Chapter 16: The Cold-Faced Doctor x The Wealthy and Powerful CEO 16

The next morning.

Lu Yan, carrying a breakfast he had bought on the way, went to his apartment to deliver food to Hyman.

As he opened the door, Hyman, who was sitting in the living room, heard the sound and looked over. Their eyes met, but quickly parted.

Lu Yan frowned disapprovingly, placing the breakfast he had brought on the coffee table in the living room.

“I brought you some food.”

Hyman looked at the steaming breakfast on the coffee table and asked calmly, “What’s for lunch?”

He opened the paper bag containing the breakfast and leisurely bit into a fragrant and delicious steamed bun.

Lu Yan said coldly, “Order takeout yourself, I don’t have time to deliver food to you every meal.”

He had only come this morning to see if Hyman had died in his apartment, he wasn’t actually being kind by delivering food.

Hyman twitched his lips, “I don’t have any money…”

He was a foreigner who had escaped, where would he get Chinese yuan?

Lu Yan’s gaze became even more disdainful.

What a nuisance! He was already staying in his house, now he wanted to eat and drink on him.

He thought for a moment and said, “Add me on WeChat, send me a message when you want to eat.”

He had already saved him, he couldn’t let the man starve. Besides, Hyman still owed him a consultation fee! Two billion wasn’t a small amount!

Hyman took out his phone, silently scanned the code to add WeChat, then paused when filling in the note.

“I haven’t asked yet, what’s your name?”

Lu Yan said coldly, “Lu Yan.”

Two words, concise and clear, without a single extra word of explanation.

Hyman filled in the note and began to eat, without looking at the person next to him.

Lu Yan took two medicine bottles out of his pocket and handed them to Hyman, who was focused on eating. “Three times a day, one pill each time for both of these.”

Hyman widened his eyes as he looked at the blank medicine bottles, he reached out and took them, “Is this medicine reliable?” Don’t tell me it’s some unknown stuff.

Lu Yan snorted, “You don’t know good medicine!”

“This is a special drug for treating gunshot wounds, it’s good for your wound recovery.”

“Thanks.” Hyman accepted it without hesitation.

Lu Yan left after delivering the medicine, not staying for a single minute.

Hyman, holding a steamed bun in his mouth, watched Lu Yan leave. His chiseled features were sharp and deep, and his brows held a sense of superiority.

“Tsk, what a strange person.”

“He’s good at medicine, and he’s good-looking, but he’s too cold and unsympathetic.”

He lowered his eyes, looking at the medicine bottles on the coffee table, ordinary yet mysterious.

“Special drug? I’ll try it.” He took the medicine according to Lu Yan’s instructions, one pill from each bottle, and slowly waited for the effect to kick in.

The day passed quickly.

Hyman actually found that his wound no longer ached, and when he changed his dressing, he noticed that the wound on his chest, which had been bloody and mangled, was indeed healing rapidly.

He stared at the wound in disbelief, “That guy really wasn’t lying to me.”

He wondered if there was more of this special drug. If there was, he could get more and bring it back to his country. He could use it for future firefights.

He thought he should find a chance to see Lu Yan again. Maybe Lu Yan could give him more surprises.

But Lu Yan was reluctant to see him. He didn’t show up for two days, no matter how much Hyman begged on WeChat, he couldn’t get him to answer.

【Dr. Lu, are you there?】

【I have something I want to ask you, please reply.】

【That medicine is very effective, do you have more?】

【Lu Yan, are you free tonight?】

Lu Yan pretended not to see it, he ignored it completely. His life was peaceful as usual, until he saw Hyman at the entrance of Jiangdu City Central Hospital when he got off work on the third day.

He didn’t want to make a fuss, so he pretended not to see him and walked to the other side.

It was already the third day! Hyman should leave! Why was he still stubbornly refusing to leave, and he even had the audacity to come to his workplace!

Hyman licked his lips when he saw this, he quickly chased after him, finally blocking Lu Yan at the street corner near the hospital. He asked with a puzzled expression, “What are you hiding from? I just want to ask you something.”

Lu Yan said expressionlessly, “What is it?”

Hyman asked without hesitation, “Where did you get the special medicine you gave me?”

“Your country shouldn’t have any wound healing drugs that work that fast. Did you develop it, or did your teacher or friend develop it?”

Lu Yan crossed his arms, “I made it myself, do you have any questions?”

Hyman raised an eyebrow slightly, “No problem, I just want to talk to you about a partnership.”

What a rare talent! He had to seize the opportunity and get something out of him.

Lu Yan curled his lips, “Talk about a partnership? How about we discuss it in detail back at the apartment?”

Hey, another business partner coming to my door! He could take the opportunity to extort another large sum of money from Hyman, as a way of earning research funds for himself.

He had just taken on a new project yesterday and hadn’t had time to get funding yet! With Hyman, he wouldn’t have to waste any more words.

Hyman nodded slightly, “Alright.”

He got back into Lu Yan’s car and headed towards the apartment in the city center, looking at Lu Yan with interest, wanting to continue to exploit his value.

Little did he know that Lu Yan’s real husband was on his way to the ‘battlefield’ apartment.

On the bustling avenue, cars flowed like a tide.

Shen Du’s face was dark as he stared at the tablet in his hand. The stationary red dot on the screen made him furious.

It was that apartment from three days ago!

He remembered that Lu Yan had gone to that apartment very late three nights ago, and now he was going there again. What was there?

“Wife, you better not be doing anything you shouldn’t be doing.” Like keeping a lover!

Shen Du stared intently at the tablet, his whole body exuding an intimidating aura of power.

After Fu Ye tried to kidnap Lu Yan, he had installed a tracker in the necklace Lu Yan wore every day, just in case.

But he didn’t expect his wife, who was always running between the hospital and home, to repeatedly go to other places, especially at night after work.

It was hard for him not to suspect something.

Reason told him that his wife wasn’t that kind of person, but jealousy had made him lose his reason.

No matter what, he had to go there today and see what secrets were hidden in that apartment.

“Wife, I hope you’re okay. If I find out you’ve fallen for someone else…”

“I’ll lock you up at home and never let you see that bitch again!”

Call him a pervert or a madman, he wouldn’t let them be together.

He was Lu Yan’s legitimate and legal partner, everyone else was a low-life, don’t even think about touching his wife’s finger.

“Wife, don’t disappoint me.”

The man, who was practically going crazy with worry, pretended to be calm and composed, but a closer look at his expression revealed that he wasn’t at ease at all.

Jealousy, regret, worry, fear… all sorts of complex emotions surged through his heart, making the expression on Shen Du’s face terrifying.
