Yu Zhiming is still very moved by the house by the West Lake. He had heard a lot about the beautiful scenery of the West Lake in March when he was a child.
The most important thing is that Hangzhou is very close to the coast. It would be a great place to go for a vacation with my family during holidays.
However, when Yu Zhiming saw the photo of the house in Gu Qingran's mobile phone, he became hesitant.
It’s not that the house is bad, on the contrary, it’s great.
Yu Zhiming also understood exactly why Gu Qingran was talking about a house instead of a set of houses.
This is a three-story villa with a courtyard in traditional style, built with green bricks and red tiles.
The only drawback is that it looks a bit old.
"Brother-in-law, a small villa like this by the West Lake would cost at least 50 or 60 million, if not 100 million, right?"
Yu Zhiming questioned, "Just to exchange for an ancient painting worth one or two million, and to befriend me?"
"Isn't this too much to pay?"
Gu Qingran chuckled softly and said, "He was once a big shot in the industry, worth over 10 billion, but now he is in retirement."
"Money, to him now, is just a number. This is why money can't buy my willingness."
"Besides, if I make friends with you, my health will be guaranteed. From the boss's perspective, this exchange is quite worthwhile."
Gu Qingran added, "Zhiming, you don't have to worry. If there really is a trap, can my uncle and I just watch you step into it?"
Yu Zhiming looked at Qing Ning beside him and asked, "What do you think?"
Qing Ning smiled and said, "Zhi Ming, with your current status and position, no one would dare to force you to trade, nor would anyone dare to set a trap for you."
"Whether to agree or not is up to you. You don't have to make a decision now."
"I suggest eating first..."
A few minutes later, Yu Zhiming, his family, and Gu Qingran feasted together...
Gu Qingran waited for Yu Zhiming to finish the first half of the meal and then began to rest with his soup. He sighed, "Every time I eat with you, I feel like I'm drinking big bowls of wine and eating big chunks of meat with the heroes of Liangshan. I'll also eat more without realizing it."
Yu Zhiming didn't care whether he was really sighing or just pretending to sigh and teasing, and said: "I am just following the law of energy conservation. The more I consume, the more I need to eat."
"You'd better eat less and control your diet. Once you gain weight in middle age, it's hard to lose it."
Gu Qingran got angry and corrected him, "Yu Zhiming, I'm not middle-aged, I'm an older young person."
"Old young man, do you understand?"
Yu Zhiming said slowly, "In my opinion, anyone over 40 is considered middle-aged with obvious physical decline."
Gu Qingran took a few breaths and suddenly changed the subject, "How's your longevity exercise going? Do you feel the effects are obvious? Is it easy to learn?"
Yu Zhiming replied directly: "This longevity technique is copyrighted and cannot be passed on without Master Ye's permission."
"I suggest you learn Wu Qin Xi or Tai Chi. As long as you persevere, the results will be good."
Gu Qingran rolled his eyes and said, "I have so much work to do every day, how can I have the time to persevere?"
"Can you be more helpful than me?" Yu Zhiming counterattacked.
Gu Qingran chuckled and said, "Zhiming, don't think you're the only one in the world who works hard, going out early and coming back late. There are countless people who work harder than you."
"For example, I also get up at 6 or 7 o'clock every day, and often don't get home until midnight, or even 1 or 2 o'clock."
"Not only that, but he also flies back and forth frequently, and every trip would take three to five days."
"Relatively speaking, your work is quite regular."
Green Lemon backstabbed: "Brother, a lot of what you call work is either done at the wine table or in the private room of the club. My Zhiming is doing real work."
Gu Qingran retorted, "Clinking glasses at the table, discussing cooperation in a private room at the club, do you think it's easy? It requires both physical and mental effort."
"Qing Ning, if you stick with this kind of work for three to five months, it will definitely be enough."
Qing Ning was unconvinced and said, "Brother, you speak as if I am ignorant of the ways of the world."
"Shui Su and I have been running a herbal medicine business for over half a year. We don't need to eat or drink much, but we are still able to make our business flourish."
Gu Qingran snorted heavily, pointed at his nose, and then pointed at Yu Zhiming.
"This is because you are the daughter of the Gu family. You have me, the Gu family, and Zhiming as your backers. No one dares to embarrass you two little girls."
"If you and Shuisu didn't have such a strong background, a lot of monsters would have come and eaten you two alive."
Gu Qingran continued, "When ordinary people start a business, who doesn't need to entertain guests, give gifts, and manage the family affairs? Think about it, medicinal food is also part of the food industry. Doesn't it have to be inspected by the food hygiene department every few days?"
Qing Ning pondered and said, "That's true. We've only had a few required on-site inspections, but not even one surprise inspection."
Gu Qingran added, "This is the great advantage of having a backer and connections when starting a business."
He looked at Yu Zhiming again and said with a smile, "Come to think of it, I've also benefited a lot from Zhiming."
"Over the past six months, whether it's going to government departments to do business, negotiating business with others, or even poaching people, it feels much easier than usual."
"The influence of the famous doctor Zhiming is becoming more and more prominent..."
After dinner, Gu Qingran left without staying long.
Yu Zhiming had been busy for a week and had to rush to Ning'an Hospital tomorrow, so he went upstairs to rest early.
He came out of the bathroom after washing up, sat on the big bed in the master bedroom, and habitually asked Qing Ning to wipe his hair with a dry towel.
"Qing Ning, you don't have to go to Ning'an with me tomorrow. Call Xiao Xue and Zeng Yan, and go shopping, eating, drinking and having fun together."
Yu Zhiming sighed softly and said, "I'm afraid Xiaoxue will feel uncomfortable if she encounters a boy with ulterior motives."
"She's grown up now. There are some things she might not be able to tell me, so she might be more willing to confide in you."
Qing Ning hummed and asked, "Do you want to tell Momo to accompany you to Ning'an tomorrow?"
Yu Zhiming said: "No need, Sun Lin is with me, and Ning'an is also my territory, how can there be any danger?"
After drying his hair, Yu Zhiming stood up and prepared to return to the soundproof bedroom when his cell phone suddenly rang.
It was Zhou Mo calling.
"Doctor Yu, Gong Yue apologized."
Zhou Mo said excitedly on the phone, "He's issued another public apology to you, saying that he was just an ignorant and fearless clown before, unaware of the depths of the sea and the heights of the mountains. He sincerely apologizes for the offense he had previously caused you."
"He also said, Dr. Yu, you are an all-round medical genius."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "After all this trouble, I hope he can calm down and concentrate on improving himself."
"With his ability, he will become a truly famous doctor in three to five years at most."
Zhou Mo said on the other end of the phone, "Qiu Yi, who used to be arrogant and even at odds with you, is now impressed by you."
"Now this Gong Yue, who has an even more prominent background and is known as a medical genius, has also been impressed by you."
"Doctor Yu, your charisma is truly remarkable. I will dominate the medical field in the future and be the only one who can truly reign supreme."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said with a hint of complacency, "In my opinion, Qiu Yi and Gong Yue both achieved fame at a young age, and have been honored along the way. Plus, they've always received care and praise from their friends and family, so they've rarely experienced setbacks. I've been able to teach them this lesson."
"Now, they have all undergone some degree of transformation. I hope they will achieve greater success in the future."
Zhou Mo asked during the call, "Doctor Yu, aren't you worried that if they become famous in the future, they'll steal your attention?"
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "There's nothing to worry about. There are too many patients in our country, but we just don't have enough good and famous doctors."
He then said confidently, "I will do my job well, and no one can take away the glory that belongs to me."
"Wow, wow, Dr. Yu, you really have such a broad vision. You are truly a great doctor."
Zhou Mo flattered Yu Zhiming fiercely during the call and then said, "Doctor Yu, Gong Yue also said in the article that he would not participate in the Young Doctors Competition of Jingcheng Hospital."
"Doctor Yu, Qiu Yi is obedient to you, so you should ask him not to participate."
Zhou Moyu said with a gloating tone, "With two star-level young doctors withdrawing at once, the value of the Jingcheng Hospital Young Doctors Competition has dropped significantly."
Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "That was just Qiu Yi's statement. It's not right to order him around."
"Zhou Mo, is there anything else..."
At this moment, on the third underground floor of Zhizhen Building, Huashan Hospital.
Shen Yiyi put down the phone and sighed softly: "Gong Yue is so arrogant. As far as I can remember, this is the first time he has bowed his head and apologized publicly."
Shen Qi said proudly, "That's because he has never met anyone who truly convinced him before."
He urged again: "It's getting late, and you're not on night shift, so go home quickly."
Shen Yiyi pouted and said, "No. If I go back, my parents will nag me to get married quickly. It's better to stay here."
She pointed to the door of the soundproof office and asked, "Can I go in and rest?"
Shen Qi warned seriously, "Absolutely not. You can go to the soundproof examination room. No one is allowed to use Doctor Yu's office."
Shen Yiyi curled her lips and said, "I heard that Qiu Yi's patient is out of danger and getting better?"
Shen Qi hummed and said, "Thanks to early detection and early treatment, she was able to retain a spark of recovery after her organ failure, which allowed her to finally survive this."
"This is the unanimous judgment of Dr. Yan and Dr. Ning. They said that they have never seen a patient with such a serious condition survive without a transplant."
Shen Yiyi asked again: "For that patient, Qiu Yi not only bowed his head to Dr. Yu, but also paid a large sum of money to keep her alive. What is the relationship between the two of them?"
"I heard that girl is a hostess in the club?"
Shen Qi glanced at her and said, "Why do you care about their relationship? It's just a good way to shut up uncle and aunt."
Shen Yiyi hummed twice and said, "Gong Yue and Qiu Yi, they are both far away from me, and I still feel a little uncomfortable."
Shen Qi was startled when he saw her looking at the door of the soundproof office, and warned: “Shen Yiyi, don’t do anything rash.”
Shen Yiyi retracted her gaze and said, "Look how scared you are. I am the kind of person who does things recklessly. You don't understand my thoughts."
She took out a stack of printed medical information from her bag and said, "This was sent to me by a classmate from abroad. I don't have a clue what it means. Could you help me take a look..."
