The Fierce and Powerful Immortal Physician

"Oh? Really?"

Guo Xuan's smile froze instantly, her bright eyes following Zhou Hao's gaze to the landscape painting, incredulous:

"The painting 'High Mountains and Flowing Water' was created specifically for me by the renowned contemporary painter, Mr. Songhe."

"It is indeed a famous painting, but it has been misused. Look at the overlapping mountain shadows in the painting, which are slowly flowing down the wall like living water, connecting with your shadow to form a black ribbon."

This is a scheme to exchange life for form. Five hungry shadow demons lurk in the mountain shadows, growing stronger by constantly devouring the shadows of living people. Once the shadows have grown to a certain size, they will devour your soul.

"When you were unconscious at the People's Hospital, it was these guys causing trouble. I suppressed them on the spot. It turns out their true forms were hiding here, seemingly wanting to rise from the ashes and make a comeback."

Zhou Hao smiled faintly and patiently explained.

"Oh my god~"

Guo Xuan's eyes widened, seemingly understanding yet confused, utterly astonished. Out of her deep trust in Zhou Hao, she couldn't help but grasp his hand, her expression pitiful.

"Who's so awful? Zhou Hao, you have to help me get rid of them completely, okay?"

"They should be a match for the Guo family, right? Don't worry, I'll handle it."

Zhou Hao squeezed her soft, warm hand, then raised his right hand and flicked it lightly with his fingers. A grain of bright red cinnabar flew and landed in the upper left corner of the landscape painting.

It slowly melted into a vibrant sunrise, its rays shining brightly, and purple clouds drifting from the east.

A few piercing howls, seemingly about to shatter eardrums, were heard, before silence returned in an instant.

now,

The entire landscape painting suddenly became much brighter, and a vibrant sense of life rushed towards the viewer.

"Alright~ Don't take this painting down or move it casually. It will ensure your physical and mental well-being, and your career will flourish like the rising sun."

Zhou Hao sat down again, picked up his teacup, and took a big gulp.

"Thank you!"

Guo Xuan immediately felt a sense of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her body. Her spirits also lifted. Although she didn't know what direction Zhou Hao had taken, she felt a kind of inexplicable trust and admiration in her heart.

Without thinking, he sat down next to Zhou Hao and got down to business:

"Zhongjing Medicinal Herbs Company is relatively small and originally did not meet the requirements for being a supplier of Triumph Group. However, with your endorsement, I have decided to include it in our core partner system. This will be announced at the supplier conference tomorrow."

"I'm relieved to have become a core partner of the Triumph Group."

Zhou Hao smiled faintly: "Then I should thank you too."

"Yes, but the competition in the traditional Chinese medicine industry is very fierce this time. Qinghe Group, Baicaoyuan Herbal Medicine, and others are applying for cooperation. Qinghe Group is your godmother's company."

In other words, why don't you agree to let your company join? Wouldn't a strong alliance be more competitive?

"Qinghe Group needs to streamline its internal affairs before making any further moves."

"Okay, I'll do as you say. If you're free tomorrow, could you come to the supplier conference too?"

"I'm unemployed and have no status. Isn't this inappropriate?" Zhou Hao looked up at the woman in front of him who was in charge of a multi-billion dollar company, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

"Well, that's easy. My senior private consultant, a specially invited VIP, is that a suitable status?" Guo Xuan blinked her big, pitiful eyes, looking like a delicate little girl.

She wanted to act cute in front of Zhou Hao, and all her carefully concealed facades completely fell away.

"Okay, I'll come over tomorrow."

Zhou Hao was preparing to take his leave.

At this time,

Secretary Lancy entered and reported, "Mr. Guo, Shen Zechuan, the president of the Shen Group, requests an audience."

Does he have an appointment?

Guo Xuan frowned slightly: "Let him in."

"No, it is."

Lancy quickly retreated.

"Guo Xuan, I'm leaving now. Remember to take your medicine on time. In a couple of days, I'll give you another acupuncture treatment, and you'll be basically cured."

Zhou Hao seized the opportunity to suggest leaving.

"Um, could you stay a few more minutes? Could you do me one more favor?"

Guo Xuan pursed her lips and hesitated for a few seconds: "Shen Zechuan is pursuing me. He's always clinging to me like a piece of chewing gum, I can't shake him off, it's so annoying."

"You want me to be your human shield?"

Zhou Hao instantly understood his meaning and teased, then suddenly remembered something: "The Shen Group, right? He has a younger brother named Shen Zeyu?"

"No, don't get me wrong. My boyfriend should be like you. If it weren't for the fact that our families have some connections, I wouldn't bother with him at all."

Yes, they are half-brothers, and Shen Zeyu is an illegitimate child.

"I see~"

Zhou Hao curled his lip. Damn it, what a coincidence!

Between talking,

Lancy entered the office with a young man, holding a bouquet of roses. His hair was slicked back, and he had a hooked nose, bearing a striking resemblance to Shen Zeyu.

He called out with a grin from afar:

"Xiao Xuan, let's go have lunch together. I've opened a new restaurant, and the food is amazing!"

"Excuse me, I have a guest."

Guo Xuan's face was ashen: "I've told you so many times, don't bother me during work hours. If you continue like this, I'll contact you again."

Shen Zechuan then stopped smiling and glanced at Zhou Hao beside Guo Xuan, his gaze sweeping over him like a blade. After several breaths, he said in a sarcastic tone:

"Your guest is quite handsome! You look unfamiliar. Where do you work?"

"He is very handsome, he's exactly my type~ You're asking too many questions. If you have nothing else to say, please leave~" After Guo Xuan finished speaking, she instructed Lancy, "See him out."

"Ahem, Xiaoxuan, don't be angry."

Shen Zechuan presented the flowers to Guo Xuan and said with a shameless grin, "I have something important to discuss with you. It's about the cooperation between the Shen Group and the Triumph Group."

Guo Xuan gave Lancy a wink, and Lancy quickly came over to take the flowers. This scene had happened dozens of times before, and she handled it with ease.

"Isn't your brother Shen Zeyu's construction company involved in some external collaborations?"

"That's far from enough. We plan to work closely with Triumph and become your core partner. Aren't you having a supplier conference tomorrow?"

"Let the Shen Group be shortlisted. I've been waiting for this moment for a long time. If our two companies join forces, we'll be invincible."

"I can submit your application to the decision-making committee; whether it's approved or not isn't up to me."

Guo Xuan said coldly, "Is there anything else? If not, please leave."

"Yes, I'm determined to win this time."

Shen Zeyu was extremely unwilling. Before leaving, he glared at Zhou Hao, who looked completely nonchalant, and was filled with suspicion.

Where did this wild brat come from? There's no such person among the four major families of Yunyang.

I want the Guo family's money, and I want their women too; that's what you call getting both wealth and women.

Trying to steal my woman? You're asking for trouble!

Anyone who blocks my way shall die!

After saying that, he left the room dejectedly and took out his phone to send a message.
