Open a Clinic to Cultivate Myself Chapter 292 Cat and Mouse

Qing Zhui and Bai Jing exchanged glances and said nothing. They got up and left for the outside.

The two debt-collecting youths also went out of the shop. The Crew Cut took out his cell phone to call someone.

Ning Tao paid and asked, “Auntie, can you give me your telephone number?”

Zhou Shufen's eyes were dull. She seemed not to have heard Ning Tao.

Ning Tao asked again, “Auntie?”

Zhou Shufen said, “Where can I find so much money to pay the debt? If I lose this shop, how will my son and I survive?”

Ning Tao said patiently, “Auntie, please give me the phone number of the debt-collectors. I will ask them for grace for you.”

Only now did Zhou Shufen shift her eyes to Ning Tao. Her expression seemed completely baffled. “You're… asking them for grace for me?”

Ning Tao said, “I have some acquaintances in the underworld. Give me the phone number of the loan shark. Perhaps I can ask them for grace on your behalf. They might leave you alone for some time and reduce their interest rate.”

“I… I… I will give you that man's phone number to you right now.” Zhou Shufen hastily took out her cell phone and searched for the number.

A drowning person will clutch at a straw to survive.

After Ning Tao received the phone number, he went out of the shop.

Crew Cut and Golden Hair were bragging before Bai Jing and Qing Zhui. They claimed that they held high positions in their company and earned several dozen thousands a month. Their saliva flew as they boasted. The sisters listened to them without any expression, keeping quiet. Crew Cut and Golden Hair had only refrained from molesting them because they were on a busy street. If they did that, one of them would die within a second.

Ning Tao walked over. “Okay, let's go.”

Bai Jing frowned. “Are we really visiting a bar with them?”

Ning Tao smiled. “So what if we go together for some fun?”

Crew Cut said, “That's right. So what if we go together for some fun? I drive. Let's leave in my car.”

There was a Hyundai Celesta worth tens of thousands parked outside the shop. The car had not been washed for a month. It was dirty and beat-up.

Qing Zhui and Bai Jing shifted their eyes and glanced at the car. Both of them furrowed their brows.

Ning Tao said, “We have our transport. We won't take yours.”

Golden Hair looked around and did not see any. He asked, “Where's your car?”

Ning Tao walked up a few steps and pushed out his electric motorbike, God's Will, from the public bicycles lot. “This is my transport.”

Golden Hair's face was full of scorn. “It's just an electric motorbike. How can you let the ladies sit on this?”

Crew Cut said, “Babes, please ride in my car. It's much safer.”

But Qing Zhui and Bai Jing completely ignored them and headed straight for God's Will. Ning Tao mounted the motorbike and Qing Zhui also went up, clasping Ning Tao's waist. Then Bai Jing mounted behind them, clasping Qing Zhui's waist.

Crew Cut and Golden Hair were flabbergasted. Although their car was not worth much, it was still a car on four wheels. The two girls preferred to ride on an electric motorbike rather than their car. How could this lad with the electric motorbike win the affection of these two beauties? Did he had some special gift or talent?

Not only were Crew Cut and Golden Hair shocked, the crowds on the streets also gazed over, some even standing on their tiptoes to look.

Ning Tao said, “What are you guys waiting for?”

Only now did Crew Cut and Golden Hair recover. They crept into their dirty and beat-up Hyundai Celesta. Crew Cut started the engine and drove it to the entrance of the alley. Golden Hair poked his head out from the window, beckoning Ning Tao to follow.

Ning Tao revved up his engine a little and followed behind the Hyundai Celesta.

In the Hyundai Celesta, Crew Cut caught a glimpse of Ning Tao trailing from the back mirror. Qing Zhui was hugging his waist and Bai Jing were behind them. He could not help but swear. “Fuck it, this idiot on an electric motorbike can win such pretty girls! And two of them!”

Golden Hair sneered. “Does he have a big dick? Damn, I must pull down his pants later to see if his is long. This moron can win the favor of such pretty girls. He must be tired of living!”

Crew Cut said as he drove, “I've given Brother Dong a call. He will be in the bar later. He'll be overjoyed if we bring these girls there.”

Golden Hair started to chuckle loudly. “Hehehe…”

Half an hour later, the electric motorbike God's Will had arrived at a bar. Ning Tao dismounted and entered the bar behind Golden Hair and Crew Cut with Qing Zhui and Bai Jing.

The lights in the bar was very dim. A few scantily dressed women were gyrating their hips on the stage. They put on provocative poses as music blared loudly. There were numerous young men and women dancing on the dance floor. The air was thick with the stench of money, alcohol and hormonal lust. Every one of them was intoxicated, unwilling to wake up from their drunken stupor.

“This place is so noisy. I don't like it,” Qing Zhui said with a frown.

Ning Tao said, “I don't like this place either. We will leave once business is done.”

Qing Zhui asked, “The rules as usual?”

Ning Tao smiled. “The rules as usual.”

Qing Zhui spat out her long tongue from between her cherry lips. She used her tongue to give her upper lip a complete lick. She seemed to have detected the odor of blood and liked that smell.

Bai Jing asked, “Brother-in-law, do you often visit such places?”

Ning Tao replied, “No, this is my first time. Do you often visit such places yourself?”

Bai Jing said, “This is my first time too.”

If these words were uttered by Qing Zhui, Ning Tao would not have doubted her. But since they came out of Bai Jing's mouth, he did not quite believe her.

Crew Cut and Golden Hair were ahead of them. They squeezed past a dance floor bustling with people and went up a staircase. Finally, they reached a booked room on the second floor.

In the room was seated a middle-aged man in his 40s. Behind him stood two burly bodyguards. When Ning Tao, Qing Zhui and Bai Jing entered the room, their malicious gaze landed on Ning Tao.

Crew Cut and Golden Hair both called out, “Brother Dong.”

The middle-aged man only nodded nonchalantly. His eyes shifted to Qing Zhui and they seemed to light up. Then he eyed Bai Jing standing behind Qing Zhui and a smile instantly appeared on his face. He welcomed them. “Please sit down, pretty girls. Don't stand. What would you like to drink?”

Qing Zhui and Bai Jing did not move. They merely stared at the middle-aged man.

Crew Cut introduced him. “This is our company boss, Pan Zhendong. Just call him Brother Dong. By the way, what are your names, pretty girls?”

Bai Jing said, “Alice.”

Qing Zhui thought for a while before saying, “Tang Zixian.”

Ning Tao could not help but give her a glance. He wondered to himself why she would want to impersonate Tang Zixian. Wouldn't it be better to call herself by some other name?

Pan Zhendong started to chuckle. “You girls are pretty and your names are also lovely. A… Ali…”

Bai Jing said, “Alice.”

Pan Zhendong smiled. “Please sit down, girls. What would you like to drink?”

Bai Jing and Qing Zhui glanced at Ning Tao at the same time.

Ning Tao nodded.

Only then did Bai Jing and Qing Zhui sit down on the sofa. If they had followed their temper, the five men inside this room would have been slain. But they must keep to Ning Tao's rules if they were keeping him company. So, whenever they encountered such problems, they would defer to Ning Tao by habit, or listen to his instructions.

Neither Crew Cut nor Golden Hair introduced Ning Tao.

Ning Tao gave a dry cough. He said, somewhat embarrassedly, “My name is Xia Lei. Hello, Brother Dong.”

Only now did Pan Zhendong give Ning Tao a direct glance. He said impatiently, “You two bring him out and give him a nice reception.”

Ning Tao was about to say something when Crew Cut grabbed his arm and pulled him out.

A cold light flashed across Qing Zhui's eyes.

But Bai Jing was smiling and grabbing Qing Zhui's hand. “Sister, we rarely have a chance to have fun outside. So let's have some beer or wine.”

This was why Qing Zhui had not reacted. She was by nature an impulsive girl. Bai Jing, on the other hand, was more mature and calmer. Their personalities complemented each other's.

Pan Zhendong picked up a bottle of whiskey and poured them a glass each. He was wearing a smile, but within his eyes was hidden a savage beast's gleam. “Where do you girls work?”

Bai Jing answered, “My sister and I have just arrived in Guan City. We're preparing to open a fashion shop…”

She was good at making up stories.

Crew Cut and Golden Hair brought Ning Tao to a lane behind the bar.

The lane was dark and humid, strewn with rubbish. It gave off a fetid smell.

Ning Tao asked, “What's the matter? Didn't we agree to have fun together? You let my two friends stay and brought me here instead. What do you want?”

Crew Cut sneered. “F**k you, are you really stupid, or just pretending?”

Ning Tao said, “I don't get what you mean.”

Golden Hair slapped a palm on the back of Ning Tao's head. “Let me ask you: what are those girls' relationship with you?”

Ning Tao answered honestly, “One of them is my girlfriend. The other is my girlfriend's elder sister.”

Crew Cut asked fiercely, “Which one is your girlfriend?”

Ning Tao answered, “The one in green. Why are you asking me this?”

Golden Hair said scornfully, “You really seem like an idiot. Let me tell you straight. Our boss likes your girlfriend and her sister. Our boss will make you a cuckold personally. You should feel honored.”

“You guys…” Ning Tao seemed very angry.

Crew Cut took out a knife and plunged it into the wall behind Ning Tao. He said fiercely, “One more word and I will stab you dead. You believe me?”

Ning Tao trembled, no longer daring to speak.

Crew Cut slapped another palm on Ning Tao's head and started guffawing. “What an idiot. When our boss has enjoyed himself, the two of us shall cuckold you as well.”

“Enough of these nonsenses. Boss has said: give him a nice reception and then dump him into the garbage pile,” Golden Hair said.

Crew Cut nodded. The expression in his eyes turned cold. In that very instant, he suddenly kneed Ning Tao at the crotch between his legs.

Thump!

A dull thump. Crew Cut's knee had hit Ning Tao's private parts brutally.

It was a vicious strike. The dull thump could be heard streets away.

But Ning Tao did not shriek, nor did he slump down, holding onto his crotch. He merely watched Crew Cut quietly, a bizarre smile hovering on his lips.
