Chapter 55: Chapter 55: Unpleasant Things of the Past_1
To accelerate his cultivation, not only did Qin Feng need more money, but he also needed to treat more complex and challenging illnesses.
Therefore, he had to get closer to people like Yu Keqing and develop good relationships.
Only then would he have more connections to utilize.
The most important thing was that the ancestor who passed down the Immortal Doctor heritage to Qin Feng was an old rascal who also happened to be a flirtatious one at that.
Before he achieved immortality, he had taken a total of nine wives and concubines.
As for fleeting romantic encounters, those were too numerous to count.
He dedicated his life to healing the world, alleviating the suffering of the Mortal Realm.
Under the moon and among the blossoms, he enjoyed the gentle company of beauties.
Food and drink may pass through the body, but the essence of medical practice remains in the heart.
Uninhibited, loving, leaving a trail of affection everywhere.
Having inherited the mantle of his forefather, Qin Feng’s personality was naturally influenced by him, gradually morphing into his likeness.
If it were any other man behaving like this, Yu Keqing would have been disgusted, extremely averse.
But, perhaps it was because Qin Feng had saved Duoduo.
Or maybe she was considering asking Qin Feng for help when Huanmei Group was developing new products?
So when Qin Feng acted cheeky with her, Yu Keqing was not put off.
On the contrary, she even found this little rascal rather amusing.
Yu Keqing gave Qin Feng a white look and playfully scolded, "Shameless!"
"I won’t disturb Sister Yu today. Take good care of Duoduo! Once Duoduo is discharged, you can contact me then. I’ll come over to your place, and we can have a long, detailed chat."
Qin Feng left his mobile number with Yu Keqing, then left with Liu Haitao.
Leaving the hospital.
Liu Haitao looked at Qin Feng and asked with a chuckle, "Assistant Qin, if Mr. Xue finds out that you’ve been flirting with Mrs. Yu, isn’t she going to kill you?"
"She could kill me eight times in a day; one more won’t make a difference."
"Badass!"
...
The next day.
After a series of tests, all indicators of Duoduo’s health had returned to normal.
After being discharged and considering that there might be something unclean in their house, Yu Keqing didn’t take Duoduo home but instead checked into a hotel with a temporary room for her, having the nanny stay with her there.
Having arranged for Duoduo, Yu Keqing dialed Qin Feng’s number.
The call rang for quite some time before being answered.
The voice that came through sounded languid, as if he had just woken up.
"Who’s this?"
"Yu Keqing."
"Oh, it’s Sister Yu. What’s up?"
"Didn’t you say there was something unclean in my house? I want to invite you over to have a look. Where are you? Should I come pick you up?"
"Rose Manor, number 7."
Because Xue Xiaochan had left him a room and given him the keys.
So, he had stayed over at the Rose Manor last night.
Qin Feng only went back to his place on Ciyun Street 36 two or three times a week.
Wang Guixiang had stopped scavenging and was now raising a few chickens in the yard, spending her time idly gossiping with the neighboring old ladies.
Qin Feng couldn’t really socialize with the old grannies, but seeing his mother carefree, he didn’t have to worry about her.
Thus, it was natural that he spent more time at Xue Xiaochan’s place.
Mom was great, but after all, she was an old lady who nattered on; how could that compare to the sweetness of a wife?
Half an hour later.
A large G-Class pulled up in front of Rose Manor, number 7.
Beep!
Beep beep!
Hearing the shrill honking, Qin Feng knew it must be Yu Keqing who had arrived.
So, dressed in just boxer shorts and flip-flops, he went out.
Seeing the G-Class, Qin Feng was somewhat surprised.
"Is this what you usually drive?"
"Yeah!"
"A delicate woman driving such a beast of a car, making herself look like a tomboy."
"Can’t you speak properly? Sister is not a delicate woman, nor is she a tomboy!"
Qin Feng pulled open the backseat door, ready to get in.
"What are you doing? You want me to be your driver? Come to the front!"
"If I sit in the passenger seat, will your husband mind?"
"I don’t have a husband."
"What about Duoduo’s dad?"
"Dead!"
From the resentment in Yu Keqing’s tone, it was clear that the man wasn’t actually dead, but he must have seriously offended this woman.
After fastening the seat belt, the SUV started up.
Curious, Qin Feng asked, "You got divorced?"
"What’s it to you?"
"No need to be so fierce! I didn’t do anything to you!"
Feeling snubbed, Qin Feng stopped paying attention to the woman. He took out his phone and started playing ’bahh bahh’.
"No playing games!"
"Why not?"
"It distracts me while driving."
"I’m playing my game, you’re driving; how could that possibly distract you?"
"Do you live alone?"
"Yeah!"
"Got a girlfriend?"
"No."
Qin Feng wasn’t lying; although he lived in Xue Xiaochan’s villa, he was alone every night.
As for a girlfriend, he definitely didn’t have one! His marriage to Xue Xiaochan was a sham, so they weren’t considered boyfriend and girlfriend.
Moreover, according to the unfair agreement he’d signed, Xue Xiaochan could kick him out at any time.
Yu Keqing didn’t ask any further.
She didn’t know why, but upon hearing Qin Feng say he lived alone with no girlfriend, an inexplicable joy sprouted deep within her.
The SUV drove into Wangshan County, the top villa area in Zhonghai, situated at the foot of Baidi Mountain, consisting entirely of standalone villas.
Yu Keqing’s villa, number 18, had the best location, directly facing the golden peaks of Baidi Mountain.
Qin Feng looked up and saw the majestic Baidi Palace, which loomed like a drawn sword above the villa.
The Huanmei Group’s secretive owner was the Qin Family.
Baidi Palace belonged to the Qin Family as well.
And naturally, Yu Keqing, the beautiful CEO, was also under the Qin Family’s wing.
"Did you buy this villa yourself?" Qin Feng inquired.
"Wangshan County was developed by the Sanrenhe Group, which is a property of the Qin Family from the Capital. The Huanmei Group is also invested in by the Qin Family. Three years ago, when Duoduo was born and the Huanmei Group was getting on track, I decided to settle down in Zhonghai, so I bought this place here."
"Duoduo’s last name wouldn’t happen to be Qin, would it?"
Qin Feng had just casually asked, but Yu Keqing exploded.
"What’s it to you? Can’t you mind your own business? Why must you be so nosy for a grown man? Duoduo takes my surname, Yu!"
Qin Feng didn’t press further.
Given Yu Keqing’s reaction, he was now certain that Duoduo’s father definitely bore the surname Qin.
Those with the surname Qin really are no good, huh! How could they have the heart to hurt such a pretty and lovely woman?
Seeing Qin Feng standing there stunned, Yu Keqing realized she had lost her composure.
She knew that Qin Feng had no ill intentions and was only making conversation.
It was her own sensitivity to the matter that was to blame.
"Sorry! It wasn’t personal. But please refrain from mentioning those unpleasant things around me in the future."
"What future? We might just be strangers after today. I’m just a doctor who cured your daughter and got rid of the filth in your home. After this, we’ll have nothing to do with each other. And about what I said yesterday, suggesting Huanmei Group should terminate the endorsement deal with Ouyang Bingbing – that was just a joke. Don’t take it seriously!"
In saying this, Qin Feng was playing hard to get.
