485: Chapter 478: She is Sick 485: Chapter 478: She is Sick Elder Zhang and Elder Huang, along with the others, stayed in Liuyuan County for a few days before finally leaving.
Jiang Meixian’s condition, the advanced dementia, had basically been cured, but as for recuperating her health, that was a long-term process that couldn’t provide immediate results.
During these days, Chen Hai had been extremely busy.
With his mother just having regained consciousness, there were many things that he needed to handle.
Elder Zhang and Elder Huang were very interested in the Soul Awakening Technique that Chen Hai had performed.
Chen Hai had exchanged knowledge with them several times on this matter.
Even though they couldn’t borrow any mana and were unable to perform the technique themselves,
they remained intensely interested during the discussions about it, listening avidly to what Chen Hai explained.
While they were indeed experts in medical skills, when it came to spells, Chen Hai was the true specialist in that field.
Since ancient times there was the saying of ‘medicine, divination, and astrology’; traditional Chinese medicine could be considered one of the branches extended from Taoist Skill.
Through these exchanges with Elder Zhang and Elder Huang, Chen Hai had also learned a lot.
After they returned to the Capital City, Chen Hai finally had a bit of free time.
He reserved a private room at the Hualin Tea House, not far from the Eastern Pearl Community, and with one phone call, he asked Sun Jinzhong, Jiang Dalong, and a few others to come out.
Knowing that he had been busy the last few days, and since the last phone call from Sun Jinzhong, they hadn’t gathered together.
As for what exactly was going on with the Japanese woman Inoue Keiko, Chen Hai had always been curious to know.
Tong Daqiang was the quickest to arrive.
Just ten or twenty minutes after Chen Hai’s call, he had already reached the Hualin Tea House and the private room where Chen Hai was.
As for Sun Jinzhong and Jiang Dalong, they dawdled and didn’t arrive until half an hour later.
The two men looked utterly disheveled, and their way of walking seemed somewhat odd.
Especially Sun Jinzhong, who had barely sat down in the chair inside the private room when he immediately started scratching furiously at the crotch of his pants.
“Brother Zhong, the goddess you’ve longed for, you finally got your hands on her.”
“You and Brother Long should be beaming with joy, right?”
“The two of you look like there’s trouble…”
Chen Hai hadn’t spoken yet when Tong Daqiang, stepping ahead, jokingly teased the two men.
“Goddess my ass, that woman’s sick; she screwed me over big time,” Sun Jinzhong cursed as soon as Inoue Keiko was mentioned.
“I remember, you called me that day, bragging, saying you and Brother Long were still feeling weak in the knees even though it was already noon!”
“What happened?
Did you go see her again that night, and she beat the crap out of you?” Laughing, Chen Hai teased.
He remembered very clearly the things Sun Jinzhong had said on the phone that day.
From his tone, one could tell just how excited he had been at the time.
“I did promise that Japanese woman that if she spent a night with me, I would get her that agreement from cousin Chen Hai’s hands.”
“I already got my pay.
I was just bluffing her; I wouldn’t go looking for her again.”
“That day, Brother Long and I turned off our phones and headed to the city.”
“We originally thought that the Japanese woman couldn’t possibly stay in Liuyuan County for more than a few days.
Brother Long and I would have fun in the city for a couple of days, and by the time we got back, she would’ve probably returned to Japan.”
“But who would’ve thought, just two days later, my privates started burning painfully, and pus began to ooze out…”
“I used to frequent that streetwalker in the alley near the market, only a few dozen yuan a shot, and I never once caught anything.”
“But that Japanese woman, calling herself a goddess, pshaw…”
Seemingly filled with a bitter itch against Inoue Keiko, Sun Jinzhong spoke again.
His words left Tong Daqiang and Chen Hai dumbfounded.
Turns out, when he said Inoue Keiko was sick, he wasn’t talking about her being mentally ill; she truly was sick in certain respects.
“No way, Brother Zhong, she’s such a rare top-grade woman, how could she have that kind of disease?”
“Are you sure it was her who infected you?”
“I remember after you broke up with Zhang Xia, you went around looking after business in those shady places, didn’t you?”
Tong Daqiang seemed to have his world turned upside down, looking at Sun Jinzhong with disbelief and asking for confirmation.
“A mistake?
How could it be?”
“If it was just me getting sick, I could still argue that it was an earlier infection.”
“The problem is, Brother Long got sick just like me; after he came out of the Bitter Kiln, he’s been preoccupied with KTV business.”
“Apart from that day, when he and I gambled with that Japanese woman, he hasn’t touched any other woman.”
“We both got infected at the same time, if not from that Japanese woman, then from whom?”
Sun Jinzhong spoke again with a face full of discontent.
Compared to the shameless Sun Jinzhong, Jiang Dalong, once considered equally illustrious, obviously had a much thinner skin.
When Sun Jinzhong brought him up, Jiang’s face turned red and his head almost dipped into his pants.
“Look at you now, swaggering around, I told you to find a woman and settle down, but no, you had to mess around!”
“It’s just a common STI, you’re lucky it’s not AIDS.”
“They say a man won’t learn until he’s burned, let’s see if you’ll still be sex-driven when you see women in the future.”
Chen Hai jibed at Sun Jinzhong with a mock-serious glare.
As for Jiang Dalong, Chen Hai didn’t say much.
After all, he knew exactly what had happened that day.
Since leaving the Bitter Kiln, Jiang hadn’t sought out any women and had immediately started working on the KTV, aiming to focus on his business earnestly.
Looking at these actions, it could be said that Wang Dalong, his cousin, actually had pretty good self-control.
That day, after drinking quite a bit and hearing from Sun Jinzhong about the opportunity, he felt the chances of success were high and the risk low, so he joined Sun Jinzhong for the ride.
To put it bluntly, if it weren’t for Sun Jinzhong’s influence, he wouldn’t have had such notions at all.
“Cousin, just normal walking makes my brother down there hurt like hell.”
“I padded it with a sanitary pad to make it slightly better.”
“I know you’ve got divine skills; do you have a way to help me get treated?” Sun Jinzhong approached Chen Hai with a teasing smile, probing for help.
“I’ve got Thunder Skill; I can help you remove the root of the disease.”
“With one slap, I guarantee even that thing of yours will turn to ash; want to give it a try?” Chen Hai responded with a roll of his eyes.
Let’s not mention that he can’t treat such an illness; even if he had spells specifically for it, he simply couldn’t be bothered to lend a hand.
In his view, with Sun Jinzhong’s personality, he wouldn’t learn his lesson without suffering some consequences.
“Turn into ash?
Then forget it, I’ll go to the hospital for treatment.” Sun Jinzhong retracted his head and laughed sheepishly.
Sure, the disease didn’t pose a life threat, but it was a hassle to deal with.
Just thinking about possibly having to abstain for a long time, his expression instantly turned as bitter as a gourd.
“And what about the woman?
Did you and Brother Long try to find her?” After pondering for a moment, Chen Hai asked.
“Of course we tried, but she has already checked out and left the Yujing Garden Hotel.”
Sun Jinzhong responded with a nod.
When Keiko Inoue had first met with Chen Hai, she had mentioned staying in Liuyuan County for at most another two days.
The incident with Sun Jinzhong and Wang Dalong was nothing more than a minor episode to her.
They thought they could easily fool her and succeed?
Perhaps Keiko Inoue had already known about her illness and was simply toying with Sun Jinzhong and Wang Dalong.
As for their claims of getting documents from Chen Hai, she had little hope in that and never took it seriously.
Otherwise, she would have stayed for another day or two, instead of leaving so cleanly.
