Forced to Marry a Female Billionaire CEO-Chapter 600 Handling Affairs

Lin Huiyang immediately panicked. "No, no, you've got it all wrong."

Seeing Xu Ke's expression, he knew Xu Ke had mistaken Zhou Fan for being gay.

"Then what is it?"

"Young Master Fan just thought I had the right look, that I was suitable to play the role of a scammer, so he asked me to leave the gathering and go with him..."

"And then what?" Xu Ke raised an eyebrow.

"Young Master Fan promised me 100,000 to sell the medicine to you. The money was so good I wouldn't have to work for the rest of the year, so I took the deal."

"Then I had your clinic put under surveillance until a few days ago, when Wong Gang came to the door begging for treatment. That's when I saw my chance."

"I arranged a seemingly casual encounter, persuaded him to bring me here, and said I was here to sell medicine, which would be beneficial to your clinic."

"Wong Gang happily escorted me over."

"You know what happened after that, Doctor Xu," Lin Huiyang continued with a mournful face. "Please let me go. I've told you everything."

Looking up at the enclosed space around him, the fear in Lin Huiyang's heart was immense. Zhou Fan had told him that Xu Ke was just a useless pretty boy kept by Wong Qifu, an easy target to fool, which was why he had come. He never expected that he wouldn't even know how he had passed out. This place is a dragon's den, a tiger's lair!

"Relax, don't be nervous. I have no intention of harming you." Xu Ke got up and smiled. "Do you know why he asked you to sell me the medicine?"

Lin Huiyang shook his head.

"Where is the medicine?"

"I don't know. He just told me to close a deal with you."

"Fine. Leave your number and you can go," Xu Ke said with a wave of his hand, guessing the man likely didn't know anything else.

Lin Huiyang was ecstatic. "Really?"

"Do you want to stay here instead?" Xu Ke glanced at him.

Scrambling to his feet, Lin Huiyang ignored the pain where Tang Yingchang had struck his neck and said gratefully, "Thank you, Doctor Xu! Thank you, Doctor Xu!"

Xu Ke handed him a pen and paper to write down his number.

But Lin Huiyang pulled a golden business card from his pocket instead. "This is my card. I'm Lin Huiyang, number thirteen. If you need anything, feel free to call me..."

He hadn't finished speaking when the temperature suddenly seemed to drop.

He looked up and saw Xu Ke staring at him calmly. "That's enough."

"Yes!" Lin Huiyang realized his professional habits had kicked in and gave an awkward laugh. Seeing Xu Ke accept the business card, he asked, "So, can I go now?" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Go ahead," Xu Ke nodded.

Just as Lin Huiyang was about to leave, Xu Ke suddenly thought of something. "Wait a minute."

"What's wrong?!"

"Right now, in front of me, call Zhou Fan. Tell him you've handled everything and that I've placed an order with you."

Lin Huiyang was stunned and asked instinctively, "Why?"

"Don't ask so many questions. Just do it."

Under pressure from Xu Ke, Lin Huiyang had no choice but to take out his phone and make the call. After a few words, Xu Ke clearly heard the elation in Zhou Fan's voice.

"I've made the call," Lin Huiyang said nervously as he lowered his phone.

"You can go now."

"But... Doctor Xu, Young Master Fan said he'll send someone from the pharmacy to sign the contract with you later. Are you sure you want to buy it?" Lin Huiyang was puzzled.

Xu Ke clearly saw through the scheme, so why would he still agree to Zhou Fan's terms?

"Buy it? Why wouldn't I?" Xu Ke's lips curved into a slight smile.

Lin Huiyang was utterly confused, but unable to grasp the situation, he gave up trying to understand. He bid farewell to Xu Ke, "Doctor Xu, I'll be leaving then."

"Go ahead."

He hurried to the door, but before he could leave, he stopped and turned back to Xu Ke. "Doctor Xu, may I ask something?"

"Speak," Xu Ke replied faintly, his mind elsewhere.

Lin Huiyang asked, puzzled, "How did you see through me?" He was baffled, as he thought he had disguised himself perfectly.

"You didn't hide the recording pen well," Xu Ke began. "Also, I never introduced myself as Xu Ke, yet you were calling me Dr. Xu so affectionately.

"The key, though, is that I know the Haidong Pharmacy belongs to Yihe Pharmaceuticals. That alone was enough.

"Now, get out."

Lin Huiyang broke into a cold sweat and nodded hurriedly. "Yes!"

But the moment he pulled the door open, he called out again. "Doctor Xu..."

Growing impatient, Xu Ke stared at him coldly. "What is it?"

Startled by the glare, Lin Huiyang suddenly looked shy. "I work at the Tianmen Clubhouse in Haidong. I'm the manager there. You can come visit me when you're free...

"I can give you one service for free."

After saying his piece, Lin Huiyang ran out with a bashful expression.

Hearing this, Xu Ke was thunderstruck and stood frozen to the spot. After a long moment, he muttered, "Fuck! Dammit."

He felt a chill run down his spine, his entire body breaking out in goosebumps.

...

After Lin Huiyang left, Xu Ke sat by the window, lost in thought.

I've only been away from Tianhai for a few days, and Zhou Fan is already so eager to cause trouble. The likely motive is my thirty percent of the shares. But...

He couldn't understand why they would want to sell him medicine. Are they planning to sell me defective products and then call in a group of reporters to accuse my clinic of using substandard medicine? That kind of scheme seems too simple to work, doesn't it?

After a while, Xu Ke laughed. "If I can't figure it out, I won't waste my time on it. I'll just deal with whatever comes my way."

Right now, I have more pressing matters to attend to. If I don't act quickly, Shi Hongda and the Yin Yang Elders might find out...

Just as Xu Ke picked up his phone, planning to contact Shi Hongda, Wang Wu walked in.

"Mister Xu, that person has left. Should I have someone keep an eye on him?"

"No need, I've already arranged it," Xu Ke said with a smile. While Lin Huiyang was unconscious, he had already asked Yuk Dalong to send some unsavory characters to watch him.

Wang Wu nodded slightly, then hesitated.

"Uncle Wu, what is it?" Xu Ke asked, noticing his expression.

"Mister Xu, your... your cultivation level... what happened?!" Wang Wu swallowed hard, his voice dry. He had noticed it the moment Xu Ke walked into the clinic—an overwhelming aura that Xu Ke couldn't quite conceal.

He saw it clearly: a genuine Innate Initial Stage cultivation!

"Ah, that..." Xu Ke stammered, rubbing his nose. "I just... suddenly broke through."

"What?" Wang Wu's eyes widened in disbelief.

What does 'suddenly broke through' even mean?

Feeling a sense of urgency, Xu Ke gave a wry smile. "Uncle Wu, you can ask Elder Tang for the details.

"I need to go find Shi Hongda now. There's something I need him to do... Sorry about this!"

Hearing that Xu Ke had urgent business, the stunned Wang Wu quickly nodded. "Okay, you go handle your business. I'll just ask Tang Brother."

With that, Wang Wu turned and left.

But as he walked into the lobby, the more he thought about it, the more something felt off. Gradually, a look of confusion and bewilderment spread across his face.

Xu Ke needs Shi Hongda... to do something for him? What is that about? Did Xu Ke misspeak? Isn't Shi Hongda his enemy???
