everything tasted so authentic, and even the tableware was all shiny silver.
Just as Su Ruyi finished her last bite of strawberry, a bespectacled, somewhat refined-looking man was led in by the nanny.
He clearly recognized Ai Wenxing, and somewhat awkwardly gave him a half-bow: "Old Ai..."
Ai Wenxing's smiling face, which had been fixed on Su Ruyi and the others, vanished instantly, replaced by a dark and menacing expression: "Who are you?"
The man became even more flustered, taking a few steps forward and almost tripping over himself: "I...I...I'm Cao Gang from the Health Bureau, Elder Ai. I even gave you a report at the last meeting."
“Channel steel? You’ll need good materials for that, yours won’t do,” Aivenxing said somewhat coldly.
Cao Gang stammered, "Old Ai! I... what you wanted was... that... that... that..."
He stammered for a long time, his tongue completely tied, and then frantically rummaged through his briefcase for something.
Su Ruyi immediately noticed that it was a stack of certificates, eight in total—these were the two certificates belonging to her, Jin Xingqiu, and the other three: the Physician Qualification Certificate and the Physician Practice Certificate.
Ai Wenxing snatched the stack of documents and handed them to Su Ruyi: "Little Divine Doctor, quickly check if they're all there. If not, have this guy go get them again!"
Su Ruyi flipped through it.
They nodded, confirming that everyone had both of their identification documents.
Cao Gang hesitated before saying, "Old Ai, I'm just following the rules! I received a report from the public, and the details of the case are quite clear."
"What kind of people would report a good doctor who used his own New Year's Day holiday to work overtime and provide free medical consultations to the people?"
Are these people?
That's a fucking pest!
And you, what's your name again?
Cao Gang, right?
Do you have even a little bit of judgment?
Are you suited to stay in your position?
Answer me!
Ivan Star is very strict.
Cao Gang was so frightened that his legs were trembling: "Old Ai... I... I was wrong, I was wrong!"
“What’s the use of apologizing to me? Go apologize to the little miracle doctor you hurt.” Ai Wenxing glared at him fiercely.
Cao Gang turned to Su Ruyi: "Little, little, little miracle doctor, I'm so, so, so sorry..."
He started stuttering completely, and accidentally bit his tongue, leaving his mouth full of blood!
