Chapter 433: Chapter 363: Putting the Patient into Underwear is Also a Conservative Treatment_2

"Doctor, start with conservative treatment for Secretary Li first,"

Liu Zheng said.

"Okay."

Dr. Nile nodded and then took off his bandaged trousers along with his underwear, revealing his shriveled equipment.

"No, Boss Liu, what is he doing?"

Laosi was immediately shocked.

After all, Secretary Li was the boss’s cousin, and it was even possible she was his illegitimate daughter. If she was to be treated with that, how could he explain it to the boss afterward.

"Doctor, you can’t possibly use that part to treat everything, can you?"

Liu Zheng said with hollow eyes.

"How could that be, I have more treatments than you’ve had takeaway orders,"

Dr. Nile retorted.

"Besides, do I always take off my pants just for that?"

"Then what is it for?"

"Of course, it’s for packing up the patient."

Dr. Nile stuffed Secretary Li into his underwear and scooped it up.

Lifting up his trousers, a substantial bulge appeared in front of him, which looked particularly comical compared to his withered, tall, and thin body.

"Let’s not include this part in the medical record after Secretary Li is cured, shall we?"

Liu Zheng’s mouth twitched slightly.

"Indeed, Boss Liu is thoughtful and knows how to cherish beauty,"

Laosi complimented.

"How can you say I don’t cherish beauty? Isn’t she safer in my underwear than anywhere else?"

Dr. Nile said discontentedly.

"Hehe."

Liu Zheng and Laosi simultaneously gave him a strange look.

If Secretary Li could overpower him, wouldn’t her first task after getting better be to string this unethical doctor up?

Several minutes later, Ga Ga Shuang Bathhouse called again.

"It’s done, we’re taking people to Rose Street now,"

she said.

"Did my reputation intimidate that gang?"

Liu Zheng asked in surprise.

He had only tried his luck; he hadn’t expected they would actually know of him.

"You wish, Mr. Gullible. It’s because the collateral I offered was worth far more than a million, and they agreed because they saw a chance to profit,"

Guo Koutangzi rolled her eyes.

"Ahahaha. Whatever, as long as the result is good. In that case, don’t head to Rose Street; just find a manhole cover at Diagonal Alley and go down."

Liu Zheng instructed.

Given Niu Ma’s propensity for trouble, he feared they might run into more of its old enemies on the way back.

"Got it. But you have to redeem my collateral for me, or else you’ll owe me a big favor,"

Guo Koutangzi reminded.

"You didn’t pledge your soup pot, did you?"

Liu Zheng frowned.

"I’ve told you, don’t be so gullible. How could I put our Extreme Flavor Group’s heirloom at stake for your sake?"

Guo Koutangzi rolled her eyes again.

"Tsk, so what did you pledge?"

"My father’s keepsake, also a spare soup pot of mine,"

Guo Koutangzi said.

"...How is that much different? Fine, I know. I’ll redeem it for you,"

Liu Zheng said, ending the call with a bit of a headache.

This woman lived up to her reputation as someone who dared to compete with the chef of the Bloody Restaurant. She wasn’t that nice to him usually, but she was willing to put down serious collateral when it counted.

Now that she had done this, if Liu Zheng really couldn’t redeem that pot, he’d feel obligated to help her re-establish the Extreme Flavor Group’s reputation.

These women of Metropolis were truly more troublesome than the next.

He shook his head and then dialed the Fisherman’s number, informing him of the change in meeting place.

Of course, he got another round of cursing from him.

But Liu Zheng didn’t really lose out. By expressing his willingness to serve one wife with Nightingale, he successfully enraged the Fisherman.

Soon, Guo Koutangzi called again, telling him that the Extreme Flavor Group had gone down into the sewer and had linked up with the Fisherman.

As for Niu Ma, naturally, it had slipped away at the first chance.

The gang had only let the Extreme Flavor Group and the boss of Ga Ga Shuang Bathhouse go and had no intention of releasing it.

But as long as no one was holding them back, Liu Zheng wasn’t too worried about Niu Ma’s safety.

After all, it was a survivor who had escaped from Peacock’s clutches, and a mere Old City District gang couldn’t kill it.

"Tell the Fisherman to send you to the sewer manhole on Rose Street, I’ll arrange for someone from the bathhouse to pick you up,"

Liu Zheng ordered before hanging up.

"It’s done, we’ve rescued the people. Send someone to pick them up, and then hurry to the hospital,"

he told Laosi.

"Okay, I’ll send Sasha with some people right away,"

Lao Si said.

"Who is Sasha? Can we rely on her?"

Liu Zheng asked.

He had already invested a lot in this matter and naturally didn’t want to encounter any problems at the last step.

"Oh, Sasha is the deputy manager I just promoted. Her ability is unquestionable; everything she arranges is perfectly handled."

"What about loyalty?"

"Loyalty isn’t a problem either; she has undergone rigorous background checks."

Lao Si assured.

"Still, it’s better to be cautious. I’ll have the doctor accompany them. It can also serve as a preemptive medical treatment for your boss."

Liu Zheng’s suggestion was tactful, yet his tone brooked no argument.

"This...then thank you for the kind intention, Director Liu."

Lao Si could only say.

Now with his people in Liu Zheng’s hands and the arrangements being reasonable, he had no choice but to comply with the advice.

"Should we bring more people?"

Lao Si asked.

"Of course, that’s necessary. Zhen Xinzhai is very likely to intercept us on the way to the hospital,"

Liu Zheng nodded.

"Hey, do you think it’s possible that once Sasha takes the team out, Zhen Xinzhai will lead his men to the bathhouse?"

He suddenly had an epiphany.

"Ah, Director Liu means, this is all a trap set by Zhen Xinzhai?"

Lao Si asked with a shocked face.

"It’s possible."

"No way, Zhen Xinzhai doesn’t seem that clever."

Lao Si hesitated.

From his encounters with Zhen Xinzhai, the man could be considered neither as dumb as a pig nor even dumber than one; how could he have such intricate schemes.

"Would you have ever imagined that he could deceive your boss into going to the Old City District and almost successfully ambush him?"

Liu Zheng retorted.

"This...I really didn’t see that coming."

Lao Si admitted honestly.

If he had, he would have taken strict precautions against his boss’s outings long ago.

"Just because he’s dumb doesn’t mean others are. Your Ga Ga Shuang Bathhouse is on the rise; it’s hard to break you from the outside, the simplest method is none other than... "

"Replace our boss,"

Lao Si interjected.

"Exactly. Or directly buy out Zhen Xinzhai’s shares and become your boss."

Liu Zheng said.

"What a move to pull the rug from under our feet."

Lao Si gritted his teeth.

He still had doubts in his heart, was this situation really so complicated?

But as soon as he arranged for Sasha to lead the team through the employee passage to the city, the walkie-talkie immediately went off.

"Manager Si, Zhen Xinzhai has brought people, dozens of them,"

the security outside reported.

"Damn it! This son of a bitch really came."

Lao Si cursed.

"Director Liu, please take a seat here for a moment. I’ll go handle this."

He said to Liu Zheng.

"Can you handle it?"

"Please don’t underestimate me, Director Liu. I’ve been stoking boilers on Bathhouse Street since I was eight, and I’ve been working as lobby manager at Ga Ga Shuang Bathhouse for over a decade. I can handle this little scene."

Lao Si said confidently.

"Don’t forget, Zhen Xinzhai is still your boss’s husband, and even if they haven’t divided their property yet, he holds shares in this bathhouse,"

Liu Zheng shook his head.

No matter how much power Lao Si held in Ga Ga Shuang Bathhouse, he couldn’t compare to a shareholder, especially since the other party came prepared.

"Don’t worry, the bathhouse’s legal representative is still the boss; all major personnel appointments require her signature to go through. Even if I can’t stop that guy from coming in, I can still mess up what he wants to do."

Lao Si said.

"How about this, do you have any props here that can disguise one’s appearance?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"What do you mean, Director Liu?"

"Since I’m not part of your bathhouse staff, I don’t have to be polite to Zhen Xinzhai. However, for the sake of later operations, it’s better if I don’t attract too much attention."

He said.

"Got it. We do have something like that here, but I’m afraid you might not be willing to use it."

Lao Si said hesitantly.

"What is it?"

"Costumes for special services."

Lao Si chuckled.
