My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 293

“Thank you, Auntie, but I have not done all this for my own sake. I only wish Chen and Auntie well.” Ouyang Qing’s eyes shone with innocence, her face guileless. One’s heart would stir at the sight of her lovely face.

“I know you mean well. Oh yes, Chen has mentioned that he will arrange a few specialists to diagnose me tomorrow. I guess they will send the diagnosis to the Nan family,” Bai Hua said in a low voice.

“Auntie, what do you mean?”

“I understand Chen is filial, but there are a lot of people who don’t wish for me to return. Thus, there are some plans I have to make.”

Ouyang Qing caught her meaning.

“But I don’t know the contact details of those specialists. Auntie, do you know them?”

“I don’t know them either. I only know that their leader is Director Zhou from the Capital. That man is renowned internationally. Do you know him?”

“Are you talking about China’s top traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, Zhou Linbo?”

“Yes, that’s him. I’ve heard he’s the leader of those specialists. His opinions will greatly influence the opinions of others.”

“So Auntie, what do you mean?”

“You know what I mean.”

“Yes, I understand. I have a few useful friends. It should not be difficult for me to track down the hotel Director Zhou is staying in, since I know his full name. I will get down to it now.”

…

Two hours later.

A woman with her face partially covered with a face mask, walked towards a hotel room in one of the hotels under Nanshi Corporation.

Director Zhou opened the door after the doorbell rang. The woman removed her face mask, revealing her beautiful, innocent face.

“Hello, Director Zhou. I am Ouyang Qing.”

“Hello, Ms. Ouyang. Please come in.”

Although Zhou Linbo was not familiar with Ouyang Qing, he had heard of the prominent Ouyang family.

Someone had called him on the hotel room’s telephone just now and said that the Second Miss from the Ouyang family would be visiting him. Director Zhou had put on his shirt quickly after the call, preparing to welcome her.

The hotel room was big, even having a lounge area.

Zhou Linbo sat opposite his beautiful guest after pouring her a drink.

“Ms. Ouyang, are you sick? Do you need me to treat you?”

“No, I’m here for another matter today. I have something to discuss with Director Zhou.”

“Please continue, Ms. Ouyang.”

“Actually, I’m here on behalf of my boyfriend. He is too busy, so he has asked me to help him pass a message to you.”

Zhou Linbo was confused. Who is your boyfriend?

“My boyfriend is Nan Chen,” said Ouyang Qing, her face full of bashfulness.

“Oh, so you are Mr. Nan’s girlfriend. Both of you are indeed a matching couple with enviable good looks.”

“Fine, then I will make myself clear. The diagnosis from the hospital in Tokyo is final. She is suffering from cancer and needs to receive long-term treatment with traditional Chinese medication. If the diagnosis is wrong, Auntie may not be able to stay in the Flower City. My boyfriend does not wish for anything to spoil his plans.”

Ouyang Qing took a check out of her purse.

Zhou Linbo finally got her meaning.

While he still did not understand the details, he was clear on the role he was supposed to play in this whole scheme.

Finally, I understand what it means by ‘the rich are full of secrets and schemes’. I have assumed my visit here is only to treat a patient. To think that I am so confident in my capability and have no fears at all. Who would have imagined that I won’t even be able to demonstrate my superb medical skills now!

“Ms. Ouyang, do you mean I am supposed to stick to the same diagnosis during the consultation tomorrow? And that our recommendation should be long-term conservative treatment with traditional Chinese medication?”

“It is the request of my boyfriend, Nan Chen, not mine,” Ouyang Qing corrected.

“I understand now. However, if you wanted to stick to the same diagnosis since the start, then why invite us all the way here?”

“Director Zhou is the expert, so are the other specialists. With the affirmation from you and the other specialists, the outsiders will believe Auntie’s illness is real,” said Ouyang Qing while pointing at the check.

Zhou Linbo hesitated. The amount on the check is very tempting. I can accept it with a peace of mind if it is meant only as consultation fees. But it does not seem right for me, as a top medical specialist, to earn money in this manner.

“Please take back the check. I know what I am supposed to do.”

“Do you think this amount is too little?” Ouyang Qing lifted a brow.

“Of course not. But as a doctor…”

Zhou Linbo was, after all, a person with status. He was worried the situation would come back to bite him if he pocketed the money now. In the past, others had to pay him a handsome sum as his consultation fees, but this was the first time he has encountered such a matter. Thus, he felt uneasy.
