Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

The ox and horse rolled their eyes.

"But I still won."

Liu Zheng said smugly.

"You didn't win on your own, so what are you so smug about?"

Even cattle and horses can't stand his pretentious attitude.

"Networking is also a part of strength. When I'm out and about, if I run into trouble, mentioning your name, sir, is much more effective than doing it myself."

He said with a grin.

"???"

Niu Ma's brows furrowed into a small mountain.

"I beg you, please do it yourself next time. I'm a big shot, and I want to live a few more years."

"Uh, bro, that's called being in your prime."

Liu Zheng couldn't help but correct him.

"So you think you know idioms? So you think you're cultured? Now do frog jumps while shouting 'graceful and charming' until you get back to the lounge!"

The ox and horse glared at him and said.

"Alas, loose lips sink ships."

He sighed, and his four tentacles crouched down, covering their heads.

"Graceful and charming, graceful and charming, graceful and charming."

Liu Zheng's voice echoed through the streets of the metropolis.

Fortunately, before we even reached the lounge, Si Xue called.

"Have Liu Zheng come to my office."

"Okay, boss."

The ox and horse replied respectfully.

"You're lucky, kid. Get lost."

After hanging up the phone, Niu Ma kicked Liu Zheng and said...

"hey-hey."

Taking advantage of the situation, Liu Zheng stood up and walked forward.

He took the elevator and arrived at Si Xue's office once again.

This time, the skin is a sea of ​​flowers, with lots of white clouds in the sky and bright but not scorching sunshine.

A gentle breeze blows, and countless flowers sway in the wind. Coupled with the beautiful woman lying in the sea of ​​flowers in light clothing, everything is so beautiful.

Good evening, boss.

Liu Zheng carefully avoided the flowers and walked up to Si Xue, then bowed respectfully, trying to avoid looking at any unsightly parts of her body.

"Hel me up."

Si Xue raised one hand, and you could almost see all the way down her loose sleeve.

"Yes."

He used his tentacles to wrap around Si Xue's wrist, helping her to stand up.

Si Xue reached out her hand, and countless flowers gathered together, forming a throne of a hundred flowers.

"Well done."

With Liu Zheng's help, she sat on the throne and then praised him.

"It's all thanks to the boss's good training."

Liu Zheng said modestly.

"Just thinking about how awful that silly bird's expression must be makes the remaining hundreds of years of hardship in prison seem less unbearable, hahaha!!!"

Si Xue let out a wild laugh that shook even the sun in the sky.

"I think my expression was uglier than that silly bird's."

He thought to himself.

“I know you’ve made a big sacrifice this time. Tell me, what do you want? As long as you don’t want to leave the restaurant or become the owner, I can try my best to meet your other requests.”

Si Xue seemed to have read his mind and said.

Even if you want a takeout order that lasts for a week.

"Can I make a phone call first, boss?"

Liu Zheng thought for a moment and asked.

Chapter 569 Phoenix: Why am I always the one who gets hurt?

"Go ahead and fight. Should I step aside?"

Si Xue said good-naturedly.

"That's no need."

Liu Zheng consciously walked to the side and made a phone call to the Nile River doctor.

"Doctor, how's the pyramid?"

he asked.

"Good news, there are four mummies inside."

"That's what the Nile doctor replied."

"What about the bad news?"

"The bad news is that only one of them is still conscious; the others have all turned into corpses."

"The Nile doctor sighed."

"On the bright side, at least one member of our clan is still alive."

Liu Zheng comforted him.

"He's not very lucid, so it will take a lot of effort to treat him."

The Nile doctor shook his head.

"Do you need me to get another piece of the deceased's brain?"

"No need, I can't trouble you with everything. Let me try to treat it first, and we'll talk about it if it doesn't work."

"That's what the Nile doctor said."

"Okay. You know about my boss's affairs, right?"

he asked suddenly.

"What's the matter?"

The Nile doctor was taken aback.

"Below it."

"How did you figure it out? That was a fake I went to great lengths to make."

The Nile doctor was even more surprised.

"The peacock put its horns and whip up for auction."

Liu Zheng replied.

"Damn that plague bird. It was injured for you that time, wasn't it? You have to take care of this. If you need any help, just let me know."

"That's what the Nile doctor said without a doubt."

"The illness needs to be treated, and the birds need to be hunted. You know my character, doctor."

he said calmly.

"Yes, I believe you. You called about this, right?"

"The Nile doctor asked."

"That's right. Do you have a way to cure this?"

"No. If it were curable, I would do everything I could to treat it. Peacocks are much more ruthless than your boss's boss. As far as I know, there are no other doctors in the metropolis who can treat it. We can only see if the hospital has any solutions."

"That's what the Nile doctor replied."

How much would it cost to treat this at the hospital?

"At least eight figures. And it's not just about money; hospitals are really ruthless towards people with no connections."

The Nile doctor hesitated for a moment before speaking.

Although cattle and horses are strong and fast, once they enter the hospital, they are like the heroes of Liangshan who have been recruited by the imperial court; no matter how many tricks you use, you can't use them.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you, doctor."

Liu Zheng hung up the phone.

"Have you thought about it?"

Si Xue tilted her head to look at him.

"I've made up my mind. I would like to ask you, boss, to heal all the injuries and diseases of the cattle and horses."

Liu Zheng nodded.

"You're so meticulous."

Si Xue said with a half-smile.

She knew Liu Zheng was preventing her from trying to renege on her promise, such as claiming the loss of the whip was due to illness rather than injury.

"There's no way around it, I'm afraid of being fooled again."

Liu Zheng said frankly.

"Injuries caused by peacocks are not easy to heal."

Si Xue emphasized.

“I understand. If there’s anything else you need me to do, I’ll do my best to do it.”

He said it resolutely.

"No, what I mean is, since the injury was caused by the peacock, I can give you a discount."

Si Xue shook her head.

"Oh? Oh! That's great. Hehehe."

Liu Zheng's serious expression instantly turned into a grin.

"Your face changes faster than the renovation of my office."

Si Xue commented.

"When superiors have certain preferences, subordinates will follow suit."

He said seriously.

"Ha. I'll give you another day off and this too, then we're even."

Si Xue stretched out her hand, and on her fair palm lay two pills, one red and one blue.

"what?"

Liu Zheng was stunned, countless thoughts racing through his mind.

"Don't overthink it. I'm not so idle as to pretend to be a seller to fish for money. This was a reward I received from the city hall when I was still a writer."

Si Xue could tell what he was thinking.
