Fury Immortal Doctor

Chapter 2027 - 2030: Gentle Encouragement

Shen Qiang was stunned, staring blankly at the beautiful lady beside the road, Gao Hui. At this moment, her delicate features, under the sunlight, resembled a small flower blooming among the wild grass. She wasn't strikingly beautiful because she didn't possess the captivating charm and means of Baihua Palace Master Weisheng Zhimei.She wasn't purely innocent either, because she wasn't like Qin Yurou, who seemed to live above worldly concerns.

Not only that, she lacked the intellectual beauty of Ju Yang and the charm of Miao Xiaoxia. In fact, at the moment Shen Qiang saw her, he couldn't find any remarkable trait in her.

In terms of figure, there were many around Shen Qiang more impressive; in terms of looks, many more beautiful ones.

However.

At the moment their eyes met, whether it was her face or her smile, they made Shen Qiang's heart inexplicably quiver.

That feeling.

Wasn't intense.

Not like the rich aroma of wine, nor the strong fragrance of flowers, but a mild sensation like warm water, not causing discomfort nor drawing special attention, yet gently warming, bringing a silent nurturing, as if she was meant to be there.

Ordinary.

Seen everywhere, not stunning, lacking uniqueness; if it had to be precisely described, it would be like, silent falling flowers, serene as chrysanthemums.

"Don't want to see me?"

With a seemingly distant yet inexplicably close smile, the beautiful lady Gao Hui walked towards the car, looking at Shen Qiang who was dazedly holding a bun.

Only then did Shen Qiang snap out of it.

He smiled helplessly and said, "I do, it's just that I feel if I go into the shop to find you, it might cause you trouble."

The beautiful lady Gao Hui laughed lightly; her snow-white, neat teeth glistened cleanly and brightly in the sunlight.

Her slightly full figure also surged with a kind of ordinary yet heart-stirring feminine charm.

"Can you walk with me after lunch?" asked the beautiful lady Gao Hui.

Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang laughed, casually handing the bun to Ye Guyun beside him, and got out of the car saying, "I can do it now."

"But, you should eat first..." Gao Hui was somewhat taken aback by Shen Qiang's directness, feeling a bit unnatural.

Shen Qiang chuckled, seriously saying, "Let's walk, I have plenty of time now, eating earlier or later doesn't matter."

Upon hearing this, Gao Hui looked apologetically at Ye Guyun, then nodded.

After missing the morning rush hour, although the streets were bustling with traffic, they weren't overly noisy.

Shen Qiang and the beautiful lady Gao Hui walked silently side by side under the landscape trees by the road.

Gao Hui did not speak.

Shen Qiang didn't know what to say either.

Talking about the weather seemed awkward.

Asking if she's been well recently seemed pointless.

After all, this was the Provincial City, the territory of Heshenghe, and the beautiful lady Gao Hui and her shop were places Shen Qiang specifically instructed his subordinates to keep an eye on. If there was any issue, Shen Qiang would have known long ago.

"When did you come back?" Gao Hui broke the stalemate, her voice soft and charming, white skin, red lips, and teeth, yet the instant her gaze met Shen Qiang's, she immediately turned aside.

"Yesterday morning, I had some business to discuss, so I didn't come to see you." Shen Qiang took a deep breath.

The beautiful lady Gao Hui smiled, walked slowly, leading Shen Qiang to the small triangle garden at the fork in the road.

The garden was small and quiet, with few people, just two elderly individuals sitting on stone benches inside.

"I was actually thinking, if I hadn't happened to be curious and their people had already eaten in the shop, I wouldn't have known you came by." Stopping, Gao Hui halted her steps, turned her head, and looked at Shen Qiang, saying, "The shop is half yours."

Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang helplessly glanced around and said, "Actually, I'm a bit scared to see you."

The beautiful lady Gao Hui giggled, then calmly said, "Shen Qiang, I know you're a person who does big things, and that you don't really care about the small earnings of a bun shop, but I hope, if possible, please don't watch me from outside the shop. You can come directly inside."

Shen Qiang was taken aback: "You're saying I can come into the shop to find you?"

Immediately, the beautiful lady Gao Hui, seemingly realizing something, her delicate face flushed inexplicably, said, "That's not what I meant, I just feel like we seem distant now."

Shen Qiang was silent for a moment and said, "I've just been a bit busy lately."

Upon hearing this, the beautiful lady Gao Hui gave a tranquil smile, as if to say she clearly understood that this was merely an excuse from Shen Qiang, yet she didn't react with the displeasure he expected, but instead smiled pleasantly and said.

"Actually, I understand the hardships of men. I don't understand your business, but I know the pressures of life are everywhere. Even a small bun shop faces numerous challenges to succeed, let alone big business."

Her beautiful eyes looked at Shen Qiang, the beautiful lady Gao Hui softly said, "So it's only right that you're busy. If you aren't busy, it means your career is over."

Shen Qiang sighed, as he's indeed exhausted too, especially lately. It seems calm on the surface, but whether it's the Heshenghe Pill Alliance or the imminent arrival of Chu Xiaotian and others, there's a mountain of trouble waiting.

Moreover, the thing that made Shen Qiang anxious was that in others' eyes, Shen Qiang was already unbelievably strong.

But thinking of the battle with the hefty opponent, if not for the intervention of the Dragon Group War God, everything might have been different, which forced Shen Qiang to become stronger. Yet concurrently, fatigue surged within.

"I understand the logic," said Shen Qiang. "It's just sometimes the fatigue gets tiresome."

The beautiful lady Gao Hui smiled, her charming eyes gazing endearingly at Shen Qiang, said, "When you're tired, sit down and rest, walk around, relax for a while. But life must go on, people must do something."

Shen Qiang smiled, choosing not to continue the conversation.

Seemingly sensing Shen Qiang's thoughts, the beautiful lady Gao Hui gently encouraged, "I don't know what you're busy with lately, but surely what's making you uneasy must be difficult, yet you must understand, your hard work and effort now isn't just for yourself."

"Think about the people around you, think about me. If you weren't successful in business, I probably wouldn't even be able to run a bun shop; only when you're strong, can those around you be strong too, so you have to strive to become the strongest man."

Shen Qiang smiled dismissively, saying, "I will."

Sensing Shen Qiang's distraction, the beautiful lady Gao Hui's cheeks inexplicably reddened, said, "Everyone has moments of fatigue. If you're tired and weary, and want to rest, I welcome you to come find me anytime. But after that, I hope you'll be a fearless warrior."
