Peerless Divine Doctor in the City of Flowers

At midnight, Ning Mengyao tiptoed into the courtyard.

She seldom returned late, but tonight she deliberately stayed out until late.

It was all to avoid her grandfather.

"You actually decided to come back!"

Just as she was about to sneak into East Cross Court,

Ning Zhenyue was already sitting there, waiting for her.

"Grandpa, you're still not sleeping this late?"

Ning Mengyao smiled awkwardly.

Over the years, her grandfather always went to bed punctually at ten o'clock.

"How can I sleep? Tell me, what was the meaning of what happened in the marketing department today?"

Ning Zhenyue said with a stern face.

"Grandpa, what happened with the marketing department?"

Ning Mengyao feigned ignorance.

"Don't give me that act. I let my son-in-law work at the company, even agreed for him to start from the bottom. But what do you do? You set him tasks that are impossible to complete and say he would be considered as quitting if he fails. Are you trying to make a fool of me?"

Ning Zhenyue slammed the table, glaring angrily at his granddaughter.

Having raised her himself, he knew very well what his granddaughter was like.

"Grandpa, I'm being framed. I was busy with other work all day today, I had no idea about the marketing department. How about I inquire tomorrow at work what this impossible task actually is."

Ning Mengyao quickly rushed to her grandfather's side, displaying a coquettish demeanor.

Yet, in her heart, she held contempt for the person who had informed on her.

She didn't need to ask; it had to have been that guy reporting back.

"Meng Yao, your son-in-law is an extremely capable person, you really need to cherish him, our old friend once said, 'having a dragon son-in-law means success everywhere.' If you dare to mistreat him, I will not forgive you."

Ning Zhenyue said with a cold face.

The way Lin Fan performed today could only be described as shocking.

Although he didn't know what had happened in the courtyard, Luo Jiuying really did wake up.

He took him along as soon as they left the door and has not returned since.

Just from the way the two of them cowered in front of him, it was evident.

He really had gained a dragon son-in-law.

"Grandpa, don't worry, how could I mistreat him? Rest assured, I will take good care of him. The night air is cool; it's best if you go back to your room and sleep. When I see him, I will definitely apologize."

After much coaxing, Ning Mengyao finally managed to send her grandfather out.

When she returned to her room and confirmed that the person was not there, she finally felt relieved.

"Tattletale, just so you know, as long as I am here, don't even think about sticking around at the company."

Ning Mengyao grumbled furiously.

Only then did she contentedly lie down on the comfortable bed.

As for tomorrow's matters, she would deal with them tomorrow.

Unbeknownst to Lin Fan, at this very moment, he was sitting in the Martial Alliance gymnasium.

Following a lavish feast, naturally came the two old men's favorite pastime of playing chess.

However, in Lin Fan's view, combined, these two were just twice the usual bad chess players.

"Alright, I'm done playing with you guys; I still have to work tomorrow."

A chess game was swiftly ended by Lin Fan cornering his opponent.

He threw down the white pieces on the board and prepared to go home to sleep.

"Boss, you still need to work? If you need money, I can give you some,"

"If the boss is reluctant to take it for nothing, let's just call it a game transaction fee, how about ten million per game?"

Luo Jiuying and Li Yizhen looked at Lin Fan almost in disbelief.

With his skills, did he really need to earn that pitiful, shameful money?

"I work to contribute to modernization; you rich folks are just too worldly."

Lin Fan disdainfully rolled his eyes at the two men.

He was working there just to woo his wife.

"The boss really knows what he's doing. I admire him. Which company is the boss working at? We'd also like to pay a visit in the future."

Luo Jiuying hurriedly clasped his fists and said.

"I joined the marketing department of the Ning Group today, but you guys shouldn't bother coming. It's still uncertain whether I'll pass the probation period. Now I'm going home to sleep. I have to go to First Hospital early tomorrow to see if I can finalize the contract."

Lin Fan stood up and walked outside.

The two naturally accompanied him all the way and arranged for someone to take him home.

When the two of them returned to the living room, their expressions instantly became somber.

The playful mischievousness of earlier was gone.

Luo Jiuying dismissed the others and called his son over.

"Investigate the cooperation between the Ning Group and First Hospital immediately."

"Yes!"

As a member of the Martial Alliance, he definitely operated in both the realms of black and white.

"The Ning Group has a medical equipment division. They have tried negotiating with First Hospital several times but were unsuccessful because Chen Group is the supplier there, and it has a much bigger base than the Ning Group."

Half an hour later, Luo Shaoyong had the investigation results.

This was not a business secret; a few phone calls later, the information was obtained.

"Notify First Hospital that I want to see the person in charge and all the shareholders in the hospital tomorrow morning," Luo Jiuying ordered after thinking it over.

"Dad, isn't it unnecessary for you to show up personally for this? I can just make a call to Chen Group to cut off supply and transfer the supply rights to the Ning Group."

Luo Shaoyong spoke casually.

It was just a multi-million dollar project.

With the influence of the Martial Alliance, Chen Group would certainly not dare to defy.

"No, I must go myself. And remember, from today on, you must watch Lin Fan closely twenty-four hours a day, meet any of his needs, even if it means employing all the resources of the Martial Alliance. Understood?"

Luo Jiuying's expression was grave.

"Using all of the Martial Alliance's resources just for someone skilled in medicine? Isn't that a bit of an overreaction?"

Luo Shaoyong was startled and asked doubtfully.

"Do you think being skilled in medicine is a trivial matter?"

Li Yizhen's expression became serious,

and his voice deepened.

"Mr. Li... I... I didn't mean that... I just think that employing so much of the Martial Alliance's power... might be inappropriate!"

Luo Shaoyong quickly shook his head, not daring to underestimate Li Yizhen.

After all, over the years, many of Jiangning's elite had been greatly benefitted by him.

If he ordered it, no one could withstand the retaliation of the Divine Doctor.

"You don't understand a damn thing. He's not only a master of medicine but also has achieved a level of cultivation you could never reach in your lifetime. Do you think it's just ordinary medical skill that brought your father back from death and made him a sky-level master overnight?"

Li Yizhen glared at Luo Shaoyong angrily.

Upon hearing this, Luo Shaoyong looked at his father in astonishment.

"That's right, although this man's background is unclear, he is definitely one of the top experts. I have met many people in my life, but I can't see through him. His strength is beyond anything known. If he wanted, I suspect no one in Jiangning could stand against him. If we don't win him over, the day he stands against us might be the day the Martial Alliance falls. So remember, you must treat him even better than you treat me!"

Luo Jiuying clenched his fists.

The breakthrough that hadn't come for decades was easily achieved by him.

This shock was too immense.

While the father and son were talking, Li Yizhen suddenly stood up and walked out.

Luo Jiuying quickly called out to him.

"Hey, Mr. Li, where are you going? Didn't we agree on seven days and nights?"

"I need to call my granddaughter and tell her to hurry back for a matchmaking!"
