She narrowed her eyes dangerously at Jiang Qing.
Jiang Qing shivered under the icy gaze.
That look on President Su’s face… Could it be because I praised Young Master Lin earlier, and now she’s recalling that novel’s plot again?
In that novel, the male lead was utterly devoted to the domineering female CEO on the surface, but behind her back, he was secretly involved with her secretary. In the end, he conspired with the secretary to seize control of the company and even had the CEO imprisoned. The male lead and the secretary then lived happily ever after.
President Su sometimes imagined herself as that female CEO, drawing parallels between herself and Young Master Lin…
At the thought, Jiang Qing wanted to slap herself.
Why did I ever let President Su read that novel?!
This is just asking for trouble!
"President Su," Jiang Qing racked her brain for a way to salvage the situation, "Young Master Lin is so capable—doesn’t that make him the perfect match for you?"
"You and Young Master Lin are practically made for each other."
"Hmm."
The chilling aura around Su Hua dissipated slightly.
Jiang Qing exhaled in relief.
Su Hua turned her attention back to the documents in front of her.
As she flipped through the pages, her brows furrowed tightly.
"The Carefree Physician?"
She had heard of this person before—a member of the Golden Dragon Gang, renowned for his extraordinary medical skills. Rumor had it he could even revive the dead.
Su Hua suddenly recalled the incident earlier that day when she was bitten by a snake while horseback riding and was saved by Xuan.
Xuan’s acupuncture technique clearly indicated his mastery of medicine.
A bold suspicion arose in Su Hua’s mind.
Could Xuan be the Carefree Physician?
She continued reading the documents.
The Carefree Physician had appeared in the Golden Dragon Gang just a month after its leader. With his exceptional medical skills, he had brought the gang substantial benefits.
His demeanor was carefree and unrestrained.
Could it really be… that the Carefree Physician is Xuan?
The more Su Hua read, the more convinced she became.
If that’s the case, then when Xuan mentioned a doctor who would treat me… was he referring to himself?
A sudden realization struck her, and she sharply lifted her gaze to Jiang Qing.
"Secretary Jiang, didn’t you say you would ask the Carefree Physician to treat me?"
"That’s right," Jiang Qing nodded. "But he hasn’t found a cure yet, so it’s been delayed. However, I heard from him that he’s already discovered a treatment method. For now, you just need to focus on recuperating. Once your health improves, they’ll proceed with the treatment."
Su Hua smirked.
So, it’s highly likely that the Carefree Physician is Xuan. And if not, he’s at least acting under Xuan’s orders.
"Jiang Qing, summon the doctor," Su Hua ordered.
She needed to verify whether her suspicions were correct.
"President Su, are you feeling unwell?" Jiang Qing asked with concern.
"I’m fine. I just need to ask her something."
A shadow flickered in Su Hua’s eyes.
I need to confirm Xuan’s words.
"Understood, President Su. I’ll arrange for her to come immediately."
Soon after, Jiang Qing returned with a female doctor from Night Rose.
"Alliance Leader," the doctor greeted respectfully.
Su Hua spoke calmly, "I’d like to know—how should one recuperate properly?"
"It’s quite simple. Maintain a regular sleep schedule, eat on time, and avoid overexertion. If the body is too weak, some nourishing tonics may be necessary. Beyond that, nothing else is required," the doctor replied.
Su Hua tapped her slender, jade-like fingers lightly on the desk.
"And during this recuperation period… is intimacy permissible?"
The doctor coughed lightly before answering, "Moderate intimacy can relieve psychological stress and enhance happiness, which is beneficial for recovery. However, excessive intimacy may lead to fatigue, which could hinder recuperation."
She glanced at Su Hua curiously.
Why is the Alliance Leader asking about this?
"Even with my unique constitution… there’s no exception?" Su Hua pressed further.
"No exception," the doctor affirmed.
Her medical expertise was world-class—she was certain about this.
"Good. You may leave now," Su Hua dismissed her.
A faint smile curled on her lips.
Xuan was being sneaky, wasn’t he? Telling me intimacy wasn’t allowed…
Perhaps I should punish him properly for this.
Jiang Qing noticed Su Hua’s smile and felt an odd sense of unease.
President Su looks pleased, even happy… but why do I feel like something ominous is about to happen?
Then again, if anything does happen, it’ll probably be directed at Young Master Lin.
Jiang Qing silently lit a metaphorical candle for Lin Xuan in her heart.
Su Hua picked up the documents again, reviewing the details about the Carefree Physician.
Tonight, I’ll pay Xuan a visit… and give him the punishment he deserves.
"Achoo!"
"Achoo!"
At the Golden Dragon Gang’s base, Lin Xuan sneezed several times in a row.
He rubbed his nose, puzzled.
What’s going on?
His temples were throbbing, and an inexplicable sense of foreboding weighed on him.
Ah, forget it. A man’s sixth sense is unreliable.
I’ll finish dinner first, deal with that troublemaker who challenged the gang, and tomorrow I can return to my Hua’er.
During dinner, Lin Xuan initiated a video call with Su Hua.
She sat elegantly on the sofa, dressed in a striking red cheongsam, her lips painted a bold crimson. The sight was dazzling.
Lin Xuan’s gaze involuntarily drifted to Su Hua’s chest.
The curves there are… quite pronounced.
Beneath the cheongsam, her skin must be as fair as snow.
In the past, Hua’er ate very little, but ever since his rebirth, he had made sure to feed her well.
She had indeed gained some weight—but only in certain areas.
Her waist remained slender, while her chest and hips had become fuller…
The feel of those places is especially delightful…
Ahem!
Lin Xuan quickly averted his eyes.
Why am I letting my thoughts wander like this?
"Xuan, did you need something?" Su Hua asked, her red lips curving into a smile.
"Nothing urgent," Lin Xuan replied. "I just wanted to chat with you."
He turned the camera toward his dinner spread. "This is what I’m having tonight."
"That’s quite a lot," Su Hua raised an eyebrow. "Are you dining with someone?"
Lin Xuan immediately assumed she suspected him of eating with other women.
For the sake of my kidneys, I’d better clarify!
"I’m just having dinner with some subordinates," he explained, panning the camera to show a few Golden Dragon Gang members.
"Hello, Sister-in-law!" Wang Ba greeted cheerfully.
"Hmm." Su Hua acknowledged with a nod.
The title "Sister-in-law" pleased her.
"Sister-in-law, don’t worry, our boss—"
Lin Xuan shot him a warning glare.
Wang Ba quickly corrected himself, "I mean, President Lin has been keeping to himself here. He hasn’t gone near any other women. You can rest assured, President Su."
"Absolutely!" the other gang members chimed in. "President Su, President Lin is completely devoted to you!"
