Urban Genius Divine Doctor

After leaving the tea house on foot, Wang Chenning led the three women to the shore of West Lake, walking along the lakeside toward their hotel.

Li Yanxian curiously asked Wang Chenning why a big shot like Wang Jiangxing had contacted him so soon after they arrived in Qiantang. She wondered if they had met before, or if Zhao Xiao'an had arranged it.

"No contact, no arrangement. He probably found out where we were from your Weibo and contacted me on his own initiative," Wang Chenning said with a smile. "This alone shows you the efficiency of the common prosperity demonstration zone. When the leaders are so down-to-earth, who would dare to slack off? With an atmosphere like this, economic development and the improvement of people's livelihoods are bound to be done well. In this regard, the Guanzhong region can't compare to Jiangnan. Even with the same people in charge, it would be different!"

Zhao Xiao'an keenly sensed the hidden meaning in Wang Chenning's words and couldn't help but ask, "Are you thinking about setting up a home in Jiangnan?"

"That's right," Wang Chenning didn't deny it. "I am indeed considering it. After all, at least half the blood flowing in my veins is from Jiangnan, and it truly is a very livable place. But let's put that aside for now. We'll stroll around for a couple of days and see if this feeling gets stronger."

"How about buying an old house by West Lake?" Zhao Xiao'an suggested with a smile, looking at Wang Chenning. It was a proposal that both Li Fuzhen and Li Yanxian found very appealing. "That way, whenever we're in Qiantang, we can fall asleep to the sound of West Lake's waves every night. When we wake up, the first thing we'll see is the beautiful scenery of the lake."

"That's a great idea!" Wang Chenning was immediately tempted. "I happen to have some spare cash in my private account, enough for a few 'small goals.' Why don't you ask Wang Jiangxing to help look into it? See if there are any nice private residences for sale by West Lake."

After hearing Wang Chenning, Li Fuzhen grew interested as well. "Ask for us too while you're at it!"

"Okay!" Zhao Xiao'an immediately pulled out her phone and called Wang Jiangxing.

Zhao Xiao'an's call was a pleasant surprise for Wang Jiangxing.

The fact that Wang Chenning or Zhao Xiao'an wanted to buy a house by West Lake indicated they liked the lake and Qiantang, and would likely visit often in the future.

If Wang Chenning, Li Fuzhen, and the others really invested ten billion US dollars in Qiantang, and also made one of their homes by West Lake, then there would surely be more investments to follow.

He immediately instructed his secretary to look into the situation and get back to Wang Chenning and Li Fuzhen as soon as possible.

The poor secretary had thought he could go home and sleep early, but now he had more work to do.

However, he didn't dare refuse and immediately started making calls to inquire.

Half an hour later, he reported his findings back to Zhao Xiao'an. He said that in the lakeside area of South Mountain Road, near the former Willows and Songbirds park, there were several private residences for sale, each priced at around two to three hundred million yuan. Among them was one property with two villas, priced at about five hundred million yuan.

On this large property, one villa had a floor area of about three hundred square meters, while the other was around five hundred. There was also a basement of roughly three hundred square meters and a garden of nearly three hundred square meters.

After hearing the secretary's description over the phone, Wang Chenning and Li Fuzhen, who were already back at the hotel, were instantly tempted.

"How about we buy this residence together?" Li Fuzhen said to Wang Chenning with a half-smile. "We could be neighbors in the future!"

"Sure!" Wang Chenning readily agreed, then turned to Zhao Xiao'an beside him and said, "I'll give you a part of this residence as a birthday gift. Would you accept it?"

Zhao Xiao'an was taken aback. "Are you crazy? How could I possibly accept such an expensive gift!"

As she spoke, she rolled her eyes.

Although Zhao Xiao'an grew up in a wealthy family, she couldn't just dismiss an asset worth several hundred million.

Hearing Wang Chenning say it so casually made her heart beat much faster.

"A gift isn't about its price, but the thought behind it," Wang Chenning said, smiling at Zhao Xiao'an, but he directed his question to Li Fuzhen. "Wouldn't you agree, Sister Li?"

"That's true," Li Fuzhen nodded. "Actually, what I admire most about you is how you treat money like dirt. You have such a nonchalant attitude toward money and wealth. As long as you value a friendship or a relationship, nothing else matters to you. There are probably very few people in the world who've reached your level of thinking."

Wang Chenning chuckled. "Actually, someone who researches traditional medicine and has achieved some results will never be short on cash. Someone like me, who's almost at the top of the food chain, will have wealth rolling in. If I develop a drug that can cure a complex disease—be it cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure, or a respiratory infection—as long as it's effective, it will bring me a massive fortune. I can say without any exaggeration that I'm a human money tree!"

Seeing the varied expressions on the women's faces, Wang Chenning waved his hand to stop them from getting emotional and continued, "I'll buy this residence myself. The bigger building goes to Xiao'an, and the smaller one goes to Sister Li. As for the villa you arranged for me by the Han River, Sister Li, I won't pay you for it. Let's just call it an exchange."

"No problem!" Li Fuzhen agreed readily.

Huaxia's real estate market was far more developed than South Korea's. The villa she had arranged for Wang Chenning, after everything was said and done, had cost less than one hundred million yuan in total.

The house Wang Chenning was giving her was worth at least one hundred and fifty million yuan, almost twice the price.

Moreover, Wang Chenning spoke as if it were a trivial matter, without even furrowing his brow, his tone as easygoing as ever.

Suddenly, Li Fuzhen felt that this was what a real man was like. All the other men she had known before were on a completely different level from Wang Chenning in every respect.

As for Zhao Xiao'an, she was deeply moved.

She wasn't a materialistic person, and having always lived a privileged life, she lacked for nothing.

But Wang Chenning's insistence on giving her the house by West Lake still left her feeling overwhelmed with pleasant surprise.

What woman doesn't long for the man she loves to give her a precious gift?

She was no different.

There were quite a few women around Wang Chenning now. No matter how outstanding she was, she still hoped he would see her as special.

Today, Wang Chenning had accompanied her to Qiantang and even given her such an expensive gift. Her heart was about to melt.

She was sure that no one else could possibly receive such a gift. In Wang Chenning's heart, she was one of a kind.

"Well, it would be rude to refuse!" Zhao Xiao'an was also a straightforward person and didn't act coy any longer. "In that case, I'll accept this grand gift from you. Wait, the house isn't mine yet, so my gift isn't either."

Then she giggled and asked, "What do you want in return?"

"To warm your bed, of course!" Li Fuzhen chimed in from the side, teasing them. "A gift like this demands you offer yourself in thanks. It's a shame I'm too old, otherwise I'd gladly be little brother Chenning's pillow partner tonight!"

"Fine, warm your bed it is!" Zhao Xiao'an declared, grabbing Wang Chenning's hand and starting to pull him away. "We can't let such a beautiful night go to waste. Come with me!"

Then she called back to Li Fuzhen and Li Yanxian, "You two, don't interrupt our romantic evening!"

Watching Zhao Xiao'an pull Wang Chenning quickly away, Li Fuzhen and Li Yanxian could only look at each other in bewilderment.

The mood of the two women soured in an instant.

'Are those two crazies really going to go sleep together?'
