Chapter 1422: Masterful Acting

Qin Yiyan sighed deeply and remarked, "It is indeed a stroke of luck, but the dangers involved are truly not something to be spoken of to outsiders."

"That is true, that is true. I see Mr. Qin hasn't fully recovered, so why are you in such a rush to discuss the previous project plan with me?"

"Because... it cannot be delayed any longer."

Qin Yiyan had Lin Ze take out the documents and began to discuss business.

In his work state, Qin Yiyan had a sharp gaze and an impressive aura.

Going back and forth with President Zhang, he did not fall behind at all.

However, his complexion... was visibly becoming exhausted.

This also made Liu Xin'ai, who had been hiding in the corner, very anxious.

Eventually, President Zhang also noticed the change in Qin Yiyan; he interrupted their conversation and asked with concern, "Mr. Qin, are you alright?"

"I'm fine."

"But your complexion..."

Qin Yiyan waved his hand and smiled with a pale face, "It won't hinder us from continuing our discussion."

"Actually, we've chatted about enough. For the subsequent details, we can arrange for others to follow up."

President Zhang seemed very considerate, but in reality? He was afraid Qin Yiyan would faint and cause him trouble.

Qin Yiyan did not force it either.

He took a long breath and smiled, "That's fine. Meeting with you today, President Zhang, was actually to tell you how much our company values this project."

"It's a good thing you came to meet me, otherwise... I really thought your company was going to abandon this project."

This project should have been handled by Qin Chao, who was temporarily managing the company.

But Qin Chao was very uninterested in the project, and the related work had been dragging on.

In the end, it directly caused President Zhang's dissatisfaction.

But now, President Zhang had already obtained the attitude he wanted from Qin Yiyan, and all his dissatisfaction had vanished into thin air.

And the most important point was that Qin Yiyan was sending a signal to the outside world: Qin Yiyan was still the one making the final decisions for the company.

Since that was the case, there was nothing to worry about.

It was just that...

This young man's body was truly weak.

In the time it took to say just a few sentences, his complexion had turned even paler.

President Zhang did not dare to stay any longer; after a few polite remarks, he left first.

It was time for Qin Yiyan to go back as well.

But the moment he stood up, his body went limp, and he fell back into his seat!

At this moment, Lin Ze called out rather dramatically, "Boss!"

"I'm fine, support me!"

Lin Ze's brain hadn't even reacted, but his arm had already gripped Qin Yiyan's arm.

Afterward, Qin Yiyan leaned most of his body weight directly onto Lin Ze.

Good heavens, Lin Ze stumbled and was about to fall!

Fortunately, at this moment, someone appeared and helped steady Lin Ze from behind.

Lin Ze turned his head, ready to express his thanks.

But upon turning his head, he was directly stunned: "Madam!?"

Standing here at this moment was none other than Liu Xin'ai.

But Liu Xin'ai's expression was not very good, and her face wore a look of disapproval.

She asked Qin Yiyan, "If you feel it's too much, don't go out. Look at your complexion!"

Qin Yiyan acted like a child who had done something wrong, hanging his head and murmuring, "Sorry, I made you worry."

"I am not worried about you! As a Doctor, I just can't stand seeing someone abuse their own body like this!"

Lin Ze felt that Liu Xin'ai had misunderstood Qin Yiyan, so he wanted to explain.

But thinking of the instructions Qin Yiyan had given him in the car...

Lin Ze chose silence.

Seeing that Qin Yiyan still wasn't moving, Liu Xin'ai asked, "Why aren't you leaving yet?"

"I... am a little thirsty, I want to drink some tea."

This answer made Liu Xin'ai sneer, "What 'want to drink tea,' I think your legs are hurting, aren't they!?"

"... No, they aren't."

"Then walk for me to see!"

"I..."

Qin Yiyan did not move, only lowered his head.

He was using actual actions to tell Liu Xin'ai the result.

Lin Ze was right by Qin Yiyan's side.

If the circumstances hadn't forbidden it, he would have applauded his boss!

Truly, he hadn't expected his boss's acting skills to be so masterful!!

Liu Xin'ai did not know the trickery between the two of them.

She only sighed lightly and said, "It seems the effect of the medicine is limited; I'd better perform Acupuncture on you."

Liu Xin'ai had considered performing Acupuncture on Qin Yiyan before.

But she hadn't been able to find a suitable practitioner of Acupuncture.

There is news recently, and finally, it can be arranged for Qin Yiyan.

Qin Yiyan heard this and felt a bit uneasy, muttering: "That sounds a bit scary."

"If there are sequelae, it will be even scarier!"

"……Alright, then when you do the Acupuncture, you have to be gentle."

This slightly coquettish tone……

Made Lin Ze shiver instantly.

Liu Xin'ai did not feel anything unusual; it seemed that Qin Yiyan had been speaking in this tone recently, and she had become somewhat accustomed to it.

However, Qin Yiyan said one thing incorrectly, and Liu Xin'ai immediately corrected him: "It is not me who will perform Acupuncture on you; I am not skilled at it."

Not her?

Qin Yiyan's expression stiffened slightly, and he asked again: "Then who is it?"

"Through Xiao Xiao, I found an Acupuncture master who has quite an achievement in this field and will definitely be able to help you."

Liu Xin'ai sincerely wanted to help Qin Yiyan.

But such sincerity could very likely cause Qin Yiyan to be exposed……

Qin Yiyan's eyes turned slightly, and then he said: "What kind of Acupuncture master is it? I must have someone check their background; only if I feel they are reliable can I let them treat me."

Liu Xin'ai felt this guy was too fussy.

Could she possibly harm him!?

However…… Liu Xin'ai still revealed the other person's information.

Qin Yiyan silently memorized it, deciding to have his subordinates investigate that person's information in a moment.

If he could bribe the other party, that would be best; this way, he would not have to worry about being exposed.

Liu Xin'ai raised her hand to check the time, then said to Lin Ze: "This guy loves to mess around; you have to keep an eye on him, and in his daily life, he should walk less and rest more."

Out of habit, Lin Ze replied: "Understood."

After saying this, Lin Ze noticed Qin Yiyan signaling him with his eyes.

Instantly, Lin Ze understood his boss's meaning.

He hurriedly changed his attitude and sighed: "But my words have very limited weight; even if I say something, Sir does not listen……"

Qin Yiyan was very satisfied with Lin Ze's reaction.

But to ensure the effect, Qin Yiyan feigned a reprimand: "Lin Ze!"

And Lin Ze also lowered his head accordingly, his face full of self-reproach.

Seeing this scene, Liu Xin'ai only thought Lin Ze was speaking up for what was right.

This made Liu Xin'ai frown, and opening her mouth, she expressed her dissatisfaction to Qin Yiyan: "Do not be so willful; your parents will worry about you!"

"Then will my wife worry about me?"

"Of course she will!"

Liu Xin'ai said it without thinking.

And only then did she slowly realize……

Hmm……

She is his wife.

This was a disguised admission that she was also worried about him……

Liu Xin'ai felt very awkward, and at the same time, she realized that Qin Yiyan was playing games with her!

This discovery made Liu Xin'ai unable to help but glare at Qin Yiyan.

Qin Yiyan pursed his lips, his smile carrying a trace of triumph.
