After three years of being married into the family, his identity as a miracle doctor can no longer b

Neon lights streamed through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows into Li Junkai's spacious and luxurious CEO office.

The high-end ebony desk was so shiny it reflected the light, and the room was filled with the faint aroma of cigars. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, the lights of the entire city were on full display.

Li Junkai leaned back in the large leather boss's chair, a cigar between his fingers, looking languid, as he was just looking through the project reports in his hand.

"Bang!"

The office door wasn't fully closed when the secretary, pale-faced and flustered, rushed in, disregarding her usual decorum.

"Mr. Li, something's happened!"

Li Junkai slowly raised his eyes, his brows furrowing slightly. He placed his cigar on the edge of the crystal ashtray, his tone tinged with impatience:

"What a panic! What kind of mess are you in? Is the sky falling down?"

The secretary swallowed hard, took a half-step forward, and reported urgently in a low voice.

"Mr. Li, Xiao Wang, whom we hired to impersonate a ghost at Xiangshui Bay, has been caught! We just received word that he's been taken to the police station for questioning!"

"Um?"

Li Junkai leaned forward slightly, the nonchalant expression on his face faded, and a clear look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He tapped his fingertips lightly on the table and muttered to himself, "How could they catch this? The police have been searching for two or three nights without any results. Who exactly tracked him down?"

The secretary's heart pounded, her expression growing increasingly tense. She leaned forward a few more inches and whispered a reminder:

"Mr. Li, now that Xiao Wang has been arrested, will the police follow the leads and trace it back to you? What if he implicates you...?"

Upon hearing this, Li Junkai scoffed and laughed disdainfully, leaning back in his chair, crossing his legs, looking completely confident.

"Found out about me? What are you afraid of?"

He casually flicked his cigarette ash, his tone utterly certain: "At most, he's just causing trouble and disturbing public order. He'll be detained for a maximum of ten days or so before being released."

"Xiao Wang has done a lot of things for me. As long as he's not an idiot, he'll never betray me."

He paused, his eyes turning cold, and continued, "Even if he's really out of his mind and making wild accusations, so what if he gives me his name? What direct evidence do I have that he can't possibly have?"

"I always used third-party intermediaries for transfers. There are no chat logs, no witnesses or physical evidence of direct instruction. It's all just talk. What can the police do to me?"

The secretary stood there for a moment, pondering carefully. Her tense nerves relaxed slightly, and she nodded.

"You're right. Without solid evidence, it's really difficult to implicate you."

A smug smile played on Li Junkai's lips as he traced lines on the desk with his fingertips and asked, "By the way, how many properties have we acquired in the Xiangshui Bay villa district so far?"

The secretary immediately composed herself, quickly checked the data on her tablet, and respectfully replied:

"Mr. Li, we have acquired three villas at low prices. Taking advantage of the panic caused by the ghost stories, we managed to lower the prices for each one. Roughly calculated, the net profit after all the villas are sold is expected to be more than ten million."

"What a pity." Li Junkai shook his head slightly, his tone full of regret, but his eyes concealed greed.

"If Xiao Wang could hold on for another three to five days, he could eat several more sets. This kind of money comes so easily, it's really easy to make, haha."

"Mr. Li, you are truly a business genius; you can even come up with such a brilliant idea."

The secretary quickly seized the opportunity to flatter, "By creating panic to drive down property prices, buying low and selling high, most people would never think of such a method."

Li Junkai waved his hand dismissively, the smile on his face slowly fading, and a name suddenly flashed through his mind.

"Speaking of which, have you finished investigating all the information about Lin Yuan that I asked you to compile?"

"It was all sorted out a few days ago, Mr. Li. The documents are in your desk drawer."

"Oh?"

Upon hearing the sound, Li Junkai reached into the drawer of his desk and took out a thick paper file.

The cover of the file had the words "Lin Yuan" printed on it. He opened the file and carefully read through each page.

As he watched, Li Junkai's expression kept changing, from nonchalant at first to surprised and suspicious, his brows furrowing tightly together.

"Mr. Li," the secretary said softly, "this Lin Yuan is probably not as simple as he seems."

"The information says that he was unremarkable before the age of 26. People said he had no ability and was even considered a good-for-nothing. But starting this year, he has undergone a complete transformation."

Li Junkai's gaze was fixed on the lines of text in the file, and he murmured to himself, "This kid's medical skills are actually this amazing? He cured so many difficult and complicated diseases?"

"That's right, boss." The secretary nodded in agreement. "He's extremely famous at Lin City Hospital now, and many powerful and influential people specifically seek him out for treatment."

"Not only that, we also found that Lin Yuan has an affiliated technology company called Yuanyao Technology."

"With a registered capital of ten million, its development momentum is very rapid. Not long ago, it even snatched an important order from our company."

The secretary's tone grew increasingly serious: "Furthermore, Jiang Su, a key technical expert at Lantian Technology, has also been poached by Yuanyao Technology. Mr. Li, we must take precautions against this competitor as early as possible."

The office fell silent instantly, with only the faint sounds of city traffic coming from outside the window.

Li Junkai closed the file, tossed it back onto the table, pressed his fingers to his temple, and fell into deep thought.

In his original expectation, Lin Yuan was just an ordinary kid who got along well with a bit of luck, and that he had a grudge against him because of Lin Wanrou.

But after reading the investigation report, I realized that this person was far more complex than I had imagined. He had medical expertise and a technology company in his hands. He was powerful and capable, and was not someone who could be easily bullied.

Upon careful reflection, he realized that he and Lin Yuan had no deep-seated hatred for each other; the root of all their entanglements lay with Lin Wanrou.

Now it seems that I probably have no chance with Lin Wanrou anymore.

The identity of the young master of the Li family is ingrained in his bones. Li Junkai would not act rashly for the sake of a woman and actively provoke a powerful opponent of unknown strength.

If you can't afford to offend them, then try to avoid them.

It's best not to initiate a direct conflict with Lin Yuan.

Having made up his mind, he looked up at the secretary in front of him.

"Go and call Xiaoyue to my office."

"Yes," the secretary replied, turning and leaving the office.

Not long after, the office door was pushed open again.

Shen Shuangyue, dressed in a well-tailored dark business suit, walked in with an upright posture and a cool expression.

Her long, jet-black hair was neatly tied back, and she exuded an aura of well-trained competence.

She lowered her eyes slightly and asked respectfully, "Boss, you wanted to see me?"

Li Junkai looked at her, a gentle smile appearing on his face, and softened his tone: "Xiaoyue, you've been by my side for over ten years now, haven't you?"

"Yes, boss." Shen Shuangyue said softly, "I was adopted by the Li family when I was ten years old, and I've been by your side ever since."

She is an orphan who was raised and supported by the Li family from a young age. She received rigorous training in various business, intelligence, and social skills. She is an elite honed by the Li family and is loyal to the Li family and Li Junkai.

"That's perfect."

Li Junkai sat up slightly, his expression solemn. "I have a very important task to entrust to you now."

Shen Shuangyue raised her eyes, her gaze firm: "Boss, please give your instructions."

"I want you to join Far East Technology."

As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Shuangyue trembled slightly, a hint of panic flashing in her eyes. Her voice lowered, carrying a barely perceptible trace of grievance: "Boss...don't you want me anymore?"

Seeing this, Li Junkai waved his hand and smiled reassuringly, "What are you thinking? How could I not want you?"

"This is just a business strategy. Once you join Yuanyao Technology, perform well, understand the company's internal situation, gather intelligence on our competitors, and seize every opportunity to climb up the corporate ladder. Do you understand what I mean?"

After hearing the explanation, Shen Shuangyue's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, settled back down, and she nodded emphatically: "I understand, boss."

"That's good. Go and prepare for your onboarding."

"Yes."

Shen Shuangyue bowed slightly, turned around, and slowly walked out of the office.

Watching Shen Shuangyue's figure gradually disappear through the doorway, Li Junkai's gentle smile slowly faded, and a deep, enigmatic curve appeared at the corner of his mouth.

He picked up the teacup on the table and took a small sip.

"Lin Yuan, you are indeed quite interesting."

"A head-on confrontation is too risky, so let's find out your strengths and weaknesses first."

"Shen Shuangyue is the nail I planted inside Yuanyao Technology."

A cold glint flashed in his eyes.

This is what it means to plan ahead and prepare for a rainy day.
