Hu Fu couldn't help but regret it, facing the fawning demeanor of a leader he himself had to fawn over.
If he had known Lin Xiao Tian's background was so profound, he would have tried to curry favor with him earlier.
Now, not only had he missed an opportunity to connect with someone powerful, but he might have even offended them.
"It's all your fault, insisting on comparing yourself to Bai Xue. Now look, her boyfriend has such a strong background. You're going to get me killed!" Hu Fu couldn't help but complain.
"What do you… what do you mean by that?"
"What do I mean? You know perfectly well!"
"Fine! So you're blaming me?"
Hu Li Li looked at the man before her, recalling how he had doted on her not long ago. To her surprise, he had completely changed his tune.
"You only know how to blame me! What about you? You said Lin Xiao Tian couldn't compare to you. Hah, I don't know where you got that confidence!" Hu Li Li retorted.
"You have the nerve to talk about me? You, compared to Bai Xue? Even her silhouette is better than you are now!"
"Hu Fu! You scoundrel! Have you taken a liking to that country bumpkin, Bai Xue? You ungrateful wretch! You swore you loved me before!"
Facing Hu Li Li's accusation, Hu Fu sneered.
"Tell me, tell me if I shouldn't be fickle!"
Hu Fu looked at Bai Xue, then at Hu Li Li.
He had to admit, there was no comparison between the two.
On one side, Hu Fu and Hu Li Li had a complete falling out. On the other, Lin Xiao Tian was surrounded by a group of people.
"Manager Song, if there's nothing else, I'll be taking my leave," Lin Xiao Tian said to Song Ying Deng, who was smiling at him.
"Heh heh, then I won't disturb you, Mr. Lin. Here is my business card. If you ever need my assistance in the future, please feel free to contact me."
Lin Xiao Tian glanced at Song Ying Deng.
Song Ying Deng was in his thirties but appeared mature for his age and spoke with great tact. Although he was also a second-generation rich kid, he was leagues better than Xu You.
Lin Xiao Tian didn't dislike capable people like him, so he accepted his contact information.
As he passed the entrance, Lin Xiao Tian encountered Hu Fu and Hu Li Li again. This time, however, Lin Xiao Tian didn't even spare them a glance.
Seeing Lin Xiao Tian's indifference, Hu Fu regretted his actions immensely.
"Fine! You said we should break up, so let's break up!" Hu Fu spat out a harsh parting remark and then stormed off.
"You… you scoundrel!" Hu Li Li shrieked, drawing the attention of almost everyone present.
But she couldn't be bothered with others' gazes now. She and Hu Fu were practically heading towards marriage. Today, after buying the house, they were supposed to take the next step.
Who would have thought that her own vanity would lead to such an unpleasant parting?
She had originally intended to bully Bai Xue, but now she was being utterly crushed by her. Hu Li Li was on the verge of tears…
In the car, Lin Xiao Tian asked Bai Xue to prepare for the villa's renovation. Although the villa was almost completely decorated, Lin Xiao Tian figured Bai Xue might have her own preferred style, so he entrusted the matter to her.
After giving his instructions, Lin Xiao Tian returned to the Guoyi Guan (National Medical Hall).
There was still some time before work, so Lin Xiao Tian idly looked at Song Ying Deng's business card.
"Mansha Ya Group."
Lin Xiao Tian frowned.
The name sounded so familiar.
Soon, he remembered.
The brand of the cosmetics he had bought for Qin Yu Xiang last time was Mansha Ya, which cost nearly two thousand yuan for a set.
Lin Xiao Tian did a quick search on Baidu.
Information about Mansha Ya Group was quickly found.
Mansha Ya Group was a listed company. While not among the Fortune Global 500, it was quite well-known domestically. Had it not been for a previous financial crisis, Mansha Ya Group might have had a chance to enter the top 500.
Lin Xiao Tian pondered.
His beauty cream was in need of a collaborative partner.
Wasn't Mansha Ya perfectly suited for this role?
This would save him the trouble of finding someone.
Of course, he could also choose to cooperate with Fang Wen Hua.
However, Lin Xiao Tian had some reservations about working with Fang Wen Hua.
Although Fang Wen Hua treated him well, all his resources were invested in Lin Xiao Tian alone, which naturally increased the risk. Lin Xiao Tian understood the principle of not putting all your eggs in one basket.
Lin Xiao Tian added Song Ying Deng on WeChat, and then, seeing that it was almost time, he began his work.
The afternoon was once again filled with appointments.
Upon hearing that Lin Xiao Tian was back at work, patients who had already booked appointments with other specialists now rushed to get his number. Even patients from other departments joined the queue.
There was nothing that could be done.
Lin Xiao Tian had performed too many miracles recently, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him a divine doctor.
"Sigh! You'd think this was a marketplace, there are so many people, I can't even see any empty space," a young nurse complained.
"You haven't seen the queue downstairs. They say it stretches all the way to the main gate. The security guards are desperately trying to explain that there are no more numbers, but the patients just don't believe them," another nurse replied with a wry smile.
The afternoon passed in a flash.
Although there were still many people waiting outside for Lin Xiao Tian, his current energy was limited, and he couldn't see so many patients. He could only ask them to come back next time.
Afterward, Lin Xiao Tian tidied up, preparing to rest for a night and return to Jinsha Village tomorrow.
He wondered how the house renovation was going.
And the road.
Lin Xiao Tian had always wished for his village to have a road since he was a child. He was now eagerly anticipating seeing the progress on the road construction.
As night fell, Lin Xiao Tian tidied up briefly and then prepared to go to Bai Xue's place.
As he went downstairs, Lin Xiao Tian found someone blocking his path.
"Who are you? Is there something you need?" Lin Xiao Tian asked.
Hearing Lin Xiao Tian's question, the man in front of him became very angry.
"It's me! Qing Ling's future husband! Do you recognize me now?"
Dong Lin was furious.
This Lin Xiao Tian had not only stolen his woman but had also forgotten him in just one day.
"Oh!" Lin Xiao Tian said.
Dong Lin was taken aback.
Was this his reaction?
They were rivals in love now!
Was he looking down on him?
Seeing Lin Xiao Tian about to leave, Dong Lin stopped him.
"I'm giving you an opportunity. Leave Qing Ling immediately, or don't blame me for being impolite."
"How will you be impolite?" Lin Xiao Tian suddenly became interested.
"I can get you fired immediately!" Dong Lin said with a smug smile.
"Oh!"
After saying that, Lin Xiao Tian walked away without looking back.
"You… you…"
"Fine! You forced me!"
