Down-and-out CEO × genius village doctor | 1v1 | HE | Both pure
Gu Xingzhou, the youngest head of the Gu empire, was betrayed and ousted by his own uncle. In a single night, he went bankrupt and became a laughingstock across the internet.
Dragging a battered suitcase back to Xitou Village, his mother’s hometown, he was met by the entire village gathered at the entrance to watch the show:
They tore up his property deed and threw mud at him. Even the village dogs chased him, and everyone was waiting to see him beg for food.
Only Xie Qingwu, the quiet barefoot village doctor, crouched by the field ridge and wiped the mud from his face, speaking in a calm, gentle voice:
“Can you get up?”
Gu Xingzhou gave a bitter smile. “No.”
Xie Qingwu tossed him a bottle of disinfectant. “It’s free. Come with me. Two hundred a month, with meals and lodging included.”
Later, the Gu family’s executives gathered at the village entrance and begged him to return and take charge.
The people who had once trampled him into the mud now didn’t dare lift their heads.
Gu Xingzhou didn’t even look at them. He turned toward the person carrying a medicine chest, his expression gentle.
“Qingwu, do you need an assistant at your herbal medicine shop?”
Xie Qingwu smiled and took his hand.
“I do. Meals and lodging included, for life.”
