Peerless Medical Emperor

Ma John clutched the wound on his face, his voice trembling as he said, ”I... I understand.”

Ma Dahua snorted coldly and turned to leave the basement. ’Chen Qingdi might have taken me on as a subordinate, but he doesn’t fully trust me,’ he thought. ’This test was just to make me more loyal.’ A wave of emotion washed over him. He knew perfectly well that in this world, only the strong survive. And he had been striving for that strength all along.

Returning to Chen Qingdi’s side, Ma Dahua told him everything that had just happened. Chen Qingdi gave a slight nod. ”You did well.”

Ma Dahua replied respectfully, ”Thank you for the praise, Boss.”

Chen Qingdi waved his hand. ”Alright, you can go.”

Ma Dahua was thrilled. ’I finally got a sign from the boss.’ This was a huge encouragement for him. He hurried back to the basement and saw Ma John sitting on a chair, his face pale and his eyes filled with terror.

Ma Dahua walked up to him and sneered, ”Ma John, look at you now.” He stood before Ma John, looking down on him imperiously.

Ma John’s lips trembled. ”What do you want?”

Ma Dahua laughed. ”Don’t worry, I won’t kill you. At least, not right now. But I want you to hand over that card with ten million US dollars on it.”

Ma John’s expression changed. ”You... you should know, half of that is mine.”

Ma Dahua said coldly, ”So what? It’s mine now.” He grabbed Ma John by the collar and said viciously, ”If you don’t hand it over, I’ll make you disappear from this world.”

Resigned, Ma John took out the card. ”You... you bastard,” he said furiously. ”Sooner or later, I’ll make you regret this.”

Ma Dahua took the card, a satisfied smile spreading across his face. He turned and walked toward the door, then looked back at Ma John. ”Enjoy what little time you have left.”

After leaving the basement, Ma Dahua ordered his men to take care of Ma John and make sure no one found out. He then returned to his office, secretly celebrating that his plan had finally succeeded.

He picked up his phone and called Chen Qingdi.

”Boss, I’m back.”

”Mm, how did things go?” Chen Qingdi’s voice sounded very calm.

”Everything’s been taken care of,” Ma Dahua replied.

”Very good.” Chen Qingdi paused for a moment before adding, ”You can keep the ten million US dollars.”

Ma Dahua was stunned. He hadn’t expected the boss to be so generous. He was secretly delighted. ”Thank you, Boss.”

”Alright, get some rest. I’ll contact you when I have a mission for you.” With that, Chen Qingdi hung up.

Ma Dahua put down the phone, his heart filled with excitement and anticipation. ’I’ve finally earned the boss’s trust and favor,’ he thought. ’I’m sure I’ll have more chances to show what I can do from now on.’

Meanwhile, far away in Hai Province, Chen Qingdi was also thinking about his next move. He was well aware that in this world, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests.

His relationship with Ma Dahua was no different. However, he wasn’t worried that Ma Dahua would betray him, because he trusted his own judgment. On the contrary, he felt Ma Dahua was a young man with great potential who was bound to achieve great things in the future.

For the next few days, Ma Dahua waited for Chen Qingdi’s call. He knew the boss would have an important mission for him. Finally, one evening, the call came.

”Da Hu, come over to my house,” Chen Qingdi said, his voice calm.

”Yes, Boss. I’ll be right there,” Ma Dahua replied. He knew this mission had to be something out of the ordinary.

Just as Chen Qingdi finished his business, he received a call from his fiancée, Shen Mingyue. Shen Mingyue sounded anxious on the other end of the line. She told Chen Qingdi that her company was being targeted for some reason, causing cash flow problems, and she hoped he could come back to handle it as soon as possible.

Chen Qingdi’s brow furrowed as he listened. Though worried, he felt a surge of resolve. He said to Shen Mingyue, ”Don’t worry, I’ll come back and handle this as soon as I can. Don’t panic. Stay calm. I’ve got this.”

After hanging up, Chen Qingdi turned to see Ma Dahua walk in. Ma Dahua was Chen Qingdi’s loyal subordinate and had always handled various affairs for him. Chen Qingdi knew that although Ma Dahua was rough around the edges, he was a trustworthy person.

”Da Hu, things here are finished. You stay here, arrange the follow-up, and report your progress to me at any time,” Chen Qingdi said composedly from the sofa.

Ma Dahua’s eyes widened, and he expressed his loyalty, ”Cyan Emperor, rest assured, I will handle everything here and keep it in perfect order. No matter what happens, I’ll report it to you.”

Chen Qingdi nodded slightly, satisfied. He knew that with Ma Dahua here, things wouldn’t descend into chaos. He could return to Jinghai to deal with Shen Mingyue’s situation with peace of mind.

Early the next morning, Chen Qingdi took a flight back to Jinghai. As soon as he exited the airport, he saw his confidant, Chen Yuan, who had been waiting for some time with a car. Seeing Chen Qingdi, Chen Yuan immediately hurried over.

”Cyan Emperor, you’re back.” Chen Yuan’s voice held a trace of delight.

”Mm, I know the situation. Let’s head back and see the details for ourselves,” Chen Qingdi said as he got into the car.

The car drove toward Shen Mingyue’s company. The two men were silent the entire way. Upon arriving, Chen Qingdi saw that a crowd had already gathered at the company entrance. He got out of the car, walked inside, and was immediately hit by a tense atmosphere.

When Shen Mingyue saw Chen Qingdi, she immediately rushed over. Her face was a bit haggard, but it couldn’t hide her beauty. She grabbed his hand and said urgently, ”You’re finally back.”

Looking at Shen Mingyue, Chen Qingdi felt a pang in his heart. He gently patted her hand and said, ”Don’t worry. I’ll take care of it.”

Afterward, Chen Qingdi went into the conference room with Shen Mingyue. Inside, he saw several of the company’s senior executives and advisors. They all seemed agitated to see him return.

”Cyan Emperor, you’ve come back at the perfect time. Our company has been targeted by someone recently, and we’re having cash flow problems. We suspect the Lin Group is behind it,” Shen Mingyue said angrily.

Chen Qingdi’s brow furrowed at her words. He pondered for a moment before saying, ”I’ll handle this. I’ll find a solution.”

Over the next few days, Chen Qingdi and Shen Mingyue got busy. They identified the company’s problems and took a series of measures to resolve them. At the same time, Chen Qingdi also launched his own investigation into the Lin Group.
