Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable Chapter 977 - 888: Defending Our Rivers and Mountains 18

Kou Shuangshuang had been pondering for a long ti, thinking about what she would do if Du Haokun really refused to divorce her. In the end, Kou Shuangshuang could only co to one conclusion: if that day ever ca, she would wait until she mastered Western dicine and then make her escape.

In such a vast country, with war erupting everywhere, no place was truly safe. Wherever she went would be the sa, so there was no need to dwell on it.

Having figured it out, Kou Shuangshuang felt relieved. She stopped resisting Du Haokun and happily got out of the car to walk with him. Du Haokun intended to walk side by side with her, but Kou Shuangshuang subtly avoided getting too close to him.

Du Haokun approached twice, only to be evaded by Kou Shuangshuang, intentionally or not. He then stopped trying and silently walked a step ahead or behind her.

After a while, Du Haokun suddenly said, "Kou Shuangshuang, I’m not against you doing charity clinics. You can work half a day and rest half a day. At this busy pace, you don’t even have ti to eat. As soone studying dicine, you should know that such long hours are not good for your health."

Kou Shuangshuang was montarily stunned, a bit startled to discover that Du Haokun was actually explaining things to her. Moreover, his words seed to carry a hint of grievance, as if he felt misunderstood.

This realization left Kou Shuangshuang flustered. This was definitely not a good developnt. She now deeply regretted previously making Liu Feifei Du Haokun’s concubine to handle her, resulting in revealing so of her true nature to Du Haokun.

Added to her unexpected skills in dicine which astonished Du Haokun, such abilities were certainly not expected of a traditional woman. If Du Haokun developed so curiosity or vague feelings because of this, it wouldn’t be surprising, but it was not what Kou Shuangshuang wanted.

Covering her mouth, Kou Shuangshuang didn’t respond to Du Haokun’s words, but imdiately thought of finding an opportunity to divert Du Haokun’s attention away from herself. Whoever stares at soone for too long is bound to cause trouble sooner or later; she couldn’t let Du Haokun keep focusing on her.

So when three days later, Du Haokun found himself with two additional concubines, he just wanted to find Kou Shuangshuang and strangle this troublemaker woman!

The two concubines Kou Shuangshuang arranged for Du Haokun were not easy to deal with: Fang Hong, daughter of the vice-chairman of the H City Chamber of Comrce, and Fan i, diplomat’s daughter with a Westerner godfather. These were won who once married could not be ignored.

To say, Fang Hong and Fan i were old acquaintances of Kou Shuangshuang. In her previous life, her social avenues remained unopened due to the combined efforts of Fang Hong and Fan i squeezing her out.

Both Fang Hong and Fan i secretly admired Du Haokun. Though traditionally raised won, they didn’t truly learn virtues, instead being jealous and combative. Without Kou Shuangshuang, they were fervently competing against each other. Once Kou Shuangshuang ca along, they tead up to fight against her.

In her previous life, Kou Shuangshuang had been living in utter frustration, constantly sched against by Liu Feifei the Sixteenth Concubine internally, and rightfully challenged by Fang Hong and Fan i externally. All the hatred from Du Haokun’s admirers bore down on Kou Shuangshuang, leaving her exhausted in defense.

anwhile, truly in mutual love with Du Haokun, Tian Xueli lived freely, causing trouble with Du Haokun cleaning up her sses, while Kou Shuangshuang, the wife, served as a lightning rod, only needing to enjoy her romance with Du Haokun.

Now, Kou Shuangshuang intended to bring all those who liked Du Haokun around him. When they all fulfilled their wishes of becoming Du Haokun’s won, they might either fight among themselves or collaborate against Tian Xueli when she appeared or collectively entangle the heartless Du Haokun.

No matter what, Kou Shuangshuang neither stayed with Du Haokun nor returned to the Du Mansion every day, while Fang Hong, Fan i, and Liu Feifei were locked inside the traditionally strict Du Mansion, which never allowed concubines to socialize outside. This way, Kou Shuangshuang gained her freedom, leaving Du Haokun to deal with the headache alone.

Due to Fang Hong and Fan i’s special status, it was impossible for Du Haokun to ignore these two won. They weren’t like Liu Feifei, without any backing, whom Fang ijuan can manipulate at will.

Kou Shuangshuang managed to make Fang Hong and Fan i Du Haokun’s concubines, not only because of their deep affection and desire to marry him but also by persuading their families with the potential alliance with Du Zongze as pretext. Only then did the Fang and Fen Families agree to marry their daughters to Du Haokun as concubines.

As for the Du Family, having two more formidable allies was naturally beneficial. Because of Kou Shuangshuang’s generosity in bringing such useful and well-connected concubines into their family, Fang ijuan and Du Zongze complied with all her requests.

Through the concubine-taking incident, Kou Shuangshuang gained multiple benefits by grouping adversaries to let them fight each other. She was relieved, with Fang Hong and Fan i tying Du Haokun down, leaving him no ti to focus on her, while setting a trap for the forthcoming Tian Xueli and swiftly arranging her enrollnt in the Western dicine Academy.

Eventually, Du Haokun indeed beca entangled with Fang Hong and Fan i, overwheld by their antics. His initial tactic of giving Kou Shuangshuang the cold shoulder didn’t work on them. Fang Hong and Fan i wouldn’t obediently endure being ignored.

When the antics of Fang Hong and Fan i turned the entire Du Mansion upside down, Du Haokun was unable to avoid expending efforts to appease them. Of course, he wouldn’t really sell himself out, instead cleverly navigating the situation.

Today he’d show Fang Hong a pleasant face, tomorrow have a al with Fan i, and then let Fang Hong and Fan i rip each other apart, battling fiercely with one another. As for Liu Feifei, she remained locked in Fang ijuan’s little dark room, unable to participate for the ti being.

Compared to the frazzled Du Haokun, Kou Shuangshuang’s life was excellent. Father Allen had recomnded her for further studies at the Western dical University, and Kou Shuangshuang was perfectly on course to pursue her dream of mastering Western surgical techniques.

Like traditional Chinese dicine, Western dicine was equally vast and detailed. Despite her astonishingly fast progress, it still took Kou Shuangshuang three full years to feel barely competent in surgery and able to handle unexpected events on the battlefield.

During these two years, aside from the previous anomaly, Du Haokun’s attitude toward Kou Shuangshuang reverted to indifference, even harboring so grievances. This was because Kou Shuangshuang had brought Fang Hong and Fan i into his life, causing him great inconvenience as he constantly sought ways to deal with these two won.
