Chapter 716 Beauty Twists Her Ankle (Request Subscription)
At 3 PM, Lin Jie met Li Haoxiang in his hospital office after making an appointment.
"A will? Your will?"
Upon hearing Lin Jie's request, Li Haoxiang was full of surprise, his eyes widened in astonishment.
Lin Jie nodded and said, "Yes, it's my will."
"You know, my situation is somewhat special, so I need to be prepared just in case."
He sighed, "In the past, I was dirt poor, and didn't care if I died. Now that I have some assets, it's best to make things clear in a will."
The reason Lin Jie had this thought was because he was affected by the kidnapping incident in Guangzhou and Shenzhen.
He pondered that even if his heart was fine, life is unpredictable. If fate is unfavorable and he encounters a fatal accident, he might not survive.
Li Haoxiang, considering Lin Jie's health condition, slowly said, "Dr. Lin, surely you will live a long life. However, it's still necessary to be prepared in advance by making a will."
"Dr. Lin, what form of will do you want to make? A document? A letter? A recording, or a video?"
Lin Jie thought for a moment and said, "A formal document will."
"I'll describe the arrangements for my estate, and you note it down, then draft an official will."
"Sure, no problem!"
Responding, Li Haoxiang took a voice recorder out of his briefcase, turned on the switch, and placed it in front of Lin Jie.
Lin Jie pondered and said, "If I'm unfortunate enough to pass away, my real estate, cash, gold, bonds, etc., will all go to my sister, Lin Miao."
"My shares in Anlin Hospital will go to An Kexin."
"My famous paintings and cars will go to Zhang Xiaoxiao."
"My equity in Zhengmao Pharmaceuticals will be split: fifty percent in the name of Lin Miao and me, to be donated to the Anlin Charity Fund; fifty percent in the name of An Kexin and me, to be donated to the Lin Jie Medical Award at Binhai University Medical School."
After saying this, Lin Jie asked, "Lawyer Li, do you need me to provide a list of assets?"
Li Haoxiang softly replied, "A list of assets is not necessary."
"Even if this will takes effect, who knows how many years it will be into the future."
"By then, Dr. Lin, your assets, in terms of quantity and composition, will undoubtedly have changed significantly."
"I will use precise language to make restrictive statements about the distribution of your assets as per your expressed wishes."
"In case of an eventuality that requires the division of assets according to the will, I assure you there will be no disputes."
Lin Jie nodded satisfactorily and said, "Lawyer Li, draft the will based on these points I mentioned."
"Hmm, one more thing…"
He reminded, "Aside from me voluntarily amending the will, you need to remember to remind me to revise the will every five years…"
Not long after sending off Li Haoxiang, Lin Jie received a call from An Kexin.
"Ah Jie, I just came out of Yuerong Plastic Surgery Hospital. As you said, it's quiet and the environment is quite decent."
"Dean Jin is willing to lend us an operating room and also willing to accommodate an international friend."
"However…"
Lin Jie interjected, "I knew it, after good news, bad news is sure to follow."
"Go on, what are Dean Jin's demands?"
Kexin chuckled over the phone, "His demands are simple: regular hospitalization costs and a confidentiality fee for the staff."
"The 'however' I mentioned doesn't refer to that."
"Ah Jie, this is a plastic surgery hospital, without a standard neurosurgery operating room. We need to arrange for the equipment and instruments necessary for brain surgery ourselves."
Lin Jie laughed, "Isn't that a piece of cake for you?"
"I recall you boasting to me once that your one-stop surgical room package sales model had already sold several operating rooms."
An Kexin boasted, "Specifically, three neurosurgery operating rooms, five general surgery rooms, one orthopedic room, one ophthalmology room, and another ear, nose, and throat room."
After detailing her achievements, she continued, "Regarding the operating room, I will handle it. As for the United States, I will urge them to finalize the itinerary as soon as possible."
"Ah Jie, I have more good news for you."
Before Lin Jie could inquire, she exclaimed with excitement, "Binhai University has recently opened a pre-registration test for the 'Medical Direction Program' on its website…"
"Ah Jie, can you guess how many students have logged in to the website to fill out registration information in the past two days?"
"One or two thousand?" Lin Jie casually guessed a number.
An Kexin replied excitedly, "You need to add another zero!"
"Dean Yuan told me that over twelve thousand individuals have filled in detailed information in the past two days."
"He also told me that by the time official registration opens on the 20th, it's expected that more than thirty thousand students will apply."
"That's truly a case of one in a thousand."
This number surprised Lin Jie as well.
"Will there really be so many people? This class only enrolls thirty students."
An Kexin giggled and said, "I guess a lot of students signed up because they don't have to take the college entrance exam and can get directly admitted, hoping to try their luck."
"The truly competitive ones are probably just a few thousand."
Lin Jie sighed, "Even if it's a few thousand, it's not a small number. I hope we can pick some good candidates."
He remembered something and reminded, "Kexin, don't forget to mention General Meng's youngest son and the East Sea Real Estate chairman's son to the school."
An Kexin replied cheerfully, "I've already mentioned it, the school will let those two pass the application screening."
"I've also conveyed your message to the school. They want to pass the key interview assessments, they have to rely on their own abilities, there won't be any special treatment..."
Just as Lin Jie put down the phone, he saw the office door being gently pushed open, and two little heads peeked in.
"Miaomiao, Kemeng, what brings you here?"
Seeing no one else in the office, the two kids came in, each holding onto one of Lin Jie's arms.
"Brother, let's go singing together! We haven't sung together for a long time."
"Yeah, yeah, Brother Jie, I haven't sung in a long time either."
Lin Jie glared at An Kemeng and asked, "I let you off your assessment this week, and now you're taking a holiday for yourself?"
An Kemeng swayed Lin Jie's arm, chuckling, "I study diligently every day, so much that it's making my head spin."
"Dad said I need to learn to balance work and rest, so that my studies will be more efficient."
Lin Jie stared at An Kemeng's smiling face and huffed, "You little rascal, you're pretty crafty, using Uncle An's words against me."
"Brother, Kemeng really does study hard, and this time singing was my invitation to her."
Lin Miao defended An Kemeng and also began to sway Lin Jie's arm, pleading, "Brother, let's go sing together, okay?"
Lin Jie thought for a moment, right now the top priority is refining Andres's surgery plan.
There are still a few uncertain areas that need further consideration.
He estimated that by tomorrow afternoon, everything should be completed.
Perhaps this singing, this relaxation, might make his somewhat tired mind more active.
Thinking of this, Lin Jie stood up and said, "Alright, alright, I agree to go sing together."
"What about Sister Xiaoxiao? Let's call more people, it'll be more lively."
Lin Miao cheered happily, "Sister Xiaoxiao drove us here. She, Mengjiao, and Momo are waiting for us downstairs."
"Brother, let's head out now and have a meal first."
The group first had dinner.
Then, Guan Muhua and Zhang Xiaoxiao drove the group to a famous KTV place in Binhai, the Golden Duke Entertainment Club.
Lin Jie booked a middle-sized room, ordered some drinks, fruit platters, and snacks, and started having fun with Lin Miao, An Kemeng, and others.
Lin Jie's singing skills were quite decent.
He belted out an English song, and although far from professional level, it was full of flair and received unanimous applause.
Among the group, Yu Momo counted as a professional singer, so her singing ability was undisputed.
Below her, it wasn't Lin Miao who studied vocal music for a while, nor was it the melodious and lingering Ling Mengjiao, but the surprisingly impressive Guan Muhua who couldn't refuse everyone's enthusiasm.
That exceedingly loud voice and emotionally rich performance were quite unexpected for Lin Jie, Zhang Xiaoxiao, and the others.
After they sang for over an hour, a mature and alluring woman, showing her deep cleavage, pushed the door open and entered.
She introduced herself as the manager of the place, named Hao Meili, and specifically came to toast Lin Jie.
Lin Jie was quite a notable figure in Binhai.
Being recognized and someone coming over to network wasn't unusual.
He exchanged the toast with Hao Meili using a non-alcoholic drink.
Hao Meili, being quite tactful, toasted with Lin Jie, complimented him a few times, gifted a large fruit platter, and was about to leave.
But as she passed by Guan Muhua, her foot seemed to suddenly twist, and her body tilted towards Guan Muhua's embrace.
Guan Muhua's eyes flickered for a moment.
He had been discreetly watching this unexpected woman, already seeing through her intentional tumble.
However, Guan Muhua didn't dodge, and instead quickly steadied Hao Meili.
Hao Meili clumsily regained her balance with Guan Muhua's support and thanked him, "Thank you, thank you. The shoes I bought today are a bit new and not quite fitting."
Thanking Guan Muhua, Hao Meili also gave an apologetic smile to Lin Jie and the others before hurriedly leaving the room.
At this moment, Guan Muhua lowered his head to look at the palm of his right hand.
Between his middle and index fingers, there was a small paper ball...
