Chapter 718 No Traveling at Night

"No, no... I don't want you to come, find someone else..."

Wu Gousheng kept howling.

"In a doctor's eyes, there is no distinction between men and women. Take off your clothes, and I'll show you!"

A simply dressed woman clung to Wu Gousheng's clothes, unwilling to let go.

Wan Qiqi and Aji watched from the side, remaining silent for a long time.

"I...didn't notice, it was a female doctor who came!" Aji said with a wry smile.

Wan Qiqi smiled nonchalantly and looked at the female doctor, saying, "Thank you for your help! Treat him properly. If the wound is large and doesn't heal well, it's okay to stitch it up."

The woman nodded and smiled faintly, "Alright! But I need the patient's cooperation, otherwise I won't be able to proceed."

Wan Qiqi, seeing Wu Gousheng trying to escape, roared, "Behave yourself! If you don't settle this here today, don't come home with me! Go wherever you want!"

Half an hour later.

Wu Gousheng came out of the clinic with red eyes and was still sobbing.

Wan Qiqi frowned. "Did it hurt that much even though you didn't get stitches?"

"Waaaaah... I'm not clean anymore!" Wu Gousheng said, tears welling up in his eyes.

Wan Qiqi: "..."

Aji: "..."

"I've only ever heard people say that women shouldn't dress provocatively, as it's against feminine virtue. Do men also have masculine virtues?" Wan Qiqi tilted her head and asked.

“That doctor is a woman! Of course there’s something wrong with her!” Wu Gousheng cried.

Wan Qiqi rolled her eyes. "In her eyes, there are only patients, not men and women."

“I do see it!” Wu Gousheng said, feeling wronged.

"Bullshit! If you keep acting up, I'll throw you into the river to feed the fish!"

Wan Qiqi couldn't stand it anymore, "Why didn't you say anything when you were running around the village shirtless?"

"I...I...I..." Wu Gousheng couldn't speak for a long time.

He felt that if he competed with Wan Qiqi, he might really be thrown into the water.

Besides, no matter what I say, I could never have said anything more to Sister Qi.

Sister Qi looked a bit angry; I couldn't provoke her any further, or I'd be the one to suffer.

After much hesitation, Wu Gousheng decided to keep quiet.

Wan Qiqi finally heard some quiet and turned to Aji, saying, "Ignore him, he must have gotten his brain caught in a door!"

Aji glanced at Wu Gousheng and smiled faintly, "It's nothing!"

Then he asked, "We still need Mr. Wan's help with the renovation of Kelaiju."

“The repairs can be done slowly, there’s no rush!” Wan Qiqi said.

She believes that even if repairs are completed as soon as possible, Yunhe County will not be able to operate normally given its current condition.

During our casual conversation, we arrived at the entrance of Xinglong Restaurant.

Wan Qiqi glanced around and noticed that there weren't many customers in the restaurant.

She turned to look at Aji and said, "These days, stay home as much as possible and be careful."

Aji looked puzzled.

Thinking about how Wan Qiqi had been frowning the whole way after leaving the government office, it seemed that something had happened there!

Although he didn't know what had happened, he nodded and replied, "Okay!"

After seeing Aji off, Wan Qiqi went inside.

Wan Qiqi's sudden appearance drew a large crowd of men.

At the same time, Zhu Chengye, who was standing next to the counter, also looked over.

Wan Qiqi briefly explained that the case had been investigated and told the workers to disperse and get back to work before approaching Zhu Chengye.

In the past, whenever Zhu Chengye saw Wan Qiqi return, he would always take the initiative to greet her and show his concern.

This time, he stood by the counter, watching Wan Qiqi walk over, and smiled faintly, "You're back? It's good that you're alright!"

Wan Qiqi nodded, seemingly unaware of the change in Zhu Chengye's attitude towards her, and said, "Brother Zhu, business has been so-so lately, why don't you let everyone get some rest early tonight?"

Zhu Chengye's smile vanished instantly. "The evening is when we have the most customers. If we close early, it might affect our business."

“Not at this moment,” Wan Qiqi said.

Zhu Chengye asked coldly, "Qiqi, is something wrong? Does it mean you have to change your business hours?"

"Well, there are some things I can't tell you. Let's wait for the government's notification!" Wan Qiqi said calmly.

She didn't know how the government would inform the people, so she shouldn't speak carelessly.

Talking about this can easily cause panic.

"Qiqi, do you not trust me?" Zhu Chengye suddenly asked.

Wan Qiqi was taken aback. "No, I shouldn't talk about government matters."

She didn't want to argue with Zhu Chengye about these useless things at this time; she was only concerned with the official discussions.

Seeing that Wan Qiqi's answer was half-hearted, Zhu Chengye didn't continue and turned to talk to the others.

Shortly after, a soldier walked in.

"Who is the manager?"

The officers and soldiers spoke in a rather unfriendly tone.

Zhu Chengye immediately went to greet him, "Sir, I am the owner of the restaurant. What can I do for you?"

"Look! The government has issued a notice that from now on, shops cannot operate beyond the beginning of the 7 PM (戌初). After 7 PM, soldiers will patrol the streets, and people will no longer be allowed to go out!"

The officers and soldiers tossed the notice to Zhu Chengye.

Zhu Chengye looked at the notice with a puzzled expression. "Sir, even in previous years when the curfew was strict, it was never this severe. What happened this time?"

The officers gave Zhu Chengye a cold glance. "Don't pry into government affairs. What we've told you to know, we'll let you know! Remember, business hours cannot exceed 7 PM!"

After saying that, the officers and soldiers walked out.

Zhu Chengye held the notice, looking somewhat dejected.

He turned around and just saw Wan Qiqi withdraw her gaze, looking completely calm.

Zhu Chengye gave a wry smile.

Wan Qiqi already knew the situation, but she refused to say anything.

The two agreed to share resources when they opened the restaurant together, but now things have turned out like this.

Zhu Chengye didn't know if it was his problem or someone else's.
