Chapter 15

"I know who this woman is," Yang Tingting said, looking out the window.

"Oh? You know her?" Lu Man's curiosity was already itching to be satisfied.

"Not exactly, but we had a meal together during the Spring Festival. It was just a brief encounter. I didn't recognize her at first... She's the director of our Shuncheng Education Bureau," Yang Tingting explained.

Lu Man was surprised. She wasn't surprised that Yang Tingting had dined with the Education Bureau director. Knowing Yang Tingting's background, it wouldn't be surprising even if she had dined with the mayor. What surprised her was Lin Yihang. Looking outside, the beautiful director seemed somewhat nervous and deferential in front of Lin Yihang, almost like a nanny rather than a director facing a student.

"Who is this Lin Yihang? Even the Education Bureau director is so polite to him!" Lu Man whispered.

No one could answer her question.

"Thank you, Doctor Lin. My father is much better. Your acupuncture is very effective," Guan Meiqing said gratefully outside the window.

Guan Meiqing's beautiful appearance and strong aura made her quite intimidating. Only someone with confidence would dare to get close to her. They were standing by the railing outside the classroom, which was usually crowded with students during breaks, but now no one was around, leaving only the two of them.

With no students around, only people in the classroom or from a distance occasionally glanced over and whispered, so they didn't have to worry about being overheard.

"I know," Lin Yihang nodded calmly.

"However, my father is not fully recovered, so I would like to ask Doctor Lin to continue treating him," Guan Meiqing said.

"No problem," Guan Meiqing spoke directly, and Lin Yihang answered straightforwardly.

"Really? Thank you so much, Doctor Lin!" Guan Meiqing was delighted, her face beaming with joy. She hadn't expected it to be so smooth and was so excited that she grabbed Lin Yihang's hand.

Inside the classroom and in the surrounding classes, the students watched this scene with envy and resentment, especially the boys, who wished they could take Lin Yihang's place.

It was the season of adolescence, the time when hormones were most active and dreams were the most vivid... Which middle school student wouldn't dream of this moment? Being held by a goddess in front of everyone...

The scene unfolded, but the protagonist wasn't them... Instantly, they were filled with envy and resentment!

"Don't thank me. I didn't say I would treat him for free," Lin Yihang said calmly, his expression unchanged. He wasn't the type to get carried away just because a beautiful woman touched his hand.

"Of course, as long as Doctor Lin is willing to help, the payment is negotiable," Guan Meiqing said.

Wasn't her father's life more important than any payment?

"Alright! Bring me a hundred-year-old ginseng root first! The same kind as last time, as the fee for the next acupuncture session," Lin Yihang said.

"Uh..." Guan Meiqing's expression stiffened, and she looked embarrassed.

"Is it too much to ask?" Lin Yihang countered.

"No, no, no! It's not about the cost," Guan Meiqing let go of Doctor Lin's hand, waving her small hand, eager to explain. "A hundred-year-old ginseng root is hard to come by. We were lucky to get the last one from an elder. If we need another one, it might take a long time to find. But my father's condition can't wait. So..."

So what, Guan Meiqing couldn't bring herself to say. Not being able to pay and still wanting to ask for help was indeed awkward!

As for whether Lin Yihang's acupuncture was worth the price, did that even need to be said?

Her father was on the brink of death, and Doctor Lin's acupuncture had saved him... The value of life couldn't be measured in material terms.

"That's a bit of a problem," Lin Yihang mused, and Guan Meiqing immediately looked anxious.

She was asking for help to save her father's life; she couldn't afford to be nervous!

"Here's what I suggest. Find the ginseng root first. If you can't get a hundred-year-old one, a slightly younger one will do. I'll write a list of other herbs. Buy them and bring them to me. I'll treat your father again in a week."

Lin Yihang finally decided he couldn't let someone die, of course, the more important reason was that he needed a lot of herbs for his upcoming body cultivation, and his current wealth couldn't cover the cost.

"Thank you, Doctor Lin! I'm truly grateful!" Guan Meiqing thanked him sincerely.

Doctor Lin was truly a benevolent and skilled physician, willing to help even without the full payment... The beautiful director was deeply moved.

Swish!

Lin Yihang turned, opened the window, and borrowed paper and a pen from a nearby classmate, quickly writing out a list.

Doctor Lin was a person of high status; his fees couldn't be too meager. The herbs on the list, while not as precious as a hundred-year-old ginseng root, were still very valuable.

Moreover, Lin Yihang prescribed a month's worth of herbs, which would cost no less than a million yuan to buy.

Guan Meiqing glanced at the list and put it away without changing her expression.

Clearly, she was also wealthy—her father's long illness had made her familiar with the value of these herbs, so she wasn't a novice in this area.

"Alright, that's it! You can go now!"

When Principal Li saw the conversation end and came to ask Director Guan about lunch arrangements, he happened to see Lin Yihang wave his hand and say these words.

Principal Li almost stumbled and fell.

Director Guan had a humble and grateful expression, "Thank you so much."

It was "you" with respect, not the informal "you," and Principal Li heard it clearly.

This young Lin... It seems I underestimated him! Principal Li thought to himself.

"Oh, there's one more thing. Doctor He admires you greatly and wants to visit you. However, he didn't want to disturb you, so he didn't come over. What do you think?"

Just as Principal Li steadied himself, Guan Meiqing's words almost made him fall again.

What's going on?

Doctor He? Could it be the director of the First Hospital?

Not wanting to disturb... What's this all about?

Principal Li felt his mind was in a whirl. One thing was clear: this Lin Yihang, this young Lin, was a big shot, a big shot beyond imagination! Most likely, he was a young member of a prominent family sent to gain experience! He mustn't offend him. Not only mustn't he offend him, but he must also try to befriend him.

Principal Li was in his forties and had been a principal for three or four years, with a lot of room for advancement and higher aspirations. But he lacked the connections.

Having such a big shot in his school and only now realizing it was already a mistake. If he couldn't take advantage of this opportunity... He couldn't forgive himself!

"Um, it's a bit inconvenient for me. Tell him not to come. Since your father is at the First Hospital, we'll meet eventually," Lin Yihang continued in his calm tone. Principal Li was no longer shocked but found it natural... After all, he was a big shot!

"Alright, I'll pass the message."

As Director Guan left, Principal Li naturally escorted her with great respect. As for young Lin, who had been in the class for so long without anyone noticing, it was clear he didn't want his identity revealed. Principal Li didn't dare to approach him and ruin his plans.

Lin Yihang gave Principal Li a curious look, as well as the young teacher, Xiao Zhao, who was behind him... She had been called to the office by Principal Li during the break. In such a short time, he wondered what Principal Li had done to her. She had entered the office with a confident stride, but now she was sweating and looked somewhat dejected... Principals were indeed formidable!

Lin Yihang thought to himself. Even someone like the English teacher, who was so strict, could be handled. No wonder even elementary school students weren't spared.

Little did he know, Teacher Xiao Zhao was now full of resentment. Principal Li had called her in to ask about Lin Yihang's detailed information, but she knew nothing. After a few questions, Principal Li understood the situation and lost all interest in her. She was sweating from nervousness!

During this break, Lin Yihang was bound to be the center of attention again. When he returned to the classroom, all the students' gazes, intentionally or unintentionally, focused on him.

Today's Lin Yihang had given everyone too many shocks, completely overturning his previous image as a wimp.

First, he beat up Xu Le when he entered the classroom, showing his strength!

Now, a beautiful and influential person had come to see him, and her attitude clearly showed great respect and even a bit of flattery.

What kind of background did Lin Yihang have?

This was no longer just a concern for Yang Tingting and Lu Man; most of the students in the classroom were whispering about it.

There are people who are naturally excellent, shining wherever they go, becoming the center of attention.

Lin Yihang was undoubtedly such a person. In Longhu Mountain, he was a talented cultivator; on Earth, in a world where it was unknown if there were other cultivators, he was like a tiger entering the mountains or a dragon meeting the clouds!

Lin Yihang's rise was unstoppable.
