"If you don't want to die, get out."
Assistant Liu was about to grab Zhan Xiaojun, intending to drag her out.
But just as his hand was about to touch Zhan Xiaojun's slender arm.
Zhan Xiaojun, without even looking, seized Assistant Liu's wrist first.
Assistant Liu was shocked.
He had received special training and was comparable to a qualified special forces soldier. He had never imagined being easily controlled by a woman.
He couldn't even succeed in counter-gripping her.
On the surface, he showed no outward reaction, but inside, he was immensely astonished.
Zhan Xiaojun released his hand and looked at Assistant Liu with a calm expression. "I think you should calm down. Some things, after today, even if you come to me tomorrow, I won't agree."
Her tone was casual, as if discussing the most ordinary matter.
Yang Yizhi's heart trembled. Was it because she was currently looking up at Zhan Xiaojun from the ground? She felt as if Zhan Xiaojun had undergone a drastic transformation.
A transformation that was like shedding her old skin.
Like a stranger.
"President Ning also hasn't slept for two days, right?" Zhan Xiaojun's tone remained cool, her words sounding like she was discussing a mundane affair.
However.
It was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples.
Assistant Liu, still reeling from the shock of being controlled and unable to retaliate, was nevertheless startled by Zhan Xiaojun's words. He almost instinctively retorted, "How do you know?"
Ning Yecheng suddenly looked sharply at Zhan Xiaojun.
"Can President Ning consider letting my friend go?" Zhan Xiaojun asked with a smile.
Ning Yecheng scrutinized Zhan Xiaojun, a hint of suspicion in his eyes.
Who had leaked his information?
Or was she deliberately trying to get close to him?
"Mm."
With Ning Yecheng's acknowledgment, the group of people who had been made to stand in the bar scattered like frightened birds.
Assistant Liu also lifted his foot and said, "Scram."
Yang Yizhi scrambled to her feet. As she was about to flee, she hesitated and looked at Zhan Xiaojun, "Xiaojun..."
"Wait for me outside," Zhan Xiaojun said concisely.
Yang Yizhi bit her lip, cast a fearful glance at Ning Yecheng, and then, unable to care for anything else, quickly escaped.
In the dimly lit bar, amidst a silence that sent shivers down one's spine.
Zhan Xiaojun was calm and composed.
It was the ringing of a mobile phone that finally broke the atmosphere.
Assistant Liu answered the call.
Upon hearing the words from the other end, Assistant Liu quickly reported, "President Ning, the doctor from Country L has landed and is already on his way to the villa."
As he finished speaking, he cast another surprised glance at Zhan Xiaojun.
This Zhan Xiaojun had dropped out of high school, could she understand medicine?
Or was it a fluke, a lucky guess that President Ning hadn't slept for two days?
Aside from the few doctors treating President Ning, only he and a few members of the Ning family knew about this. Logically, this kind of information would never leak.
After all, the consequences of being caught as the one who leaked President Ning's affairs were something they could not bear.
Under these circumstances, how could Zhan Xiaojun possibly know?
If she claimed to know medicine, who would believe her?
No one with a sound mind would believe it.
"Mm," Ning Yecheng responded indifferently, then raised his eyes to look at Zhan Xiaojun. "State your compensation."
Assistant Liu's heart immediately leaped into his throat, feeling as if Zhan Xiaojun was about to say she would spend a night with President Ning.
"I am more reliable than the doctor you invited from Country L," Zhan Xiaojun said, unwilling to waste words.
Over the past few years, she and her second brother had earned quite a reputation in the martial world, and countless people sought them for treatment.
Her medical skills gave her such confident pride.
But seeing Assistant Liu's shock and suspicion, she suddenly sobered. The original owner's experiences would make people think she was exaggerating and fabricating stories.
She was already preparing to take out the acupuncture needles she carried to demonstrate her skill and dispel Ning Yecheng's doubts.
As it turned out, Ning Yecheng was staring intently at her and said, "Come with us."
An hour later.
Jade Bay Villa.
It was described as a villa, but it was more like a castle estate.
Far from the city, extremely secluded, its grounds were comparable to her father's royal manor.
This was a testament to the Ning family's wealth.
Zhan Xiaojun was unaccustomed to such places.
Therefore, she didn't notice Assistant Liu's astonishment at her calm and composed demeanor.
Zhan Xiaojun had surprised him repeatedly today.
The first time he had visited Jade Bay Villa, despite his efforts to restrain himself, he had been stunned.
This woman might be more cunning than he thought.
Perhaps she was deliberately trying to get close to President Ning.
Zhan Xiaojun walked behind Ning Yecheng.
The original owner should have been about 1.7 meters tall, but in front of Ning Yecheng, she only reached his shoulder.
Was this man that tall?
His already powerful and imposing aura, combined with his height, made people involuntarily submit and fear him.
Zhan Xiaojun was curious about the design of the villas in this world.
As she walked, she noted down some of the places that impressed her.
If she could return one day, she would build such grand villas for her parents and three brothers.
Thinking of her parents.
Zhan Xiaojun recalled the scene of her soul returning that day. She wasn't sure if she could go back, and she worried that her family, in their quest for revenge for her, might encounter danger.
Thinking of her family, Zhan Xiaojun lowered her gaze.
They entered the villa.
She saw the doctors they had invited from Country L.
"Hello, President Ning, I am Li Fei," Li Fei said with great respect.
Before being invited to Yan City, he had heard about the Ning family, so he displayed a trace of the arrogance of a renowned physician sought after by many.
He then glanced at Zhan Xiaojun and Assistant Liu.
He assumed they were both Ning Yecheng's assistants.
Ning Yecheng nodded. "Sit."
Li Fei sat down.
His talent for medicine allowed him to remain composed when facing people of status.
He also believed he could satisfy Ning Yecheng.
"On the plane, I reviewed President Ning's medical records and have gained some understanding. Based on these records, I have developed some treatment plans. The medical research team I am part of has developed a special drug that will be beneficial for President Ning's condition."
As Li Fei spoke, he took out a bottle of medicine.
"Special drug?" Ning Yecheng raised an eyebrow.
Li Fei nodded. "Yes, President Ning can try it. Take one tablet tonight. If you can enter a deep sleep, it means the special drug is effective for President Ning. I will then formulate a treatment plan based on President Ning's condition after taking the medication."
Assistant Liu frowned.
Another special drug?
President Ning had taken many advanced special drugs from various top medical teams, but none had worked.
The renowned Li Fei before him was also offering a special drug from a medical team?
"Besides taking medication, are there any other medical methods?" Ning Yecheng asked indifferently.
Li Fei looked somewhat surprised. "Currently, there are no better alternative medical methods for insomnia. I believe President Ning has also tried some methods, and those methods were likely ineffective."
He had ample confidence in the special drug developed by his team.
