I Have A Dual World Seal-Chapter 607: Zhao Xiaodao Feels Envious to the Point of Sourness

Zhao Xiaodao is small and thin, with an innocent round face. Coming from humble beginnings, she typically greets others with a smile and rarely speaks harshly. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

This was the first time Deng Pao Pao saw Zhao Xiaodao angry, and speaking so bluntly.

"Little Saber, don't be mad, President Duan was just concerned, no other intention." Deng Pao Pao hurriedly stepped in to mediate.

"Is this how concern is shown?" Zhao Xiaodao didn't even give Deng Pao Pao any face, just nodded at him, "Sorry, Brother Chao, I'll call you later."

Then, she extended her hand, motioning firmly, "Please leave, everyone."

"Miss Zhao, please think carefully, what kind of medicine? There's only one pill, what exactly did he tell you...?"

"Please!"

Zhao Xiaodao was unmoved, "Do I need to call a waiter?"

"You! I really don't know how you got to such a position!" Duan Yu Kai was furious, then looked at Lu Zheng, "The reputation of traditional Chinese medicine is ruined by charlatans like you!"

Lu Zheng blinked, without saying a word.

Although the other party supported traditional Chinese medicine, he didn't say it was all charlatanry, but this is too arbitrary. How did someone with such an arrogant temper become a chairman?

Lu Zheng was too lazy to argue with him. After all, they're just strangers; am I supposed to perform just to get his approval?

"Alright, let's go!"

Duan Chengru pulled his son along, frowning as he glanced at the porcelain bottle on the table, taking a sniff.

Honestly, he was a bit skeptical too, because since coming in, the herbal fragrance had intensified. He sniffed again, feeling that the scent was incredibly aromatic, like fake medicine.

While there was a herbal scent inside, it seemed veiled by a layer of refreshing fragrance, mystifying, like an Immortal Pill, unlike the bitter aroma of typical Chinese medicine pills.

So he didn't immediately stop his son's questioning.

But now that even the main person involved doesn't care, they didn't need to play the bad guy. After all, it's modern times, not ancient, and Zhao Xiaodao isn't an ordinary person. At most, the other party would only make some common health-keeping sugary pills, not put lead or mercury in it, so it wouldn't harm anyone.

"Sorry for the intrusion."

Duan Chengru nodded at the group, pulled his son away, then looked at Lu Zheng, "If it's just for detoxification and beauty, don't use too much cooling Chinese medicine, otherwise, it might cause issues. Of course, if it's just one pill, it's not a big problem."

Lu Zheng couldn't help but laugh. Was he advising me to be careful not to harm the deceived while scamming?

The old man is quite interesting!

"Thank you for the advice, sir." Lu Zheng couldn't help but smile, "I've self-studied traditional Chinese medicine for a few months, and I consider myself competent, so I won't mess around."

A few months of Chinese medicine…

"Alright then, as long as you know what you're doing."

Duan Chengru could only nod, sigh, and then walked away with Duan Yu Kai.

Deng Pao Pao and Lady Sun exchanged looks, seeing Zhao Xiaodao still looking determined, they could only nod at Lu Zheng as a greeting before leaving.

"Little Saber, call me later." Lady Sun said before leaving.

Zhao Xiaodao nodded, watched the four leave, then closed the door and looked nervously at Lu Zheng, "Boss..."

Lu Zheng waved his hand, "You still don't consider us friends."

Zhao Xiaodao immediately reacted, smiling broadly, "Brother Lu!"

Lu Zheng laughed heartily, and Lin Wan pulled Zhao Xiaodao back to her seat, "Don't worry, we're not that petty."

Zhao Xiaodao nodded repeatedly, "Brother Lu and Sister Wan are remarkable urban legends hiding in plain sight; without such magnanimity, they'd not settle for simplicity."

"Tsk tsk, big stars do know how to talk, but unfortunately, they're just too flat." Lu Zheng shook his head.

Zhao Xiaodao, "..."

"How about having Little Saber introduce you to Liu the Celestial Immortal and Yang Mi?" Lin Wan smiled charmingly, sitting next to Lu Zheng.

"Hiss—"

Lu Zheng already felt Lin Wan's jade hand on his waist and quickly shook his head, "One with an iron smile, the other with a broad forehead, would I be tempted? It's simply a joke!"

Zhao Xiaodao couldn't help but laugh, not caring about Lu Zheng's previous comment, instead, she encouraged him, "Although my relationship with the two is just average, I can still talk to them. If Brother Lu is really interested, I could gather them for a meet-up sometime?"

Lu Zheng was dumbfounded, "I didn't expect someone with thick eyebrows and big eyes to be a traitor?"

Zhao Xiaodao raised an eyebrow, who made you keep saying people are flat, don't you know she's a woman too?

After a few jokes, the atmosphere relaxed a lot, and by then, the waiter finally knocked to serve the dishes.

"I just heard about the earlier situation from the waiter, very sorry. Today's meal is on me, please allow Miss Zhao to give me a chance to apologize." The boss came to apologize and even included an extra dish.

"President Liu, no need to be so courteous, we're all friends, and they also knocked earlier, so it was me who let them in." Zhao Xiaodao waved her hand, her expression calm, showing no emotion.

"Thank you for understanding! But we were indeed somewhat neglectful, I'll punish myself with a drink." The boss downed a glass of liquor and then backed off, saying as he left, "Enjoy your meal."

"A master of networking, absolutely flawless!" Lu Zheng praised.

Zhao Xiaodao nodded, "He relies on this private kitchen to have even broader connections than I do."

Lin Wan shook her head, "That's just superficial, when things really happen, you can tell if it's genuine connections or not."

"That's true." Zhao Xiaodao picked up a small fish for Lin Wan, "Sister Wan, try this, Yangtze River saber fish, quite a rarity."

"Thank you!"

...

After that, no one bothered them again. Although these dishes weren't as tasty as Lu Zheng's cooking, but since it's a private gathering place for star elites, the quality was certainly better than those so-called high-end online restaurants.

Moreover, the ingredients were clean, the presentation delicate, and the taste reasonably good, so Lu Zheng and Lin Wan were satisfied.

A satisfying lunch finished happily for hosts and guests alike.

As a result, after eating and going out, they coincidentally ran into Deng Pao Pao and his group again.

Duan Yu Kai sneered with disdain, Duan Chengru nodded solemnly, Deng Pao Pao and his wife nodded to say hello.

Zhao Xiaodao remained composed, Lin Wan paid it no mind, and Lu Zheng even waved at Duan Chengru.

Then…

They went their separate ways!

...

"That old man was quite amusing," Lu Zheng smiled, "He's a good person."

Lin Wan pursed her lips; although she knew it was normal, she was unhappy seeing them question Lu Zheng.

Zhao Xiaodao saw through Lin Wan's mood immediately and instead of comforting, she enviously changed the topic, asking, "Sister Wan, what do you usually do? Do you fly over eaves and walls, zipping through the steel jungle at night?"

Appreciating Zhao Xiaodao's good intentions, Lin Wan also let go of her earlier displeasure, "There are surveillance cameras all over the city, we wouldn't dare to run around everywhere, but..."

"But what?"

"But we can have fun freely in the wilderness," Lin Wan smiled, taking out a phone to show Zhao Xiaodao pictures of herself with the Giant Panda and Northeast Tiger.

Zhao Xiaodao was dumbfounded, feeling quite envious.
