The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 59 A Heart of Stone, Unperturbed by Mediocrity

"Mr. Wen, where are we going?"

Lin Chen picked up Wen Yu'an at Yu'an Pavilion and drove forward as Wen Yu'an had instructed, their destination being a five-star resort hotel.

"The patient came from out of town. Tonight, the patient's grandfather is holding a banquet at a hotel and invited me. I heard that he also invited the famous doctor He Chenggang..."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Are you preparing for a consultation with renowned doctors?"

Wen Yu'an's expression was somewhat complicated: "He Chenggang is also one of the four famous doctors. Because of academic disputes, we have had several conflicts and have never gotten along. I originally did not want to get involved, but I owed a patient's grandfather a favor in the past, so I could not refuse."

Lin Chen chuckled and said, "Seeing patients is fine, but we're all renowned doctors, and none of us are willing to concede to anyone else. So, if we have differing opinions, whose opinion should we listen to?"

Wen Yu'an smiled wryly and said, "That's what I was worried about. The patient is a child who is less than two years old and cannot speak, so I asked Mr. Lin to come along to avoid any mistakes. Adults can argue, but children are innocent."

Lin Chen nodded: "Okay, I'll help you take a look."

Half an hour later, the vehicle arrived at the hotel.

Wen Yu'an presented an invitation, but Lin Chen was stopped because Lin Chen did not have an invitation.

Wen Yu'an was quite displeased. "You invited me to help treat your family member's illness, and I brought someone with me, but you actually stopped me from coming in?"
Why don't you just stop me too? I'm not really keen on coming anyway.

Although she was angry, she couldn't just turn around and leave since she was already at the door. Wen Yu'an patiently made a phone call, and soon a man who looked like a secretary came out. Only then did the gatekeeper let her through.

"Mr. Wen, the child cried for a long time and has just fallen asleep. The boss wants him to rest for a while and asks Mr. Wen to attend the banquet first. We can have the consultation after the banquet."

Wen Yu'an frowned, but still nodded: "Okay!"

After the secretary left, Wen Yu'an and Lin Chen found a place to sit down. Lin Chen looked around and everything was so magnificent.

"Who is this guy? He's so arrogant. The doctor came, and he just stood there, not even showing his face."

Wen Yu'an smiled bitterly: "In the eyes of the powerful and wealthy, doctors are all there to serve them. Even if they are polite on the surface, how can they truly value them in their hearts?"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "That's true. In their eyes, it's just a matter of price. If one hundred isn't enough, try five million. With such a high price, what doctor wouldn't be tempted and wouldn't give it their all?"

Wen Yu'an laughed and said, "Wealth can move people's hearts. How many people can do what Mr. Lin does? A few days ago, Mo Junwu came to my door in person to express his gratitude and then gave me five million. After I refused, he gave me a ginseng root that was at least two hundred years old. I really couldn't refuse, so I had to accept it. My medical skills are not up to par, yet I still accepted such a generous gift. I am really ashamed."

Lin Chen smiled and replied casually, "If I accepted it, I accepted it. Don't worry about it." Guests arrived one after another, the men dressed impeccably and the women adorned with jewels, vying for attention.

Wen Yu'an was dressed well, in a white Tang suit, and given his age, he had a certain air about him. Lin Chen, on the other hand, wearing a black T-shirt and jeans, looked rather out of place. Many people cast surprised and disdainful glances at him, as if he were a country bumpkin who had infiltrated a royal banquet.

Wen Yu'an apologized, "Mr. Lin, it was all my oversight. I originally thought we were just going to see a doctor and could leave afterward without attending the banquet, so I didn't remind you to change your clothes..."

Lin Chen waved his hand and laughed, "A person with a strong heart will not be bothered by the opinions of mediocre people. Even if you remind me, I will still be dressed like this. I am not the same kind of person as them, so why should I humiliate myself to cater to them?"

Wen Yu'an was stunned for a moment, then looked into Lin Chen's clear eyes, his old face filled with shame: "I was too shallow!"

As the two were talking, a group of people walked in through the door: two middle-aged couples, plus a young man and a young woman.

Lin Chen glanced at it, and his gaze immediately froze.

Gu Yuexi!
Gu Yuexi was wearing a blue off-shoulder evening gown today, with a diamond necklace around her fair neck. The pendant at the bottom of the necklace was hidden in her breasts, attracting attention.

Gu Yuexi was accompanied by Wu Jiajun, who was dressed in a white suit. His image was not bad, but he always gave people a slacker vibe.

Wu Jiajun spoke to Gu Yuexi with great enthusiasm, but Gu Yuexi kept a long face, her expression seemingly conveying "Go away, don't talk to me."

Lin Chen turned around and smiled, "Mr. Wen, is the patient's grandfather Liu Zhenhao, the real estate tycoon of Linhai City?"

Wen Yu'an looked somewhat surprised: "How did you know?"

Lin Chen gestured with his chin towards the people who had just entered: "When I went to give Grandpa Gu acupuncture, the Gu family mentioned it."

Wen Yu'an suddenly realized: "Yes, it's him."

Lin Chen smiled. What a coincidence!

Gu Yuexi was forced to work tonight anyway. As soon as she entered, she was going to find a quiet corner to stay in. Looking around, she spotted Lin Chen sitting in the corner.

Dressed in a black T-shirt and jeans, he stood out so much among the elegantly dressed crowd!
Gu Yuexi's eyes widened suddenly, her gaze filled with surprise, and a smile instantly spread across her beautiful face, like a flower in full bloom, her beauty beyond compare.

"Lin Chen!"
