"Alright, I understand."
Lin Fan rolled his eyes. It was just delivering two watermelons, acting like he was entering the palace to see the empress.
What era was this, still playing these games? Did they really think they could do whatever they wanted with a bit of money? xxs12
He went around the rockery at the entrance, and there was a large lawn next to the cherry blossom trees.
Looking out, it was very magnificent.
The two stopped ten feet behind Ye Zi.
"Ling'er, you can go down first," Ye Zi said calmly.
A hint of doubt flashed in Ling'er's eyes, "Miss, I..."
She wanted to say something, but Ye Zi stopped her with a raised hand.
"I have something I want to discuss with Mr. Lin privately. Go and guard the door and don't let anyone in," Ye Zi instructed.
Ling'er's delicate brows furrowed, her face full of confusion.
However, she dared not disobey her master's orders. She nodded slightly, turned, and left.
Lin Fan couldn't stand this kind of pretentious behavior from the rich. He placed the two watermelons on the ground and said, "Miss Ye Zi, thank you for buying the watermelons from our Luofeng Village. We have distributed the other watermelons to the workers in town as you instructed."
"The two watermelons delivered to you are the best we picked. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now."
Lin Fan turned to leave, but Ye Zi called him back.
"Wait!"
"Lin Fan, aren't you curious why I bought your watermelons?"
"Not curious. Anyway, the minds of rich people are different from normal people."
"Oh, right, have we met before?" Lin Fan asked casually.
Ye Zi's delicate body trembled, and she slowly turned around.
"It's you!" Lin Fan exclaimed. This face, it was the seductive woman who had appeared in his dreams these past few days, Ye Qingcheng!
This face, so beautiful without a single flaw, so naturally perfect, once seen, would be remembered for a lifetime!
Among all the women he had seen, only Xia Xue could be compared to Ye Qingcheng.
Both women were perfect!
Ye Qingcheng's expression was blank, her aura cold and proud. "You've seen me?"
Her voice was pleasant, but less seductive than in his dreams.
"You're the famous Iceberg Goddess. What man doesn't have a few pictures of you hanging at home? I just didn't expect to see the living one today."
Lin Fan chuckled sheepishly, almost letting slip.
If she knew that he had... relations with her in his dreams.
Who knew what expression this Iceberg Goddess would have? She would probably kill him on the spot.
A flicker of disgust flashed in Ye Qingcheng's eyes.
According to rumors, she hated men the most. Her assistants and bodyguards were all women.
Lin Fan had only mentioned that men would hang her pictures, and she was already disgusted, even showing disdain.
After carefully sensing, there was no other male presence in the entire villa except Lin Fan.
This proved the rumors were true; Ye Qingcheng indeed disliked men.
"Your room also has my picture?" Ye Qingcheng asked.
"Miss Ye, you called me all the way here, not just to ask this, right?" Lin Fan retorted.
It was not uncommon for rich people to spend money carelessly.
But Ye Qingcheng specifically sent Ling'er away, which was a bit unusual.
Moreover, she was the seductive beauty from his dreams...
Lin Fan felt there might be a connection.
Ye Qingcheng looked at him quietly, then suddenly smiled, making one feel as if bathed in spring breeze.
Her delicate lips parted. "I've been hearing a lot about the divine doctor Lin from Luofeng Village recently. Coincidentally, I haven't been feeling well lately and would like to ask divine doctor Lin to examine me."
Lin Fan immediately perked up. "Seeing a doctor is fine. First, take off your clothes... cough cough."
He only remembered after speaking that this was Ye Qingcheng, not some other woman.
"I'll examine you right here."
Ye Qingcheng extended her fair arm.
Lin Fan placed his three fingers on her wrist, and his eyes lit up.
Her skin was delicate and cool to the touch, just like in his dreams!
"What's wrong?" Ye Qingcheng asked, confused.
"Nothing. In such hot weather, Miss Ye's body is so cool. It must be very comfortable to hold you while sleeping at night."
Lin Fan spoke the truth in a joking tone.
Ye Qingcheng's expression changed, showing a hint of displeasure.
This was the first time a man had dared to joke with her like this.
She suppressed her anger and did not lash out.
Lin Fan took her pulse, then removed his hand after a moment. "It's nothing serious, just a bit of kidney deficiency and cold uterus, common ailments for women. It can be cured with some tonifying blood and qi Chinese medicine."
The Tianbao Hall of the Ye family was the largest pharmaceutical group in Yunqing City.
As the eldest daughter of Tianbao Hall, it would be truly bizarre if her body had any illnesses.
Ye Qingcheng retracted her arm and hid it within her white cloak.
She took out a bank card. "This is one hundred thousand yuan for your consultation fee. You may leave."
Lin Fan did not reach out to take it. "I just took your pulse. I don't need money. If Miss Ye has any friends who are ill, please don't forget to recommend me."
He then turned and left.
Ling'er stood by the door and, upon seeing Lin Fan emerge, led him back the way he came.
Inside the villa.
An old woman, hidden within a white cloak, emerged silently from the darkness.
Her hunched figure radiated no energy. She moved behind Ye Qingcheng.
"Master Zhang, did you find anything?" Ye Qingcheng asked without turning around.
The old woman, Master Zhang, shook her head. "I can't sense any energy fluctuations from him, but..."
She hesitated. Ye Qingcheng looked at her. "Master Zhang, please speak your mind."
Master Zhang cupped her hands. "There is a mist surrounding this child. With my current cultivation level, I cannot see through it."
Ye Qingcheng was greatly surprised. "Even you can't see through it?!"
Master Zhang nodded. "Strange, so strange! There are no energy fluctuations whatsoever, yet with my Heavenly Eyes open, I cannot see through it. It's truly peculiar."
"In Master Zhang's opinion, why might this be happening?"
"There are generally two possibilities for such a situation."
"First, a powerful individual has cast a spell on him, erasing traces of his past and future, thus forming a mist that makes him undetectable."
"The second possibility is... this child is extraordinary, a chosen one, but has not yet awakened. Therefore, we mortals cannot probe him."
Ye Qingcheng's delicate brows furrowed. "A chosen one?!"
"A chosen one is the creator of the world, or perhaps the founder of a sect. In any case, their destiny is bound to be earth-shattering," Master Zhang explained.
"Hiss~"
Ye Qingcheng took a deep breath, finding it utterly absurd.
Seeing her lost in thought, Master Zhang asked curiously, "Miss Ye, I've watched you grow up since you were little. I've never seen you so interested in a particular person or matter, especially since he's a man."
Ye Qingcheng's incredibly beautiful face regained its proud and cold demeanor.
She bit her lower lip and said truthfully, "I've been dreaming of him frequently these past few days. It wasn't until I accidentally saw his live broadcast last night that I realized these dreams were definitely not simple."
