Chapter 37: Chapter 37: Using Zhu Qing as a Shield_1

After shaking off the beautiful traffic policewoman, Zhang Xian sped all the way.

Unfamiliar with Tiandu City, he got lost several times before finally arriving at the main entrance of the First Municipal Hospital.

Zhu Qing was already waiting at the entrance.

Seeing Zhang Xian arrive on a shabby motorbike, her mood immediately darkened, "Zhang Xian, what are you playing at? Didn’t I tell you to be here before noon?"

"I’m sorry, I got lost." Zhang Xian responded awkwardly.

While on his way, he had taken a few wrong turns, resulting in his tardiness.

"You always have an excuse." Zhu Qing retorted unhappily.

"Uhm, Qingqing, it’s only a few minutes delay, isn’t it unnecessary to be like this?" Zhang Xian responded with a smile, "I mean, here I am, right?"

"Heh heh, nice bike, is this your ride?" After taking a closer look at Zhang Xian’s shabby motorbike, Xu Song laughed: "Good indeed, it’s antique-grade which is rarely seen in streets. It must be a head-turner! But, how comes it looks not too safe to me? It won’t suddenly fall apart or have the wheels fly off on the road, will it?"

"Exactly, I got to admit, I admire the guts of whoever rides this thing!" Xu Li also chimed sarcastically.

Zhu Qing was furious, and her gaze towards Zhang Xian was filled with anger.

What was his deal? What was this stunt? Why not just take a cab instead of showing up on a motorbike? And it had to be on the most run-down bike imaginable.

"Qingqing, we need to get moving, Gao Ya and the rest have gone ahead. We can’t be late, I don’t want to be made to drink three cups as punishment for no reason." Xu Song glanced at Zhang Xian disdainfully before smiling at Zhu Qing, "And also, I suggest you leave people who are inexperienced here, so as not to embarrass you and spoil your fun."

"Exactly, if any embarrassment happens, we’ll lose face!" Xu Li sneered in agreement.

The last time she was embarrassed at the soda shop, it had left a bad taste in the mouth. Especially when seeing Zhu Qing. Today, an opportunity of revenge finally presented itself, and she won’t let it slip away.

"You want me to accompany you to a friend’s birthday party?" Zhang Xian ignored Xu Song and Xu Li.

"What? Are you not willing?" Zhu Qing grumbled.

"Of course not. You can just go ahead in your car, I’ll just follow you." Zhang Xian said while shaking his head with a smile.

"Ha ha..." Xu Li, on hearing this, almost burst into laughter. "Look here, Zhang Xian, do you think your bike can keep up? Don’t get lost now!"

Xu Song’s gaze at Zhang Xian became even more puzzled. Granted, his car was small, but it was certainly not something a bike like Zhang Xian’s could compare to. One step on the accelerator and he would be miles ahead.

"You... just go on ahead! I’m going with Zhang Xian." Zhu Qing, instead of getting into Xu Song’s car, tightly furrowed her brows and climbed aboard the battered motorcycle.

Zhang Xian gave a small smile, ignored Xu Song and Xu Li, and sped off on his dilapidated motorcycle, roaring down the street.

"Ah! .." Zhu Qing screamed in fright and quickly held on tight to Zhang Xian.

Feeling her body pressing up closely against Zhang Xian, especially her ample chest, she yelled angrily: "Zhang Xian, did you do that on purpose?"

"What do you mean by ’on purpose’?" Zhang Xian was puzzled.

"You’re trying to take advantage of me, you shameless..." Zhu Qing’s face was flushed, but she dared not let go.

The old motorcycle was shaky when running, making her feel unsafe.

"How am I taking advantage of you? Why are you making such random accusations?"

"You’re still denying it?" Zhu Qing said angrily.

"I’m not denying anything because I didn’t do anything!" Zhang Xian exclaimed with a mix of laughter and tears.

"You... you’re shameless, you’re a lowlife, and you’re unreliable." Zhu Qing cursed through gritted teeth.

"Are you insinuating that you’re not shameless, not a lowlife and completely reliable?" Zhang Xian was somewhat depressed. "Why do you keep saying that about me?"

"Hmph, even if I was shameless, a lowlife, and unreliable, I wouldn’t be more so than you." Zhu Qing had anticipated Zhang Xian’s reply.

"I..." Zhang Xian was at a loss for words this time.

"Ha ha..." Zhu Qing finally got the upper hand and started to laugh cheerfully. He did have moments where he was rendered speechless, which she found satisfying!

...

Jinwan KTV isn’t the top club in Tiandu City, but it’s not bad either and is quite popular among the working class.

Guided by Zhu Qing, Zhang Xian arrived quickly at the entrance of Jinwan KTV.

As soon as the motorbike stopped, Zhu Qing hopped off and quickly ran off, afraid that people would see her arrive on such a shabby vehicle.

"Qingqing, aren’t you tired acting like this?" Zhang Xian asked with a smile.

"What do you mean by ’tired’?" Zhu Qing was puzzled.

"Actually, you don’t need to care about other people’s opinions, you will feel much more relaxed if you just let go." Zhang Xian smiled and started walking towards the club.

Zhu Qing stood still for a while, then caught up and followed Zhang Xian.

When they reached the entrance of a private room on the third floor, she quickly pulled Zhang Xian back, "Where are you going? We are already here!"

"Wasn’t I just following you?" Zhang Xian replied.

"Really? Then why didn’t you stop when I did?" Zhu Qing asked with a mischievous smile, "That woman’s butt seemed pretty big, didn’t it? Did you not want to touch it to see how it feels?"

"It is big..." Zhang Xian replied instinctively.

Realizing he misspoke, he shook his head quickly. "What on earth are you talking about, Qingqing?"

"Hmph! Staring at her and not even daring to admit it?" After giving Zhang Xian a contemptuous look, Zhu Qing pushed open the door to the private room and stormed in.

Zhang Xian scratched his nose and followed after her quickly.

Suddenly, the room was filled with a lively atmosphere. The room, about thirty square meters in size, was already filled with quite a few people chattering away.

"Qingqing, why are you so late?" A beautiful woman approached.

"I couldn’t help it, the traffic was bad." Zhu Qing shot a glance at Zhang Xian and introduced, "This is the birthday girl, Gao Ya. This is Zhang Xian, my friend."

"Hello!" Zhang Xian greeted her with a smile. "Happy birthday! I’m sorry, I didn’t know it was your birthday and didn’t bring a gift."

"Oh my! Bringing gifts is so old-fashioned! Your presence is all the gift I need." Gao Ya laughed, then turned to Zhu Qing and asked with a wink, "Qingqing, is he just a friend? Or a friend?"

"Stop guessing, we’re just ordinary friends. Very ordinary," Zhu Qing said, emphasizing the word ’ordinary’ as she glanced at Zhang Xian.

"I don’t believe that!" Gao Ya laughed. "If he was just an ordinary friend, would you have brought him here?"

"Well... We just bumped into each other, so I brought him along," Zhu Qing mumbled, not daring to meet Gao Ya’s gaze.

"Qingqing, you’re terrible at lying." Gao Ya chuckled teasingly. "You might be able to fool others, but you can’t fool me. What are you so embarrassed about? It’s not like it’s anything scandalous."

Zhu Qing’s face turned light red, unsure of how to argue. In the hospital, she and Gao Ya are the best of friends, spending every day together and knowing each other inside and out. It indeed was hard to fool Gao Ya.

However, Zhang Xian wasn’t her boyfriend, and they weren’t even that close.

"Hehe..." Seeing Zhu Qing’s flustered expression, Gao Ya chuckled, "Come on, Zhang Xian, Qingqing, don’t stand by the door. Go sit over there."

Zhang Xian and Zhu Qing nodded, moving to sit down on the side.

Gao Ya is a nurse at the City First Hospital, but not many colleagues were able to attend. Mainly because nurses find it hard to get time off, and someone has to cover their shift.

As a result, Zhu Qing didn’t know many people there.

"Hello, beautiful!"

Suddenly, a young man in a suit, came over with a drink and sat down next to Zhu Qing, smiling warmly.

"Um, hello!" Zhu Qing responded with a smile of her own.

"You must be Gao Ya’s colleague. I don’t think I’ve seen you before." The young man asked with a smile.

"Yes! I also work at the City First Hospital. I took the day off to be here." Zhu Qing replied, sliding subtly closer to Zhang Xian.

She wasn’t very good at reading people, but something about this young man made her uncomfortable. He was attractive enough, but his overly soft demeanor and eerie smile made her feel uneasy.

Well, Zhang Xian was annoying, but he didn’t look half bad either, and made her feel secure.

"Who might this gentleman be?" The young man asked, turning his attention to Zhang Xian.

"He’s my boyfriend," Zhu Qing said with a smile.

"Er, Qingqing, I..." Zhang Xian was taken aback.

Noticing this, Zhu Qing gave Zhang Xian a hard pinch and offered, "Zhang Xian, what would you like to drink? I can get it for you. But no alcohol."

"I’m not picky." Zhang Xian now understood Zhu Qing’s intentions. She wanted him to act as a shield against unwanted advances. With her good looks, no wonder she always attracts flies.

"Oh come on! What man drinks non-alcoholic beverages?" The young man laughed, and signaled to an individual not too far away, "Xu Song, come over here, let’s have a couple drinks."

Upon seeing this, Xu Song immediately came over with a smile on his face.

Although he was also a doctor at the City First Hospital, he and the young man were quite close. He knew the young man was a seasoned player who had deceived many naive young girls with his good looks.

Seeing him taking interest in Zhu Qing, he willingly backed off.

Xu Song had been attracted to Zhu Qing, but his failed attempts wore out his patience.

What you can’t have, you aim to destroy. It’s human nature. Zhu Qing had been high and mighty around him, and it irked him. If the young man could get her first, he might have a chance later.

"What kind of drink do you usually prefer?" The young man pointed to the numerous bottles on the table and laughed, "We have a lot to choose from. If we don’t have your favorite, I can order more."

"Um, I usually don’t drink." Zhang Xian shook his head.

"Yes! He doesn’t drink. You two can drink together." Zhu Qing interjected.

"Qingqing, you’re being unreasonable here." Xu Song chimed in, "Today is Gao Ya’s birthday, a joyous occasion. It’s fate that we’re able to gather here, we should indeed have some fun, right?"

"Alright! Since you guys want to drink so much, I’ll join you. But we can’t overdo it." Zhang Xian knew exactly what the young man was aiming for.

"Let’s not talk about that now, the main point is to enjoy ourselves. If you’re not enjoying the moment, can it really be called drinking?" The young man pointed to the array of bottles on the table and laughed. "Today, we must finish all of these at the very least."
