Fury Immortal Doctor

Chapter 1509 - 1512: The More You Care, the Harsher You Become

Just as Shen Qiang was smiling broadly while agreeing to Ke Bizhu's request, a few hundred meters away on the street, Wenren Meiqiao was so furious she was grinding her teeth. She parked the car by the roadside. In the back seat, her female assistant, seeing her looking at the rearview mirror as if checking if Shen Qiang was chasing after her, couldn't help but chuckle."General, if you're worried about Shen Qiang, you could go back and pick him up. It's not easy to catch a cab around there at this time."

Hearing this, Wenren Meiqiao was displeased, raising an eyebrow, "Ha? Why should I go back to pick him up? Oh, he has some nerve! Getting surrounded by those demons, I helped him out and he doesn't thank me, instead he's smiling like he's eaten something sweet."

The female assistant's eyes curved with laughter, "But staying here waiting isn't a solution either?"

Wenren Meiqiao huffed, "I don't care. If he catches up, I'll drive him back. If he doesn't, hmph, I couldn't care less."

Hearing this, the assistant, eyes smiling, raised an eyebrow, "General, Shen Qiang is really quite something, smart, handsome, and especially a great cook. Whoever ends up with him will eat well every day."

Wenren Meiqiao's face inexplicably turned red, feeling something was off with this statement, she replied, "Tch, what's so special? Plenty of men can cook."

"But how many cook as well as he does?"

The female assistant's comment made Wenren Meiqiao sigh inexplicably. She furrowed her brows, observing Shen Qiang a few hundred meters away with her divine sense, saying, "I don't even know why, but I got so angry just now, I couldn't stand it for even a minute."

The female assistant burst into laughter, "Everyone has this quirk: you're rational and courteous to strangers, often appearing generous and graceful, but when it comes to people you care about, you can't stand things and become more demanding. It's what people commonly say, detached from oneself you remain calm, but when involved, you become chaotic."

Wenren Meiqiao furrowed her brows, leaned back in the seat, and furrowed her brows again, "This Shen Qiang is so infuriating. I help him out of kindness, and he doesn't appreciate it, even calls me a liar."

The assistant laughed, "General, maybe you do like him a bit, huh?"

"Impossible!" Wenren Meiqiao denied instantly, as if the seat burned her rear, "There are plenty of polite handsome guys out there, am I crazy to like that cunning, vicious guy?"

The female assistant, eyes curved with laughter, said, "You've parked here because you're still within your divine sense range, you're still worried about him. Otherwise, with your personality, we'd be back at the office by now."

Wenren Meiqiao coldly said, "Have you taken a bribe from him?"

Hearing this, the female assistant laughed and said, "General, there are some things that outsiders see more clearly. You evidently like him a lot, not just me, Yu Kang also noticed, otherwise, why would he be competing with Shen Qiang?"

"Impossible, you're making things up." Wenren Meiqiao still refused to admit it.

The assistant laughed, "Think it over carefully. Don't say I didn't remind you, Shen Qiang is financially stable, capable, handsome and smart. If you act on impulse and miss out, you'll regret it."

Hearing this, Wenren Meiqiao was displeased, "Ha, a three-legged toad is hard to find, two-legged men are everywhere. If he's so great, why don't you go for him?"

Upon hearing this, the assistant instantly became displeased too, rolling her eyes coldly, "If I hadn't already taken wedding photos and set the date for May Day, I really would want to give it a try."

Wenren Meiqiao was stunned, "Do you really think Shen Qiang is better than your fiancé? Your fiancé is..."

Hearing this, the assistant burst into laughter and then said seriously, "My fiancé is great, but he only knows work, then more work, he's serious all the time, feels like having a home tutor around all day."

"Shen Qiang is so interesting, a bit naughty. That time in the restaurant, he even mimicked Yu Kang's frying moves on purpose, scared Yu Kang's face white, hah, it was hilarious. What's more amusing, Yu Kang, so full of himself in the kitchen, didn't even recognize Shen Qiang."

Wenren Meiqiao, hearing this, also laughed, her coquettish eyes twinkling, "Yeah, at that moment I was startled too, his little unconscious movements were spot on, like a replica. But later, his moves were really stylish, more imposing and manly than Yu Kang, with a roguish charm."

"Exactly, and General, you see how those female customers surrounded Shen Qiang tightly, you should know how popular he is. Plus, I heard people say Qian Shanxue seems to have something with him too."

The female assistant's words made Wenren Meiqiao, who was smiling, immediately unhappy, "Haha, I knew it, Shen Qiang that bastard, definitely wouldn't help Qian Shanxue for no reason."

Hearing this, the female assistant laughed, "General, now you've both been promoted to Major General. There might not be chances to compete again, but with Shen Qiang…"

"No way!" Wenren Meiqiao, intelligent and alert, blushed instantly, "I'm not comparing with her on this, let's go."

With that, Wenren Meiqiao drove, neither too close nor too far, to follow the taxi Shen Qiang was in, escorting him all the way.

Meanwhile, back in the previous restaurant.

Many beautiful diners were excitedly discussing with bright eyes, seemingly reluctant to leave.

"That Shen Qiang was so handsome, owner of Huaxia's number one gourmet restaurant, young and wealthy, outstandingly talented. Made my heart pound, but it's a pity he didn't seem interested in me. I suggested we chat about life tonight, and he said yes, but later, how ridiculous is that?"

A woman in a red long dress, quite well-figured among ordinary people, fiddled with her phone helplessly, "Stop dreaming, such a desirable catch, we sure can't have him. I added him on WeChat, but he hasn't accepted it yet."

"Me too. His online name is so cool, 'I Laugh To The Sky With Sword In Hand', feels very domineering."

"Yeah, a spirited young man, rich, handsome, that arrogant username really suits him. Oh, and was the girl who left with him his girlfriend? She's so pretty, tall, with a great aura. With such a girl around, it's normal that he's not interested in us."

Yu Kang, who had been sitting with eyes closed in deep thought, hearing this, his gaze instantly turned cold, and he felt an inexplicable irritation. For him, helping out at Datong River was like an internship. He had no reservations about it, but thinking of Wenren Meiqiao, whom he dreamed of holding hands with, showing an expression of "this is my man" as she left with Shen Qiang, it felt like his heart was being twisted painfully.
