Chapter 10 Zhou Ze Prepares to Act

Zhou Ze took out his phone, preparing to call Liu Chuyu.

Since Tongcheng had wandering evil spirits, there was a high probability that Changzhou would as well.

Even though this little brother, whom he had taken in under fortunate circumstances, didn't offer any greetings during festivals, nor did he know to send any gifts as a show of respect,

Zhou Ze was a generous man. Helping others and doing good deeds had always been his life's principle.

So he was prepared to go to Changzhou on his own initiative, to see if there was anything he could do to help.

After all, the more days that evil spirits spent in the mortal world, the more potential threats there were to the construction of a harmonious society.

As a law-abiding, tax-paying good citizen, Boss Zhou felt that he had an unshirkable responsibility in this matter.

"I'm sorry, the number you dialed is currently switched off, please try again later..."

He put down his phone.

Zhou Ze was a little surprised.

"Something must have happened. The phone is switched off."

"Maybe he just blacklisted you,"

The little loli added from the side.

Of course,

This was just a joke.

After all, Liu Chuyu's soul blood was still with Zhou Ze, which meant that his life was in Zhou Ze's hands. If he dared to dance and be mischievous with his life, Zhou Ze would really have to admire him.

A white car stopped in front of the bookstore. A woman in a black dress stepped out, with long flowing hair and an exquisite figure, coupled with an enviable temperament. Many passersby nearby turned their attention to her, regardless of whether they were with their girlfriends or not.

The little loli poked Zhou Ze and nodded towards the outside of the bookstore.

Zhou Ze pushed open the bookstore door and walked out.

The sun outside was blazing, and the road was "scorched," but Director Lin didn't seem to mind. However, she wasn't looking at the bookstore, nor did she seem to be waiting for Zhou Ze, but rather watching the progress of the renovation of the pharmacy next door.

The pharmacy was almost finished, and even the sign had been hung up. The decoration style was very high-end. It was more like a high-end private clinic than a pharmacy, but whether it had the qualifications and operating license depended on Dr. Lin's ability to smooth things over.

In fact, aside from the potential trouble that Zhou Ze's direct medical practice might cause later, opening a small private clinic shouldn't be too difficult for Director Lin. Otherwise, how did so many Putian-affiliated hospitals get started?

"You're here."

Boss Zhou started with a meaningless sentence.

Director Lin nodded.

Then, Boss Zhou said another meaningless sentence,

"Have you eaten?"

…………

By the glass door of the bookstore, the little loli and Bai Yingying, one big and one small, stood side by side.

The little loli crossed her arms.

Bai Yingying also struck the same pose.

The two women, at least for now, were on the same wavelength.

"So, he was a bachelor in his previous life too, right?"

The little loli looked at the seemingly foolish zombie next to her.

Bai Yingying nodded. "The boss was over thirty in his previous life and never married."

"Logically speaking, a director in a hospital, and a famous surgeon, should be very popular. Whether it's career development or social status, it's very attractive to the opposite sex, and this kind of persona is also liked by mothers-in-law.

It's not easy for him to stay single under such good conditions."

Bai Yingying nodded in agreement.

"Pfft... You're here, have you eaten..."

The little loli imitated Zhou Ze's tone and manner, and then couldn't help but laugh first.

"Single by choice, can't afford to mess with him."

………………

"I just happened to be passing by, so I wanted to see how the pharmacy's renovation was progressing. It looks like it's almost done."

"Mm."

Zhou Ze responded.

"In a few days, I'll arrange for a small team of medical staff to come over. I'll take care of the operating licenses and the like. If you feel itchy, you can go inside and play around. I'll set up an operating room for you inside, with top-notch equipment. As for your medical qualifications, I'll make a fake one for you. Let's do a traditional Chinese medicine one.

I believe, with your level, there won't be any problems, at least no medical accidents."

Zhou Ze nodded. Since the other party had already renovated the pharmacy, it would be a bit coy to refuse.

Moreover,

With Boss Zhou's special ability to capture wandering souls,

Being a doctor was like opening a cheat code.

At this moment,

Zhou Ze suddenly noticed that there was someone else sitting in Director Lin's car.

The person was wearing a burgundy suit, with sunglasses, sitting in the back seat looking at his phone. He was about forty years old, and everything from his wrist to his shoes was high-end, showing the taste of a successful man of his age.

The other party seemed to sense Zhou Ze's gaze, took off his sunglasses, revealed a pair of deep eyes, and nodded and smiled at Zhou Ze.

Zhou Ze narrowed his eyes.

He seemed to remember that he wasn't divorced, right?

Although the marital relationship was nominal, or even existed in name only, and only a shaky hand holding a pen was needed to end it,

At least it hadn't ended, had it?

Even if it had ended,

Being able to sincerely wish an ex-girlfriend or ex-wife well with another man,

That kind of person must be hypocritical to the extreme.

"This is Lawyer An. Our hospital and his law firm have recently established a cooperative relationship, and Lawyer An has recently handled several medical dispute cases for us, doing a very good job."

Director Lin introduced Zhou Ze.

"Lawyer An, this is my husband, Xu Le."

"Hello."

The other party nodded slightly to Zhou Ze, adding at the same time:

"A talented man and a beautiful woman."

That was pretty insincere.

If everyone was wearing casual clothes and walking dogs in the neighborhood, being praised as "a talented man and a beautiful woman" would be passable, since Xu Le's appearance wasn't bad.

Back then, Director Lin's parents had taken a liking to Xu Le as their live-in son-in-law, firstly because his parents were both dead,

Secondly because of his weak personality,

And thirdly, and most importantly, because he was quite handsome.

But now, next to a rising urban career woman,

Stood a kept man who ran a bookstore that only lost money,

And then to say "a talented man and a beautiful woman,"

It seemed a bit ironic.

"Let's have dinner together?" Director Lin invited Zhou Ze.

Lawyer An shrugged, somewhat disappointed,

"It seems I've lost the opportunity to have dinner with a beautiful woman."

Zhou Ze didn't refuse. He got into the passenger seat, and shouted at the two waiting wives standing at the door of the bookstore:

"Going out to discuss work."

Of course,

The two waiting wives automatically ignored the sentence,

And instead hummed together in a nasal tone,

"Heh,

Men."

………………

Dinner was chosen at a high-end restaurant in the development zone. The dishes in the restaurant were okay, not very amazing, and the decoration was okay, but it didn't have much character.

Perhaps,

The only unique thing was the waiters here. The girls wore uniform skirts, like white-collar workers or even students who had just gotten off work. Every time they brought up dishes, they seemed very respectful, and the service attitude was perfect.

This place was chosen by Lawyer An. He specially picked this one.

Director Lin put down her chopsticks halfway through the meal, apologized and said she was going to the restroom, and then left the table.

This Lawyer An then winked at Zhou Ze, wiped the corner of his mouth with a napkin, and pointed to the dishes in front of him, asking:

"How is the taste?"

"Not bad," Zhou Ze replied.

In fact, Zhou Ze had been observing him. At first, it was just out of a kind of instinctive scrutiny of the opposite sex approaching his "mother gorilla,"

Then,

It turned into a kind of curiosity.

This was a very charming middle-aged man, and every move he made was an interpretation of this.

Even Boss Zhou, who had lived two lives, couldn't do this. One was the age aspect, and the other was that Boss Zhou had never lived the life of a wealthy man.

Some things can be surpassed through hard work, but some things can only be smashed with money.

"Mr. Xu, is business good recently?" Lawyer An asked.

"Not bad, I just made two good deals."

"Are you referring to selling two books?"

Lawyer An laughed after saying that, and then pointed to the dishes in front of him, taking out a silver card from his pocket and sliding it across the table to Zhou Ze.

"I know what Mr. Xu is worried about. Don't worry, I have no such intentions.

Also,

If Mr. Xu, you feel that this meal doesn't suit your taste and you haven't eaten enough,

You can take this card and continue to order dishes,

However,

You can't come with your wife."

"Order dishes?"

"Yes, the people who eat here are not eating the dishes here, but the waiters who serve the dishes here. The last page of the menu lists the dishes, which are their prices, both male and female.

I've already chosen my dish for tonight, and it's getting dark soon, so I'll take my leave and go up to rest. Please apologize to Director Lin for me."

As he said that,

Lawyer An picked up his briefcase and snapped his fingers.

The female waiter who had just brought up a special dish immediately came over to help Lawyer An carry his briefcase, and the two of them went straight into the elevator.

Lawyer An also winked at Zhou Ze,

And kissed the girl next to him.

Zhou Ze played with the silver card in his hand,

"Where is he?"

Director Lin's voice came from behind.

Zhou Ze's fingers suddenly contracted, and the silver card went into his sleeve.

Heh,

Men.

"He said he was a little tired and went home to rest first, so as not to disturb us."

"Okay, let's take a walk and relax."

…………

At three o'clock in the morning,

"Aren't you tired? Don't you want to sleep and rest?"

The woman asked in astonishment.

Lawyer An took a deep breath, and his eyes slowly began to fill with bloodshot, and he said in a deep voice:

"Of course I want to sleep,

If,

I can still fall asleep.

Heh heh,

Who told the person lying next to me to be so attractive?"
