Chapter 1641: Chapter 1641: Anger
The next morning at breakfast, Ouyang Feifei asked Luo Ziling with a puzzled expression, “Did you go out last night?”
After Luo Ziling gave her a massage the previous night, she quickly fell asleep and slept soundly.
She didn’t know that Luo Ziling had gone out later; it was Wang Qing who told her.
When Ouyang Feifei got up, Luo Ziling was already dressed, and she didn’t know whether he had gotten up early or had just returned.
The night before, Luo Ziling repeatedly instructed Yang Xiaodong and Wang Zhenjun not to tell anyone about Chen Xiaoyi coming to Tokyo, to avoid trouble.
Yang Xiaodong and Wang Zhenjun of course knew that if the Chen Family found out about Chen Xiaoyi coming to Tokyo, there would definitely be trouble.
If others found out, Chen Xiaoyi’s behavior would also be criticized.
Therefore, without Luo Ziling’s orders, they knew what to do.
Wang Qing did not learn about Luo Ziling’s whereabouts from Yang Xiaodong; she thought Luo Ziling’s secrecy was related to the assassination attempt, so she didn’t ask much.
Ouyang Feifei just casually asked, as she didn’t know that Chen Xiaoyi was in Tokyo or even thought she might come.
“I went out for a bit due to some matters,” Luo Ziling vaguely replied, “There were a lot of things to handle, couldn’t be helped.”
Seeing that Luo Ziling didn’t want to say more, Ouyang Feifei didn’t ask further.
After breakfast, Ouyang Feifei went back to her room to dress up. The originally high and mighty CEO of Lingyun Group transformed into a charming and attractive office lady after putting on makeup. However, her aura was still unmistakable, and anyone could tell she had a different status at a glance.
To avoid trouble, Wang Qing also stayed close to Luo Ziling and Ouyang Feifei.
Now, Luo Ziling’s entourage was even more prominent than yesterday, with two women of significant presence by his side.
Yesterday, Luo Ziling also had two women by his side, but Shanque didn’t show intimacy with him and was not by his side most of the time. Moreover, Shanque’s appearance was obviously not as outstanding as Wang Qing’s. Consequently, when Ouyang Feifei and Wang Qing got on the bus with Luo Ziling, all eyes were on them. Their gazes were filled with envy, jealousy, and resentment, especially Gu Changwei, who felt extremely frustrated.
This time, he didn’t bring any women with him because he needed to stay by his grandfather’s side.
Moreover, he understood the Japanese language, so he didn’t need a translator.
Unexpectedly, Luo Ziling acted so high-profile, bringing along so many women, and even changed them overnight.
Seeing Ouyang Feifei and Wang Qing’s looks and figures, Gu Changwei couldn’t help but feel restless.
“Damn it, this is too infuriating,” Gu Changwei thought, contemplating “teaching” Luo Ziling a lesson to curb his arrogance.
At the very least, he wanted to expose Luo Ziling’s romantic adventures, letting everyone know he’s a playboy who changes girlfriends like changing clothes. Moreover, today he planned to showcase his own skills; his medical skills weren’t lacking, and he intended to surprise everyone during the skill showdown with the Japanese. This visit with his grandfather hadn’t allowed them to properly shine yet, which was quite frustrating.
On the bus, Commander Hu Wenjun announced the day’s schedule to everyone.
“This morning, the Japanese side informed us of a slight change in today’s itinerary,” Hu Wenjun explained with a bit of helplessness, “They initially planned for us to visit the affiliated hospital’s Traditional Chinese Medicine lab, but that activity has been canceled. The rest of the schedule remains unchanged.”
Actually, today’s itinerary was already completely different from the original plan.
Initially, the schedule included skill exchanges and showdowns with renowned Japanese traditional medicine experts yesterday, but yesterday’s event turned into a chaotic mess. Today’s original plan was to visit the lab of pharmacology and another Traditional Chinese Medicine Cultural Park. Besides visiting these places, the delegation would have the chance to tour other important labs or research institutes at Tokyo University Hospital.
But the Japanese side informed us last-minute that due to isolation reasons, the pharmacology lab wouldn’t accept any visitors today, so today’s arrangements were focused on the Traditional Chinese Medicine Cultural Park. Furthermore, the Japanese reception plan had changed multiple times.
“I have already informed the embassy about this issue and protested to the Japanese reception staff, but there’s no way to change today’s schedule,” Hu Wenjun said with a bit of resignation, “As far as I know, visiting the Traditional Chinese Medicine Cultural Park today is indeed the actual skill showdown. A large number of Japanese traditional medicine elite will be waiting for us there, and they will organize some traditional medical skills showdowns. The most famous Japanese traditional medicine expert Ishihara Tarou, along with his son and grandson, will also participate in today’s showdown.”
At this point, a delegation member sitting next to Hu Wenjun shouted loudly, “They just want to do everything possible to humiliate us today, try to win some showdowns, and save face. Commander Hu, is that the case?”
“It seems so,” Hu Wenjun acknowledged and then reminded the members, “No matter what, everyone must remain composed. If they insist on skill exchanges with us, we must respond calmly. No matter what, we cannot lose face.”
As he said this, Hu Wenjun glanced at Luo Ziling, but ultimately didn’t make any specific requests of him, instead saying tactfully, “To all the traditional medicine experts with specialties, if the Japanese challenge you, I hope you will give it your all and not hold back. This is a matter concerning our Huaxia’s dignity.”
Luo Ziling raised his hand, then stood up and asked, “Commander Hu, why is the Japanese side’s arrangement so messy? Are they lowering their status to make us think they lack quality, or do they look down on us? After yesterday, they already know our medical skills surpass theirs, and now they’re organizing a large-scale showdown today. Have they thought of some sinister means to harm us?”
Luo Ziling was actually speaking nonsense; he just wanted to stir up the delegation’s emotions.
The purpose of this visit, besides exchange and learning, of course included mutual skill competitions.
At the airport, both sides had expressed this intention, although Luo Ziling later repeatedly said that medical skills are not for competition but for saving lives, the showdown certainly couldn’t be avoided.
Luo Ziling thought that with his ability, he could defeat many Japanese experts, but he also knew he wasn’t omnipotent.
Moreover, he didn’t want this visit to become a stage for just his solo performance, otherwise everyone would definitely be unhappy.
Being high-profile is necessary, but it must have a limit.
Therefore, he must stimulate everyone’s fighting spirit.
His intention didn’t fail; after a bunch of nonsense, many members immediately became emotionally fired up, stating they must outperform the Japanese.
Seeing this situation, Hu Wenjun showed a satisfied smile, and Luo Ziling was almost the same.
They both anticipated that today’s showdown would be exciting.
