Chapter 1280: Seeking Advice

"Ms. Chen, is what you said true? Is there really such a person in this world?" Li Guofu's breathing hitched. "Can you take me to see him?"

"I can, but I must ask for his opinion first." Chen Jing nodded. She did not dare to agree lightly now, because she knew clearly that Chen Yu was a master.

And for such a master, him helping you once was a stroke of fate; she had to handle it with extreme caution. If she truly made Chen Yu unhappy, she could not bear the consequences.

"Good, good. I implore you to please help. I want to know how he did it; this is a miracle in Medicine." Li Guofu's heart raced with excitement.

In the evening, Chen Yu arrived for the appointment on time.

Liu Ruxi had changed out of her uniform and was wearing casual clothes, her hair tied in a ponytail, looking very cute.

In a very stylish Western restaurant, she and Chen Yu sat face to face.

"What would you like to eat? This Western restaurant is considered the best in the vicinity; the chefs here are all five-star."

"Moreover, their steaks are all air-freighted in. Usually, I wouldn't even bear to come here myself."

"Then thank you. I've caused you to spend a lot this time. Can you tell me how much this meal costs?" Chen Yu asked.

"Your monthly salary wouldn't be enough. Oh, right, you've been made a permanent employee. I'm giving you a five-thousand raise, so your salary is now twenty thousand. From now on, you'll be my personal driver," Liu Ruxi said with a smile.

"Thank you. There's no need to spend so much. I'm very easygoing; just eating something casual is fine," Chen Yu smiled.

He had no concept of money, because to him, these were truly just numbers, but now he had to pretend to be someone who had never seen the world.

Because he could not arouse Liu Ruxi's suspicion, and Chen Yu did not know when her consciousness would awaken. Now there was only one way, and that was to wait.

"Since I'm treating, of course I have to show some sincerity," Liu Ruxi smiled and said. "You helped me with such a big favor, how could I be stingy?"

"Actually, it wasn't a big favor, just a small effort," Chen Yu smiled.

"Then can you tell me why she finally had a change of heart?" Liu Ruxi stared at Chen Yu. "I wanted to cooperate with Chenchen, so I put in quite a lot of effort this time."

"I knew her husband couldn't really make the decisions, so I researched Chen Jing's personality beforehand."

"But I still underestimated the stubbornness of an old woman going through menopause. I couldn't help but lose my temper this time. If it weren't for you, this cooperation would have been off the table."

"Do you really want to know?" Chen Yu smiled slightly.

"Yes, I'm dying to know," Liu Ruxi nodded earnestly. "At the very least, I should have enough understanding of my own employees. If I don't even know what kind of person you are, how can I lead you in the future?"

"No need," Chen Yu shook his head. "You only need to know that you can manage me."

"Haha, that won't do. The reason I was able to grow the company to one billion in three years relies not only on luck, but also on my understanding of my employees."

"Well, that's true. If you were like ordinary people, you wouldn't be you," Chen Yu smiled slightly, speaking with hidden meaning.

"Then can you tell me, what was the reason?" Liu Ruxi looked at Chen Yu earnestly.

"She was physically uncomfortable," Chen Yu said.

"She was sick? I overlooked that," Liu Ruxi was slightly stunned. "And what does that have to do with you?"

"I was a doctor before I started working. I know some folk remedies, so I told her the remedy, and it worked immediately," Chen Yu smiled.

"What kind of folk remedy is so powerful?" Liu Ruxi was slightly stunned. "And what illness did she have?"

"That is her secret, so I won't say. The remedy was just a small, common one, but it was also very effective," Chen Yu smiled mysteriously.

"Is that why she gave the order to you?" Liu Ruxi was stunned for a long time. "So that was the reason."

"Yes, in business, many things are actually coincidental," Chen Yu said. "You have done quite well, because you can grasp many details, and these are things that an excellent leader possesses."

"If only I had prepared more comprehensively," Liu Ruxi murmured. "If I had known earlier that she was sick, I would have made more preparations in that regard, and I wouldn't have been so passive."

"It would have been useless," Chen Yu said. "Doctors couldn't do anything about her illness. It wasn't too serious, but it was very tricky. Even if you had gone, you couldn't have solved it."

"So you mean that besides you, no one else could solve this?" Liu Ruxi glared at Chen Yu. "You might as well just say that only you could solve this."

"Haha, I'm not bragging, but besides me, no one really could have solved it," Chen Yu smiled.

"You really are bragging, but thank you nonetheless. I toast you with this glass," Liu Ruxi raised a glass of red wine and clinked it with Chen Yu's.

Just then, a waiter walked over: "Hello, Ms. Liu. The gentleman at the next table sent you a bottle of red wine."

"Who?" Liu Ruxi was slightly stunned and subconsciously glanced at the next table, happening to see a man nodding and smiling at her.

This man was dressed very elegantly and also looked like a gentleman, giving people a feeling of being bathed in a spring breeze.

Moreover, his appearance was such that even if he did something excessive, he would still be forgiven.

"Sorry, I don't know him. Take the wine back," Liu Ruxi shook her head.

"Ms. Liu, this bottle of wine is an original vintage from a French winery. It is very valuable. Let me open it for you," the waiter smiled and opened the wine directly.

"I will file a complaint against you to your manager," Liu Ruxi said coldly.

The waiter was stunned; she also knew that her actions were a bit rash.

"Ms. Liu, I am truly very sorry. I had no intention of offending you." The man walked over upon hearing this. He waved his hand, and the waiter hurriedly put down the wine and left.

"But your appearance here is an offense to me. Don't you feel that yourself?" Liu Ruxi sneered.

"Then I sincerely apologize to you here. If my offense makes you feel unhappy, you can vent at any time," the man smiled slightly.

"Chen Yu, let's change places to eat. This restaurant doesn't even protect the privacy of its guests. I don't think there's any need to come here in the future," Liu Ruxi stood up and said.

"Okay," Chen Yu nodded and stood up with her.

"Ms. Liu's male companion doesn't quite match your status," the man smiled slightly. "He looks like he should be a wage earner."
