Chapter 288: Chapter 288: Opposites Attract, Don’t You Get It?
"Since you’re in Shanhe Province, how about you secretly help me look after two women?"
Jiang Xinghai thought of Lin Liping and Feng Lulu. They were in a different province, and even with the Feng Family’s help, they were probably short on friends.
"You mean Lin Liping and Feng Lulu, right?" Chuchu seemed to have already researched the people around Jiang Xinghai.
"That’s right. Lin Liping is preparing to open a Jishan Hall pharmacy on the commercial street next to Shanhe University, and Lulu is a student at Shanhe University. You just need to look out for them a bit on the sly," Jiang Xinghai said with a smile.
"I’m afraid it won’t be convenient for me to look after them." Chuchu shook her head apologetically.
"Why not? Is someone monitoring you?" Jiang Xinghai figured that was the only possible reason.
Chuchu replied, "That’s right. There are only three of us in the Shanhe Province Black Cloak organization, including me. We’re usually not tasked with anything, so we have plenty of free time, but it’s still uncertain if I’m even allowed to act alone."
"If that’s the case, then you need to focus on protecting yourself," was the only advice Jiang Xinghai could offer.
"Mhm, I will."
Chuchu nodded lightly. "There’s one more thing. Regarding Ye Zhiqiu and Mi Hong, they don’t need to hide anymore."
"Okay, I’ll let them know later."
Images of Mi Hong and Ye Zhiqiu flashed through Jiang Xinghai’s mind. "Right, if you need anything in Shanhe Province, you can call me. And I mean *anything*."
"I know." Chuchu hung up hurriedly.
How could she not understand his implication?
They had only known each other for three days, but in that short time, they had been intimate twice.
For Jiang Xinghai, he might forget about it soon enough.
But for Chuchu, the memory was seared into her mind.
The first time, on the grass by the lake.
The second time, in the private room of a club!
「At the same time.」
On the highway from Jizhou to Central State.
A Land Rover sped down the road.
Jiang Xinghai was calling Mi Hong’s phone.
"Brother-in-law, is this Chuchu someone I’ve met before?"
Shen Lingyin sat in the passenger seat, looking like a well-behaved girl, but her gaze was fierce.
"She’s just a friend. Don’t overthink it."
The call connected. Jiang Xinghai waved a dismissive hand at Shen Lingyin before speaking into the phone. "Sister Hong, you and Miss Ye can move back home. Chuchu has taken care of things."
"Solved in two days, that’s great." When Mi Hong answered, she didn’t show any of their usual flirtatious ambiguity, since Ye Zhiqiu was right beside her.
"Alright then, I’m still driving." Jiang Xinghai was about to hang up.
"Zhiqiu wants to know when you’re going to continue our treatments." Mi Hong glanced at Ye Zhiqiu, who shot her an annoyed look.
Jiang Xinghai slapped his forehead. "Oh, the earliest would be tonight, I guess."
"Alright, we’ll wait for you tonight." Mi Hong hung up.
Mi Hong had breast nodules. She had completed one course of treatment and had two more to go.
Ye Zhiqiu had a chronic case of "palace cold," with only one final course of treatment left.
Jiang Xinghai felt a headache coming on. He had only said "the earliest would be tonight," he hadn’t actually confirmed he was free tonight.
After all, Shen Lingxue was waiting for him to "leave his seed" tonight.
And he had already decided to satisfy Shen Lingxue’s request—to leave his seed.
So, he didn’t want to get home too late.
Besides, he wanted to properly unleash the Dragon Locking Secret Technique tonight and spend a wonderful evening with Shen Lingxue. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
"You really have a lot of friends, don’t you? Mostly female ones. Don’t you get tired?" Shen Lingyin pouted.
"Opposites attract, don’t you get it?" Jiang Xinghai grinned.
"Hmph." Shen Lingyin shook her head and smiled.
Still, she had to admit that Jiang Xinghai was an exceptional man.
His medical skills were divine, and his martial arts were heaven-defying. A man so accomplished in both Medical Martial Arts would be a top-tier existence anywhere.
"I noticed you’ve been staring at me. You don’t have any ideas about me, do you?" Jiang Xinghai said, tilting his head with a slight smile.
Shen Lingyin’s usual playful demeanor vanished, and she said seriously, "Jiang Xinghai, you’d better behave yourself in front of your little sister-in-law from now on."
「Nine in the morning.」
Jiang Xinghai arrived at Central State University with Shen Lingyin.
After submitting the paperwork, they drove onto campus.
Shen Lingyin had enrolled in the Financial Management department.
Guided by upperclassmen holding signs, the two of them parked the car and continued on foot, carrying their suitcases.
"Mr. Jiang, it really is you!"
Suddenly, a woman with shoulder-length hair, wearing a short, pink and white cheongsam, walked over with a look of pleasant surprise.
"Miss Mu, don’t tell me you’re a student here too?" Jiang Xinghai recognized her. It was Mu Huang’s granddaughter, Mu Jianni.
"I’m a freshman!" Mu Jianni said excitedly, grabbing Jiang Xinghai’s arm and linking hers through it.
Her father, Mu Qikun, had been cured of his semi-paralysis by none other than Jiang Xinghai. He was the Mu Family’s great benefactor!
"Hey, who are you? Let go of him."
Shen Lingyin shot a hostile glare at Mu Jianni, then glared at Jiang Xinghai.
"And who are you? You think I’ll let go just because you told me to? I won’t." Mu Jianni glared back at Shen Lingyin. Not only did she not let go, but she also leaned her head happily against Jiang Xinghai’s shoulder.
