"Eh, why did you guys follow? Weren't you going to visit Director Zuo?" Ge Dongxu expressed a hint of surprise when he saw Lin Jinnuo and his son catching up.

"It's more important to get Mr. Ge back home. I can visit Elder Zuo anytime," Lin Jinnuo said, panting.

"I can find a car to get back by myself. No need to trouble you," Ge Dongxu declined.

"How could we not? If it weren't for you today, I would have been a goner," Lin Jinnuo said.

"It's not that serious, there were doctors there!" Ge Dongxu said, somewhat embarrassed, with a light laugh.

"Mr. Ge, you don't have to be modest. I know I just had a cerebral hemorrhage. Even if I had been saved later, I would definitely have suffered some sequelae, not like now – as if nothing happened, still able to run," Lin Jinnuo said.

"Don't think it's nothing. This time was luck; next time might not be so fortunate. You still need to pay attention to exercise and watch what you eat and drink," aware that further humility would seem insincere, Ge Dongxu adopted a serious tone and advised.

"Ah, I know all that. I will definitely exercise more from now on, but the eating and drinking, that's really difficult! We run a hotel, and leaders come to the hotel from time to time. When a leader comes, isn't it proper for me, the boss, to join them for a few drinks?" Lin Jinnuo sighed.

Seeing Lin Jinnuo's body as big as a pig's, Ge Dongxu couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy. Indeed, every family has its own difficult scripture. Who says rich people live comfortably?

"Dad, what's more important, money or life? Don't forget the pain once the wound heals. Do you think you'll always be so lucky to have Brother Dongxu around? From now on, if you can avoid drinking, then don't drink. Our family isn't lacking money anyway," Lin Kun said from the side.

"Lin Kun, you've finally grown up. Your father will listen to you and try to drink less from now on," Lin Jinnuo said, his hefty body quivering slightly with contentment.

In the past, his son rarely said such caring words to him.

"It's all thanks to Brother Dongxu. If it weren't for him, I would still be straying further and further on the wrong path," Lin Kun said earnestly.

Lin Jinnuo's flesh trembled again as he finally realized why his son had been showing such dedication recently. It was all because of the young man before them.

"Mr. Ge, you saved my life and made my wayward son turn over a new leaf. I really don't know how to thank you!" Lin Jinnuo said gratefully.

"It was just a helping hand. And Mr. Lin, please don't keep calling me 'Mr. Ge.' I'm only sixteen years old, so just call me by my name," Ge Dongxu said with a smile.

"Alright then, I'll take the liberty of calling you Dongxu, and don't call me Mr. Lin. I'm old, so you can just call me Old Lin. It sounds more friendly," Lin Jinnuo, a hotel owner, had the frank and forthright style of someone from the fraternity, direct and unpretentious.

"Old Lin? Haha, I'll just call you Uncle Lin," Ge Dongxu said.

"No, I really can't live up to that title of 'uncle,' just call me Old Lin!" Lin Jinnuo hurriedly objected.

"Alright then," Ge Dongxu, seeing Lin Jinnuo's insistence, agreed to do as he wished.

After all, one was a big hotel owner and the other a high school student; it was unlikely they would meet often in the future.

While chatting, the three of them reached the hospital's parking lot.

Lin Jinnuo's car was also an Audi 200, just like Liu Jiayao's.

Lin Kun was driving, while Lin Jinnuo accompanied Ge Dongxu in the back. Being a hotel owner, Lin Jinnuo knew all kinds of people and could mingle with them easily. He had his own unique way of building relationships and was also a very good talker.

He felt both gratitude and respect for Ge Dongxu in his heart, naturally wanting to become friends with him by any means possible. And since Ge Dongxu was after all a young man with limited experience, under Lin Jinnuo's earnest efforts to befriend him, he was quickly attracted by Lin Jinnuo's charismatic personality, talking and laughing together, and taking the opportunity to ask about many business matters.

Seeing that Ge Dongxu, despite his youth, was interested in adult matters of society, Lin Jinnuo talked about many business issues, and even some political matters, including Elder Zuo.

"This time, Elder Zuo really turned misfortune into fortune! Originally, when Director Yao stepped down, it wasn't certain that Elder Zuo could take over the director's position. But with this work-related injury, the directorship is definitely his now," Lin Jinnuo said.

"It's what he deserves," Ge Dongxu replied.

"That is true; Elder Zuo is quite a decent man, capable and practical. Unlike some officials who don't do any work, but are greedy. Frankly speaking, for us in business, we really don't mind officials taking a bit more, but the problem is, they need to get some work done. You can't just take the money and then go out of your way to cause trouble," Lin Jinnuo explained.

Ge Dongxu smiled upon hearing this but didn't speak, as these matters were beyond his understanding, so naturally, he did not feel it right to comment casually.

Seeing that Ge Dongxu remained silent, Lin Jinnuo knew he might not like these topics and changed the subject.

With Lin Jinnuo's company along the way, Ge Dongxu learned a great deal, so time felt like it passed very quickly, and before long, they arrived at Cheng Yazhou's doorstep.

"Dongxu, I really thank you for today, I'll treat you to a meal another day," Lin Jinnuo said as he got out of the car and shook hands with Ge Dongxu.

"Haha, no need to be polite, Old Lin. It's getting late; I'll go up first, or Uncle Cheng might start to worry," Ge Dongxu responded.

"Alright, take care on your way up. If you need anything in Changxi County, just give me a call. I still have some connections there," Lin Jinnuo declared.

Ge Dongxu smiled and nodded, then went back to Cheng Yazhou's home.

...

On Friday night, Ge Dongxu boarded the train to the Provincial Capital.

As soon as he passed through the ticket gate, he saw Liu Jiayao.

Liu Jiayao was dressed casually today, in bleached tight jeans and a snug woolen sweater with a denim jacket, exuding a youthful energy, not at all like a female company president.

Upon seeing Ge Dongxu, she happily approached him and expertly linked arms with him, her lovely, enticing eyes scanning him up and down as she smiled and said, "We haven't seen each other for three months, and you seem to have grown quite a bit taller."

"It's been three months, and Sister Liu seems to have become younger and prettier," Ge Dongxu said with a smile.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"Hehe, in three months, your flattery has gotten sweeter too," Liu Jiayao cheerfully commented, playfully glancing at him with her enchanting eyes.

"I'm only telling the truth," Ge Dongxu chuckled.

"Really? Then it seems I have indeed become younger," Liu Jiayao said gleefully, touching her cheek.

The driver was still Li Min. When she saw Liu Jiayao walking arm-in-arm with Ge Dongxu, she couldn't help but feel puzzled as to why Liu Jiayao was so good to this young man. Not only had she personally come to pick him up early in the morning but she even walked arm-in-arm with him!

Of course, she would never think that Liu Jiayao had taken a liking to Ge Dongxu!
