I'm such a lovesick person.

Chapter 487 Ignore it
inside the house.

Zhao Ling's clamor had no effect, because Wu Chongquan ignored her completely and explicitly refused, citing his inability to obtain the medicine.

"If my brother really passes away, all your current businesses will be affected!"

In the end, Zhao Ling left behind a threatening remark and led the handsome man out, slamming the door behind them.

Wu Chong's expression was somber, and he remained silent.

Wei Lin stared blankly at her and the seemingly powerful man, then felt a deep respect for Wu Zhong's choice.

Zhao Ling's brother is definitely a person of high status, and his help to Wu Zhong's business will certainly be greater than Wei Lin had previously anticipated.

The gift of a fruit of life will allow Zhao Ling's brother to remember Wu Zhong's kindness for a lifetime.

But Wu Zhong actually chose to give it to Dong Mu.

"Several years ago, she and I were a couple. Before we got together, she knew that I had other women in my life, and she was very confident that she would be my only one."

"She comes from a good family, and she is young and beautiful enough that she feels she is incomparable."

"Unfortunately, I couldn't do as she wished. I didn't get rid of all the women around me because of Zhao Ling's appearance."

“Wei Lin, as you know, I was the holder of the Love Value System back then.”

“That is my driving force, the cornerstone of my pursuit of higher wealth and status. Of course I will not give up the continuous growth of my affection for her.”

"Then we broke up. Although we didn't become enemies, our relationship wasn't very harmonious either."

“I feel guilty towards her, so I can tolerate her nagging and allow her to yell and scream in my presence.”

Wu Chong explained with a wry smile.

Wei Lin touched his nose and suddenly wondered if Zhuang Qing and Lin Nanxi would find out that he had other women around him all along, and whether they would treat him the same way Zhao Ling did.
Wu Zhong sighed, "Relationships are really hard to handle."

……

The corridor outside the house.

"Miss Zhao!"

Dong Mu, who had been waiting, immediately bowed respectfully when he saw Zhao Ling come out.

"Uncle Dong, I heard you're also having health problems?"

Zhao Ling pursed her lips and smiled, a gloating expression on her face, and said, "Qin Hanya is sick, and now you're sick too. You're all sick."

"I am in good health, and I am also grateful to Ah Chong for giving me a miracle drug back then, which has kept me healthy to this day."

She was referring, of course, to the Enhancement Fruit.

Dong Mu kept his head down and remained silent.

"You guys are so boring."

Zhao Ling snorted and looked up as she walked away.

Dong Mu chuckled and watched her walk away until she was far enough away before heading towards the hall where Wu Chong and Wei Lin were talking.

Qingfeng leaned against a stone pillar carved with strange beasts, coldly staring at Zhao Ling and that guy who seemed utterly vulnerable to him.

"Miss Qin..."

Qingfeng muttered to himself, his eyes like those of a lurking viper.

……

"Uncle Dong, please come in."

Wu Zhong, who was in the center of the hall, called out to Dong Mu as soon as he saw him approaching.

Dong Mu immediately walked in and stood in front of Wei Lin and Wu Zhong, asking in surprise, "What brings Miss Zhao here?"

"Isn't it all because of her brother?"

While Wu Zhong was speaking, he gestured to Qing Feng from a distance. Qing Feng immediately retreated to the back of the corridor to observe whether Zhao Ling and the other person had really gone far away.

When he saw Qingfeng nodding in the distance, Wu Chong said, "Uncle Dong, Wei Lin has a medicine that might be able to help you treat your illness." Dong Mu's thin body suddenly trembled, his hands involuntarily clenched, and he looked at Wu Chong with disbelief.

Like Zhao Ling, he also knew that Wu Chong possessed extraordinary abilities.

Otherwise, how could Qin Hanya, who was suffering from a terminal illness, have been brought back to life?
He had witnessed similar situations more than once during the many years he had followed Wu Chong.

Zhao Ling's older brother, Zhao Jun, is also suffering from cancer in the prime of his life, and like him, he may not have much time left.

But who is Zhao Jun?
During the most brilliant and glorious stage of Wu Chong's life, Zhao Jun played an extremely important role, providing tremendous help to Wu Chong's business expansion.

After Wu Chong obtained this kind of miraculous medicine again, he did not use it on Zhao Jun, but instead planned to save him to live.
Dong Mu's gratitude was beyond words.

“I’m too old, I don’t think I have this honor or need.”

The old butler's eyes welled up with tears, and he began to think wholeheartedly of Wu Zhong again, smiling as he said, "Sir, why don't you save this medicine for Zhao Jun? He'll be more useful to you!"

Wu Chong shook his head and said in an unyielding tone, "No, I got this medicine for you."

"Wei Lin!"

He suddenly let out a soft shout.

Having already received instructions, Wei Lin immediately stepped forward and handed Dong Mu the medicine that Wu Chong had given him, along with a glass of water.

"Uncle Dong, it won't make you immortal, but it will allow you to live many more years."

"Mr. Wu specially found this for you, so please don't be shy!"

Wei Lin almost forcibly shoved the useless pill into Dong Mu's mouth, and then casually gave him the second Fruit of Life at the same time.

He had now exhausted both of his most precious fruits, and both of them were used on people around Wu Zhong.

"Zhao Ling, Zhao Jun, the Zhao family."

Wei Lin was secretly surprised.

Having possessed the Love Value System for many years, Wu Zhong had long since become a powerful figure who could control everything. He never expected that even with his high status, there would still be a woman like Zhao Ling who could speak so arrogantly to him.

This also shows that even with the Love Value system, one is not omnipotent in this hierarchical world.

Even someone as strong as Wu Chong has his own troubles and worries, and cannot do everything as he pleases.

"Cough cough!"

Dong Mu, who had been forced to drink several mouthfuls of water, coughed repeatedly, but his previously cloudy eyes gradually became bright and alert.

Dong Mu keenly sensed that a strange warm current was surrounding the area that caused him pain and discomfort.

"Sir, I... I can feel it!"

Dong Mu screamed in a low voice.

Wu Chong smiled calmly and pointed at Wei Lin to explain, "I went to great lengths to find him because I know that he has a miraculous medicine left by his ancestors."

Dong Mu excitedly grasped Wei Lin's hand, repeatedly expressing his gratitude: "President Wei, I owe my life to you!"

He knew perfectly well that what Wu Zhong said was not true, after all, even before he fell ill, Wu Zhong had already instructed him to find people with strict requirements.

"Alright, from now on, you should get closer to Wei Lin and treat him like one of our own."

Wu Zhong gave earnest instructions.

"I know that from now on, President Wei will not only be my benefactor, but also the most important person to us!"

Dong Mu thanked him profusely and left with a flushed face.

Wu Chong smiled with satisfaction and said, "Xiao Ya's life was also saved by Wei Lin!"

Upon hearing this, Dong Mu's gratitude deepened even further.
