Chapter 70: Chapter 70 Department Dinner

Chapter 70 -70 Department Dinner

Lin Dong finally understood why some ancient emperors no longer held court in the mornings.

Resisting beauties capable of toppling cities and kingdoms, trouble due to a beautiful woman, required immense determination.

Lin Dong even almost conceived the idea of abandoning the “Nine Shift Longevity Secret” and going straight to the top.

But in the end, reason triumphed over desire.

Thinking of his master Daoist Qingshan’s expectations of him, Lin Dong quickly shook his head, suppressing that thought.

Endure, just endure until the fourth level!

He quickly said, “Sister Bai Jue, I’m going to take a bath, ah.”

Having said that, he hurried off to the bathroom as if fleeing.

Seeing this, Bai Jue muttered to herself, “Even this didn’t work, huh? Looks like I have to step up my game next time.”

Lin Dong bathed in the bathroom, imagining Sister Bai Jue’s dancing figure. He decided to focus on his cultivation and to reach the fourth level of the Nine Shift Longevity Secret as soon as possible.

“Once I reach the fourth level, Sister Bai Jue, then you’ll see how formidable I am…” he muttered to himself.

After that, the night passed without incident, and the next day, they had breakfast early and went to work together.

Arriving at the department, Lin Dong saw a group of people gathered around Huang Hua.

“Dr. Huang, about that property you mentioned last time, are there still houses available?” some doctors and nurses asked.

Huang Hua laughingly said, “The houses are in high demand, but don’t worry, with me here, it’s definitely not an issue.”

“That’s great, I’ve been wanting to buy a house recently, and I’ll choose that property you mentioned before.” Several doctors and nurses in the department were planning to group-buy the property Huang Hua talked about.

Lin Dong remembered that the property Huang Hua was talking about was developed by Huang Zicheng’s ‘Huang’s Real Estate Developer’.

The previous day, Yu Li, President of the Jianghai Business Association, came to hand him an invitation to the auction, and they chatted for a while.

From her, Lin Dong learned that there seemed to be some trouble with Huang’s Real Estate.

Moreover, although Lin Dong didn’t live in the city, he also heard about the frequent financial disasters among city real estate companies.

Therefore, he spoke up to remind these doctors and nurses who were looking to buy a house.

“You’d better watch out and be careful. Don’t end up buying an uncompleted building; if you spend all your savings on a house that can’t be delivered, it’ll be troublesome.”

He meant well, but as soon as he spoke, he was met with unanimous disdain from everyone.

“What do you know? Huang’s Real Estate is a well-established local real estate business in our Jianghai; how could their company possibly collapse?”

“You, a barefoot doctor from the countryside, don’t know anything.”

“Whether for investment or residence, buying this property is a sure win with no losses.”

“…”

Obviously, none of them believed Lin Dong’s words.

As for Huang Hua, he sneered and said, “Lin Dong, you can’t afford a house in the city, so you’re just jealous of others. Are you trying to defame us?”

“How can your heart be so dark?”

Lin Dong meant well, but seeing their disbelief, he said nothing more.

Although they were colleagues, he had just joined a few days ago and wasn’t very familiar. Since they wanted to buy, if something went wrong in the future, they would have to bear the consequences themselves.

As for the words of Huang Hua, Lin Dong retorted unapologetically:

“Jealous of you? What do you have that’s worth my jealousy? You think you’re worthy?”

After speaking, Lin Dong shook his head and turned away, heading for Director Qiao Bing’s office.

Seeing this, Huang Hua pouted and shouted at Lin Dong’s retreating back, “If you’re not jealous of us, why don’t you buy a house yourself?”

“Can you even afford it? With your status, you can’t even afford an apartment!”

Bai Jue happened to hear Huang Hua’s outburst and couldn’t help rolling her eyes, finding it somewhat amusing.

“An apartment? Even the most expensive house in the property newly developed by Huang’s Real Estate can’t compare to the villa Dongzi owns in Jingzang Linglong!” Bai Jue thought to herself.

However, she did not voice these thoughts.

There was no need to show off wealth, and unlike Huang Hua, who bragged about having a bit of money, she understood that discretion was the better part of valor.

Speaking of which, Lin Dong arrived at the Director’s office to find Qiao Bing reviewing medical records.

Though they had only interacted for a few days, Lin Dong knew Qiao Bing was a workaholic.

She often stayed at the hospital, only occasionally returning home when not on duty.

This was why Lin Dong did not meet her during either of his visits to the Qiao family; she was always at work.

When Qiao Bing saw Lin Dong, she put away the medical records and said, “Lin Dong, you’re here.”

“Is it time for my acupuncture treatment?”

Lin Dong nodded, “Yes, let’s start.”

Qiao Bing got up to close the door, then expertly exposed her flawless back.

As Lin Dong administered the acupuncture, Qiao Bing said, “Lin Dong, our department is having a dinner tonight to formally welcome you.”

Lin Dong was surprised by this tradition but nodded happily, accepting the invitation.

During the meeting that day, Qiao Bing announced this to the department.

“The dinner will be at ‘Yu Jiangnan restaurant’!”

After the announcement of the dinner, there was a cheer throughout the department.
