When Zhu Bocheng saw Chi Shuyan standing at the door of the ward, he smiled and his handsome face brightened like a flower, his eyes glowing as he grinned toothily. He quickly and eagerly welcomed her, "Sister Shuyan, at this time of the day, you must have skipped classes to come here, right?"

Chi Shuyan nodded, raising her round eyes to sweep a glance at Zhu Bocheng. The thick, black mist hovering over him had almost dissipated and only little wisps of light, black mist remained.

Her brows wrinkled and traces of doubt flashed in her eyes. It was reasonable to say that after such a life and death catastrophe, this black, cadaveric qi should have almost dissipated. Why were there still remnants?

"Sister Chi Shuyan, you're too terrific! By the way, did you bring that Peace Talisman? Give me some more. You have no idea how I've been suffering these past few days. Without your Peace Talisman, I didn't even dare to go outside. I'm tired of seeing Zhenbai whenever I look up, even if he's good-looking." Zhu Bocheng's eyes were glowing with excitement and anticipation as he said this.

Chi Shuyan was a bit overwhelmed by Zhu Bocheng's enthusiasm, and her mouth twitched. She felt that if Zhu Bocheng had a tail, there would be no doubt he would have wagged it with glee. She took out some talismans from her school bag and picked out a few.

Zhu Bocheng's eyes immediately burned as bright as a light bulb when he saw her movements. However, seeing that she only picked a few pieces and seemed to be putting the rest back, streaks of urgency flashed in his scorching eyes. Without thinking, he grabbed Chi Shuyan's wrist. "Sister Shuyan, how can this be enough? If it's okay with you, can you sell them all to me."

Chi Shuyan appeared stunned and paused for a moment. Obviously, she didn't expect Zhu Bocheng to grab her wrist. She felt a little uncomfortable being held by such a large man and was about to shake him off…

When Zhu Bocheng's grip was rudely slapped away by Qi Zhenbai, who had unknowingly been standing behind him. He glared at the fidgety Zhu Bocheng with a pair of cold, piercing, slender eyes and his calm tone implied a warning, "What are you yelling at? This is a hospital. Be quiet!"

Zhu Bocheng hissed under his breath and swung his hand. Looking at the back of his reddened hand, he gritted his teeth in hatred. This tyrant! He looked at him accusingly, but upon meeting Qi Zhenbai's glacial eyes, he quickly looked away. His heart was in tears, but he didn't dare to speak out. Can't he show me a bit of respect in front of Sister Shuyan? This guy's too much!

Seeing Zhu Bocheng hopping mad, but suppressed by Qi Zhenbai's eyes and daring not to speak, Chi Shuyan was amused and the discomfort of being affronted just now also vanished.

"Can you give medical advice?" Qi Zhenbai's face was cold, and his dark eyes beneath those thick eyebrows seemingly made a stoic inspection tour over Chi Shuyan's crescent smile.

"No, I can't." Chi Shuyan subconsciously turned sideways, avoiding Qi Zhenbai's intrusive gaze, and glancing at the hospital bed where an old man on a drip was lying unconscious. With a pair of large, round, feline eyes, she looked at Zhu Bocheng and tilted her head, asking in serious confirmation, "You said on the phone that you'd give me 10 million if I wake him up. Is that true?"

Zhu Bocheng spaced out with tics at the corner of his eyes. He said so on the phone, but he was joking. He thought Sister Shuyan got his punchline, but it turned out that she came not for the sake of his face. He feigned to be heart-broken, clasping his heart, "Sister Shuyan, it turned out that our friendship isn't worth these yellow and white worldly possessions."

Chi Shuyan rolled her eyes inwardly. Did she look like an expert who cared nothing about material things? Her round feline eyes glared at Zhu Bocheng. "Talking about money ruins friendships, and besides, we don't have much of a friendship." She narrowed her eyes and was suddenly struck with a thought. She said unhappily, "Are you going to go back on your word? Believe it or not, I'll stick a bad luck talisman on you so that you'll be gagging on water and stepping on dog sh*t when you go out!"

The corners of Qi Zhenbai and Zhu Bocheng's eyes twitched. They exchanged looks and the shock in their eyes was no less than when they first learned of Chi Shuyan's ability. It was the first time they had ever seen someone exposing their mercenary side in such an extraordinary way.

Looking at Chi Shuyan's lovely and boorish profiteer side, Zhu Bocheng wasn't disgusted at all. He hastily said, "Sister Shuyan, rest assured, I would never dare to renege on my promise to you."

"That's more like it." Chi Shuyan snorted.

"Sister Shuyan, you'd better take a look at the patient first." Zhu Bocheng noticed Lin Jingshi, who was sitting by the bed, glancing over, and said hurriedly.

Chi Shuyan nodded. Her professionalism was still there, but when she walked forward for a closer look, she was blocked.

Lin Jingshi stopped Chi Shuyan from getting close to the hospital bed. Her face was unpleasant. She frowned and looked at Zhu Bocheng with some dissatisfaction. "Bocheng, what's wrong with you? My dad needs rest, and the experts outside are still in a meeting to come up with a decision. What are you doing now, bringing insignificant people here?"

Lin Jingshi just watched Zhu Bocheng going out to make a phone call and thought he was going to hire some foreign experts. She didn't expect him to come back with a young girl. Zhu Bocheng was getting more and more unreliable.

"Older Sister Jingshi, Sister Shuyan isn't an insignificant person." Zhu Bocheng hurriedly explained, "Do you still remember the expert who last gave me Zhenbai's prescription? It's Sister Shuyan. Do not worry about her young age. She's quite capable."

When Lin Jingshi heard Zhu Bocheng's explanation, her expression improved a bit, but she had just heard this little girl's "profiteer" remarks and was already somewhat disgusted with her. She only thought that this girl's means were powerful enough that even Zhu Bocheng was fooled.

"It isn't necessary anymore." Lin Jingshi looked tired and politely refused, "Besides, the experts outside are about to finish their meeting, so don't restrain this girl for the trouble."

Zhu Bocheng touched his nose awkwardly. Although he was displeased with Lin Jingshi's attitude, in the end, the one on the hospital bed was her father. It wasn't good to step over the line as an outsider. He looked at Chi Shuyan in embarrassment, afraid that she would be angry.

Fortunately, Chi Shuyan wasn't offended in the slightest. Instead, she smiled gently at him and shrugged. "I guess I can't be of any help." After speaking, she turned to leave.

"Wait." A clear and low voice rang out. Qi Zhenbai, who had been staying out of it and standing tall and upright next to her, spoke, looking indifferent. "Since you're here, don't let your trip be in vain."

Lin Jingshi looked at Qi Zhenbai in astonishment. But when she met his cold slender eyes, she immediately averted her eyes. After a suspicious glance at Chi Shuyan, she opened her mouth, but ultimately said nothing and swallowed her discontent.

She could treat Zhu Bocheng as a junior, but she absolutely didn't dare to treat Qi Zhenbai as one. Although few people in Fuzhou dared to not show respect to their Lin family, her father and Qi Zhenbai's family could be regarded as family. However, the Lin and Qi family were still far apart. What's more, this Ninth Young Master Qi was too majestic. She had always been terrified of him and didn't dare to offend him in the slightest.

Thus, despite her discontent, she didn't dare to say a word to drive someone away.
