“Dr. Lin, then what should we do about CEO Tang’s condition now?” Chen Xiaoxiao asked anxiously.
“I’ll adjust three of the herbs. With these changes, the prescription will become an effective remedy for CEO Tang’s recovery,” Lin Tong replied calmly while pulling out a pen from his chest pocket. He crossed out three ingredients on the prescription and replaced them with others.
Watching his composed and confident manner, Chen Xiaoxiao finally felt a sense of relief.
She let out a quiet breath.
“Thank goodness we had Dr. Lin take a look. Otherwise, this could’ve gone horribly wrong.”
Fortunately, she thought, they had Dr. Lin here.
Otherwise, that so-called miracle doctor Xu Tian brought might’ve killed CEO Tang!
As expected, Xu Tian was nothing but a useless, troublemaking fool.
Seeing Chen Xiaoxiao’s expression, Lin Tong gave a faint smile.
The three herbs he had replaced seemed drastically different to outsiders, but anyone familiar with medicine would know they had very similar properties. While there was a small risk in changing them, from his experience, it wouldn’t affect the prescription much.
More importantly, this would show Chen Xiaoxiao that his medical skills were far superior to Zhang Zizhen’s—a perfect opportunity to showcase his value.
On the way out of the hospital, Zhang Zizhen hesitated for a moment, then couldn’t help but ask Xu Tian, “Mr. Xu, what you told me yesterday—was it really all just a dream?”
Zhang Zizhen didn’t believe Xu Tian had set the fire himself. After all, there was no back door at the clinic, and the only way in was through the front. Plus, Lin Xiao had been in the back room the whole time. It was impossible for Xu Tian to start a fire unnoticed.
But how had Xu Tian known there would be a fire at the clinic?
Dreaming about it? He just couldn’t believe that.
Xu Tian smiled slightly. “Elder Zhang, you could say… I have a gift. I can foresee certain things.”
“Foresee the future?” Zhang Zizhen was stunned.
Could someone like that really exist in the world—possessing a power that defied science?
Unable to make sense of it, and seeing Xu Tian wasn’t inclined to explain, Zhang Zizhen simply shook his head and stopped asking.
Regardless of how Xu Tian knew, this was a favor he would remember.
“Mr. Xu, if you have time, feel free to visit the clinic sometime.”
Xu Tian smiled. “I will.”
After sending Zhang Zizhen and Lin Xiao off, Xu Tian was just about to head back to the ward when a sweet, familiar voice rang out behind him—
“Brother Tian!”
Before he could react, a woman in a red off-shoulder dress suddenly threw herself into his arms.
“Brother Tian, didn’t you say the night before last that you’d call me when you got home?”
“I waited for you all day and night! I asked Brother Xu and found out you were here!”
“Brother Tian, have you divorced that Tang woman yet? When are you finally going to marry me?”
She clung tightly to Xu Tian’s chest. Her big, bright eyes shimmered, delicate eyebrows arched in expectation, and her long lashes trembled gently—utterly captivating.
Xu Tian frowned with disgust and immediately pushed the woman away.
His lips curled into a cold sneer.
This woman was none other than the one caught with him during the ‘cheating’ scene—Tang Bingyan’s supposed rival.
Lin Miaoyin.
She had grown up with Xu Tian—a childhood friend.
Whether she had been manipulated by Xu Rixin or was part of the scheme willingly, it didn’t matter. That night’s act was obviously premeditated.
“Lin Miaoyin, after setting me up, you still have the nerve to say this to me?” Xu Tian stared at her coldly, his dark eyes filled with icy contempt.
Startled, Lin Miaoyin felt like she was looking at a stranger.
What was going on? Why did Xu Tian suddenly feel so unfamiliar?
She scrambled to explain, “Brother Tian, I didn’t try to hurt you. I just wanted to—”
“Enough.”
“You don’t need to come find me again.”
With that, Xu Tian turned and walked straight back into the hospital, leaving Lin Miaoyin standing there with tears welling in her eyes.
She wanted to stop him, wanted to explain—but that single, heartless glance from Xu Tian just now had said it all.
He hated her. He no longer cared for her.
She bit her lip and walked away from the hospital, tears streaming silently down her cheeks.
In the alley near the hospital, Xu Rixin watched Lin Miaoyin run past while wiping her tears. A cold smirk curled at the corners of his lips.
He had followed her the moment she rushed off to find Xu Tian. Enjoying the story? Read on at g.com.
And now, he had seen everything—the embrace, the timing, the setup—everything captured clearly.
A greasy-looking young man appeared beside him, chuckling as he handed over his phone. “Boss Xu, it’s done.”
On the screen was a photo of Xu Tian and Lin Miaoyin embracing.
The picture was well shot, with only a side profile of Xu Tian’s face, so his expression was unclear. But Lin Miaoyin’s tearful, pitiful look was captured perfectly—like a woman begging her man to stay.
If someone didn’t know better, they’d think Lin Miaoyin was Xu Tian’s wife.
“Nice work,” Xu Rixin said as he glanced at the photo, his grin widening. “Send it to me. I’ll transfer the money to your account.”
“Thank you, Boss Xu!” the sleazy youth beamed and bowed repeatedly.
Xu Rixin narrowed his eyes, looking toward the direction where Xu Tian had disappeared.
What a pity—he didn’t have Tang Bingyan’s contact info.
If only he could send this photo to her right now—it’d be perfect.
Inside the hospital…
“Start preparing the medicine immediately. Once it’s ready, deliver it to the room.” Chen Xiaoxiao handed the prescription to a subordinate. Just as she did, her phone chimed with a message.
Frowning, she took it out and saw an unfamiliar number had sent her a photo.
She opened it out of curiosity—
And the next second, her pupils shrank sharply.
It was a photo of Xu Tian and Lin Miaoyin hugging!
“Xu Tian!!!”
Chen Xiaoxiao clenched her phone tightly, her hands shaking from fury.
She was squeezing so hard, her fingers turned pale.
How could there be such a shameless man in this world?!
One minute he’s trying to win Tang Bingyan back, acting so sincere—and the next, he’s out embracing another woman?
And it was the same woman who was caught in bed with him before!
They weren’t even divorced yet! And he dared to act so brazenly?
Trash!
That bastard Xu Tian was pure scum!
