Chapter 36
"Uhm, in theory, you could say so," said the middle-aged man sternly, although a little awkwardly .
It frustrated him to speak with this kid, who also happened to be a young doctor and the president of a business empire .
"Then can you tell me, who in the world told you that I don't have a girlfriend?" Qin Chu asked the middle-aged man as he crossed his arms and stared at him .
The middle-aged man froze for a second . Then, he immediately took out another set of documents, looked it over, and raised his head to respond, "We did some research, Doctor Qin . Over the past few years, we noticed that you were not overly intimate with any women . "
"Then why didn't you just suspect that I was gay?" Qin Chu continued to ask .
"Because according to our investigations, you haven't had much contact with any men as well," the middle-aged man responded with great sincerity .
Qin Chu was left speechless; it seemed like these people had conducted quite a thorough investigation of him . They had even looked into all of the men and women around him, perhaps also investigated all but his ancestors .
"Take these documents away, I don't need any socialites," said Qin Chu pridefully . He wasn't desperate to the point of going on blind dates yet, was he? Maybe he didn't have a hundred women falling for him over the past few years, but at least eighty women had proclaimed their love for him . These admirers came in various forms, but they all failed to meet his standards .
"Why are you refusing? This is our official's way of showing gratitude . "
"Then let me ask, does your official have the right to kidnap a woman, and force her into marrying me?" Qin Chu asked in all seriousness .
The middle-aged man's lips slightly twitched at his question .
"I… don't think so . " No matter how powerful his boss was, he still could not lawfully kidnap someone and force her into marriage . It was strictly forbidden, as the country valued human rights .
"Then forget it . I am in love with someone, but since you guys can't kidnap her and make her marry me, then there's no need to say anything else . "
"Then perhaps we can help in other ways…?"
"It's fine, I don't need any help, you are free to go," Qin Chu invited his guest to leave .
The middle-aged man sighed slightly and thought, this young kid didn't even tell me what he wanted, how am I supposed to return to my boss without accomplishing my mission?
Therefore, he decided to take matters into his own hand . . .
- Three days later -
C City suddenly released an official statement: three days ago, a certain high-level official visited Jing City to examine the city's economic situation . The official expressed his satisfaction towards one of the leading enterprises, GK Corporation, after an in-depth visit .
After the release of this statement, major media outlets began reprinting and reposting it . . .
At the same time, GK Corporation's stocks grew by 25% by the end of that day .
Qin Yumin was overwhelmed with joy when he saw this news . It seemed like handing GK over to his son was the right choice .
He had no clue how his son managed to come into contact with this certain Jing City official, but his corporation definitely benefited from it .
- In the evening -
It was already 8:30 PM when Qin Chu returned home .
"Chu, have you eaten yet?" Mrs . Qin asked enthusiastically .
"I have," replied Qin Chu as he headed towards the stairs .
"Chu, I saw the news today, and you've clearly proved me wrong . I'm very curious as to how you came into contact with this mysterious official," Qin Yumin asked formally as he laid down the newspaper .
"With my life on the line . " Qin Chu turned around to head upstairs after this brief answer .
It was the truth - if something wrong happened during that surgery, then he would have ended up in jail and been forced to eat rice gruel for the rest of his life .
Many admired, were envious or even hated one's exceptional exterior, but only a few knew how much effort was put in behind one's radiant façade .
"What is with his attitude?" Qin Yumin was angry .
"Yumin, our son is very busy with work lately, please understand . The corporation is now developing at a stable pace, isn't this what you've wanted the most?" Mrs . Qin spoke in favor of her son .
- At First People's Hospital -
During her night shift, Huo Mian just happened to come across Ning Zhiyuan in the hall .
He seemed to have just gotten off work . He was in a blue t-shirt, paired with beige khakis and white sneakers; he looked quite clean and put together .
On that note, she had forgotten that they hadn't seen each other for several days .
"Huo Mian," he stopped her .
She raised her head and looked at Ning Zhiyuan with calm eyes, as if she was looking at any other colleague .
Ning Zhiyuan was somewhat disappointed at Huo Mian's reaction, as he thought that she would have been at least happy to see him .
"Did you need me for something?" Huo Mian asked calmly .
