City's Best Divine Doctor
Chapter 1984 - 1944: Shichahai
Could it really be Ye Feng who ordered someone to kill Ye Qiu?
Cao Long and Young Master Zhou really couldn’t believe it, but why would Ye Feng want Ye Qiu dead?
"Dr. Ye, why does he want to kill you?"
"Who knows."
Ye Qiu definitely wouldn’t admit to having ties with the Ye Family.
Moreover, he really doesn’t have any connection to Ye Qiu, but perhaps his former self did.
After slapping Ye Feng like that, Ye Qiu didn’t know why he was actually a bit happy. He felt he must have been influenced by the soul of his predecessor.
Although their souls and consciousness have long merged into one, Ye Qiu knows that such hatred can never be eliminated.
Returning to Ye Qiu’s private room, Cao Ling and Liu Lingxiu were chatting there, unaware of where Ye Qiu had just gone.
"Ye Qiu, where did you go?" Cao Ling asked.
"Went to beat up a loser."
Loser?
Cao Ling didn’t know who Ye Qiu meant by loser.
When the waitress brought over dishes, Cao Long began to call everyone to dinner. After dinner, it was already past eight in the evening.
The time was still early. After Cao Long settled the bill, Ye Qiu and Liu Lingxiu and the others walked out from this restaurant.
"Dr. Ye, why don’t you all go back and rest? I’m afraid it’s dangerous outside," Cao Long said following them.
Right now, Ye Qiu has not only angered the leader of the Crown Prince’s Faction in the Capital City but also Ye Feng from the Ye Family. These two are arguably the most powerful among the young gentry in the Capital City.
If an ordinary person were to offend either one, they might not even know how they died.
Unexpectedly, Ye Qiu has managed to provoke both of them simultaneously.
"Just those few ants, I’m really not afraid of them. Do you guys want to go for a walk?" Ye Qiu looked at Cao Ling and the others and asked.
After resting for an afternoon, they were also feeling energized.
However, they were worried about Ye Qiu’s safety. Now seeing Ye Qiu wasn’t afraid, naturally, they weren’t worried either.
"I do," Cao Ling said.
Liu Lingxiu and the others didn’t mind.
"Young Master Cao, which place has a nice night view, suitable for dating?"
"There are a few places. You’ve been to Beihai already, right next to it is Shichahai, which is nice."
Actually, these few lakes are basically connected together.
The night scene and lighting there are quite nice, suitable for strolling and playing.
"Then let’s go there."
As Ye Qiu drove towards Shichahai, Cao Long initially didn’t want to go, planning to go back and prepare for Third Great-Grandfather’s birthday tomorrow.
This can be considered a great event for the Cao Family.
According to Third Great-Grandfather’s situation, a funeral was supposed to be arranged, but unexpectedly, it turned into a celebration, which added joy upon joy, inviting many big figures from the Capital City.
"Young Master Cao, let’s go and take a look as well."
Young Master Zhou and the others were increasingly unable to understand this Ye Qiu from Jinling; first, he taught the leader of the Crown Prince’s Faction a lesson and then fiercely slapped Ye Feng.
Moreover, now it seems like Ye Qiu really has nothing to worry about.
"Cao Long, do you think Ye Qiu is just good at medical skills?"
"I’m afraid not, he definitely has some connection with the Ye Family, but he just doesn’t admit it."
"You mean?"
"Isn’t it because he doesn’t admit?"
These young scions of the Capital City immediately became interested. If that’s the case, wouldn’t this Ye Qiu be just like them?
It’s just that Ye Qiu is much more formidable, not even considering the leader of the Crown Prince’s Faction and Ye Feng at all.
This is undoubtedly something very admirable in their eyes.
Previously, they didn’t hang out with the Crown Prince and the others, naturally not wanting to be part of their circle, feeling like it’s not their group.
Though they are all second-generation wealthy and influential, there are actually many divisions within.
Ye Qiu drove ahead, using GPS navigation heading to Shichahai’s nearby parking lot. Upon arrival, he parked the car, and as he got out, Ye Qiu directly held Xiaomai and Liu Lingxiu’s hands.
Liu Lingxiu didn’t mind, but Xiaomai was naturally quite surprised.
Concerning Ye Qiu and Cao Ling’s relationship, Cao Ling felt somewhat different in her heart.
Cao Ling and Lin Xiang followed behind, and once out of the parking lot, they already saw Shichahai.
Shichahai is the Capital City’s historical and cultural tourist scenic area, historical and cultural conservation area. Located in the city’s central district, Xicheng District, close to Beijing city’s central axis.
The water area covers 336,000 square meters, connected in a single line with Zhongnanhai water area. It is the only open-type scenic area with an expansive water surface in the inner city of the Capital City and is the city’s largest, most well-preserved historical district, occupying a unique position in the Capital City’s urban planning and construction history.
Shichahai includes the three water areas of Qianhai, Houhai, and Xihai (also known as Jishuitan) and nearby areas; together with the "Three Front Seas," it resonates as the "Three Rear Seas." It is also colloquially named "Ten Temple Seas" due to the original ten Buddhist temples surrounding the area. Since the Qing Dynasty, it has become a place for entertainment and summer retreat, recognized as one of Yanjing’s scenic beauty spots. Many ancient buildings in Shichahai scenic area hold significant importance in the development history of Capital City’s urban and political culture, represented by places like the Prince Gong Mansion and gardens, Prince Chun Mansion, the Bell and Drum Towers, Deshengmen Arrow Tower, Guanghua Temple, Huitong Temple, Hui Xian Hall, etc.
The renowned "Beijing Objects Overview" praised Shichahai’s charm with comparisons to "West Lake in Spring, Qinhuai in Summer, Dongting in Autumn." With its picturesque scenery, Shichahai scenic area is acclaimed as "The Water Village of the North."
With the increasing number of tourists, the area gradually developed cultural shops, snack streets, and bars, thus becoming one of the cultural streets of the Capital City.
Actually, in Ye Qiu’s view, all these seas are essentially just a lake, an artificial lake left over from ancient times. Yet, now arriving with Liu Lingxiu and the others, he discovered it was quite nice, similar to the night scene around the Qinhuai River: lights and lanterns everywhere.
Moreover, the ambiance here is very good; inside, only walking is allowed, with no other vehicles, making a walk along the riverbank quite comfortable.
On both sides, there are quite a few snacks, drinks, and such.
Stroll around and look; when tired, one can stop to rest.
And walking around the riverbank takes quite a bit of time.
By ten at night, seeing they all seemed to have had enough, Ye Qiu knew it was time to go back and rest.
Just now Liu Lingxiu and Lin Xiang had been taking pictures all along, except for Cao Ling who didn’t, though she occasionally watched Ye Qiu. Since their intimate relationship developed rapidly, Cao Ling’s thoughts had been focused on Ye Qiu.
If strolling alone here with Ye Qiu, she would definitely be very happy, but now with so many people, she just felt it was dull, not seeing anything interesting.
"Let’s go, we should head back," Ye Qiu said to Liu Lingxiu and the others.
"Dr. Ye, come to the Cao Mansion early tomorrow."
"We’ll head over after breakfast."
