Village Doctor's Women-Chapter 82 - 78

No way, no way... It can’t possibly be about Sister Qianqian. If that’s true, it would cause huge problems.

As this thought crossed Ren Yu’s mind, she couldn’t help but glance at Wang Jian again. If Cai Qiong hadn’t been there, she might have even tried to probe for more information. Deep down, however, she denied the possibility. After all, that was... If it were really true, she wouldn’t know how to face it. But even if it wasn’t Sister Qianqian, she was almost certain that Wang Jian was involved in something. Otherwise, Cai Qiong would have no reason to say such a thing.

At that moment, Ren Yu was deeply conflicted. Who could it be? Her mood soured. Her rival was a complete mystery. She wasn’t afraid of a direct competitor like Cai Qiong, who had shown up right at her door. What she feared was competing against a mysterious rival who was impossible to pin down. The enemy was in the shadows while she was out in the open. How could she possibly compete?

Perhaps she could find out from Cai Qiong who this person was.

With this in mind, Ren Yu’s tone shifted. "Miss, if you plan to keep observing, have you found a place to stay yet?"

"Huh?" Not only Cai Qiong but even Wang Jian was taken aback, looking at Ren Yu with utter confusion. Just a moment ago, she looked ready for a fight, and now her entire tone had changed. Is this what women are like?

Cai Qiong shook her head. "Not yet. I haven’t even decided if I’ll start right away. I mainly came to take a look first."

"But, you did remind me," Cai Qiong said with a laugh, turning to Wang Jian. "Doctor Wang, you should have a spare room in your house, right? My dad stayed with you last time he came, so now it’s my turn."

"It wouldn’t be convenient for you to stay at my place, would it? You can’t compare yourself to Uncle Cai—he’s a man," Wang Jian said, narrowing his eyes. He clearly didn’t want Cai Qiong at his house. He and Xu Qian were in their honeymoon phase, and their evenings were a private world meant for two. How could he let Cai Qiong stay over?

Wang Jian added, "Besides, it’s not far from the city. It’s only a half-hour drive, so you don’t have to stay in the village."

"Brother Jian’s right," Ren Yu chimed in. "If you really must stay, why don’t you come to my house? You can stay with me."

"Little sister," Cai Qiong laughed, "If I stay at your place, I might as well go home. What’s the point if I’m not at Wang Jian’s house to observe him?"

Seeming to have made up her mind, she looked at Wang Jian and said, "You’re so against me staying over. Do you have a secret you’re afraid I’ll discover?"

THUMP! To Wang Jian, Cai Qiong’s words were like a clap of thunder. He nearly blanched. "What secret could I possibly have? I just don’t want to clean a room."

"You don’t have to. I can tidy up myself," Cai Qiong said with a triumphant smile. "I was originally just going to take a look today, but since you’ve reminded me, let’s start this project tonight." 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

"Doctor Wang, I’ll be in your care from now on. I’ll be following you at all times."

Cai Qiong raised two fingers, pointing back and forth from her own eyes to Wang Jian, making it clear she would be watching him constantly.

Great. All that talking had been a complete waste of breath. Cai Qiong even took out her phone and started calling Cai Xing. Wang Jian had hoped Chairman Cai would refuse, but to his dismay, he heard Cai Xing not only agree but do so with great encouragement. Wang Jian rolled his eyes, knowing the decision was final. If Wang Xiang’s treatment didn’t depend on Cai Qiong, he would have flipped the table and stormed out right then and there.

A headache began to form. "Fine," Wang Jian said helplessly. "It’s just a psychological study. What’s the rush? I’m just an ordinary person. You’ll regret it once you start."

Hearing this, Cai Qiong simply smiled without responding. Her proposal to conduct a psychological study had been a spur-of-the-moment idea, but after learning about Wang Jian from Cai Xing, she had become genuinely interested in his life story.

If Wang Jian was an ordinary person, then Cai Qiong would have to seriously question her definition of the term. Could an ordinary person possess such excellent Medical Skills? Could an ordinary person achieve a level in Chinese medicine that even National Masters praised? Could an ordinary person cure heart disease?

These things weren’t even the main point. What Cai Qiong was most curious about was how Wang Jian had managed to learn such incredible Medical Skills at such a young age. Even more curious was the identity of Wang Jian’s master.

Indeed, after finding out about Wang Jian, Cai Xing had investigated his background. Doctor Niu had also said that no one at Wang Jian’s school could have taught him Medical Skills of this caliber, which made Wang Jian’s supposed "master" an incredibly mysterious figure. After investigating, Cai Xing couldn’t find even a shadow of this master. In this age of the Internet of Everything, the existence of such a phantom-like individual was bound to pique his curiosity. After hearing Cai Xing’s description, Cai Qiong’s curiosity reached its peak, which was why she had "coincidentally" arrived in Paigou Village so early in the morning.

That entire morning, Cai Qiong just sat in the clinic, watching Wang Jian and Ren Yu at work. As an obvious city dweller, she was quite conspicuous in the village clinic, and patients coming in for treatment couldn’t help but give her a few extra glances.

Even the village chief, Li Dayu, who only showed up in the afternoon to kill time, had his attention caught by a single glance as he passed the clinic’s entrance. He seized the opportunity when Ren Yu stepped out to use the restroom, calling out from the village committee office to stop her. "Xiao Yu, come here a minute."

"What is it, Village Chief? I have patients inside today, so I can’t be out for long."

"I know, I know," Li Dayu said, his face brimming with curiosity as he ignored everything else and pointed into the clinic. "Who’s that woman sitting in there? She doesn’t look like a patient."

"Hmm?" Ren Yu immediately knew he was talking about Cai Qiong. "You mean the woman sitting next to Wang Jian? The one in the low-cut top, looking all provocative?"

Li Dayu was stunned. This was the first time he had ever heard Xiao Yu describe someone in such a way. To the elders, Ren Yu was just as much of a good kid as Wang Jian. In fact, being a girl, her disposition was considered much gentler than his. So, hearing her sharp words, Li Dayu’s first reaction was surprise. Then, he followed her gaze to get a better look. When he’d passed by earlier, he had only given a casual glance and hadn’t looked closely.

Is it really a low-cut top?

With an inquisitive gaze, Li Dayu looked carefully. He had reached the age of presbyopia, but at this moment, it proved to be an advantage. His eyes caught a flash of snowy white, and he couldn’t help but nod. However, since the woman clearly had some connection to Wang Jian, he knew better than to stare. He quickly looked away, only to meet Ren Yu’s gaze.

As luck would have it, her look was one of clear disdain. "Men are all the same, no matter their age," she muttered under her breath.

Li Dayu felt a little awkward. The girl seemed to be on the warpath, and he had a good idea why. Ren Yu had grown up with Wang Jian, and now that a mature, sexy woman had appeared by his side, she was obviously jealous. So, he didn’t hold her rudeness against her. Besides, he was a bit embarrassed himself. "So, who is she, exactly?" he asked with a dry laugh.

Ren Yu pursed her lips, reigning herself in a bit. Although Li Dayu wasn’t the most upstanding of men, he was still the village chief, and she couldn’t go too far. "That woman is Chairman Cai’s daughter," she explained.

"What?" This time, Li Dayu was truly shocked. "You mean *the* Chairman Cai? Of the Cai Corporation?"

Ren Yu rolled her eyes. "Uncle Li, what kind of question is that? Besides that Chairman Cai, what other Chairman Cai is there in our city?"

Without waiting for his reaction, she turned and went back into the clinic.

Li Dayu didn’t mind her departure. He stood frozen on the spot for a long while, his gaze fixed on the clinic’s interior as all sorts of thoughts churned in his mind. This was a real eye-opener. He thought he had already held Wang Jian in high regard, but it seemed he had still underestimated the young man. This kid wasn’t just a doctor with connections to the Cai family; not only did Chairman Cai visit regularly, but now the Cai family’s princess had come as well.

Could it be that a Cinderella story is about to unfold?

An entire soap opera began playing out in Li Dayu’s mind. As he thought this, the way he looked at Cai Qiong and Wang Jian changed. Cai Qiong was merely observing Wang Jian, but in Li Dayu’s eyes, her gaze was now full of deep affection. It wasn’t just him; even Ren Yu saw that look as one of affection.

Growing anxious, Ren Yu clenched her small fists by her side, her displeasure obvious. She was furious. This situation, where she could only watch without being able to do anything, was incredibly frustrating. Especially since this Cai Qiong woman had clearly figured out her feelings but kept provoking her, deliberately getting close to Wang Jian right in front of her. She called it "observation," but she was practically pressing her chest against him. Who would believe that?

Ren Yu’s knuckles turned white as she clenched her fists.

Pfft, so what if her boobs are big?
