I just got divorced, and the female CEO is already clinging to me.

Chapter 70 How about we become sworn brothers?

Du Miaowei glanced at the rearview mirror and said, "What do you want to eat? I'll go buy it for you."

Ye Cheng said considerately, "I don't mind, it's mainly you. You've been busy all day, you should eat something good tonight."

Du Miaowei replied, "No need. The company's lunch is quite plentiful and enough to replenish the nutrients needed for the day."

In the evenings, I usually just have a vegetable salad. Sometimes I'm too busy, so I skip dinner.

Ye Cheng smiled and said, "That's good..."

He recalled the questioning look in Du Miaowei's eyes and the condescending tone in her voice when they first met.

And now she's actually speaking to me so gently.

It wasn't just that she was afraid of offending Shen Qingrou; it also seemed to have a hint of trying to please herself.

Shen Qingrou said that Du Miaowei was a spy planted by Ling Suqiu next to her.

The two were clearly close friends, so why would Du Miaowei agree to Ling Suqiu's request, willing to abandon their youthful friendship and betray Shen Qingrou? Ye Cheng wanted to find out what had happened.

"Do you have trouble sleeping?" Ye Cheng suddenly asked.

Du Miaowei was slightly taken aback: "You're not actually worried about me, are you?"

Ye Cheng did not answer directly, but said, "I minored in traditional Chinese medicine when I was in college. I noticed that your complexion is not very good, and your sub-health condition is quite serious, so I couldn't help but remind you."

Du Miaowei smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to be such a treasure."

When I first met you, I was truly blind to your greatness, not knowing that you had once been the top scorer in the college entrance examination.

One has to admire Mr. Shen's sharp eye.

"You flatter me, it was just bad luck." Ye Cheng's expression suddenly turned serious: "There's something I'm not sure if I should say, but it concerns your health?"

Du Miaowei glanced at Ye Cheng in the rearview mirror again: "Go on, I'm all ears."

Ye Cheng said, "Then I'll be frank with what I have to say."

Do you often have cold hands and feet, and experience abdominal pain during your period?

Sometimes it ends in three days, sometimes it takes half a month?

Du Miaowei's face turned pale instantly, and her Adam's apple bobbed: "How did you figure that out?"

She had a nervous feeling that she was being seen through.

Ye Chengdao said, "I don't know if you've ever heard the saying, 'There are no secrets in traditional Chinese medicine.'"

If I were to take your pulse again, I could find all the hidden ailments lurking in your body.

Du Miaowei was caught in a dilemma; she wanted to test whether Ye Cheng was really that capable, but she didn't dare let him try.

She felt guilty and worried that Ye Cheng would discover her spy identity.

Are you trying to take advantage of me?

If President Shen finds out you touched my hand, she'll skin me alive.

You just said my relative is not normal. Is there any way to treat it?

"If you can cure me, I will trust you."

Ye Cheng said, "Add me on WeChat, and I'll send you the prescription."

Du Miaowei was wondering how to get Ye Cheng's contact information, and this was exactly what she wanted.

She gave him her phone number: "My phone number is also my WeChat ID."

"Um... don't contact me casually, or President Shen will kill me!"

Ye Cheng smiled, and while writing down Du Miaowei's phone number, he said, "She might not only kill you, but she might also kill me."

She is too possessive.

I've submitted a request to add you on WeChat; please approve it.

Du Miaowei took her phone out of her bag, unlocked it, and accepted Ye Cheng's friend request.

Ye Cheng edited the prescription and sent it to Du Miaowei: "Go to Guan's Pharmacy to get the medicine. If you don't trust me, you can also ask Doctor Guan Li to take a look at you."

"Dr. Guan Li is very skilled; he even treated me."

Du Miaowei exclaimed in surprise, "Please, Dr. Guan is the most famous traditional Chinese medicine doctor in Hedong City, and a guest of honor for high-ranking officials and nobles."

You're only able to get him to treat you because of the chairman's good fortune.

I don't have that kind of luck.

Since you've given me a prescription, I'll try it out.

Ye Cheng said, "Traditional Chinese medicine is actually quite bitter. If you don't like it, I have other options."

Du Miaowei said speechlessly, "Are you trying to trick me?"

Knowing that traditional Chinese medicine is bitter, why make me drink it? Wouldn't it be better to use another method directly?

Ye Cheng said meaningfully, "I'm afraid you won't be able to accept it."

Du Miaowei was puzzled: "You're treating my illness, what's there to be upset about?"

Are you going to examine me...?

She paused here, her face turning from white to red.

Ye Cheng understood what she hadn't finished saying: "What are you thinking? How could I let you examine me so casually?"

However, you'll need to expose your lower abdomen so I can give you acupuncture.

It's just that the exposed parts are closer to privacy.

After thinking it over, I think it's more appropriate to prescribe medicine for you, so you won't accuse me of taking advantage of you.

After all, we're not that familiar with each other.

Du Miaowei seemed to be having an internal struggle, not even noticing that the red light was on. It was only after Ye Cheng reminded her that she slammed on the brakes.

"I don't want to drink Chinese medicine, I'll have acupuncture instead."

Du Miaowei mustered her courage and spoke.

Ye Cheng's lips curled up slightly, and he thought to himself, "There was definitely something wrong."

"I'm not very confident in acupuncture, so let's just drink Chinese medicine instead," Ye Cheng said, changing his mind again.

Du Miaowei raised an eyebrow: "Are you making fun of me?"

Ye Cheng vehemently denied it, saying, "No, no, you're younger than me, how could I possibly make fun of you?"

I grew up in an orphanage and had no brothers or sisters.

I feel very close to you; I treat you like a younger sister.

I couldn't help but say a few more words because I noticed you had a hidden health condition.

Du Miaowei seemed intrigued: "How about we become sworn brothers?"

Ye Cheng agreed, "Great! We'll share the good times and the bad."

From now on, you will be my half-sister, sharing the same father and mother.

Du Miaowei said speechlessly, "Isn't this too hasty? Shouldn't we have set up an incense burner and made him kneel down and kowtow a few times?"

Or perhaps we could drink a cup of blood wine?

Ye Cheng said, "If you want to just go through the motions, that's fine too. How about having President Shen be a witness?"

Du Miaowei suddenly had a change of heart: "Let's not. You and she haven't kowtowed yet. If I rush ahead, I'm afraid I won't see the sun rise the next day."

Ye Cheng teased, "Call me 'brother,' and you'll be my sister from now on."

I don't have any other skills, but I'm smart. If anyone encounters a problem they can't solve, I can help.

Du Miaowei turned her head and smiled sweetly: "Brother."

Ye Cheng laughed happily.

After driving for half an hour, we arrived at the Hedongcheng Hotel.

Those who can afford to dine here are either extremely wealthy or very powerful; it is also the only five-star hotel in Hedong City.

Du Miaowei parked the car in the parking lot, and Ye Cheng asked, "Want to go in and have a meal?"

Du Miaowei shook her head: "I'm not going. It wouldn't be good if Director Ling found out."

If you're hungry, I'll go buy you something to eat.

I know there's a famous food street around here; the food is pretty good and it'll fill you up.

Seeing that Du Miaowei was strongly recommending it, Ye Cheng didn't want to spoil her mood, so he said, "Alright then, let's use public funds and have President Shen reimburse you."

Du Miaowei chuckled and said, "I still have this money. Consider it my sister's way of repaying you for the medical expenses."

She got out of the car, and her figure disappeared into the night in no time.

Just then, Ye Cheng's phone suddenly rang. He took it out and saw that it was an unfamiliar number from Beijing, which made him frown.
