Luo Shiping smiled and said, "You too. I remember someone mocked and bullied me back then, and you chivalrously stepped in to help me. I've always remembered that kindness."
Ye Tian chuckled, "A small matter."
Luo Shiping asked, "Ye Tian, are you here to report in too?"
Ye Tian replied, "I'm accompanying Ziyi to take a look."
Luo Shiping beamed, "Oh, you two started dating in high school and managed to stick together until today. That's rare." Su Dan Novel Network
Lin Ziyi smiled, "Manager Luo, shall we go upstairs to chat?"
Luo Shiping nodded, "Our colleagues are waiting to welcome you. Let's go up."
Upon reaching the eighth floor, Luo Shiping said, "Ye Tian, wait in my office for a bit. Once Ziyi is familiar with her colleagues, I'll come over to chat with you."
He didn't know that Ye Tian was the company's founder and major shareholder, thinking he was just accompanying Lin Ziyi.
Ye Tian didn't explain, saying, "Alright, I'll wait for you in the office."
He went to Luo Shiping's office and found it furnished in a business-like manner, with a large desk, a massive bookshelf behind it, and a sofa set nearby.
Ye Tian's gaze shifted to a photo on the desk. It showed a man and a woman; the man was Luo Shiping, and the woman was an ordinary-looking woman, likely his wife or girlfriend.
After a few minutes, Luo Shiping walked in with two cups of coffee, smiling, "Ye Tian, please sit."
They sat on the sofa, and Luo Shiping said, "Ziyi is still as excellent as ever. I'd heard the boss was going to parachute in a sales director, but I didn't expect it to be her."
Ye Tian replied, "Yes, Ziyi has always been very diligent in her work."
Luo Shiping nodded, "By the way, what are you doing now?"
Ye Tian hadn't found a job yet. He smiled and said, "I haven't found a job yet, I'm staying at home."
Luo Shiping said, "Oh." He continued, "Ye Tian, a man must have a career. Otherwise, you won't be able to keep a beauty like Lin Ziyi."
Ye Tian smiled and said nothing.
They hadn't seen each other for many years, and their common conversation revolved only around their school days. After a brief chat, Luo Shiping said, "Ye Tian, I have something else to attend to. Please sit here for a while."
Ye Tian had other matters to attend to, so he said, "I won't sit."
After escorting Ye Tian to the elevator, Luo Shiping said, "Ye Tian, let's catch up properly another day."
The moment the elevator doors closed, Luo Shiping's smile vanished. A hint of mockery appeared at the corner of his lips. "This kind of person from the bottom of society, how could Lin Ziyi possibly fall for him?"
Leaving the office building, Ye Tian sent Lin Ziyi a text message, saying he was heading to the factory first and would pick her up in the afternoon.
At the same moment, in a residential complex in Haicheng, Zhu Hongyan returned home after an academic visit out of the province. As soon as she opened the door, she saw an old man sitting in the living room, drinking.
Zhu Hongyan smiled, "Dad, where's Mom?"
The old man had white hair, was over seventy years old, and was slightly overweight. He was a retired cadre named Zhu Shengjun.
Zhu Shengjun smiled, "Your mother went visiting neighbors. Xiao Yan, the medicinal wine you brewed is really good. I've only been drinking it for three days, and my blood sugar has dropped. I can eat noodles now without any issues."
Zhu Hongyan was startled, "The medicinal wine I brewed?"
She quickly went to the table and saw a glass bottle on it. It was the 300ml experimental medicinal liquid she had taken from the laboratory!
She was shocked, "Dad, who told you to drink it?"
Zhu Shengjun chuckled, "Didn't you say it was a drug your team developed to treat diabetes? I saw you brought it, so I decided to test its effectiveness. I must say, this medicine is quite miraculous."
Zhu Hongyan's heart skipped a beat. She quickly took out a blood glucose meter to measure her father's blood sugar. The result was 5.7, within the normal range. At this time of day, her father's blood sugar was usually around 8.something, and sometimes as high as 10.something.
Seeing that there was still plenty of the medicinal liquid left, she asked, "Dad, do you drink it every day?"
Zhu Shengjun replied, "Yes, a small cup every morning and evening. I just finished my second dose."
Zhu Hongyan took a deep breath and said, "Dad, please don't drink any more for now. I'll get you better medicine later."
With that, she rushed back to the laboratory, her mind in turmoil.
"His medicine actually works! And its effects are miraculous! Could he really be a divine doctor?" Thinking of this, she dialed Ye Tian's number, wanting to ask for clarification.
