Chen Yi could no longer use surprise as an expression towards Suo Heng’s many secretaries. Perhaps this was where the pattern lay.
Ji Weiwei smiled at the side. Chen Yi suddenly thought of another question and asked, “That is, what do you do when your boss is not in Yu City? How do you calculate the salary?”
Surely not giving out the salary is not the case, right? This was Chen Yi’s question, but he didn’t say it out loud.
“If the boss is not around, I have nothing to do. It’s just a holiday! As for the salary… It’s more than 20,000 yuan a month. I take it all the time, whether it’s a holiday or not. However, if the boss is around, there might be other benefits.” Ji Weiwei said normally. “Oh right… if the boss is not around, we still have to come over occasionally to clean the office.”
Chen Yi was speechless again when he heard this.
This guy, he worked for less than three months in a year, and his salary was still the same!
If Chen Yi did not know that Ji Weiwei and the boss did not have any special relationship, he would have suspected that Ji Weiwei was the mistress of Suo Heng!
Of course, giving 20,000 yuan a month to the mistress was still a little stingy.
Not long after, the two of them reached the 99th floor. They only heard the elevator ding, and the two of them went out of the elevator together.
This elevator was for private use. They had to pass through an electronic door to get to the office where Suo Heng was.
Ji Weiwei first pressed the doorbell, then used her fingerprint to unlock the door. She pushed the door open and looked inside. The spacious office was right in front of Chen Yi’s eyes.
The decoration was low-key and luxurious. The entire office was surrounded by warm lights. To the naked eyes, it seemed the office supplies were made of mahogany, and there were carvings of dragons and phoenixes on the desk. It was very noble.
At this moment, a man in his forties was sitting behind the desk. He was resting his head on his hands, looking lazy and sharp. This must be Suo Heng, right?
Chen Yi could not see him clearly. His gaze fell on another place. There was another desk, but it was more plain and unadorned. It should be used by Ji Weiwei.
Ji Weiwei bowed slightly to the man in front of her and said respectfully, “Boss, Doctor Chen is here.”
The man heard her, calmly put down the document in his hand, straightened his body, and stood up.
In just a few steps, he had arrived in front of Chen Yi. His speed could be said to be as fast as the wind!
A warm smile appeared on his face, and he reached out and held Chen Yi’s hand. “Doctor Chen, I’ve heard so much about you. I didn’t expect you to be so young. The younger generation of the Yangtze River is really stronger than the previous generation! When Mr Zhang told me about Doctor Chen’s age, I didn’t really believe it. Now that I’ve seen it, I can only sigh.”
In this polite conversation, Chen Yi was a little nervous when he was held by Suo Heng. He quickly relaxed himself. “Speaking of success, who doesn’t know boss Suo Heng’s ability? I’m a little embarrassed to be praised by boss Suo Heng.”
“You’re too modest.” Suo Heng smiled and said, “I’m already half dead. Compared to young people, I’m still far from it. You young people are the ones who are energetic and ambitious. The future of Yu City is still up to you.”
With that, he said, “Doctor Chen, please take a seat.”
Chen Yi did not decline. He sat on the sofa with Suo Heng and they began their conversation.
Ji Weiwei did not say anything. She started to brew two cups of fragrant and rich tea and placed them on the coffee table in front of the two of them. Then, she returned to her small desk.
Suo Heng and Chen Yi sat face to face. From the moment he sat down, his gaze was fixed on Chen Yi. “I saw Mr Zhang’s daughter’s matter on my WeChat moments. A while ago, he always sent messages on his WeChat moments asking for a doctor with a large sum of money. I also know about it. I was also very concerned about his daughter’s matter. It’s just that there weren’t any good doctors around, so… In the end, it was you, Doctor Chen, who helped treat that girl?”
Chen Yi nodded. “Yes, I took over the treatment. If nothing unexpected happens, then she has already recovered. Her body just needs some time to recuperate.”
A glint flashed in Suo Heng’s eyes. In the end, he only praised Chen Yi with one word. “Amazing.”
“Oh right, then what is his daughter’s illness? I heard that almost all the doctors before you could not see it.”
“Is it about the name of this illness? I don’t know. It seems that there is no relevant research on this illness in the country. I just explained this illness according to my knowledge,” Chen Yi replied.
Suo Heng was deep in thought. “Looks like it’s a relatively rare and strange illness?”
“Yes, more or less. It’s rare.”
Suo Heng continued, “Oh right, I heard that Doctor Chen isn’t a proper doctor and doesn’t have any qualifications. I thought about it and still wanted to confirm it.”
Regarding this matter, Chen Yi readily admitted, “Yes, I’m indeed not a medical student. I don’t have a professional certificate. I’m self-taught because I’m more interested.”
“You’re very talented!” There was more praise in Suo Heng’s words. “Doctor Chen is self-taught and proficient. You’re really a genius in the medical world!”
It felt good to be praised. Chen Yi felt refreshed listening to it, but he still became modest. “It’s just so-so. I can’t say that I’m a genius, just a little smart.”
Suo Heng smiled at Chen Yi. Just as he was about to continue speaking, the phone in the office rang. He glanced at the phone.
Ji Weiwei understood and picked it up. “Hello, Chairman’s office. Yes, okay, please wait a moment.”
After saying that, Ji Weiwei covered the phone, she looked at Suo Heng. “Boss, it’s a branch of the group. The manager of the media side said that there’s a project that you need to look over. He’s been waiting for a long time. He wants to ask if boss is free today?”
Suo Heng frowned slightly. “Tell him that I’m not free today. There’s something important.”
“Okay.” Ji Weiwei nodded. Then, she released the microphone and said, “I’m sorry, Manager Qin. Boss has other important things to do. He’s not free today. Come back another day.”
Without waiting for the news, Ji Weiwei hung up the phone.
This could also be considered a small interlude. Chen Yi thought to himself, this project is worth tens of millions of dollars every minute. Are we going to drag it out like this?
As if nothing had happened, Suo Heng smiled and said, “I invited Doctor Chen today because firstly, I saw Master Zhang’s circle of friends and wanted to see it for myself. Secondly, my body is indeed not feeling too well, and I would like to invite Doctor Chen to take a look.”
Hearing this, Chen Yi said, “Hm, Boss Fucha’s complexion is indeed not too good. I can tell.”
“Oh?” Suo Heng raised his eyebrows. “How much can you tell, Doctor Chen?”
“Chinese doctors say that you can tell by looking, hearing, and asking. You’ll probably be able to tell a little bit, but you’ll need to carefully examine the specific situation,” Chen Yi said.
After a while, Suo Heng narrowed his eyes and looked at Ji Weiwei. “I remember that the project funding for Yu City hasn’t been completed in the past two weeks. Go downstairs and ask the manager in charge.”
These words were obvious. Suo Heng was sending Ji Weiwei away. Ji Weiwei understood and immediately stood up. “Okay, boss. I’ll show it to you later.”
After saying that, Ji Weiwei walked out of the office. Now, only Suo Heng and Chen Yi were left in the office.
“How do you need to do your examinations? If you need anything else, just say it!” Suo Heng said anxiously..
