The Physician Tycoon

Junko Ono came to invite Ye Kai to a cocktail party, and Ye Kai followed Junko Ono to the venue.

The attendees at the party were all socialites from Niu Yue, mostly white girls or single women, including Wang Yanran, Zhou Wenwen, and Yuan Yuan.

Ye Kai found it strange and asked Wang Yanran, "How did you become socialites?"

Wang Yanran said shyly, "We donated money."

"Who did you donate to?"

"church."

Which church?

St. George's Church.

"Socialites can be bought with money?"

"Hey, Junko helped us with all of this. It's really just buying a ticket to a cocktail party, coming over to drink, chat, and meet a few people."

Ye Kai understood. If you can buy your way in, what kind of socialite is that?

"How much did you donate?"

"The starting price is five million."

"Are there still different levels?"

"There's no distinction based on rank. The more you donate, the more you'll get a platinum VIP card, giving you more opportunities to meet high-end men."

"How many high-end men have you met so far?"

Wang Yanran was afraid that Ye Kai would be angry, so she quickly shook her head, "No, I haven't contacted any of them."

"I don't believe you! If you don't find a good guy, won't you have wasted your money?"

"I really didn't. I just donated recently and haven't participated in many activities."

"Are you looking to marry a white man?"

"No, no, I don't like anyone else, I like you."

"Wow, I just got here. You're not telling me you were a complete beginner before, are you?"

"No, that's not it. I've talked to them. They're from our Great Xia."

A blond-haired young man from the East walked over and greeted Wang Yanran.

"Hi, Yanran, long time no see."

Wang Yanran nodded. "Hi, Pete."

The blond youth looked at Ye Kai. "Your new boyfriend?"

Wang Yanran waved her hand, "No, no, just ordinary friends."

The blond-haired man sized up Ye Kai. "Why does he look familiar?"

Wang Yanran tried to fool him, saying, "We're all from Great Xia, so of course we feel close."

The golden retriever looked for a while and then recognized him. "Wait, aren't you Ye Kai, the one who defeated Tai Sen?"

These words were like a boulder thrown into water, creating huge waves.

Everyone around gathered around, exclaiming, "Wow, it really is him!"

"The master who defeated Taisen has arrived!"

Since ancient times, beautiful women have loved heroes. White, Asian, and Black beauties all came over and surrounded Ye Kai.

"Let's go."

Ye Kai, with his arm around Wang Yanran's waist, used his Eighteen Falling Techniques to carve a bloody path through the crowd and flee the venue as if escaping.

Wang Yanran asked, puzzled, "Why are you leaving?"

"I don't like being surrounded by people; I like being free."

"How splendid it is to be the center of attention! So many people dream of receiving that kind of treatment, yet you choose to shirk it!"

"Who was that kid just now? Are you familiar with him?"

Wang Yanran said casually, "My ex-boyfriend, Pete."

"What Pete? I'm asking for his real name."

"His name is Liu Jiawei."

Why did you break up?

"We broke up because we were incompatible."

"Who is he? How did he get into the socialite club?"

"His father is a high-ranking official in the Ministry of Science and Technology of Daxia. He donates money to schools and churches, thus gaining entry into high society and wandering around everywhere." Judging from Wang Yanran's tone, she had a lot of opinions about Pete.

Ye Kai said disdainfully, "So he's a corrupt second-generation."

"You don't look down on me, do you?" Wang Yanran's eyes showed unease.

Why do you think that?

"Because my dad is also an official, I'm the 'second-generation corrupt official' you're talking about."

How do you know your father also embezzled funds?

"If he hadn't embezzled, where would he have gotten the money to send me here to study from his salary alone?"

Unexpectedly, Wang Yanran remained clear-headed.

"You're different from him."

"What's the difference? It's just the gender; aren't they all the offspring of corrupt officials?"

"I can't explain it clearly in a short time. I'm leaving now. Do you want to come in again?"

"No, if you're not going, I won't go either."

"Why don't you go in? Aren't you missing out on a chance to connect with high society?"

"To hell with high society, I've never been that interested in it."

"Then why are you still donating? Five million is not a small amount."

"Many classmates are donating money, and if I don't, I'll seem out of place."

"So you have a herd mentality."

"Right, since you don't want to go to the party, how about I take you to a movie?"

"See a movie?"

"Yes, Niuyue has the world's largest movie studio. I'll take you to see a blockbuster."

"All right."

Wang Yanran led Ye Kai to a movie theater and into a private room that was about 30 or 40 square meters in size, with one entire wall covered by a screen.

The two lay down on the sofa, with snacks, fruit and drinks on the coffee table next to them.

"What do you like to watch? Spy movies are fine, okay?"

"Can."

Wang Yanran found a spy drama, and the two watched the movie while eating.

Seeing the scene in the movie where the male and female protagonists are forced to separate, Wang Yanran suddenly felt emotional.

"Actually, I get along quite well with Pete."

"Then why did you break up?"

"Pete and I have been estranged ever since my dad went missing."

That means he's not sincere towards you.

"Actually, I can understand. That's how it is in this industry. If someone's parents have an accident, most people will stay away from them."

"Your circle is too materialistic."

"It's because they're afraid of getting implicated. I don't have many friends here anymore. Besides Wenwen, Yuan Yuan, and Lü Dadan, no one else associates with me. These people are like me; their parents all had accidents."

Wang Yanran suddenly became sad, her eyes reddened, and Ye Kai handed her a tissue, which she took and used to wipe her eyes.

Ye Kai comforted him, "Don't be sad. True friends don't care about these things."

Wang Yanran sighed, "If my dad were still alive, they wouldn't treat me like this."

"Maybe your dad will be back in a while."

Ye Kai wanted to comfort Wang Yanran, but after saying those words, he felt they sounded so fake.

Wang Jianhan, holding the high-ranking position of Deputy Director of the Police Department, how could he possibly have disappeared without a trace? Of course, it must be him.

"Don't try to comfort me, I know he's not coming back."

How did you know?

"He was the deputy commissioner of the police department; something must have happened for him to disappear. I suspect he's dead."

"You have to be optimistic, but that's not necessarily true."

"I'm an orphan now, an orphan with no one to care for me," Wang Yanran sobbed softly.

Ye Kai didn't know how to persuade her, so he could only watch the movie silently.

Wang Yanran suddenly threw herself into Ye Kai's arms, "Don't ignore me! If you ignore me too, I'll have no choice but to die!"

"No, I won't."

"Then you want me."

"Oh no, that won't do."

"I did it voluntarily; you'd be a fool not to."

Wang Yanran kissed Ye Kai passionately...
