Chapter 33: Chapter 33 Earning So Pocket Money_1
Zhang Xian turned his head, feeling a bit nervous.
This woman isn’t an easy custor, who knows what kind of tricks she’s planning.
"First, let’s find a place to eat, then we can have a good chat." Elder Sister Cheng smiled and started walking towards the rcedes car not far away.
Zhang Xian followed behind Cheng, feeling as if he was beating a drum in his heart. A chat? What did that an? She really wants to have a chat?
After settling in a decent-looking restaurant, he asked with a smile, "So, Elder Sister Cheng, what was that good suggestion you were talking about earlier?"
"You’re pretty good at fighting, right?" Cheng smiled as she asked.
"Not bad, I can handle a few guys at once." Zhang Xian nodded.
"Well then, don’t let that go to waste." Cheng laughed and said, "You know, a beautiful woman like
is always in trouble. So, I want you to help deal with it."
"Holy shit, is that why you said you were interested in
before? You want
to be your errand boy and drive away those annoying flies for you?" Zhang Xian’s mouth twitched unnaturally a few tis. Afterwards, he curiously asked, "But why does it feel wrong? You didn’t ask
to do this before, it seems like you had other motives and were deliberately playing a one-person show."
"Are you showing off your observational skills? Why would I play a one-person show?" Cheng snapped back.
"Erm, you know, I’m just curious." responded Zhang Xian with a sneer.
From their very first eting, Cheng always claid she was interested in him, a young lad. If it was a joke, once wouldn’t matter, especially with Zhu Qing around.
What was strange was that Zhu Qing did not seem to be joking, but frequently ntioned it, as if purposely reminding him of sothing.
"Why are you asking so many questions?" Cheng glared at Zhang Xian and asked, "Right now, we’re discussing serious matters. Are you going to help
deal with these flies or not?"
"Do I have a choice?" Zhang Xian asked with a bitter smile.
"Ah, Little Xian Xian, why do you look so unwilling? It’s heartbreaking, just like a man who just lost his wife." Cheng chuckled sardonically. "Fine, if you want to help then help, but if you don’t want to, I won’t pressure you. Don’t say later that I’m unkind or heartless, forcing you to do sothing against your will. I can’t stand to be the bad guy."
"No, I certainly didn’t an that, to be of service to Elder Sister Cheng is my honor." Zhang Xian hurriedly shook his head.
"Really, I didn’t force you, you’re doing this voluntarily?" Cheng asked, barely holding back her laughter.
"Completely voluntary, willing of my own accord, both of us willing." Zhang Xian responded with a smile more grimace than grin and said ’seriously’.
Although Cheng seed very magnanimous on the surface, it was obvious to everyone that she had him wrapped around her little finger. If he really refused, then their deal for the herbs would surely be over.
Handled so minor troubles, when compared with his cultivation plan it seed insignificant, how could he not accept Cheng’s request?
"Great, Now your phone must be on twenty-four hours a day. I might call you anyti, and you must be at my disposal whenever I call." Cheng happily declared.
"At your disposal, twenty-four hours a day?" Zhang Xian’s eyes widened.
"Yeah, twenty-four hours a day, full-ti, excluding holidays and lunch breaks." Cheng nodded with a grin.
"Isn’t... Isn’t that being screwed over?"
"Screwed over? Really?" Cheng was taken aback, and then asked, "Little Xian Xian, why do I get the feeling you’re not happy about it? Or should you just leave it?"
"No, absolutely not." Zhang Xian quickly laughed, "Elder Sister Cheng, didn’t you notice how happy I am laughing? This is a heartfelt smile, absolutely sincere, absolutely genuine."
"Mmm, I’m glad I didn’t pamper you for nothing." Cheng nodded, suppressing her laughter.
Zhang Xian kept nodding his head, but in his heart he was cursing. So people are shaless when they speak, they’d only known each other for two days, when had Cheng ever pampered him?
Of course, he only dared to think about this in his heart, and didn’t dare to say it out loud. On the surface, he was still smiling, "Uh, Elder Sister Cheng, is that Ge DaBao fellow one of the flies you want
to deal with?"
"Including but not limited to, do you understand what I an?"
"No... no..." Zhang Xian said anxiously, "Elder Sister Cheng, including but not limited to, doesn’t that seem a bit..."
"What? Are you not happy? If you regret, it’s still not too late now!"
"I... uh... I am very pleased." Zhang Xian hesitated for a mont, but eventually chose to submit.
However, recalling Cheng’s words just now, he couldn’t help but feel agonized. Including but not limited to, what does that an? Does that an he has to follow her in whatever she wants as long as he needs her favor?
A beauty like Cheng, he didn’t think she would have no suitors, that’d be a full-ti job, without breaks even on holidays!
"Hehe, look at you." After a disdainful glance at Zhang Xian, Cheng couldn’t help but add so sweetness, "Relax, if you’re willing to help , I won’t let you go unrewarded."
"Really?" Zhang Xian’s eyes lit up.
"When have I ever lied to you?" Cheng smirked charmingly. "If you manage to satisfy , I might even give myself to you!"
"Uh..." Zhang Xian was startled and quickly reminded, "First things first, Elder Sister Cheng, I sell my skills, not my body. You can’t go too far, and I’ll scream if you do."
"Zhang Xian, you...you...why don’t you go die?" Cheng was stunned for a mont, then stood up in a fury.
She had just flirted with Zhang Xian subconsciously, and yet again, she was rejected. For a beauty like her, isn’t that a bit too much?
......
By the ti she returned to Humanity Clinic, it was already one in the afternoon.
Sitting on a chair, Zhang Xian was staring at the ceiling, lost in thought.
It seed like he had offended Mu Cheng again today, and quite badly at that. He couldn’t understand why won were so emotional, always quick to anger.
"Oh, Zhang Xian, you’re back? How did it go?" Zhu Wen ca out from inside, smiling as he asked.
"The negotiation was successful, but I don’t know what will happen in the future." Zhang Xian was sowhat uncertain. Mainly because, at the restaurant earlier, Mu Cheng was too furious, and he was worried there might be repercussions.
"What do you an?" Zhu Wen was puzzled.
Zhang Xian glanced at Zhu Wen and asked, "Old man Zhu, why are won so emotional? They are always blowing up!"
"Hahaha..." Zhu Wen laughed loudly and asked, "Did you offend her?"
Zhang Xian nodded honestly, feeling quite depressed.
"Don’t worry, relationships are built through argunts. She wouldn’t get angry if it wasn’t you!" Zhu Wen said with a laugh.
"Really?" Zhang Xian asked with a smile.
"Well, Zhang Xian, I find that when it cos to won, you’re completely clueless!" Zhu Wen said with a wry smile: "As a man, how could you be this ignorant?"
Zhang Xian looked at Zhu Wen resentfully without answering. How could he, who had lived through the wilderness every day with an old man, handle won?
The ti he spent in the mountains was truly distressing, dull, and devoid of any enjoynt. It was no way to live!
"Haha, Doctor Zhu, you’re certainly relaxed!"
Suddenly, a loud voice rang out. Then an old man in a white coat walked in, his laughter noticeably off-putting.
Behind him was a middle-aged man, limping as he walked, gritting his teeth. Clearly he had injured his foot and was in pain as he walked.
"Doctor Qi, what brings you here?" asked Zhu Wen with annoyance.
"Ah, I thought your clinic seed a bit quiet, so I ca to bring you so business," Doctor Qi laughed, "I’m very busy over there, so busy I can’t handle it all, This poor guy twisted his ankle, can you help
look at him? It’s very ti-consuming. Don’t worry, as an old friend, I won’t take any referral fee from you. Feel free to treat him, I see you’re not too busy anyway."
"You...." Zhu Wen was infuriated.
Normally, Old Man Qi is indeed very busy, but why does he sotis seem so idle? Is it because he gets more patients? Does he really have to show off like that?
"Brother, there’s no rush, right? Just let him take a look."
Doctor Qi gave Zhu Wen a squinted smile and said to the patient behind him, "You have seen the situation back there. I really don’t have the ti. I didn’t realize it initially and I couldn’t treat you right away."
"Doctor Qi, I ca to your clinic for treatnt. How can you bring
here?" the patient asked dissatisfiedly.
"No worries, this old fellow is a divine doctor, quite famous." Doctor Qi laughed.
"Are you kidding ? If he is really such a great doctor, why is this clinic so quiet? There’s not even a soul in sight." The patient seed doubtful of the capability of Humanity Clinic.
"Well... I don’t know how to explain that, but his dical skills are indeed excellent. Lack of popularity does not an he can’t do his work!"
"I...I’d rather not get treated here. It’d cost too much." The patient shook his head like a rattle drum.
Zhu Wen, at that mont, was furious! Were these two deliberately mocking him? Being less popular doesn’t an his dical skills are inadequate! If they talked about skills, he was at par with Qi if not better.
"Say, how about we make a bet?" Zhang Xian said from his chair, looking at the patient with a hint of a smile.
"What bet?" the patient asked.
"How much money do you have on you?" Zhang Xian asked with a smile.
"Why are you asking?" The patient looked suspicious, as if fearing Zhang Xian was going to rob him.
"You’ve just twisted your foot. If I can make you jump around in one minute, you give
all the money on you. How about that?" Zhang Xian asked with a smile.
"Are you bluffing?" The patient looked disbelief.
"Well..." Old Qi stepped forward, circled Zhang Xian, and asked Zhu Wen, "Doctor Zhu, is this guy your disciple?"
"How is that possible?" Zhu Wen glanced at Doctor Qi and sneered, "Don’t think that your age gives you the right to act superior. In terms of dical skills, you’re no match for him even if you tried."
"You..." Doctor Qi stared at Zhu Wen, insulted. He snorted, "Doctor Zhu, I know business at your clinic is slow, and all the patients are at my clinic. But do you really need to bring a kid to undermine ? Can this even be called a divine doctor? Haven’t you heard the saying, ’a boy without a mustache is sure to ss things up’?"
"Why not make a bet as well?" Zhang Xian looked at Doctor Qi and smiled, "If the patient cannot jump around after a minute, I’ll pay you back double."
