"CEO, I'm just cooperating with you a bit. The instructor is still here, let's save so face." Lin Hai lowered his voice, blinking.
Ouyang Xiaoya's expression eased slightly. After all, with the instructor present, it was worth giving that dead beast extra face, not to ntion that she still needed to maintain a lady's propriety.
"Hmph, I'll deal with you later."
"Mhm, when it's just the two of us in private, you can do whatever you want to ." Lin Hai blinked again.
Just at this mont, footsteps suddenly ca from outside the door.
"Excuse , does Mr. Lin live here?"
An exceedingly polite voice sounded.
The won couldn't help but look over and saw a young man dressed in a sharp suit.
The young man also got stunned entering the villa, thinking, damn, so many beautiful won, just how aweso is the owner of this house.
His gaze involuntarily landed on Lin Hai in the middle of the sofa, holding Ke'er.
"I am Lin Hai. May I ask what you need from ?" Lin Hai asked, puzzled.
The young man admired even more in his heart, thinking truly befitting of an eminent person, surrounded by so much joyful beauty, harmonious without compare, how does he do it.
"Nice to et you, Mr. Lin. I'm here on behalf of Du Shancheng. Mr. Du sent to find you," the young man said with a bow.
"Oh? Secretary Du is looking for ?" Lin Hai nodded.
"That's right, Secretary Du would like to have dinner with you alone tonight. I wonder if you are available?"
"It's already eleven-thirty..."
The young man appeared sowhat embarrassed, "Secretary Du really wishes to et Mr. Lin."
Lin Hai thought for a mont and nodded. It was clear the young man was being very circumspect; Du Shancheng must have sothing up his sleeve, and the dinner was just a pretense.
It was a good opportunity to escape the CEO's wrath.
"Secretary Du serves the country and the people. Since he wants to see , I can't shirk the duty."
Putting on his clothes, Lin Hai said to Ouyang Xiaoya with a smile, "CEO, I'll be leaving first. Let's talk about our matters so other ti."
"Damn your freaking damn! You dead beast."
Ouyang Xiaoya huffed, clenching her pink fist and pounding it on the sofa.
Lin Hai was very curious, for Du Shancheng to be looking for him so late surely ant sothing.
And what use could he be to Du Shancheng?
Faced with the enthusiastic invitation, Lin Hai found it difficult to decline.
Sitting in the car, the young man spoke while driving, "Mr. Lin, Secretary Du hopes that this matter can be kept as confidential as possible."
"Don't worry, as long as it's nothing outrageous, I will help to the best of my ability," Lin Hai agreed, even though he wasn't sure what it was about.
The young man nodded to himself, impressed, "Secretary Du was right, Mr. Lin is indeed a man of virtue."
"Mr. Lin rest assured, Secretary Du is upright and will definitely not do anything outrageous or illegal."
Lin Hai smiled faintly, indeed, Du Shancheng had a very good reputation; there was no need for too much worry.
The car drove for over an hour, winding up and around, finally arriving on the outskirts of Huadu City.
This place was an independent sanatorium built on a mountain.
The sanatorium was established by the governnt, but not open to the public; instead, it was for those high-ranking officials from Yanjing to retire or recuperate.
"Here we are, Mr. Lin, please get out of the car."
Lin Hai got out of the car, very curious, why did Du Shancheng choose to et here? Could it be that he worked himself to the point of exhaustion for the people and ended up in a nursing ho?
"Secretary Du is alright, isn't he?" Lin Hai asked the young man.
The young man replied with a smile, "Secretary Du is in good health. It's just that this ti, an old Chief from Zhongnanhe is coming to Huadu for convalescence, so we asked Mr. Lin to co over."
"What do you need for?"
"Of course, it's to treat an illness. I won't hide it from Mr. Lin, this old Chief from Zhongnanhe has been suffering from a hidden illness left over from the years of war resistance. He's been tornted by the disease for years, and as he gets older, his body is almost unable to bear it anymore."
"Damn, can't the Imperial Physicians from Zhongnanhe cure it?" Lin Hai asked doubtfully.
The young man gave a bitter smile, "They can only treat the symptoms, but they can't eradicate the root cause."
"Secretary Du said that even the Ye Family from Yanjing, a family of dical experts, couldn't completely eradicate it."
"This old Chief is Secretary Du's first ntor, so he hopes you can help out."
Lin Hai was speechless. The Ye Family from Yanjing, also known as a lineage of dical expertise, not only had involvent in politics but their family mbers also possessed high dical skills, growing into a major clan relying on dical governance.
He also knew that his own Heavenly Creation Hand seed to originate from the Ye Family.
If even they were helpless, could his little bit of skill make a difference?
But since he had co, he should at least et them.
Approaching the nursing ho, the trees along the way were lush and tranquil, giving a very peaceful and serene feel.
No wonder it was a place for Chiefs to convalesce. Tsk tsk.
Inside a detached two-story building, Lin Hai finally t Du Shancheng.
"Young Brother Lin has arrived, ha ha," Du Shancheng greeted warmly, shaking hands.
Lin Hai also smiled and said, "Secretary Du, you're setting up this ti, aren't you?"
He didn't care what rank of official the other was; dealing with high-level leaders, sotis being too polite could actually make things seem more distant.
Sure enough, Du Shancheng didn't mind and gave a bitter smile, "This old Chief was my first leader and took good care of along the way. Seeing him entangled by illness really makes feel guilty, so I had to trouble Mr. Lin."
Lin Hai nodded. Du Shancheng seed sincere and not at all pretentious; still rembering his old Chief even after rising to the position of provincial governor showed he was truly a good person.
"I just know a little bit of dical skill. I can't guarantee a cure, that's for sure."
Du Shancheng nodded, "Don't worry, Brother Lin, if you can't cure it, there's nothing we can do, and no one will bla you."
"May I know what illness the old leader has?"
"It's difficult to say; even the Imperial Physicians of Zhongnanhe are at their wit's end."
"Damn... seems like a tough case," Lin Hai rubbed the back of his head. He had been in contact with dical technology before, but it had been many years since he had delved deeply into it and he didn't know if he could make an accurate diagnosis now.
But from what Du Shancheng said, having him co seed like just giving it a try—fine if it worked, and no big deal if it didn't.
"Young Brother Lin, as long as you're willing to help this ti, if there's anything you need in the future—as long as it's not illegal or against discipline—I'll definitely help!"
Lin Hai smiled, "Then thank you, Secretary Du."
In fact, he was not willing to deal with these governnt officials, as he had another hidden identity.
Suddenly, Lin Hai's gaze was drawn to a piece of calligraphy.
"Hey? This calligraphy is quite unique," Lin Hai noticed as soon as he entered that the interior was decorated with care, clearly, all for the old Chief.
"Young Brother Lin also understands calligraphy?" Du Shancheng had always been curious about Lin Hai.
Lin Hai shook his head, "I don't understand it, but I reckon the person who wrote this calligraphy probably died not long after finishing it."
"Oh? That shouldn't be. This is the work of a great calligrapher, created when he was in his pri."
Lin Hai took a closer look and shook his head, "If that's the case, then this calligraphy must be a fake."
