When the evening lights were lit, the Female's Street in the Guan City became busy.

The street was full of women, and women's clothing, jewelry, bags, perfume, cosmetics, and other goods. All kinds of women and commodities dazzled people. Not only did females like to shop in this street, but also males, because they could see many girls here, with white thighs and pretty hips. It just looked like the visual feast of a ukiyo-e style.

One man, however, looked upset. This man was Ning Tao. He originally wanted to stay in the clinic, but was forced out to shop by the snake sisters. He was worried about the threat from Bai Sheng, so he went out with them anyway.

Ning Tao had picked up seven or eight shopping bags, but Bai Jing and Qing Zhui were still in shopping. Then he was dragged into a lingerie store.

It was a small store, full of bras and briefs, as well as some s.e.xy underwear that made one think about something.

“Cheer up, won't you? Are you going to show your straight face to Qing Zhui or to me?” Bai Jing joked.

A smile came out of Ning Tao's mouth. “I'm not unhappy? You think too much. I am very happy.”

“I'm unemployed because of you. Won't you buy me some presents to comfort me?” Bai Jing asked.

Ning Tao held up the shopping bags in his hands. “I paid for all this. What else do you want?” There was a pause, and something suddenly occurred to him. “How can you say you lost your job because of me? Please be reasonable, okay?”

He removed the Viper-like Insect from her body and set her free, but she claimed that she had lost her job because of him. That didn't make sense.

Bai Jing smiled and said, “When have you ever seen a woman be reasonable?”

Ning Tao had nothing to say about it.

The lingerie store owner, a man in his early 40s, looked at Ning Tao and Bai Jing with a half-smile and undisguised admiration in his eyes.

Bai Jing was mature, hot, and beautiful as a fairy. Which man didn't want her? But other men never could have her.

“Brother Ning, look, do I look good in this?” Qing Zhui came to Ning Tao with a pair of mesh underwear.

The underwear was all mesh, and there was almost no cloth underneath. Ning Tao wanted to spew blood at a glance and hurriedly shouted, “What are you thinking? Who do you show in clothes like that?”

“You, of course,” Qing Zhui uttered, and she even deliberately put it in front of her for a try.

The lingerie store owner's eyes widened.

Bai Jing suddenly reached out from the shelf to take a small red thong with a fuzzy tail in the back, and then also put it in front of her for a try. She asked with a smile, “Brother Ning, look, do I look good in this one?”

Ning Tao was speechless.

The lingerie store owner's jaw dropped noiselessly. “So they're all his women!” He would be jealous of the one who had one of Bai Jing and Qing Zhui, but this guy had both of them!

Ning Tao, however, was suffering. When there was only Qing Zhui with him, he could endure it with gritted teeth, but since Bai Jing came, the stimulation and temptation doubled. His days were numbered. Others envied him to have two pretty girls beside him, but who knew what he had suffered?

He and Bai Jing had a normal relations.h.i.+p, and Bai Jing had no reason to tempt or stimulate him, but did a snake demon need a reason before she tried to tempt or stimulate someone? Not at all. That was their nature. Whenever she wanted to, everything she said and did, even a look in her eyes, had seductive magic. Bai Jing, on the other hand, seemed to take seducing him as a kind of daily pleasure, especially like seducing him with Qing Zhui.

“How about I and Bai Jing go into the fitting room and put on these two and you come in and have a look?” Qing Zhui said.

The lingerie store owner was about to get the nosebleeds.

Ning Tao gave a wry smile. “Buy them. You don't have to try. We buy them. Excuse me, how much are these two?”

The lingerie store owner blurted out. “Free. You must be a family. I'll give them to you for free.”

Ning Tao was stunned. What did the owner mean by a family?

But did he need to explain his complicated relations.h.i.+p with the snake demon sisters to an underwear vendor?

Ning Tao left the lingerie store with two more shopping bags in his hand.

On the bustling street, Bai Jing pulled out her cellphone and read a text message. Then she frowned and said, “Xin Zhiyu wants to meet me again. This is his 27th message. I wanted to kill him.”

“Then kill him,” agreed Qing Zhui.

“Don't keep talking about killing people,” Ning Tao said. “If you don't want him to bother you again, you can just put him on the blacklist.”

Bai Jing said, “Why would I block him? Such people may be useful in the future.”

Ning Tao gave a slightly speechless shrug. He felt he was wasting his words.

“By the way, I'm no longer the general manager of New World Technology. I'm kind of a high-caliber person who's unemployed. Ning Tao, are you interested in investing in me?”

“Invest in you?” Ning Tao stunned. “I'm a doctor who's not rich and runs a clinic. What could I invest?”

Bai Jing said, “Don't you have the delicate perfumed cream and elixirs? We could start a biopharmaceutical company or a cosmetics company. You provide the technology, and I am responsible for production and sales. We can make this company bigger and stronger.”

Ning Tao was impressed by the suggestion, but he shook his head on second thought. “Forget it. It takes a lot of work to make elixirs. Medicinal herbs and elixirs are so scarce that elixirs cannot be produced in quant.i.ty. As for the delicate perfumed cream, it is difficult to refine and cannot be produced in quant.i.ty, either. The current model is the limit.”

Bai Jing frowned. “Qing Zhui, talk to your man. Have a pillow-talk.”

Qing Zhui laughed and said, “We don't even sleep together. How can I have a pillow-talk? I can talk in his ear.” With these words, she suddenly leaned over Ning Tao's ear and blew.

Ning Tao gave a jerk and said helplessly, “We're in the street. Watch your image, will you?”

In fact, many people were looking at them with curiosity or envy.

Bai Jing didn't give a d.a.m.n about the pa.s.sers-by's eyes. She said, “Ning Tao, think about it. You can't make money from that clinic. Qing Zhui told me that you cured some patients and then gave them money. Regardless of how wasteful it is, the question is how long can the pattern last? Cultivation is really expensive. Maybe there will come a time when you need to spend a lot of money. What will you do then? Your delicate perfumed cream can actually be diluted. Instead of ma.s.s production, we can do high-end customization and just make money from the rich.”

“I'll think about it,” said Ning Tao. Then he asked, “What do you know about Bai Sheng's method of taking advantage of money to cultivate?”

Bai Jing shook her head. “There's a lot he hasn't told me.”

They walked and talked until they came to the parking lot. Ning Tao handed the shopping bags to Bai Jing and Qing Zhui, then went into the parking lot to ride out his electric bicycle, the G.o.d's Will. He was about to ask Qing Zhui and Bai Jing to get on when some teenagers came along. One of the tall, thin boys handed him a leaflet and then expressed something in sign language.

Ning Tao didn't know sign language. He glanced at the leaflet in his hand, only to find that it was not a flyer, but a very unusual missing person notice. There were five pictures printed on it. All were girls. The oldest was 19 and the youngest was 15. The ident.i.ty information on the missing person notice showed that the five girls were all students of a school for the deaf.

Ning Tao naturally thought of the two bad guys, Zhang Weibiao and Zhang Lei, who were killed by Qing Zhui, and the missing girls he rescued. Zhang Weibiao and Zhang Lei were dead. It wasn't long ago. Why were five more girls missing? Besides, it was targeting girls in the school for the deaf.

Qing Zhui and Bai Jing came over, and Bai Jing asked, “What did they give you?”

Ning Tao replied, “Missing person notice. By the way, do you know the sign language?”

“No. Who's going to learn that?” Bai Jing said.

Ning Tao told the tall, thin guy who sent him the missing person notice, “There's too little information on it. Do you have a pen and paper? I'd like to ask you some questions. I want to help you, and I need more information.” As he spoke, he wrote with one finger, making signs on the missing person notice.

It was an easy body language. The tall, thin boy nodded and then made a gesture at a girl. The schoolgirl unpacked her backpack and took a pen and paper from it.

Then a Maserati arrived at the gate of the parking lot. Ning Tao and some deaf students were in its way. The person driving the Maserati stuck his head out, honked his horn and said rudely, “Get out of the way. It's not quality. What are you doing in the way?”

Several deaf students were so focused on Ning Tao, who was willing to help them, that they didn't notice a car honking and someone yelling at them. How could they hear a trumpet when they couldn't hear the thunder?

A woman suddenly leaned out of the window and scolded, “Are you deaf? Get out of the way!”

The voice sounded familiar. Ning Tao looked at the source of the sound and immediately saw a familiar face.

The woman in the Maserati's pa.s.senger seat was Xue Bao'er.

But Xue Bao'er didn't see Ning Tao because Ning Tao was surrounded by a group of deaf students.

Qing Zhui and Bai Jing saw Xue Bao'er at the same time. They exchanged glances and walked to Xue Bao'er. That day at the Prosperous House, Xue Bao'er and Li Xiaofeng slandered Ning Tao together, and what they said was intolerable to the ear. Now that they happened to meet her, how could they not greet her?

Ning Tao knew what they were going to do, and he reminded them, “Don't go too far, both of you.”

“Got it,” Qing Zhui answered.

Ning Tao got off the electric car and gestured to those deaf students to follow him. These deaf students couldn't understand his body language, so he had to push the electric car aside. Those deaf students understood what he meant and followed him.

Xue Bao'er still didn't recognize Ning Tao, but she did accidentally recognize Bai Jing who was walking toward her. She paused for a moment and then said excitedly, “Miss Bai? Brother Xin talked to us about you at dinner. He's not far away yet. I'll call him right now and have him come over. You can have a good talk.”

Xue Bao'er got out of the car and reached into her bag for her phone.

The corners of Bai Jing's mouth turned up in a slight smile.
