While out picking up trash, I was forcefully pushed around by a beautiful female CEO.

"Yes, that's right! I only found out later that Qing Ning is really amazing."

Meng Qingyao nodded, her words seemingly expressing great admiration for the girl named Mu Qingning.

"Who is she?"

Lin Feng's surprise deepened. According to Meng Qingyao, Mu Qingning and Meng Qingyao were college classmates, so they couldn't have been very old back then.

This young woman in her early twenties was able to see through Meng Qingyao's strange illness at a glance. You should know that Meng Qingyao's parents had spent many years taking her to a senior traditional Chinese medicine doctor to learn the details of this strange illness.

"Qingning has been learning medicine since she was little, but I don't know who she learned it from! However, she can indeed suppress the strange illness in my body, but it's very troublesome and she gets exhausted every time. In the three years since my parents' accident, Qingning has come every year to treat me, but according to her, each treatment can only suppress the strange illness in my body for a year, and it seems that the effect of the treatments has been gradually weakening."

As Meng Qingyao spoke, she looked at Lin Feng and said, "So I was thinking, if your recovery of strength is really related to the strange illness I have, perhaps we could ask Qing Ning. With her medical skills, she might be able to figure out how to restore your strength. It's better than just guessing like a blind cat stumbling upon a dead mouse! And even if it's not related to the strange illness I have, Qing Ning's medical skills are so good, she might be able to help treat your internal injuries."

"Hmm, you're right. When will she come to treat your illness?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng's heart stirred slightly.

"It will take a while, but you can go to see her. Her clinic is in Qingyuan City, which is not too far from Minghai. If you drive, it will only take you five hours at most."

Meng Qingyao said.

"That works too. Why don't you come with me tomorrow?"

Lin Feng spoke up, saying that restoring his strength was undoubtedly the most important thing for him at the moment.

"I probably can't go tomorrow."

Meng Qingyao was somewhat tempted, but then shook her head helplessly: "Although Director Shen is your uncle, the company has a lot of things to do at the trade fair these two days. Minister Yu has already said that he will allocate a lot of resources to Meng's Pharmaceuticals during this trade fair. If I'm not here myself, wouldn't that be inappropriate? Besides, it involves coordinating many aspects, and I don't trust others to handle it. Lin Feng, you won't blame me, will you?"

"Why should I blame you? If my wife becomes a strong, independent woman, won't I be able to live off her even more comfortably?"

Lin Feng laughed.

"Tch, you're just being cheeky!"

Meng Qingyao was both amused and exasperated.

"Here's what we'll do. Give me your friend's phone number, and I'll go over there myself first thing tomorrow morning. If it's suitable, I'll bring her to Minghai. Your treatment for this year is coming up soon anyway."

Lin Feng thought for a moment and then said.

"Don't say that. Qingning is my friend. It's a favor that she came to treat me, not something she's obligated to do. Please don't force her."

Meng Qingyao spoke up.

"Don't worry, I understand that much!"

Lin Feng nodded and smiled.

"That's good. I still don't know how to thank her. She doesn't like money or anything expensive. The reason Meng's Pharmaceuticals has been able to develop so well over the years is actually because Qing Ning helped Meng's Pharmaceuticals make great breakthroughs in internal pharmaceutical research and development when she came. I even planned to give her 20% of Meng's Pharmaceuticals' annual dividends, but she refused."

Meng Qingyao said, and then gave Mu Qingning's phone number to Lin Feng.

"Is that so? Then she is indeed a girl with character."

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng felt a certain respect for Mu Qingning, whom Meng Qingyao had mentioned.

"Yes, she's someone I really admire! By the way, I'll transfer the money to you later. You're a grown man, how can you be without a penny on you?"

Meng Qingyao nodded, picked up her phone and transferred 20,000 yuan to Lin Feng, then yawned, "Waaah, I can't take it anymore, I'm going to sleep, I'm so sleepy, unlike you, you're like a cow..."

This was also what Meng Qingyao was wondering about. It's said that there are only oxen that die from exhaustion, not land that's been over-plowed. Why did this saying seem a bit inappropriate when applied to Lin Feng?

"Go to sleep, I'm actually sleepy too!"

Lin Feng checked the time; it was almost midnight. He patted Meng Qingyao's smooth, firm breasts under the covers to suppress the fire in his heart, then turned off the light and lay down to sleep.

……

The next morning, Lin Feng was woken up by a phone call.

Meng Qingyao was still asleep. Lin Feng glanced at his phone; it was an unfamiliar number, and it was only six o'clock.

Then, Lin Feng answered the phone.

"Hello, are you Mr. Lin?"

A man's voice came through the phone.

"It's me, and who are you?"

Lin Feng felt that the voice on the phone was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was for a moment.

"Hehe, I'm Liu Qingchuan, Secretary Liu from the Municipal Government Office!"

"That's what the person on the other end of the phone said."

"Hello, Secretary Liu, is something wrong so early? Is there a problem with Xiaozi?"

Lin Feng was half awake.

"Mr. Lin, don't worry, Young Master Qin is fine. He just needs some rest. Mayor Qin sent me to deliver the car to you and Miss Meng! I was worried about disturbing Miss Meng's work."

Liu Qingchuan said with utmost respect that he already knew what had happened last night and was aware of Lin Feng's importance, hence his extremely polite attitude.

"I see. Thank you for your trouble, Secretary Liu. I'll go down right away."

Lin Feng chuckled and replied in an equally polite manner.

"It's my duty, Mr. Lin. Please don't be offended that I disturbed your peaceful sleep. Here, I've left the car keys in the car. You can come down and get them later. No need to rush."

Liu Qingchuan said apologetically.

"That works too! Thanks!"

After thanking him, Lin Feng hung up the phone, but he didn't plan to sleep. He took a quick cold shower, washed up, and then went downstairs to get his car keys.

After going downstairs, he couldn't see the car anywhere. Then he suddenly realized that Liu Qingchuan had probably taken the car to the Meng family villa, since Liu Qingchuan had gone to the Meng family villa the last time he visited.

Lin Feng didn't bother Liu Qingchuan anymore. Instead, he called Meng Bufan and asked him to confirm. Sure enough, as he had thought, Liu Qingchuan had delivered it to the wrong place.

Lin Feng originally planned to go get his car after breakfast, but Meng Bufan insisted on bringing it to him. Lin Feng couldn't refuse and had to agree.

Since he had already gone downstairs, he simply went to a nearby breakfast shop and bought breakfast for himself and Meng Bufan before turning back.

Meanwhile, in Kyoto, far from the city center, atop Mount Shiryu stands a temple built against the mountainside.

The palace grounds are not large and appear extremely ancient.

Around the palace, one can see clusters of shimmering white mist from the mountain streams in the early morning glow, as if summoned, constantly converging towards this ancient palace.

On the terrace in front of the palace, a young man dressed in a gray robe, about the same age as Lin Feng, stood with his hands behind his back in the center of the terrace, exuding an otherworldly aura.

He gazed intently at the ever-surging, shimmering white mist above, his expression complex. He sighed softly, "Mengxi, is that man really that infatuated with you? It's truly infuriating... two years, and he still hasn't died... He really is an annoying cockroach, incredibly resilient!"
