Chapter 776
At the Swanson Group headquarters, they occasionally arranged for doctors to come to the company to check on the higher-ups.
Therefore, Shi Luo did not doubt the authenticity of the other party’s identity. He only asked, “Doctor from the headquarters? Do you know who sent him here?”
Could it be that Ulric Swanson had called him over to deliberately trip him up so that he could submit to him as soon as possible?
Shilou felt a chill run down his back at the thought of the horrible woman he’d seen in the private estate.
He Bing shook his head and said, “I don’t know exactly who sent them, but during the day of my company’s physical examination before the new year, I found severe fatty liver. I don’t know if it’s because of this that the headquarters sent a doctor to especially give me a physical examination.”
Shi Luo was silent for a moment, but he was still worried. He said, “Let’s go and take a look.”
He wanted to see what kind of background the other party had to be able to make the smart assistant He Bing make such a low-level mistake.
“Yes…”
On the way, Shi Luo went to the washroom. While he was washing his hands, he happened to hear a discussion coming from the female washroom next door.
“I heard that the doctor who came was very arrogant. Without CEO He’s approval, she actually went to his office.”
“I heard that too. I have a good relationship with the receptionist. They hate that woman too.”
“What? Is it actually a female doctor? I’m afraid it’s someone from the headquarters…”
Listening to the discussion, Shi Luo frowned. He was even more anxious to see the “doctor from headquarters”.
He quickly washed his hands and walked to He Bing, who was waiting at the door.
He Bing had obviously heard the discussion. He observed Shi Luo’s expression and said, “CEO Shi, that doctor…”
Shi Luo interrupted He Bing.
“Let’s go! Let’s go meet her!”
He wanted to see who the other party was!
Two minutes later, Shi Luo was the first to push open the frosted door of He Bing’s office.
He saw a rather ugly woman sitting quietly on the sofa. She looked young, but her aura made people not dare to ignore her easily.
The man in the suit next to her was well-built. He was even bigger than the bodyguard he had brought with him.
It seemed that this woman was the doctor everyone was talking about.
It was different from what he had imagined.
Since she was so ugly, it was impossible for her to be the lover of one of the higher-ups in the headquarters. There was no need to care about anyone’s face.
In any case, it was fine as long as it was not the woman who had secretly poisoned him in the private manor.
Shi Luo heaved a sigh of relief. His expression gradually darkened.
Similarly, Melody Fox was also sizing him up.
He was slightly older than in the photo. His eyebrows were filled with fatigue, and his eyes were green. It seemed that she had been immersed in the gentleness last night and had not rested enough.
Of course, it could also be caused by the poison in his body.
However, if she did not take his pulse, she would not be able to figure out what poison it was.
When Shi Luo saw Melody Fox sizing him up brazenly, his already displeased expression became even uglier.
When he saw her enter, he gave her a look. She immediately understood and took a few steps forward. ” Are you the doctor who came to check on me?”
Melody nodded slightly and slowly stood up.
“You’re He Bing, right?”
He Bing also frowned.
After all, he was the head of the branch company. Even Shi Luo would not call him by his name. Did this woman know any etiquette?
He said unhappily, “It’s true that I’m He Bing, but I’m very healthy and don’t need a checkup! Go back to the headquarters directly and just say that I’m fine!”
He Bing immediately ordered her to leave.
Shi Luo could not wait for such a person to leave, so he put on an expression that said, “Hurry up and leave.”
Melody deliberately did not look at Shi Luo anymore. She only smiled faintly and confirmed with He Bing, “Are you sure you’re alright?”
He Bing said angrily, “Don’t I know my own body? Do I need to tell you again? I don’t need you to examine me!”
Aaron Berg immediately said, “How can you speak to our Miss Miracle Doctor like that? You…”
Melody raised her hand and stopped Aaron Berg from speaking.
She looked deeply at He Bing and said calmly, “Since you don’t need me to check, forget it.”
He Bing pointed at the door of her office.
“Take care.”
Melody lowered her eyes and smiled. “President He, are you in such a hurry to chase me away because you think your life is too long?”
He Bing’s face instantly darkened.
“Woman, how can you speak like that!”
Melody shrugged gently and said, “Have you been feeling stuffy and short of breath recently? Do you start to feel weak and constipated whenever you do something?”
He Bing was stunned and blurted out subconsciously,” How did you know…” “Traditional medicine is particular about looking, hearing, asking, and checking. Although I’ve never taken your pulse, I can tell from your expression that your body has already lit up with a red light. If you don’t believe me, you can go to the hospital now to check your liver.”
“F-fake, right? How can you tell what’s wrong with me with one look?” He Bing still had her rationality and questioned,” You saw my medical report and knew that I have fatty liver, right?”
“Fat liver?” Melody Fox could not help but laugh. “Your current situation is not just fat liver, Janet Murphy. If you don’t start treatment soon, I’m afraid it will develop into cirrhosis soon.”
He Bing was so frightened that her face slowly turned pale. “You, don’t scare people…”
“What’s in it for me to scare you?” Melody tidied up her sleeves and said, “Alright, since I’ve met you, my mission is completed. Goodbye, both of you.”
As she spoke, she led Aaron Berg to the door.
Melody Fox pretended to unintentionally bump into Shi Lou’s shoulder as she passed by Shilo.
Shi Luo had a bad preconceived impression of her, so he immediately made an unhappy “tsk” sound.
Melody stopped in her tracks and slowly glanced at Shi Luo.
“I just accidentally bumped into you… Why are you so calculative when you’re about to die?”
Shi Luo suddenly looked at her. His gaze was as if he had seen a ghost.
Had this woman actually seen through his poisoning?!
However, he had secretly gone to the hospital to see a doctor. Blood tests, urine tests… All kinds of tests had been done, but the hospital could not find any problems.
However, this woman had actually noticed him with just a few glances?
Could it be that… she was really a miracle doctor?
“A dying man?”
On the other side, He Bing was furious.
He took a few steps forward and pointed at Melody Fox’s nose as he scolded, “What’s wrong with you, woman? It’s fine if you cursed me for cirrhosis just now, but now you actually dare to be rude to CEO Shi? Don’t think that you’re so great just because you’re sent by the headquarters. CEO Shi was also sent by the headquarters!”
“He Bing!” Shi Luo frowned. “Don’t say that.”
Of course, it was impossible for He Bing to know what had happened to Shi Luo, so he only thought that Shi Luo had a good temper.
Chapter 777
“CEO Shi, I know you have a good temper and don’t want to lower yourself to her level, but I really can’t take it anymore. This woman has already made the entire company unhappy with her. I won’t let such a person do whatever she wants!”
As He Bing spoke, he glared at Melody and said, “You! Apologize to Boss Shi and me immediately. Otherwise, don’t even think about leaving the company today!”
So what if they were sent by the headquarters?
She was just a doctor. The headquarters had sent her here for her own health.
Obviously, to the company, he was the more important one. Therefore, he could treat her with whatever attitude he wanted.
“Apologize?” Melody looked at He Bing in amusement. I didn’t say anything wrong. Why should I apologize?” “That’s right!” Aaron Berg played the role of a lackey and chimed in, “It’s already your honor that the Miracle Doctor is willing to read your physiognomy. It’s fine if you’re not grateful, but you actually want her to apologize to you? Is there something wrong with your brain?”
“You-“
He Bing could not take it anymore. She raised his fist and was about to swing it at Aaron Berg’s head.
However, just as he raised his hand, Shi Luo pushed it back. “He Bing! Calm down!”
“Boss Shi, they’re simply…”
“Enough!” Shi Luo frowned and said, “I’ll take care of them.
Go and see if Fang Jianguo needs anything.”
“Fang Jianguo?” Melody muttered to herself.
She found the name familiar as if she had heard it somewhere before.
Under Shi Luo’s warning, He Bing could only suppress the anger in his heart, but he was still unwilling.
“CEO Shi, if you don’t want to hear her apologize, I’ll get her out of the company now.”
Shi Luo had completely lost his patience.
He glared at He Bing coldly and said, “Don’t you understand what I’m saying?”
He Bing was shocked. He lowered his head and did not dare to make another sound.
To put it nicely, he was the head of the branch company, but to put it bluntly, he had only made a mistake and was transferred here by Ramon Swanson.
When Shi Luo saw that He Bing was finally quiet, he quickly looked at Melody and asked, “I wonder… how should I address you?”
“My last name is Fox.”
“Doctor Fox…” Shi Luo forced a smile and asked, “What do you mean by what you just said?”
“A dying man?”
“That’s right.”
Melody smiled gently and said, “It’s fine if you want to know what this means, but you have to pay the
consultation fee. I never treat people for free.”
The smile on Shi Luo’s face faded.
“How much is your consultation fee?”
“It depends on the situation. Your situation is more complicated, so the price is relatively high. Let’s give… 4, 532,660,000.”
“4,532,660,000? Heh…” Shi Luo laughed.
“Why? Do you think your life is not worth 4,532,660,000?” The smile on Shiloh’s face vanished completely.
“It’s not that my life isn’t worth 4,532,660,000 yuan. It’s just that you’re not worth it. A little girl who’s still wet behind the ears actually dares to ask for 4,532,660,000 yuan. Do you really think I’m a fool?”
He had already confirmed that this woman was right. She was a liar with no real ability.
He did not know if it was because of his superb deception skills that he managed to trick the people from the headquarters.
But trying to fool him, Shi Luo? No way!
Melody looked nonchalant.
“Since you don’t need my treatment, forget it. But if you come begging me again in the future, I won’t just ask for 4, 532,660,000 yuan.”
Shi Luo’s face darkened. “Don’t worry, this will never happen.” “Alright, then I wish you a speedy recovery.”
Melody reached out and patted Shi Luo’s shoulder.
The smell of perfume on his wrist reached Shiloh’s nose. He subconsciously frowned and slapped Melody’s hand away in disgust.
“Don’t touch me! Get lost!”
Melody Fox was neither embarrassed nor angry. As if there were no emotional fluctuations, she turned around and gestured for Aaron Berg to leave.
As soon as the two of them left, He Bing immediately walked to Shi Luo’s side and asked in a low voice, “CEO Shi, I keep feeling that this woman is very strange. Do you need me to call the headquarters and ask to see who sent her?” “There’s no need,” Shi Luo said coldly. “Most of the higher-ups in the headquarters are fat vermin. Examining your body might just be an excuse for them to increase their expenses on purpose to gain benefits for themselves. After all, they can earn a lot of money by inviting a so-called famous doctor to the various branches to examine the higher-ups. If you touch their cake, it might be disadvantageous to you.”
He Bing nodded and said gratefully, “Thank you for your reminder, CEO Shi. I almost got into trouble.”
“Do your best. After this project is completely implemented, there might be a possibility of being transferred back to the headquarters. It’s not good to stay in the branch company all the time.”
“Yes, yes, yes.”
Previously, the two of them were direct subordinates of Ramon Swanson, so their relationship was not bad.
This was also one of the reasons why Shi Luo kindly reminded He Bing.
“As for Fang Jianguo…” Shi Luo was about to get down to business when he suddenly felt a shortness of breath in his chest. For a moment, his heart skipped a beat.
Fortunately, in less than two seconds, the feeling of being on the verge of death disappeared.
However, Shi Luo still had lingering fears.
The woman beside Ulric Swanson said that if he was still unsure of his side within half a month, he would suffer from angina to death…
However, looking at his current physical condition, he would probably have to go back and ask Ulric Swanson for the antidote.
He Bing could tell that something was wrong with Shi Luo’s expression. She asked in shock, “CEO Shi, what’s wrong?” “I’m fine. I’m just a little tired. It’s nothing serious.”
However, He Bing recalled Melody Fox’s shocking words and could not help but say, “Boss Shi, why don’t… you go to the hospital for a checkup?”
“There’s no need.”
At Silverlake, he had already secretly visited First Hospital and Central Hospital. These two hospitals did not find any problems, let alone small hospitals like Lin City.
“Alright, have a good rest. I’ll go to the legal department to see how the final contract is going.”
Even so, He Bing planned to take advantage of the situation to secretly go to the hospital for a liver checkup.
Humans were afraid of death. Even if he did not believe
Melody, he would rather believe it than not.
Melody Fox also returned to the car parked at the entrance of the branch office.
James Deeds, who had clearly learned what had happened from the brooch, he asked with a look of disappointment, “Miss Fox, Shilo had clearly taken the bait just now. Isn’t this what we wanted? Why do you have to ask for that one thousand dollars million? If you really lack money, I can give you this one thousand dollars million!”
After following Young Master for so many years, he could easily fork out a mere 4,532,660,000 yuan.
However, he did not expect Melody to be so narrow-minded!
“Do you know how important Shi Luo is to the young master to establish himself in the headquarters?!”
Chapter 778
James Deeds continued with an ugly expression.
“All the capable people in the company follow Shi Luo’s lead. Taking down Shi Luo is equivalent to taking control of most of the truly capable talents in the company. But now, for a mere 4,532,660,000, you forcefully pushed Shi Luo, who had already taken the bait, away. Do you know that?” “We spent most of the day planning yesterday. Weren’t we just trying to get him to take the bait?”
“In order to prove that you’re a doctor sent by the headquarters, Aaron Berg and I didn’t sleep for almost the entire night just to make up a fake identity for you!”
James Deeds knew that he should not speak to Melody Fox in such a tone, but when he thought of Melody’s performance in front of Shilo, he could not help but vent the anger in his chest.
Facing James Deeds’s accusation, Melody was not angry.
She knew that it was precisely because James Deeds was sincerely thinking about Ken Swanson’s interests that he was in such a hurry.
Such a hot-tempered person was the most sincere and trustworthy.
“James Deeds, don’t be anxious. I have my reasons for doing this…”
Aaron Berg could not stand it anymore. He could not help but say to James Deeds, “Mr. Deeds, Miss Fox, must have other plans. You are not present, therefore, you might not be able to sense Shi Luo’s attitude. Under those circumstances, although Shi Luo took the initiative to ask Miss Fox about his condition, he did not completely trust her. It’s better to delay it first and find another opportunity. Perhaps this is better.”
“Shut up! Is it your turn to speak?”
Aaron Berg lowered his head. “Yes, it’s all my fault, Mr. Deeds.”
James Deeds did not even look at Aaron Berg. He directly said to Melody Fox, “You said you have your own ideas. Tell me about them.”
However, as soon as he said that, James Deeds regretted it. He was so depressed that his face turned green and white. It was not because of anything else, but because Miss Fox had her reasons for every arrangement.
Fortunately, Miss Fox did not seem to be angry?
Melody Fox raised her wrist and looked at him. She said, “I have something else I need you to do now. I don’t have time to explain it to you. Help me check which company they’re discussing a collaboration with today.” “Yes…” James Deeds was too embarrassed to say anything else. He lowered his head and used his phone to contact the people from the branch company.
Ken Swanson had spies and manpower all over every branch company, and Lincheng was no exception.
Less than a minute after the message was sent, James Deeds received an answer.
“I found it. They’re discussing a collaboration with Lincheng’s local New City Construction Materials Group.”
“What’s the name of their vice president?”
“Huh? Why are you asking this?”
“Just check it out.”
James Deeds quickly began to investigate. In less than half a minute, he found it.
“His name is Zhang Heming.”
Melody Fox raised her eyebrows and muttered, “I didn’t expect it to really be him…”
The man she had saved last night.
It seemed that the name “Fang Jianguo” she heard was not the same name.
“Halcyon, according to the rules of the business world, will definitely organize a banquet in the afternoon. We also need you to investigate the location of the banquet now. Then, we will leave immediately.”
“I casually asked about that just now. It’s at the largest hotel in Lin City, Millennium Hotel.”
“Alright, book a restaurant. It’s best if it’s next door. We’ll set off immediately after that.”
“Yes,” James Deeds replied. He suddenly thought of Ken Swanson and asked hesitantly, “What about the young master?”
“He can just wait at the hotel. There are too many people at the dinner, in case someone from Ulric Swanson is inside, so it’s best if he doesn’t show his face.”
“Yes.”
Although James Deeds lacked EQ, he was still very efficient.
Soon, he arranged a private room opposite the private room that the other party had reserved.
About 30 minutes later, they arrived at the Millennium Hotel.
After sitting down in the private room, Melody talked to James Deeds about her thoughts.
“It’s only after I met Shi Luo face-to-face that I really understand him. This person is a little arrogant and won’t give in easily. And judging from his reaction, he probably knows that if he doesn’t surrender, his life will be shortened in days.”
“But it’s also because of his arrogance that he hasn’t officially given in to Ulric Swanson yet. However, even the most arrogant person is afraid of death. On the day the poison completely acts up, he will definitely stand on Ulric Swanson’s side.”
“So, before we do, we’re going to give Shi Lou a choice. Of course, that’s not really letting him choose which side, Ulric Swanson or us. We’ll save him just so he’d think he had another choice.”
“Only when arrogant people make their own choices will they be loyal to their own choices. Otherwise, they will only waver like those fence-sitters.”
James Deeds said with a confused expression, “Miss Fox, with all due respect… I don’t understand what you’re saying.”
Melody smiled gently and said, “It’s fine if you don’t understand. Other than you, I mainly want to tell someone else.”
“Who?”
Melody tapped the phone on the table. Only then did James Deeds notice that Melody had just sent a voice message.
The sender was Ken Swanson.
Although they had already confirmed their feelings and were officially husband and wife, she still had to be professional and explain things to Ken Swanson.
Ding dong. Ken Swanson replied in words, “I understand what you mean. Do everything according to your thoughts.”
James Deeds couldn’t help but feel inferior.
Why did these two people… make him look like a fool?
He sighed and asked what he was curious about.
“Miss Fox, you don’t have to explain what you just said to me. I’m a person with a small brain and can’t think about very profound things. I’m just curious about one thing. Since we’re going to save him, why did you ask him to pay 4,532,660,000? Why didn’t you agree to treat him just like that?”
“Because he doesn’t trust me at all, so I have to do something big…”
Melody shook her wrist and smiled. “I’ve applied something special on my wrist. It will trigger the poison in advance.”
“You mean to let him flare up and then we can take the opportunity to treat him?”
“Not to take the opportunity to treat him, but to make him beg us for treatment. Have you forgotten? I just said to give him a chance to choose.”
James Deeds immediately became nervous.
“Then what should we do now? What should we prepare?”
Melody Fox did not answer. Instead, she talked about something else.
“I saved a man last night. Now it’s time to collect the reward.”
James Deeds was confused.
“What do you mean? What man?”
“You’ll find out later.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Aaron Berg pushed the door open and entered.
“Miss Fox, they’re here.”
“Has Zhang Heming arrived?”
“Not yet.”
“Then let’s keep waiting.”
About ten minutes later, Aaron Berg brought the latest news again.
“Zhang Heming’s car has arrived.”
Melody stretched and said, “What’s wrong with this hotel? Why are the dishes so slow? Let’s go, Aaron Berg. Let’s go and rush the dishes.”
Chapter 779
James Deeds hurriedly wanted to follow them out, but he was stopped by Melody’s gaze.
“You don’t have to come out. Just stay here and wait for someone.”
James Deeds knew that he was not smart enough, so he asked directly, “Who are you waiting for?”
“Shi Luo.”
“Shi Luo’s coming?”
“That’s right. But, you just have to pretend that you don’t know anything so that, he can make a ‘choice’.”
James Deeds scratched his head. “Anyway… I’ll wait for your signal when it’s time.”
Melody made an “OK” gesture and walked out of the private room with Aaron Berg.
Meanwhile, in the opposite private room…
Shi Luo called He Bing one after another, but it was as if He Bing had disappeared from the face of the earth. He could not contact her no matter how hard he tried.
“What about his assistant? Has his assistant contacted him?”
The secretary behind him nodded and said helplessly, “I’ve contacted her, but the assistant said that she doesn’t know where President He went…”
“Damn it, Zhang Heming and the others are about to arrive. This idiot actually disappeared at this important juncture”
“Boss Shi, what should we do now?”
Shi Luo said irritably, “What can we do? We can only say that he’s not feeling well and will come over later. Follow me to the door to pick up Zhang Heming first. As for the others… contact He Bing to take a look.”
“Yes!”
After receiving a response, Shi Luo left with his assistant.
However, just as he walked out of the private room, he saw two familiar figures not far away.
Melody Fox and Aaron Berg were walking towards the restaurant’s service counter when a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind them-
“It’s you again, woman! You actually followed us?!”
When Melody heard this, the corners of her lips slowly curled into a subtle smile.
She turned slowly and caught Shi Lou’s eye.
“It really is you!”
Shi Luo took a few steps forward and said coldly, “Speak! Where did He Bing go?!”
He seriously suspected that He Bing’s inexplicable disappearance at this critical juncture had a lot to do with this female liar!
“He Bing?” Melody Fox frowned in confusion. “Is he missing?”
“Stop pretending. Tell me! Did you trick He Bing again after you left the office?”
“CEO Shi, I can understand that you hate me, but I don’t accept such groundless accusations.”
“That’s right!” Aaron Berg spoke up for Melody Fox. “We wanted to ask you why you appeared where we were. Did you follow us? Let me tell you, even if you kneel down and beg Miss Fox now, she won’t treat you.”
Shi Luo carefully sized up the two of them. After a moment, he said, “Is it really none of your business if He Bing doesn’t see you?”
Melody looked like he could not be bothered with Shi Lou. She turned around and said to Aaron Berg, “Let’s go. Ignore him.”
“Yes, Miss Fox.”
Aaron Berg bowed and followed Melody Fox to the reception desk.
Seeing that the two of them were really leaving, Shi Luo’s suspicion was mostly gone.
It seemed that He Bing’s sudden disappearance had nothing to do with them.
However, he still had to confirm if these two people had followed him here.
“You guys wait…”
As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Luo saw Zhang Heming and the others walking out of the elevator in front of him.
The better for both parties, the more they could sign the contract after the meal. Therefore, Zhang Heming’s team included the legal team of Xin Cheng Construction Materials. There were seven or eight of them in a group, and they were so dense that people could see them at a glance.
Shi Luo couldn’t care less about Melody.
He quickly composed himself and put on a polite smile as he led his subordinates to welcome them.
“President Zhang…”
However, there was no response.
He looked at Zhang Heming in confusion, only to see Zhang Heming looking in a certain direction in shock.
Shi Luo could not help but follow Zhang Heming’s gaze. The person Zhang Heming was looking at was none other than Melody Fox, who was talking to the hotel staff!
Damn it, it was that woman again!
Could it be that she was taking revenge on him for kicking her out of the company and starting to interfere with their cooperation with Xin Cheng’s construction materials?
When he thought about how Ramon Swanson would definitely question him if the collaboration failed, Shi Luo broke out in a cold sweat.
He said to Zhang Heming in a panic, “President Zhang, did that crazy woman say something stupid to you? Don’t believe what she said. She’s a liar…”
Zhang Heming recovered from his surprise. He frowned and turned to look at Shi Luo. “Who are you calling a crazy woman?”
“She…”
Shi Luo pointed at Melody Fox. As soon as he raised his head, he saw Zhang Heming’s face filled with anger. He looked like he wanted to beat him up.
What was going on…
Zhang Heming was stunned.
“C-Chairman Zhang?”
“Damn it!” Zhang Heming couldn’t take it anymore and cursed.
If not for the fact that Shi Luo was from the Swanson Group, he would have beaten him up by now!
Although a strong dragon could not suppress a local snake, if the Swanson Group really wanted to get the building materials for the new city, it would only take a moment.
However, he still could not stand the other party calling his savior a lunatic.
“She’s not crazy! She saved my life! If it weren’t for her last night, I would have died on the island!”
“Wh-what?” Shiloh asked in disbelief. “Are you sure you didn’t recognize the wrong person?”
Zhang Heming could not be bothered to answer Shi Luo anymore. He was afraid that if he continued, he would not be able to help but attack Shi Luo.
“Miracle Doctor! Benefactor!”
Zhang Heming shouted as he walked towards Melody Fox.
His subordinates, including Fang Jianguo, followed him subconsciously.
Shi Luo quickly pulled Fang Jianguo and asked, “Mr. Fang, what’s going on?”
When Fang Jianguo saw such a big shot taking the initiative to hold him back, he quickly replied
subconsciously, “It’s just as our vice president said. Our vice president unintentionally… Anyway, he was sick and went to the island to relax. In the end, he suddenly fainted. That miracle doctor used a very magical prescription. After that, our vice president was revived. In short… that miracle doctor was very amazing.”
Fang Jianguo was now in awe of Melody Fox.
When he thought about how he had repeatedly questioned Melody Fox’s medical skills last night, he regretted it so much that he wanted to bite off his tongue.
Fortunately, the vice president was saved in the end. Otherwise, he would have committed a huge sin!
“That woman? Are you sure?”
“I thought she was here to follow me. I’m sure it’s her.”
Shi Luo’s expression immediately changed.
If the other party’s medical skills were really as good as Fang Jianguo and Zhang Heming said, wouldn’t he have destroyed his chance to exchange 4,532,660,000 yuan for his life?
4,532,660,000…
He had spent more than 4,532,660 dollars on every female companion!
Regret and annoyance slowly surfaced on his cheeks. Coincidentally, at that moment, his phone suddenly rang.
It was a call from He Bing.
He quickly answered the call. He was already frustrated, but when he spoke, his tone was extremely annoyed.
“He Bing! Where did you go?!”
Chapter 780
On the other end of the line, He Bing was shocked and quickly said, “I’m sorry, Boss Shi. There are too many people queuing here, so I’m late without realizing it. I’m already on my way over.”
Shi Luo was already troubled, and hearing He Bing’s voice made him even more annoyed.
“Where the hell are you?”
“I… -I’m at the hospital…”
“Hospital?” Shi Luo was stunned. He asked in shock, “Why did you come to the hospital for no reason?”
On the other end of the phone, He Bing said with a complicated tone, “Didn’t the doctor in the morning say that there was something wrong with my liver? After thinking about it, I still came to the hospital for a checkup.”
“What do you mean you went to be checked? Why do you have to choose this juncture? After we sign the contract, you can check as long as you want.”
“Yes, it’s all my fault. Boss Shi, don’t be angry. Help me delay for a while. I’ll be right over.”
Shi Luo was about to hang up in frustration when he suddenly remembered what Fang Jianguo had said. Miracle doctor…
Shi Luo asked, “Are the results out yet?”
“It’s out!” Seeing that Shi Luo had no intention of scolding him anymore, He Bing heaved a sigh of relief and said with a worried expression, “That liar really guessed it. There’s really something wrong with my liver.”
Shi Luo’s heart tightened.
“What did the doctor say?”
“The doctor said that my liver infiltration is very serious now. It’s caused by the fatty liver. If I don’t start treatment soon, it will develop into cirrhosis of the liver. Fortunately, what I found now is still considered curable… I really didn’t expect my liver to be so serious in just half a year without a physical examination…”
Shi Luo almost didn’t hear what He Bing said after that.
What Melody said to He Bing kept replaying in his mind.
–Your current condition is not just fatty livers. If you don’t start treatment soon, I’m afraid it will develop into cirrhosis.
The woman’s words were exactly the same as the doctor He Bing had seen.
However, the problem was… the doctor only found out after reading the medical report. On the other hand, the woman could tell that something was wrong with He Bing’s liver with her naked eye.
Was it really as He Bing had said? Was it just a coincidence? Had she guessed correctly?
Shi Luo did not care that He Bing was still talking on the other end of the phone. His finger had already hung up.
He turned to look at Melody in a daze. His gaze was unprecedentedly serious and formal.
Similarly, Melody Fox, who was complaining that the food was being served too slowly, noticed from the corner of her eye that Shi Lou was looking at her.
Her lips curled up almost imperceptibly as she continued to say to the waiter, “Please hurry up a little…”
“Benefactor! Miss Benefactor!”
Zhang Heming shouted at Melody repeatedly and finally walked up to Melody Fox.
“Benefactor! I’ve finally found you!”
Melody looked surprised. “It’s you? I thought someone was calling me benefactor…”
Zhang Heming bowed to Melody and said, “Thank you for saving me last night. Otherwise, I would no longer be in this world.”
Melody shook her head gently and said, “Traditional medicine is very particular about medical relationships. You and I met there because you’re not destined to die. Do more good deeds in the future. I believe that the heavens won’t mistreat any good person.”
Zhang Heming nodded repeatedly.
“Benefactor is right. I will definitely do more good deeds in the future and accumulate good karma. However, I don’t know how to address you.”
“My last name is Fox.”
“Miss Fox! Thank you Miss Fox for saving my life. It was so chaotic last night that I didn’t have time to thank you.”
As Zhang Heming spoke, he gave Fang Jianguo a look.
Fang Jianguo immediately understood and quickly took out the check that he should have given Melody last night.
Zhang Heming was afraid that Melody would misunderstand that he had thrown money at her. As he handed the check over, he said, “I really don’t know how to thank you. I can only use these things to express my gratitude.”
Melody did not even look at the amount of the check. She smiled and said, “There’s no need for these worldly possessions. You’ve already repaid me.”
“Huh? Repaid for What?”
Melody smiled without saying anything.
Zhang Heming’s appearance was the best repayment to her.
However, Zhang Heming insisted on giving her a check. Melody could only say, “If you really feel bad, then you can treat me to lunch today. I won’t pay the bill later.”
“Is, is that all?”
“I believe that if I need any help in Lin City in the future, Mr. Zhang will definitely help me, right?”
To her now, favors were more important than money.
“Of course! As long as Miss Fox says the word, I’ll go through fire and water!”
Zhang Heming was truly grateful.
He later looked back at the surveillance records in the bistro and knew everything that had happened.
In his eyes, Melody was no different from a second parent.
Under Zhang Heming’s strong request, the two of them exchanged phone numbers.
“Then I’ll go back to the private room to eat. I’ll thank President Zhang for treating me on behalf of
my friends.” “No, no, this is what I should do. Which private room are you in? I’ll send you there.”
“There’s no need. It’s not far behind…”
There were still James Deeds, Aaron Berg, and Melody Fox in the private room. She rejected Zhang Heming’s enthusiasm and turned around to walk towards their private room.
When she passed by Shi Luo, Melody did not even give Shi Luo a glance. Instead, Aaron Berg, who was beside him, self-taught. He glared at Shi Luo coldly and said, “Stop following us! Miss Fox likes peace and quiet!”
Shi Lou swallowed the apology he wanted to say awkwardly.
However, the more this was the case, the more he regretted his bad attitude towards Melody.
“Boss Shi…”
The secretary beside him reminded him in a low voice,” CEO Zhang seems to be a little dissatisfied with you…”
Shi Luo suddenly came back to his senses and quickly retracted his gaze from Melody’s back. He turned around and walked towards Zhang Heming.
“President Zhang… I’m really sorry about just now.”
However, Zhang Heming did not buy it. The polite smile on his face was no longer there. He said in a business-like manner, “There’s no need to say that. Let’s eat. After eating, we’ll get down to business.”
He was too lazy to deal with him and only wanted to finish his business as soon as possible.
Shi Lou smiled awkwardly, but he still had to say what needed to be said.
Although Zhang Heming was only a vice president, the person in charge was his biological brother. In addition, his biological brother was in poor health all year round and only had a young daughter. Sooner or later, the construction materials of the new city would belong to him. Therefore, whether or not this collaboration could be decided depended not on the person in charge, but on the vice president.
Of course, there was another reason why he treated Zhang Heming so well. It was because Zhang Heming’s wife was the granddaughter of a big shot in Insterimond. She seemed to be related to Insterimond royalty by blood. Because of this, even though Shi Luo was one of the higher-ups in the Swanson Group headquarters, he had always been polite in front of Zhang Heming.
After the two of them entered the private room, Shi Luo lowered his face. As he gave the table to Zhang Heming, he smiled apologetically and said, “President Zhang, you might have misunderstood. I recognized the wrong person just now…”
