Chapter 15 : Setting Up
"It turns out to be Young Master Ye. Nice to meet you," Tian Yong flattered, bending over.
But Ye Tian was not interested in this kind of person and said, "Uncle Lin is in the construction business. I hope you won't trouble him anymore."
Tian Yong quickly said, "Of course not. I will give Lin the green light for all his projects in the future."
After saying a bunch of nice words, Tian Yong bid farewell and left.
The whole family was stunned. How did Ye Tian have such power to make Tian Yong so afraid and personally come to make amends?
Zhang Wei Guang's impersonation was exposed, and even though he had a thick skin, he felt a burning sensation and dared not look at Lin Jinsheng.
Lin Jinsheng glared at him and then looked at Ye Tian, "Ye Tian, do you know Liu Deming?"
Of course, he knew who Liu Deming was. He was the third most influential person in the province, with a strong background!
Ye Tian replied, "Yes, I helped him with his illness when I was in prison."
Zhu Yuting exclaimed in surprise, "Ye Tian, you can also treat illnesses?"
Lin Zi Yi laughed, "Mom, Ye Tian's medical skills are amazing."
Zhu Yuting asked, "Is that so? Ye Tian, are you a doctor?"
Ye Tian replied, "Sort of."
Lin Jinsheng frowned, "What do you mean by 'sort of'?"
Ye Tian explained, "I haven't obtained my medical license yet, so I'm not a real doctor at the moment."
Zhang Wei Guang, who had just lost face, was feeling unhappy. He couldn't help but interject, "So you're just a quack."
Lin Jinsheng said, "Ye Tian, you just got out of prison. Have you thought about what you want to do in the future?"
Ye Tian had already made plans and immediately answered, "Practice medicine. My medical skills are decent."
Lin Jinsheng nodded, "Being a doctor is not a bad idea. I know people at Haicheng Hospital. If you're willing, you can work there."
Lin Zi Yi quickly said, "That's great."
Ye Tian didn't really want to go to such a small hospital, but since Lin Zi Yi had agreed, he didn't say anything and simply replied, "Okay."
Suddenly, Lin Jinsheng stood up and said, "Ye Tian, come with me."
Ye Tian silently got up and followed Lin Jinsheng to the study.
After closing the door, Lin Jinsheng's expression suddenly became serious. He said, "Ye Tian, tell me the truth. How did you cure Liu Deming's illness?"
He had lived for half a lifetime and had a wealth of social experience. From Ye Tian's words, he discovered something that shocked him. So, he had to ask to make it clear.
Ye Tian replied, "Liu Deming was diagnosed with liver disease right after his promotion to deputy. His liver had cancerous changes, which not only prevented him from advancing in his career but also threatened his life. I prescribed him some medicine and gave him a few injections, and his illness was cured."
Lin Jinsheng immediately didn't believe it, "You can cure cancer?"
You should know that human medicine has not yet conquered cancer, so naturally, Lin Jinsheng didn't believe Ye Tian's words.
Ye Tian said, "Cancer is not incurable. As long as the body's immune system is activated, it can..."
Lin Jinsheng waved his hand, his eyes filled with impatience, and coldly said, "Enough, no need to say anymore. This kind of thing can only be attributed to your good luck."
Ye Tian knew that even if he explained further, Lin Jinsheng wouldn't believe him, so he didn't say anything more.
Lin Jinsheng said, "Tomorrow is my mother's birthday banquet, and Ma Junji from the Ma family will also attend. He will formally propose to the Lin family."
Ye Tian had known about this, but hearing Lin Jinsheng mention it now still made him feel uncomfortable.
Lin Jinsheng then said to Ye Tian, "As the father, I can't influence Zi Yi's marriage. It's up to the old lady. How about this, you and I will go together to the birthday banquet tomorrow. If you perform well, it might change the old lady's mind."
Although he said that, he didn't have much hope for Ye Tian. After all, compared to the young master of the Ma family, Ye Tian had no advantage. He let Ye Tian go just to make him give up.
Ye Tian said, "I will do my best."
A mocking smile flashed across Lin Jinsheng's lips and he said, "Alright, let's go out for a meal."
The two returned to the living room, and Ye Tian noticed that the jade bracelet he had given was casually placed on the table, as if it was considered fake. He didn't argue and silently sat next to Lin Zi Yi.
Zhu Yuting smiled and said, "My best friend's friend opened a restaurant nearby, and I heard the food is good. Shall we go there for lunch?"
Lin Jinsheng replied indifferently, "Whatever."
Zhu Yuting asked Ye Tian, "Ye Tian, will you... also come?"
Lin Zi Yi felt uncomfortable. Even if Ye Tian was a stranger who came as a guest, it was polite to invite him to eat. How could her mother say that?
She suddenly grabbed Ye Tian's hand and coldly said, "Mom, we won't eat. Let's go." After speaking, she pulled Ye Tian and was about to leave.
Zhu Yuting quickly said, "Alright, alright, let's all go together. We've already reserved a table, one more person won't make a difference."
Lin Jinsheng didn't object, and since Ye Tian had connections above, it would be helpful for his business. He said, "Ye Tian, come along."
Before leaving, Lin Jinsheng brought two bottles of wine that Zhang Wei Guang had given him, and the whole family went to the nearby hotel.
Zhang Wei Guang saw that Lin Jinsheng ultimately took the wine he bought, feeling triumphant. So what if the wine you, Ye Tian, gave was good? If the Lin family doesn't accept you, even if you're a treasure, you're still worthless!
After leaving the residential area, they walked for a few minutes and arrived at the hotel that Zhu Yuting mentioned.
There were flower baskets and banners at the entrance of the hotel. The receptionist warmly invited them inside.
As soon as they entered the hotel, they saw that the interior was luxurious, with giant flower vases over two meters tall on both sides, very beautiful.
As they passed by one of the vases, Zhu Yuting couldn't help but reach out and touch it, saying with a smile, "So beautiful..."
Before she finished speaking, the vase actually tilted to the side. Zhu Yuting quickly reached out to support it, but the vase was too big. Her attempt to support it only accelerated its fall.
"Crash!"
With a loud noise, the huge vase shattered into pieces.
Zhu Yuting was dumbfounded and turned to look at Lin Jinsheng, her face full of bitterness. "I just touched it, how did it break?"
Lin Jinsheng glared at his wife, blaming her for being too careless. Vases like this in hotels were specially made and not cheap.
Soon, the lobby manager hurried over. He was wearing a suit, with his hair neatly combed. He first glanced at the broken vase on the ground, his eyes flashing with a hint of brilliance, and said, "I'm sorry for disturbing you."
Lin Jinsheng had some money after all and said, "It's alright. How much is this vase? We'll compensate."
The manager smiled and said, "This vase is custom-made, created by a master porcelain artist and a master painter. It costs 8.8 million. By the way, this is the price from three years ago. It might be even more expensive now."
"What? 8 million?" Zhu Yuting felt as if she had been stepped on the tail and almost jumped up.
The manager smiled and said, "It's 8.8 million."
"You... are you trying to scam us?" Zhu Yuting became anxious and started speaking without thinking.
The manager's face immediately turned serious, "Madam, please watch your words, or don't blame me for being impolite!"
