Chapter 39 - 39.... ruthless... (2/2)

If he wanted to, he can one-handedly destroy the lives of some 'old money' in the country, in comparison to them she was just a fly; she was too attracted by his beauty and the demure(?), helpless act he had in front of 'that' woman, that she momentarily forgot all about this, she cursed herself a thousand times in her head.

All she wanted was to keep her head over her shoulder for the time being and this heavily paid job for the future ba!.

No matter how handsome he looked, he was still a Qin and the known Demon of Bussiness world in C-Country.

So many companies, big and small, understimated him and ridiculed him when he took over the empire, saying he was too young and that he was wet behind the ears, but after he took over, his outstanding achievements took the Qin to a whole new level of 'success' and the ones who had ridiculed him were either uprooted from the market, going bankrupt or else, were now slaving there way to keep what little he left them to survive; he was ruthless and cold-blooded when it came to business and people who understimated him.

His action and achievement spoke for his eligibility to take the throne while his ruthlessness spoke for the power he held and controlled; it hasn't been a year since he took over the office but the respect he has earned from the younger and older generation alike, is not something to laugh at, there is no one left in the industry who disrespected him for his young age or so-called 'inexperience'; the rising stocks, the turnover rate of the year, the accomplishments he has gained in just a year only instilled fear in his contemporaries now.

The last thing you want to do, when you get into business in C-country, is to never undermine him or get into his bad books, as that is beyond a horrible mistake, it is a sin... or so, some rumors went, well, it is not entirely false.

Only the other nurse, who had a serious face since the start appeared unfazed by this, well, that is until you see the layer of sweat he had in his forehead and his sweating clenched palms.

Even old foxes in his line of work were suppressed by his momentum, what was he?

Still, it was commendable that he didn't show it in his face and whole-heartedly assisted the old-man.

The old Doc who has been on the edge since he started asking questions to this intimidating prince, almost instantly saw the fluctuation in his eyes and emotions as the temperature in the room dropped by some degrees because of it, he was sweating buckets as he thought of what he did to irk this tycoon, he was almost on the verge of tears, though his face remained calm due to years of experience.

He was a military doctor to begin with and had become the family doctor of the Qin Family after his father who was previously in the position passed it to him due to his deterioting health.

He for a matter has taken care of trained militants and even the legendary Qin Mo, still, the only time he felt like this was when he faced this young man, half-his-age.

He knew for a while now that the man has a weaker constitution compared to men his age and for soem reasons had a deep-rooted hatred for hospitals and doctors alike, and maybe that was the reason for his blank face and cold voice when he spoke with him but he never disrespected him, he may not be polite but his words also never offended anyone and as a doctor, he has seen many peculiar cases so, he too had ignored his attitude and but of course he always stayed on alert when with him.

This young man gave him a different kind of pressure, it was something that he didn't feel even when doing the hardest of the operations or surgeries, it ws like he was always held on the edge of a cliff, one mistake and he would be pushed down.

Still, this was the first time he saw him like this and also the first time he felt so weak and powerless.

Just the aura of the young man was enough for him to cower away, he didn't know what went wrong because just a moment ago he was still getting his usual mechanical answers but then suddenly, he was pushed into a blizzard.

He timidly took a look at the man, only to see him glaring at his apprentice, he didn't know what went wrong for him to act like this.

Before the world turned white due to the icy cold air, a smooth voice broke the ice,

”XuanXuan?”
