A master of both medicine and martial arts, he picked up a beautiful CEO as his wife.

The matter of the Li family's property being confiscated gradually faded away.

The truth behind the shocking and heart-wrenching murder case has come to light. Lin Zhenshan personally visited the family, and with the help of several elders, he thoroughly cleared up the injustices suffered by Madam Zhao and the innocence of Lin Yuqing that night in Dongyang's high society!

In an instant, those who had previously mocked and insulted Lin Yuqing and joined the rumors realized what was going on and began to lament that the mother and daughter had been betrayed by the Li family. They also began to praise the "Divine Doctor Ye" who had stepped forward to save them, even though he was covered in dirty water!

The Lin family's behemoth was not capsized; on the contrary, it took advantage of the chaos to increase its prestige.

On the Zhu family's side, after Zhu Hongsheng learned that Ye Feng had saved their lives twice and rescued them from danger, he forced the Zhu family to sign an alliance business contract with the Lin family!

This business alliance contract was like a stone thrown into a lake, creating a ripple effect among businessmen throughout the Dongyang business district and some nearby cities.

It should be noted that in the past, the four major families of Lin, Qin, Li, and Zhao in Dongyang were evenly matched and checked each other.

But now the Li family has been brought down and purged, the Qin family has been dragged down by the kidnapping incident and its strength has been greatly reduced. Its reputation has been ruined and it can no longer recover. The Zhao family's gloves were shaken off after a couple of attempts. Seeing the fate of the Li family, they were frightened and retreated, not daring to make a move again.

Two of the four major families were missing, one was injured, and the Zhao family, who were left huddled together watching the battle, were the only remaining family.

The Lin and Zhu families signed a business alliance, and with the combined strength, channels, and connections of the two families, they immediately became the undisputed number one business power in Dongyang.

Those who used to look down on Lin Yuqing and underestimate the Lin family's internal and external troubles, waiting to see a good show, are now sending invitations to celebrate.

Lin Yuqing's position as president is now secure, and she no longer needs to worry about being coveted by others.

However, those with keen eyes can see that the real manipulator behind Lin's success today is Ye Feng, the mysterious and unpredictable "special advisor" who has always stood behind President Lin.

After a whole night, the guests had all left, and the manor was unusually quiet.

Ye Feng called Lin Yuqing into the pavilion.

The moonlight, like water, shone on him and on her.

Lin Yuqing was startled by his unusually serious expression: "What do you want from me? You're acting all mysterious!"

Ye Feng remained silent for a moment before slowly saying, "Do you remember what happened that day in the warehouse when you rushed over and hugged me, completely at a loss?"

Lin Yuqing's cheeks flushed, and she stuck out her tongue, saying, "Who...who pounced on you? I was just afraid you'd die, so the Lin family lost a bodyguard!"

Ye Feng, rarely one to interrupt, said sternly, "Lin Yuqing."

"I should have been killed by that death calamity that day."

Lin Yuqing's smile instantly froze on her face.

"You saved me," Ye Feng said, enunciating each word clearly. "You possess something called 'True Extreme Yin'—a body that appears only once every thousand years, extremely cold and pure. It's the only thing in this world that can restrain my blazing, scorching physique, the only thing that can avert my death!"

"When you held me that day, the yin energy emanating from you naturally flowed into my body, suppressing the calamity that almost cost me my life!"

Lin Yuqing listened to him in astonishment, her eyes widening in disbelief.

"You mean me..." Lin Yuqing's voice trembled, stammering, "I...I'm the one who can save your life! The 'key' you've been searching for for half a year is me?"

"Yes, it's you." Ye Feng looked at her with a complex mix of madness and the joy of finding what he had lost. "From the moment you picked me up on the street when I came down the mountain, it was you! But I was blind to your true feelings for half a year, and I mistook someone else for you."

Lin Yuqing stood blankly in the moonlight, her mind buzzing, completely lost.

She recalled the way he had turned pale and clutched his heart for the past six months, and her ambiguous, half-joking remark about a "six-month death sentence"—she had initially thought he was just making it up…

The thought of He Huai-ren's words to her in public at Luming Manor that night, "You are facing an imminent death," still makes her heart pound.

Thinking of how pale and wan he became each time he saved someone's life with a breath of fresh air, I realized how he always looked.

It turns out he was right; he wasn't joking.

It turns out that there really were days when he had one foot in the grave and was almost dead, yet he still took the time to shield her from the wind and rain and clean up one mess after another for her.

And this crucial key, the "True Yin," that could save him—a key he had painstakingly searched for across the world and almost missed—

It was her from beginning to end!

She picked him up from the street and took him home; she inexplicably kept him; she repeatedly faced life and death, entrusting her back to him—

All of this seemed like a cruel joke of fate, yet also a destiny or preordained.

Suddenly, Lin Yuqing felt a lump in her throat and her eyes welled up with tears. She didn't know what was making her so excited that she was about to break down and cry.

"Then...then...is your life... over...?"

Lin Yuqing grabbed his sleeve immediately, her voice trembling with emotion, as if she were about to cry.

Ye Feng was moved when he saw Lin Yuqing looking nervous, scared, and on the verge of tears.

"Silly girl," Ye Feng chuckled, stroking Lin Yuqing's hair. "Why are you crying? It's a wonderful thing."

"From now on..." He looked at her, his usually carefree eyes unusually serious in the moonlight, making her feel a little hot to the touch. "You'd better stay home obediently and not wander around. Your life is precious, you know. One and a half of my lives are tied to you inside!"

"Oh! I understand!" Lin Yuqing's face flushed at Ye Feng's words, but she still laughed after she finished crying. "Hmm! Hehehehe, hmm!" She nodded vigorously.

"And what about you?" She suddenly looked up, her eyes sparkling and watery, yet also revealing a defiant spirit: "Dr. Ye, are you now a 'special consultant' earning 100,000 yuan a month? Haha! Well then, from now on, you'd better be obedient and do exactly what I say, right?"

"Oh," Ye Feng chuckled, "So you're starting to take advantage of me now?"

"Ha! Of course!" Lin Yuqing finally seized the opportunity to turn the tables, and proudly raised her chin. "Great Doctor Ye, you are the most powerful doctor in the world. From now on, you will have to listen to me and follow my lead."

"Of course!" Ye Feng chuckled helplessly, then gave her head a hard tug. "My boss, my savior, are you okay now?"

They looked at each other and laughed.

The bright moonlight bathed the entire courtyard. At this moment, there were no more death traps, no more fierce business battles, no more flashing swords. In this small pavilion, after more than half a year of sharing weal and woe, two hearts had quietly drawn closer, and for the first time, they were so close, so warm…

The enormous secret about that "key" has finally been completely revealed.

But more than a secret, what had unknowingly taken deep root in their hearts were two words—

heart.
