w.a.n.g Guofeng's face flushed with rage when he returned back to his room, then he took out a condom from his pocket with a self-ridiculing smile. He initially intended to take a further step with his relations.h.i.+p with Liu Ruochen with this Three States Physician King Tournament, but reality had given him a resounding slap. A predator would never let go of its prey, his words to Liu Ruochen were just to vent out the dissatisfaction in his heart; it's unrealistic for him to let go of Liu Ruochen.
The reason why w.a.n.g Guofeng placed such importance on Liu Ruochen wasn't just her outstanding appearance and medical skills. It was because she's also the Sect Master of the Aqua Cloud Stream, and she had an important position in his plan to bring TCM to a greater height.
He initially planned to propose after winning in the Physician King Tournament, since it's unlikely for Liu Ruochen to refuse him in such a grand spectacle. After that, he would kiss Liu Ruochen before the entire country that made the two of them the ideal couple to the ma.s.ses.
But it has all gone down the drain because of Su Tao's appearance.
w.a.n.g Guofeng hated Su Tao, he never expected the lecturer from Hanzhou's branch university would become his greatest obstacle. If he could make a choice again, he would do everything he could to eliminate the threat while he still could.
w.a.n.g Guofeng came to the window's ledge and opened the bottle of mineral water, taking two gulps to ease the internal heat in his body. Suddenly, his phone rang, stunning him. He hoped that it was from Liu Ruochen, but when he answered the call, a resounding voice rang out from the other side, "Brother Guofeng, am I bothering you by calling you at this timing?"
Knitting his brows, w.a.n.g Guofeng responded, "Bai Fan, stop beating around the bush. Cut the unconventional greetings between us."
Bai Fan sighed as he shook his head. "Pretty arrogant for someone who was pulled down from the divine altar."
"If you don't want to get to the main topic, then I'll hang my phone now." w.a.n.g Guofeng coldly replied. Bai Fan had poked the sore spot.
Bai Fan laughed, "Just joking. I heard that you're partic.i.p.ating in the Three States Physician King Tournament, so I called you to offer my best wishes!"
w.a.n.g Guofeng felt his mood turning better as he replied, "I'm afraid that you didn't call me for such a simple reason. Speak, what scheme do you have in mind?"
Rubbing the mustache that he had newly kept, Bai Fan said in a solemn tone, "I want to talk about us cooperating for a project, how can that be considered a scheme?"
News had already spread about Bai Fan imprisoning his master. Although Xu Tiande's character was bad, TCM paid great importance to the practice of honoring one's master and respect his teachings; a day as master, a father for life. Although Bai Fan had become the new Medicine King, his reputation was still ruined due to him betraying his master. It wasn't wise for w.a.n.g Guofeng to cooperate with Bai Fan, but he knew that, sometimes, he couldn't resort to the proper ways to achieve his dream or to take revenge.
Letting out a breath, w.a.n.g Guofeng said, "Stop the suspense!"
"I investigated Su Tao, and he has recently established a cosmetic company, the Three Flavour Cosmetics International with investments from other sources. They're focusing mainly on skincare products, and their initial start has been a success." Bai Fan briefly paused before he continued, "The predecessor planted the tree, while the successors enjoy the breeze. Since someone has opened this market, why don't we follow the trend?"
w.a.n.g Guofeng's eyes lit up as he replied, "You're saying to establish a cosmetics company, too?"
