Supreme Divine Physician in the City Chapter 1588: There’s Something Fishy, Definitely Something Fishy!

"No choice, huh." Xiao Zhiqing giggled, "So just agree with me, since resisting is futile. Why go against yourself?"

Ye Xuan shut his eyes in anguish.

Some say feelings develop with the passage of time. Whether this is true or not, Ye Xuan remains uncertain. Yet, after spending so much time in proximity, one undoubtedly gains an intimate understanding of another person, much like Xiao Zhiqing before him. A few months prior, she would never have been able to manipulate him so effortlessly.

What a curse, what a curse!

"I promise you, I promise, okay?"

As these words left his lips, Ye Xuan’s posture collapsed, and he seemed to melt into the sofa, lying there feebly. He stared at the ceiling, a profound sense of sadness and despair washing over him.

If this continues, I’m going to be devoured alive by the devil, Xiao Zhiqing!

That kind of devouring!

Witnessing Ye Xuan's eventual acquiescence, Xiao Zhiqing's face lit up. "A man's word is his bond; you gave me your promise, no backing out!"

Ye Xuan rolled his eyes weakly.

Ladies and gentlemen, she has me ensnared, so please, do not push it further, and I would be eternally grateful.

Ye Xuan waved his hand dismissively, "Just go, I desire some peace and quiet."

Xiao Zhiqing playfully stuck out her tongue. Though a bit reluctant, seeing that her efforts today had yielded significant results, she ceased pestering Ye Xuan and turned to depart.

As she reached the door, Xiao Zhiqing seemed to recall something and chirped, "Oh right, come over for dinner at my place tonight. I’ve been practicing my cooking, and it’s really good now!"

"We’ll see," Ye Xuan responded lifelessly.

"You must come!"

Xiao Zhiqing departed the office with a cheerful skip.

Once the door clicked shut, Ye Xuan, still reclining on the sofa, gradually adopted a twisted, sinister expression.

Want me to grace your cooking with my presence? In your wildest dreams!

Xiao Zhiqing, I shall remember today’s humiliation!

Hmph!

...

"Searching far and wide only to find it without any apparent effort, Xiao Zhiqing, you are truly exceptional!"

Returning to her assistant’s desk, Xiao Zhiqing reflected on her recent bold initiative with a surge of excitement, feeling it was a moment worth celebrating.

Ever since falling head over heels for the male god, and after pursuing him for so long, never before had a day been as fruitful as this one.

Xiao Zhiqing, you are not far from successfully capturing your handsome guy!

"Know your enemy and yourself, and you can win a hundred battles without a single loss!"

Amidst her elation, Xiao Zhiqing also cautioned herself to remain calm and not get carried away.

Therefore, she continued to analyze based on the knowledge she had acquired about Ye Xuan during their time together, ultimately concluding that he would absolutely not willingly come to dine at her residence.

But as the saying goes, to capture a man’s heart, one must first capture his stomach. His absence would simply not be acceptable.

I have been practicing diligently for so long!

After a period of contemplation.

"Got it!"

Xiao Zhiqing’s eyes sparkled, and a confident, joyful smile spread across her face.

...

As the sun dipped below the horizon, another workday drew to a close.

Ye Xuan stirred from his nap, realizing it was already time to leave. He swiftly rose and headed towards the parking lot, adjusting his mindset and shaking off the day’s unpleasant occurrences.

Xiao Zhiqing might be a devil, deserving of a thousand deaths, but life must continue; one cannot allow her to bring you down, can they?

The thought of the stunning beauties awaiting him at home, along with their adorable daughter, Xiaoyun Duo, significantly improved Ye Xuan’s mood.

Upon arriving at the parking lot, Ye Xuan’s face was alight with smiles.

Seeing Lin Tong and the others already waiting not too far away filled him with a sense of warmth.

"Hey..."

Ye Xuan stepped forward to greet them, but midway through, he was suddenly at a loss for words, his expression freezing, dark lines creasing his forehead.

Xiao Zhiqing!

Why was Xiao Zhiqing also present here?

It was not unusual for her to be in the parking lot.

After all, it was a shared parking facility for Eastern Group, and Xiao Zhiqing drove to work daily.

However, witnessing Xiao Zhiqing mingling joyously with Lin Tong and the others struck him as incredibly bizarre.

What was unfolding today?

Ye Xuan's expression turned to stone, and a growing sense of unease began to brew within him.

"There's something fishy here, undoubtedly suspicious!"

With a twitch of his mouth, Ye Xuan hurried over towards the group of women.

As he drew nearer, everything became clear, and all conversations became audible.

He observed Xiao Zhiqing, clad in a professional attire that was quite alluring, holding Lin Tong’s hand while acting flirtatiously. "CEO sister, we have an agreement, your family must come over to my place tonight!"

"Since we agreed, we will definitely come," Lin Tong responded with a graceful smile.

Xiao Zhiqing then turned her attention to Leng Qiuge, "Director Leng, you must accompany us too!"

Leng Qiuge heartily patted her chest, "Of course!"

Xiao Zhiqing looked towards Liu Ying.

Before she could even voice her request, Liu Ying chuckled, "Don't worry, we'll be there."

Chi Lian didn't even wait for Xiao Zhiqing to look her way and gave a dismissive glance as she stated, "We will come.""Then I’ll be waiting for you all!" Xiao Zhiqing’s eyes sparkled with joy as she entered her gleaming sports car and sped away. Ye Xuan stood there, completely bewildered. What in the world was that? Xiao Zhiqing, you’ve extended an invitation to my entire family for dinner; do I even have the option to refuse? With a determined expression, Ye Xuan quickly approached the women, demanding, "What's going on?" The women exchanged surprised glances, then confusion clouded their faces. "Going on about what?" Ye Xuan, running a hand through his hair in exasperation, blurted out, "Why did you all agree to her invitation?" "Agree to what?" Leng Qiuge inquired, her brow furrowed. Ye Xuan’s eyes widened. "To have dinner at her place, of course." Liu Ying sighed wearily. "It's just dinner. We live right next door; what's the big deal?" "It is a big deal," Ye Xuan insisted, his voice laced with agitation. "It's absolutely different!" How could he not be worried? It was, indeed, profoundly different! While it might seem like a mere meal in the immediate sense, from a broader perspective, this was Ye Xuan capitulating to malice. If he gave in this time, wouldn't Xiao Zhiqing's demands only escalate? Ye Xuan had never yielded before, yet this time, Xiao Zhiqing had pushed him to his absolute limit! Only Lin Tong seemed to grasp the depth of Ye Xuan’s inner turmoil. She cast a glance his way and, noticing someone approaching, stated firmly, "Let's discuss this in the car." Everyone piled into the vehicle. Chi Lian took the wheel, with Ye Xuan occupying the front passenger seat, his expression grim and sullen, as if he had endured a profound injustice. After a significant silence. Ye Xuan, as if finding a beacon of hope in the encroaching darkness, asked with a flicker of expectation, "Alright, since you've all agreed, then you go ahead. I'll stay home with Xiaoyun Duo." "No," Lin Tong replied calmly. "You and Xiaoyun Duo must come as well." Ye Xuan was taken aback. "Why?" "She extended the invitation to both you and Xiaoyun Duo," Lin Tong explained. Without a second thought, Ye Xuan declared, "I refuse." Lin Tong stated, "We've already given her our acceptance on your behalf." "What the actual heck?" Ye Xuan's eyes bulged, his entire demeanor suggesting he was on the verge of an explosive outburst.
