Playboy: Medical and Martial Master

Upon hearing this, Sun Zhe’s face showed a look of astonishment. Just as he was about to greet Jiang Qinglan, he saw Xia Shiqing’s cold face on the sofa, and immediately swallowed his words.

He suddenly remembered what Xia Shiqing had said before, that Xia Shiqing’s son was killed by the current Empress.

At this moment, Jiang Qinglan was smiling, looking at Sun Zhe. Her whole demeanor was elegant and noble, completely unlike the panicked state she was in when she last saw Sun Zhe, as if nothing had ever happened.

Yet Sun Zhe’s imposing figure was deeply etched in her mind, unable to be dispelled.

"Qingqing, this is..."

Xia Shiqing, with an expressionless face, seemed unwilling to speak to her, and said lightly, "Sun Zhe, my sister’s child."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qinglan’s beautiful eyes lightly trembled, and she suddenly got up and walked to Sun Zhe, sizing him up again, and smiled softly, "You are Sister Yue and Ah Wei’s child, didn’t expect you’ve grown so much."

Sun Zhe managed to squeeze out a smile, "Greetings, Empress."

Jiang Qinglan shook her head gently, saying softly, "Silly child, there’s no Empress title in private! Strictly speaking, you should call me Second Aunt."

Upon hearing this, Sun Zhe frowned, "Second Aunt?"

"Alright, Jiang Qinglan, if you have something to say, say it."

At this time, Xia Shiqing suddenly stood up, seemingly very impatient, and said to Jiang Qinglan, "If you have nothing to do, please leave. I won’t see you off."

Jiang Qinglan looked helpless, turned around and looked at her, her eyes full of guilt, "Then I’ll be leaving first. Qingqing, I hope you’ll reconsider what Second Sister just mentioned."

"I will consider it."

Jiang Qinglan turned to Sun Zhe again and smiled, "Little Zhe, come visit the palace when you’re free. Second Aunt will make you something delicious."

"..."

After a while.

After Jiang Qinglan left, Sun Zhe asked, "What’s going on? How did an Empress suddenly appear, and she’s even my Second Aunt?"

Xia Shiqing looked full of disdain, "That woman just came to disgust me, asking me to host the Divine Dragon Martial Arts Association."

Sun Zhe asked, "Are you going?"

Xia Shiqing shrugged helplessly, "It’s your uncle’s wish, can I not go?"

Sun Zhe nodded and further asked, "How did she become my Second Aunt?"

Xia Shiqing recalled the past and slowly said, "Back then, we were all young. She, my sister, and I roamed the martial world together and later became sworn sisters despite not being blood-related."

"So that’s how it is. I bet you three sisters shared a very deep bond back then?"

Xia Shiqing remained silent.

Sun Zhe commented, "If I hadn’t seen her today, I wouldn’t have known I have such a Second Aunt."

Xia Shiqing looked at him with a peculiar gaze, "What, first you were involved with the Little Aunt, and now you’re interested in the Second Aunt?"

Sun Zhe hurriedly responded, "What kind of talk is that!"

Xia Shiqing smirked and looked at him meaningfully, "Kyoto’s top three beauties, and the noble Empress, what man wouldn’t be tempted? How could you not be?"

Sun Zhe touched his nose, "Don’t speak nonsense, I really have no intentions."

Xia Shiqing suddenly leaned closer and stared into his eyes, "Honestly, Little Zhe, your Second Aunt is no simple lamp. She’s quite good at handling men, and her skills in bed are extraordinary."

"Don’t be fooled by her elegant and graceful demeanor on the surface; once in bed, she’s wilder than anyone. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to completely control your Uncle the Emperor."

Sun Zhe asked with a strange expression, "How do you know?"

Xia Shiqing straightforwardly replied, "I used to serve your Uncle alongside her, and I was just on standby watching."

Sun Zhe exclaimed, "Really? Your skills are already quite good, you were just watching?"

"What else could I do? That’s why I said she’s really wild."

Upon saying this, Xia Shiqing’s expression darkened, "I even suspect that your uncle’s health issues were caused by her."

Sun Zhe responded with a peculiar look, "Alright, but you didn’t really need to tell me all this, did you?"

Xia Shiqing suddenly asked, "Are you confident in getting her? When the time comes, give her a good lesson."

Sun Zhe replied earnestly, "Didn’t you say earlier that she was responsible for my cousin’s death?"

"Sigh..."

Xia Shiqing gently sighed, saying, "Yes, she killed my son, but what can be done?"

"Actually, I also know she didn’t do it on purpose. At least on the surface, it seems it wasn’t intentional, just an accident. And over the years, she has always felt guilty and has been trying very hard to compensate."

Sun Zhe sighed too, and after a moment of silence, said, "This is your experience, I can’t advise you to be forgiving, but regardless, living means looking forward."

"You’re right."

Sun Zhe gazed at her, "So are you feeling conflicted now?"

Xia Shiqing waved her hand, "Forget it, let’s not talk about it anymore. You go rest up early, aim to win the Martial Hero tomorrow."

Sun Zhe fixated on her exquisite face, "Um... really not sleeping together?"

Xia Shiqing promptly kicked him in the butt, scolding cutely and fiercely, "You rascal, thinking of the Little Aunt all day long!"

"..."

...

The next day.

Sun Zhe got up early and went to the villa courtyard to practice boxing.

Because his Undying Body was suppressed by the Little Dragon Girl, his injuries from last night still hadn’t healed.

However, Xia Shiqing’s medicinal bath was extremely effective. After a good night’s sleep, the medicinal power was fully absorbed by his body, and now he felt that his whole body was brimming with strength.

Each punch he threw in the air sounded like crackers bursting.

Midday.

After lunch, Sun Zhe called Chen Ruolong and together they headed to the underground martial arena.

According to the "Martial Arena" rules, since Sun Zhe guarded the arena and wasn’t defeated, today’s martial arena would continue with Sun Zhe guarding it, and the record would continue from yesterday’s, from the twenty-first match onward, until Sun Zhe is defeated.
