Landlady who likes to hoard land

Jin Yao was happy.

"Okay, I'll leave this to you. Go and get on with it!"

"Yes, Mr. Jin!"

Secretary Zhao quickly went to prepare the gift and deliver it.

Soon after Wang Chengyu and Xie Lao came out of the conference room, Qi Lao also came out of the conference room.

"Chengyu, don't stoop to their level. It's their loss if they don't let us have a consultation, not ours."

Old Xie was worried that Wang Chengyu was too shy to accept the situation, so he tried to comfort him.

"Dr. Xie, I'm not angry. I just find the consultation quite boring!" Wang Chengyu laughed. She was also impatient to listen to the doctor use those professional terms, and she didn't plan to become a doctor anyway.

"It's good that you're not angry!"

"Old Xie, wait for me!"

I'll take you to the guesthouse.

Old Qi caught up with the two.

"Old Xie, don't be angry. Those people are ignorant and don't know what's good for them. Let's not bother with them."

Despite his tireless steps, Mr. Xie said, “I’m not angry. At my age, what haven’t I seen? This is nothing. I’m really tired after sitting in the car all day. Let me get some sleep first!”

Old Qi was relieved to see that Old Xie was not really angry.

The three of them took a shuttle bus to the hospital's guesthouse next to the hospital.

Although it's called a guesthouse, in Wang Chengyu's eyes, the facilities and equipment inside are almost comparable to a five-star hotel.

"Old Xie, you live in 303, Cheng Yu lives in 316 across from you, and the two people who came with you live in 209 downstairs from you."

After receiving the room key at the front desk, Mr. Qi led the two of them to the third floor via elevator.

Wang Chengyu could tell the floor layout at a glance: the side where Xie Lao lived had fewer rooms, while the side where she lived had more rooms.

Sure enough, the room 303 that Mr. Qi opened was a small suite, the kind with one bedroom and one living room, and a small kitchen.

"Elder Xie, Elder Qi, you two chat, I'll go back and rest now."

"Hey, Chengyu, go and rest. If you're not tired, you can go for a walk around the area. There are public electric scooters next to the hospital. I'll call you if anything comes up."

Elder Qi quickly agreed!

"Thank you, Elder Qi, I understand!"

After getting the room key from Qi Lao, Wang Chengyu exited room 303. Room 316 was diagonally opposite. He opened the door and inserted the room key.

A single room isn't bad. She guessed that Mo Bai and the driver were probably staying in a standard room.

Call Mo Bai and ask him to bring the luggage over.

Wang Chengyu sat on the sofa by the window, reflecting on what had just happened.

She felt something was strange. She and Xie had come all the way here specifically to consult on and treat the patient. How could they possibly stop participating in the consultation just because of a few words from the patient?

Old Xie's demeanor was far more magnanimous than she had imagined. She suspected that the patient they were going to treat might not be the person they were consulting with, but someone else entirely.

Otherwise, Mr. Xie wouldn't have left just because of a few questions from the other party.

Mo Bai quickly brought up her luggage and, after some questioning, learned that they were indeed staying in a standard double room.

"Mo Bai, have you eaten?"

"We've already eaten. There's a buffet on the second floor, but we've finished. Do you want to go eat now? I'll take you there."

Mo Bai must have just taken a shower; his hair was slightly damp and carried a faint moisture.

"I'm not going. I'll wander around the area and try some local snacks."

"I'll accompany you!"

"No need, I'll be right back after a short drive. You should go back and rest; it must be tiring for you to take turns driving."

"I'm more than just a driver!"

Wang Chengyu understood what Mo Bai hadn't finished saying; he was still a bodyguard.

She's really amazing, okay? She's got plenty of spiritual energy right now, she could easily take on ten people at once.

“I’m awesome!”

Wang Chengyu didn't want anyone following her. She could wander aimlessly while shopping by herself, but she felt uncomfortable with people around her.

It's also uncomfortable to have one's private preferences known to others.

She was doing just fine before Mo Bai came! If she hadn't told him she was going out, how would he have known to protect her?

Mo Bai pursed his lips, refusing to budge an inch. "Protecting you is my job. There are many potential dangers here!"

"Fine, I'm not going out! You go back and rest! I'm sleepy, I want to go to bed!"

Wang Chengyu slammed the door shut. This person is so stubborn! Fine, she won't go out!

Mo Bai stared at the closed door, equally speechless. Cheng Yu had never been exposed to the other side of society. At most, she was only involved in family matters and neighborhood disputes. It was normal that she didn't know the dark side of society.

He knew this, so he couldn't let her be willful.

Wang Chengyu retrieved his luggage, found a change of clothes, and took a quick shower.

Simple skincare routine, blow-drying my hair. Packing my small, stylish bag.

She guessed that Mo Bai had already gone back to his room to rest.

Hehe, she chuckled twice, quietly opened the door, and peeked out like a thief to check the surroundings.

Turning her head, she was met with Mo Bai's resolute chin. Her gaze gradually moved upward, and Mo Bai appeared in her line of sight with a knowing look on his face.

"Why haven't you gone back yet?"

Caught red-handed, Wang Chengyu felt extremely guilty and stammered nervously, asking, "I'm so embarrassed to be caught trying to sneak away."

"How would I know you were going out now if I went back?"

"If I don't go out, you can't just stay at my door forever!"

Mo Bai didn't speak, he just looked at her. It was clear he was telling her, "I will!"

Wang Chengyu was startled. To let someone linger at her door like that—she was too cruel!

"Therefore, Chengyu, please do not go out alone."

Mo Bai smiled faintly, his arms crossed, as he looked at the obvious guilty conscience in the clear black eyes in front of him.

He knew that this woman was the most soft-hearted and would respond better to gentle persuasion than force.

Take advantage!

"Then, let's go together!"

Everything's packed; there's no way I won't go out.

If he wants to go, then let him go!

There is a subway station entrance not far from the guesthouse, and there are plenty of public bicycles and electric bikes nearby.

H City is beautiful at night. The city lights come together like a grand light show. There are not many cars on the road, and the whole road is very quiet, which contrasts sharply with the fashionable lights.

There was a strange and wonderful sense of security.

Wang Chengyu rode very slowly; she simply wanted to experience the beauty of the city.

I wonder how far this place is from the Huangpu River, and whether the evening breeze from the Huangpu River can reach here!

This city has become more charming because of the accumulation of time and history. The evening breeze lifts her hair, and the air seems to carry the aroma of duck blood vermicelli soup.

It smells so good, I really want to eat it!

Follow the scent all the way.

Sure enough, a black wooden sign with gold lettering stood there, and wisps of mist emanated from the small storefront.

This is it! After finding a parking spot and parking the car, Wang Chengyu couldn't wait to go inside the store.

"Mo Bai, would you like a bowl?"

Making someone work overtime so late at night, treat them to a bowl of vermicelli soup to make up for it.

The aroma in the store grew stronger, and Wang Chengyu's mouth watered.

"Give me a bowl!"

"Boss, two bowls of duck vermicelli soup with duck offal, Mo Bai, what do you want to add?"

"Just like you!"

"Boss, two bowls of duck vermicelli soup, with duck offal, and two bottles of water!"

"Okay, fifty-six yuan, paid!"

Mo Bai had already found a seat by the window, but because it was past lunchtime, the restaurant was only about half full.
