Great Immortal Doctor

After entering the restaurant, the man looked around and finally, upon seeing Xiao Yi, strode over. It was Qian Bin, whom they had met in the delivery room that morning.

This man was overly calculating, always seeking benefits and avoiding harm, and indifferent to life. Xiao Yi had a very poor impression of him and just coldly watched as he approached.

"Doctor Xiao, what a coincidence. Nice to meet you," Qian Bin said in a gentlemanly manner, extending his hand towards Xiao Yi while wearing a neatly pressed suit.

The corner of Xiao Yi's mouth curled into a faint smile. He adjusted himself into a comfortable sitting position and had no intention of shaking hands with him at all. He said indifferently, "I'm afraid it's not a coincidence. So, tell me, what do you want?"

When Qian Bin heard Xiao Yi's words, he wasn't overly embarrassed. He retracted his hand and gracefully sat down opposite Xiao Yi, saying, "Thanks to Doctor Xiao's excellent medical skills today, a tragedy of one death and two lives was avoided. Doctor Xiao's contribution is undeniable. Naturally, I came here with Ziman to express our gratitude to you."

"Haha, even if there had been one death and two lives, Director Qian would have remained unscathed. So, where does this 'contribution' come from? I really can't accept this gratitude," Xiao Yi sneered.

Qian Bin's face couldn't help but show an ugly expression when he was coldly mocked by Xiao Yi on the spot. However, he still didn't get angry. He secretly took a deep breath and then smiled at Xiao Yi again, saying, "Doctor Xiao is joking. Doctors are naturally dedicated to saving lives and healing the wounded. Who would want a patient to die on their watch?"

"Is that so? However, this morning, when the mother and child were safe, I didn't see the slightest bit of joy on Director Qian's face. Director Qian's ability to hide his emotions is truly something I admire. (From the latest chapter of "The Five Siblings in the Countryside")" Xiao Yi let out a cold snort and said indifferently. He had originally thought that Qian Bin was just worldly, but these words made Xiao Yi feel that he was too hypocritical, and his impression of him worsened even more.

Sure enough, as soon as Xiao Yi finished speaking, even with his thick skin, Qian Bin blushed. He gave a sheepish smile and quickly changed the subject, saying, "Doctor Xiao, you don't look very old. I wonder where you work?"

"Jishitang on Taoshan Street. Just a young staff member in a private clinic," Xiao Yi said indifferently.

"Oh. In that case, it's really a waste of Doctor Xiao's excellent medical skills. If Doctor Xiao is willing, I can recommend you to our hospital director. However," after thinking for a moment, Qian Bin deliberately shook his head and sighed, "But nowadays in our country, the system is too strict. Even with excellent medical skills, without a proper academic degree, it's really difficult to get into a large hospital. But then again, working in a large hospital also has its own difficulties. Everyone there has a high academic degree, and the competition is extremely fierce. Take me for example. I'm a doctoral student from Huaxia Medical University, and it took me seven or eight years to become the person in charge of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology. Although the treatment is good, it's not easy either."

Qian Bin sized up Xiao Yi's inexpensive clothes, deliberately raised his valuable leather shoes, and played with the car key of his BMW 320, his being obvious.

Xiao Yi sneered inwardly but remained calm. Just then, the door of the restaurant opened, and a beautiful figure flashed in. It was Yu Ziman. She was still wearing a simple white shirt and a black skirt. However, the tight-fitting shirt couldn't hide the fullness of her chest. As she walked, it made people worry that the buttons might burst due to the pressure. Her fair face was still framed by those black-rimmed glasses, and her every gesture exuded the intellectual and sexy charm of an OL beauty. She successfully attracted the attention of many men in the restaurant.

Yu Ziman, however, was completely unaware of the attention from others. She glanced in Xiao Yi's direction and immediately broke into a big smile when she saw him. She walked gracefully towards them.

However, as soon as she got closer, she saw Qian Bin and couldn't help but be taken aback. She exclaimed in surprise, "Director Qian, what are you doing here?"

Qian Bin quickly stood up. When he saw Yu Ziman in casual clothes, he was greatly amazed. With a big smile on his face, he said, "Ziman, if I don't accompany you tonight when you're thanking Doctor Xiao, wouldn't it be very impolite for me, the person in charge of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology?"

Yu Ziman was quite stunned when she heard Qian Bin's words. However, she quickly realized that Qian Bin was deliberately ruining her private date with someone else. Appearing without her permission was really annoying. However, since Qian Bin was her immediate superior and they worked in the same department, although Yu Ziman was unhappy in her heart, she didn't show it too obviously. She just gave a sheepish smile, pulled out the chair next to Xiao Yi, and sat down.

"Ziman, how can you sit there? We're the hosts treating Doctor Xiao. You should sit with me. Hehe," Qian Bin said, half-jokingly and half-seriously.

Yu Ziman knew exactly what Qian Bin was up to. She sneered inwardly and said coldly, "No need, Director Qian. Xiao Yi and I have known each other for more than just a day. There's no need for so many formalities."

After saying that, ignoring Qian Bin's embarrassment, she called the waiter, ordered the food, and specifically asked for a bottle of red wine.

"Ziman, we can't be casual about the wine. Well, I'll pay for this meal today. You can order the best red wine. It's rare for Doctor Xiao to come to such a restaurant, so we should order a good bottle of wine," Qian Bin pressed down on the wine list, seemingly enthusiastic but actually belittling.

Just as Yu Ziman was about to speak, she was stopped by Xiao Yi. Xiao Yi didn't even look at the wine list and said with a smile, "Then thank you, Director Qian, for your generosity. I've heard that among red wines, the 1982 Château Lafite Rothschild is the best. In that year, there was plenty of sunshine in France, and the grapes grew very well. The wine produced was especially mellow. Since Director Qian is so generous, why don't we have this 1982 Château Lafite Rothschild?"

"1982 Château Lafite Rothschild?" Qian Bin almost choked on his own saliva. He never expected that Xiao Yi, who was dressed so cheaply, would have the audacity to ask for Lafite right away. Qian Bin came from an ordinary family. The BMW 320 he was so proud of was just a second-hand car he bought for over a hundred thousand yuan, just to show off when going out. A bottle of 1982 Lafite cost at least more than twenty thousand yuan, which made Qian Bin feel extremely frustrated.

Yu Ziman had long known that Qian Bin liked to pretend to be rich. Seeing his pale face now, she couldn't help but secretly laugh in her heart, thinking that Xiao Yi was really ruthless.

Qian Bin couldn't help but notice Yu Ziman's expression. His mind was in a turmoil, and he regretted his earlier arrogance. Now he was in a difficult situation. (From the latest chapter of "Blood Marriage, The Gentle Mysterious Evil Lord")

Xiao Yi let out a cold snort and said indifferently, "If Director Qian is short on money, it's okay. I was just saying it casually."

Yu Ziman didn't say anything either. She played with the water glass and looked at Qian Bin indifferently.

"I came here tonight just for Yu Ziman. Could I really lose face just because of this twenty thousand yuan? Then all my efforts these days would be in vain," Qian Bin quickly weighed the pros and cons in his mind. Finally, he figured out what to do. He took a deep breath and deliberately laughed loudly, "Hehe, I didn't expect Doctor Xiao to be such an expert in wine. You even know about the 1982 Château Lafite Rothschild. Okay, today we'll have this Lafite."

Upon hearing this, the waiter beside them was so happy that the corners of his mouth almost twitched. He could get a commission of more than two thousand yuan for this bottle of Lafite, which was almost equal to a month's salary. He quickly said, "Okay, sir. Please pay the bill first before opening the bottle. It's 38,000 yuan. Thank you."

"Thirty-eight thousand yuan?" Qian Bin's whole body trembled. That was several months' salary. But what else could he say now? He could only take out his salary card and hand it to the waiter with cold fingers, saying, "Just, just swipe the card."

"Okay. Please wait a moment," the waiter was overjoyed. Suppressing his excitement, he took the bank card and left without delay for a second.

"Then thank you, Director Qian. I've long heard that Director Qian is wealthy. Xiao Yi, I'm benefiting from you today," Yu Ziman said with a smile.

Qian Bin was in a bad mood at the moment and couldn't tell whether Yu Ziman's words were praise or sarcasm. However, when he saw Yu Ziman, who was always cold, smiling charmingly at the moment, his heart skipped a beat. He thought that it was really the 38,000-yuan Lafite that had worked its magic. He secretly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and quickly forced a smile, saying, "Ziman, how can you say you're benefiting from someone else? I'm more than happy to buy you a drink."

Xiao Yi rolled his eyes inwardly, thinking that Qian Bin was really an idiot. He couldn't even tell that Yu Ziman was obviously mocking him.

Yu Ziman didn't continue the conversation with Qian Bin. She turned to Xiao Yi and said with a smile, "Xiao Yi, guess where I came from just now?"

"How would I know?" Xiao Yi smiled. In his heart, he thought that what Yu Ziman was going to say with that ambiguous and gossipy expression was probably related to Shu Wan.

Sure enough, Yu Ziman pushed her glasses up and raised her eyebrows, saying, "I just came back from Shu Wan's place."

The corner of Xiao Yi's mouth curled into a smile. He lowered his head and took a sip of lemonade, saying, "So what? Is there anything special?"

Yu Ziman had a mischievous smile on her face and leaned closer to Xiao Yi, saying, "Our Goddess Shu doesn't seem very happy. I wonder who made her angry."

"You said she's a goddess. How could anyone be willing to make her angry?" Xiao Yi said indifferently, but in his heart, there were rare ripples. That little vixen was actually annoyed.

"But then why was Shu Wan both shy and angry when I mentioned you? That kind of expression is really rare on our Goddess Shu's face," Yu Ziman stared closely at Xiao Yi, her eyes full of gossip.

"Hehe, could it be related to me? I didn't know I was that honored," Xiao Yi said with a smile as he looked at the gossipy Yu Ziman.

Qian Bin beside them couldn't understand what the two were talking about at all. He hadn't even heard the name Shu Wan. With his social background, he didn't have the opportunity to hear about the matters related to Villa 12 in Kaixuan Villa. However, seeing Yu Ziman, the famous iceberg beauty in the hospital, looking so lively in front of Xiao Yi now made Qian Bin extremely jealous.

Just then, the waiter brought the priceless Lafite and poured a glass for each of the three of them.

Yu Ziman seemed to ignore it and continued to ask Xiao Yi the reason why the goddess was angry. Xiao Yi just smiled. How could he possibly tell others the secrets between him and Shu Wan?

So, the two of them completely ignored the Lafite that would make Qian Bin feel heartbroken for a long time.
