Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 1034: Chapter 1033: Poaching

”Brother, accompany me to a charity gala tonight.”

Not long after Lin Dong had refined those two Heavenly and Earthly treasures, Li Qingcheng’s phone call came through.

”Okay,” Lin Dong nodded in agreement without hesitation.

Before leaving, Lin Dong asked Lin Nanzhi, ”Sister Qincheng and I are going to a charity gala, are you interested in joining us?”

Lin Nanzhi shook her head, ”Not interested, I need to cultivate.”

”Alright,” Lin Dong nodded, this woman seemed to have little interest in anything but cultivation and Buddhist practice.

Before leaving, he couldn’t help but offer a reminder.

”You... you should change your clothes, shouldn’t you?”

”Why? I think this outfit looks nice,” Lin Nanzhi asked, puzzled. She agreed with Li Qingcheng that wearing the same outfit all the time was not advisable.

She quite liked the few outfits that Li Qingcheng had bought for her.

”Cough cough, try searching on your phone what a ’Maid outfit’ is...” Lin Dong cleared his throat and left, leaving her with those words.

As for Lin Nanzhi, she hesitated for a moment but still took out her phone.

She naturally had a phone, but she only used it for the pitifully small number of calls; it served purely for communication purposes.

She hardly ever went online.

However, this time, following Lin Dong’s advice, she did search online for ’Maid outfit’.

Then, lots of pictures came up, and the clothes in those pictures were almost identical to what she was wearing.

Besides, there was a Baidu Encyclopedia entry about Maid outfits, which included a detailed explanation.

After reading it, Lin Nanzhi’s face changed color swiftly.

Those pearly white teeth gnashed loudly as she spat out three words one by one: ”Li, Qing, Cheng!!!”

...

”Achoo~~” Li Qingcheng was at the company waiting for Lin Dong when she sneezed.

”Who’s thinking about me?” Li Qingcheng mumbled, wondering if it could be her stinky brother.

Heehee, she hadn’t realized that her stinky brother always had her on his mind, thinking about her all the time.

About ten more minutes passed before Lin Dong arrived at the Liu Qingcheng Company’s building.

”Sister Qincheng, I’m at the entrance of your company building, come down quickly.”

”Okay, I’ll be right down,” Li Qingcheng answered as she came down from the company, dressed in a CEO’s office outfit.

Lin Dong inquired, ”Don’t you want to go home and change into a different outfit?”

”Change what, my hair? Just like this, sister can outshine everyone no matter what I wear,” Li Qingcheng confidently declared.

Lin Dong nodded; she wasn’t boasting.

And indeed, the outfit she was wearing wasn’t bad, so there was no need to change into any other dress.

This coincided with Lin Dong’s thoughts. After all, it was just a charity gala. Everyone was there to do charity, not for dancing and singing. Why bother dressing up too nicely?

Being casual was just fine.

He was dressed even more casually than Li Qingcheng, in jeans and a T-shirt, with a pair of sporty sneakers on his feet—the standard young person’s look.

Li Qingcheng didn’t say anything either; she was used to Lin Dong dressing so simply.

”Go, go, go...” Li Qingcheng snapped her fingers and the two set off in a car towards the hotel where the charity gala was being held.

On the way, Li Qingcheng also mentioned, ”This charity gala is organized by people from the Wu Family. Now, there’s a young woman from the Wu family named Wu Yanran.”

”She’s become the most active among the young generation after Wu Hao, recently making connections with various influential figures.”

”I hear she’s even invited quite a few wealthy elites from out of town.”

”Sister Qingcheng, you’re now considered one of Demon City’s rich ladies, right?” Lin Dong teased.

”Hey, it’s only because I’m with you. Now everyone knows I’m your woman. I can’t even count how many invitations I’ve turned down for events like this celebrity banquet, but I’ve refused them all,” Liu Qingcheng laughingly said.

Lin Dong curiously asked, ”Then why didn’t you refuse this charity gala? Is it because you wanted to do charity?”

”Doing charity is one reason, I guess, but that’s secondary. The main thing is I’m bored and wanted to drag you along for some fun,” she said, her voice taking on a slight tone of resentment.

”After all, my man has way too many women. If I don’t take the initiative to find him, who knows which vixen he’d be with, completely forgetting about me. There’s nothing I can do, I’m not the wife, and I don’t have children, so I have no status... sigh...”

Lin Dong felt awkward.

”Sister Qingcheng, I’ve been cultivating.”

”Hehe, I get it, dual cultivation with other women,” she teased.

Forget it, the more he tried to explain, the darker it got.

In all good conscience, he’d genuinely been focused on cultivation during this time. Except for that one time he’d performed dual cultivation with you, Liu Qingcheng, all the other times were normal cultivation.

”Screech~~” The sound of the car braking echoed as the vehicle stopped at the charity gala’s grand hotel front parking lot.

At the moment, the parking lot was filled with luxury cars.

The quality level of these luxury cars was high, and common luxury brands in the eyes of everyday folks, like BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Audi, were nowhere to be seen here.

In the true circle of the elite, driving those cars is even somewhat demeaning.

The most modest of vehicles they drove were Maybachs and Ferraris, while Rolls-Royces and Bentleys were more common.

The old Hongqi that Lin Dong and Liu Qingcheng arrived in was glaringly out of place among these luxury cars.

Just like their attire, which also stood out conspicuously compared to those around them.

However, since Liu Qingcheng had an invitation, they smoothly entered the interior of the hotel after showing it.

Upon reaching the banquet hall where the charity gala was held, the two found a spot to sit down.

Once seated, they huddled close together, exchanging affectionate jokes and laughter.

Unbeknownst to them, a young master in the first row of the charity gala was intently watching Liu Qingcheng.

This young man, looking to be in his late twenties and dressed in a teal suit, was quite handsome.

The only issue was his height; he was around one meter sixty-five.

At the moment, he gazed at Liu Qingcheng, his eyes glowing red with desire.

”It’s no wonder this is the international metropolis, Demon City. There are so many beauties here, of such high caliber.” His eyes were locked onto Liu Qingcheng as if a starving man was looking at a ripe red bayberry.

Another young master beside him, dressed similarly, laughingly said:

”Li Shao, shall I go ask for her contact information for you?”

The mentioned Li Shao nodded, ”Go ahead, tell her that Li Shaoyang invites her for a late-night snack after the gala.”

His companion, another local young master of Demon City and friend of this Li Shaoyang from the Southwest, nodded and walked over to where Lin Dong and Liu Qingcheng were seated.

After arriving, the young master spoke:

”Beautiful Miss, do you have time after the charity evening party? Young Master Li Shaoyang would like to invite you for a late-night snack!”

Hearing this, Liu Qingcheng shrugged at Lin Dong, ”Sneaky little brother, someone’s trying to steal your girl.”

Lin Dong frowned slightly and looked up at the chatting young master:

”Roll!”
