Divine Doctor and His CEO Wife Chapter 113: Infiltration

Chen Xiao pursed his lips. "Fine."

After all, Li Buyi was sothing of a teammate assigned to him by Leng Baiyu. If sothing really happened to him, it would be difficult to explain.

"Thank you, Mr. Chen! Thank you so much!" Xu Qingfeng said profusely, overwheld with gratitude. With Chen Xiao willing to save Li Buyi, he had dodged a bullet himself.

Chen Xiao then reminded him, "Rember to handle the paperwork with the Zhang Family."

"Yes, yes, of course!" Xu Qingfeng replied with a genial expression. "Miss Zhang, if you need anything at all in the future, just let know."

Zhang Yaqing nodded. "Then I’ll be troubling you, Director Xu."

"I have so business at the City Governor’s Mansion," Chen Xiao told Zhang Yaqing. "You can handle the rest from here."

"Alright."

The siblings, Zhang Yaqing and Zhang Wudao, watched as Chen Xiao and Xu Qingfeng departed.

Once they were out of earshot, Zhang Wudao smacked his lips in astonishnt. "Sis, what’s Mr. Chen’s background? Even the perpetually arrogant Xu Qingfeng is sucking up to him like that. Sis, you’d better latch onto this powerhouse!"

Zhang Yaqing rolled her eyes at him. "You think I need you to tell that? Don’t you dare doubt your sister’s charm, okay?"

「City Governor’s Mansion.」

Hearing that Chen Xiao was about to arrive, a group of people imdiately ca out to greet him.

Li Chenqian and Lin Murong respectfully ushered Chen Xiao inside.

Seeing Li Buyi lying on the sickbed with an ashen-gray face, Chen Xiao shook his head and sighed. "I told him not to eat raw-marinated delicacies, but he just wouldn’t listen. See? He almost died."

Li Chenqian gave a wry smile. "Mr. Chen, you may not know this, but my father is from Yue Province. Raw-marinated delicacies are his life."

Is it really that good? Chen Xiao muttered to himself, then took out his silver needles and jabbed them into Li Buyi’s body.

Twelve needles fell like lightning, and then... they all began to hum in unison!

Witnessing this, Li Zhengming’s beard trembled with excitent. "The Grand Circulation! It’s actually the legendary Grand Circulation! To think I would get to witness such a divine miracle in my lifeti!"

Lin Murong asked curiously, "Divine Doctor Li, what is the Grand Circulation?"

"The Grand Circulation is a legendary realm in traditional Chinese dicine. A doctor who reaches this level has dical skills that are considered nigh-divine! Soone like that might not appear even once in several hundred years!"

Everyone couldn’t help but gasp in amazent. How could his dical skills be so terrifyingly advanced at his young age?

Soon, they saw wisps of bluish smoke rising from the top of Li Buyi’s head, carrying a chill that made everyone shiver.

"The cold energy has been completely expelled," Chen Xiao announced as he retrieved all the silver needles.

Li Buyi, who had been unconscious the entire ti, slowly opened his eyes. "What... what happened to ?"

Li Chenqian recounted the entire incident to him.

Hearing the story, Li Buyi’s face turned deathly pale. The very picture of soone who had just escaped death’s grasp, he struggled to sit up, cupped his hands toward Chen Xiao, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Chen, for saving my life! If you ever need anything from , just say the word!"

He had looked down on Chen Xiao before, but seeing his abilities firsthand had completely changed his opinion. This young man was definitely a master! Thinking about it, that made sense. How could Leng Baiyu’s junior martial brother be an ordinary person?

"We can talk about that if the ti cos," Chen Xiao said coolly. "You’re fine now. I’ll be going."

Li Buyi was, after all, the head of a city. Perhaps he really could be of so help in the future.

"Um..." Li Buyi asked weakly, "Mr. Chen... can I still eat raw-marinated delicacies in the future?"

Chen Xiao was speechless.

"Eat it if you’re not afraid to die."

At this, Li Buyi sighed as if all the strength had been drained from his body. "I still have quite a stash at ho... What a waste..."

Chen Xiao stroked his chin. "Not a waste. It’s the perfect chance for to see if it’s really that delicious."

Everyone was speechless.

Before he left, Li Buyi watched with a pained expression as Chen Xiao completely filled the trunk of his car. That... was his lifeblood!

「Inside the villa.」

Exhausted, Li Chenqian collapsed onto the sofa. The floor was piled high with the raw-marinated delicacies Chen Xiao had brought back from the City Governor’s Mansion.

Hearing the commotion, Li Biyun rushed downstairs. When she saw the heap of local delicacies in the living room, her eyes lit up. "Big Brother Chen Xiao, what is all this?"

"So specialty foods from the City Governor," Chen Xiao said with a small smile. "Everyone can have a taste tonight."

"Yay! Aweso!" Li Biyun was practically drooling. This stuff looks delicious at first glance.

Xu Yanran ca downstairs in her pajamas. Seeing the dazzling array of raw-marinated delicacies, she couldn’t help but make a sarcastic comnt. "Where’d you pull off this heist? And is Young Master Li here too?"

Li Chenqian gave an awkward smile. "This is just a small token of my father’s appreciation for Mr. Chen."

"A collection from City Governor Li himself," Xu Yanran said, her interest suddenly piqued.

Chen Xiao sneered. "There’s none for you, so don’t even think about it."

He still rembered how this woman had accepted a favor from him, only to turn around and tattle to Luo Qingli.

Xu Yanran’s pretty face turned ashen. She crossed her arms and retorted haughtily, "Who cares?"

"You’d better not," Chen Xiao said scornfully.

Unable to save face, Xu Yanran huffed and stord back upstairs.

Li Chenqian handed a business card to Chen Xiao. "Mr. Chen, this is my father’s card. If you ever need any help in the future, please don’t hesitate to contact him."

"Alright." Chen Xiao took the card and stuffed it into his pocket.

Li Chenqian tactfully took his leave.

"I’ll go get the food ready!" Li Biyun chirped, padding off in her little cotton slippers.

Soon, Luo Qingli returned to the villa and was shocked to see the piles of raw-marinated delicacies. "Where did this all co from?"

"It was a gift. I hear it’s a specialty from East Yue," Chen Xiao replied casually.

"Is this edible?" Luo Qingli asked curiously. She had never tried anything like it before.

Chen Xiao raised an eyebrow. "Why not try it and find out?"

An hour later, Chen Xiao, Luo Qingli, and Li Biyun were sprawled out on the sofa in a blissful stupor, their mouths slick with oil from the feast.

"That was amazing!" Luo Qingli and Li Biyun exclaid, their faces glowing with satisfaction. They wanted more, but they were simply too full to eat another bite.

Chen Xiao finally understood why Li Buyi was willing to risk his life for the stuff.

Luo Qingli suddenly realized sothing. "Where’s Aunt Xu? Isn’t she here today? Why didn’t she co down for dinner?"

Just as Li Biyun was about to speak, Chen Xiao cut in, "She wasn’t hungry. She looks down on these local delicacies."

"Oh." Luo Qingli nodded thoughtfully.

Upstairs, Xu Yanran was eavesdropping and grinding her teeth in frustration. That guy is blaming the victim, isn’t he? How infuriating!

She gulped. Are these raw-marinated delicacies really that good? A collection from City Governor Li himself shouldn’t be too bad, right? If Chen Xiao won’t give her any, she’ll just take so herself! A traditional skill must not be lost.

Around three or four in the morning, after the sounds from the next room had died down, Xu Yanran tiptoed out of her room. She crept down to the small first-floor storeroom and was about to go inside when her ears suddenly pricked up.

「Outside the villa.」

Faint footsteps could be heard from outside. She whipped her head around just in ti to see two black figures flash past the window.

Soone’s broken in? And by the looks of it, they’re two Martial Dao experts! Her senses on high alert, she imdiately lightened her steps and stealthily followed.

SWOOSH! Two figures silently scaled the wall to the second-floor balcony.

"Move it! Grab the item and let’s go. Don’t alert that kid!"
