008. A life-saving favor should naturally be repaid

Lin Wu met the man's seemingly amused gaze, "..."

Turns out he really was a doctor.

Admitting her respect, she casually lifted her hand to shake his as a greeting and then retracted it, saying, "Pleased to meet you."

Bo Yuting's gaze swept over his own hand and, raising an eyebrow, he asked, "May I know, Miss Lin, what brings you to see me?"

Lin Wu spoke in an even tone, "I have a relative who's been hospitalized and I need..."

"Why don't we sit down and talk?"

Bo Yuting suddenly suggested, under Lin Wu's gaze, his hand brushing over his abdomen as it hung by his side.

That was where the man had been injured when they met on the train.

Seeing him so composed last night, not appearing injured at all, she had thought she might have been mistaken then.

Having a favor to ask, Lin Wu naturally nodded, "Sure."

Bo Yuting then turned to the side, making a welcoming gesture.

Lin Wu walked past him and sat on a single-seater sofa, but unexpectedly, Bo Yuting chose a spot on the long couch right next to her, the two sitting very close to each other.

Meeting Lin Wu's gaze, Bo Yuting slightly curled his lips, "Being closer makes it easier to hear. After all, I'm getting on in years and my hearing isn't as good as a young lady like you."

Dean Wu was stunned, doubting his own eyes for a moment.

Just now, Doctor Bo was not in such a good mood, whatever he said was in a cold and indifferent manner, sometimes even a bit impatient between his expressionless demeanor.

Could it be that he had seen wrong before??

He hurriedly said, "Doctor Bo, it's like this..."

"Since it's Miss Lin who has business with me, please, Dean Wu, step outside; I'll speak with the patient's family member myself," Bo Yuting said.

Dean Wu: "Um..."

"Do you have an objection?"

Bo Yuting glanced at Dean Wu.

Dean Wu quickly waved his hands saying he dared not, saw Lin Wu nod as well, and had no choice but to leave the room to them.

After closing the door, Dean Wu suddenly realized something.

That was his office, after all!

...Never mind, can't afford to offend, just let it be.

In the office, Lin Wu got straight to the point, "I'm here for my grandfather, his condition is serious, the attending doctor said it's your area of expertise, and you might have a way."

If it had been someone else, Lin Wu might not have had any hope, and would have immediately sought to find Elder Yang from the medical organization, even if it meant abducting him first and discussing later.

However, facing Bo JiuYue of the Bo Family, Lin Wu thought she might hold onto some hope.

Bo Yuting chuckled softly, "You are aware, I'm injured. Originally, I wasn't planning to treat any patients, taking leave until I'm fully recovered."

Lin Wu paused, then said, "Just name your price, I can afford it."

"What's the rush?" Bo Yuting propped his chin with his long arm, leisurely observing Lin Wu, "Besides, since you're my lifesaver, I naturally can't shirk the favor."

Lin Wu hadn't planned on invoking her act of saving his life.

After all, the man in front of her was from the Bo Family in Beijing, rumored to be unpressured to do things he didn't wish to.

If she were to confront him, she might not come out on top, wasting time that could be used to search for someone from the medical organization.

Lin Wu was silent for a moment, then asked, "Your conditions?"

Bo Yuting clicked his tongue, "Do I look like the kind of person who would make demands on a lifesaver?"

Lin Wu could neither agree nor disagree.

Bo Yuting appeared somewhat exasperated as he dragged out a sigh, then suddenly took out his phone, his slender fingers tapping on the screen a few times before turning it towards Lin Wu.

"Then let's add each other's contact information."

Lin Wu's gaze moved from his phone screen to him without stirring.

Bo Yuting raised his eyebrows, "Otherwise, how do we communicate about the illness?"

Lin Wu immediately took out her own phone to add his contact and labeled it as doctor.

After agreeing on the details, Lin Wu stood up, "I will have someone bring my grandfather's medical information to you."

Thinking of the man's injuries, Lin Wu added, "Thank you for your trouble. As a corresponding repayment, I can give you some Bluescale fragrance that is good for healing wounds."

At this, Bo Yuting's eyes deepened.

He was aware of special fragrances.

Currently, the market acknowledges four types of special fragrances: Whitescale, Greenscale, Bluescale, and Blackscale, with Whitescale being the lowest grade and Blackscale the highest.

Because special fragrances have a significant effect on the human body and are difficult to blend, perfumers are scarce.

The most common on the market is the Whitescale fragrance, Greenscale is rare, Bluescale is even rarer, and Blackscale fragrance is a lone product, never seen before.

Offering him Bluescale fragrance, she was really going all out.

It seems she cares a lot about this elder.

He pushed himself up from the sofa armrest, saying, "That won't be necessary. Bluescale fragrance is precious, Miss Lin should keep it for herself."

He knew of the special fragrance.

Confirming this, Lin Wu pondered for a moment and decided to urge Zheng Qi to hurry things up.

If Zheng Qi's speed wasn't up to par, she would resort to the methods from the dark web.

"I, Lin Wu, never owe people favors, treating my grandfather despite your injury, I should return the favor with interest," Lin Wu left these words behind and then left the office.

Bo Yuting watched her retreating back without saying anything more.

Soon after, Director Wu came in, and, seeing Bo Yuting still standing there, cautiously called out to him.

Bo Yuting came back to his senses, glanced at him indifferently, and asked, "Where's my office?"

Director Wu hurriedly replied, "I'll take you there, it's already been cleaned and prepared!"

Bo Yuting responded with a nonchalant hum and followed Director Wu.

Once in his office, Director Wu cautiously inquired if there was anything unsatisfactory.

Bo Yuting glanced around casually and said, "No. Oh, and about the medical information for Miss Lin's elder, send it over as soon as possible."

Director Wu hadn't expected him to actually agree and was somewhat surprised.

But then he thought, considering Lin Wu's inscrutable nature, it was also expected that she could get Bo Yuting to agree.

Director Wu then left with a word of confirmation.

Bo Yuting had just sat down on the leather sofa when his phone started ringing.

He took it out, answered casually, "Hello?"

"Ninth Master! How is it, are you getting used to the new place?" a jocular male voice came from the other side.

Bo Yuting reclined and covered his abdomen with a hand, replying languidly, "It's acceptable. What's the matter?"

The person on the other end quickly said, "I'm here to inform you of good news! Thanks to my relentless persuasion, my friend has finally agreed to meet you! As soon as I return to the country next week, I'll organize a meeting for you guys right away!"

Bo Yuting hummed in response.

The tone from the other end shifted, and he added, "It's just... I told my friend, you seeking her out might relate to the 5•11 case from years ago."

Hearing this, Bo Yuting's eyes narrowed slightly, his voice dangerous, "Did you really say that?"

The person confessed reluctantly, "Anyway, you would bring it up with my friend sooner or later, it's not harmful for her to know beforehand. Besides... if I hadn't said that, my friend wouldn't have agreed... You don't know, my brother can be very stubborn!"

Bo Yuting snorted lightly, "Then you'd better pray it doesn't impact what I need to do."

After that, he hung up abruptly.
