Beautiful CEO's Super Expert

Su Chen returned to Lin Ruoxue's villa, and it was already after nine o'clock, Mrs. Wang had gone to bed, but the light in Lin Ruoxue's upstairs study was still on.

"Lin Ruoxue, this CEO's job really isn't easy!"

Su Chen sighed and was about to go back to his own room when he suddenly heard a series of low groans coming from the upstairs study, sounding very painful.

Su Chen couldn't help but stop in his tracks, just in time to hear a "thud," as if something had been knocked over onto the floor.

"What's happened?"

Startled, Su Chen quickly sprinted up the stairs and pushed the door to the study wide open.

He saw a chair toppled over to one side, while Lin Ruoxue was sitting on the ground, clutching her stomach, deeply furrowing her brow, and beads of cold sweat were forming on her forehead, looking very much in pain.

"What's wrong?" Su Chen quickly set the chair upright, then helped Lin Ruoxue to sit down.

"Stomachache, my old problem." Lin Ruoxue asked with particular curiosity, "How did you get here?"

"I heard some noise from downstairs." Su Chen's face showed a look of concern, "Does it hurt a lot?"

"It's nothing, it will pass in a while."

Lin Ruoxue said through gritted teeth, suddenly another wave of sharp pain struck, causing her to involuntarily grimace.

"You're in this state, and it's 'nothing.'" Su Chen put on a stern face, "Give me your hand."

"What for?"

"Just extend it when I say so, why ask so many questions!" Su Chen retorted without any pleasantries.

This was the first time Su Chen had spoken to Lin Ruoxue in this manner, and she was momentarily stunned.

By the time she came to her senses, her delicate hand was already in Su Chen's grasp, and she could clearly feel Su Chen stroking her hand.

Really, Su Chen couldn't be blamed; Lin Ruoxue's skin was just too good, silky and tender.

Lin Ruoxue had never been touched by a man like this, she quickly tried to retract her hand, only to have Su Chen catch it once again.

"Don't move, I'm going to take your pulse."

Without any embarrassment about having just touched her hand, Su Chen rested a finger gently on Lin Ruoxue's wrist.

"Huh? You know how to do this, too?"

Lin Ruoxue's beautiful eyes were flashing non-stop, surprised as she looked at Su Chen.

"Nonsense, I am the Divine Doctor, nicknamed the Ghost Doctor, and my consultation fee starts at five million US dollars."

Su Chen curled his lips, stating indifferently.

This part was no lie by Su Chen; he was indeed known as the Ghost Doctor, partly because his medical methods were unpredictable like spirits, and partly because he could snatch people back from death's door.

The one thing that few people knew was that the Netherworld Hall Master and the Ghost Doctor were the same person, something the outside world would never guess.

"Psh, boasting, nobody believes that!" Lin Ruoxue sneered at Su Chen's words, "Five million US dollars? Who would spend that much money on medical treatment?"

"When a person's life is nearly gone, how much money do you think they wouldn't spend?"

Su Chen spoke offhandedly, but his expression was growing more serious.

"What's wrong?"

Lin Ruoxue also noticed Su Chen's solemn expression, and couldn't help but feel a "thump" in her heart.

"It's nothing serious, just acute gastritis."

Su Chen tried to downplay the situation to keep Lin Ruoxue from worrying.

Actually, his heart was heavy, because in addition to the sudden outbreak of acute gastritis, he discovered that there seemed to be an extremely cold energy lurking within Lin Ruoxue's body.

Since he was only at the First Layer of Qi Refinement, he couldn't use True Qi to investigate what that thing truly was, but his instincts told him it was terrifying.

If he wanted to help Lin Ruoxue clear that extremely cold energy from her body, he would need to be at least at the Sixth Layer to have a chance.

The only consolation was that, for the moment, this energy had not caused any substantive harm to Lin Ruoxue's body.

It was like a seed, lurking inside Lin Ruoxue, seemingly slumbering, yet also appearing to be slowly nurturing something.

"I really can't stand the pain anymore, just take me to the hospital."

Lin Ruoxue had intended to endure, but the pain was too intense, making her feel almost unable to hold on.

"With me here, the Divine Doctor, why go to a hospital?"

Su Chen curled his lips, indifferent to the many big shots who queued up for his medical attention. Now he was actively offering to treat Lin Ruoxue, yet she didn't believe in him.

"Please stop joking, okay? I'm really in a lot of pain."

Lin Ruoxue covered her stomach with one hand and propped herself up on the sofa with the other, her speech was already somewhat difficult.

"How about we make a wager?"

Su Chen became annoyed upon hearing Lin Ruoxue's words, feeling as if his status as the Ghost Doctor was being equated to some street swindler in her eyes.

"What kind of wager?"

Lin Ruoxue lifted her head slightly, her slender pale neck raising as she looked at Su Chen, curiosity in her beautiful eyes.

Su Chen's lips curled into a slight, roguish smile, as he said lightly,

"Let me try, and I guarantee to cure you within fifteen minutes. If I can't, you can demand something of me, no take-backs; if I do, you'll have to agree to a request of mine, no take-backs."

"Fifteen minutes?" Lin Ruoxue's beautiful eyes suddenly widened, "Are you kidding?"

"Do I look like I'm joking?"

Su Chen felt frankly annoyed, thinking how he, the Divine Doctor, had been reduced to using such tactics to get someone to agree to treatment.

However, considering the patient was his wife, he felt slightly better.

"Alright, I'll let you try. But we need to agree on the requests first, in case you ask for something excessive..."

Although Lin Ruoxue believed Su Chen couldn't win, she still mentioned it just in case.

What if he actually won and asked her to do that sort of embarrassing thing? Could she really agree to it?

"Fine, then state your request first."

Su Chen didn't mind, because he knew he couldn't possibly lose. If he couldn't cure such a minor illness, he might as well drown himself in a bath.

After thinking for a moment, a sharp glint flashed in Lin Ruoxue's eyes as she stared at Su Chen and said,

"If I really win, you tell me your true identity and all your secrets!"

Recently, Lin Ruoxue had noticed her husband becoming more mysterious, and his identity seemed not to be as simple as it appeared.

Lin Ruoxue had tried to probe into it, but Su Chen clearly wasn't planning to tell her, and she couldn't do anything about it.

If she could take this opportunity to get the information she wanted, then it couldn't be better.

Su Chen was momentarily stunned. He hadn't expected Lin Ruoxue to suddenly make such a request, and for a moment didn't know how to reply.

Lin Ruoxue didn't miss Su Chen's reaction, and her heart suddenly jolted!

Her husband in name indeed had secrets!
