The Physician Tycoon

Lucy complimented, "Mr. Ye, I've long admired your reputation."

"Miss Lucy, what can I do for you?"

"I've heard that Mr. Ye's health-promoting watermelons are very famous, so I came here specifically to try one. It really does taste great," Lucy said, pointing to the watermelon on the coffee table.

"Mr. Ye, this is your watermelon. Won't you have a slice?"

Ye Kai glanced at the watermelon, then casually picked up a piece and started eating.

Lucy and Mary also took a piece and started eating, praising it as they ate.

"It's really good, the taste is excellent."

"I've heard that eating this can improve your complexion and skin health. Is that true?"

Ye Kai nodded, "Eating one might not have an effect, but eating several will definitely have an effect."

Lucy joked, "No wonder Mary's getting prettier and prettier, it's from eating this kind of watermelon!"

"Mary was already beautiful, and she'll become even more beautiful after eating my watermelon."

Lucy asked with interest, "I've also heard that this can enhance a man's virility and improve his sexual performance. Is that true?"

"Of course it's true. If Miss Lucy has a boyfriend, she might as well give it a try."

Lucy shrugged. "Unfortunately, I don't have a boyfriend."

"You're so pretty, why don't you have a boyfriend?"

"That's because I haven't met someone as outstanding as Mr. Ye."

Lucy skillfully steered the conversation back to business.

You flatter me too much.

"No, I'm telling the truth, Mr. Ye. I'm here on behalf of Eliza Corporation to invite you to join us. What do you say?"

"What could I do there?"

"Our company has a research institute, and Mr. Ye can go there to do research work."

"Miss Lucy may have made a mistake. I'm studying medicine, not agriculture."

"That's right. Although you didn't study agriculture, the watermelon you developed has high nutritional value. Based on that alone, you are fully capable of handling this task."

"What kind of treatment will I receive?"

"You will be hired as a senior researcher at the Agricultural Research Institute of the Great Eagle Empire, with an annual salary of one million Eagle pounds."

"Researcher? That's the job?"

"You're a senior researcher, equivalent to a vice dean. If Mr. Ye is still not satisfied, I can speak to the leadership and have you promoted to vice dean."

Ye Kai chuckled, "My roots are here. I really don't want to leave my homeland and run off to the United States."

"Your Great Xia has an old saying: 'People live when they move, trees die when they move.' There is also a saying: 'People strive to go higher, water flows to lower places.'"

Go wherever there's potential, Mr. Ye. You can bring your girlfriend along, that way you won't be lonely anywhere.

Lucy clearly has a deep understanding of Bactrian culture; she can speak fluently and eloquently about it.

Ye Kai teased Lucy, "Housing prices are really high where you live. I can't afford a house there, so how am I going to bring my girlfriend over?"

Lucy waved her hand. "Don't worry about that. Our research institute will provide you with a villa and award you a Royal Knight's Medal. You'll then be a full citizen of the Great Eagle Empire!"

Lucy spared no expense to complete her mission.

Ye Kai feigned surprise, "Wow, the conditions are so good! As the saying goes, there's no such thing as a free lunch. What do I need to do?"

"Mr. Ye, you need to sign an agreement that the ownership of your technology patents will belong to our Royal Institution."

Ye Kai understood; Lucy wanted to buy all his technology.

Offering a million-dollar annual salary and a medal to buy Ye Kai's technology is too cheap.

Ye Kai shook his head. "No, my skills are not for sale. I won't sell them to anyone."

"Mr. Ye, please think it over again. Don't rush into a decision. Mary, please keep Mr. Ye company."

Lucy winked at Mary and walked out of the room.

Mary came to Ye Kai's side and nestled against him like a little bird.

"Darling, Lucy's offer is extremely generous. This is the first time our Royal Research Institute has offered such a generous deal."

Think it over carefully. If you go to the UK, I can be with you every day.

"I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you, Mary, but I would never sell my skills."

"Don't rush into a decision, think about it again."

Mary kissed Ye Kai, hoping to move him with her tenderness and change his mind.

Ye Kai was clearly not in the mood for this.

"Mary, let's skip it today. I'm not in a good mood. You should get some rest too."

As Ye Kai was about to leave, Mary hugged his waist.

"Ye Kai, don't go! It will be very dangerous if you leave!"

"I'm not afraid of anything."

"You have no idea what kind of person Lucy is, she's terrifying!"

"Isn't she your company's legal counsel?"

Mary glanced at the door; Lucy had closed it as she left.

Mary was still worried, so she ran to the back of the door and inserted the safety lock.

Then they searched everywhere in the room, under the lamp and under the table.

Ye Kai asked curiously, "Mary, what are you doing? Looking for a bugging device?"

"Yes, that's right."

"No need for all that trouble, just watch me."

Ye Kai activated his third eye, scanned the area, and then went to the bedroom. He found a bugging device behind the wall lamp and placed it on the table.

"Here you go, Mary."

Mary gasped, "How did you find it?"

"This is nothing. There's nothing I can't find. Now you can speak with confidence, right?"

Mary nodded. "Ye Kai, Lucy's true identity is a senior agent of the Eagle Country's secret intelligence agency."

Code name 006.

"006?" Ye Kai repeated.

"You should know 007, right?"

Ye Kai nodded. "Of course."

"Lucy is 006, even higher than 007. Now you should know how powerful she is, right?"

"What is her mission?"

"Her mission is to persuade you to work at the Royal Academy of Sciences in the United States."

"What if I disagree?"

"Then she'll kill you!"

"I'll take her out first!"

Ye Kai stood up and started to walk out, but Mary quickly hugged him, saying, "You can't go!"

"Why? She's about to kill me, why can't I kill her first?"

"Even if you kill her, the intelligence agency will send someone else."

"If one comes, I'll kill one."

"The intelligence agency has tens of thousands of agents. Can you kill them all?"

"Then what do you suggest we do?"

"Lucy holds a high position in the intelligence agency. You need to find a way to win her over to ensure your safety."

"How do I win her over?"

Mary winked at Ye Kai, "You conquered her the way you conquered me."

"No, I'm not interested in her. I'd rather win you over first."

Mary pouted and said, "Good heavens, I can't stand being conquered every day. Let's take a break for a couple of days."

"A moment of spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold; let's not waste it, come on!"

Ye Kai picked Mary up and placed her on the table.

Mary let out a soft exclamation: "Oh my goodness!"

……

Two hours later, Mary collapsed and fell asleep beneath Ye Kai, like a cat whose bones had been removed.

Ye Kai came out of the room and had only taken a few steps when a door opened beside him, and Lucy came out and blocked his way.

"Mr. Ye, how about we talk privately?"
