"Ah, yes, it was the Health Bureau organizing a training session for us new official dical staff. They had notified earlier, and today was the registration day, but I completely forgot."
Once there was one lie, many more were needed to sustain it.
Yu Xiuxiu had always been suspicious of the relationship between Zhang Xiaoshan and Xu Jing.
Zhang Xiaoshan would never dare let Yu Xiuxiu know that he went as Xu Jing’s boyfriend to attend a school reunion.
Luckily, his acting skills were up to par.
When she heard that it was related to Zhang Xiaoshan’s official appointnt, Yu Xiuxiu imdiately beca anxious.
"Then you are too careless; how can you forget such a thing? It’s a rare opportunity to beco official. Don’t just stand there, hurry up and go," she said.
Zhang Xiaoshan said,
"There’s no rush right this mont. Besides, today is only for signing up. Classes start tomorrow morning. Let first take her ho. After all, I still need to go back and change my clothes."
"Alright, make it quick."
The group of three returned ho.
Zhang Xiaoshan prepared the dicine to replenish Qi and had Yu Xiuxiu stew it for the noblewoman to drink. He also reconnected the woman’s broken bone before he changed his clothes and planned to leave.
"Where, where are you going?"
Seeing Zhang Xiaoshan ready to leave, the noblewoman, who had just closed her eyes to rest, beca much more alert and fearful.
She had been severely traumatized, and at this mont, Zhang Xiaoshan was the only person she could trust.
Zhang Xiaoshan gently soothed the noblewoman, saying,
"Don’t be afraid. We are at my house now, and no one can harm you here. I’m going to the county to buy you so dicine. My sister-in-law will stay with you."
"Can you, can you not leave?"
The noblewoman curled up into a ball, wrapping herself in the blanket, looking at Zhang Xiaoshan with a pitiful gaze.
"Ah," seeing the noblewoman’s wretched state, Zhang Xiaoshan couldn’t help but sigh.
You should know that when they first t, the woman was haughty and looked down on people with her nose in the air.
It could be called the vicissitudes of fate.
"If I don’t go to the county to buy your dicine, how will your appearance and injuries recover?"
"Don’t worry. As soon as I get the dicine, it won’t take long for your injuries to fully recover. Then, I will send you away from White Dragon Village for good."
"Leave? Good, good..." the woman imdiately nodded frantically.
After giving Yu Xiuxiu so instructions, Zhang Xiaoshan then drove the Land Rover on the rugged mountain roads, quickly heading for the county.
Just over a month ago, he was still a poor sod who couldn’t afford a wife; in the blink of an eye, he now owned such a fine car, acquired a storefront from the Wang family, and pocketed a check for five million. The change was drastic enough to be described as earth-shaking.
All of this was thanks to Dragon Girl Susu’s blessing. Zhang Xiaoshan silently vowed in his heart that he would definitely help Susu fully awaken and ideally help her regain her physical body to repay Susu.
An hour later, he drove into the county town.
It was also around this ti that Xu Jing and Hu Caixia finished their hair at the salon and walked out.
Outside, an old model Land Rover was parked with a dark and burly old man sitting inside. He was peering towards the hair salon while speaking on the phone.
"Mr. Luo, rest assured, I guarantee I’ll bring that girl over to you."
A smug voice ca from the other end of the phone.
"Good, handle my matter well, and I will let you in on a part of the contract for the new district."
"Thanks for the boost, Mr. Luo, they are coming out now, I’ll hang up."
The brawny old man hung up the phone and got out of the car.
"Honey!"
As soon as Hu Caixia saw the old man, she ran over to him excitedly.
After a bit of affectionate display, Hu Caixia actively turned to Xu Jing and said,
"Let introduce you, this is my boyfriend Zhao Li, involved in the earthworks business in the new district. Look, he even ca in his luxury car to pick us up, let’s go."
Xu Jing glanced around and did not see Zhang Xiaoshan.
"My boyfriend, he might have run into so trouble. Then, then, you should hurriedly go. I’ll skip it," Xu Jing said with a crestfallen and slightly dejected face.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Li panicked.
Joking aside, he had already promised Luo Bing, and if Xu Jing didn’t go, how would he explain it to Luo Bing?
He quickly signaled his woman, Hu Caixia.
Imdiately catching on, Hu Caixia said loudly and exaggeratedly,
"What, not going now? That won’t do! You are the beauty of our class. If you don’t go, how disappointed those boys will be, and they might bla ?"
"Let’s go, let’s go, forget about your bumpkin boyfriend."
Hu Caixia dragged Xu Jing toward the car.
"Forget it, forget it, I really don’t want to go anymore."
"No way, sister, Mr. Luo has been waiting for you over there for a long ti, you can’t just not go," Zhao Li said a bit impatiently.
Hearing that na, Xu Jing’s face imdiately fell.
"Hu, your boyfriend also knows Luo Bing, did Luo Bing ask you to co pick up?"
Realizing he had slipped up, Zhao Li beca a bit embarrassed and said,
"Wanshan County is just that big, isn’t it normal for to know a prince like Luo Bing... "
Hu Caixia was not the least ashad but rather spoke righteously.
"Yes, Little Jing, I admit, Luo Bing asked to make sure to bring you over, but I’m doing this for your own good too. Luo Bing’s father holds a big position here in Wanshan County; he essentially controls the public security, easily among the top five. He’s now a contractor in the new district, making at least three to four hundred thousand a year. If you really end up with him, you would live like a rich wife, much better than following that village doctor in the mountains," she argued.
Xu Jing defiantly said,
"Who says he’s better than Xiao Shan? Xiao Shan relies on his own abilities, but Luo Bing just rides on his father’s coattails."
"Even if Xiao Shan stays in the village all his life, I’m willing to be his wife."
These words almost burst out of Xu Jing without thought, each one a true sentint from her heart.
She might not even realize it, but sohow, Zhang Xiaoshan had occupied a big part of her heart.
"So my charm is that strong, huh?"
Suddenly, a cheerful voice ca from behind Xu Jing.
