After finishing the treatment, Lu Qi picked up the bloody gauze and suddenly heard the person on the bed asking a question.

"The doctor said that he and I are not the same type of people..." Lu Qi looked in the direction of the voice and saw Pei Yao with one hand on the back of his head, leaning leisurely on the bed, as if he mentioned it casually.

He paused and looked at her again, saying, "You don't even know me, how do you know we are not the same kind of people?"

Lu Qi calmed down, retracted his gaze, and replied calmly, "No need to understand. It's different, I can see it at a glance. You made a fortune from war, you are high and mighty, and you spend money like water."

Lu Qi's answer made Pei Yao laugh. When he heard her say that in the morning, he was in a trance for a moment and had no idea what she was thinking.

I thought she had someone she liked in the past three years.

Or maybe there are other expectations.

I didn't stop her from leaving, and even thought about letting her go.

However, after she parked downstairs for five hours, she somehow hit the airbag with her arm.

Pei Yao rolled over and got out of bed, holding her newly bandaged arm, his eyebrows raised slightly: "Oh, so doctors also look at people with tinted glasses. They judge people by appearance."

Lu Qi's heart skipped a beat when she heard that. She seemed to have thrown this person into the trash can from the very beginning.

Judging people by their appearance is unfair to her.

Lu Qi argued, "Judging people by appearance is something you only use when you see someone who is not good-looking, and you don't belong to that category."

"So which category do I belong to?"

The exquisitely carved people are like the beautiful scenery that the Creator generously enjoys on earth. Even in the eyes of their enemies, they would say that they are too good-looking.

Lu Qi looked at his picturesque features, tilted his head, and resisted the temptation: "The second-generation rich are like that, they don't care about other people's lives."

She blamed him for not leaving a good impression on her at first, and now she was holding a grudge against him. Pei Yao understood why she rejected him.

Don't argue. The more you argue, the more annoyed she will be. She only believes in her own feelings. Take it slow.

Pei Yao smiled cheerfully and changed the subject: "But I'll have to trouble the doctor during this period. You can see that my medical team is not up to par."

Lu Qi paused, feeling a little conflicted, and looked at the wound he had bandaged.

The final struggle between money and humanity.

He has to come to change the medicine every day. Every time he comes, he has his own money, and he is not short of money.

But this is inevitable, I have to keep in contact with him.

Seeing her hesitation, Pei Yao buttoned his coat and spoke casually.

"Doctors are kindhearted. Our country's Hua Tuo treated Cao Cao when he was mad. Even if I were an unforgivable villain, doctor, you would not save me. Are you worthy of the oath you swore to the snake wrapped around your cane?"

Lu Qi blinked: "I have never sworn an oath with the snake around a cane." The snake around a cane is the WHO flag, a sacred symbol in the hearts of doctors.

Pei Yao couldn't even button his cuffs properly. "How did you get into the medical team?"

"It's my intelligence." Lu Qi replied confidently.

Pei Yao fastened the last button and agreed, "I just happen to need a smart and beautiful doctor to take care of me."

Pei Yao had already reached the door when he finished speaking. He turned back and said, "I'll come back in two days. Doctor, you've worked hard. Go to bed early."

Just like that, Lu Qi was not given another chance to reject it.

By the time she reached the door, the man had already strode away, followed by Simon, who was jogging behind him.

"Strange, who is the boss between you and the group president?"

-

In the following days, Pei Yao came on time every two days. To be honest, as a patient, he was the most self-conscious one she had ever seen.

We chat from time to time, mostly about work.

For example, the value of some medicine.

He acted like he was there to learn something, so much so that Lu Qi thought he was trying to steal someone's skills.

But this guy knows a lot, after all, he is also involved in the medical industry, so chatting with him is effortless.

After talking about her for a long time, Lu Qi occasionally asked about his affairs.

After getting a vague understanding of him, I realized that he was the big boss behind Tantari.

It’s amazing that he’s so young.

However, Tantari at that time was not as big as it would be seven years later. It was still in the climbing stage and had even faced bankruptcy before. Pei Yao took over when it was about to die and revived it.

That's why Simon worshipped him as a god.

About a month later.

Lu Qi saw some news in the hospital lobby——

[**The reactionary armed forces have declared their surrender. Their leader was once a member of the XX terrorist group. A month ago, they sent people to infiltrate Dubai and launch an assassination attack on the Tantari Group...]

[The Tantari Group has previously negotiated with the XX organization many times, providing medical and military support to the ** region...]

After six months of turmoil and war, the ** region has finally had a rare opportunity to respite in peace.

Yesterday, a commercial shipping route between the Red Bay and South Africa was opened, and the first Tantari merchant ship arrived in South Africa. Tantari's head, Simon, stated that the company will provide a new energy construction and development base for South Africa.

Lu Qi stood in front of the TV for more than half an hour, watching the news reports one by one.

A little stunned: "So, this person was assassinated and injured because he did good things."

Just as he was thinking, a notification rang in Lu Qi's headset: "Doctor Fatima, your patient in bed 11 has woken up. Please come and take a look."

Bed number 11 was occupied by Pei Yao's bodyguard, Rashid.

Lu Qi replied, turned around to look at the entertainment news that was already playing behind him, and ran towards the ward.

"Beep beep..."

After a while, the instrument in front of the bed responded well. Lu Qi put away the examination equipment and comforted Rashid.

"You've recovered well. You have a strong will. Good job. Keep up the good work."

In fact, Rashid had woken up three weeks ago, but he was still not conscious and needed intensive care. It was not until today that he was completely freed from the ventilator and was able to speak a little.

Rashid gratefully chatted with Lu Qi for a while, mostly talking about his physical condition.

Just before leaving, Lu Qi suddenly asked, "Can I ask why you're willing to risk your life to be Mr. Pei's bodyguard?"

I thought, maybe the money that man gave was too much, and Rashid was risking his life to make money for his family.

Unexpectedly, Rashid replied: "Sir, you saved my life when you were on a mission..."

After listening to him for a long time, when Simon came to his senses, he had already received the message from Lu Qi and came to visit.

Lu Qi walked out of the ward and looked at Pei Yao standing outside the ward door, and looked at him again.

He looks like a playboy, but he was a special forces soldier, saved UN hostages, and ran through gunfire...

He retired from the business for unknown reasons, but he still controlled the top of the business world and was able to inadvertently maintain stability in the war-torn areas with a wave of his hand.

If you say he is a good person, he is not entirely good; if you say he is a bad person, he is not entirely bad.

Lu Qi asked softly: "Why don't you go in?"

"I'm not here to see him." Pei Yao said calmly, leaning his back against the wall and looking at her sideways.

Lu Qi pursed her lips and said, "Why are you so hypocritical? Don't you care about how he is recovering?"

"I'm not saying one thing and thinking another." Pei Yao replied straightforwardly, not sounding like a lie. He whispered, "I believe in Doctor Fatima."

Lu Qi's heart skipped a beat when he heard the simple word "believe".

An uncontrollable smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He lowered his head and looked away, then asked, "Then what are you doing here?"

"Change the dressing, for the last time tonight." Pei Yao raised his arm and spoke gently. His mood didn't seem to lift much, as if he was hiding something.

Lu Qi was in a flash, time passed by so quickly.

Soon, she took him to the VIP room and applied medicine. In fact, he was almost healed. She re-mixed the reagent and the scar on his arm was almost gone.

How did it heal so quickly? My skin looks like it was naturally nourished.

I watched him calmly put on his coat and prepare to leave without making a sound.

Lu Qi's mind moved, and he took a deep breath: "Aren't you going to treat me to a meal?"

"Hmm?" Pei Yao paused.

This month I have been asking her out for dinner all the time, but she just refuses, saying she is too busy.

Looking at her quietly: "Are you free today?"

Lu Qi bit her lip and nodded: "Well, I still have two hours before get off work, and I will have a day off tomorrow."

As soon as he finished speaking, Pei Yao smiled. His relaxed brows were like flowing water after the ice and snow melted, and he was filled with tenderness. "Okay, I'll pick you up at seven o'clock."
