Playboy: Medical and Martial Master

Chapter 169: Chapter 169: Li Shiyan’s Request

After leaving Han Xinyue at Shengshi Court, Sun Zhe followed the address Ye Qiao had sent him and took a taxi to a seafood restaurant near the port.

When he arrived at the restaurant and saw the three women, he was completely stunned by the sight of a table overflowing with seafood. He almost turned around and walked out.

King crab, Australian lobster, green lobster, black gold abalone, giant oysters... This table had it all!

A spread like this would easily cost tens of thousands of yuan!

”Good grief... who ordered all this?”

”This much? Are we having a banquet?”

”Forget about us bursting, the table is about to burst!”

Sun Zhe pulled out a chair next to Zhu Yan and sat down, feeling utterly overwhelmed.

Ye Qiao pouted. ”Who else could it be? Of course, your little stepmom ordered it for you. Who else here dotes on you so much?”

Zhu Yan shook her head helplessly. ”Ah Zhe, don’t listen to Qiaoqiao’s nonsense. She clearly ordered all of this.”

Ye Qiao looked unconvinced. ”Didn’t you say my brother needed some nourishment? And you also said that with his appetite, he could devour all of this with no problem.”

Zhu Yan immediately retorted, ”But I never said to order *this* much! Shiyan, you be the judge. Who exactly ordered all this?”

Li Shiyan rolled her eyes. ”Auntie, please don’t drag me into your divine battle.”

”...”

Looking at the mother-daughter duo, Sun Zhe was exasperated. He sighed and rubbed his forehead. ”Alright, since it’s already ordered, let’s just eat.”

”We’ll eat what we can and pack the leftovers.”

Ye Qiao smiled sweetly and suddenly placed a large, marinated raw oyster on Sun Zhe’s plate.

”Here, bro, give your little tadpoles a boost. This is a man’s fuel station!”

Next, Li Shiyan placed a black gold abalone on his plate. ”And this, too. New Zealand black gold abalone. It’s super expensive, outrageously expensive, but you’re paying anyway.”

Just then, Zhu Yan grabbed a large Australian lobster and set it in front of Sun Zhe. ”Ah Zhe, eat this first.”

”Uh, alright.”

”Do you want Stepmom to shell it for you?”

”No need, Stepmom. I can do it myself.”

”...”

In just a few moments, the three women had piled a small mountain of food on Sun Zhe’s plate.

He was completely numb and muttered in frustration, ”Are you three trying to fatten me up for the slaughter?”

Zhu Yan smacked him lightly on the head. ”What nonsense are you talking about? Hurry up and eat.”

Sun Zhe shot a suspicious glance at the three women. ”I have a feeling you three planned this all along.”

Hearing this, the three of them simultaneously turned their heads away, pretending they hadn’t heard a thing.

Ye Qiao suddenly said, ”I command you to eat now!”

”Uh... This humble servant obeys!”

Steeling himself, Sun Zhe quickly slurped the large oyster into his mouth.

I have to admit, this oyster is pretty fresh. Not fishy at all.

Zhu Yan gently wiped his mouth with a napkin. ”Want more? Stepmom will get it for you.”

”No, it’s fine. You should all eat too, Stepmom.”

”It’s fine. You just eat.”

Ye Qiao propped her chin on her hands, smiling as she watched him. ”Bro, you know what? I love watching you eat. You make food look so appetizing.”

”...”

Time ticked by.

Finally unable to eat another bite, Sun Zhe let out a long burp. He rubbed his bulging belly and leaned back in his chair to take a break. If I digest all this seafood tonight, I wonder how many little tadpoles that’s going to replenish.

Ye Qiao suddenly put a black gold abalone in front of him. ”Bro, this black gold abalone looks so evil. Just looking at it makes me lose my appetite. Hurry up and devour it.”

”And all of this. Don’t waste it.”

Sun Zhe wore a bitter expression. ”Are you trying to stuff me to death so you can inherit my Yongbei?”

Ye Qiao rolled her eyes, pretending not to hear. ”You eat up, bro. Shiyan and I are going to the restroom.”

With that, she pulled Li Shiyan away.

A little while later, after the two had left, Sun Zhe stared at the black gold abalone on his plate, his expression gradually turning strange.

He then turned his head and gave Zhu Yan a meaningful glance.

Zhu Yan met his gaze, her pretty face suddenly flushing red. She snapped, pinching him, ”What are you thinking about?”

Sun Zhe looked aggrieved. ”I haven’t said anything! Why’d you pinch me, Stepmom?”

Zhu Yan huffed. ”I see that lewd look in your eyes. Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking.”

Sun Zhe, however, put on a serious face. ”You’re the one with the dirty mind, okay? I really wasn’t thinking anything.”

Zhu Yan poked his forehead. ”Stop the nonsense and eat.”

Sun Zhe suddenly leaned close to her ear and whispered with a wicked grin, ”But seriously, Stepmom, your ’abalone’ is much prettier than this black gold one. It’s pink and tender, so fresh and juicy... Look at this thing, it’s so black it’s practically glowing. How can it compare to yours— Ouch!”

Before he could finish, Zhu Yan’s hand had already pinched him hard on the waist.

「Meanwhile, in the restroom.」

Li Shiyan’s cheeks were flushed as she whispered, ”Hey, Qiaoqiao, Sister Yingchun said your brother has some kind of Sacred Body. She said his little tadpoles can help women resist aging, and if you consume enough, you can stay young forever... Is that true?”

”It sounds so absurd.”

”So, doesn’t that make him like Tang Monk’s flesh?”

Ye Qiao pinched her chin and said with conviction, ”I think it’s true. You know Sister Yingchun. She wouldn’t make up a lie like that to trick us.”

She continued, ”Besides, haven’t you noticed? My brother’s been at our house for less than a month, and my mom already looks so much younger. When we go out together, people think she’s my sister.”

”I bet my mom has already eaten it!”

”Anyway, let’s just try it out first. We’ll help him stock up on little tadpoles, do some research... and if it really has that effect, then we’ve hit the jackpot!”

Li Shiyan’s cheeks were crimson. ”Then... let’s give it a try.”

Ye Qiao said, ”Let’s order him two more dozen oysters later. No, four dozen!”

Li Shiyan replied seriously, ”If we’re already at four dozen, we might as well round up and get him ten dozen.”

”Hmm, good idea!”

”...”

It wasn’t until past eleven o’clock at night that a stuffed Sun Zhe was helped home by the three women.

As soon as he was home, Sun Zhe hid in his room. Without even bothering to shower, he sat cross-legged on the bed and began to digest the True Qi he had absorbed from Han Xinyue.

However, ever since he reached the Nascent Soul Stage and his Inner Core transformed into the Nascent Soul, he felt it had become a bottomless abyss that could never be filled, no matter how much he poured into it.

The True Qi he acquired through ”hard work” would be completely absorbed by the Nascent Soul, leaving not a single drop behind. Yet, for some reason, the Nascent Soul never grew even the slightest bit.

Sigh, I wonder how much more True Qi it’ll take to make this Nascent Soul grow... Trying to fill it up like this is like trying to put out a wildfire with a cup of water. At this rate, even finding ten women a day might not be enough.

Looks like I’ll have to rely on elixirs.

I’ll find Shuqing later and see if she can get the formula for the Spirit Crane Pill.

”...”

KNOCK. KNOCK. KNOCK.

While he was muttering to himself, there was a sudden knock at his door.

Sun Zhe immediately stopped his cultivation, picked up his phone to check the time, and saw that it was already past two in the morning.

He got out of bed, walked over, and opened the door, only to see a furtive Ye Qiao standing outside.

”Qiaoqiao, why are you still awake so late?”

Ye Qiao suddenly reached to her side and yanked Li Shiyan directly in front of Sun Zhe.

”Bro, didn’t I say I wanted to discuss something with you earlier?”

Sun Zhe nodded. ”Yeah? What’s up? What did you want to discuss?”

Ye Qiao glanced at Li Shiyan with a mysterious look. ”Well, Shiyan... she wants to ask you for a favor tonight.”

Sun Zhe asked, ”What favor?”

Ye Qiao nudged Li Shiyan with her elbow. ”Why don’t you tell him yourself?”

But Li Shiyan just kept her head down, her face flushed shyly, not saying a word.

She really couldn’t bring herself to say such shameless words.

”Sigh, I guess I’ll have to say it for you.”

Ye Qiao sighed, then looked at Sun Zhe and said bluntly, ”Shiyan wants you to help her lose her virginity!”

”...”
