Divine Doctor and His CEO Wife Chapter 115: You Wouldn’t Want Them to See You Either, Right

Zhu Baixi had soone steal the Dragon Heart Herb simply to fra Jiang Tianquan, hoping to make Chen Xiao and Jiang Tianquan tear each other apart while she watched from a safe distance. This ploy to divert disaster was undeniably sinister, yet also quite clever. Chen Xiao and Jiang Tianquan were both her enemies. Once they started fighting, she would be the one to reap the rewards.

Nearby, Xu Yanran was extrely dissatisfied. "Chen Xiao! What’s with that attitude? I got injured helping you catch the thief, and you can’t even show a little concern?"

Chen Xiao glanced at her and waved his hand dismissively. "Go to the storeroom and grab a couple of portions of preserved seafood."

"Do you think I’m that spineless?" Xu Yanran huffed, turning on her heel and marching into the storeroom. She erged a mont later with an armful of food and scurried upstairs.

Just then, the commotion brought Luo Qingli downstairs. "Chen Xiao, what happened?"

"My two herbs were stolen," Chen Xiao said.

Luo Qingli’s eyes widened. "Then what do we do?"

Although she didn’t know what use the herbs were to Chen Xiao, she knew he valued them imnsely.

"It’s fine," Chen Xiao replied calmly. "I’ve already figured out who stole them. I’m going to go and settle the score."

With that, he lit a cigarette, got into his car, and drove away from the villa. He headed straight for the hotel where Zhu Baixi had been staying. After bribing the front desk with a small sum of money, he learned that Zhu Baixi was still a guest. He offered a quick thanks and stepped into the elevator.

「anwhile, the two Grandmasters were reporting back to Zhu Baixi.」

Zhu Baixi looked at the two potted plants with a cold sneer. "I never expected that, on top of the Dragon Heart Herb, he’d also collected a Seven Orifices Exquisite Fruit. What does he need so many rare herbs for? By the way, you didn’t expose your identities when you left, did you?"

If those two really exposed themselves, my plan would be ruined! After all, what I want is for Chen Xiao and Jiang Tianquan to tear each other apart. It would be a great boon to no matter which of them was eliminated.

"Don’t worry, those two were still unconscious when we left. We were spotted by a young girl, though, and had a brief scuffle with her."

"But we were disguised."

"She shouldn’t have been able to recognize us."

"Normally, that guy shouldn’t have any reason to suspect us, right?"

Zhu Baixi finally nodded. "Fine. You’re dismissed. Keep a low profile and don’t let him find any clues. Lay low for a few days."

"Yes, Ma’am." The two were about to turn and leave.

But as soon as they opened the door, they saw Chen Xiao looking at them with an unreadable smile. Their hair stood on end, and they stumbled back a few steps.

Chen Xiao walked in from the hallway, an amused look on his face. The two n felt a chill run down their spines and reflexively retreated further. The pressure emanating from Chen Xiao was too intense. They were still reeling from the mory of it.

"You two have so nerve," Chen Xiao sneered, "daring to steal from ."

SLAP! SLAP! With two vicious slaps, he sent the two Martial Arts Grandmasters flying like rag dolls. They collapsed on the floor, too terrified to even breathe.

"Kneel!"

Chen Xiao’s cold gaze swept over them, and they dropped to their knees as if they’d been electrocuted.

Useless! Zhu Baixi gnashed her teeth. I can’t believe they’re all show and no substance. To think they’d be this scared of him!

Her eyes, fixed on Chen Xiao, shimred with a complex and venomous hatred. Yesterday, his dominance gave an unprecedented thrill! But as thrilling as it was, he offended , leaving utterly humiliated!

Chen Xiao looked down on her from his full height. "Mada Jiang, for you to steal my things... I’m afraid that’s not very ethical, is it? Was the lesson I taught you before not enough?"

As Zhu Baixi recalled the previous day’s events, she was overco with sha, anger, and an inexplicable thrill. Her body grew tense, and she could feel it beginning to react rapidly, which only deepened her sha.

"Perhaps the two of us should have a talk. A deep, in-depth exchange," Chen Xiao said, sitting down on the sofa in a commanding posture and lighting a cigarette.

"What do you want!" Zhu Baixi’s entire body was coiled with tension.

"Nothing much. I just want to talk business," Chen Xiao sneered. He then cast a cold look at the two Mid Grandmaster Stage experts. "Get out. Run a hundred naked laps around the hotel. Co back in one hour. Mada Jiang and I have matters to discuss."

"This..." The two n exchanged glances, completely unsure of what to do.

Zhu Baixi felt like she was sitting on pins and needles, a sense of foreboding washing over her.

Chen Xiao chuckled mockingly. "What’s the matter? I’ve co all this way late at night. Surely Mada Jiang can show a little sincerity?"

A chill ran through Zhu Baixi. This man is a scoundrel with no limits; no one knows what he’ll do next. Last ti, he just knocked these two unlucky fools out and dealt with on the spot! If I really anger him now and he does sothing to in front of them, how will I ever show my face again? Everything I’ve built in the Jiang Family over the years will turn to ash!

She took a deep breath, feigning composure. "Since you’ve co with such sincerity, you are, of course, welco. You two, leave us. Do as he says. I’ll chat with him."

I’d like to see what tricks he has up his sleeve!

Her words were tough, but her heart was pounding in panic.

The two n could only get up helplessly.

"Rember what I said," Chen Xiao stated coldly. "Run naked around the building for an hour. If you’re a minute short, I can’t guarantee you’ll get to keep your worthless lives."

The two n gulped and fled as if escaping for their lives. The door swung shut behind them.

Zhu Baixi’s knuckles turned white as she clenched her fists, and her bitten red lip betrayed her nervousness. Chen Xiao’s aggressive gaze swept over her, both playful and icy, making her feel as if she were stripped bare before him.

"You... What exactly do you want?"

"You sent n to steal from , and you’re asking what I want?" Chen Xiao replied coldly.

"It’s a misunderstanding," Zhu Baixi said with a forced smile. "I was just afraid you wouldn’t know how to care for it. The Jiang Family has been cultivating this Dragon Heart Herb for over a decade. I’m familiar with its needs, so I thought I’d help you tend to it..."

"Is that so?" Chen Xiao sneered. "Then I suppose I should thank you."

Zhu Baixi laughed drily. "No thanks are necessary. Just take your things and go."

Chen Xiao stood up and lifted her chin, his smile cold and predatory. "I’m the type who always repays favors. I don’t like being indebted to anyone. How about... I give you a few hundred million as a thank-you gift?"

Her scalp prickled with fear. "You... What are you trying to do?"

Chen Xiao couldn’t be bothered to waste any more words. "Now, you have exactly one hour. After that, they’ll be back. You wouldn’t want them to see you in such a helpless and desperate state, would you?"
