Liang Ruoxu knew that Lin Yis mouth was always spewing nonsense, so she didnt care about such trivial things.

She got into her car after leaving the hospital when her phone rang in her bag.

It was her grandfather calling.

Are you done with your meeting?

Ive said what I needed to say. I wont be attending the rest of the meeting, Liang Ruoxus grandfather said.

Hows Old Yang doing? What did the doctor say?

The doctor said hell live for another few decades. Liang Ruoxu recalled what Lin Yi said when he walked out of the operating room, The doctor also said that Old Mr. Yang would be fine even if he died. He could even burn incense for him.

Look at what hes saying. These people are all around my age. Its hard to say how long Old Yang will live after the surgery.

Grandpa, youre being too narrow-minded if you say that.

Whats wrong? How am I being narrow-minded? Dont judge me by my age. You really cant compare to me.

Youre already so old, yet youre still comparing yourself to your granddaughter. How can you be so shameless?

I have to remind you that Im not muddle-headed.

Yes, yes, yes. Old Mr. Liang is the pillar of the country. Hes an unparalleled scholar. No one can compare to you, Liang Ruoxu said with a smile.

But this time, the one who performed the surgery on Mr. Yang is a young doctor and a friend of mine.

A young doctor? Your friend? Liang Ruoxus grandfather said, This is too ridiculous. Your friends are all in Yanjing, and not many of them are studying medicine.

Couldnt they be one of my new friends in Zhonghai?

How long have you been in Zhonghai? The only person Ive heard you mention is that kid who is making a photolithography machine. What happened? Did he go to operate on Old Yang?

Yes.

Yes?

Although it was just a difference in punctuation, the meaning expressed was vastly different.

Say that again. Who operated on Old Yang?

It was my friend who is building the photolithography machine. He operated on Old Yang.

What nonsense are you spouting? A photolithography machine developer was the chief surgeon for Old Yang?

Its true. At that time, the doctors in Huashan Hospital were helpless. Then, he tried his best and succeeded.

Over the next twenty minutes, Liang Ruoxu recounted the entire incident to her grandfather.

Liang Ruoxus grandfather was stunned when he heard it. It was like a fantasy story.

I know you cant accept this. In truth, I havent accepted it myself yet either.

Who is this kid? Where was he raised?

Maybe hes a so-called genius, Liang Ruoxu said.

Is this kid good-looking?

Hes pretty good-looking.

Aiyo, he must be handsome if he can get my precious granddaughter to say these simple words, Liang Ruoxus grandfather said excitedly.

He is also proficient in medical skills and microchips. Your grandmother likes such smart and good-looking men.

I have already told you many times that I have no plans to get married for the time being. If you continue to talk about this matter, I will hang up.

You little girl, you are already so old. Why dont you consider such serious matters at all? Is work so important to you? Believe it or not, I will transfer you back! Liang Ruoxus grandfather said.

If it werent for me, you wouldnt be able to become a full-time official in your entire life.

Then youre wrong. Even if you dont interfere, Im confident that I will become a full-time official within two years.

Two years? Liang Ruoxus grandfather said, What, did you find a good opportunity to build your reputation?

He added my name to the photolithography project, Liang Ruoxu said.

As long as we make some achievements, its only natural that I get promoted.

Liang Ruoxu wanted to show off, but there was a long silence on the other end of the phone.

Grandpa, say something.

You little girl, Liang Ruoxus grandpa said.

Zhonghai is a place with many people and deep waters. I should have sent you to the northwest to train. Its only been a short while, and youve already been set up.

Huh? Set up what?

A trap that binds you together.

I know that. We are in a mutually beneficial relations.h.i.+p.

But you have to remember that you are not alone, you still have the entire Liang family behind you, Liang Ruoxus grandfather said:

He is someone who dares to use a photolithography machine. He doesnt care about your little ident.i.ty at all. The one he wants to bind is not you, but the Liang family behind you.

This

Liang Ruoxu was silent. But I didnt reveal our family background.

Is there a need to reveal this? Under such a system, you being able to work in a city like Zhonghai is already enough to show everything, Liang Ruoxus grandfather said.

This persons insight is extraordinary, and he is also very crafty. If he made the wrong gamble, he wouldnt lose at all. However, if it was the right gamble, then think about how convenient things would be for him. Without a doubt, he made the right gamble.

But I dont think theres anything to worry about, Liang Ruoxu said.

If he really creates the photolithography machine, the Liang family would also benefit from it. Even if we fail to develop it, we wont lose it. Why all the worry?

Little girl, you are too naive.

What did I do wrong? Liang Ruoxu said unwillingly.

If things develop as you say, this is indeed a win-win situation. But think about it, in all of Huaxia, how many people can successfully build a business empire? Who doesnt have dirt on their names? Even so, why is it always peaceful? Isnt it because there are people protecting them?

If one day he is targetted, because of your actions today, even if the Liang family tries to hide ourselves, we will be implicated, understand?

Liang Ruoxu was in the wrong. This guy is indeed a bit of a thief.

Isnt that good? Liang Ruoxus grandfather smiled and said, He has great wisdom, much better than that kid Zhao Mo

Dont talk about him, Liang Ruoxu said. I still have something to do, so I wont talk to you for now.

Liang Ruoxu hung up in a hurry, feeling a deep sense of defeat.

Why didnt she think of this?

This guy really knew how to trick people.

Liang Ruoxu let out a breath, calmed herself down, and drove away.

Lin Yi eventually got up, changed his clothes, and drove home.

There was no need for him to stay in the hospital with a boss like Li Chuhan looking after him.

There was no need for him to stay at the hospital with his clinical skills.

He walked to the car and found that the vehicles with military license plates had already left.

Only the red-labeled Civic Type-R was left parked there quietly.

Just as Lin Yi was about to leave, he was surprised to see Li Chuhan walking toward him.

She had taken off her white coat. Li Chuhans outfit had a gentle touch to it.

The light yellow silk tulle crop top, paired with the light gray wide-legged pants, gave her the demeanor of a working woman.

What happened next surprised Lin Yi.

He saw Li Chuhan take out her car keys from her bag and start the Civic Type-R beside him!

Is this car yours? Lin Yi asked.

Yeah, Li Chuhan said with a smile. I dont have many hobbies, so I race a few laps every now and then.

Lin Yis mouth twitched. As expected, a maverick like Li Chuhan liked different things from others.

Are you going home? Are you leaving the patient alone? Lin Yi asked.

Director Miao saw that I was too tired, so he told me to go back and rest. Hell be taking watch tonight.

Lin Yi smiled, he thought to himself, This old guy is quite sneaky. For a patient, other than the surgery itself, the most important period is the first day of the surgery. If he sends Li Chuhan away, hell be able to take some credit.

However, a person like Li Chuhan, who was indifferent, wouldnt care about these things.

Have you eaten dinner tonight? Do you want to come along? Ill treat you. Li Chuhan asked.

Sure. I didnt manage to fill myself just now.

Lets have dinner together then.

Director Li!

After dinner, just as the two of them were about to leave, they suddenly heard someone talking and realized that it was Duan Peng who ran over.

Beside him was another male colleague. Judging from his attire, he should be from a decent family.

The mans name was Sun Tianheng. He was the son of the hospital secretary.

I finally caught up with you, Duan Peng said breathlessly as he trotted over.

Director Duan, is there something you need from me?

I recently joined a supercar club and there is an event tonight. It just so happens that youre interested in such things too, so I thought Id invite you out.
