Physician’s Odyssey,Chapter 508 - A harmonious stage - Read free novels online

In terms of face, Jiang Qinghan looked the most delicate. Furthermore, due to her career as a police officer, she had a heroic aura around her. She wore a white shirt without any decorations along with black casual pants that shaped her legs and a pair of flat leather shoes. Although her makeup was simple, her natural beauty was stunning.

On the other hand, Cai Yan had an oval face with bright eyes, rosy lips, and curved brows. The impressive curves on her chest permeated with a domineering feminine aura. On the outside, she wore a white flowery-patterned shawl while having black suspenders on the inside. They were made with soft materials, which didn't look tight on her impressive figure. Her scarlet hair draped over her shoulders and was wearing light blue jeans with a pair of cute heels. Since she did not wear any stockings, her painted nails were revealed in the air. At the same time, she would permeate a sweet and sexy aura in her actions.

As for Ni Jingqiu, her looks might be inferior when compared to the two other ladies, but she wasn't too bad herself. With her excellent make-up skills, her somewhat square-ish face looked more rounded, looking both natural and elegant. She wore a blue innocent creased shirt and a black tight-fitting skirt. Her fair legs were akin to two tender lotuses and she wore light-colored stockings with a pair of dark purple sandals that gave off an artistic sense.

This was a stage for the three women.

It meant that women were naturally talkative, and they naturally had their own topics when gathered together.

When the three ladies came together, Su Tao was flabbergasted as intense sparks flew between the three women.

Then again, this was a buzzworthy sight.

"Where did you get this shirt from? It looks very compatible with your temperament!" Women generally started their topics on clothes, which Cai Yan wittily praised Ni Jingqiu to reduce their distance.

"My secretary managed my clothes, I just casually picked one. On the other hand, your clothes look pretty unique. I like clothes that look flashy with crystals on the collar." Ni Jingqiu tactfully returned Cai Yan's praises.

"Then again, I don't think clothes should be that complicated. Take Big Sister Qinghan's clothes, for example. She just gives off a capable and experienced aura with her clothes!" Cai Yan praised with some exaggeration and continued, "I really admire Big Sister Qinghan's figure. She's so well proportioned, I can't imagine that she has a daughter!"

"Really?" Jiang Qinghan widened her eyes in astonishment.

"I really can't tell! She only looks to be in her late twenties, at most!"

Although Jiang Qinghan was known to be an iron lady in the team, she still showed her feminine side when she was placed with two capable women and smiled. "I'm already a withered flower compared to the two of you. Compared to the two of you, my skin is more rough and loose."

"You must be joking!" Both Ni Jingqiu and Cai Yan said at the same time.

Women's topics were generally about clothes, which was why women liked to go shopping. It's so that they could chat with their friends and not be in a disadvantageous position in things like the latest fashion, latest make-up products, slimming down methods, and how to play to one's strengths in their clothing style.

On the other hand, men's topics were generally different, since they usually revolved around the present day situation and investments.

Finally, Su Tao couldn't take it anymore and knocked his finger on the table. "Can you guys be more normal? I'm about to vomit from how you guys are flattering each other. Can't we have a normal meal together?"

"What do you know?!" Ni Jingqiu was the first to roll her eyes at Su Tao. "We're admiring each other from the bottom of our hearts."

"Su Tao, you have a lot of merits, but your flaws are also evident. You're afraid of being neglected, right?" Cai Yan also spoke up.

"Probably because we're too lively and neglected him!" Even Jiang Qinghan gave a stab at Su Tao.

Thereafter, the three women started to target Su Tao with all sorts of criticism.

But Su Tao wasn't angry about that. On the contrary, he even felt relaxed. Although he had become the public enemy here, it was all worth it if the three ladies can harmoniously interact with each other.

While they teased, mocked, and joked about Su Tao, he maintained his silence on the side.

"Big Sister Qinghan, did you know? When I was young, my dream was to be a police officer to punish evil and uphold justice." Cai Yan said in admiration to Jiang Qinghan and continued, "But it's a pity that my health wasn't good when I grew up. I chose the military academy when I finished high school and managed to pass the written examination, but I failed the physical examination."

"My father was also a police officer, who died in the line of duty from enemies' revenge when I was in high school. Since then, I've decided to take over his job. In the beginning, I was also an officer at a local police station. It was only in a chain rape-and-murder case that they needed a female undercover officer and chose me."

"Then, was the culprit caught?" Ni Jingqiu was captivated by the story.

Nodding her head, Jiang Qinghan answered, "The culprit was extremely cunning and was also proficient in using drugs. Without me knowing, I was knocked out. But by the time I regained consciousness, I saw my husband, who saved me."

"Then, the two of you fell in love with each other?" Cai Yan grew a little emotional. "How romantic, what an envious relationship."

Wearing a bitter smile on his lips, Su Tao interrupted, "I've also saved you numerous times, like the underground research facility…"

"Hush! Why are you interrupting women talking?" Cai Yan swiftly shut down Su Tao's intention to boast his bravery.

Smiling bitterly, Su Tao could only lower his head and continue to deal with the food on the desk.

For some reason, Jiang Qinghan couldn't help smiling upon seeing the sunken Su Tao. All of a sudden, the scenes of how Su Tao saved her numerous times flashed in her mind, like the mercenary gunfight in the People's Hospital at Qiongjin City, the tomb, and how they nearly got killed by Ma Huiteng and his martial nephew…

Her deceased husband only saved her once, but Su Tao saved her numerous times.

Seeing how the three women chatted, Su Tao could only bury himself in the food, since he couldn't join the chat. A moment later, he rose from his seat and headed to the washroom to aid his digestion.

When he passed by a private room, he accidentally swept a glance at it and saw a familiar figure. Isn't that Yuan Cui, the wife of Gu Rushan's cousin?

Although the table wasn't full, it was filled with exquisite dishes. As Yuan Cui smiled, she raised her wine glass and cheered with someone.

But Su Tao did not pay any attention to it even if he felt that something was amiss. After all, he had already confessed to Gu Rushan's family, and there's no need for him to poke his nose into their business anymore.

Standing inside a cubical, he could hear the conversation next door that seemed to be someone on the phone.

"I just saw Young Master Zhen, I never expected that he's becoming even more perverse and would even take an interest in a woman like her."

A reply then sounded from the phone, "Young Master Zhen has always been unique, so just watch. Remember to help him record a video when he's having fun later!!"

"I've drank quite a bit myself!" A hiccup was heard from the man as he chuckled, "I'm afraid that my hands might not be steady, which is why I called you for backup!"

"I'm not free! I just got on the bed and was about to start my program!" The voice from the phone immediately rejected.

Ten-odd seconds later, Su Tao came out together with that person when he heard the toilet flushing and saw him entering Yuan Cui's private room. He couldn't help frowning as he analysed. Could it be that Zhen Difei is together with the wife of Gu Rushan's cousin?

Zhen Difei and Ni Jingqiu were cousins, so it wasn't surprising for the two of them to come to the same restaurant.

But oddly, Zhen Difei was someone who framed Yuan Cui, so why were the two of them together?

Thus, his first response was that Yuan Cui has fallen for another trap!

Although he had no favorable impression about Yuan Cui, he still sent Gu Rushan a message out of his concern for the latter.

"I saw your cousin's wife drinking with someone, and the other party is plotting something. It's best if you deal with it immediately before it blows up."

"Thank you for your concern!" Gu Rushan's reply was short.

He had already done what he could to the best of his ability, since he saved Yuan Cui once. So if she was going to sell herself low, then there's nothing he could do.

He could save a person once or twice, but he couldn't possibly save her forever, not to mention that he did not have a good relationship with that woman, to begin with.

He had already been bitten twice, so there's no need for him to be bitten thrice.

Sitting in the private room, Yuan Cui drank a few mouthfuls of wine with her face flushed from the alcohol. But Zhen Difei still filled Yuan Cui's cup full again and smiled. "Big Sister Yuan's liquor capacity is really good!"

"I can't help it. For a woman to survive, we need some skills. My husband might have a stable income as a civil servant, but it's too little. Drinking is a capability of mine that got me many deals." Yuan Cui smugged.

"You have my promise that if you make us happy, I'll give you a huge order tomorrow." Zhen Difei immediately said.

"Really?" Yuan Cui smiled as she pursed her lips. "But I'm very greedy!"

"I have some connections, and I know people in Shanzhou Province's business industry. So I can easily get you a few deals with just a call! As you know, people like them are afraid of accidents, so insurance is definitely a welcome to them." Zhen Difei replied.

"Really? If Young Master Zhen can help me in this matter, then the incident from before will be written off!" Yuan Cui raised her neck and gulped down all the wine in the glass.
