A master of both medicine and martial arts, he recruits a beautiful CEO to cultivate immortality tog

After Ye Heng finished massaging Liu Zhixian's feet, Liu Zhixian felt all the soreness and fatigue in her feet disappear, replaced by a warm, light, and comfortable sensation.

"Ye Heng, come here for a moment," she suddenly said.

Ye Heng turned his head to look at her.

Liu Zhixian leaned closer and beckoned with her fair fingers.

Ye Heng leaned down as instructed, thinking she was going to whisper something.

The next second, her soft, fragrant lips gently pressed against his cheek, touching and separating in an instant, as fast as a butterfly's wing skimming across water.

Only a clear, slightly damp sensation remained, along with her unique scent.

"This is a reward for you."

Liu Zhixian returned to her original position, a sly smile on her face.

"Since Doctor Ye's techniques are so good, we should at least give him a little something in return."

Ye Heng was stunned for a moment, then chuckled, raised his hand to wipe his cheek, his fingertips still feeling the soft warmth of that touch.

This woman always manages to touch his heart in the most unintentional way.

"Is that all the sweetness you get?" He deliberately raised an eyebrow, his tone tinged with mockery.

Just as Liu Zhixian was about to say something more, Ye Heng's phone suddenly vibrated, breaking the romantic atmosphere.

Ye Heng took out his phone, and the name "Xia He" appeared on the screen.

He frowned almost imperceptibly between his brows.

Xia He? Why would she suddenly call?

As soon as Xia He pressed the answer button, her anxious, choked-up voice came through:

"Ye Heng, this is Xia He. I'm sorry to bother you so suddenly... My brother... the doctor said he's dying and we should prepare for his passing... I really have no other choice, and I remembered you said you knew medicine..."

"Please, please, can you save my brother? I really... I really don't know who else I can turn to..."

The girl's voice was broken and filled with despair.

Ye Heng's expression instantly calmed down.

"Don't rush, tell me slowly. Which hospital are you in now?"

Xia He quickly gave an address: a small district-level hospital in Guangming District.

"My brother's vital signs are all deteriorating, and the doctors can't find the specific cause..."

"Okay, I understand. I'll be right there. Stay in the hospital and don't wander around."

Ye Heng readily agreed without the slightest hesitation.

After hanging up the phone, he looked up at Liu Zhixian beside him, a hint of apology in his eyes.

I had originally planned to spend Haha's birthday with her, but this unexpected turn of events ultimately disrupted this rare moment of leisure.

Liu Zhixian overheard the gist of their conversation and also noticed the momentary seriousness on Ye Heng's face when he answered the phone.

She didn't realize it was a patient with an emergency who needed help.

The slight regret in my heart caused by the interruption of the date also vanished instantly.

Before Ye Heng could explain, Liu Zhixian had already released her grip on his arm, and her lazy yet charming smile returned to her face.

"Alright, hurry up and go. Saving a life is urgent, there's no time to lose."

She said in a relaxed, even slightly teasing tone, "Sigh, it seems my little gift can't compare to another sister's SOS call."

These words were half-truths, with a hint of jealousy, but more of a way to ease the tension and express her attitude.

Ye Heng gave her a deep look, understanding the thoughtfulness and support beneath her seemingly indifferent expression.

He reached out and squeezed her slightly cool hand tightly: "Zhixian, thank you, I'll make it up to you next time."

"Don't say it." Liu Zhixian's eyes were gentle.

"Go quickly, and be careful on the road."

……

Xia He leaned against the wall of the corridor outside the ICU, her fingers unconsciously twisting the hem of her clothes, the edges of her nails already turning white.

The clock on the wall ticked away, each tick like a blow to her taut nerves.

On the bench nearby, the father, Xia Guoqiang, sat hunched over, his gray hair gleaming under the fluorescent light. The mother, Li Xiulan, kept wiping away tears, her eyes red and swollen, clutching a soaked tissue in her hand.

"Xiao He," Xia Guoqiang said hoarsely, his voice utterly exhausted, "who...who did you call just now? Was it a doctor? Are there any other specialists we can call?"

Xia He quickly straightened up: "Dad, I called... a colleague of mine. He's skilled in medicine, very good at it. He said he'd come over to see my brother right away."

"Colleague?" Li Xiulan looked up, tears still on her face, her voice filled with doubt and frustration.

"I know your company is a big company, but what kind of colleague understands medicine? Your brother is in this state, and even the hospital specialists are helpless. Why would you bring a colleague here to make things worse?"

"What if... what if he moves on your brother and delays his treatment? Do you think your brother isn't in danger enough?"

"Mom!" Xia He cried out, her voice rising with urgency and grievance.

"Ye Heng isn't just an ordinary colleague! He's incredibly capable! He's the one who helped me recover that bad debt in our department! It was thanks to that 100,000 yuan bonus that my brother was able to get into this ward and have Director Wang perform the surgery! If it weren't for him..."

Li Xiulan paused, seemingly remembering the life-saving money, but anxiety and fear quickly overwhelmed her reason: "That...that's a different matter! Does knowing how to collect debts mean you can treat illnesses? Are they the same thing? Your brother is lying in there now, is this a joke? You..."

"Alright, alright, stop arguing."

Xia Guoqiang wearily interrupted his wife. He looked at his daughter, his eyes bloodshot, filled with a hope that bordered on despair.

"Xiao He, your colleague... does he really know medicine? Or is he just making things up?"

Xia He nodded vigorously: "Dad, I believe him. He's not the kind of person who makes empty promises. Besides... do we have any other options right now?"

Her voice lowered, choked with sobs, "Director Wang said... we should be mentally prepared."

These words were like a dull knife, cutting into the hearts of three people.

In this suffocating wait, the operating room door finally clicked open.

A doctor wearing surgical scrubs, a mask, and a cap came out. He looked exhausted, and there were fine beads of sweat on his forehead.

The three of them immediately surrounded her like startled birds.

"Doctor! How is my son?" Li Xiulan asked first.

Xia Guoqiang stared intently at the doctor, his lips moving but unable to utter a word.

The doctor removed his mask, revealing a middle-aged face with a solemn expression.

He glanced at the three faces before him, each filled with fear and anticipation, and sighed softly.

"The patient's condition... is not optimistic."

Those few simple words struck like a heavy hammer. Li Xiulan's vision went black, and she almost collapsed, but Xia He caught her.

"There are clear signs of brain damage. Given the current condition, the risk of brain death is extremely high, and even with the resources and expertise of our hospital, we may not be able to provide the necessary sophisticated treatment and functional recovery."

"Then...what should we do? Doctor, please, save my brother, he's so young..."

Xia He burst into tears.

The doctor looked slightly embarrassed, but then a glimmer of light appeared in his eyes as if he had thought of something.

"Please don't panic. Our hospital director just learned about this case and has personally contacted a renowned doctor."

"A miracle doctor?" A glimmer of hope ignited in Xia Guoqiang's cloudy eyes.

"Yes, Dr. Lu, the Divine Physician Lu." The doctor's tone unconsciously carried a hint of respect when he mentioned this name.
