In the VIP ward of Incheon Hospital.

Wu Ge helped the person who was injured by her up. Her eyes were full of anxiety. "Are you okay?"

Tian Ziyang drank a glass of water and said, "Don't be so nervous. I'm fine." As he spoke, he squeezed Wu Ge's hand, and his eyes were sharp.

Wu Ge hesitated for a long time, then said in a low voice, "I sent the photos."

Tian Ziyang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Little Ge, no matter what, thank you. But since we've already done it, there's no turning back. I hope you can help me, okay? "

Wu Ge nodded.

[Master, what are they talking about?]

[Why don't you check it out? It's a good opportunity to test your upgrade function.]

[Okay.]

Before the System could find out the reason, it saw the blind spot in the surveillance camera and rushed to the hospital.

[The System looked at Gou Liang with some worry. Master, are you angry? This person is too hateful. He actually did plastic surgery to look like you. He's really evil …]

[Gou Liang said calmly, "I'm not angry."]

The System looked at him suspiciously, then went to check Wu Ge and Tian Ziyang's strangeness.

Gou Liang, who found out the truth, was speechless. Did he watch too many idol dramas?

But …

Looking at Qin Zhai, who rushed over without stopping, he was speechless. Maybe this guy really has the IQ of the male lead in the idol dramas.

"Uncle Qin."

Wu Ge had been waiting outside the hospital early in the morning.

At 15 years old, he looked very thin and small. Now, in front of Qin Zhai, he was even more well-behaved like a good student. Who would have thought that he was actually a troublemaker?

Qin Zhai did not ask him about the incident of him hitting someone with his car. She nodded coldly.

Wu Ge said with a guilty conscience, "I'm sorry, Uncle Qin. I didn't do it on purpose. I just wanted to touch the car. But I was also shocked when I saw Tian Ziyang. I didn't expect there to be such a similar person in the world … Uh, Uncle Qin, why do you look at me like that? "

He was lying.

It was impossible for him to deceive Qin Zhai with his Taoism skills. The little expectation in his heart disappeared completely.

Just as he was about to say something, Qin Zhai suddenly saw a person walking out of the hospital in front of him. He recognized at a glance that this was his blind date tomorrow.

Gou Liang was talking on the phone. He leaned against the car door and chuckled. Qin Zhai was a little dazed even though they were nearly a thousand meters apart.

The wheelchair suddenly stopped. The butler and Wu Ge were a little confused, and the bodyguards who followed them were even more vigilant.

Qin Zhai looked at Gou Liang and wondered who he was talking to. He seemed to be in a good mood.

Seeing that he was about to drive away, Qin Zhai said, "Push me there."

"Yes, sir."

The butler did as he was told.

Wu Ge still didn't understand the situation. "Uncle Qin, aren't we going to see Tian Ziyang? He looks … "

Qin Zhai ignored him. The butler, who was observing his expression, shook his head at him and successfully shut him up.

Gou Liang was turning the key when he suddenly heard someone knocking on the car window. He suppressed the smile on his face and rolled down the car window as usual. When he saw Qin Zhai, he showed just the right amount of surprise.

"Hello, Dr. Qiu."

Qin Zhai's expression was more formal than his greeting, revealing a trace of tension.

[Ding! The target's favorability has been updated. Current favorability: 50!]

"Mr. Qin? Why are you here? Did I remember the time wrongly, or are you in a hurry to see me? "

He smiled. At that moment, Qin Zhai could almost hear his own heartbeat. It was out of order and restless, telling him directly that it was him, the person in front of him.

Seeing that he was staring at him in a daze, Gou Liang stopped smiling and said in a normal tone, "Just kidding, Mr. Qin, you're here for business, right? I won't disturb you. "

"Where are you going?"

He was no longer smiling. All of a sudden, he became unapproachable, making Qin Zhai somewhat uncertain again.

His Xiao Kener was born with a smile. Even when he was not smiling, his face was overflowing with sunshine, making people feel warm and happy at all times.

But seeing that he was about to leave, Qin Zhai subconsciously urged him to stay.

"Let's not talk about the fact that we are not officially dating yet. Even if we are, I think I should have my own private space, right?"

Gou Liang did not hide his dissatisfaction, but Qin Zhai laughed instead. "I just want to ask Dr. Qiu if I can take up your private time now. I happen to have nothing else to do. Since we've met, why don't we get to know each other in advance? "

Gou Liang glanced at his legs. "My car might not be convenient."

Qin Zhai's smile froze, and the butler's expression changed all of a sudden.

Before the butler could blame Gou Liang for his rudeness, Gou Liang continued, "Why don't we go to your car?"

Qin Zhai's expression suddenly returned to normal. "Please."

Seeing that Qin Zhai was about to leave with a stranger in the car, Wu Ge, who was confused the whole time, finally couldn't help but ask, "Uncle Qin, where are you going? Aren't we going to — "

"Lao Liu, you stay here and take care of it."

Qin Zhai gave the butler a look. The butler paused for a moment, then nodded in understanding.

Before the car door closed, Wu Ge heard the stranger say, "Do you have something to do? Am I holding you up?"

"No, it's not important."

The car left without hesitation. Wu Ge: "…"

How could this be? The plot was completely different from what they had expected!

In the car, Gou Liang told the driver the location. For a moment, he and Qin Zhai were speechless.

He looked at Qin Zhai's legs and still couldn't accept the changes that had happened to him. Great Lord God, are the laws of this world really so abnormal that even you are playing with self-abuse?

The Sea of Consciousness was turbulent. Sensing the sadness hidden under its master's calmness, the System swallowed its saliva and became nervous for no reason.

Qin Zhai saw this and asked, "Do you mind?"

Gou Liang came back to his senses and waved his right hand. "Mr. Liu told you about my situation, right? What about you? Do you mind? "

Qin Zhai shook his head. Gou Liang said, "Me too … So does this mean that we passed the blind date?"

Qin Zhai opened his mouth but didn't give a definite answer.

He looked at Gou Liang. His indifference, his coldness, his smile, and even the rise and fall of his voice gave him an inexplicable sense of familiarity. He was almost sure that he was the one he wanted.

But … What if it was just an illusion?

Because of this unforgettable feeling, he didn't dare to make a conclusion.

Gou Liang smiled. "Why, do I not look like him now?"

Qin Zhai's expression changed. He squinted his eyes. "Since you know, why did you accept it?"

Gou Liang paused and suddenly couldn't help but laugh. "Mr. Qin, how long are we going to continue this mode of questioning? I'm not your opponent, so there's no need to be so confrontational, right? "

Qin Zhai loosened his grip and said, "I want to know the reason why you agreed to the blind date."

Gou Liang said, "Since you didn't choose me, is there a need for me to answer this question?"

"Now, you're the one who's fighting with me." Qin Zhai reminded him. She could not help but smile. "Are you angry?"

Gou Liang said without much sincerity, "My tone wasn't good, sorry."

Qin Zhai said, "Why are you angry? Before you agreed to the blind date, didn't you already know my purpose? Since that's the case, you must have your own purpose. Tell me about it. "

Gou Liang said, "I know you're rich, and I need money."

"What do you need money for?"

Qin Zhai was not satisfied with this answer.

Gou Liang said, "I want to cure my hands, and I already have a certain direction. I need someone to invest in my laboratory. If this project is successful, I might be able to cure your legs. "

Qin Zhai's eyes darkened. "So, you're not here to go on a blind date with me."

Gou Liang laughed. "That's right, I'm here to apply for a job. I want to be your personal doctor, Mr. Qin. "

The word "personal doctor" made Qin Zhai's heart skip a beat. He pretended to be dissatisfied and said to Gou Liang, "I don't like people who approach me with ulterior motives."

"Mr. Qin, that's a serious double standard." Gou Liang rested his forehead on his hand and looked at him. "Mr. Qin, don't you have ulterior motives for approaching me? I thought you would appreciate honest people more. Besides, you took the initiative to come to me. I'm just making use of you. "

"You'll be at a disadvantage if you negotiate like this."

Qin Zhai was now completely sure that he was angry, but for some reason, he felt a little happy.

"Didn't the negotiation end a long time ago? I'm just stating my failed attempt. "

"Are you that angry?" Qin Zhai pinched his cold face in amusement and said, "Did I say something wrong?"

Gou Liang waved his hand away. "Mr. Qin, let me remind you that our blind date has already failed. Don't touch me. "

"When did this happen? I don't think I've given you an answer yet."

"Hesitation is the best answer."

Gou Liang thought to himself, "You came here without hesitation for a plastic surgery face. Now you're facing me like this, and you still want me to smile? Hmph. "

"Your temper is really bad. It's completely different from …"

But the more he looked at him, the more he felt that he was Xiao Kener.

Was this really just an illusion?

"Then I'm sorry to disappoint you."

Gou Liang shrugged.

Qin Zhai said, "What if I say that I agree to you being my partner? Maybe we can try to get to know each other better. "

"Mr. Qin, I think we can change the way we get along."

Gou Liang said, "If we work together, I can unconditionally comply with all your requests. But at the same time, I hope that you can invest in my project. Even if I disappoint you, you have to continue funding me until I give up or succeed. "

"It sounds like I'm at a disadvantage."

"How can that be? What if I'm the person you like?"

Gou Liang looked at him teasingly.

Qin Zhai reflexively raised his hand to rub his head and comfort him. "You don't like me now?"

"Just talk. Don't touch me."

Gou Liang looked at him with disdain. Qin Zhai laughed. "Didn't you just say that you'll unconditionally comply with all my requests? Now you want to go back on your word?"

"You're agreeing?!"

Gou Liang's eyes lit up and were full of surprise.

Qin Zhai nodded. Gou Liang said, "Then we'll sign an agreement later. You can't go back on your word."

Qin Zhai smiled helplessly when she saw that he could see through her schemes at a glance. She said, "You haven't answered my question."

"That question is no longer valid. You're my big financial backer now."

Hearing this, he was admitting that he didn't have a good impression of him before.

Qin Zhai was about to ask him if he would agree to such an agreement if other people invested in his project. However, the driver reminded him that they were about to arrive at their destination. He had no choice but to stop talking first.

Gou Liang pushed Qin Zhai into the dessert shop. The shop manager greeted him warmly. "Dr. Qiu, you're here. Oh, you brought a friend today? Welcome, welcome. "

Gou Liang also greeted her. He pushed Qin Zhai to his designated seat and sat down opposite him. "What do you want to eat? I'll treat you."

Qin Zhai: "You like sweets?"

"Can't I?"

Gou Liang's face looked even colder than Qin Zhai when he wasn't smiling. He didn't look like a sweet dog at all. However, his confident tone made it impossible to refute.

"Of course, he … also likes sweets."

"Oh, what a coincidence."

Gou Liang replied with a dry smile.

The shop manager quickly served the desserts and said, "We'll have to trouble you again this time, Dr. Qiu."

"Sister Wang, you're welcome."

Gou Liang was there to try the new product today. After tasting it, he gave several professional suggestions. The shop manager and the chef behind her nodded and thanked him again. When they left, they packed several desserts for Gou Liang.

When they got back to the car, Gou Liang, who hadn't had enough, opened a dessert and couldn't wait to stuff it into his mouth. The sweet but not greasy taste made him close his eyes happily.

Qin Zhai was stunned. His Adam's apple moved a few times. "Xiao Kener …"

"Yes?"

Gou Liang responded. When he saw Qin Zhai's eyes widen, he pretended to be confused and asked him, "Mr. Qin, you called me?"

Qin Zhai's eyes dimmed a little. He said, "Nothing."

"You should eat too. I said I'd treat you."

Qin Zhai looked at his generous face and laughed. "So you're offering Buddha with borrowed flowers. Dr. Qiu, you're too sincere."

"Thank you for the compliment."

Seeing him eat, Gou Liang asked him, "Is it good?"

Qin Zhai was a little surprised. He nodded and said, "It's not bad. It's as good as Xiao Kener's … I mean, it's not as good as his, but it's still rare."

Gou Liang was happy. Qin Zhai was definitely wearing a lover's filter.

In this big wide world, there were many masters. Even if Gou Liang was made up of masters, there were always people who had special talents in certain aspects and could bring completely different surprises.

Take the chef of this dessert shop for example. Gou Liang was amazed when he ate it for the first time.

He told Qin Zhai about his experience of discovering delicious food. "A few days ago, I accidentally passed by this shop and couldn't walk after smelling the fragrance. After eating, I found out that my phone and wallet were stolen on the subway. Fortunately, the manager was a good person and didn't take my money. "

At that time, he was lonely in the crowd. Without a big goal, he doubted the meaning of wandering in this world. He had never been such an impatient person, but he couldn't control the panic in his heart. Later, he happened to come across this dessert shop. When the sweet and soft food entered his mouth, he was immediately cured.

Delicious food had such a magical charm.

At that time, Gou Liang thought that he would bring the Lord God here to experience it in the future.

Later, Gou Liang made two new desserts for the dessert shop to repay his debt and became their food taster.

Qin Zhai glanced at his face and probably knew why the manager was so generous.

Gou Liang said and suddenly laughed. "… I didn't know that Mr. Qin also liked desserts."

It was only then that Qin Zhai realized that she had already finished the box of desserts while listening to Gou Liang's words.

"I'm used to it."

He felt that it was a little inappropriate and changed the topic. "You don't have to be so formal. Aren't we in a cooperative relationship now?"

"Then what do you want me to call you? Qin Zhai, Old Qin, Dear? Or … Hubby? "

He deliberately made fun of him, but Qin Zhai's heart suddenly beat faster. Looking at the dimples on Gou Liang's cheeks, he couldn't bear it and said, "Call me by my name first."

Gou Liang laughed.

When they arrived at the door, Gou Liang said before getting out of the car, "Let's make an appointment tomorrow to finalize the contract?"

"Now …"

"Tomorrow."

It was better to leave some time for him to go home and deal with those two troublesome things. He didn't want to get involved at all.

Qin Zhai thought about it and nodded. "Then pack up tonight and move in with me tomorrow."

Originally, he came this time to help him move.

Gou Liang raised his eyebrows. "Living together now? Aren't you afraid that it's too soon? What if you try and find out that I'm not the person you're looking for? "

Qin Zhai looked at him quietly. "The first clause of the contract is to cooperate with me unconditionally."

Gou Liang: "…"

Qin Zhai realized that he was a little too cold and serious. He coughed and said, "I'll pick you up tomorrow."

"Okay."

Gou Liang waved and left. Qin Zhai looked at his back until the housekeeper called and interrupted his concentration.

The housekeeper said, "Sir, it has been verified that Tian Ziyang has undergone plastic surgery."
