Chapter 110: Yanyan, I Want To Serve You

Qin Jiang didn’t have time to think. He rushed toward the restroom to follow Yan Liang, but Yan Liang shut the restroom door with a backhand.

Qin Jiang stood where he was, extremely anxious. “Yanyan, Yanyan, what’s wrong with you?”

“Don’t scare me…”

Qin Jiang had just experienced the terror of almost losing Yan Liang, so now he was all the more cautious.

Then Zhou Ning, who had seen Butler Xu off, returned. Frowning at the noodles Qin Jiang had just made, he spoke sternly, “Mr. Qin, did you add vinegar to the noodles?”

“Our Young Mistress’s stomach is poor and has never been able to eat vinegar. This should be a result of gastrointestinal irritation.”

“I’ve already contacted the family doctor to come, rest assured… These are old problems of the Young Mistress—she has always asked us to hide them from you.”

Zhou Ning spoke calmly. His serious and somewhat unfriendly expression toward Qin Jiang did much to dispel Qin Jiang’s doubts.

After all, these things were true.

Yan Liang indeed couldn’t eat vinegar. Her gastrointestinal tract had become extremely fragile from years of poor appetite.

Vinegar had indeed always been banned in the kitchen.

But there happened to be some in the backup kitchen, and Qin Jiang habitually used vinegar to season the noodles—this explanation was foolproof.

Still, Qin Jiang couldn’t help but suspect…

“Zhou Ning, is Yanyan’s health very poor now? Is there anything she needs me to do? Can you tell me?”

“I’m her husband. If there’s really something wrong, she should discuss it with me.”

Qin Jiang felt uneasy, as if something was amiss.

Although for a moment he had suspected whether Yan Liang was pregnant, that was impossible.

He had just taken Yan Liang’s pulse—it wasn’t a pregnancy pulse.

That left only one possibility… Yanyan’s condition was actually already showing signs of deterioration.

In his previous life he had been completely unaware at this point.

“Mr. Qin, the Young Mistress she…”

Zhou Ning began to speak but stopped. At that moment the bathroom door happened to open.

Yan Liang walked out with a pale face, still noble and coldly beautiful. Her lips were a bit more vivid, and against her snow-white skin she looked like a vampire beauty that had stepped out of a film.

Eerie and mysterious, stunning and dangerous!!

“Jiang, I’m fine.”

“I just can’t eat vinegar, even smelling it makes me uncomfortable. Don’t worry about my health—I’m fine.”

“Besides, don’t I have you? You’re already using medicinal cuisine to help regulate my body. I must live a long time to be with you.”

Yan Liang cut off Qin Jiang’s further questions.

“Zhou Ning, have Doctor Manke come in a bit.”

“Jiang is worried about my health, so have him present to properly examine me.”

With Yan Liang’s instruction, Qin Jiang felt a lot more settled.

Doctor Manke’s medical skills were renowned worldwide.

Of course, his specialty was hypnosis.

When Qin Jiang had previously studied medicine under Qin Muyun, he often clung to her and admired Doctor Manke’s abilities together.

But Qin Muyun had gone abroad for two years of advanced study and still couldn’t get into Doctor Manke’s circle of students.

Two hours of in-depth examination later.

Qin Jiang stayed with Yan Liang the whole time. She was extremely cooperative.

“Doctor Manke, how is Yanyan’s health?”

“It’s internal deficiency, already trending toward a state where tonics won’t be well received. Let me see your recent medicinal cuisine prescriptions.”

After reviewing them, Doctor Manke looked at Qin Jiang with considerable appreciation. “Mr. Qin’s depth in Chinese medicine genuinely impresses me.”

“These decoctions are indeed beneficial to the Young Mistress and are appropriately warming and tonifying. If her body weren’t so deficient now, the benefits would be even more pronounced.”

“I’ll write a new prescription. I only hope the Young Mistress won’t smash the medicine bowl this time and will properly recuperate…”

After Doctor Manke finished speaking, he looked deeply and patted Qin Jiang on the shoulder—a gesture of appreciation and approval.

If his students in the industry saw this, they’d probably be jealous enough to vomit blood.

Doctor Manke was extremely strict and would never lightly praise any student.

Meanwhile, Zhou Ning saw that Doctor Manke’s praise was so heartfelt and genuine-looking.

Manke, oh Manke, you really did earn that money!

What a convincing performance~~

After sending Doctor Manke off, Qin Jiang finally felt significantly relieved. He’d read the prescription Doctor Manke wrote, and it would indeed benefit Yanyan’s current condition.

“Alright Jiang, you’re relieved now, right?”

Yan Liang rose and waved at Qin Jiang, and he hurried over to support his wife.

My darling must not get hurt even a little.

“Mm.”

“Yanyan, do you have anything on this afternoon?”

Yan Liang paused. This afternoon… she had to negotiate a customized satellite launch cooperation with clients from the Middle East.

It was said that the client came with $30 billion…

This meeting was one of the important ones she needed to preside over personally.

The Yan Group’s conglomerate spanned numerous fields, with particularly heavy investment in research. Major projects cooperated with the nation’s top officials and shared resources.

Chips, shipping, major industries across land, sea and air, internet, petrochemicals—there was nothing the Yan family couldn’t do. It was only a matter of how wild your imagination could get.

“It’s fine.”

“Jiang, whatever you want to do, I can accompany you.”

Zhou Ning gasped.

Young Mistress, that’s your typical ‘business tyrant’ mindset* speaking again.*

The Middle Eastern client had already been picked up by the marketing department at noon and was waiting at the city’s top hotel—could she really just decide not to go for the meeting?!

A $30 billion project—shouldn’t we pay some attention?

It’s not just $300!!

“I know some massage techniques and moxibustion. With your deficiency, warming tonifying moxibustion is the best method.”

“Yanyan, I want to serve you.”

Qin Jiang was indeed worried about Yan Liang’s health, but he also knew her body needed time and groundwork for treatment. It couldn’t be resolved all at once.

“Will two hours be okay?”

“We can do it in the office. The company’s recent renaming and equity change contracts have already been finalized by the Yan Group’s law firm.”

“Jiang, you must accompany me to take a look… at our empire.”

Qin Jiang nodded and agreed.

…

At Qin-Yan International Group.

The moment Qin Jiang and Yan Liang got out of the car, they saw the group’s name on the tallest, most splendid office building in the city had already been changed.

Many employees stared at the newly changed company name, whispering, “Oh my god, did you hear? Ms. Liang is totally besotted with this guy—no matter how much she loves a pretty boy, she shouldn’t hand over her family’s shares, right? She’s betting her whole life on one man’s sincerity…”

“Tsk tsk, I’m so envious of this new Mr. Qin from a grassroots background—he must be amazing in bed, otherwise how could he have our Ms. Liang so completely under his control?”

“I think Ms. Liang must have been bewitched—Qin Jiang, apart from being tall, handsome, and well-educated… is basically useless!”

“Stop being jealous, stop being jealous—even if Ms. Liang lost the Yan Group, she still has trillions in assets backing her. Are you sure she needs your pity, you poverty-stricken fools?”

“That stings, bro!”

“That’s too harsh, buddy…”

Qin Jiang vaguely heard some discussion but didn’t take it to heart.

One saying was true: Yanyan and he were one as husband and wife.

He now at least had trillions of assets backing him—he had no energy to fuss over the small fries’ noise.

“Jiang, welcome to—Qin-Yan International Group!!”

“Come on, as CEO I’ve already arranged a separate new office for you.”

“Of course, our lounge… is connected.”

“Jiang can come to look for me anytime.”

Yan Liang spoke breezily—she dared to say it, but Qin Jiang hardly dared to hear it.

They were already almost at the building’s main hall.

“Hello, Ms. Liang!!”

“Hello, CEO Qin!”

The two polite salutations from the employees instantly pleased Qin Jiang!

Was this the joy of being a kept man?

A dedicated elevator led straight to the president’s office.

But this time, as soon as Qin Jiang stepped out of the elevator, a ferocious big white lion pounced and knocked him to the ground.

“General!!”

“Don’t bully him.”

“He’s one of mine!”

Yan Liang coldly scolded the lion, her snake-like eyes swept calmly and chillingly. The big white lion immediately obediently prostrated and even gave Qin Jiang a big lick on the face as an apology.

“Awoo…”

General was a bit displeased.

Had the Young Mistress… gotten a new pet?

This human—she remembered him.

Wasn’t he the tool the Young Mistress tied up in the little dark room to vent at will?

What, had he been tamed as well?

“Young Mistress, the Middle Eastern client, Tassen, arrived early…”

Zhou Ning reported calmly. In truth he was also giving the Young Mistress a chance to slip away and handle business.

“Mm, Jiang, accompany me.”

Qin Jiang was full of question marks, and couldn’t help pointing at himself: Me?

Zhou Ning’s head was full of question marks too.

Him? This guy? Was she sure about that??
