Chapter 967: Being beaten by my mother is not shameful



Although Yu Zhiming was timid before the battle, he became more and more courageous in the actual battle and performed quite bravely.

The result was that at nearly eight o'clock in the morning, Yu Zhiming, who had won the war, came downstairs to have breakfast in a proud and confident manner.

The defeated Qing Ning was so exhausted that he fell asleep and slept soundly once again.

Yu Zhiming originally planned to wake the little guy up at 9:30 in the morning.

What I didn’t expect was that my father-in-law, mother-in-law, Gu Qingran, and Zhu Ying arrived just after 9:20 in the morning.

"Where's the lime?"

Lu Hong saw the entire Yu family coming to greet her, but her precious daughter was missing, so she couldn't help but ask.

"I'm changing clothes upstairs. I thought you'd arrive a little later." Yu Zhiming quickly made up an explanation and continued, "I'll go call her out right away."

Lu Hong grabbed Yu Zhiming's hand, chuckled, and said, "I'd better go by myself. I just want to have a few private conversations with Qing Ning."

After hearing what his mother-in-law said, Yu Zhiming could only watch her go upstairs alone, secretly hoping that Qingning had already gotten up and was washing up, otherwise she would definitely be the first to eat.

However, even if they were mother and daughter, there would be no overnight grudge after a fight...

Next, Yu Zhiming, his parents, eldest sister, Xiaoxue, Zeng Yan, and his fourth sister and brother-in-law Zhang Bai, Xiaobo and Jiang Feng, who had arrived early in the morning, accompanied Gu Changxuan, Gu Qingran and Zhu Ying, and sat in the living room to talk.

After a round of pleasantries, Gu Changxuan chuckled and said, "Zhiming, I heard a piece of confirmed news. The Chu family of Jingcheng Hospital raised the price of wild ginseng to three million yesterday, and they bought more than fifty wild ginseng plants in half a day."

"More than fifty trees? That's so many?!"

Yu Zhiming was very surprised and said puzzledly: "It's incredible that there are so many wild ginsengs over 50 years old on the market."

He then chuckled and said, "But this is a good thing. With such a large inventory, we should be able to buy some when we need it."

Gu Qingran smiled and said, "Zhiming, it's not what you think. I'm sure it was only yesterday's market trend."

"Those who have fifty-year-old wild ginseng think the three million price is just a flash in the pan, so they're rushing to sell it."

"I can be sure that starting from today, the Chu family will receive one within ten days or half a month, which is quite good."

Gu Qingran continued, "Tomorrow, after discussion last night, Elder Qin, Elder Ye, Elder Bai, and Elder Liu decided to gather again at the Bai Family Clinic in the capital next Thursday to tackle this problem."

Yu Zhiming uttered a soft "oh" and said, "Don't worry about it. Our ginseng life-extending pills can still last for more than a year. This is plenty of time for research and development."

“Slow work makes perfect!”

Gu Qingran laughed and said, "They are all experienced elders, why would they lose their temper and get anxious?"

"They're afraid you'll be anxious."

Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "Why would I be anxious?"

"Even if the research on alternative medicines continues to be unsuccessful and the ginseng life-extending pills run out, the worst that can happen is that I can just stop this treatment program for patients with advanced cancer."

"How much of an impact can it have on me?"

"I guess the Chu family was the one who was anxious at that time, right?"

Gu Changxuan nodded and smiled, "Not bad, not bad! Zhiming, when you are the only buyer in the market, this is actually a big advantage. You can even determine the price."

"The Chu family spent a huge amount of money to monopolize wild ginseng, and their goal is you. When you don't accept it, they will be the ones who suffer."

"Now it depends on who can hold on to the end."

Gu Changxuan analyzed: "The Chu family does not want to be burned by the anger of thousands of cancer patients, so they will definitely bow their heads."

Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "I hope so."

Gu Changxuan then said, "Zhiming, let me tell you one more thing. Regarding your project, as long as you are involved or it has a close relationship with you, Ning'an Investment will invest in it without a second thought."

"If you have a good idea in the future, you don't have to worry about funding. Ning'an Investment will take the lead in getting it done."

Yu Zhiming said sincerely: "Thank you, father-in-law, for your trust and support."

Gu Changxuan laughed and said, "You earned this with your absolute strength. No need to thank me."

"One more thing, Zhiming, the location for your and Qingning's wedding has been confirmed. It's at Pujiang No. 1."

Gu Changxuan explained, "It's one of the top clubs in Binhai. When I contacted them, they told me they had already scheduled an event at that time."

"However, just a few days ago, the person in charge of Pujiang No. 1 contacted me and said that they learned that I had booked the clubhouse for your and Qing Ning's wedding, so they specially coordinated with the event organizer that day to vacate the clubhouse for that day."

Gu Changxuan said with emotion: "Zhiming, from this incident, we can see that your face is more useful than our Gu family's."

Yu Zhiming was just about to say something modest when he saw Gu Changxuan stand up, his eyes cast towards Yu's father, and he couldn't wait to say, "Now that we've finished our business, Brother Yu, how about we play a few games?"

Father Yu also chuckled and stood up, saying, "Okay, let's go to the small living room upstairs..."

After Yu's father and Gu Changxuan went to the small living room upstairs to watch the battle between Chu and Han, Yu Zhiming looked at Gu Qingran.

"This Pujiang No. 1?"

Gu Qingran smiled and said, "Let Qingning give you a detailed introduction later. She will definitely be very satisfied with the place."

The next moment, he moved closer to Yu Zhiming and asked in a low voice, "Did you have a fight? Why haven't you come down for so long?"

"You won't do it, will you?"

Yu Zhiming asked back, "If we really have to fight, given Qing Ning's strength, the one who gets injured and can't get up should be me, right?"

Gu Qingran snorted twice and said with a bad look in his eyes, "It's hard to say. Qing Ning might not be willing to attack you."

"But you look like someone with dirty hands."

Yu Zhiming rolled his eyes, ignored this guy, and decided to get up and go upstairs to take a look.

If Qing Ning was really beaten non-stop by his mother-in-law, he could also try to persuade her.

Passing by the small living room on the second floor, Yu Zhiming saw the chess game between his father and father-in-law. The game had passed the opening stage and entered the fierce middle game.

He didn't stop and came to the door of the master bedroom.

He knocked on the door twice, and when he heard the voice of "Come in", he pushed the door open and saw his mother-in-law Lu Hong standing in front of the dressing table. The sound of a bath came from the bathroom.

"Mom, please go downstairs and have some tea. Qing Ning will come down after she washes up and changes her clothes."

Lu Hong hummed lightly, then said with a smile: "Seeing you two being so affectionate, I feel relieved."

"Qing Ning was a bit spoiled and willful when she was little. I once doubted whether she could be a qualified wife."

"Now, I feel relieved. Loving someone can indeed change them."

Lu Hong walked to the door, turned to look at Yu Zhiming, and said with a smile: "Well, Qing Ning also told me that you need a long time to recuperate."

"In this situation, your health should be prioritized and moderation is key."

Yu Zhiming said sheepishly, "Mom, my self-control and self-discipline are pretty good."

After sending his mother-in-law out of the room, Yu Zhiming returned and opened the bathroom door directly. He saw that Qingning had finished washing and was wiping her body with a bath towel.

He noticed that there was a red spot on Qing Ning's left arm.

"Are you twisted?"

Qing Ning glared at Yu Zhiming first, then pouted pitifully and said, "It's all your fault. I'm already this old, and I'm still being beaten by my mother. How embarrassing."

Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "No matter how old you are, it's not shameful to be beaten by your mother."

He explained embarrassedly, "Well, I originally wanted to wake you up at 9:30, but I didn't expect my parents-in-law to arrive early."

Qing Ning snorted twice and said to save her dignity, "Zhi Ming, don't be so complacent and think you are so great."

"If I hadn't spent a long time chatting with a close friend from abroad last night and hadn't gotten enough sleep, I wouldn't have acted so poorly and sluggishly this morning."

Yu Zhiming quickly agreed, "Yes, yes, it's not that I'm strong, it's that you're weak, so my victory is unfair."

"I'm glad you know."

Qing Ning raised her chin proudly, took the underwear handed to her by Yu Zhiming and put it on.

"Zhiming, my best friend contacted me suddenly last night, and her ultimate goal is still you."

Yu Zhiming said, "Difficult and complicated diseases? Infertility? Or cancer?"

“Neither!”

Qing Ning introduced herself, "She's not looking for medical advice, she's asking for a favor. She said she bought a large house in a picturesque part of the United States for a very cheap price."

"She thought she had found a great bargain, but she didn't expect the house to have a big problem. In the dead of night, there was a buzzing sound coming from somewhere in the room."

"The noise makes it hard to sleep."

"She consulted several relevant professionals, but they were unable to find the source of the sound."

Yu Zhiming couldn't help but ask, "Every night?"

Qing Ning shook her head and said, "Not every night, maybe once or twice a week, there's no specific pattern."

"Later, she heard from others that the sound was the accusation of a wronged soul. Someone had disappeared in the house before, and to this day, no one has found the person, alive or dead."

"She thought you were sensitive to sounds and wanted to invite you to the United States to find out what the problem was."

After a pause, Qing Ning continued, "I told my bestie that your condition isn't suitable for long-distance travel, so you can't go to the United States."

Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "Your best friend is quite wealthy, right? If you really can't find the source of the noise, why not just accept your bad luck and sell the house at a low price?"

"Or, just tear down the house and rebuild it."

Qing Ning couldn't help but laugh and said, "Your two suggestions are quite good. They can completely solve the problem."

As she spoke, she put on her clothes, sat down in front of the dressing table, and began to put on makeup.

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

Yu Zhiming shouted "Come in", and Zeng Yan pushed the door open and walked in.

"Uncle, it's Dr. Bao Wan who's here."

"She brought some gifts, saying they were local specialties from a kidney transplant patient in her hometown."

When Yu Zhiming heard this, he immediately understood.

The patient from her hometown, whom Bao Wan had previously sponsored, had completed all the necessary paperwork and physical preparations and finally arrived at Huashan Hospital for a living-donor kidney transplant.
