Chapter 033: Mixed-Race Beauty Director Marry Yang Comes Online
Zhuang Jingxue said with great relief, "Husband, luckily you took on a good disciple. A Lang, we're counting on you!"
"Please rest assured, Master's wife, this junior never drops the ball."
"Good! Then I, your Master, will now arrange for hospitalization and undergo the minimally invasive cardiac stent surgery." Zhou Zhongdang nodded contentedly.
Zhou Mengyao tentatively asked, "Mom, you're a leading expert in cardiac surgery. Will you be performing the minimally invasive stent surgery on my dad yourself?"
"This..." Zhuang Jingxue hesitated, feeling a bit awkward.
Lin Lang saw his Master's wife's dilemma and spoke up for her, "Surgeons rarely perform operations on their own family members. It's better to let other excellent doctors perform the minimally invasive stent surgery for Master."
Zhou Mengyao asked, "Why is that?"
Lin Lang replied, "Because when surgeons operate on family members, they can't bear to cut into them, leading to excessive psychological pressure. If their emotions are affected during the operation, causing them to lose focus and not operate normally, it could instead cause accidental harm to their loved ones."
"So that's how it is." Zhou Mengyao understood.

Zhuang Jingxue praised, "A Lang, you are an empathetic person who understands my difficulties as Master's wife. You truly are a sensible and good child."
Lin Lang simply smiled.
Zhou Zhongdang reassured, "Getting a stent isn't a major operation, daughter. You don't need to worry too much about your father."
"Mmm!" Zhou Mengyao nodded, her eyes red.
Lin Lang thoughtfully asked, "Master's wife, what items will Master need during his hospitalization? I'll go to a nearby supermarket to buy them now."
Zhou Zhongdang raised his wrist and glanced at his watch, saying, "A Lang, you don't need to worry about these small matters."
"It's already five o'clock in the afternoon, and there's less than an hour until the live recording of the 'Appraising Heirlooms' appraisal program. You can drive to Shanghai Television Station now. Don't get stuck in traffic and miss the main event."
"Alright, Master!"
"After I finish recording the TV program, I'll buy some nourishing tonics and come to the hospital to visit Master."
"Goodbye, Master and Master's wife!"
"Go!"
"Your Master, I, am blessed with great fortune. A Lang, you don't need to worry too much."
Zhuang Jingxue admonished, "Be careful on the road. Drive safely!"
"Yes, Master's wife."
"Goodbye, Lin Lang!" Zhou Mengyao forced out a faint smile.
"Goodbye, Mengyao!" Lin Lang hurried away.
After Lin Lang left.
Zhou Zhongdang said with relief, "A Lang, this Baby disciple, the more I look at him, the more I like him. He truly pleases me!"
Zhou Mengyao said with some lingering fear, "Dad, luckily Lin Lang discovered your heart problem today through traditional Chinese medicine facial diagnosis and didn't let you drink at the apprenticeship ceremony. Otherwise, if something had happened, we would have regretted it too late."
Clearly, Lin Lang and his Master Zhou Zhongdang mutually benefited each other, both being each other's benefactors.
Lin Lang didn't need to learn much appraisal skill from his Master Zhou Zhongdang. What he needed was the identity of being from a renowned school and the social connections of the Zhou family to help him rise rapidly and soar to success.
Backstage at the Shanghai Television Station's "Appraising Heirlooms" program recording.
"Handsome, you didn't come to the wrong set, did you?"
"Our production team needs experienced appraisers, not someone filming an idol drama. There are only a few minutes left until the official recording begins. Aren't you just messing around?"
The black-haired, blue-eyed female director Marry Yang looked at the young and handsome Lin Lang, anxious and at a loss.
The Chinese-American mixed-race beauty director Marry Yang radiated a unique blend of Eastern and Western charm. Her deep eyes were like clear lake water, her skin was fair, delicate, and smooth, her figure was tall and full, and her long hair flowed elegantly. She possessed both wisdom and beauty, exuding an extraordinary aura.

The strikingly handsome Lin Lang looked at the exotic beauty director Marry Yang and replied, "Sister Marry, I really didn't come to the wrong set. I am Lin Lang, the chief appraiser of Zhenbao Pavilion."
"Because Master was unexpectedly hospitalized this afternoon, I can only substitute for Master to record this episode of 'Appraising Heirlooms'."
Marry Yang blinked her blue eyes, looking at Lin Lang, who was dressed in a white Armani double-breasted suit and wearing a Rolex watch, looking like a domineering CEO. She said with some disbelief, "Is the chief appraiser of your Zhenbao Pavilion so young?"
Lin Lang retorted, "Will a young and handsome appraiser affect the program's ratings?"
"Uh... it won't affect the ratings." Marry Yang felt a bit dejected.
"It's just that other TV stations' appraisal programs all use middle-aged and elderly experienced appraisers. When professionally appraising antiques and estimating their value, the audience trusts them more."
"I've never seen any TV station's appraisal program use such a young and handsome 'vase' appraiser like you."
"Sister Marry, you can't belittle my talent just because I'm young. I'm a professional at antique appraisal. Although I have the capital to rely on my looks for a living, I happen to have real ability."
"Are you describing me as a 'vase' appraiser because you think I'm good-looking but useless?"
Marry Yang scratched her head anxiously, looking at the incredibly handsome Lin Lang, and said in disbelief, "Then prove it to me that you have the level to appear on the program as a professional appraiser."
Lin Lang looked Marry Yang, the beautiful director with a figure that could cause nosebleeds, up and down, and said, "The antique Thai silver ring you're wearing on your ring finger is a celibacy ring."
"Sister Marry, you are a widow, yet you adhere to the commandment of one husband, one wife, one heart, one mind, and one lifetime. Are you really that devoted?"
Marry Yang was shocked upon hearing this and gasped, "Oh my goodness!"
"You could even tell that?"
Lin Lang replied, "I just told you, I'm a professional at antique appraisal, and appraising women is my side job. Now do you believe that I have the ability of a professional appraiser and can appear on the program?"
"This is the first time I've heard a man say his side job is appraising women." Marry Yang wiped away a cold sweat.
Lin Lang replied, "This is also the first time I've seen a devoted widow wearing a celibacy ring."
"Uh... Lin Lang, this is my secret. I hope you can keep it for me and not tell my colleagues at the TV station."
"Sister Marry, I'm not that nosy. I don't like to gossip."
Just then, a male floor manager ran over anxiously and asked, "Director, the program is about to start recording. Has the absent appraiser arrived?"
Marry Yang looked at the tall and handsome Lin Lang, and after some hesitation, she clicked her tongue and replied, "There's no time to find a more experienced appraiser."
"Since you are the disciple of Appraisal Master Zhou Zhongdang, you should have the skills of an appraiser."
"We'll have to make do. Lin Lang, you'll have to appear on the program." Marry Yang looked helpless.
"Hmph~ If it weren't to save my Master, I wouldn't bother appearing on your appraisal program." Lin Lang walked from the backstage to the studio.
Marry Yang looked at Lin Lang's handsome back and thought, "Is such a handsome pretty boy appraiser really reliable?"
