Starting with a cub, the superpower boss becomes the richest man by lying flat

Chapter 54: How long do you plan to let me be your cook?
"What's going on?" Cui Shi moved closer to Lin Xin and asked in a low voice.

"Her daughter got hit and probably had a miscarriage. The village doctor can't treat her, and her mother-in-law doesn't want to spend the money to go to town to find a doctor," Lin Xin glanced at him. "You've walked right into a trap."

"Ah?" Cui Shi was stunned for a moment. Even though he was knowledgeable and experienced, he had never encountered such a bizarre thing.

As if he wasn't shocked enough, Lin Xin nodded to the side. Cui Shi looked over and saw a fair-skinned girl staring at Meng Yichen with red eyes. "What's wrong with her?"

"She just shouted in the crowd that you are Lin Nan's master and asked me to find you to save people." Lin Xin quickly repeated the story in very simple language. She had to be quick because He Luan'er was already walking towards them with tears in her eyes.

"Should I get treatment or not?" Cui Shi asked Lin Xin while twirling his beard.

Lin Xin shrugged and spread her hands. "That's not my business. You can handle it yourself."

After saying that, she took a step aside as if to avoid suspicion, keeping a distance from Cui Shi.

"Hey, you little bitch, why are you hiding?"

Cui Shi knew why after asking, because the little girl who had just stared at Meng Yichen was now standing in front of him, holding up her skirt and performing an aristocratic etiquette that was not appropriate for her. Then, she said in a pretentious voice:
"This must be Lin Nan's master, right? Could you please save his aunt? Aunt Lin San is dying. As a doctor, you must have noble medical ethics and would never stand by and watch someone die like some people would, right?"

Cui Shi had seen all kinds of situations before. He saw through the little girl's tricks almost immediately. While highlighting his kindness and politeness, he also pulled Lin Xin down. Was it to destroy the image of the little girl in his heart?

Cui Shi shook his head in his heart, but finally he still walked to Zhou's side with the medicine box. It was not because of what He Luan'er said, but simply because he was a doctor and he couldn't just sit there and watch a life disappear before his eyes.

He Luan'er didn't understand what he meant, and thought that he was touched by her politeness and kindness. She gave Lin Xin a smug look, but at the same time, she didn't forget to show herself to Meng Yichen. She ran up to him and performed the same awkward aristocratic salute, then lifted her skirt and chased after Cui Shi.

Meng Yichen was baffled by her. He turned around and asked Lin Xin in confusion, "Is there something wrong with her...?" While speaking, he pointed to his temple.

Lin Xin was amused by him and shook her head: "I don't know either."

Meng Yichen was delighted to see that Lin Xin was willing to talk to him nicely, and a heavy burden on his mind fell to the ground. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly felt an itch in his throat and started coughing violently and uncontrollably. Lin Xin noticed that the handkerchief he used to cover his mouth was stained with red spots.

She used her special ability to sense it and couldn't help but frowned. His vitality was even weaker than last time. She was afraid that he would need to rest for a long time.

Lin Xin frowned and carefully recalled the plot, her eyes suddenly widened. She said that she always felt a little familiar when she heard this name before. Meng Yichen, the youngest son of the imperial merchant Meng family, had been weak and sickly since childhood, and was treated like the apple of his eye by his family.

He has an older brother, Meng Yixuan, who is a general and also a staunch supporter of the prince. He was once injured and unconscious for a long time. Although he woke up later, he was left with serious sequelae.

When the prince was in decline, the Northern Rong cavalry invaded the border. In order to keep the military power in the hands of the prince, Meng Yixuan and Mo Ziyuan went to the battlefield together. In the end, one died and the other was injured. The one who died was Meng Yixuan and the one who was injured was Mo Ziyuan.

His elderly parents could not bear the blow and passed away one after another within a few years, leaving Meng Yichen alone.

Despite his frail body, he joined the Third Prince's camp. With his exceptional intelligence, he quickly became his advisor, earning the right to follow him. The former prince's followers loathed him, and his brothers, who had once cherished him as a younger brother, became strangers. Meng Yichen endured all of this silently until his brothers left one by one for various reasons.

When the news came from the Mo family that Mo Ziyuan had passed away due to a recurrence of an old injury, he was in the third prince's study discussing how to deal the final blow to the prince. At that time, Meng Yichen had already gained the trust of the third prince, and there were only the two of them in the study.

On that day, Meng Yichen used all his strength to insert his hairpin into the third prince's throat, and at the same time, the sword in the third prince's hand pierced his chest.

Tsk tsk, Lin Xin finished her recollection and clicked her tongue twice in disgust. When she looked at Meng Yichen again, she felt inexplicably sad. She didn't know whether she should feel aggrieved or not for being an undercover agent like him!
After thinking for a moment, she stepped forward and raised her hand to hold his arm. A trace of wood energy slowly flowed into Meng Yichen's body from the point where they touched, slightly repairing his already broken body. "You'd better come in and sit down! I'm afraid you'll cough up your internal organs if you keep going like this."

Meng Yichen smiled and didn't care. He dragged his weak body to the yard and sat down with her strength.

"Yi Chen, what's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Ling Qing walked in with a bag of rice. Seeing him sitting limply, she hurried over to ask.

"It's okay, I'm much better now." Meng Yichen replied. He indeed felt much better. His chest no longer felt stuffy as if a huge stone weighing a thousand pounds was pressing on it, and his throat no longer felt like it was blocked by a ball of cotton when he breathed.

Ling Qing carefully observed his face and found that it was indeed better than when he came. He felt relieved, patted his shoulder and went back to moving things.

Lin Xin looked at the various daily necessities spread out on the floor, helplessly holding her forehead with her hand, and looked at Meng Yichen unkindly: "You brought so many things here, how long do you plan to let me be your cook?"

Meng Yichen coughed awkwardly, "Well, these are for you and your sister."

He looked at Lin Xin's obviously unconvinced look, coughed lightly, and said, "Ahem, we've already planned to build a house in the village, at the foot of the mountain not far from your home. We can be your neighbors then, so... so..."

"So when you have time, you can come to my house for a meal, right?" Lin Xin finished his words.

"Cough cough..." What answered her was a series of coughs from Meng Yichen.

Lin Xin:...

She walked into the house, so there's no need for me to waste time talking to you. I'd rather spend my time interacting with my cute little brother!

As a result, as soon as she entered the door, she met Lin Nan's bright eyes, "Sister, are Master and Master here?"

The most painful thing in the world is being stabbed by someone close to you. Lin Xin gritted her teeth and nodded, "Yes! They're here. Is Nan Nan happy?"

Hearing the gnashing of teeth in her sister's voice, Lin Nan reacted quickly and hugged Lin Xin's neck. "Nan Nan still loves you best! If you're unhappy, it's okay for Nan Nan to ignore Master and Master!"

Lin Xin: ······You are really good at shifting the blame!
