The Empress's Gigolo Chapter 394

"Sir, why are you looking for me?" The both of were sitting inside Ren Baqian's car, and Qi Jiayu's was a little apprehensive .

For a sophomore, the Ministry of State Security had many different meanings to her . As a result, she wasn't able to calm down . Ren Baqian turned his head to look at her and suppressed the killing intent in his heart .

Every time he saw her, he had the same reaction .

Previously, he thought of providing for her, but it seemed like that didn't make much sense now .

What was the use of providing for a person that he wanted to kill every time he saw her? Was it to hone his temperament? This was actually a pretty good idea . As he experienced more things, his killing intent increased too .

Perhaps this was what it meant for one to be influenced by his or her environment . It was inevitable for him to be affected by the empress and those aboriginal soldiers who faced life and death everyday .

There were also some things that inherently suppressed his natural instincts . Along with the breaking of moral constraints that had been instilled in him all this time, his killing intent began to develop .

All sorts of situation had formed his current temperament . At times, he was very calm, and other times, he was very benevolent . However, there were times when he wanted to kill someone just because of trivial issues or because they weren't pleasant to his eyes .

"Do you know this person?" Ren Baqian took out his phone and showed a photo to Qi Jiayu .

The person in the photo was bald, fierce looking, not wearing any shirt, and had a criss-crossed scar on his body . The background of the photo was a dense forest .

Just by looking at this person's photo, one could already feel the fierceness emitting from him .

"No…"Qi Jiayu shook her head .

Of course, Ren Baqian knew that she wouldn't recognize him . The person in the photo was Li Qianqiu, and Ren Baqian had taken this photo randomly .

It would be a big deal if Qi Jiayu knew who he was .

"How about this person?" Ren Baqian showed another person's photo .

It was a picture of a girl who was tied to the back of a cow, and the background was also the wilderness . "I don't know this person either…" Qi Jiayu was at a loss as she didn't know what Ren Baqian's intention was .

"Remember their faces . If you see the two of them, please contact me," Ren Baqian said as he put away his phone .

"Oh!" Qi Jiayu was unclear of the reason, but she still nodded her head . She didn't know why Ren Baqian believed that she would run into these two people .

Of course, she wouldn't run into the two of them . Ren Baqian was only using this as an excuse . All in all, he couldn't remain silent after calling her to get into his car, right?

"You will meet them eventually, but we do not need to go into the specifics . You only need to inform me when the time arrives . " Ren Baqian was feeling vexed as, on the one hand, he had to suppressed his killing intent, but on the other hand, he had to fabricate lies .

Even though fabricating lies had already become a habit, he was still feeling vexed .

What made him even more vexed was the appearance of this person . "You can get out of the car now . When people ask about what happened…" Ren Baqian muttered to himself . He could predict that certain people would definitely inquire about what he had told her . "Just tell them…" All of a sudden, Ren Baqian turned his head and asked, "Is ten million yuan sufficient to keep you?"

"Ha? My apologies, I'm a decent person, and I deserve someone better . " Qi Jiayu subconsciously rejected him .

"Yes, that's it . If anyone asks about our conversation, you can just mention this . Even though they are from the same department as me, we are from different sections . The meaning of this sentence is understood by insiders and indicates that you are the person that I have selected . You'll have to swallow anything related to these photos and everything I have asked you into your stomach . Before this issue is resolved, you can't let anyone know about it . You should know the importance of secrecy for anything related to the nation's secret department . Don't create any trouble for yourself or me . " Ren Baqian waved her off and concluded, "That's all . Remember to say what I have instructed you to say . "

"Oh!" Up until now, Qi Jiayu was still dumbfounded . She still completely didn't know what was going on .

"Why do I have to do all this?" Qi Jiayu finally recalled this question .

"You have no room for refusal . In addition, if you do this, I will help you to apply for funding in your school activities . " After Ren Baqian drove off, she stood in the carpark and stared into blank space for a long time .

For an ordinary female sophomore, she simply didn't know what to even consider after having met with such problems out of the blue . In addition, there wasn't anybody that she could discuss these problems with .

However, if someone really wanted to keep her for ten million yuan, would she agree? Ten million yuan was a sum that she might never obtain even if she worked for her entire life . The thought of it was really tempting .

Unfortunately, this offer wasn't real .

"You are Qi Jiayu, right? We have a few questions to ask you . " Three men walked up to Qi Jiayu .

They were the three men who were on the campus just now, and it seemed that they knew the guy whose surname was Ren . Furthermore, they were in the same department . As such, Qi Jiayu could recognize them at a glance .

"What's the problem?"

"What did that Mr . Ren talk to you about?" one of them asked .

Qi Jiayu immediately recalled Ren Baqian's words and said with a bashful look on her face, "He asked if he could keep me for Ten million yuan . "

"How did you answer him?"

"My apologies, I'm a decent person, and I deserve someone better," Qi Jiayu said .

The three of them looked at Qi Jiayu . This way of rejecting someone was indeed rarely seen .

"Did he say anything else?"

"He didn't say anything else and let me out of his car . "

"If you run into any problems in the future, call this number . " A man took out a pen and a small book, then wrote a phone number before passing it to Qi Jiayu . "What do you mean?"

"In the future, if you are in danger or in trouble, you can call this number . ""I will run into danger?" Qi Jiayu was astonished .

"Humans will always be in danger . Everyone faces the risk of being hit by a car on the road," said the man as he made an ambiguous statement . "Sorry to have bothered you . " After the three men left, Qi Jiayu held the paper with the phone number and thought about the two photos that Ren Baqian had shown her . Ren Baqian said that she would run into these people, and the other agents said that she would run into danger . What exactly did all of this mean?

The two people in the photos were very dangerous?

…

After Ren Baqian left Qi Jiayu, the killing intent in his heart vanished gradually .

This kind of feeling where he wanted to kill someone, yet had to restrain himself, wasn't comfortable at all . He made a call home, chatted for a while with his family members, and finally felt at ease .

Nowadays, his family had accepted the situation that they couldn't see him all year round . However, they were still concerned about his marriage . Every time they talked over the phone, they didn't forget to inquire about the girl they saw or ask him when he would bring her home . In Ren Baqian's mind, the thought of bringing these "counterfeit goods" back to meet his parents emerged .

However, just as that thought emerged in his head, Ren Baqian dismissed it . In the future, if the empress met his parents and learned that he had actually brought another girl who looked like her back home, he reckoned that he would be in deep sh*t . The next two days, he stayed in the villa and stared into empty space .

Although Yang Sen said that there was progress in the research, Ren Baqian was not in the mood to make a trip there .

After staying in the villa for two days, he took a batch of radios, walkie-talkies, batteries, and solar panels back to the other world . The other world still lacked a lot of these items .

Before technology was developed, it was necessary to popularize instant messaging . He left Pingle Park and went to meet the empress .

Seeing that almost half of the candy tree in the hall was empty, Ren Baqian felt that if it wasn't for the fact that aboriginals were strong, the empress would have long since gotten a toothache from consuming candies this way .

Fortunately, the empress was also extremely strong, so strong that even ordinary swords couldn't hurt her . If the empress had a toothache, she might be even more dangerous than an alligator during a check-up . After making cotton candy and refilling the candy tree, Ren Baqian brought two large cotton candies and sat on the sofa . He handed over one of them to the empress .

"These past few days, I met someone that resembles Your Majesty . I almost thought that she was you . This world is indeed magical, and there is actually someone that looks so similar to you . " Ren Baqian took a mouthful of the cotton candy and laughed .

"Oh? I want to see if she really resembles me . " The empress was very interested in meeting her doppelganger .

"The next time we return to Earth, follow me to take a look . " Ren Baqian smiled .

A few minutes later, Ren Baqian realized something strange . The empress actually took one bite of the cotton candy, but didn't continue eating it . Instead, she sat there quietly and watched the television series that was playing on the laptop . With the empress's love of sweets, this kind of situation was really rare . "Your Majesty, why aren't you eating?"

The empress turned to look at Ren Baqian . After some time, she finally spoke unhurriedly, "I'm not sure why, but I have a toothache! I don't have any appetite!"

Whenever the empress felt pain, she wouldn't behave like an ordinary girl that put on a pitiful expression . Thus, nobody would know that she was in pain if she didn't mention anything .

Ren Baqian exclaimed, "Ah?!"

Chapter 395: I Need to Make a Trip to the Hospital

The empress having a toothache was a big issue .

"Is the cause of the toothache really due to eating sweet food?" Ren Baqian wasn't sure . He had thought about this before, but could his prognosis be that accurate?

The skin of the empress couldn't even be hurt by a sword, so he found it hard to believe that her teeth could decay .

"Your Majesty, can you open your mouth to let your humble servant take a look?" Ren Baqian asked .

The empress glared at him .

There was no way she would open her mouth to let him take a look .

"It doesn't matter," the empress said faintly .

"Although the pain is unbearable, a toothache isn't a disease . If there's tooth decay, Your Majesty should perhaps eat less sweet stuff in the future," Ren Baqian advised .

The empress raised her eyebrows upon hearing the advice to eat less sweet stuff and squinted at Ren Baqian . Her look conveyed the warning of retaliation if he didn't explain himself clearly .

"Your Majesty, if you continue to eat sweet food despite the toothache, it will lead to periodontitis . " Ren Baqian looked at the posture of the empress and didn't know whether to laugh or cry .

"I already said it doesn't matter . " The empress ignored him .

"How about letting the doctors from the clinic take a look?" Ren Baqian asked .

No matter what, a disease must be treated and not simply endured .

"Hong Luan, summon the doctors and inform them of my toothache," the empress said after some consideration .

Not long after, three people of advanced age from the clinic arrived at the palace .

It looked like the older doctors were considered more experienced and that this was the same in every world .

After paying their respects, one of them stepped forward to take her pulse .

Ren Baqian couldn't resist asking, "Can you diagnose a toothache by checking one's pulse?"

"You are too noisy . " The empress stared at him . He had no choice but to shut his mouth and stand aside quietly .

"Which tooth is hurting, Your Majesty?"

The empress pointed to one of her cheeks .

"Please open your mouth and let your humble servant take a look at your teeth," that doctor said after feeling her pulse for a long time .

"I am alright now . Please take your leave . " The empress waved her hands .

"Your Majesty!" Ren Baqian grimaced . What was so difficult about having a tooth examined?

"Your Majesty, it's better to check because problems concerning teeth are not trivial . It will be serious if it affects your appetite," the doctor concurred .

The empress frowned for a long time before opening her mouth slightly .

That doctor didn't dare to get too close and couldn't see the problem after peering for quite a while .

"Your Majesty, your humble servant is incompetent," that physician apologized and retreated a few steps .

Another doctor came to take a look .

All three doctors couldn't figure out the problem with her teeth .

Finally, the empress was given brewed medicine to stop the pain and inflammation .

The medical achievements of this world were great in certain areas, for example, the black mud cream . However, this world was very backward as far as dentistry was concerned .

In fact, this wasn't only the case in this world, it was the same with the ancient civilizations on Earth .

Many well-known figures were beset with dental problems .

Some used a string tied between their tooth and an arrow and drew the bow to shoot the arrow along with their tooth .

Others tied a string to their tooth on one end and tied the other end to a door . Then, they opened and closed the door . Swoosh . The tooth was gone .

It looked very simple, but the risks were great and could lead to other problems .

In the case of Wen Jiao, a famous general in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, he extracted his decayed tooth, suffered a stroke, and was dead after ten days; a sort of murder case linked to a tooth .

Therefore, many people adopted the waiting method, which was to get used to the pain and wait until the tooth fell out .

Lu You, of the Southern Song Dynasty, waited as he wrote his diary .

A disease which is not really a disease that paralyzes the arm . A cary is hard to keep

---"Dental Diseases"

I seem to have a tooth that is about to fall out .

One tooth will fall and both eyes are misty .

---" Lao Tan"

[Lao Tan: a Southern Song dynasty historian]

Another tooth seem to be falling .

Teeth are falling out and yet still able to chew, lame and still able to walk

--- A verse from "Toast the Wine"

Let it drop, you can still eat after it drops .

Bald, toothless, and thick-skinned, now is the time to eat mushy food with a spoon .

---"Chu Gui Za Yong"

[Song dynasty poem]

Damn, it really was impossible to eat .

It could be deduced from the diary of Lu You that dental problems were really troublesome for the ancient civilizations .

The empress couldn't resist eating sweets again after taking the medicine . A short while later, she had no choice but to stop eating .

Although she had taken painkillers, the intense pain started again after eating sweets .

The empress was a little moody because she was unable to eat sweets and didn't even feel like watching television series . She just laid on the bed in a daze .

The empress was simply restless .

"Your Majesty, we can go to Earth in two days . The dentists there are more experienced and specialize in taking care of teeth . " Ren Baqian couldn't help saying this after seeing the empress in this state .

The empress kept quiet .

She finally realized the seriousness of this problem; not eating sweets was giving her more of a problem than the attack by Great Xia .

To Ren Baqian, her silence indicated consent .

"Move the candy tree away in a little while," Ren Baqian ordered . This was to prevent the empress from thinking about eating candy when she saw the tree .

"No way!" The empress sat up on her couch and glared at Ren Baqian . That candy tree was like a treasure to her, and she wouldn't let anyone get away lightly if they dared to touch it .

When Ren Baqian saw her glaring at him like a tigress, he spread his hands helplessly .

Two days later, Ren Baqian and the empress returned to Earth again .

The empress changed her clothes and sat down on the sofa with an ice-cream in her hand, but after two mouthfuls, she couldn't continue eating .

Previously, she didn't feel uncomfortable when eating cold food, but it was different this time .

"Your Majesty, let's go . It is time to visit the dentist . " Ren Baqian went downstairs after changing his clothes .

After the two of them got in the car, Ren Baqian followed the route to the dentist as shown by the map downloaded on his phone .

The empress was still downcast .

Although the empress usually didn't say much, Ren Baqain was still able to notice whether she was in a normal or low state .

"You will be fine after visiting the dentist," Ren Baqian tried to console her .

Upon reaching the dental clinic, they registered, took a number, and waited for their turn .

The female dentist was in her thirties, and her eye flickered slightly after seeing the empress .

"Do you have any medical history?"

"No . "

"What's the issue?" the dentist asked casually .

"She has a toothache . It should be somewhere here . " Ren Baqian said as he pointed to his own face to show the location where the empress felt pain .

"Is she sick or are you the sick one? Speak for yourself . What's the problem and where's the pain?" the dentist retorted impatiently .

Ren Baqian frowned at the bad attitude of this dentist .

"Hurry up, there are many patients waiting," the dentist said with dissatisfaction .

"Oh!" The empress snickered and raised her eyebrows .

She hadn't met anyone who talked to her like this in many years .

The toothache was already giving her the jitters, yet she met this oblivious person .

"I think there's nothing wrong with you . Next patient . " The dentist glanced at them and then looked behind .

"Oh, oh!" Ren Baqian laughed softly and put his gun on the table with the muzzle pointed at the dentist .

Violence couldn't solve all problems, but it could solve most of them . He was convinced of this statement now . At least it could make this rude dentist come down from her high horse .

The gun clattered on the table, and the dentist's face changed . "You better leave as soon as possible . I am calling the police . "

The empress turned to look at Ren Baqian with a searching look . She only had one intention .

Can we kill her?

It was just his luck to encounter such a rude and oblivious dentist . Would it kill her to have a better attitude?

"Please do as you wish . You can report to the police," Ren Baqian said casually .

Before his voice died down, the empress took the gun and used her finger to pull the trigger .

She had seen Ren Baqian use it many times before .

It wasn't worth her while to dirty her hand against this type of person, so this little weapon from Ren Baqian was appropriate .

"Why isn't there any sound?" The empress gave Ren Baqian a puzzled look after pulling the trigger . She had seen Ren Baqian use it this way before .

Ren Baqian was speechless .

"The safety catch wasn't released," said Ren Baqian as he released the safety and put the gun back on the table .

The dentist was frightened by their actions and said shakily, "Sorry, I might have offended you earlier . There are too many patients, so I was anxious . I apologize . "

Boom! The empress fired a shot at her . A hole appeared on the glass panel behind her and a spider web of cracks filled the area around the hole .

"So, this is the way to use it . " The empress was enlightened . She aimed the gun at the dentist and fired another shot .

Boom!

The other patients waiting to see the dentist were stunned, then dashed outside yelling "murder!" as they ran .

Nobody expected to encounter such an incident when visiting a dentist .

That dentist was already lying on the floor as the second shot from the empress brushed past her ear .

"This thing isn't easy to use . " The empress carelessly threw the gun to Ren Baqian .

Thump! As Ren Baqian caught the gun with his hand, his face was full of agony .

He looked down at his legs . His pants were stained with blood, and the wound was painful . It was so painful that his legs were shaking .

"Zixiao…" Ren Baqian spoke and then stopped…

"What's the matter with you?" The empress was wondering how Ren Baqian had managed to shoot himself .

She wasn't proficient with guns and didn't even have much of a concept, let alone understand what misfire was .

"I think I need to make a trip to the hospital…" Ren Baqian indistinctly sighed .
