Chapter 38: The Evil Gate is Also a Path

  When Wu Tian came out of the office, An Qing was still sitting outside, her head slightly lowered, nervously looking around, still maintaining the posture when Wu Tian left - clenching her fists. It seems that the lewd middle-aged uncle just now scared her quite a bit, and she has not recovered yet.

  Wu Tian walked up to An Qing, and An Qing immediately raised her palm, but when she looked up and saw that it was Wu Tian, she let out a heavy sigh of relief. Wu Tian took off his glasses and put them on An Qing's nose bridge, transforming the delicate little girl into a pilot with a helmet. Wu Tian repeatedly took the glasses off An Qing's nose bridge and put them back on, taking them off again and putting them back on several times. After a while, Wu Tian let out a sigh and didn't take the glasses off again. A girl like An Qing indeed needed a disguise to protect herself.

  "Glasses have been found, let's go." Wu Tian said to his opponent.

  An Qing nodded and picked up her bag, following Wu Tian's side as they walked out.

  Out of the hospital gate, An Qing took out a notebook from her bag, flipped through several pages, and read according to what was written on it, "The next hospital is in...!"

  "Don't be in a hurry, let's sit down and have something to drink first." Wu Tian said to An Qing, pulling the bewildered An Qing into a coffee shop near the hospital.

  He ordered two cups of coffee and Wu Tian stared intently at An Qing sitting across from him. This little girl was hiding something deep, and she had even fooled someone like him who was a seasoned veteran of romantic entanglements. He thought back to his school days when he hadn't been short on girlfriends, but today he had fallen into her trap. Earlier, he should have thanked that shameless old man and given him a few more slaps.

  An Qing saw Wu Tian staring at her, so she lowered her head, holding the cup with both hands, sipping coffee in small mouthfuls. At this time, her hair fell down and immediately covered her entire face. After a while, she slightly raised her head and looked through the gap between her hair to see that Wu Tian was still staring at her, and her pretty face suddenly turned red.

  "What are you looking at?" An Qing asked in a low voice, she was made uncomfortable by Wu Tian's gaze and kept twisting her body, fidgeting restlessly.

  "Look at you!" Wu Tian said very directly.

  "Look... at me?" An Qing's hands shook, the coffee in her cup almost spilling over. She quickly steadied her hands and asked nervously, "What are you looking at me for?"

  "Why do you wear glasses?"

  I am nearsighted.

  "Who are you trying to cheat? That's just a plain glass!" Wu Tian said, he had previously put on the other person's glasses and found that there was no change in front of him, at that time he knew it was a plain glass, and An Qing wasn't nearsighted either.

  "I didn't lie to you, I'm nearsighted... ten degrees." An Qing's head lowered even further as she spoke. It was clear that she wasn't good at telling lies.

  "Why didn't you say your 3.1415926 degrees?" Wu Tian said while drinking his coffee, "You can't even say 'panicked', the lowest degree for glasses is fifty degrees."

  Upon hearing Wu Tian's words, An Qing lifted her head to look at Wu Tian, shaking her head vigorously while anxiously saying to him, "I didn't intentionally deceive you, I...!"

  "If there's something bitter, then don't say it." Wu Tian patted An Qing's head and said, "Who doesn't have a few small secrets in their heart? I'm not someone who likes to pry into others' private matters, I'm not nosy."

  An Qing fell silent, bowing her head and sipping her coffee nonstop. After a few minutes, An Qing slowly opened her mouth and said, "I grew up in a single-parent family with only my mother as my relative. I was always confused and bullied since childhood, but it was my mother who protected me all the time. Later when I went to middle school, there were boys writing strange notes to me. When I told my mom about this, she said that girls need to learn how to protect themselves. From then on, my mom changed my hairstyle, put glasses on me and reminded me not to take them off easily. These were also the last words my mom said to me before she passed away..."

  “……！”

  Wu Tian listened quietly to An Qing's story, never expecting such a tale. After hearing it, Wu Tian felt a tinge of sadness in her heart, but more so was her sympathy for An Qing. Of course, she also had great respect for An Qing's mother. She had long been aware that An Qing would become increasingly beautiful, beautiful enough to make all men have bad intentions towards her. But in order to protect her own daughter from getting hurt and not following in her footsteps, she would take such measures to protect her daughter.

  Looking at An Qing's downcast expression, Wu Tian felt that he had been too nosy. If he hadn't come to drink this cup of coffee and ask so many useless questions, An Qing wouldn't have said those things, and she wouldn't have become so sentimental, reminding him of her mother.

  "I have a good idea?" Wu Tian suddenly said to An Qing.

  "Huh?" An Qing slightly froze, looking up at Wu Tian with a puzzled expression.

  "Just now I had a simple 'communication' with that doctor, from his words, I got some inspiration, we can change our approach, in that case, maybe it will help us to carry out our business." Wu Tian said confidently.

  "What's going on?" Hearing Wu Tian's words, An Qing threw away what had just happened and looked at Wu Tian curiously.

  "What did you say is most important when discussing business?" Wu Tian asked.

  "Uh......!" An Qing tilted her little head and thought for a moment, then said seriously, "I know, it's sincerity!"

  “……！”

  Wu Tian was speechless. In this day and age, there are still people who take sincerity seriously? Should I say she's naive and innocent or should I say she's inexperienced and lacking in worldly wisdom?

  "Mistake is an image. A 'good' image can add 'depth' to the other's impression of you, then 'attract' their attention, and then proceed with a 'deeper' communication, and then business will be done."

  "I didn't say anything wrong, did I? The image should be sincere!" An Qing said.

  "Never mind, I'll take you to a place and when we get there, you'll understand what I mean." Wu Tian pulled An Qing out of the coffee shop.

  Two people took a taxi and arrived at Shiji Village. Wu Tian brought An Qing to the entrance of a grocery store.

  "Boss, two bottles of North Ocean soda water, with straws!"

  "Alright!"

  Wu Tian pulled over two chairs and sat down at the door, the boss handed him two open bottles of soda water, Wu Tian handed one to An Qing, then sucked on a straw while glancing around at the crowd on the street.

  An Qing looked at Wu Tian with confusion and puzzlement, finally imitating Wu Tian's manner, looking left and right on the street. She didn't know what Wu Tian was looking at, so she didn't know what she was looking at either, simply mimicking him innocently.

  "Look!" Wu Tian suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed secretly at a young woman on the street. "What do you think of her?"

  An Qing looked in the direction Wu Tianzhi was pointing, and it was a fashionably dressed woman, only wearing a bit too cool, with suspenders on top and cowboy shorts on the bottom, her buttocks almost exposed.

  "What's wrong?" An Qing asked in puzzlement.

  Wu Tian thought An Qing was just a wooden head, looking at people like that, if she's too innocent, it's not a good thing either.

  "You stay here and watch." Wu Tian put down the soda, stood up, and walked towards the young woman.

  He deliberately approached the woman. When he walked in front of the young woman, their eyes met and the young woman took a step closer, asking softly, "Want to have some fun?"

  Wu Tian glanced at the other person lightly and continued walking forward, pretending to pass by. The young woman saw him and immediately retreated again, continuing to look around among the passing men. Wu Tian circled back and returned to An Qing's side, this time looking at her and asking, "Do you understand now?"

  An Qing looked at Wu Tian with a puzzled expression, stunned for a moment, and then shook her head.

  Wu Tian quickly kowtowed to An Qing...!

  "She's a wild goose!" Wu Tian said in a low voice.

  "What's wrong?" An Qing looked at Wu Tian, still with a confused expression.

  "Miss!"

  "Miss?"

  "Whore!"

  "Ah-ha!" An Qing's face lit up with a look of sudden realization.

  Wu Tian sucked hard on the straw and drank soda.

  Come on, no need to be so blunt, it's lost all sense of mystery!
