Super Doctor - Chapter 173
Seeing the pile of things Tang Zhi carried in, Xu Ze was stunned. Could there really be this many gifts?
Noticing Xu Ze’s confusion, Tang Zhi smiled and said, “Xiao Ze, there are a few sets of clothes and shoes here for you. You’ll need to wear them when the time comes, so remember to bring them along…”
With that, he handed over a card to Xu Ze and said, “This is from the Old Master. Expenses in Beijing are higher than here, so take this and don’t lose it…”
Looking at the gold card, Xu Ze smiled and accepted it without hesitation. His pockets weren’t exactly full, and he might need to spend money in Beijing. He carefully tucked it into his pocket and said, “Brother Tang… thank the Old Master for me. Tell him not to worry. Li Yue has already agreed to go with me…”
“Oh? Li Yue agreed to go with you?” Tang Zhi’s expression relaxed into a smile. “That’s good. That kid usually avoids getting involved in these kinds of things, but I’m surprised he’s willing to go with you… With him there, we can rest easy.”
After giving Xu Ze a few more reminders and urging him to be careful, Tang Zhi left.
Looking at the pile of things the Old Master had prepared, Xu Ze sighed softly. The Old Master was indeed thoughtful. Otherwise, he would have had to trouble Li Yue to go shopping with him.
Picking up the clothes the Old Master had prepared, Xu Ze noticed the “Givenchy” logo on the bag and couldn’t help but marvel. The Old Master had indeed provided only the best.
Givenchy—a brand he had never even dreamed of before. As one of the major cities in the country, Xing City did have a Givenchy boutique. It seemed the Old Master had put a lot of thought into this.
Trying on the clothes—a beige casual blazer, a shirt, a belt, and leather shoes—he found they fit perfectly, accentuating his tall and slender figure. Looking at himself in the mirror, resembling a handsome young heir, Xu Ze shook his head and smiled.
The next day, wearing a T-shirt and carrying a suitcase, Xu Ze drove to the airport on time. His glasses had now transformed into a Patek Philippe watch on his left wrist, and the Warcraft ring had also changed, taking on the appearance of a silver-white ring with subtle patterns.
Since he was going to Beijing, and the Old Master had gone to such lengths, he couldn’t embarrass him. If he showed up at the banquet wearing Givenchy but still sporting a Warcraft steel ring, he’d be laughed out of the room.
After collecting his boarding pass at the counter with his ID, he waited in the VIP lounge for a while before boarding the plane.
The Old Master had naturally booked him a first-class seat. This was Xu Ze’s first time on a plane, but with Xiao Dao’s guidance, he managed without any issues.
The flight attendants were, as rumored, mostly very beautiful. Dressed impeccably and exceptionally handsome, Xu Ze naturally attracted a lot of attention.
On the plane, Xu Ze experienced the flight attendants’ enthusiasm firsthand. Despite his casual attire, the fact that he was in first class and wearing a Patek Philippe made the flight attendants find excuses to refill his tea, offer him drinks, and more. Unexpectedly, he even received two little notes with phone numbers, leaving him with a wry smile…
But our pure-hearted Xu Ze had no intention of calling those numbers. After an hour and a half, he arrived at Beijing Airport. Carrying his suitcase, he followed the crowd out and quickly spotted a sign with his name at the exit…
As Xu Ze approached, a young man wearing sunglasses put down the sign and respectfully stepped forward to take Xu Ze’s suitcase. Apologetically, he said, “Young Master Xu, Young Master Yue is handling some matters right now. He asked me to take you to the hotel to rest. He’ll be here soon…”
“Alright… Thank you for the trouble!” Xu Ze nodded with a faint smile.
The young man quickly nodded in response to Xu Ze’s politeness and said with a smile, “The car is waiting at the entrance. Please follow me…”
They took a stretched Mercedes directly to the Beijing Hotel. Along the way, Xu Ze couldn’t help but glance outside from time to time. Beijing was indeed an ancient and majestic city.
The young man respectfully led him to a luxurious suite, informed him that Li Yue would arrive shortly, and then quietly left.
Xu Ze collapsed onto the sofa and checked his watch. It was already past eleven. Li Yue would probably join him for lunch soon. The journey by car and plane hadn’t tired him out. He had just turned on the TV when the doorbell rang.
Smiling, Xu Ze walked over and opened the door to find Li Yue standing there with a grin. “So, how does it feel to be in Beijing?”
Xu Ze let Li Yue in, closed the door, and said, “With you taking care of me, Beijing is naturally great…”
“Haha… Well said!” Li Yue casually sat on the sofa and asked, “Xu Ze, is this your first time in Beijing?”
Xu Ze nodded with a smile. “First time. I’ve never been here before.”
“Great… Then just follow my lead here… I’ll take you around to have some fun… Tomorrow, I’ll go with you to the Sun family.” Li Yue nodded, checked his watch, and asked with a smile, “Are you tired?”
“Not tired… I drove to the airport, took a plane, then a car. I barely moved much.”
“Alright then… Let’s go grab some food.” Li Yue stood up with a smile.
Li Yue’s car was also a sports car—a silver Aston Martin. Instead of heading to a bustling area, he drove out of the city and slowly entered a rather ancient and noble courtyard house.
As they got out of the car, a waiter in a white shirt and vest approached them respectfully and said to Li Yue with a smile, “Young Master Yue…”
“Mmm… Prepare a few dishes for us.” Li Yue rarely showed such a relaxed and cheerful demeanor.
Although Li Yue didn’t specify what dishes, the waiters here knew his preferences. The waiter respectfully replied, “Of course. Please follow me, Young Master Yue and sir.”
They followed the waiter into an elegant private room. The room was truly elegant—there was no wall opposite them, only a bamboo curtain, and beyond it was a small lake. Xu Ze couldn’t help but marvel. In a place as important as Beijing, having such a small lake was extremely rare.
Seeing Xu Ze’s astonishment, Li Yue smiled and said, “This is one of the few tranquil spots in the capital. It’s run by an elder brother of mine. I come here often.”
Noticing the respect in Li Yue’s tone when mentioning this “elder brother,” Xu Ze was inwardly surprised. Someone Li Yue held in such high esteem was surely no ordinary person.
Once they were seated, a waiter brought them two cups of tea. Xu Ze took a sip—it was top-grade Da Hong Pao. Though not as exceptional as the Old Master’s finest, it was still remarkable.
The dishes were served quickly—four or five in total, each exquisitely prepared. Li Yue pointed and explained, “The chef here is extraordinary. His family’s culinary skills have been passed down for over a hundred years. His grandfather was the imperial chef for the previous dynasty specializing in preparing meals for the emperor. His cooking is truly exceptional!”
Hearing that the chef was a descendant of an imperial chef, Xu Ze was intrigued. The legacy of an imperial chef here was surely not just for show—there had to be something unique about it.
He picked up his chopsticks and tried the dishes. They were indeed extraordinary: a plate of stir-fried shredded chicken, tender and flavorful; a steamed bream, fragrant and smooth, whetting the appetite; a bowl of secret-recipe duck soup, light yet endlessly eaving a lasting impression.
Beijing, with its accumulation of centuries of culture, certainly had its perks… Xu Ze ate until he was completely full.
Seeing Xu Ze’s hearty appetite, Li Yue was also all smiles. For some reason, he felt particularly fond of this young man and wanted to show him all the best things. With anyone else, he couldn’t be bothered.
After the meal, Li Yue took him to a wooden cabin. As they walked, they encountered two guests who, upon seeing Li Yue, showed respect and greeted him politely. Li Yue responded with casual nods.
The two guests also noticed Xu Ze following behind Li Yue. Even though Xu Ze was simply dressed in a white T-shirt and jeans, his calm and composed demeanor beside Li Yue made them not dare to underestimate him. They smiled and nodded at Xu Ze.
Xu Ze followed Li Yue into a warm spring for a soak. After wrapping themselves in towels, they were greeted by two stunning beauties who gave them men’s spa treatments…
Xu Ze wasn’t quite used to this, but Li Yue chuckled beside him and said, “Xu Ze, I brought you here specifically to enjoy this. Relax. Their skills are top-notch. You’ll feel great afterward.”
Hearing this, Xu Ze relaxed and let the beauties massage him and apply warm moxibustion… Just as Li Yue had said, under their skilled hands, Xu Ze felt all the tension in his muscles melt away, leaving him relaxed and comfortable…
The beauties massaging Xu Ze were also amazed. They had never seen such flawless skin on a man—smooth as jade and utterly natural.
Li Yue, too, noticed Xu Ze’s delicate skin and well-defined muscle lines and couldn’t help but remark, “Xu Ze… how did you get such skin? I’ve never seen anyone with such naturally perfect skin.”
Hearing this, the two beauties pricked up their ears, but Xu Ze’s response disappointed them.
“I don’t know. It’s just always been like this,” Xu Ze murmured contentedly as he lay on the soft bed.
“……” Li Yue was speechless at Xu Ze’s seemingly genuine reply.
In the evening, after dinner, Xu Ze declined Li Yue’s offer to take him out for a night tour. Instead, he stayed quietly in his room. Tomorrow was Ling Fei’s birthday. She probably didn’t know he had come yet.
He took out his phone and gently dialed her number…
“Du… du… du…” The phone rang for a long time without an answer. Just as Xu Ze was about to hang up in disappointment, his phone suddenly rang. Seeing the familiar name on the screen, a smile slowly spread across his face…
