Chapter 790 - TCM Replacing Plastic Surgery
Can TCM change the most attractive part of women?
Naturally!
But does Su Tao have a way to do it?
Naturally!
However, his method is somewhat ambiguous. It might be fine if their relations.h.i.+p is that of an ordinary doctor and patient, but with his personal relations.h.i.+p with Gu Rushan, the process will definitely have his heart leaping.
“Let’s meet up when you’re free! I have to make a check before I can give you a conclusion.” Su Tao coughed as he replied awkwardly.
“Then let’s meet up this weekend! I don’t have anything scheduled.” Gu Rushan was genuinely out of ideas. Her photoshoot will be two weeks from now, and if she doesn’t get it resolved as soon as possible, the photoshoot will become awkward.
After hanging her call with Su Tao, Gu Rushan helplessly as she stood up and entered the bathroom. When she removed her s.h.i.+rt and bra, it revealed the outlines of her abdomen without any tiny tinge of fats due to the fact that she has been exercising frequently.
Generally speaking, someone with her figure isn’t any inferior compared to professional models for undergarment photoshoots.
However, she locked her brows together as she twisted her body before removing a pink silicone padding from her left bra. Her chest isn"t well-balanced. Although it’s not too obvious, anyone can still tell that the left is slightly smaller compared to the right.
Furthermore, it’s a normal situation for most women. Because it involves the private part, it can be easily covered.
But Gu Rushan is going for undergarment photoshoots, and it will be easy for her to reveal her flaws. Furthermore, since it’s a sensitive position, Gu Rushan wanted to display her best to the public.
Then again, she also wishes to make herself bigger like every woman to look more charming. It’s the same logic as how all men wish to be huge ding dong. (¬‿¬)
On the next morning, Su Tao came to look for Yan Wujin, who was fis.h.i.+ng by the lakeside.
When Su Tao placed the soy milk and fried breadsticks beside, Yan Wujin handed the fis.h.i.+ng rod over to Su Tao, “Take it. Don’t let the fish run away!”
Glancing at the bucket nearby, Su Tao saw several fishes in it along with a three-inch black fish and smiled, “Today’s harvest seems good.”
The black fish can be cut into slices before mixing into some ingredients to create a decent delicacy.
Yan Wujin grinned as he started eating like every ordinary grandpa in the village. At this moment, he looks nothing like the Fire Deity.
“Fis.h.i.+ng is to satisfy the innate desire in the heart. You will feel extremely satisfied when the fish gets hooked.” Yan Wujin spoke before he suddenly knitted his brows and urged, “A fish bit the bait!”
Holding onto the fis.h.i.+ng rod, Su Tao gently shook it and it showed no sign of a fish biting the hook. But just when he was hesitating, the fis.h.i.+ng float suddenly went down as Su Tao immediately held his breath and grabbed onto the fis.h.i.+ng rod tightly.
“It’s a big one. Spin it around the lake a few rounds before pulling it up when it’s exhausted.” Yan Wujin instructed as he continued eating his breakfast.
Following Yan Wujin’s instruction, Su Tao made the fish go in circles before pulling after the fish was exhausted. A fish at the size of roughly seven to eight inches drew an arc in the air before it fell near the bucket.
The fish did not let go of the bait after it was brought out from the lake and started splas.h.i.+ng about. Walking over to the fish, Su Tao removed the hook before he tossed the fish into the bucket.
At this moment, Yan Wujin was already done with his breakfast as he patted his hands and smiled, “Isn’t fis.h.i.+ng interesting?”
“I’ll go into fis.h.i.+ng as well when I’m old.” Su Tao handed the fis.h.i.+ng rod back to Yan Wujin.
Hearing Su Tao’s words, Yan Wujin laughed as he pointed at Su Tao’s nose and asked sourly, “Are you calling me old indirectly?”
“How would I dare to call you old?” Su Tao chuckled before his tone suddenly became stern as he asked, “Is there any news on Yuan Lan and Liu Jianwei?”
“No news is the best news!” Yan Wujin shook his head with a bitter smile and added, “When members of the Fire Beacon are engaged in a mission, they will not send any news back to the organisation before it’s completed. If the two of them return safely, it implies that they’ve successfully completed the mission. But if they go missing without any news for a long time, it means that they’ve failed the mission.”
“I will never be able to come in contact with this side of the society if I’ve not come in contact with the Fire Beacon.” Su Tao sighed.
“Peace and happiness comes with a price of a group of people protecting it away from the eyes of the public. You wouldn’t blame me for dragging you into this mess, right? Because you’ve become a member of the Fire Beacon, you’re destined to witness separation by death.” Yan Wujin sighed.
Shrugging his shoulders, Su Tao replied, “As a physician, I’ve witnessed my fair share of separation by death.”
“Fearless when facing death, this is the reason why I’ve chosen you.” Yan Wujin smiled as he sighed.
“It’s a heavy burden.” Su Tao commented after a brief silence.
Patting on Su Tao’s shoulder, Yan Wujin replied, “I believe that you’re capable of it.”
Thereafter, the two of them fell into a brief silence as they faced the breeze.
“I’ve received the Dragon Emperor’s invitation to meet up with him.” Yan Wujin suddenly broke the silence.
“It doesn’t sound like an ordinary meeting. There seems to be a battle awaiting you.” Su Tao gave Yan Wujin a deep glance.
“In my lifetime, I’ve been gravely injured twice, and it’s all done by that old fellow. We have a battle destined between us, but you don’t have to be too worried about it. The two of us are pretty much equal, and he will have to pay the price if he wants to injure me.” Yan Wujin laughed.
“The two of you don’t have to do this!” Su Tao sighed inwardly. The meeting between the Fire Deity and Dragon Emperor might seem to be simple, but it’s actually a form of ceremony that the two of them will retire and hand it over to the next generation.
“I’ve been in this position for too long, and times are constantly changing. Young people like you are required to take over the management of the Fire Beacon.” Yan Wujin replied solemnly as he continued, “The Fire Beacon can be described as a giant with many prideful and untamed people in it. So if you want to win their respect, you will have to show your charm. But since you can make Yuan Lan look at you in a new light, I believe that you can use similar methods to win the rest over.”
Su Tao knew that his understanding of the Fire Beacon was just restricted to Yuan Lan, Hei Jin, and Tang s.h.i.+. There are still many members in the Fire Beacon that he hasn’t met.
Due to the fact that he has not officially taken over the Fire Beacon as the new Fire Deity, many information are kept secret to him.
Knowing that it’s inevitable for the meeting between the Fire Deity and Dragon Emperor, Su Tao reminded, “Take care of yourself.”
“I won’t be able to defeat the Dragon Emperor if I hold this thought!” Yan Wujin smiled.
Letting out a sigh inwardly, Su Tao started feeling sorrow in his heart for some reason.
In a blink of an eye, Yan Wujin caught another fish as he continued, “I have already taught you everything that I know, and your attainment in martial arts isn’t any inferior compared to me. You will have to depend on yourself for your future path and Fire Beacon’s future now.”
“I won’t embarra.s.s you!” Su Tao squeezed out a smile.
Although he was nominally the disciple of Jiang Qinghan, he’s actually the disciple of Yan Wujin.
Sitting together with Yan Wujin by the lakeside the whole morning, the two of them seemed like a family.
In the process, Yan Wujin shared many of his stories when he was younger, allowing Su Tao to gain a deeper understanding of the former. After all, not everyone can do what Yan Wujin did, putting his entire lifetime in danger to support the stability of society in the background.
If it wasn’t for the Fire Beacon, China’s economy would have collapsed decades ago. Furthermore, many people are putting their lives in danger secretly to maintain it.
The current international disputes are no longer limited to firearms, but a battle of finance. If a country is to stand strong and make constant progress, they will need the foundation of the economy to back it up.
Take the Seven Mountain Virus incident as an example. If they could not control the epidemic in time, not only will their country suffer losses, but their economy will also collapse. At that time, not only will society stop progress, but it will also start to fall back.
Thereafter, by making use of some rumors, it will be easy to create chaos in China, allowing people to take advantage of chaos to purchase shares frantically. Thereafter, by dumping the shares after the economy stabilises, they will be able to make huge profits.
However, the innocent folks will be the ones suffering the losses.
China is powerful, and there are many people eyeing on it, trying to make a profit through the chaos.
Returning home with Yan Wujin, Su Tao started to butcher the fish and made a sumptuous lunch. When Yan Sha returned home after school and saw Su Tao, she was pleasantly surprised.
Retrieving an ornament from his pocket, Yan Sha smiled, “You bought it from Italy?”
“Yeah! It’s rare for me to make a trip overseas, so I naturally have to buy a souvenir for you.” Su Tao smiled as he nodded his head.
“What did you buy for my mom?” Yan Sha asked a surprising question.
“That’s a secret!” Su Tao decided to put Yan Sha in suspense.
“You’re boring!” Yan Sha rolled her eyes as she started eating, eating much faster compared to usual.
The current school that she’s in is the best Senior High School in Hanzhou City, and everyone there are practically elites. Hence, Yan Sha has been feeling immense pressure in her studies.
After Yan Sha swept up the food, Jiang Qinghan suddenly came in from the courtyard. When she saw Su Tao, she was also somewhat surprised and smiled, “I came back to take something, and I never expected that you’re also here.”
By the side, Yan Sha quickly pulled Su Tao’s arm and smiled, “My mom’s back now, so can you reveal what you got her from Italy?”
Feeling helpless about Yan Sha, Su Tao took out an exquisite wooden box from his pocket with a pair of ear studs in it.
Seeing the crystals embedded on the ear studs, Jiang Qinghan felt somewhat emotional. However, she still remained indifferent as she spoke out, “I don’t wear these.”
“I know that you don’t have a habit of wearing ear studs, but I feel that this style suits you.” Su Tao smiled.
“Mom, you don’t like it?” Yan Sha smiled as she continued, “Then can I have it?”
“You’re still a child, so why are you wearing ear studs?” Jiang Qinghan seized the box away from her daughter and entered her room. When she unlocked her drawer, the drawer stored all the gifts that Su Tao gave her.
Jiang Qinghan suddenly realised at this moment that she actually accepted so many gifts from Su Tao in such a short period of time.
Humans aren’t without emotions, and Jiang Qinghan only accepted the gifts from Su Tao because she had considered him a family.
“Stay here for dinner!” Jiang Qinghan found the doc.u.ment she needed and rushed out the room.
“Alright!” Su Tao promised with a smile. At the same time, he noticed that there’s a change in Jiang Qinghan’s att.i.tude towards him.
