Hongye Temple.

There is an old pavilion behind the temple that has existed for many years. Master Jingfei set up a tea banquet here. Apart from the occasional bird singing, it looks extremely quiet. Several white orchids growing outside the old pavilion exuded a faint fragrance.

There was a futon on the stone bench. Su Tao and Liu Ruochen walked slowly into the pavilion and sat down. Liu Ruochen exclaimed: "It is not an exaggeration to describe this place as a paradise."

Jingfei poured two cups of tea, put it at Su Tao and Liu Ruochen's hands, and introduced: "This pavilion is called Leting, which is the most important building of Hongye Temple. From here you can see the panoramic view of Hongye Temple."

Su Tao said curiously: "Why is it called Leting?"

Logically speaking, monks should isolate the seven emotions and six desires, abandon joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, and be neither sad nor happy.

"There is a story for the name of Leting. I don't know whether it is true or false. There were many rare birds and beasts on this mountain back then. Someone once saw a colorful bird standing on the pavilion and singing softly. Because the birds' singing sounds are crisp and moving, some people call this pavilion Leting." Master Jingfei smiled and explained slowly.

Su Tao nodded and smiled, "So that's it! This is the world. Wherever there are people, stories will happen. Over time, after generations of people, it becomes a legend."

Master Jingfei finished making tea, put his hands together and said, "I will say goodbye first. If you have any needs, please notify us."

Master Jingfei left casually. Su Tao looked at Qi Jiahao, who was always smiling at the corner of his mouth and said, "Dr. Qi, I am very surprised by the attitude you show now."

Qi Jiahao nodded and said, "That's right, the bet failed. According to the principle, I should feel lost, and should not be so calm."

Su Tao frowned, then suddenly realized, shook his head lightly, and asked, "Does Mr. Qi hope I can complete the bet?"

He carefully recalled that Qi Jiahao's performance was a bit strange when he acquired three state-owned hospitals.

Because he was observing the wall and was always observing his performance. Logically speaking, if he was hostile to himself, he should use the resources in his hands to frequently interfere with his acquisition actions. What Qi Jiahao did was just to release the news that Su Tao wanted to acquire three state-owned hospitals, which was not a big deal.

Qi Jiahao reacted quickly to Su Tao, not surprised. He sighed and said, "You took the instructions of Vice Premier Xiao to take over the reform and promotion of the state-owned enterprise hospital. But I am not at ease with you, so I set up some obstacles. If you complete the bet, it proves that you have enough strength. If someone helps me share the pressure, why would I be lost?"

Su Tao sighed inwardly, it turns out that this is the case, everything is just a test for Qi Jiahao.

At the same time, it was also the test of Vice Premier Xiao on Su Tao.

Whether Qi Jiahao or Vice Premier Xiao, they all want to know whether Su Tao has the strength to shoulder the important task of promoting the reform of state-owned enterprise hospitals.

Su Tao shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Dr. Qi, you are hiding too deeply."

Qi Jiahao smiled slightly and said, "The restructuring of state-owned enterprise hospitals is an important step in medical reform. It affects the foundation of the country. When you engage in this industry, you are extremely cautious in every step, as if you are in the abyss. When you acquire three state-owned enterprise hospitals, you should already know the difficulty. You are not fighting with one person, but fighting with a group of people. Most of them have formed a collective of interests. When you touch their cake, they will unite to attack you. So first of all, you must be mentally prepared, and secondly, you also need to adapt flexibly and find the right response strategy."

Su Tao was also mixed with feelings and sighed: "It took so much effort to acquire three state-owned hospitals, not to mention that there are so many state-owned hospitals in the country that need to be reorganized."

Qi Jiahao waved his hand and said inspiration: "These three are more typical state-owned enterprise hospitals, and the problems are quite serious. You can solve these three hospitals in less than a month, which is enough to show that you are able to shoulder more important responsibilities. In fact, the restructuring of state-owned enterprise hospitals is just a part of medical reform. There are still many problems you will face in the future."

When Su Tao heard this, he felt that Qi Jiahao's words could extend many things. He shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I always feel like I was being led by my nose. Can you tell me what Vice Premier Xiao wants me to do?"

Qi Jiahao laughed and took out a document from the bag he carried with him: "You can see what Vice Premier Xiao is thinking by looking at this document."

Su Tao took it and browsed it quickly. He looked at Qi Jiahao in surprise and said, "Do you want to resell the entire Ruixing Group to me?"

Qi Jiahao nodded and said, "I have known you. You have always wanted to build an empire of traditional Chinese medicine. If Ruixing Group handed it over to you, then you have enough foundation. I don't think you will refuse this."

This is a priceless gift!

Before he expected, Su Tao shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I just think this matter is too sudden."

Su Tao originally thought that after completing the bet with Qi Jiahao, he could only obtain the part of the assets under Ruixing Group involved in the restructuring of state-owned enterprise hospitals. Who would have thought that Qi Jiahao would hand over the entire Ruixing Group to Su Tao?

Liu Ruochen, who was sitting next to Su Tao, was also shocked.

Ruixing Group is one of the largest medical investment groups in China. The industry involves all aspects. If Su Tao really owns this part of the assets, it means that he can work hard for 20 or 30 years less, and with a leap, he will become the top figure in China's medical industry.

Su Tao smiled bitterly and said, "If I don't know the reason, it will be difficult to accept this gift."

Qi Jiahao smiled slightly at Su Tao and began to tell the legend of his life when he was ordered to be in danger. Under the instructions of several core leaders of the government, he quit his job in the Ministry of Health and resolutely went into the sea to do business.

Qi Jiahao's success, although with historical opportunities and government support, is also closely related to his business talent and broad vision.

"Looking back on the ups and downs of the business world over the years, I have gained a lot, but I have lost more." Qi Jiahao smiled faintly, "I might as well tell you the relationship between Master Jingfei and Master Jingfei. I am actually Master Jingfei's enemy who killed his father."

Su Tao and Liu Ruochen both looked at each other, and a look of surprise appeared in their eyes.

Qi Jiahao smiled bitterly and said with a bitter smile: "At that time, Jingfei was still a young girl of eighteen or nineteen years old. I was already a successful entrepreneur in Shanzhou Province. When acquiring a company, I used a relatively strong method to use relationships to make the bank shrink the loan. In the end, the company was successfully acquired by me because it could not continue to operate. But even after I acquired it, the person in charge of the company faced the bank's ending of bankruptcy. He could not accept this result and committed suicide by jumping off the building, and Jingfei was the person's daughter."

Su Tao sighed and said, "Master Jingfei does not hate you."

"I feel guilty in my heart. I silently supported Jingfei after going to college, but I didn't expect Jingfei to come to Hongye Temple to become a monk. In a flash, it took more than ten years, and a woman's best years disappeared quietly." Qi Jiahao shook his head and smiled bitterly, and continued.

Liu Ruochen asked softly: "Mr. Jingfei is also the reason why you have never gotten married, right?"

Qi Jiahao was slightly stunned and smiled bitterly: "Maybe."

No wonder Qi Jiahao has such a charming and graceful assistant Yuan Xiuzhen, but Qi Jiahao has never paid attention to her because there is someone living deep in his heart.

"Dr. Qi, have you told her about your affection for Master Jingfei?" Liu Ruochen continued to ask.

"No. Because I know it is impossible. First of all, I am so much older than her. Secondly, I am her father's enemy to kill his father." Qi Jiahao smiled mockingly, "I plan to build a small wooden house at the foot of the mountain after the Ruixing Group's affairs, and be her neighbors in the future. In this life, I will have no regrets in this life."

Su Tao sighed in his heart. Who said that there is no romance that contains true feelings in today's era of material desires?

The King of Guanzhong, Qi Jiahao, had social status and economic strength, decided to retire to a paradise for a monk.

Liu Ruochen shook his head and said, "You have never asked Master Jingfei what he really thought, so how can you know if she will agree to you?"

Su Tao smiled softly and analyzed: "Dr. Qi, have you ever thought about why Master Jingfei chose to become a monk? What is she hiding from?"

Qi Jiahao fell into silence and sighed helplessly: "Maybe it's to avoid me!"

"If I were hiding you, why did I keep in touch with you for so many years?" Su Tao analyzed patiently, "I think she is hiding her inner guilt. If nothing unexpected happens, she has long been deeply in love with you. It is just because she knows that you have forced her father to death, so she escapes the true feelings in her heart. She converted to the Buddha just to avoid inner anxiety and hesitation. Like you, she has not let go of her entanglement yet."

Qi Jiahao didn't know why it was related to Liu Ruochen and Su Tao so easily, but it was actually related to the temperament of the two.

Su Tao and Liu Ruochen are both doctors. They can easily make people trust themselves, and they can easily open their hearts in their tone and skills.

Qi Jiahao smiled slightly and said suddenly: "Then should I ask her?"

"That's of course! You are a man and she is a woman. Of course, men have to speak up first in this kind of thing." Su Tao smiled, "Even if you are rejected, so what? If she is really a monk, her heart is free of dust, she will not care about your thoughts. But if she accepts you, you can both open the knot of your heart that has been for many years."

When Qi Jiahao heard Su Tao say this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he stood up and said, "I'll go find her now!"

Seeing the Qi family leaving in a blatant manner, Liu Ruochen smiled bitterly and said, "How likely do you think the Master Jingfei promised Qi family?"

"Not 10%!" Su Tao shrugged.

"Then why did you encourage him?" Liu Ruochen gave Su Tao a angrily glance.

Su Tao blinked at Liu Ruochen and smiled: "Pretending was like taking millet from fire. Although it is only 10% possible, it is worth flying into the fire."
