Chapter 83 Gloomy

“Isn’t he called Ding, Ding Ning, ah, I got it. He is the highly-skilled doctor Ding Ning?”

With a sudden scream, the secretary blushed with excitement, and then became extremely regretful and looked speechless. “Oh my God, I actually saw the living Ding Ning. Oh, how didn’t I recognize him and ask him for a signature or take a photo with him? I’m so regretful. I’m so stupid that I didn’t recognize my idol and missed such a rare opportunity. If it’s known by other members of our fan club, they will definitely blame me. God, Ding Ning is so handsome and looks younger than in the video…”

Xia Ziyu was speechless. He knocked on his desk with his index finger to stop the secretary who had always been dignified from talking about her infatuation with Ding Ning, “Sisi, I am teaching you to do business, but you just think about your idol.”

“I’m sorry, president Xia. I think it a great pity to miss my idol. I am a member of his fan club. I had never been a fan of any star, but I’m a fan of doctor Ding. I learned more about the experience of his treatment to the patient who was going to be amputated. He didn’t want to be famous at all, but decided to treat the patient because he was just moved by the experience of the patient. Even when he was treating the patient, he did not know that the treatment would be uploaded to the Internet. The patient is a border guard. In order to cover his comrades…”

Sisi was a member of Ding Ning’s fan club indeed. She learned about every detail of the matter on that day.

According to her narration, Xia Ziyu looked thoughtful. He had thought that Ding Ning was a very deep-minded person and the treatment was just a show.

However, at this moment, he understood that it was a story different from what he had thought. Although as a businessman, he did not consider that there was anything wrong with making a show, he subconsciously disliked it and didn’t feel like having close contact with such a deep-minded person.

However, after learning about Ding Ning’s original intention, he had a different opinion on Ding Ning. Such a person deserved his deep friendship.

“Well, let’s get back to the subject. Now we’ll continue our conversation. Now you know why I want to sign the exclusive production order even I have to make the mold for him for free?”

Xia Ziyu said with a smile.

The secretary nodded hard and looked at him with innocent eyes, “Because he is Ding Ning.”

Xia Ziyu supported his forehead with his hand and wanted to cry, wondering if he should change a secretary. The secretary was so unresponsive.

“Isn’t it? What’s the reason?” Fortunately, the secretary was very studious, duly satisfying Xia Ziyu’s special hobby of teaching others.

Xia Ziyu felt refreshed and said, “Because he is Ding Ning!”

The secretary pouted her lips and looked at him as if he was mentally retarded, which made him get gooseflesh.

He didn’t dare to keep her guessing. Otherwise, if the secretary really considered him mentally retarded, it would be detrimental to his brilliant image.

He was exasperated to say, “You are so silly. Since you know that he is Ding Ning, why don’t you think about why he asked us to make such instruments at this time?”

With her big bright eyes blinking and her long fan-like eyelashes flickering, the secretary did not speak with a humble look, fully satisfying Xia Ziyu’s desire to teach others.

“What is the most popular topic now? It must be the anesthesia of traditional Chinese medicine. I don’t know what the instrument he wants to make is used for. Nevertheless, he said that it will be in great demand later, which means this kind of instrument is very likely related to the promotion of the anesthesia of traditional Chinese medicine. Just think about there are so many hospitals around the country, how many this kind of instruments will be demanded? How much profit it will bring for our company to sign this exclusive production contract first? What is more important is reputation. With a good reputation, our company will enter a period of rapid development.”

Xia Ziyu waved his fists and said excitedly.

“We can charge him one hundred yuan for each instrument. In fact, except for the cost of engraving the mold at the beginning, it costs less than forty yuan to produce this instrument with little technical content. We can make a profit which is more than 100%. Wow, President Xia, you are awesome. You can analyze so many things from some fine details, and you deserve to be my idol.”

The secretary held her hands in front of her chest. She seemed to admire him a lot, while thinking, “He’s really a profiteer who even dares to make profits from my idol.”

“Young lady, there are still many things that you should learn. You must analyze more and think hard when anything comes up.”

Xia Ziyu felt himself highly flattered, but there was something that he hadn’t told the secretary. Besides making money, making Ding Ning indebted to him was the most important thing.

As a rising star in the medical community, he was so young. Who could speculate on the level he could reach in the future?

As long as he had a close relationship with Ding Ning, no matter the brand effect or the convenience brought by private friendship would make it the most successful investment.

He was capable of seeing through people. He could tell that Ding Ning was actually very arrogant. Someone like Ding Ning took favor very seriously and would not ask for it easily. He offered to make the mold for free, which happened to be a big favor.

As he expected, Ding Ning accepted his favor with pleasure. Knowing that Xia Ziyu would never lose but would gain great profits later instead, Ding Ning still accepted his favor with pleasure.

It was easy to make perfection more perfect, but it was difficult to provide timely help. It cost 1.5 million yuan to make the initial mold, but he only had 1.1 million yuan. If Xia Ziyu did not do him a favor, the shortage of 400 thousand yuan was enough to make things extremely difficult for him.

He wasn’t cheeky enough to ask Mr. Hu or Mr. Zhang for money. Therefore, although Xia Ziyu seemingly managed to get the best for himself at the least expense, he was not disgusted with that. It was the embodiment of his boldness. There was nothing wrong with that!

Ding Ning took a taxi to return to the urban area, and went to Tianfu Building to buy a platinum necklace after ordering a cake. In any case, now Ling Yun could be roughly considered his girlfriend, so he couldn’t be slipshod on her birthday as before.

What was more, he now had money. The platinum necklace worth more than 8,000 yuan was affordable for him. He had never been a stingy person and thought little of money.

After he picked a necklace, held a cake and bought a lot of vegetables in a supermarket, it was already more than eight o’clock in the evening.

When he returned to his residence, he found that the lights of Ling Yun’s apartment were turned off. Did they go outside to celebrate her birthday?

It might be true. Chu Yunxiu attached great importance to Ling Yun’s birthday. In the past years, Ling Yun had never gone out to celebrate her birthday because she wanted to be accompanied by him. This time he deceived her that he couldn’t come back today, so it was reasonable that she and her mother went out to celebrate her birthday.

Ding Ning did not contemplate it, and began to wash the vegetables and prepare a fine dinner. He muttered in his heart, “Little Ling Yun, you should eat less tonight, lest you have no appetite for this fine dinner.”

“Pa pa pa!”

With a knock at the door, Ding Ning put down the food in his hand, washed his hands and went to open the door. “Gee, aunt Chu, you come back. Where is Ling Yun?”

“Ling Yun? She went shopping with her boyfriend.”

With unconcealed contempt on her face, Chu Yunxiu leant against the door, squinted at Ding Ning and said. There was still blush after drunkenness on her white face.

Ding Ning twisted the corners of his mouth and helplessly said with a bitter smile, “Aunt Chu, are you drunk? Let me make some hangover-cure soup for you.”

“Ding Ning, I tell you, you are not good enough for my daughter Ling Yun. Stop thinking about her. She has found a boyfriend. They just met yesterday, and have fallen in love with each other. Tonight it is her boyfriend who celebrates her birthday by specially holding a dance party for her. A lot, a lot of social celebrities have participated in it. He’s rich, powerful and incomparable to you. He has a luxury car, a villa and endless money. Tonight Ling Yun is the focus of the dance party, and everyone revolved around her. Haha, she is a princess, a well-deserved princess.”

Chu Xiuyun was obviously drunk. She leant against the door and kept talking with her transfixed eyes, “Do you know what her boyfriend gave her for her birthday? It’s a platinum necklace inlaid with a two-carat diamond. Just the necklace is worth more than 100,000 yuan. You’ve ever seen so much money in your life, right? Brat.”

Ding Ning’s face was ashen. Thinking of Ling Yun’s ambiguous words over the phone today, he felt so distressed as if his heart was needled. He said with patience, “Aunt Chu, you are drunk. Just go back to have a rest.”

After finishing his words, he wanted to close the door. Unexpectedly Chu Xiuyun blocked the door, pointed at Ding Ning’s nose and said, “Brat, I warn you, leave my daughter Ling Yun alone. You can’t offer her the happiness she wants. Today I come here not to tell you how happy Ling Yun is now, but to tell you that her boyfriend just talked with the developer and then they agreed to pay us 9,500 yuan for each square meter. You can never do it. What’s more, our house is going to be pulled down. If I remember correctly, you haven’t paid the rent for this month. I don’t mind about it. I don’t want the rent for this month. You just move away tomorrow, and don’t come back to find Ling Yun again. You don’t deserve her. Have you heard that!”

“Here is the rent for this month. I will move away tomorrow, but it’s not decided by you whether Ling Yun is happy or not. If she does not want to see me again, she will tell me personally. Goodbye, and I won’t bother to see you out!”

Looking at Chu Yunxiu’s snobbish face, Ding Ning had already reached the edge of the explosion of anger. He reached out to take out a wad of bills, put them in Chu Yunxiu’s hands even without counting them, pushed her out and shut the door.

“Bang bang bang!”

“Brat, do you think you are somebody with several thousand yuan? How you dare to shut me out. You should look at yourself in the mirror. Bah, as a poor man, you dare to hook up with my daughter Ling Yun… ”

Chu Yunxiu battered the door desperately, while cursing him.

Ding Ning sat on the bed, clenching his fists tightly, and his knuckles turned white. The orange light shone on his drooping head gloomily, just like his expression at the moment.

It hurt. His heart hurt. His heart hurt terribly. He didn’t believe that Ling Yun was a girl who admired vanity. However, she didn’t tell him that the guy arranged a birthday party for her, and she also made an ambiguous statement to hide it from himself. She had never done that. What did it mean?

He did not believe that Ling Yun would betray him, but he needed an explanation of why she deceived him.

The curse at the door had stopped. Ding Ning automatically stood up, washed and selected vegetables, put them in the pan and cooked them. After that, he placed these Ling Yun’s favorite dishes on the table and covered them with empty plates.

There was a cake in the center of the table. The cake was not big, but it was the strawberry flavor which was Ling Yun’s favorite.

On the cake, it was written with cream, “Happy birthday to Yun. From Ning, your little follower who will always guard your!”

Candles were inserted into the cake. There were twenty-two of them, which meant that after today, she would turn twenty-two years old.

She once said with a smile that when she turned 22 years old which was above the legal age for marriage, she would steal her household register book from her home and register for marriage with her little follower.

He once thought that she was joking. However, when she kissed him that day, he knew that she was serious.

“Patter patter!”

He kept turning on and turning off the lighter…

The flickering fire shone on his unclear face which showed no fear, no uneasiness, no anger but only endless indifference and a constantly sinking heart…
