The Physician Tycoon

Ye Kai reacted instinctively, using a grappling technique to grab the man's arm.

The person screamed in pain. Ye Kai turned around and saw that it was Wu Lian. He quickly released Wu Lian's arm and asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"

"I saw you came out alone and was worried you'd get lost, so I offered to guide you. Who knew you'd hit me!"

Wu Lian said indignantly.

"Excuse me, you tapped me on the shoulder from behind. I thought you were a bad guy."

"They just tapped you lightly, and you reacted with such force?"

Wu Lian rubbed her arm, groaning in pain.

"I'll treat you."

Ye Kai placed one hand on Wu Lian's shoulder and the other on her wrist, pulling and pushing forcefully until a cracking sound was heard.

"Okay, try it and see if it still hurts."

Wu Lian tried it, and not only did it not hurt, it was even more comfortable than before.

She asked curiously, "What kind of skill is that? You just pulled me off?"

"Bone setting technique, don't follow me anymore, go home quickly, your parents will worry about you."

After Ye Kai finished speaking, he strode forward, and Wu Lian quickly followed behind.

"Kyoto is so big, and this is your first time here. I'm afraid you'll get lost."

"Why are you still following me? Aren't you afraid of being kidnapped by bad guys if you keep running around like this?"

Wu Lian chuckled, "With you here, what am I afraid of? I feel safer with you than at the Governor's Mansion."

"That's not necessarily true. What if I'm a bad guy?"

"Even if you're a bad person, I'm not afraid of you."

Wu Lian clung to Ye Kai like a piece of chewing gum, which annoyed Ye Kai, so he simply ignored her and strode forward.

Wu Lian walked quite fast, jogging alongside Ye Kai.

"Ye Kai, what did my dad talk to you about today?"

Why are you asking this?

"I'm curious because I've seen you talking for a long time."

"Are you that curious?"

"Well, just do me a favor, maybe I can give you some advice."

Ye Kaixin thought that maybe she could learn about Wu Weixiong through Wu Lian.

What kind of person is your father?

Wu Lian thought about it seriously for a moment, and was about to speak when she suddenly giggled.

Ye Kai was confused by her. "What are you laughing at?"

"You want to understand my dad through me, right?"

Ye Kaixin thought to himself, "It seems this girl is just as clever as her father."

"If you don't want to talk about it, then forget it! Let's go our separate ways." Ye Kai turned and left.

"Hey, don't be in such a hurry to leave. I can tell you, but we can't exactly say it in the street, can we?"

Ye Kai thought about it and agreed; it was indeed inappropriate to talk about the governor in the street.

He looked around and saw a tea restaurant. "Let's go have some tea."

The two sat down at the tea restaurant. Wu Lian ordered a pot of tea, fruit, and some snacks. She ordered every single snack as if she had never eaten any before.

When the snacks were served, Wu Lian didn't care about her image anymore. She grabbed them with her hands and ate them, getting sesame and cream-like things all over her face, which was very funny.

Ye Kai couldn't help but ask, "Haven't you eaten these before?"

Wu Lian's mouth was full of snacks, so she couldn't even speak, and she just made a few "hmm" sounds.

Ye Kai had no choice but to patiently wait for her to finish the two large plates of pastries. Wu Lian took a tissue to wipe her mouth, drank a few sips of tea, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, having time to talk to Ye Kai.

"Where can I usually get these kinds of things?"

"I don't believe it. Your father is the governor; he can eat whatever he wants."

"My parents are very strict with me. My mom works at the Ministry of Health and is very particular about diet and nutrition. She says these are all junk foods and won't let me eat them! I can't go out usually, so I don't even have a chance to sneak some."

"You spend all your time in the Governor's Mansion, don't you go to work?"

Wu Lian rolled her eyes at Ye Kai. "Big brother, am I that old to still be working?"

Ye Kai smiled and said, "You're not old at all, you're very young."

"Hmph, that's more like it."

Where do you go to school?

"Third-year student in the History Department at Kyoto University."

Ye Kai had heard of Kyoto University, which was the top university in Great Xia.

"It's summer vacation now, so I can't go out like everyone else. I have to stay at home, and I'm going crazy! Luckily, that eagle caught me; it was so damn exciting!"

Ye Kai shook his head. It seemed that this girl was really going crazy from being cooped up at home.

"Then why did your dad let you come out today?"

"It's all thanks to you. I told them you were new here and didn't know anyone, and that I wanted to be your guide, and they agreed."

Why would they agree?

"Maybe they felt I was too cooped up and really needed to relax."

Ye Kai knew things weren't that simple, so he activated his Heavenly Eye and scanned his surroundings.

I spotted a few men loitering around nearby, wearing headphones and with bulging waists; you could tell from their physiques they were trained fighters.

Ye Kai understood; Wu Weixiong had sent bodyguards to secretly protect Wu Lian.

Ye Kai chatted with Wu Lian casually.

"Your dad is getting old, how come you're so young?"

"I have an older brother and an older sister, so I'm the youngest, of course I'm the youngest."

Where are you? Not in Kyoto?

My brother is studying in the United States, and my sister is studying in the United Kingdom.

"Then why don't you go abroad to study?"

"My mom said we can't all go abroad, otherwise we'll become officials with family members abroad, which will affect my dad's image."

Wu Lian is still young, so she answers whatever is asked, which gives the impression of a child speaking without restraint.

"Is there anything else you'd like to eat? I'll order you something else."

"Alright, I've eaten quite a lot, and it cost you a lot of money."

"Don't be so polite with me, I can afford this little bit of money."

"I'm not going to stand on ceremony with you. Let's talk about what my dad talked to you about."

"I'm telling you, you can't just say things like that."

"Don't worry, I definitely won't tell anyone. I'm usually locked up at home, so even if I wanted to, no one would listen!"

Ye Kai thought about it and agreed, so he said, "Your father wants me to become a government official, but I don't want to."

Wu Lian blinked her big eyes, puzzled, and asked, "Why? Isn't being an official good?"

"I don't like it. I prefer a free and unrestrained life."

"What did my dad say?"

"Your dad tried to persuade me several times, but seeing that I was very determined, he gave up on the idea and asked me to help him deal with some people."

"Who is it?"

"There are rebels like the prince, and also some Japanese."

Wu Lian thought for a moment, then suddenly realized, "Oh, I understand."

"What do you understand?"

"My dad wants to recruit you, but when you're unwilling, he'll have you deal with some people he can't handle himself. Once you've dealt with them, he'll kick you to the curb!"

Ye Kai was secretly alarmed. No one knows a father better than his daughter. Wu Lian must know Wu Weixiong very well and has spoken out what Wu Weixiong was thinking.

He pretended not to believe it, "No way, your dad isn't that kind of person."

"No, that's just the kind of person he is. I saw several books in his study, such as 'The Art of Thick-Skinnedness and Black-Heartedness,' 'The Biography of Cao Cao,' and 'The Biography of Wu Zetian.' I don't need to tell you who Cao Cao and Wu Zetian were, do I?"

Ye Kaixin thought to herself, "Cao Cao and Wu Zetian, what ruthless people they were!"

It seems that serving a ruler is like serving a tiger; it's better to go home as soon as possible!
