Open A Clinic To Cultivate Myself Chapter 171 Bai Jing's Intention To Visi

Jiang Fuquan and Yang Dafeng came here as well. At the sight of Jiang Tingting, the couple rushed up and held her in their arms. All three of them cried like children.

Outside the police cordon, Ning Tao was all smiles. Seeing the family reunite, he felt that what he had done was worth it.

Suddenly, something came to Jiang Fuquan. He wiped his eyes and looked out of the cordon. His eyes darted from face to face. Unfortunately he did not see the face he was looking for.

“Brother Ning, why didn't you go see the old man?” Qing Zhui asked Ning Tao after they left the dock.

Ning Tao beamed and replied, “What did I see him for? It is enough for him to find his daughter. By the way, has the s.h.i.+p been cleaned up?”

“Yes, I killed them all, and cleaned up the s.h.i.+p,” Qing Zhui replied.

“Good for you,” praised Ning Tao. In fact, he thought it a pity. Those on that cargo s.h.i.+p were not good people. Now that they were all involved in the kidnapping of those girls, they must bear sins of evil intention. Unfortunately, due to time, Ning Tao could not earn them all. Otherwise he would earn a large sum of sins of evil intention again.

Qing Zhui put her hand on Ning Tao's arm and said with a smile, “Brother Ning, you promised to treat me to seafood. I'm hungry. Let's go eat seafood.”

“Okay, let's go right now,” said Ning Tao brightly. He didn't take his arm from Qing Zhui's arm. Since Qing Zhui liked to take his arm, he let her take it. She was so hard to help him earn rent, he could not haggle over every ounce, or, he would appear stingy.

Half an hour later, Ning Tao and Qing Zhui entered a seafood restaurant.

“You order whatever you want,” Ning Tao said.

“Then I will not be polite to you.” Qing Zhui took the menu and ordered much food, such as lobster, oyster, and salmon.

Ning Tao thought it was a waste of money that she ordered too much. He wanted to ask her if she could eat that much food, but he didn't say it out. Why couldn't he pay thousands of yuan to invite Qing Zhui to dinner when he gave 10,000 yuan to a delivery guy at will? It was okay for him to be frugal, but he should be generous to Qing Zhui. Money was for spending. No matter how much money Qing Zhui spent, she deserved it.

Ning Tao opened his small medicine chest and took out the cell phone that was put in it before he jumped into the river.

As soon as he took out his mobile phone, he got a call.

A foreign number appeared on his phone screen. Ning Tao wasn't familiar with the foreign number, but he had a rough idea who the caller was. He thought for a moment and tapped the answer b.u.t.ton.

A woman's voice asked, “Excuse me, Doctor Ning.”

“Miss Joanna, never mind.” Ning Tao identified her from the voice.

Joanna's voice said, “Doctor Ning, you left without leaving a phone number. I had to ask Mr. Fan for your phone number and then take the liberty of calling you. Well, that's it. Are you free? I'd like to take you out to dinner.”

Ning Tao paused for a moment before saying, “Miss Joanna, I treated your father for the sake of Mr. Fan. If you want to say thank you, thank him. It's none of my business. Forget about dinner. I won't be free these days.”

He ended his conversation with Joanna.

Ning Tao could see her face, but he could imagine how ugly it must have been.

“That's it. Don't call if there is nothing serious.” Ning Tao just hung up.

He did heal Barnes, but he had earned 699 points of merits of good intention from him. It was a considerable sum of payment for him. He had been paid by Barnes, and he could no longer accept any material grat.i.tude from Barnes. Joanna was not Barnes, but she was Barnes' adopted daughter, so he didn't want to be a.s.sociated with her. It was not polite, but it was the best way to solve the problem.

“That blonde?” Qing Zhui asked.

“Yes, it's her, but leave her alone,” Ning Tao said.

“Today in the Prosperous House, my sister talked to me a lot…” Qing Zhui seemed to remember something, but didn't go on.

Ning Tao smiled and said, “It doesn't matter. You only say what you can tell me, and don't say what you can't tell me. Everyone has their own privacy. You don't have to consider my feelings.”

“Okay.” Qing Zhui gave Ning Tao a beautiful and charming smile.

Ning Tao didn't ask her, but looked down at his phone. There had been news reported about the rescue of the missing girls, but it had not been made clear how or by whom they were rescued.

Ning Tao had seen this coming. That was why he didn't go to rescue the kidnapped girls right after he got on the s.h.i.+p. He saved them, but he didn't meet them. He was invisible throughout the whole thing. Everyone who saw him was dead, even their bodies were gone. A dead man without a body not only could not reveal the truth, but also left no trace of being killed. Therefore, the police couldn't trace him, let alone the media.

After reading the news, Ning Tao opened Baidu search engine and entered the word “Lord of Jar” in the search bar.

A lot of content about “princess”, which was p.r.o.nounced the same in Chinese as “Lord of Jar”, appeared on his mobile phone, none of which was about “Lord of Jar”.

Ning Tao was a little confused. “Zhang Weibiao said the word might have something to do with the big jar. Was he wrong?”

Ning Tao read Baidu Baike's explanation of “princess”.

This kind of princess was the t.i.tle of the daughter of a va.s.sal king in the Han dynasty. At that time, only the daughter of the emperor could be called “Gong Zhu” in Chinese, and the daughter of the n.o.bility was called “Ong Zhu” in Chinese, but both were called “princess” in English.

After seeing the explanation, Ning Tao was even more confused. “If what Zhang Weibiao had said meant a “princess” rather than “Lord of Jar”, the mastermind behind it should be a woman, and perhaps even a demon that lived from the Han dynasty to the present.”

Chinese characters could be a real pain sometimes. Some words had the same p.r.o.nunciation but different meanings. Some words had different p.r.o.nunciations and meanings in different sentences.

At that moment, the waiter brought the baked lobster.

However, before Ning Tao and Qing Zhui could start to take chopsticks, a white figure came to their table. The comer did not greet them, but moved a chair and sat down.

There was only one woman who dared do that in the world. It was Bai Jing.

Qing Zhui asked in surprise, “Bai Jing, how did you know we were here?”

Bai Jing smiled and said, “You are my sister brought up by me. If I can't find you, I'm a failure as a sister. Don't you think so, Doctor Ning?”

Ning Tao smiled and asked, “Why didn't you call me first?”

“I'm afraid it will interrupt you,” Bai Jing said.

What did her remark mean? She was here now, but said she did not want to disturb them.

Ning Tao just asked, not expecting her to say so. He summoned the waiter and asked him to add a pair of chopsticks.

The dishes came, but Bai Jing didn't take the chopsticks. She just watched Ning Tao and Qing Zhui eat.

“Bai Jing, why don't you eat?” Qing Zhui had something in her mouth and her voice was a little unclear.

Bai Jing replied, “I'm not hungry. Go ahead.”

Ning Tao said tentatively, “Miss Bai, you didn't come here just to see us eat, did you? Tell me what you want.”

“Nothing important. I just want to hang out with you,” Bai Jing answered.

Ning Tao didn't believe her explanation. He looked at Bai Jing, trying to read her mind. But he soon discovered that this was wishful thinking. He had no idea what Bai Jing was thinking.

Bai Jing smiled and said, “Why do you look at me like that? Don't you believe what I said? You two, one is my sister; the other is my sister's demon master. We're like a family. What's wrong with a family gathering?”

Ning Tao smiled back and said, “How could I not believe you? It's good to get together. Think about where we're going later. Let's have fun after dinner.”

Bai Jing was silent.

Qing Zhui seemed to want to say something, but she just moved her lips without saying it.

If Bai Jing did not come, this sumptuous meal would undoubtedly be carried on and ended in a pleasant atmosphere, but Bai Jing's arrival made the atmosphere inexplicably awkward. Ning Tao took a quick bite, and Qing Zhui stopped without eating much. Ning Tao went to check out and left the restaurant with Bai Jing and Qing Zhui.

“Have you any idea where you're going?” Ning Tao asked.

Qing Zhui shook her head.

“Why don't we go to your house,” Bai Jing suggested. “I want to see where you live with my sister.” After a pause, she added, “Drop by your clinic.”

That was why she had suddenly come to them.

“Bai Jing…” Qing Zhui began but then stopped.

Bai Jing smiled and asked, “Qing Zhui, what are you trying to say?”

“No, nothing,” Qing Zhui replied.

Ning Tao looked at them, his face impa.s.sive. “Well, then, let's go home. If you want to go to the clinic, let's go.”

Bai Jing beamed and said, “Does it bother you?”

Ning Tao politely replied, “No, no, I'll get a cab. You two have a chat.”

“No, I came here by car,” Bai Jing said. “It was parked on the side of the road. Wait a moment. I'll fetch the car.”

Ning Tao took a look at the curb and sure enough saw the Brabus G500 parked there. He smiled and said, “Miss Bai, you are really thoughtful.”

Bai Jing went to get the car later.

Qing Zhui whispered, “Brother Ning, Bai Jing must have come at Bai Sheng's command. You might refuse her request.”

“She's your sister. Since she wanted to visit there, I'll show her. As for what Bai Sheng wants to do, I'm not worried. The clinic is there and he can even burn it down if he wants.”

That was Ning Tao's basic strength and confidence. Knowing Bai Jing's purpose was to go to the Sky Clinic, he didn't care. Chen Pingdao was driven crazy by the Sky Clinic. Tang Tianren, the grandmaster of the Tang Sect, was afraid to go near the clinic. Then could Bai Sheng, a snake demon, climb up to the roof of the Sky Clinic and lift the tiles? If Bai Sheng did manage to burn down the Sky Clinic, Ning Tao could get rid of it, which was exactly what he expected!

“Brother Ning, I know you're thinking about my feelings. I'm sorry… I put you in trouble.” Qing Zhui's voice was very low.

Ning Tao smiled. “Don't be so polite to me, you silly girl.”

Qing Zhui grinned and said, “Okay, we're a family after all. We should not be too polite to each other.”

Ning Tao didn't dare answer. Cohabitation was already a complicated situation, and if he admitted they were a family, it wouldn't be long before he and Qing Zhui shared a quilt.

Bai Jing quickly pulled over. Ning Tao and Qing Zhui got into her car, and then Brabus G500 headed for Hakka Alley.
