329: Chapter 329: What I Fear Least is Trouble 329: Chapter 329: What I Fear Least is Trouble “Hmm,” Liu Shiyi frowned, slightly puzzled as she looked at Rao Yuanzhen.
Donglin First Hospital’s top acupuncturist actually wanted to invite Tangyu to dinner, was it really just a simple al?
Could it be possible that Rao Yuanzhen was planning to use her brother’s influence to deal with Tangyu, thus setting up a sort of ‘Hongn banquet’?
Tangyu let out a light laugh.
He hadn’t expected Rao Yuanzhen to actually invite him to a banquet.
If the other party really was from the Holy Doctor Sect, then Tangyu could understand this move.
Besides, Tangyu had also wanted to et this top acupuncturist from Donglin First Hospital.
Last ti at Donglin Hospital they had only t briefly, but now Tangyu suspected that they might be from the Holy Doctor Sect.
If they really were from the Holy Doctor Sect, then he definitely needed to et them.
“Alright, but I have to work tomorrow morning.
I get off work at eleven-thirty, so I’ll co over after that,” Tangyu said.
“Okay, then I’ll pick you up tomorrow at noon.
Where will you be?” Rao Yuanzhen asked.
“At Linshan Middle School,” Tangyu replied.
Rao Yuanzhen was slightly taken aback, but quickly covered it up: “Alright.” After speaking, Rao Yuanzhen glanced at Liu Shiyi and said, “Don’t misunderstand, I have no ill intentions.
My brother simply admires Tangyu’s dical skills and wants to get to know him.
It’s just a simple al, nothing more.
I, Rao Yuanzhen, wouldn’t stoop to such despicable acts.”
Upon hearing Rao Yuanzhen’s explanation, Liu Shiyi felt more at ease: “Hmm, I was overthinking it.” She didn’t deny her suspicions either.
“Farewell, see you tomorrow,” Rao Yuanzhen bid goodbye and quickly left.
‘Yu Yue Hong’ Hotpot Restaurant was the place Liu Shiyi had chosen for dining.
She wasn’t particularly fond of hotpot, but today she suddenly felt like having so.
Tangyu wasn’t fussy about food; he was fine with anything edible.
Even though it was still autumn and not cold, there were quite a few people eating hotpot.
The two found a spot in the corner and sat down.
Liu Shiyi grabbed the nu: “Tangyu, you order.”
“I’m easygoing.
You order.
I never like to pick dishes when eating,” Tangyu said.
Liu Shiyi unceremoniously started ordering, and after she had made her choices, she handed the nu to the waiter.
“Your family’s business hasn’t been affected by what happened last ti, has it?” Tangyu asked, starting a conversation.
Liu Shiyi nodded: “Hmm, no.
Not only has it not been affected, but business has even been a bit better than before.
In fact, many people who co to seek dical help are asking about you.
Now, in our family’s pharmacy, you’re even more famous than my grandfather.”
“Hehe, is that so?
Then how about I ask your grandfather to hire to work at your family’s pharmacy,” Tangyu joked.
Liu Shiyi smiled wryly; she sure wished for such a good thing to happen.
“Yo, isn’t that our hospital’s flower, the beautiful Miss Liu?
It’s rare to see you out here, and you’re dining with soone who looks a bit older.
Is he your cousin or brother?” An abrasive voice suddenly rang out.
Two young n in ornate attire approached.
Since they ntioned ‘our hospital,’ they must be from the Chinese dicine Institute.
Just one look at them, and you could tell they were spoilt offspring from rich families.
Seeing these two n, Liu Shiyi’s brows furrowed involuntarily: “Please show so respect when you speak.
I’m not familiar with you, so don’t disturb our al.”
“Hehe, we’re all from the sa institute.
No need to hurry us away like that.
At first, everyone is a stranger, but with ti, we beco acquainted,” said the two n, showing no intention of leaving as they continued to tease her unabashedly.
Tangyu pursed his lips, feeling a bit annoyed.
Why was it that every ti he had a dining date alone with a beautiful woman like Liu Shiyi, so clueless fools would jump out?
Was it really that difficult to have a quiet al and a chat?
Just because he was a little handso, did he have to attract so much jealousy?
“Do you know them?” Tangyu asked.
Liu Shiyi shook her head: “I don’t.”
“If you don’t know them, then please leave us be,” Tangyu turned his head to look at the two n and said with a smile.
Although he was smiling, there was an undeniable authority in his tone that made it difficult to refuse.
The two n’s faces imdiately darkened with anger, and the one who had spoken earlier glared hatefully at Tangyu: “And who the hell are you?
Since when is this your house?”
“So you’re saying you won’t leave?” Tangyu said coldly.
“Hmph, stop putting on airs.
I hate this sort of person the most.
I’ve bought this spot, so how about you leave, alright?” The man pulled out a stack of hundred-yuan bills from his bag and slapped them on the table in front of Tangyu.
“You really want to buy my spot?” Tangyu asked.
Seeing Tangyu ‘back down,’ the man’s face lit up with smug satisfaction.
In his view, there was nothing money couldn’t solve in this world.
Look, he threw down ten thousand yuan, and this guy’s eyes were already turning red.
“That’s right.
As long as you give up your spot, this ten thousand yuan is yours,” said the man.
Tangyu nonchalantly collected the ten thousand yuan, stood up, and said to Liu Shiyi, “Since soone has taken a liking to our spot and is willing to pay a good price, let’s give it to them.
Helping others is the source of joy, after all.
We can just move to the spot next door; the food hasn’t been served yet anyway.”
Liu Shiyi had no idea what kind of trick Tangyu was playing at first, but when she heard his explanation, she couldn’t help but mockingly laugh, amused by his clever move.
“Sure, let’s go sit over there,” Liu Shiyi agreed with a nod.
The two boys were feeling quite proud of themselves, wanting to show off in front of Liu Shiyi.
Of course, ten thousand yuan wasn’t much to them.
If they could use the money to take a jab at the guy dining with Liu Shiyi and impress her in the process, they were more than happy to do so.
After all, Liu Shiyi was the acknowledged beauty of the College of Traditional Chinese dicine, even the goddess of the college.
Nearly every male student in the college held her in adoration.
If this had been at school, the two might not have been so bold, but having encountered her here, they couldn’t resist teasing her.
Even if they couldn’t win her over, teasing such a beauty was pleasure enough.
But now they had been thoroughly outplayed by Tangyu.
“I’m only telling one person to leave; I’m buying just one person’s seat,” said the boy with an ugly look as he glared at Tangyu.
Tangyu nodded and replied, “Right, you’re buying my seat only.
You’ve paid and now my seat is yours.
As for my friend’s seat, I believe she’s offering it to you voluntarily.
Don’t worry, her seat is on the house, won’t cost you a di—consider it a buy-one-get-one-free deal.
There you are, both of you can sit down and enjoy a hotpot al.”
The boys were thoroughly taken aback, not having anticipated this move from Tangyu.
Liu Shiyi couldn’t help but snicker to herself.
Tangyu had managed to turn the situation into sothing hilariously beneficial for them; he truly was sothing else.
With an irritated grunt, one of the boys, red-faced with anger, swung a fist at Tangyu.
Watching the boy start a fight right there shocked Liu Shiyi, leaving her shaken.
The surrounding diners turned to look in their direction.
“Hmph,” Tangyu snorted.
He believed in not provoking others without cause, and had hoped to keep the peace, but it seed inevitable now.
If that was the case, the only option was to fight fire with fire.
Although he wasn’t a fan of using brute force, he had to admit that sotis it was the best solution.
“Smack!”
Before the boy’s fist could even reach Tangyu, Tangyu landed a punch on the boy’s nose, collapsing it and causing two streams of blood to spray out.
The boy howled in pain, hands clutching his nose, but the blood still seeped through his fingers.
His eyes, wide with shock and rage, stared at Tangyu: “Motherfucker, you hit .” His friend, montarily stunned, then stared at Tangyu furiously: “You asking for it, huh?
You know who we are?”
“I don’t care who you are.
If you ss with , you pay the price, no exceptions,” Tangyu responded indifferently.
At that mont, a middle-aged man and two security guards approached.
The man pointed at the two boys and said, “Daring to cause trouble in my place?
You’ve got guts.
Throw them out.”
The two boys were unfazed.
“You dare?” they challenged.
“Hmph, kick them out,” the middle-aged man uttered coolly, instructing the security.
They imdiately grabbed the two boys and began dragging them outside.
The boys shouted angrily, spouting threats of retaliation, but Tangyu didn’t care.
Soon enough, the security had ejected the boys from the premises.
The middle-aged man turned to the other diners with a smile and waved his hands, saying, “All right, nothing to see here, continue with your al.”
Afterward, the man turned to Tangyu and Liu Shiyi, offering an apologetic smile.
“My apologies to both of you for the disturbance.
Please, go ahead and sit down—this al is on .”
Liu Shiyi was taken aback.
Was the owner really that generous?
Just because of a small incident, he was offering them a free al?
Tangyu squinted his eyes with a smile and asked the middle-aged man, “Do you know ?”
“Haha, of course, I know Brother Tiger’s friends.
He’s shown your photo before; how could I not recognize you?
Big brother, take your ti and enjoy your al.
I didn’t react promptly earlier but assure you that you won’t be disturbed anymore,” said the man, nodding continuously with respectful regard.
“Oh, I see.
Well, thank you then.
No need for formalities, soone has already paid,” Tangyu said with a nod, referring to the ten thousand yuan they had already secured.
The middle-aged man didn’t dare say more, nodding his head before taking his leave.
Once the middle-aged man left, Liu Shiyi glanced at Tangyu, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes: “Seems like you’re doing quite well for yourself.”
“Ahem, not really.
I just have a friend who’s quite influential around here, so the owners show so respect,” Tangyu quickly explained, not wanting Liu Shiyi to get the wrong idea that he was involved in shady dealings.
“Alright, I was just joking.
I know you’re not that type of person.
But still, thank you.
You’ve once again stirred up trouble for my sake, and those two aren’t simple characters.
You might be in for so trouble,” Liu Shiyi said, expressing her concern.
She felt a little upset—why did trouble always follow when she was with Tangyu?
It had been Rao Yuanzhen in the morning, and now two rich young masters.
With a laugh and an unconcerned expression, Tangyu replied, “The last thing I’m afraid of is trouble.
They may have complicated identities, but mine is even more so, very complicated.
Thus, I’m not afraid of them.
No, that’s not right.
I don’t even consider them worth worrying about, so you don’t need to be concerned for .
Besides, in ancient tis, heroes would beco enraged over a beautiful woman’s plight.
To think that dining with you attracts trouble ans your charm is imnse, and I should feel honored.
I actually hope a few more groups would show up.”
Liu Shiyi was montarily speechless, yet there was an inexplicable sweetness in her heart.
