"Dr. He seems to have a problem with me."
That's what he said, but Lin Yiping had a smile on his lips, as if the result was quite to his liking.
“Young Master Lin, you may speak frankly. I am a widow with a child, and I am certainly not someone you would entertain.”
He Jiuniang sighed, wanting to make things clear, otherwise this person would follow her endlessly.
"Haha!" Lin Yiping laughed. "Dr. He misunderstands. I just want to thank you for treating my illness. I heard that you not only want to buy a courtyard house, but also want to do business in Jingzhou City. I can help you with that."
He Jiuniang's gaze instantly turned fierce; this person was investigating her.
“Young Master Lin, you’re too kind. Treating the sick and saving lives is a doctor’s duty. Besides, you’ve already paid the consultation fee, so we’re even. Please don’t bother me in the future. My son is tired, so I’ll take my leave.”
After saying that, He Jiuniang pushed away Lin Yiping's hand that was blocking her way and pulled the dog into the room.
Although there wasn't much to investigate about the original owner's life, and even if the other party found her suspicious, they couldn't produce any evidence, He Jiu Niang was still a little angry. After all, no one likes having their identity investigated.
Because of this, He Jiuniang's impression of Lin Yiping worsened.
Why did I have to be so rude that night and ask him to report me to the authorities? And then why did I have to be so rude and ask the waiter to bring me a late-night snack?
Upon entering the room, He Jiuniang was still somewhat agitated. She sat down at the table and took a sip of tea.
The dog is quite sensible. He took off his little shoes and climbed into bed to sleep. He has a habit of taking a nap, and it's as if he's lost his soul if he doesn't.
He Jiuniang originally wanted to go to sleep as well, but thinking of Lin Yiping's ill intentions, she decided to go find him again and make things clear once and for all.
The dog quickly fell asleep, and He Jiuniang quietly went out the door. She saw that Lin Yiping's guards were already waiting for her outside, as if they had guessed that she would come out.
The guard knocked on Lin Yiping's door, and after hearing a response, opened the door and gestured for He Jiuniang to enter.
When He Jiuniang went in, she saw Lin Yiping sitting at the table drinking. He had no side dishes, he was just drinking.
Seeing He Jiuniang enter, Lin Yiping shook the wine pot and asked, "Doctor He, would you like a drink?"
He Jiuniang ignored him and asked directly, "Tell me, what exactly is your purpose?"
"My goal is very simple: I just want to take a liking to Doctor He. As long as Doctor He agrees, I can give you the deeds to the best houses and shops in Jingzhou City right now."
As he spoke, the guards beside him respectfully took out several land deeds and placed them on the table.
He Jiuniang looked at the land deed on the table and sneered. Did she care about this?
If this man had just eaten a few peanuts, he wouldn't be this drunk!
What if I don't want to?
She stared intently at Lin Yiping, not missing a single reaction from him.
"Hehe, I know Dr. He is a capable person."
Lin Yiping appeared to be smiling nonchalantly, but he was actually paying attention to He Jiuniang's reaction.
“However, as far as I know, Dr. He’s family are all ordinary people, especially your son who is not yet three years old. It seems that he is your only precious child. What do you think, if…”
Before he could finish speaking, He Jiuniang darted forward, pressed one hand against his head, and with the other hand, she used two fingers to clamp down on the carotid artery in his neck. The whole action was done in one smooth motion, and neither Lin Yiping nor the guards around him could react in time.
Lin Yiping was shocked; she was indeed no ordinary person.
He prided himself on his abilities, but he was utterly powerless against He Jiuniang, which meant that this woman was far superior to him.
"Young Master Lin, you should know that I never like being threatened by anyone. If you dare to harm my family in the slightest, I can make you wish you were dead. If you don't believe me, you are welcome to try."
She was prepared to show him her skills and make him back down, since she could have easily taken his life if she wanted to.
Lin Yiping recovered from his shock and noticed a cold sweat breaking out on his back, but he still tried to remain calm and asked, "Are you really not afraid of something happening to your family?"
"Of course I'm afraid, but if you dare to touch them, I'll strike you ten times. I want to see just how tough your life is, Young Master Lin."
He Jiuniang acted as if she had nothing to lose, and the guards around her tried to stop her, but were slapped away by He Jiuniang.
Lin Yiping's pupils dilated. This woman clearly had no internal strength, so why did she have such explosive power?
"You've seen it yourself, I have that ability."
He Jiuniang threatened in a low voice: "Besides, do you think I can only cure diseases and save lives? I forgot to tell you, I'm also a master at making poisons. I can cure your illness, or I can make you suffer from a serious disease. Do you want to give it a try?"
As she spoke, she released her grip on Lin Yiping's hand, even patting it with a hint of disgust. He had just been sweating from fright, and his sweat had gotten all over her hand.
Ha, he may seem like a big shot on the surface, but he's actually just a coward who's afraid of death.
In that instant, Lin Yiping felt as if he had come back to life. Although his gaze toward He Jiuniang was wary, it was filled with excitement.
She just said that she not only has superb medical skills, but also knows how to make poisons! Add to that her martial arts skills!
He was excited. If he could bring such a person under his command, how far would his great cause be from being realized?
"Dr. He is indeed a capable man. Tell me, how would you be willing to cooperate with me? If you agree, I can give you inexhaustible gold and silver treasures, and even secure official positions for your family, so that you can completely escape the status of a poor peasant family and no longer need to work hard from dawn till dusk to run a small business."
"Then I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you, Young Master Lin. I'm not short of money, and my family doesn't have any lofty ambitions to become officials. We just want to live the life of ordinary people. Besides, Young Master Lin wears one mask after another, and I'm afraid he doesn't dare to show his true identity. How can cooperating with such a person end well? I'm not an ignorant young girl, and Young Master Lin is also a smart man. It's best if we don't interfere with each other. Otherwise, no matter how many masks you wear, I have plenty of ways to recognize you."
Hearing this, Lin Yiping was horrified. His human skin mask was applied so well, how did she see through it?
"Ha ha ha ha!"
He burst into laughter and exclaimed, "Dr. He truly deserves to be called a heroine among women!"
He Jiuniang resisted the urge to slap him on the head and said, "Now that things have come to this, Young Master Lin, you should think it over yourself."
After saying that, she turned and left, her figure as light as when she arrived.
Only then did the guard dare to step forward, clutching his chest, and whisper, "Master, this is a tough nut to crack. Perhaps we should just let it go!"
