Chapter 56 – Little doctor? I’m not little

As Lin Jichen continued to scroll down, he reached the game market section.

In just a few days since its public beta, "Tale of Immortal" had captured 90% of the global gaming market.

Its unprecedented popularity and wide audience were unparalleled.

It was even more popular than the first holographic game, "Battlefield," back in the day.

Many players from other games had flocked to it, causing some games to lose players and even go bankrupt.

This phenomenon had caught the attention of numerous investors and companies, prompting them to form guilds and invest in the game.

In "Tale of Immortal," the prices of game equipment and currency fluctuated daily in the market.

As of now, any piece of Spirit Grade equipment or skill in "Tale of Immortal" could fetch hundreds of thousands or even millions.

A low-grade Spirit Stone was currently valued at a 1:125 ratio against the Chinese Yuan, and this ratio was still rising.

The forum was filled with discussions about the strengths and weaknesses of various professions and comparisons of players' talents.

Many self-proclaimed experts were boasting and offering their opinions.

Lin Jichen had no interest in their bragging. He exited the forum and put away his phone.

There was still some time before Gu Qiuxue finished work, so Lin Jichen decided to take a stroll around the hospital while waiting for his sister.

"Little Miracle Doctor!"

As Lin Jichen wandered around, a soft, mature female voice suddenly called out from behind him.

He turned around to see a beautiful, elegant woman from the emergency department.

She looked about twenty-five or twenty-six, exuding a mature and intellectual charm with a touch of the gentle elegance typical of women from Suzhou and Hangzhou.

Her golden curly hair cascaded over her shoulders like silk, making her look both hot and alluring, full of feminine charm.

Her delicate features were accentuated by exquisite makeup, and she had a petite, refined beauty that was captivating.

Her figure was even more striking, with an S-curve and a slender waist, revealing smooth, snow-white legs and delicate, exposed arms.

Dressed in designer brands, she carried a limited-edition handbag in her slender hand.

Seeing Lin Jichen, the woman smiled seductively and quickly walked over.

"Little Miracle Doctor, I finally found you!"

"Is there something you need?" Lin Jichen asked distantly.

He was a bit annoyed. The woman kept calling him "Little Miracle Doctor," which he found quite irritating.

She just wanted a place to vent her long-suppressed emotions.

Seeing her heartbroken state, Lin Jichen couldn't refuse.

"Go ahead, cry it out," he said.

The woman leaned gently into Lin Jichen's embrace, burying her head in his shoulder and sobbing uncontrollably.

After a long while, her crying subsided, and she pulled away from Lin Jichen.

She took out a tissue to wipe her tears and then helped Lin Jichen clean the marks on his shoulder.

"Sorry for dirtying your clothes," she apologized.

"It's nothing, just a cheap piece of clothing. If you're done, I'll be leaving now," Lin Jichen said, feeling he had done enough.

"Wait, Little Miracle Doctor. Even though you can't save my father, you helped extend his life by a few days, and that's a great kindness to me," she said, handing Lin Jichen a card and a business card.

"This card contains a small token of appreciation from me and the Yang family. There's no password. The business card is mine. If you ever need help, feel free to call. I'll do my best to assist you."

Lin Jichen looked at the card and business card in his hand and didn't bother refusing. Only an idiot would turn down money.

He accepted the card and glanced at the business card: "Yang Yirou, Chairman of Yangfan Shipping Group."

As expected, she was a wealthy woman.

"Then I won't be polite. I'll contact you if I need anything."

"Agreed. Goodbye, Little Miracle Doctor."

With that, the woman turned and left.

Lin Jichen sighed. In the end, he couldn't get her to change her way of addressing him. He really wasn't little!

Not long after, Gu Qiuxue finished work, and the two of them left the hospital together.

Lin Jichen wanted to choose a high-end restaurant, but Gu Qiuxue was reluctant to let him spend money, so they settled on a barbecue place after much persuasion.

They had a delightful dinner and then went to see a movie.

Afterward, Lin Jichen took Gu Qiuxue shopping and insisted on buying her a lot of clothes.

"Little Chen, really, stop buying. I have enough clothes," Gu Qiuxue pleaded as she saw Lin Jichen carrying numerous shopping bags.

"I just enjoy buying things for my sister. You can't stop me. Hello, please wrap up these two as well," Lin Jichen said, not giving her a chance to refuse and swiping his card.

Gu Qiuxue felt both happy and troubled.

Finally, after her repeated pleas, Lin Jichen announced the end of their shopping spree and carried the bags to Gu Qiuxue's place.
