Chapter 804: Chapter 801: In the Midst of Destiny

Zi Yan shook her head amusingly and said, "Junior Brother Lin, do you really not know, or are you just pretending? Last time at Xinghai Hospital, you showcased your amazing acupuncture skills. Dean Miao, along with the entire hospital, was astonished by you."

"I remember Dean Miao even said he wanted to invite you to give a seminar. Unfortunately, after that, you never showed up. He often asks me about you, but I know you don’t like doing seminars, and with your college entrance exams coming up, I didn’t tell him your whereabouts. Otherwise, he’d have come looking for you long ago," Zi Yan said helplessly, feeling that her junior brother was too low-key.

With her reminder, Lin Tian recalled that because of Zuo Xing’er’s plea, he had treated Zuo Hongyi at Xinghai Hospital, received a Taekwondo club as a gift, taken down Cui Haolong, and unexpectedly obtained Sun Hai’s USB drive, which led to a series of events. Everything seemed coincidental but was intricately linked.

Thinking about it now, Lin Tian found it somewhat incredible. Coincidence and inevitability—was there an invisible hand in the sky pushing the fates of everyone, including him?

"I have to thank Senior Sister’s generosity for allowing me to learn the Nine Needle Technique. Otherwise, I would never have had the chance to encounter such profound acupuncture skills. And this golden thread is simply the perfect match for the Nine Needle Technique," Lin Tian said seriously.

Sometimes he was curious about why Zi Yan would give him the Nine Needle Technique and the golden thread after only meeting him once.

"No need to be modest, Junior Brother. The massage technique you know is a precursor to the Nine Needle Technique. Some things seem like they are fated to be; in some way, they already belong to you. I was merely finding a master for the Nine Needle Technique and the golden thread," Zi Yan said mysteriously.

"Senior Sister’s words are too mystical. Whether it has a master or not, no matter how magical its origin, it’s just a tool for saving lives. Without this function, they have no value," Lin Tian said, not having the notion of fate. Tools are meant to serve people; whoever uses them makes no difference.

A cloud seemed to pass through Zi Yan’s eyes as she slightly shook her head and said, "Perhaps. Let’s talk about your matter. When do you need doctors to be stationed at the school? How many doctors do you need?"

"As soon as possible, of course. As for the number of doctors, one is enough. Our school isn’t a hospital. It’s just to take care of headaches, colds, and fevers," Lin Tian said.

"That works out well. Dean Miao also hopes the project starts as soon as possible. Tomorrow’s the weekend, so how about tomorrow? I’ll inform Dean Miao later; they’re pretty much ready," Zi Yan nodded and said.

"Then tomorrow it is. It’s resolved. I just love to meddle, always finding trouble for myself," Lin Tian reflected on himself.

Zi Yan chuckled and said, "Junior Brother may seem carefree, but you actually care a lot about people around you. Why haven’t you ever shown concern for your Senior Sister?"

"Okay, to show my concern for Senior Sister, I agree to your earlier request to buy a set of lingerie for you. Does Senior Sister like it?" Lin Tian chuckled.

"Hehehe..." Zi Yan giggled again, and as Lin Tian glanced at her ample bosom, Zi Yan laughed as if she didn’t notice Lin Tian’s gaze. "Junior Brother, your intentions aren’t pure. Gifting lingerie to measure Senior Sister’s size, hmm?"

"If Senior Sister doesn’t mind, I could consider measuring," Lin Tian responded shamelessly.

"Lin Tian, measure what?" A voice came from afar. It was Xiao Manxuan, who had walked in and overheard the latter part of Lin Tian’s sentence.

The little girl sat by the tea table, sweetly greeted Zi Yan, and then looked at Lin Tian curiously.

"Oh, nothing. Senior Sister said not to wear uniforms next time to Victoria Beauty Workshop, and said she wanted to gift me a set of clothes, so she needs to measure my height and sizes," Lin Tian said nonchalantly. He couldn’t let the little girl know about measuring Senior Sister’s bust size, or he’d be labeled a pervert again.

Zi Yan rolled her eyes at him privately, thinking that her junior brother was indeed quick-witted. Who knows how many girls he had charmed?

"Xuanxuan, have you found any styles you like?" She ignored Lin Tian’s fibs and turned to ask Xiao Manxuan.

Now it was Xiao Manxuan’s turn to feel embarrassed. With Lin Tian still here, discussing such private matters in front of him was awkward. The little girl subtly nodded.

"On my tab today. The styles you choose, I’ll gift them to Xuanxuan," Zi Yan said generously with a smile.

Lin Tian knew that lingerie prices at Victoria Beauty Workshop weren’t cheap. Last time, buying two sets for Zhang Lingyu cost him over ten thousand yuan. Zi Yan didn’t even check how many sets Xiao Manxuan picked and offered generously.

However, Xiao Manxuan sneaked a glance at Lin Tian and softly said, "Sister Zi Yan already gifted me once last time. I can’t let Sister be so generous every time; I’ll pay this time."

Knowing Xiao Manxuan’s expression, Zi Yan immediately understood. She smiled gently, "I see. Then I won’t insist this time."

Xiao Manxuan, being a smart girl, realized from Zi Yan’s tone that her subtle thoughts had been seen through. She explained with a touch of embarrassment, "Sister Zi Yan, don’t misunderstand. This time, I wanted to buy it."

"Uh, ladies, I need to use the restroom. You chat first," Lin Tian gestured outside. Without waiting for a reply, he sensibly left.

Xiao Manxuan was visibly so embarrassed that her face turned red. Lin Tian thought if he stayed any longer, the little girl would wish she could dig a hole and hide.

After he left the lounge, he didn’t actually head to the restroom but went straight to the cashier where the staff was packing a few sets of lingerie.

"Sir, is there anything you need help with?" the female shop assistant asked politely. Knowing that this handsome man shared a close relationship with their boss, she was more courteous.

"I wanted to ask which lingerie the girl named Xiao Manxuan just selected," Lin Tian inquired.

"These three sets here; they’re almost packed," the shop assistant pointed to the boxes on the counter.

Lin Tian nodded, pulled out a bank card from his pocket, handed it to the shop assistant, and said, "Then please pay with this card."

The shop assistant was momentarily surprised, but her eyes showed envy. Clearly, having such a considerate and handsome boyfriend was something any girl would be happy about.

"Wait..." Lin Tian suddenly stopped the shop assistant just as she was about to charge the card. He had her wait and then turned towards the merchandise area, full of dazzling lingerie that could make any man blush.

Amidst the shop assistants’ curious gazes, Lin Tian made a round in the merchandise area and returned with two more sets of lingerie in his hands.
