Physician’s Odyssey Chapter 880

Chapter 879 - Friends or Enemies

Lunar Camp Street was an old street in Beijing. At least 60% of authentic Beijing’ers came from this place. It was just like many large cities. Beijing wasn’t big by itself. The city had just expanded over the past few decades, so the Lunar Camp Street could be considered the center of old Beijing.

At around 7:00 a.m., the streets started to be filled with people with snacks and various other businesses along the street.

There was a shop owner in an apron with the surname Chen. He was a little plump and had a loud voice. Standing by the door and looking at the endless stream of pedestrians, a polite smile rose on his lips. Taking the fried liver and glutinous rice cake from an employee, he placed it on the table of a young man in a suit and replied respectfully, “Mr. Wang, here’s your breakfast!”

“You’re too polite. There’s too many here, and I can’t finish them by myself.” Wang Xuan smiled.

“It’s all thanks to you. Otherwise, my shop will be closed by now.” Boss Chen smiled.

Waving his hand, Wang Xuan replied, “It’s just a trifle matter. I’ve eaten breakfast at your shop for more than a decade. Won’t I go hungry in the future if your shop is closed?”

“There are always people who want to make things difficult for me. You’re my fortune star.” The shop owner smiled politely.

The shop owner left after he finished his courtesy. He knew how to weigh his proportions and not affect Wang Xuan having his meal.

Wang Xuan took out his phone and started scrolling through it while having breakfast. He did not place Boss Chen’s gratitude in his heart. The Boss Chen has been doing a good job, but he’s also overbearing. Not long ago, the Boss Chen offended a breakfast shop next door. He brought a group of people over to make trouble. As a result, they wrote a report against him.

Which authentic Beijing’ers have no access to connections? In the end, the commercial, environmental, and enforcement came knocking on Boss Chen’s shop. In the end, Boss Chen almost went as far as begging them to let him off.

Wang Xuan had a habit of having breakfast here. When he saw that the business wasn’t good one day, he casually asked about it. As a result, Wang Xuan gave a few calls to his acquaintances, and the owner next door came over to greet the Boss Chen. As for those departments, they never came to look for Boss Chen’s trouble ever again.

It was only after that incident did Boss Chen realized that Wang Xuan wasn’t an ordinary person.

When Wang Xuan scrolled through the hottest topic today, he saw the article about Qu Wanwan’s sham marriage. He frowned and shook his head. Nothing was surprising in this world. People were only cursing at men for fooling around, but no one questioned the fact that women weren’t pushovers either. Whether it was Pan Jinlian in the novel of Golden Lotus or Qu Wanwan, they were both first-class venomous wives.

Just when he was thinking about it, the plates on the table suddenly jolted. Someone had slammed on his table. When Wang Xuan raised his head, he saw his cousin, Wang Jiajia. Feeling perplexed, he asked, “How do you know that I’m here?”

“Do you think that I don’t know you well? You like to have your breakfast in such a poor place. You returned late last night and ran here early in the morning.” Wang Jiajia said furiously. She then knitted her brows and looked around, “This shop is too filthy. It’s not hygiene at all. Only someone like you is having your breakfast so happily.”

“What’s the matter? Who made you angry for you to come looking for me early in the morning?” Wang Xuan smiled. He then ate a spoonful of the fried liver before showing a satisfied expression.

Since young, Wang Jiajia had a good relationship with Wang Xuan. No matter what happened, Wang Xuan would always stand before her, shielding her from everything.

“Can you help me take revenge if I tell you?” Wang Jiajia questioned.

“Well, that depends on the person.” Wang Xuan smiled. “Why don’t you tell me more about the situation? I’ll help you, depending on my mood.”

“It’s Ni Jingqiu and Su Tao.” Wang Jiajia replied after brewing her words briefly.

Wang Jiajia then told Wang Xuan what happened to her in the hotel, exaggerating in the process. Wang Xuan also inquired about some details. When he finally got the whole story, he smiled bitterly, “That’s because you’re trying to find trouble with him, which he taught you a lesson after finding out about it. In the end, you deserve it.”

Hearing Wang Xuan’s words, Wang Jiajia’s eyes turned red. She stood up and wanted to leave, dumping her words, “I must be stupid to find you for help.”

Grabbing onto Wang Jiajia’s wrist, Wang Xuan made her sit back down and smiled sourly, “Why are you always in such a hurry. I’m not done yet!”

“So, you promised me?” Wang Jiajia asked, with her face blushed.

Nodding his head, Wang Xuan persuaded, “You know the situation with the Ni Family now. They’re currently entering a honeymoon period because of their gold mine cooperation in South Africa. Trying to set up the Ni Family is the same as dealing with two families simultaneously. My Wang Family might not fear anyone, but you must consider things wisely before making a decision. I know the reason why you hate Ni Jingqiu. Is it because of your fiance, Huo Kun? It’s unwise to cause a conflict between the two families for Huo Kun.”

“So, you’re still not going to help me in the end!” Wang Jiajia stood up again.

With a smile, Wang Xuan pulled his cousin back down on the seat and continued, “It’s not that I’m not helping you, but I need time to plan. You don’t have to worry about this matter. I will definitely take revenge for you.”

“Thank you, big brother!” A smile rose on Wang Jiajia’s face again.

Waving his hand, Wang Xuan smiled bitterly, “Let me enjoy my breakfast for now.”

“Please, take your time!” Wang Jiajia gave a sweet smile to Wang Xuan and quickly left. Wang Xuan was fond of such common people streets, but Wang Jiajia wasn’t comfortable staying here. She would feel uncomfortable staying here for a second. She did not have mysophobia, but she just didn’t like coming to such a tasteless place.

After Wang Jiajia left, Wang Xuan began to enjoy his breakfast wholeheartedly. He was fond of such a down-to-earth lifestyle.

There was a well-known American television series, House of Cards. The protagonist was already the vice-president, but he was fond of having his meal in an unremarkable restaurant. Wang Xuan wondered if he would become a leader a few decades later, like that protagonist in the television series. If that happens, this breakfast shop will become famous, and it would be a good story to tell.

Wiping his mouth with a napkin, Wang Xuan still paid the bill despite how Boss Chen insisted on treating Wang Xuan. Leaving behind a hundred-yuan bill, he said casually, “No need for change. Just set up an account and continue deducting my future breakfast.”

Seeing that Wang Xuan was so determined to pay, Boss Chen could only accept it. He sent Wang Xuan to the entrance and waited for him to get a black vehicle before he returned to his shop and exclaimed, “What a nice guy!”

Wang Xuan did not have the mood to decipher Boss Chen’s thoughts about him. When he got into the vehicle, he wore the Bluetooth headset and called Li Anbo. When the call got through, he sounded his unhappiness, “Ye Sheng has successfully completed a huge order, and the specifics have been ascertained. Su Tao was the middle-man in this transaction. This Su Tao is looking down on us! We came to him to cooperate, but he turned around and sold us!”

Listening to Wang Xuan’s tone filled with enmity for Su Tao, Li Anbo knitted his brows, “Shu Haonan’s mistake has nothing to do with Su Tao. We can only say that we’re not on the same road together. It’s not as serious as selling us off.”

“The military is pursuing our responsibility now. I raised a sum of money, but it’s far from enough!” Wang Xuan solemnly replied.

“Shu Haonan is responsible for this matter. Since he wasn’t careful enough and made this mistake, he should be the one to uphold the responsibility. Shu Haonan isn’t alone. He has the Gu Family backing him up. Gu Yang will definitely save him.” Li Anbo responded.

Wang Xuan was briefly stunned. He immediately understood Li Anbo’s meaning and sighed, “Then let’s cut off relations with Shu Haonan in the future.”

“The relationship is stable when there are interests for us. Shu Haonan should know about this matter. The mistake he made this time is too disastrous, and there’s nothing we can do to help.” Li Anbo solemnly said.

Wang Xuan nodded his head. Li Anbo was more thorough at dealing with these matters compared to him. This was the reason why he received more importance in the battle between factions in the family. He then asked, “If we can’t touch the Ni Family, can I tough Su Tao?”

“There’s no need for us to make a person unfortunate ourselves. We’ll just use someone’s hand to do it. Us hiding in the dark controlling the chessboard is a better strategy.” Li Anbo smiled bitterly.

“I nearly forgot about Qin Jingyu. He’s Su Tao’s mortal enemy…” Wang Xuan smiled, self-mockingly.

Nodding his head, Li Anbo shared a plan with Wang Xuan. When Wang Xuan heard about it, he was filled with praises for it, “Anbo, you’re truly filled with ideas!”

Hanging up the phone, Li Anbo rubbed his temples. He wore Su Tao’s name on a black piece of paper. He wouldn’t make the same mistake as Qin Jingyu, underestimating his opponent. The speed that Su Tao was growing was too terrifying. Even he had to pay attention to Su Tao.

Since they couldn’t be friends, then they would only be enemies. Li Anbo began to write some points out on the paper.

Since Su Tao had already given his promise, he would naturally see to it being fulfilled. He was making preparations for the talk in the hospital with all his heart. It was mainly because Tao Qiuping had contacted Su Tao several times for this matter.

The two even discussed the topic of the talk together, and Tao Qiuping’s hospitality was simply amazing.

National Healers have a high status in the medical system. Any hospital would actively try to invite National Healers to a talk as a culture. Besides, inviting top domestic experts could also bring insights to employees.

Tao Qiuping was a president with his own thoughts. He had a good grasp of politics, and judging from the current reformation of politics, there was a sigh of western medicine developing in the direction of TCM. This was why Tao Qiuping would invite Su Tao, the young representative of TCM, to the hospital for a talk.

Su Tao even went as far as practicing his facial expressions in the mirror no less than ten times. He had attached great importance to this speech. Because if he wanted to revitalize TCM, not only did he require excellent medical skills, but he also needed to infect others to come to like it. For that, hosting a talk was the best way.
