Lin Xiao Tian paid no mind to Dong Lin's roars behind him; he had no intention of dealing with him.
While others came to the Guoyi Medical Hall for fame or fortune, Lin Xiao Tian was there purely due to a misunderstanding.
Lin Xiao Tian was not short on money. If the Guoyi Medical Hall offered him anything, it was the opportunity to fulfill his duty as a doctor.
Beyond that, there were no other benefits.
After all, Lin Xiao Tian was already a multimillionaire and had no need to linger at the clinic.
After getting into the car, Lin Xiao Tian casually opened his phone.
He hadn't connected to the internet before, so he hadn't received any WeChat messages. But as soon as he turned on his data, several messages quickly came in.
One of them was from Song Ying Deng.
Lin Xiao Tian glanced at the message from Song Ying Deng, which was filled with business pleasantries.
"Mr. Song, I have a skincare product for beauty and rejuvenation. Are you interested?" Lin Xiao Tian sent a message.
*Ding ding!*
Soon, a reply came back.
"Of course, I'm interested. Mr. Lin, when are you available? We can arrange a time to look at the samples."
"In a few days. I'll mail the samples to you then," Lin Xiao Tian replied.
"Alright! I'll await Mr. Lin's news."
After coordinating with Song Ying Deng, Lin Xiao Tian closed his phone.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Song Ying Deng was extremely excited after receiving Lin Xiao Tian's message.
"What is it? What news warrants you not eating and replying immediately? Also, you've been glancing at your phone all afternoon. Are you seeing someone behind my back?"
A beautiful woman standing before Song Ying Deng spoke with some displeasure.
The woman, Chen Xiao Zhen, was a top domestic actress and Song Ying Deng's wife.
"Sigh! You're always so suspicious. Do you really think I'd find someone else while I'm already struggling to handle you? Are you trying to exhaust me to death?"
Hearing Song Ying Deng's reply, Chen Xiao Zhen felt a touch of pride.
"Then who are you chatting with? Your expression was so excited just now."
"A future business partner."
"A man or a woman?"
"A man!"
"A man, and you're this excited?"
"Sigh! Xiao Zhen, he's no ordinary person! I have a feeling that if we can collaborate with him, the company's profits could multiply several times over. I believe he's my benefactor." Song Ying Deng said earnestly.
Looking at Song Ying Deng's serious expression, Chen Xiao Zhen raised an eyebrow.
"Is it that incredible? Who is this person?"
"Someone very capable."
"How capable?"
Song Ying Deng's lips curved upwards as he began to explain:
"Do you know that the Gu Yuan Dan from Fang Shi Group was concocted by him alone? Moreover, no one in the market can replicate that Gu Yuan Dan."
"He's now a doctor at the Guoyi Medical Hall. I specifically inquired; he can cure any illness. He's only been here a day or two and has already become the most formidable doctor at the Guoyi Medical Hall."
"But you're in the cosmetics business. Are you going to sell medicine?" Chen Xiao Zhen frowned slightly.
"No! It's that he's venturing into cosmetics!"
"Can the cosmetics made by a doctor be better than yours?"
"I think so," Song Ying Deng said confidently.
Chen Xiao Zhen blinked, unable to understand why Song Ying Deng was so confident in Lin Xiao Tian.
...
At the same time, Lin Xiao Tian arrived at Bai Xue's residence.
After an afternoon of preparation, Bai Xue had moved into the villa, but she had no idea how to decorate it, so the rooms remained largely as they were.
Seeing Lin Xiao Tian arrive, Bai Xue felt a bit ashamed, as she hadn't completed the task Lin Xiao Tian had assigned her.
"It's alright!" Seeing Bai Xue's guilt-ridden face, Lin Xiao Tian couldn't help but pat her head.
"As long as you like it here, leaving everything as is is fine."
"Xiao Tian, will you look down on me?" Bai Xue suddenly asked.
"Why would you say that? Why would I look down on you?"
"I'm from the countryside, and I don't understand anything..."
"I'm from the countryside too," Lin Xiao Tian said, pulling her into a hug. "Did that Hu Li Li get to you? You don't need to pay attention to people like her."
"Mm..." Bai Xue gazed intently at Lin Xiao Tian.
That night passed in sweet slumber.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Dong Lin sought out Xu Qing He.
"Haha, Young Master Dong, what a rare visit!" Xu Qing He said with a face full of smiles.
"How is Teacher Dong's health these days?"
"Alas! Since taking over this medical hall, I haven't had time to visit Teacher. I'm truly ashamed!"
Xu Qing He sighed.
The "Teacher Dong" he referred to was Dong Lin's great-grandfather, who was over one hundred and twenty years old.
"My great-grandfather is in excellent health. You needn't worry about him." Dong Lin, still smarting from his encounter with Lin Xiao Tian, was in a bad mood and spoke to Xu Qing He with a much harsher tone.
"Heh heh, that's good, that's good..." Xu Qing He chuckled awkwardly.
"I've come today because I have something to instruct you to do."
"Young Master Dong, what instructions do you have?"
"Do you have a doctor here named Lin Xiao Tian?"
Upon hearing Lin Xiao Tian's name, Xu Qing He's expression changed slightly. Seeing Dong Lin's sullen face, even though he didn't know what had happened, he knew that Lin Xiao Tian must have offended this young master.
"Oh, oh... Xiao Tian! He's a miracle doctor here!"
"Heh heh? Miracle doctor? I think you're crazy! You hired someone like that?" Dong Lin's expression worsened upon hearing Xu Qing He praise Lin Xiao Tian. "Tomorrow... starting tomorrow, I don't want to see Lin Xiao Tian working at the Guoyi Medical Hall!"
"This... Young Master Dong, Lin Xiao Tian truly has skill. If we let him go, it would be a significant loss for us!" Xu Qing He explained.
"Loss of what? We have plenty of skilled doctors; we don't need him!"
"Just fire him. If he dares to cause trouble, I'll take responsibility."
"Also... you need to issue a notice that harshly denigrates Lin Xiao Tian. I want to ban him from the entire medical community!"
Dong Lin gritted his teeth.
"This... it's not quite in line with the rules, is it?" Xu Qing He explained.
"What do you mean? Are you planning to side with Lin Xiao Tian?" Dong Lin glared at Xu Qing He.
Xu Qing He smiled slightly and produced a contract.
"Young Master Dong, this is the contract we signed with Lin Xiao Tian. Take a look at the breach of contract clause. If we terminate Lin Xiao Tian's employment unilaterally, we'll have to pay substantial liquidated damages."
"Liquidated damages? How much could that be?" Dong Lin dismissively took the contract.
When he saw the figure on the contract, he was stunned.
"One million?"
"Are you crazy?"
"Why did you sign a contract like this?"
"Did the superiors approve it?"
Dong Lin's face turned red.
This was a one-million-yuan liquidated damages payment, and he couldn't afford such responsibility!
"They approved it."
"Who approved it? Are they insane?"
"This is personally signed by Director Dong himself. Take a look..." Xu Qing He said with a sly smile.
Seeing his father's signature, Dong Lin froze.
"Why?"
"How capable is this Lin Xiao Tian that you're so determined to keep him?"
"I have to see how he practices medicine tomorrow!"
"That might not be possible," Xu Qing He said.
"What do you mean? Is he that high and mighty now? I can't even watch him?"
"Not exactly. It's just that he only works one day a week, so you won't be able to see him tomorrow."
"He only works one day a week?" Dong Lin felt like he was about to explode.
As the son of the chairman, he was completely helpless against Lin Xiao Tian.
