The Wild Doctor and the Fair Beauty

"I'm 169 cm tall barefoot, alright?"

Feng Lulu pouted. "At nearly 1.7 meters tall, a C-cup is just right."

"Ah, I see. My bad."

Jiang Xinghai grinned. "I forgot you just turned eighteen. You're having a second growth spurt and you're still getting taller. Yes, that's it."

"So, we have a deal. I'll get a room tonight. I'll be counting on you," Feng Lulu said with a satisfied smile.

Jiang Xinghai's expression turned serious. "About tonight, I can't predict the exact time. Can we confirm this afternoon?"

"You're this busy the moment you arrive in the Provincial City?" Feng Lulu asked, confused.

"There's something I have to take care of, or I won't be able to rest easy." Thinking of the Black Cloak affair, Jiang Xinghai's mood grew heavy.

Feng Lulu had heard a little about Jiang Xinghai's personal problems, so she didn't continue to act spoiled. "Alright then, let's connect this afternoon."

"Okay, talk to you then."

Jiang Xinghai hung up and then dialed Chuchu's number.

Chuchu had returned to the Imperial City two days ago. It wasn't just because she was reassigned by Black Cloak headquarters; it also had something to do with her Chu Family.

When she saw the incoming call from Jiang Xinghai, her heart clenched. "Xinghai, have you arrived in the Provincial City?"

"Didn't Leng Ning tell you?" Jiang Xinghai asked, puzzled.

"I… I already left Shanhe Province two days ago," Chuchu said, sounding rather awkward.

'She really should have told Jiang Xinghai about this sooner.'

"I see."

Jiang Xinghai couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but he still smiled. "You went back because of family matters, right?"

"Half and half, I guess."

Chuchu didn't seem to want to elaborate. "But don't worry, I haven't forgotten about your situation. The moment I have any news, I'll let you know immediately."

"Alright. If you need anything in the Imperial City, you can contact my Third Senior Sister, Zhao Linglong." Jiang Xinghai didn't press further.

'After all, everyone has their secrets. He didn't want to pry.'

The two ended the call.

Jiang Xinghai drove slowly toward the urban village.

Now, he was worried about Leng Ning's safety.

Last night, after Leng Ning returned to the Black Cloak stronghold in the urban village, she had only sent a message to say she was safe. She hadn't mentioned a single word about Chuchu leaving.

'This isn't normal.'

He was only halfway there when his phone rang.

It was Leng Ning!

"Black Cat Cafe in one hour." Leng Ning hung up as soon as she finished speaking.

She didn't even give Jiang Xinghai time to say anything.

"This is getting weirder and weirder."

Listening to the dial tone, Jiang Xinghai opened his navigation app and searched for "Black Cat Cafe."

Fortunately, it was only about a half-hour drive from his current location.

He turned the car around. As he was approaching the Black Cat Cafe, his phone rang again.

A group video call!

Seeing this, Jiang Xinghai immediately pulled the car over to the side of the road.

He had been added to a group of three.

When he saw that the avatars and names in the group call were none other than his three senior sisters, a long-lost smile spread across his face.

"First Senior Sister, Second Senior Sister, Third Senior Sister!"

After accepting the call, he immediately saw First Senior Sister Chu Lingyun, Second Senior Sister Zhong Yunman, and Third Senior Sister Zhao Linglong!

"Look at you, beaming," said First Senior Sister Chu Lingyun. She was wearing a black business suit and seemed to be in an office.

"Little Junior Brother, it's rare for the four of us to be on a video call together. If you only stare at First Senior Sister, don't you think you'll disappoint me and your Third Senior Sister?" Second Senior Sister Zhong Yunman was wearing a military-green greatcoat, her hair flecked with falling snow. She must have still been in the borderlands.

"That's right, Little Junior Brother. Did you forget all about me and Second Senior Sister the moment you saw our First Senior Sister?" Third Senior Sister Zhao Linglong was in a tank top and shorts, a towel draped around her snow-white neck. It looked like she had just finished a workout.

Jiang Xinghai chuckled. "Come on, Second Senior Sister, Third Senior Sister, don't tease me. First Senior Sister is First Senior Sister, after all. Of course I have to greet her first. Wouldn't you two do the same?"

"Alright, alright, that's enough joking around."

At that moment, First Senior Sister Chu Lingyun said softly, "It's rare that all four of us have time for a video call. Let's get down to business."

"I'll go first, then."

Second Senior Sister Zhong Yunman shook her greatcoat, breathing out a cloud of frosty air. "Little Junior Brother, there's a lead on your parents. Don't get excited. Let me finish first."

Overjoyed, Jiang Xinghai felt the taut string in his heart pull even tighter, and he forced himself not to interrupt.

"Let's start with why your parents were being hunted by Black Cloak."

Zhong Yunman's tone grew serious. "Just like the information you received before, your parents were carrying a key—a key that can lead to the secrets of the Celestial Profound Realm. As for what the Celestial Profound Realm is, you can ask First Senior Sister when the time is right. It was precisely because of that key that your parents were hunted by Black Cloak."

Jiang Xinghai clenched his jaw and nodded heavily.

Zhong Yunman continued, "As for what happened later—your parents falling into the sea, being rescued by the Shen Family's father and daughter, and then being taken away by Arhat—I've already locked down that traitor's position. Do you want me to capture him for you, or will you do it yourself?"
