Rebirth from the Ashes

Shen Xi told Mr. and Mrs. Ning to monitor their son’s condition and told them they could contact Pei Xu to get to her if anything happens.

“Okay.” Mr. Ning nodded and gave her a bank card. “Dr. Shen, this is a small token of our appreciation. Please accept it.”

Pei Xu had been dealing with Shen Xi all this while, so Mr. Ning did not know how much he should pay her.

However, this money was not enough to express their gratitude. Mr. Ning thought, ‘Dr. Shen is such a worldly doctor and certainly isn’t short of this money…’

Pei Xu wanted to pay Shen Xi himself, but seeing this situation in front of him, he did not stop Mr. Ning either.

“I’m just doing my job.” Shen Xi accepted the money and looked at the person in front of him. “Goodbye then.”

Favor and money were separate things. If Shen Xi did not accept this money, Mr. and Mrs. Ning would feel more helpless.

“Dr. Shen,” Mr. Ning called out to her again. He seemed to be in a pickle and finally looked at her and asked, “Director Tang is Nian’s attending doctor in this hospital. He wants to see you and would like to know if it’s convenient for you?”

He was embarrassed to ask this, but he was good friends with Director Tang, who was very eager to see this miracle doctor, so he had to ask.

“This isn’t necessary.” Shen Xi still did not want her identity to be exposed yet, so it was better to remain a mystery for now.

Otherwise, she might become another legend and the subject of discussion again.

“Then I’ll instruct them to keep this a secret and won’t leak your information.” Mr. Ning understood what he should do for Dr. Shen.

Shen Xi knew Mr. Ning was a quick-witted fellow. She smiled and said, “It’s not necessary to keep all of this secret, but I’d appreciate it if you can keep my name out of it.”

Shen Xi did not want secrecy but mystery. The effect she wanted to achieve was for all the affluent families in the Capital to know that there was such a miracle doctor yet they would not know who she was.

“Okay, got it.” Mr. Ning understood what Shen Xi meant. It seemed that Dr. Shen did not intend to keep this a secret and probably wanted to make a name for himself in the elite circle of China.

With Dr. Shen’s medical skills, it was indeed possible for affluent families in China to treat him respectfully.

The Ning family was the first to owe Dr. Shen a favor. In this world, good doctors, especially miracle doctors like Dr. Shen, were very rare.

Shen Xi nodded slightly at him before turning to leave.

Mr. Ning stood at the entrance of the ward and watched as Shen Xi left. He could not help but lament. ‘He’s a hero among the youth! This Dr. Shen is so calm and indifferent, but he’s still a compassionate doctor. He’ll surely make it big in the future!’

Pei Xu drove Shen Xi back.

Shen Xi took out her phone to check the bank card balance and counted the zeroes behind the 1. It was no less than 10 million yuan.

Pei Xu looked at Shen Xi through the rearview mirror. Even though he had seen her disguise countless times, he was still amazed by it and could not get used to her looking like a man. He asked, “Xixi, are you planning to be a big shot in the medical world next?”

Being a doctor was a great profession, especially a miracle doctor that was extremely hard to find. There would be people who would be willing to spend a huge sum just to see her.

“I don’t know yet. I just want to focus on the college chatbox exams.” Shen Xi still needed to get into medical school. After all, she must also have a proper career.

Pei Xu had no comment. After some thought, he said, “Fu Qingxuan keeps asking me every day who this medicine is for and how effective it is. He even said he bought his flight ticket to come over.”

Fu Qingxuan had been very concerned about the medicine, but they did not reveal anything. He only knew of its existence but not the details.

Shen Xi’s brows knitted slightly and asked, “When?”

Pei Xu replied, “He said there’s a very important medical forum in the afternoon that he must attend, so I guess he’s taking the evening flight.”

Shen Xi let out a faint “mm”, took out her phone, scrolled for a long time, and finally found Fu Qingli’s number on her blacklist. She unblocked his number and sent him a text message.

[Fu Qingxuan is coming to see me.]

‘Didn’t he say that he doesn’t want me to provoke his family? Then he should take care of them himself!’

After sending this informative text message, Shen Xi thought about it and sent another one.

[Your aunt is pestering me to be a contracted artist for your entertainment company. You should mind your family.]

Fu Qingli had just finished an important meeting when he received both messages. He looked at the attendees and said in a deep voice, “Get out.”

The top executives went out one by one. The last one who left closed the door behind him.

Fu Qingli knew who sent the messages. After a while, his long, slender fingers typed only two words. [Got it.]

He clicked send.

Ten seconds passed, but the chat box showed: [Message cannot be delivered.]

Fu Qingli’s face turned glum as he looked at the red alert in the chat box. For a while, he felt a raging fire in his chest like a volcano eruption.

‘Damn it! She blocked me?!’

At that moment, Xu Xu knocked on the door twice but no one answered, so he pushed the door open and was stunned in place.

Xu Xu saw the ever cold and ruthless man that was unfazed by anything kicking the desk in frustration.

This kick was full of force, but the desk did not budge. Instead, the man stubbed his toes. That handsome face was momentarily distorted with pain, but he immediately returned to his cold expression.

“Sir,” Xu Xu said as he respectfully stood on one side while looking at his boss with trepidation. “The car is waiting. We should leave.”

‘What happened to have him lose his usual calm and rational mind that he’d actually kick such a solid desk?’

The desk was fine but his feet might not be…

“Change the business trip to 10:00 pm.” Fu Qingli’s voice was cold and sullen as he walked towards the door. Every step was incredibly painful.

“Yes, sir.” After Xu Xu answered, he carefully glanced at his boss and did not see any abnormalities, so he put his heart at ease.

‘Boss kicked the desk so hard and didn’t even stub his toe? I even felt the pain by just looking at it. He’s really lucky that he’s okay.”

Just as Xu Xu thought this, Fu Qingli said, “Check when Fu Qingxuan’s flight out of the country.” He added in a cold voice, “Bring a medical kit to my office.”

When Xu Xu heard the words “medical kit”, he almost fainted and came up with a myriad of speculations in his heart. However, he dared not show the slightest disrespect and answered, “Yes, sir.”

‘Who can anger the boss to such an extent and make him so sulky?!’
