Rebirth of the Celestial Miracle Doctor

Chapter 14: Chapter 14: Earnest Advice against One's Will



Qingcheng straightened her clothes, her eyes flashing anger as she glanced at Yun Mu. Yet there was a hint of complexity in her gaze.

This man, why couldn't she figure him out anymore? Not only did he have outstanding martial skills, taking on many by himself just now, but he also managed to reach her side in an instant. And on top of that, he was incredibly considerate.

He was nothing like the pretty-boy who had first shown up by her side!

Yun Mu, of course, could see through Qingcheng's little thoughts and coughed awkwardly a few times.

"Uhm, if there's nothing else that's particularly important, I should head back now. Jiajia has a lot of things that need my help!"

Having said that, Yun Mu turned to leave, but Qingcheng stopped him.

"Yun Mu, I don't care what you're hiding or what you're planning by coming to my side. But let me tell you, don't you dare cause trouble, at least not in the company."

Yun Mu paused slightly, surprised by the girl's fierce attitude. He turned back and met Qingcheng's gaze.

"Boss, you were about to fall just now, and I just caught you. Is that really considered causing trouble?"

Qingcheng, looking at Yun Mu's innocent expression and recalling the recent scene, felt her face flush with embarrassment.

"That's not what I'm talking about. I mean don't you dare start throwing punches near the company!"

Qingcheng had certainly witnessed the earlier incident outside the building, but since she saw Yun Mu was okay afterwards, she chose not to escalate the situation further.

As someone from the bureau, Qingcheng understood that the people who came knocking were either from one of two forces. They were either that gang who had troubled Yun Mu that night or Shen Shou, who had just been threatened by Yun Mu.

Knowing Shen Shou's personality and temper, Qingcheng was sure that he would investigate his opponent's background thoroughly before making a move and wouldn't come knocking in the short term.

Therefore, the only possibility was that the people who had meant harm to Yun Mu that night were to blame.

Qingcheng had no idea that the Yun Family also wanted to take Yun Mu's life, so she concluded that these men must be the Zhong Family's hired thugs.

Ever since the Zhong Family learned about her marriage to a "pretty-boy," they had harbored a grudge, openly and secretly vowing to take his life. So Qingcheng's assumptions weren't unfounded.

Yun Mu merely chuckled, seemingly unconcerned about these dangers, "Don't worry, boss. I know what I'm doing and won't let things get out of hand."

Qingcheng gave a slight nod, "The situation you're in is still not optimistic, so try to keep a low profile for the time being to avoid drawing more enemies to your doorstep."

With his beautiful wife's concern, Yun Mu felt delight in his heart. No matter how many enemies came at him, with this stunning cheerleader Lala's encouragement, he, Yun Mu, could fend them all off.

However, at this moment, Yun Mu also wanted to coax some information out of Qingcheng.

After all, he had just arrived in Ji'an City and was unfamiliar with everything here. Searching through this blockhead's memories, he found that aside from knowing the city's places for eating, drinking, and revelry, he knew nothing about anything else.

"Boss, I have some questions I want to ask you," Yun Mu said seriously.

Qingcheng was taken aback; she had never seen such a solemn expression on this young man's face before and wondered what he really wanted to find out from her.

Nevertheless, Qingcheng still nodded her head, "Ask away. As long as I can answer, I will do my best."

Yun Mu chuckled, "It's not anything too difficult, I just want to know, what sort of person is this Master Shen?"

So that's what he was asking about. Qingcheng couldn't help her irritation at the mention of this guy, and she promptly poured out everything to Yun Mu.

"He's nothing but a playboy. But unlike other wealthy sons, he comes from a particularly substantial background."

"Oh, how substantial? More so than mine?" Yun Mu asked mischievously.

Qingcheng rolled her eyes at Yun Mu, clearly not grasping his point, "His background is much stronger than yours. Although you come from Beijing, you hold no status within your family. This Shen Shou is the only child of the Shen Family in Ji'an City, which holds a formidable position, and he is dearly pampered."

Yun Dong nodded thoughtfully and asked, "Is this Shen Family really that powerful? More so than our corporation?"

"Of course, our corporation is nothing compared to the Shen Family. We excel in financial resources, but they surpass us in power and connections. And power and connections are more important than wealth."

Having said that, Qingcheng seemed to recall something and let out a heavy sigh.

"Yun Mu, I felt gratified when you confronted Shen Shou last time, but it wasn't a wise decision on a rational basis. I think that guy will surely seek revenge on our corporation someday."

"I don't have many flaws as a person, but my only flaw is being very principled. In my world, right and wrong are clear-cut, and if Shen Shou dares to continue his recklessness, I will truly slap him to death."

Hearing Yun Mu talk nonsense with such seriousness, Qingcheng snorted with laughter. But after she laughed, a sense of security welled up inside her.

Although she was the chairman of the corporation with a vast enterprise under her control, at heart, Qingcheng was still a vulnerable woman, especially under the pressure from all sides, she needed someone to confide in and rely on.

Yun Mu's sudden change solved two major problems for her immediately— the marriage pressure from the Zhong Family and the entanglements with Shen Shou.

Qingcheng suddenly felt that this pretty boy had an unyielding presence. Although their marriage was a sham, at this moment, she somewhat wished this man could always stay by her side, shielding her from the storms of life.

But Qingcheng quickly realized this was unrealistic, at least for now.

Yun Mu was in constant danger, with threat looming at every second. If he was to become more involved in her life, wouldn't that mean he'd never be able to turn things around?

"Alright, I've got it. But you don't have to worry, boss. I have my own ways of dealing with the Shen Family," Yun Mu said nonchalantly.

For now, he could only take things one step at a time, Yun Mu thought to himself. But knowing the strength of his adversary was a good thing, as the saying goes, 'Know thyself, know thy enemy, and you will never be defeated.'

"Good, since you're confident, I won't say much more. Just remember to maintain your image at the company and be careful in every aspect," Qingcheng said, not sure what else to say due to the awkward status between her and Yun Mu. She could only instruct him with the tone of a superior speaking to a subordinate.

After walking out of the office, Yun Mu pondered how to deal with the Shen Family.

The die was cast, and according to his 'wife,' Shen Shou would sooner or later come looking for trouble.

But Yun Mu was neither afraid nor regretful. No matter how capable the Shen Family was, if they crossed his line, he, Yun Mu, would never go easy on them.

Moreover, Yun Mu clearly saw lust in Shen Shou's eyes for his 'wife' last time, something which was absolutely intolerable.

Such a beautiful woman could only belong to Yun Mu himself, heh heh.

But if Shen Shou also had some quality goods at hand, Yun Mu wouldn't mind taking them as well. After all, his 'wife' wouldn't object.

Just after taking a few steps, Yun Mu's phone rang.

Yun Mu felt for his Fruit 4 in his pocket, but when he pulled it out, he found the screen showed neither an incoming call nor a single message.

Huh, that's strange. The phone definitely rang just now.

Yun Mu, with a puzzled look, returned the Fruit 4 to his pocket and shook his head.

Could it be that he was suffering from such severe physical exhaustion that he was starting to have hallucinations?

After a few more steps, the phone rang again, causing Yun Mu to feel frustrated. He stopped in his tracks to carefully locate the source of the sound.

There it was! Yun Mu fished out a Fruit 6s from his clothes, remembering this was a trophy he had seized from Brother Hei earlier.

The new phone was indeed great, with a sleek appearance and an ultra-thin design that Yun Mu found irresistible. But the ringtone was really annoying—couldn't it be something other than a tacky tune?
