Divine Doctor and His CEO Wife-Chapter 371: Why Are You Here?

However, Chen Xiao left and she doesn’t know where he went. Where can she find him?

Maybe Lu Rugao knows?

After all, Lu Rugao and that guy are sort of in a half-relationship.

After coming back from Yuncheng City, she noticed Lu Rugao had changed.

Not only had she transformed from a young girl to a young woman, but there was also a subtle sadness on her brow that couldn’t be dissolved.

Although Lu Rugao often said she wished she could tear Chen Xiao to pieces, as her best friend she could see that Lu Rugao’s heart had already been tumultuously invaded by that guy.

Thinking of this, she gave Lu Rugao a call.

"Ruge, I have a favor to ask," Su Linger said directly, getting straight to the point.

"Hmm? What is it?" Lu Rugao’s voice sounded slightly tired.

After coming back from Yuncheng City, her status in the Lu Family had plummeted.

That feeling of falling from the clouds to the bottom was hard to bear.

It would be a lie to say she didn’t resent Chen Xiao.

To say she hated him, that wasn’t quite it either.

In short, she didn’t know how to handle this complicated relationship with Chen Xiao.

Su Linger hesitated for a moment and then said, "I want you to help me contact Chen Xiao."

She briefly explained the situation to Lu Rugao.

Hearing this, Lu Rugao felt a headache, "That guy is as stubborn as a mule. After what your Su Family pulled, I’m afraid it will be too difficult to get him back."

"Ruge, this is about my grandfather’s life and death, and the survival of my Su Family. No matter what, I have to try," Su Linger said.

"I will help you," Lu Rugao replied immediately.

Su Linger was her best friend, and she had helped her many times during her crises. Now that Su Linger was in trouble, she couldn’t just ignore it.

"Ruge, thank you," Su Linger was moved.

"Why say such things between us?" Lu Rugao smiled, "Alright, I’ll contact him now."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Rugao took a deep breath and then sent a message to Chen Xiao.

"I heard you’re in the Capital City, where are you?"

"Why? Missing me?" A few minutes later, Chen Xiao replied.

"Do you think that’s possible?" Lu Rugao’s tone carried a hint of pride and sarcasm.

"Oh, then never mind," Chen Xiao lazily responded.

He knew that this woman was anxious, otherwise, she wouldn’t suddenly contact him.

Let her worry a little longer.

After all, whoever panics first loses.

Lu Rugao messaged again, "Where are you?"

Chen Xiao didn’t reply.

She was so angry she could grind her teeth; this guy was too smart, the moment she looked for him, she was already at a disadvantage!

"Talk!"

Chen Xiao still didn’t respond.

Unable to hold her temper, she angrily initiated a voice call.

As Chen Xiao’s phone rang, Li Zhengming and the others, who had been chatting incessantly by his ear, smartly shut their mouths for the moment.

A slight smile crept up on Chen Xiao’s lips; after letting the phone ring for a few seconds, he slowly answered it.

"Playing dead?" Lu Rugao’s voice was filled with fury.

"Don’t forget you still owe me; how dare you talk to me like this? Aren’t you afraid I’ll come to the Lu Family to settle accounts?" Chen Xiao said slowly.

"Try it if you can!" Lu Rugao laughed coldly, "You’re all talk, right?"

"I know you’re in a hurry, but don’t be. Did Su Linger call you, asking you to mediate?" Chen Xiao asked gently.

"That’s right," Lu Rugao nodded, "I don’t even have that much face?"

"You do, but... it depends on your sincerity," Chen Xiao smiled, "Everything has its price."

Lu Rugao cursed him under her breath for being shameless and then coldly asked, "What kind of sincerity do you want?"

Actually, without Chen Xiao saying, she already knew what this pervert was thinking.

What else could she offer?

Chen Xiao said blandly, "I’ll be staying at Longting Hotel, we can discuss it in detail offline."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Lu Rugao sighed, it seemed today, again, would require a great sacrifice.

But, Su Linger had come to her for help.

What else could she do?

Su Linger helped her when she was in so much trouble, and she couldn’t just stand by!

Think of it as a dog biting her one more time...

Pretty soon, she began carefully applying light makeup and spent a long time selecting an outfit from the wardrobe, but still couldn’t find one she was satisfied with.

This won’t do...

Lu Rugao felt a bit helpless.

If she didn’t dress up a bit more attractively, that guy might not take the bait!

For Linger’s sake, she had to put in more effort.

Yes, it’s all for Linger!

Definitely not because she wanted to see that guy.

As she was meticulously selecting her clothes, Su Linger called again.

Lu Rugao set her phone aside, answered it, and picked another dress, examining it carefully in the mirror, her brows slightly furrowed.

This one looked too young, too lacking in presence.

After all, that guy liked her proud demeanor, she needed to have a more dominant style.

Thinking of this, she put the dress back.

"Ruge, how’s the situation now?" Su Linger asked urgently.

"That guy is at Longting Hotel," Lu Rugao replied casually, "but it’s a bit tricky."

"Longting Hotel..."

Su Linger took a deep breath. Since Lu Rugao said it was a bit tricky, that meant it might be difficult? As her best friend, she couldn’t let Lu Rugao make too much of a sacrifice.

Previously, Lu Rugao had already endured enough suffering with Chen Xiao.

She felt sorry for her.

This time, the trouble they caused by her family, why should Lu Rugao bear it?

She had to take responsibility for it herself.

Thinking of this, she said, "Ruge, thank you. I’ll handle the rest by myself."

After speaking, she hung up the call.

Lu Rugao: ???

She was all set to meet Chen Xiao and sacrifice herself, but Su Linger said she would handle it herself?

That’s not going to work!

Chen Xiao is a perv in disguise, how could she just watch Su Linger walk into the lion’s den?

"I must find that guy before Linger does to prevent him from taking advantage of her!" Lu Rugao thought to herself.

——

On the other side, in the car, after some persuasion from Li Zhengming and the others, Chen Xiao finally agreed to become the Sect Leader of the Hua Medical Sect, even though his role was mostly symbolic and hands-off.

Even so, once Chen Xiao agreed, Li Zhengming and the others were overjoyed.

With Chen Xiao supporting them, they had a lot more confidence!

Soon, Chen Xiao and the others arrived in front of the Longting Hotel.

This was a top-five-star hotel in the Capital City, with extremely high standards, where even a single-night stay started at half a million, and you might not even qualify to stay.

Leng Baiyu said, "We’ll stay here for a couple of nights, then I’ll take you to report to the Dragon Soul Headquarters."

"Okay." Chen Xiao nodded.

Pausing for a moment, Leng Baiyu gave him a glare as a warning, "Take it easy! You’re suddenly parachuting into Dragon Soul, a lot of people are dissatisfied, don’t let them force you until your legs are weak and you’re defeated, it’ll be embarrassing!"

Zhao Xingyu blinked, "Why would his legs get weak?"

Leng Baiyu scoffed, "Because of women, of course."

With that, she clasped her hands behind her back and walked away.

Chen Xiao touched his nose, feeling a bit awkward.

Zhao Xingyu, somewhat understanding, was that guy going to fool around again?

Wasn’t it just a few days ago that he was having fun with Qin Lan?

Just arrived in a new place, and already a new target?

Suddenly, she shivered and instinctively distanced herself from Chen Xiao.

This lecher, could he be targeting her?

As if seeing through Zhao Xingyu’s thoughts, Chen Xiao’s face showed slight disdain, "Don’t worry, what my senior sister said isn’t about you, I’m not interested in flat chests."

"Find your own room and check in."

Chen Xiao tossed a room card over and leisurely continued walking.

If nothing went wrong... Lu Rugao should be arriving soon.

It’s been a while since they last met, and he sort of missed her. After all, that woman... is really something!

The prouder her mouth, the more honest her body.

The feeling with her is different from others.

After entering the room, the first thing Chen Xiao did was take a shower, coming out of the bathroom.

Soon, the doorbell rang.

A smile tugged at Chen Xiao’s lips, "Come in, the door’s open."

"Click—" The door was slowly pushed open, but an unexpected visitor appeared.

Standing outside wasn’t Lu Rugao, but Su Linger.

His face darkened, asking coldly, "Why are you here?"
