Time flew by. In the blink of an eye, Qin Xueqing had been streaming for three hours, and the event came to an end.
"Congratulations. You took first place."
Seeing Qin Xueqing end her stream, Lin Chen smiled and congratulated her.
However, before he could say anything else, Qin Xueqing threw her arms around him.
"Thank you, Lin Chen."
Seeing this, the property staff naturally smiled and quietly withdrew.
Only the female staff member's expression was somewhat complicated—or perhaps jealous.
Feeling the soft skin and full curves in his arms, Lin Chen's heart stirred.
This was the Campus Belle—a peerless beauty with a looks score above 98, the girl he had once secretly admired. And now, she had actually thrown herself into his arms.
If he had not been sure this was real, Lin Chen would have thought he was dreaming.
He had to admit, this felt incredible.
System, I fucking love you!
"Um..."
Perhaps realizing that it was somewhat inappropriate, Qin Xueqing released him.
Her cheeks were especially flushed, like a rosebud about to bloom, making people want to give them a pinch.
"Lin Chen, don't misunderstand. I'm not that kind of person. Just now, I..."
Qin Xueqing hurriedly explained herself. She did not want Lin Chen to misunderstand her.
At the same time, her little heart pounded wildly in her chest.
Even she had been startled by what she had just done.
In all her life, she had never been this intimate with a boy, much less taken the initiative to hug one.
"I know. I understand."
Lin Chen smiled. The two chatted for a while longer before he drove Qin Xueqing to the hospital.
"Lin Chen, this car of yours must be really expensive, right?"
When Qin Xueqing saw the car Lin Chen was driving, she was completely stunned. Although she did not know its model or price, judging by its appearance, engine roar, and interior, it definitely was not cheap.
Lin Chen smiled as he drove. "Not expensive. Only three hundred million."
To him now, it really was not expensive. With the system, he could have as much of anything as he wanted.
"Three hundred million!"
However, Qin Xueqing understood those words differently.
She sucked in a cold breath, utterly shocked.
A car worth three hundred million—perhaps even the Zhonghai Richest Man's Son would not dare buy one.
But then again, someone who could afford a three-billion luxury mansion buying a three-hundred-million luxury car was nothing much.
Even so, Qin Xueqing grew increasingly curious about Lin Chen's family background.
Different wealthy people had different values. Some liked to flaunt their net worth, while others preferred to stay hidden and did not want anyone to know just how rich they were.
Clearly, Qin Xueqing considered Lin Chen's family to be the latter kind of hidden wealthy family. Otherwise, he would not have been so low-key back in college.
As she was lost in thought, the car arrived at the entrance of Zhonghai First Hospital.
Zhonghai First Hospital truly was the largest and best hospital in Zhonghai. Whether it was the doctors' skills or the hospital equipment, both were unmatched in the city.
Its only flaw was the high cost. Even with medical insurance reimbursement, it was still extremely expensive.
Perhaps that was the downside of a private hospital.
Vroom—
The moment the car appeared at the hospital, it immediately drew countless onlookers. Some took pictures while others discussed it.
"Holy shit, that's the globally limited Bugatti Veyron! It costs a full three hundred million!"
"How much? Three hundred million?! Damn, that's way too extravagant!"
"Yeah. Three hundred million would let an ordinary person rule Zhonghai, but a Super Tycoon just uses it to buy a toy. That's seriously insane."
The Bugatti Veyron had excellent soundproofing, so they could not hear the people outside. Still, judging from the crowd gathering around them, Lin Chen could more or less guess what was going on without listening.
"You go in first. I'll buy some fruit and flowers before going in. It wouldn't be proper to visit your aunt empty-handed."
"Okay."
Then the two got out of the car separately and headed in different directions.
"Look, a Goddess! A Goddess just got out of that luxury car! She's so beautiful, not inferior to those young actresses at all."
"Look at you, acting like a country bumpkin. Isn't it perfectly normal for a luxury car to come with a Goddess?"
"Exactly. If you had money, you could drive luxury cars and take beautiful women out every day too."
"Hey, look at that Super Tycoon. Why doesn't he look like what I imagined? He's really handsome!"
"He really is. Ordinary rich guys, even top-tier ones, are usually ugly. But this guy is not only rich—his looks are terrifyingly good too. I'm so jealous."
The passersby exclaimed in amazement, shifting their attention from Qin Xueqing to Lin Chen. Only after he had walked too far away to be seen did they finally disperse.
Meanwhile, Lin Chen stood outside a fruit shop without going in.
He found a relatively secluded spot and opened the Silver Treasure Chest in the system inventory.
The reason he did this was naturally because he did not want people to think he was crazy if he got too excited after opening something valuable.
"I wonder what this Silver Treasure Chest will give me."
With that thought, Lin Chen tapped the open button.
The next second, the Silver Treasure Chest burst with golden light.
Ding! Congratulations, Host. You have obtained 90% of the shares in Zhonghai First Hospital. Ding! Congratulations, Host. You have obtained 100 million in cash.
As the notifications sounded, Lin Chen was completely dumbfounded.
He had never expected the Silver Treasure Chest to produce two treasures, and each one was exceptionally good.
Not to mention the hundred million in cash—just the 90% stake in Zhonghai First Hospital alone made Lin Chen excited enough to jump.
Zhonghai First Hospital was a heavy-asset project with a total investment exceeding twenty billion.
With a 90% stake, did that not mean Lin Chen had instantly acquired eighteen billion in fixed assets?
Moreover, hospitals differed from ordinary housing investments. Hospitals could generate profits constantly, unlike real estate, which only offered one-time investment returns.
"This is awesome! So damn awesome! System, you're incredible!"
Lin Chen was overjoyed.
Just then, his phone rang again.
Beep, beep, beep—
It was an unfamiliar number, but Lin Chen knew it had to be related to the hospital.
"Hello, may I ask if this is Mr. Lin Chen?"
"Yes, that's me."
"Hello, Mr. Lin. I'm Feng Yong, a shareholder of Zhonghai First Hospital. Since you have acquired 90% of the hospital's shares and are our new shareholder, I wanted to ask when you might be available to come inspect the hospital."
"Sure. I'm heading to the inpatient department shortly anyway. We can meet then."
"Alright, Mr. Lin."
With that, Lin Chen hung up.
This was his first time inspecting a workplace, and he had no experience with it. The reason he agreed was naturally because of Qin Xueqing's mother.
They said seeing a doctor at a hospital required connections, while being admitted required even stronger connections.
Now that Qin Xueqing's mother was hospitalized, and Lin Chen was the hospital's major shareholder, he would naturally help if he could.
After buying fruit and flowers, Lin Chen headed straight for Ward 606 in the inpatient department.
