Tomb Raider: I Am Hu Bayi's Cousin

Chapter 587 Hu Ming's Headache

Liang Wan felt like she had had absolutely the worst luck these past few days!
Since she met her boyfriend, who would never grow old, ten years ago, Liang Wan felt like she had reached the pinnacle of her life.

Through my boyfriend, I witnessed a mysterious world that I had only ever imagined before, and saw some completely unscientific existences.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that her incredibly long-lived, 100-year-old, gentle and considerate boyfriend is like that ageless monster who left China three years ago and is even more handsome than her boyfriend.

It's a pity that this handsome guy is too much of a womanizer and a total jerk! But thanks to his help, I was able to win over my current boyfriend!
Over the course of ten years, Liang Wan graduated from medical school with excellent grades. With the help of her boyfriend's extensive network of connections and her own outstanding abilities, she secured a job at Peking Union Medical College Hospital in Beijing as a recent graduate.

Thanks to her talent, hard work, and the help of her boyfriend, Liang Wan has already secured a position as the head of surgery at a young age.

Just last night, when Liang Wan was on night duty, the department received a high school student with traumatic eyes.

This high school student's youthful face is actually quite handsome, with a wild and unruly quality that gives him the look of a little wolfhound ready to bite at any moment.

If she didn't have this charming boyfriend now, she probably would have fallen for him, right? Liang Wan doesn't care about age at all.

It's really strange that a high school student had a cut on his back. I heard that the perpetrator also died next to the unconscious high school student.

It was a strange case, but Liang Wan had seen far too many strange and unusual things these days, so she was too lazy to think about it too much.

We simply treated the high school student's wound according to the prescribed procedures.

Tonight, while I was visiting that high school student as usual, Liang Wan collapsed!
She fell for a man named Wang Meng, who looked like a cute little puppy!
Liang Wan initially thought Wang Meng was quite handsome, and when she couldn't resist striking up a conversation with him, she never expected that the man would use a stun gun to knock her unconscious!!!
"Damn it! What 'little puppy'? He's clearly a clueless jerk! That kind of person is destined to be single for life, how could he be so cruel to a beautiful woman like me!"

"Um, is this my house? Wang Meng? Li Cu, what are you doing in my house? And who are you?"

As soon as she broke free from the darkness and regained consciousness, Liang Wan clutched her still-stingling neck and couldn't help but curse under her breath.

The moment Liang Wan opened her eyes, she realized she had returned home from the hospital, and there were three men in front of her. She recognized two of them, and a stranger was cooking at her stove…

Making stinky tofu?
This man is quite handsome!
It's that kind of weathered, middle-aged man's handsomeness!
Seeing the man turn his head, Liang Wan nodded repeatedly in her heart.

Wait, now is not the time to talk about this!
"Who are you? What do you want? Let me tell you, my boyfriend is super strong, believe me or not, I'll have him beat you up!"

Liang Wan suddenly remembered her current situation, tugged at her white coat, and belatedly screamed in fear.

"Big sister, you're really perceptive!"

With bandages wrapped around his body and a pale face, Li Chu forced down his panic and couldn't help but complain about Liang Wan's performance as a doctor.

Is this petite doctor slow-witted?
"hehe…"

Liang Wan gave a bitter laugh, her face pale. "Is it wrong for me to like looking at handsome men?"
You stinky men still like to stare at pretty women on the street, don't you?
"Hmph, that sound. Quiet down for a bit, Dr. Liang. I mean you no harm, I just need your help with some small things."

"You've woken up just in time. This is authentic Changsha stinky tofu that I just made. Try it, it's perfectly seasoned and has a wonderfully crisp and refreshing taste!"

"But speaking of which, you women are really troublesome. I really don't know how Uncle Ming deals with all those troublesome women around him..."

The weathered man, who believed he would never be with a woman in his life, grinned and picked at his ear, then placed a plate of freshly made black stinky tofu on the coffee table and warmly invited her over.

Is it poisonous? How should I know? Aren't you a doctor? Why are you asking me?
Liang Wan and Li Cu exchanged a glance, their eyes blinking rapidly. In that instant, they almost achieved perfect harmony. "Eat!"

Watching the interaction between the two, Wang Meng sighed, placed the plate next to them, and emphasized her words.

"Eat, eat, eat now!"

Liang Wan and Li Cu instinctively shivered and responded repeatedly, their voices trembling with tears.

Trembling as they carefully skewered the stinky tofu with toothpicks, the two were practically in tears; they had no appetite for tasting it at all.
"Wang Meng, go and take care of things at the hospital tomorrow."

"understood."

Under Wang Meng's slightly worried gaze, the weathered-looking Wu Xie lit a cigarette, ignoring the two's behavior, and gave instructions on his own.

"Is it delicious?"

Seeing the two looking like they were chewing wax, with long faces, Wu Xie almost burst out laughing.

"Swallowed it!"

Wu Xie gave the order with a smile.

Who is he? He's now an even more cunning old fox than Wu Sansheng. How could he not see that these two are just chewing on things without actually swallowing them?
What a waste!
Just as the two men steeled themselves to swallow the poison, suddenly, the door was opened from the outside!
"Second Master, Second Master, please wait! The boss is inside dealing with some matters! Could you please let me in to inform him?"

"Bullshit! I came here because of what he's handling. Damn it, I was just saying Wu Xie has matured a lot in the past few years, and now he doesn't even do his research beforehand? He's such a grown man, yet he's so reckless!"

As the sound came from outside the door, a figure that everyone recognized except for Li Chu walked in.

"Tsk, I can smell the authentic Changsha stinky tofu from afar. Nephew, your taste hasn't changed after all these years?"

"And... Liang Wan, I knew that the infatuated female doctor that Kan Jian mentioned was tied up by Wang Meng was lucky I wasn't late!"

Hu Ming leaned against the door frame, lit a cigarette, and glanced around the room. He noticed the obvious red marks left by the stun gun on Liang Wan's neck and felt a headache coming on.

Even so, Wu Xie was still thinking of asking Zhang Yueshan for help.
Damn it, he kidnapped someone's girlfriend in the blink of an eye and even electrocuted her. If this were Hu Ming, would he help? He'd inhumanely kill her. That would be considered showing old friendship!
"Uncle? Why are you back!?"

"Hey, Hu Ming? Didn't you run off to America three years ago? And besides, I'm not a fangirl! I just like looking at handsome guys, that's all!!!"

"Wait, how do you know my Uncle Ming?"

"Shouldn't I be the one asking you this? How do you know Hu Ming?"

Wu Xie was stunned, and Liang Wan was overjoyed. They stared at each other in disbelief, their minds a complete mess.

Wu Xie suddenly had a bad feeling.
"Uncle Ming, please don't tell me that this infatuated female doctor is also one of your lovers?"

"Hiss~~~ I remember you liked tall women with long legs, so this petite one is your type? Hmm, although she's quite pretty!"

Wu Xie looked at Hu Ming with an expression that said, "I understand," and then looked at him with a pained expression.
