Divine Doctor's Harem

Chapter 486 Taking The Initiative



Xiaoqinggan!

The taste was rich and mellow, with a hint of fruity fragrance and sweetness, as well as the deep and mellow flavor of Pu-erh tea. Ever since she saw Shen Bing and Wang Chao drinking this type of tea last time, she had developed a liking for it. Now, even if she had hundreds of thousands of tea leaves in front of her, she would still choose Xiaoqinggan.

"I'm not angry," Shen Bing said, quickly suppressing her annoyance and forcing a somewhat awkward smile when she saw Zhao Liying.

"Don't worry, Wang Chao has a sense of propriety. Even if he has a date with another woman, he won't cross the line," Zhao Liying smiled.

Shen Bing's face turned slightly red upon hearing her words and she said, "Who said I was thinking about him?"

"You might be able to hide other concerns, but when it comes to Wang Chao, it's written all over your face," Zhao Liying laughed.

Since Zhao Liying hadn't found a place to stay in Canton City yet and Shen Bing lacked a close personal bodyguard, she decided to move in and live with Shen Bing for the time being.

She initially thought Shen Bing was looking at company reports and worrying about the future of the company. But then she noticed that Shen Bing's gaze wasn't even on the reports; she seemed lost in thought, her expression shifting from anger to unhappiness, and then to deep sorrow. Shen Bing also glanced at her own figure from time to time.

ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm All these behaviors were enough to indicate that Shen Bing was thinking about men, like a young girl experiencing the first stirrings of love, wearing her heart on her sleeve.

That's why Zhao Liying brewed a pot of tea and came to talk with Shen Bing about her concerns.

"I...," Shen Bing's face grew even redder.

It was embarrassing for her secret to be exposed!

"In fact, both of you have feelings for each other, but Wang Chao has been through so much. He probably won't be easily moved or reveal his feelings so quickly," Zhao Liying said after taking a sip of tea.

"So, if you really want to be with Wang Chao, there's only one way," Shen Bing hurriedly asked.

"What way?" Shen Bing asked eagerly.

Setting down her teacup, Zhao Liying stared into Shen Bing's eyes and said slowly, "It's simple: take the initiative!"

"Take the initiative?" Shen Bing was taken aback.

"Yes, take the initiative! Wang Chao is a responsible man. Basically, if you engage in that kind of relationship with him, he will definitely take responsibility for you."

"But, if I take the initiative, will he think I'm a promiscuous woman?"

"If you were a promiscuous woman, how could you still be a virgin?"

"Ah? How... how do you know?" Shen Bing's expression changed, her face becoming even redder, as she looked at Zhao Liying in disbelief.

She had never told anyone that she was a virgin.

How did Zhao Liying figure it out?

Zhao Liying glanced at her and said, "A beautiful woman like you, who is used to being strong and domineering, would probably drive away anyone who tried to pursue you. So, you've probably never been in a relationship."

"Since you've never been in a relationship, it's natural that you're still a virgin."

With a slight smile, Zhao Liying said, "With your current status as a virgin, if you take the initiative and win over Wang Chao, I guarantee that he will stay by your side for the rest of his life!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Bing's eyes flickered, and she felt a slight temptation.

Taking the initiative and winning over Wang Chao!

It was a good option!

If she could really carry out this plan, Wang Chao would stay by her side forever. Not only would she have an ideal partner in marriage, but she would also gain a powerful ally in her career.

With that, she would surely achieve success in both her career and love life.

"I need to come up with a good plan to see how I can win him over," Shen Bing pondered in her mind.

As she contemplated, she couldn't help but smile foolishly while sipping her tea.

Seeing Shen Bing like this, Zhao Liying couldn't help but find it amusing.

It seemed that no matter where they were or what experiences they had, women always retained a sense of youthfulness.

"Do women really need men to live?" Zhao Liying wondered to herself.

After her family was annihilated, she had thrown away all thoughts of love and devoted herself to becoming stronger, seeking revenge. 

Now that she had achieved her revenge, she felt that she needed to live her own life, on her own terms. And as she contemplated living her own life, the first thing she wanted to do was find a man to be in a relationship with.

Could it be that seeking love was an instinctual desire inherent in women?

"Regardless of whether one is male or female, life shouldn't be like this. It shouldn't revolve solely around love. It's best to follow one's own heart and live happily," Zhao Liying shook her head, contemplating silently.

With that thought in mind, she took another sip of tea.

Although Xiaoqinggan wasn't a rare and precious tea, it was quite delicious. It felt more like drinking a beverage than tea.

While Shen Bing was contemplating how to win over Wang Chao, a phone call from Shen Tianhuan came in.

 

           

 

         

Shen Bing frowned.

It was already late at night, so there must be something important for Shen Tianhuan to call her.

After thinking for a moment, she answered the call, "Grandfather."

"Ice, do you have time tomorrow?" Shen Tianhuan's kind voice came through the phone.

Shen Bing glanced at her schedule on her phone and said, "I have a two-hour window tomorrow afternoon. Grandfather, is there something you need?"

"Two hours? That's enough. Ice, tomorrow my sworn brother is returning from the foreign battlefield, and I'd like to invite him for a meal. I desire you to come as well," Shen Tianhuan said.

Shen Bing pondered for a moment.

Before she could respond, Shen Tianhuan continued, "This sworn brother of mine has been a great help to our Shen family. It was because of him that our family rose to prominence."

"So, when he visits Canton City, we must show him respect on behalf of the Shen family."

"One must not forget gratitude and responsibility. As a member of the younger generation, you should also pay your respects properly."

With the conversation reaching this point, Shen Bing felt somewhat helpless and could only say, "Alright, I have a two-hour window from 4 to 6 p.m. tomorrow. After 6 p.m., I have an important meeting."

"Good, let's meet during that time. I'll send you the details of the dinner location tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, Shen Tianhuan's voice was filled with joy.

Shen Bing hung up the phone, her brows slightly furrowed. She had a sense of foreboding, a feeling that something wasn't right.

However, she didn't dwell on it. After all, it was just a dinner to maintain relationships and connections. She had experienced countless similar occasions.

So, she didn't let it bother her and continued to chat and discuss with Zhao Liying how to win over Wang Chao.

To her, winning over Wang Chao was her top priority!

At the same time, she kept asking about Wang Chao's past, whether he had any stories, what kind of women he had encountered, and so on.

Zhao Liying didn't think much of it and shared all her knowledge about Wang Chao.

"So, you're saying Brother Wang used to be a mercenary? He was even captured and tortured in a place called the Demon's Abyss?" Shen Bing's expression changed slightly as she listened to Zhao Liying's description.

"Yes, he was just an ordinary person before. He faced death multiple times in the Demon's Abyss. It was only step by step that he went from an ordinary person to his current achievements," Zhao Liying nodded.

As she spoke, admiration filled her eyes.

To be honest, her experiences were somewhat similar to Wang Chao's.

Her family was killed, leaving her burdened with endless hatred. She had tasted pain and fought in street brawls, giving her all to kill a thug and seize food like a wild dog.

It was because of this that a killer in the Gates of Hell saw her potential and took her as his disciple, bringing her into the secret training of the killer organization.

Although she faced life-threatening situations, it was only after a certain level of training that she encountered life-or-death trials.

But Wang Chao faced constant danger in the Demon's Abyss, locked in a cage, at risk of being killed at any moment.

Moreover, it was said that the Lord of the Demon's Abyss was a particularly cruel and sadistic person with an eerie and brutal manner.

That person often released some of the captives from the Demon's Abyss, allowing them to fight and slaughter each other.

As far as she knew, Wang Chao had participated in three or four of these large-scale battles.

What was even more terrifying was that aside from some old, weak, sick, and disabled people, there were also some extremely cunning individuals among the captives who would do anything to prolong their own lives, even framing and accusing other slaves.

A few slaves were even killed in their sleep inside the cages.

It was easy to imagine that Wang Chao faced much more difficult circumstances than she did, constantly on guard day and night, even sleep was a problem, and the slightest carelessness could result in death.

For Wang Chao to survive in that place, waiting for rescue, was already remarkable.

Every time she thought about this, she felt genuine admiration and respect for Wang Chao.

"You've seen the scars on Wang Chao's body, right? Those life-threatening wounds close to his heart, they're evidence of the pain and despair he endured in the Demon's Abyss," Zhao Liying said.

Upon hearing this, Shen Bing immediately covered her mouth, her eyes turning red as tears welled up.

She had seen the various scars on Wang Chao's body before, always thinking they're from his experiences in war.

But she never imagined that they're the result of Wang Chao's struggles in life and death.

Thinking about it, her admiration and awe for Wang Chao turned into concern and heartache.

Although she had lost her parents, she had been pampered since childhood and rarely experienced any injuries. Even when she scraped her skin, it felt especially painful.

Yet Wang Chao had so many scars on his body. It was easy to imagine how much pain he had endured with each injury and how difficult it had been for him.

At this moment, she really wanted to find Wang Chao again, touch every scar on his body, and soothe his pain.
