X-ray Eyes Little Wild Doctor-Chapter 114 - 109: Encountering An Acquaintance

However, there are exceptions, and many high-level white-collar workers also live here. Although they can’t compare to the company bosses with assets exceeding a hundred million, they are at least individuals with savings in the seven figures, far exceeding the average comfortable living standard.

It was the time for morning commutes, and a stream of supercars drove out from Jin Guan City. The most basic model among them was the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, followed by slightly better ones like Porsches and Jaguars, and then the even more upscale vehicles like Maybachs, Aston Martins, and Lamborghinis.

In such a community, if you drove out in a Mini or Volkswagen Beetle, people would certainly treat you like a nanny of some wealthy family.

Unfortunately, the car Ye Tian was driving today was exactly that kind of "nanny car," a Mini.

When the Mini approached the community exit, a Mercedes-Benz happened to be coming in. The exit was narrow, only allowing for one car to pass at a time.

This kind of situation was common, happening in all residential areas, especially during rush hours. Normally, the car returning would yield to the car leaving, after all, the latter was in a hurry to get to work, whereas you were already at the community gate and could afford to wait a while.

Seeing that the Mercedes-Benz S-Class didn’t move, Ye Tian honked her horn politely to signal for him to make way.

The owner of the Mercedes immediately got out of his car, looked at the shabby Mini in front of him, and snapped angrily, "Get that damn nanny car out of the way! You’re holding me up from picking up my boss. Can you afford the responsibility of that?"

Ye Tian got angry in an instant and got out of the car to argue, but Yun Xinyan held him back and said, "You’re too impulsive. Let me handle this. We all live in the same community, and it’s not necessary to make things so rigid with our neighbors."

Yun Xinyan opened the door and stepped out, saying to the man, "Can you please make way for us? We are also in a hurry to get to work. Let’s make it convenient for each other."

"Why should I make way for you? I would make way for homeowners, not some crappy nanny car." The owner of the Mercedes was unreasonably arrogant.

Yun Xinyan glanced at her watch; it was almost seven o’clock. As the company president, she couldn’t set an example by being late. It was only a matter of who would go first after all, and yielding to him was no big deal. It wasn’t worth arguing over who was right and who was wrong, as it would set a bad example.

"Ye Tian, reverse the car, let him go first," Yun Xinyan said with integrity, refusing to stoop to the man’s level.

"My dear wife is so magnanimous, I love it. Alright, this time I’ll listen to you," Ye Tian didn’t say much else and immediately shifted into reverse to make way.

Yun Xinyan stood at the entrance of the community, gathering her stray hair behind her ears.

From behind the flowerbed, a portly man came running, drenched in sweat and wearing a T-shirt, apparently out jogging to lose weight. Upon seeing this fat man, the Mercedes driver stopped the car and stepped out respectfully, asking, "President Liu, the car is ready whenever you are."

The fat man nodded, gave a few instructions to the driver, and then noticing Yun Xinyan standing nearby, immediately showed a respectful demeanor, hurried over, and bowed repeatedly, saying, "President Yun, how do you do. I am Liu Mingda of Hongsheng Group. Please lend your support to our project, it’s a massive endeavor worth hundreds of millions, and we are relying on you, President Yun. I’ll have to invite you to dinner sometime."

"Liu Mingda? Oh, now I remember," Yun Xinyan had barely any recollection of the man, but she was familiar with his proposal. She said, "I’ve seen your plan, and it’s well done, but there are still some flaws that need further improvement."

"Where does it need improvement? Please give me some guidance, President Yun. I, Liu Mingda, will immediately instruct my staff to make the changes right away, first thing in the morning or even overnight," Liu Mingda responded with a sincere expression, earnestly seeking advice like a student in a classroom.

Yun Xinyan briefly shared her opinions but before she could say much, Ye Tian came over, took hold of her hand, and said, "Didn’t that driver call our car a ’nanny car’? Have you forgotten? Why bother with their trifling matters? Haven’t you been scolded enough? Come on, let’s get in the car!"

Ye Tian swiftly pulled Yun Xinyan into the car, stepped on the gas, and the Mini shot out. Liu Mingda was left scolding his driver, "However you managed to offend President Yun, you had better find a way to make it right, or don’t bother coming to work anymore!"

Yun Xinyan merely smiled lightly, thinking to herself that Ye Tian really knew how to hold a grudge.

The Mini arrived at Emperor Plaza, and the two of them rode the elevator from the underground parking garage straight to the headquarters of their company. They were a bit late today, and many employees had already started work.

The security officer Gu Lei was on duty at the entrance when he saw the domineering CEO Yun Xinyan walk past accompanied side by side by Ye Tian, chatting and laughing together, clearly more than just amicably acquainted.

"Good morning, President Yun!" The young man, Gu Lei, snapped to attention and saluted respectfully as the beautiful CEO passed by.

"Good morning to you, too," Yun Xinyan was quite pleased with this young security guard; he arrived early for work and showed her the right amount of respect. If he continued to perform well, she would consider a suitable promotion for him.

Ye Tian seemed to read Yun Xinyan’s mind and clapped Gu Lei on the shoulder, "Brother, work hard. The future is full of opportunities," then entered the security room, leaving Gu Lei with a bewildered expression.

After changing into his uniform and equipping his rubber baton and radio, Ye Tian left the security room. As he was passing through the lobby, someone walked briskly toward him and bumped right into him.

"Who the hell are you? Blind?" Yun Feng frowned in annoyance, only to realize that it was Ye Tian who had bumped into him, causing his expression to sour immediately.

Yun Feng was in a terrible mood that day. Yun Xinyan had signed three major projects without his approval, and his reason for coming to the company was to demand an explanation. He needed to know if he was still the legal representative of the firm.

However, as soon as he had left the lobby, he was hit by a security guard, and it hurt pretty badly. He couldn’t just swallow his anger.

But when Yun Feng realized that the man was Ye Tian, various complicated feelings arose within him.

Not long before, he had heard about the downfall of the Du and Niu families, prominent families of Jiang City, each with deep roots and substantial wealth, controlling almost half of Jiang City’s financial world.

Yet they were eliminated overnight, and their family members vanished without a trace. Such a brutal extermination was staggering news indeed.

Moreover, Yun Feng had gleaned from the grapevine that the person responsible for taking down the two families was Ye Tian!

Although the truth of the news had not been verified yet, Yun Feng was a clever man, and preferred to believe rather than risk offending such a terrifying entity.

Ye Tian frowned, "You bump into me and you still think you’re right?"

Yun Feng didn’t say much, with an ashen face he left, heading straight for the CEO’s office. Right now, he didn’t want to start an argument with Ye Tian, whether or not Ye Tian was that terrifying entity.

"Had I known it was this old bastard, I should have put in more effort just now and sent him straight to the hospital."

Watching Yun Feng rush into the CEO’s office, Ye Tianxin felt displeased. Without asking, he knew this guy was definitely going to trouble Xinyan.

This old profit-seeker, if he wasn’t Yun Xinyan’s father, Ye Tian would have dealt with him long ago, he wouldn’t have left him around to cause trouble for others.

Flicking non-existent dust off his shoulder, Ye Tian snorted coldly and swaggered to Gu Lei’s side, as on the duty roster, it was Ye Tian and Gu Lei’s turn to stand guard today.

Guard duty actually meant idle chatter. Ye Tian, with his legs crossed, began boasting to Gu Lei about his medical skills, bragging how he had cured an infertile woman with just a few tries.

"That young woman’s child wouldn’t happen to be yours, right?" Gu Lei had a flash of inspiration and added, "Actually, it’s not the young woman who’s infertile but her husband."

"Get lost, I’m all about saving lives and curing diseases, not as sinister as you say," Ye Tian shot him a glance.

Amidst the laughter and talk, Ye Tian suddenly frowned, feeling a strange vibration inside him. A sense of foreboding surged within him, his intuition telling him that the changes in the Crystal Ball were getting worse.

"Leizi, I’m feeling a bit unwell. You keep watch for me; I’m going to the bathroom."

"Sure thing, Brother Tian, you can count on me."

Ye Tian furrowed his brows, rose to find a secluded spot, and while passing the CEO’s office, he overheard Yun Feng arguing with Yun Xinyan.

However, Ye Tian didn’t go in. With the Crystal Ball undergoing changes, it was urgent to check it first. Yun Feng’s matter would have to wait.

Atop the rooftop of the Hongsheng Group headquarters, Ye Tian sat alone in meditation, focusing his mind and observing the changes within him.

As expected, the Crystal Ball had undergone a new upheaval.

The blood color inside it had grown even more intense, and both the amplitude and frequency of its pulsing had increased.

In the past, although the Crystal Ball would also pulse, it was so slight that one couldn’t notice it without close observation, and it definitely wouldn’t affect normal life.

But now, even without monitoring it, Ye Tian could feel the Crystal Ball palpably pulsing, severely affecting his life.

"What in the world is this?" Ye Tian frowned. "It seems, a trip to the hospital is necessary."

With Ye Tian’s current abilities, he couldn’t see the details of the Crystal Ball. After all, he was an ordinary person, not a deity. If he wanted to see what the Crystal Ball looked like within him, he could only resort to modern medicine.

Without further hesitation, Ye Tian went straight to Bai Lan’s office, asked for a leave from this minister, saying he needed to take care of some personal matters.

"Seeing you in such a rush, you wouldn’t happen to be looking for a f*ck buddy now, would you?" Bai Lan teased on purpose.

"Aren’t you my f*ck buddy? That little black underwear’s not bad, oh, wait till I take care of you later," Ye Tian retorted.

After leaving Bai Lan’s office, Ye Tian went directly to the underground garage, started up the mini, and drove to the city hospital via the outer ring road.

It was Monday and the city hospital was crowded with patients. Ye Tian queued up for registration, paid the fees, first had a CT scan, which revealed nothing. With no other choice, he made another payment and had an MRI. The images were much clearer this time, but still, no Crystal.

Standing in the bustling registration hall, Ye Tian’s brows were tightly knitted, his heart filled with unease.

"What exactly is this Crystal? It’s too strange!"

After pondering for a long time, Ye Tian still couldn’t figure it out. Even modern medicine was stumped, and he could only feel helpless.

In fact, Ye Tian also understood that such matters couldn’t be resolved overnight.

Tossing the outpatient card in the trash, Ye Tian walked straight out of the hospital. As he passed the inpatient department, he heard a commotion. Turning his head for a look, his eyes suddenly lit up.

By then, quite a crowd had gathered at the inpatient department. A patient in hospital attire was getting handsy with a nurse, looking extremely lecherous.

Ye Tian was familiar with the man; they had had a conflict just the day before.

"Heh, ran into an acquaintance. Now this is getting interesting," Ye Tian’s lips curled into a mocking smile as he stepped toward the scene.
