Chapter 1303 - Attractive Woman

Chapter 1303: Attractive Woman
Having been ambushed by his mother out of the blue, Sikong fell silent.
Yes, he was well aware that because he was not married and rarely made friends, his mother and her other friends often plotted behind his back.
Pfft.
Hearing him speak, the old butler in front couldn’t help but chuckle.
But in the next second, Butler Fu felt a gaze land on him. When Butler Fu glanced into the rearview mirror, he saw Sikong Heng gazing at him coldly through his gold-rimmed glasses.

I’m sorry, Young Master.

Butler Fu pursed his lips and apologized obediently.
Sikong Heng retracted his gaze lightly.

Sikong, you can’t expect me to leave you alone and not meddle. I’ve already told you, I like the Bai family’s daughter. You need to marry her and give me a grandson, or… I’ll get a woman to rape you!

The car was silent.
Sikong was absolutely speechless.
…
The Bai family home.
The Bai family had been doctors for generations, with Mr Bai being the founder of the Bai Medical Group and Charity. Mrs Bai was a doctor and renowned professor as well. They really were a family of doctors down to the tee.
Mrs Bai was a refined woman from an esteemed family and took to Madam Sikong as soon as she entered. The two of them walked into the family to cut some fruits, laughing and talking along the way.
The daughter of the Bai family wasn’t home yet and was still in school.
Mr Bai looked at Sikong Heng through his thick presbyopic glasses and said,
Sikong Heng, please take a seat.


Alright.
Sikong Heng sat down on the living room sofa and faced Mr Bai.
Mr Bai sized Sikong Heng up discreetly from the top of his spectacles. Sikong Heng was the Second Young Master of Castle Guding and the owner of Herbal Room. His background was elite and his family was esteemed. It was rare for someone as young as him to achieve such great achievements in the field of medicine. Now that he had a better look at this young man, he could see that he had a very handsome face and an aura of independence independent as well.
Not bad. Mr Bai was satisfied with what he saw.

Young Master Sikong, please have some tea.
A maid brought some tea over.
With a smile, Mr Bai smiled continued,
Sikong, these are tea leaves that an old friend gave me a while back. I’m not sure whether it suits your taste?

Reaching out, Sikong Heng picked up the porcelain teacup with his long pale fingers and took a sip.

Mr Bai, this aged Tieguanyin [1. A kind of Chinese Oolong tea] really lives up to its status. I heard it’s hard to buy even with money.

Pleased, Mr Bai laughed out loud. He loved drinking tea and never expected to meet someone who liked it as well. He was liking this man sitting in front of him more and more. In his heart, his precious daughter was one in a million, but he felt this Sikong Heng was a good match for her.

Sikong, your Herbal Room is now famous all over the world. I heard that you just treated a man in black with special blood, which you could use to develop a new vaccine?

Although Sikong’s thin lips curved upwards, he remained silent. He had basically just acknowledged it without revealing too much.
Mr Bai understood. Not only would a new vaccine cure many people, it would also bring about a huge amount of profit. It was the Herbal Room’s secret which couldn’t be disclosed so easily.

Sikong, I just want to remind you to take good care of that man in black. Don’t let someone else steal him away.


Why do you say that?


Have you never heard of… the Black Rose?

The Black Rose?
Unbiddenly, Sikong Heng gave an indiscernible frown. The Black Rose was a new sect in the medical field. He had heard that the leader of the Black Rose was extremely skilled and had become very popular in just two years.
Actually, he had also heard rumors that the owner of the Black Rose was a woman.
Sikong Heng was naturally gifted and had a sort of aloofness in his calm personality. In the current world of medicine, there were few who could match him.
But that woman could.
However…
Sikong Heng suddenly thought back to the woman who had helped Xia Ling regain her memories… that mysterious university student. His mind kept replaying that scene from a few days ago when he had caught a glimpse of her. She was like a cold orchid.
Huh. Why was he suddenly thinking about a completely irrelevant person?
Sikong Heng quickly placed his focus back on Mr Bai.
At this moment, Madam Sikong and Mrs Bai walked out. They were probably tired of waiting as Mrs Bai had already given her daughter a call. The call went through and Mrs Bai scolded her daughter impatiently,
Ah Xue, when are you coming back?


Mom, I’m already on my way. There’s a traffic jam.

Sikong Heng overheard the voice on the phone. It was calm yet warm and sounded very soothing as she spoke to her mother.

What, a traffic jam? Ah Xue, which road are you on? I’ll send a driver over.


Ah, Mom, what are you saying? The signal here isn’t good, I can’t hear you…

Mrs Bai’s tone turned angry.
Ah Xue…


Hello, hello… Mom, I can’t hear you… hello…

With that, she hung up the call.
Silence filled the air.
Mrs Bai and Mr Bai stared at each other angrily as an awkwardness surrounded them all.
Sikong Heng smiled faintly. This daughter of theirs had a talent for acting. She didn’t want to marry him, which was fine by him.
Just then, his cell phone rang.
He took out his phone and answered the call.
Hello?


Master, there’s been trouble. The man in black has been taken by someone!

Sikong Heng’s black eyes sharpened behind his gold-rimmed glasses.
I’ll be there soon.


Yes, Master. We’ve already located the thief. They just entered the Seasons Hotel.

…
Seasons Hotel.
The underling spoke in a soft voice.
Master, the people from the Herbal Room are here.

The Black Rose only smiled and said,
They got here faster than I expected. Leave with the man in black. I’ll hold them off.


Yes.

The underlings left with the man in black.
At this moment, a set of footsteps approached them and instructions were heard.

I want this entire area surrounded.

They were surrounded.
The Black Rose tread forwards in her high heels. She was in a black fitted dress, which accentuated her full chest, slim waist, and shapely butt with every step she took. A cold and beautiful aura surrounded her. Any man who saw this would have his blood pumping in an instant.
Her raven black hair flowed down her back lazily, revealing her small, pretty face. She showed no fear as the men in front approached her and instead her eyes only shone more brightly. In the dim corridor, she glowed like a beautiful black rose, attracting everyone’s attention.
She reached out to her black skirt and ripped the seams apart, revealing the white skirt she had on underneath. Then she kicked her high heels off, wiping the lipstick off her lips before tying her hair up into a ponytail. Within seconds, she immediately transformed from the dangerous Black Rose into the cool, yet innocent Bai Xue.
The men from the Herbal Room pulled the door open and entered as she ran towards them frantically with her feet bare.

Ah, save me!

She fell headfirst into a man’s embrace.
Sikong Heng froze. He had no time to dodge at all before someone jumped into his arms.
It was a soft body. He had caught a whiff of her scent when the random person had jumped at him. It was the scent of an orchid, the scent of a young woman.
Sikong Heng was a doctor and a slight germaphobe. But he had touched many girls in his life and taken in all kinds of scents before.
