Divine Doctor's Harem

Chapter 243 Before The Negotiation

?

Yang Mi looked at the protective amulet and thought for a moment before replying to Liu Shishi, "Okay, what time tomorrow?"

"9 o'clock in the morning. I'll come to the set to pick you up," Liu Shishi replied immediately.

"Alright, I'll go read the script first. See you tomorrow."

After replying, Yang Mi put down her phone and started reading the script.

It wasn't long before her phone vibrated again.

"This should be from Wang Chao, right?"

Yang Mi's eyes lit up, and she immediately picked up her phone to check.

However, once again, she was disappointed.

The call was from Liu Shishi.

She answered the call, "Shishi, what's wrong again?"

"Wuwuwu, Honey, you're just too good to me. After this incident, many people are scared and won't come near me. They even refuse to answer my calls. But you've always been the best to me."

Liu Shishi's sad and tearful voice came through, clearly filled with fear.

"We're good sisters, don't cry."

"But tonight, I dare not sleep in my hotel anymore. Can I come to your place to sleep?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Mi's expression changed.

If Liu Shishi, who was being haunted by something unclean, came to stay with her, wouldn't that thing also follow?

Could it potentially cause harm to her as well?

To be honest, Yang Mi felt anxious and fearful about such things.

However, she didn't remain silent for long and quickly regained her composure, saying, "Okay, do you want me to come and pick you up?"

"That's great! Wuwuwu, Honey, you're truly amazing. Love you! I'll come over soon."

Liu Shishi was overjoyed and hung up the phone.

Yang Mi sighed and felt a mix of anxiety and unease.

She looked at the protective amulet given by Wang Chao and thought, "Baby, I'm counting on you tonight!"

At that moment, she saw a message from Wang Chao on her phone, and her eyes brightened as she picked it up to read.

Wang Chao indeed replied, but with just two words: "No time."

"Stingy with words, dummy!" Yang Mi pouted, feeling dissatisfied.

In the security department of Danfeng Group, Wang Chao ended the call and continued typing.

Tonight, he had a negotiation with the Zhao family and Lafayette to resolve the situation with Cui Hong. How could he find time to have dinner with Yang Mi?

Besides, Yang Mi had posted his photos all over the internet, causing a huge uproar and putting him in the spotlight.

If he were to go out to dinner with Yang Mi now and get caught by the paparazzi, he would definitely become famous.

"Let the celebrities handle the fame game. I don't need it," Wang Chao muttered to himself.

He was already content living a normal life here.

Moreover, he didn't know what task his master had assigned to him. If his life became the subject of intense media coverage and drew significant attention, it would ruin his mission.

His identity would become more widely known, increasing the risk of exposure.

For a mercenary about to undertake a mission, that was not good!

So, he directly declined Yang Mi's dinner invitation.

When Wang Chao finished writing the training manual, it was already time to leave work.

He stretched and took a sip of tea before leaving his office.

For security reasons, he decided to inspect the entire Danfeng Group, from the CEO's office to the warehouse and parking lot. He carefully checked everything to ensure there were no problems.

Once he was certain that everything was in order, he left work and headed home.

While driving, Shen Bing approached him and said in a serious tone, "Do you want to go alone secretly?"

Zhang Long stood behind Shen Bing and frowned, "Mr. Wang, you are our Shen family's savior. How can you face such a powerful figure alone?"

Without hesitation, Shen Bing opened the car door and got into Wang Chao's BMW, assertively saying, "Drive!"

Zhang Long also got in and said calmly, "Mr. Wang, tonight is supposed to be a negotiation, but it might turn out to be a trap."

"With Lafayette's personality, he would not easily back down."

"The Drunken Immortal Tower is a dangerous place. There's a good chance you could end up dead there. So President Shen thinks it's safer for us to accompany you."

Wang Chao smiled bitterly and said, "I know you are concerned about me, but right now I'm not going for a negotiation. I just desire to meet my friend."

Their friendship touched him.

However, there were still four hours until the negotiation. Why should these two follow him?

"Before the negotiation, Zhang Big Brother and I'll protect your safety," Shen Bing asserted.

Helpless, Wang Chao had no choice but to let them stay and sit in the car. He took the driver's seat, started the car, and drove towards Zhao Family Village.

After about half an hour, the three of them arrived at Zhao Family Village.

Wang Chao parked the car and went to Pei Donghu's house, only to find that Pei Donghu was not there.

Song Henian was also at Pei Donghu's house. When he saw Wang Chao's arrival, he immediately pointed upstairs and said, "Upstairs."

Wang Chao went up to the rooftop and saw Pei Donghu and Lan Ruyu sitting side by side, leaning against each other with their backs to him and facing the setting sun.

The evening sun cast a warm glow on them, elongating their silhouettes.

Their hands were tightly clasped together.

It was a picturesque scene.

Upon seeing them like that, Wang Chao decided not to say anything and returned downstairs.

He checked the time; it was 7 p.m.

The negotiation was scheduled for 9 p.m., giving him two hours to prepare.

However, he did not have the heart to disturb the tender embrace of Lan Ruyu and Pei Donghu.

They lived for each other, especially Lan Ruyu, who had endured humiliation and suffering over the years in order to protect Pei Donghu's life.

Now, they had finally found happiness together. Wang Chao genuinely felt happy for them.

Song Henian approached, about to ask a question, but Wang Chao glanced at him and said, "Brother Nian, get ready. We'll be leaving in an hour."

"Where are we going?" Song Henian asked, confused.

"Of course, we're going to negotiate with Lafayette. This time, both of you're the main characters and must attend," Wang Chao replied.

Song Henian's expression changed.

Negotiating with Lafayette was something he had never dared to imagine before.

Now, being asked to confront Lafayette directly, he did not have the courage for it.

Moreover, Lafayette was always concerned about his image. Wang Chao had made a big fuss and cornered Cui Hong, satisfying their anger. But such an act was like a slap in Lafayette's face!

For someone as dominant as Lafayette to agree to negotiate with Zhao Dong, it indicated that tonight's negotiation would be extremely dangerous, possibly even bloody.

If Wang Chao went, he might be killed by Lafayette's men!

Song Henian struggled with his thoughts and then looked at Wang Chao. After gritting his teeth, he said, "Alright, wait for me. I'll go with you."

Indeed, Wang Chao had stood up for them, and Pei Donghu had just reconciled with his wife. They're enjoying their happy days together.

As one of the victims of the incident back then, he felt obligated to go.

If he did not go, not only would Wang Chao be unable to step down, but his life might also be in danger.

So, for Wang Chao's sake, even in the face of the towering Lafayette, he had to go. At the very least, he could shield Wang Chao and protect his life.

"I'm going too!"

Just then, Pei Donghu's voice came from upstairs.

Supported by Lan Ruyu, he held onto the stair railing, limping down slowly with bright and determined eyes. He said, "Wang Chao, you've done so much for us."

"Now, at this crucial moment, how can I not be by your side?"

"I'm going with you." Lan Ruyu also spoke firmly.
