Ruisheng Hospital, payment counter

"The total is 5,340. QR code or cash?"

The receptionist spoke indifferently to Lin Kenning.

When Lin Kenning heard the amount, her face visibly paled. She said in shock, "How could it be this much?!"

Lin Kenning was about to question her when Mu Changsheng raised a hand to stop her. Smiling, he asked the receptionist, "Are you sure it's this much?"

The receptionist frowned, her tone cold. "What do you mean by that?"

"Heh, just asking."

A chill flashed through Mu Changsheng's eyes. He then scanned the code and paid.

"Kenning, let's go."

Mu Changsheng took Lin Kenning's hand and led her outside.

Lin Kenning looked at Mu Changsheng in confusion. "How could it cost so much again?"

"We shouldn't have needed to pay this much at all..."

Mu Changsheng merely smiled unconcernedly. "Kenning, the more they charge us, the more advantageous it is for us."

"I'd rather they charge us even more."

"The more, the better."

Lin Kenning could not understand what Mu Changsheng meant. She stood there blankly. "Huh?"

"What do you mean?"

"Let's go. We'll head to Tannan City First People's Hospital first."

Mu Changsheng shook his head with a smile and did not explain further.

Ruisheng Hospital, Du Mingde's office

A beautiful woman sat on Du Mingde's lap. Mu Changsheng was no stranger to her; she was the woman at the payment counter.

Du Mingde had an arm around the woman's waist, his gaze icy. "Damn it, the duck that was already in my mouth flew away."

"Oh, Director Du, aren't I still here?"

The woman spoke with a hint of jealousy.

Then she asked worriedly, "Director... what if people find out about the fake charges we made up...?"

Du Mingde glanced at the woman in his arms. "What do you know? In this hospital, aside from the director, my father is king. What can some poor bitch possibly do?"

"If that brat hadn't shown up today, I would've gotten Lin Kenning already."

The woman's eyes shifted. She leaned into Du Mingde's arms and said coquettishly, "Director, what about that... head nurse position...?"

Du Mingde chuckled and patted her slender waist. "Don't worry... the head nurse position will be yours."

"Thank you, Director."

Tannan City First People's Hospital

"Miss Lin, Mr. Mu, where did you have the child treated before?"

The bespectacled doctor frowned as he looked at Mu Changsheng and Lin Kenning.

Lin Kenning answered honestly, "Ruisheng Hospital."

"Doctor Wang, is my younger brother's illness early-stage stomach cancer...?"

Lin Kenning asked anxiously.

"Stomach cancer?"

Doctor Wang froze. "What early-stage stomach cancer? The child is so young. How could he develop stomach cancer so quickly?"

"You just used the wrong medication, which worsened his condition and caused several polyps to grow in his stomach. Once they're removed, he'll be fine."

"Fortunately, you transferred him in time. Otherwise... the consequences might have been even more serious."

Doctor Wang's words left Lin Kenning rooted to the spot.

A slight smile appeared on Mu Changsheng's lips. It was more or less what he had expected. "Thank you, Doctor Wang."

"All right, the child's surgery can't be delayed. Go pay the fees first. We'll arrange the surgery for him today."

Doctor Wang shook his head.

"Thank you, Doctor Wang..."

Mu Changsheng nodded.

"How could this happen...?"

Holding the bill and looking at the charges, Lin Kenning could not help feeling wronged.

It clearly could have been resolved for only a few thousand, yet she had spent so much?!

Lin Kenning, you really are stupid.

"Changsheng, am I very stupid? I actually took Keyang to a private hospital. Not only was his illness not cured... I even made Keyang suffer..."

Lin Kenning sat there, filled with self-blame.

Mu Changsheng gave a bitter smile. "It's not your fault either. You're only a college student and haven't entered society yet. Du Mingde was the one behind all this."

"Doctor Du...?"

Mu Changsheng nodded and told Lin Kenning about Du Mingde's vile intentions.

After hearing it, Lin Kenning immediately felt a wave of lingering fear.

If not for Mu Changsheng, she would have walked right into a trap.

Lin Kenning kept clutching her clothes, her palms already slick with sweat. "Thank you... if it weren't for you... I might already have... been deceived."

"I'll definitely pay back the money you lent me."

Lin Kenning looked at Mu Changsheng solemnly.

Mu Changsheng rubbed Lin Kenning's head. "No need to rush. I'm not in urgent need of money right now. You just need to be more careful from now on."

"You silly girl, you actually dared to go to a private hospital."

Lin Kenning lowered her head shyly. "I... understand."

After leaving the People's Hospital, Mu Changsheng returned to the villa and drove his McLaren toward a restaurant.

Yuyang Restaurant

Mu Changsheng parked the McLaren at the entrance, took out his phone, and made a call. "Lawyer Qin, I'm here."

"Sir, are you driving a white McLaren?"

A hesitant female voice came from the other end of the call.

Mu Changsheng looked around. "That's right, it's me."

"Mr. Mu, I'm here."

A soft call came from behind him. Mu Changsheng slowly turned around and saw a tall, beautiful woman carrying a black briefcase as she walked toward him.

Her skin was fair.

Her high nose gave her facial features a more defined appearance.

Her long, glossy black hair cascaded over her shoulders like a waterfall.

Her fitted business suit perfectly accentuated her graceful figure.

Mu Changsheng was somewhat surprised. She was a beauty too?

Name: Qin Na Appearance: 91 Age: 26 Occupation: Lawyer Hobby: Sophistry Number of relationships: 1

Mu Changsheng frowned at the number of relationships. "System, what does the number of relationships mean?"

That was rather ambiguous.

"Host, it means she has been in one relationship, but she's still a virgin."

"Is that clear now?"
