"I have booked a private room at the Capital Club. Let’s celebrate properly today. Starting tomorrow, you’ll begin your intense studies, so enjoy this day of relaxation," Zhu Yanyi said to Miao Pu and the other two students. "Although you are my students, I do not want lazy people. As doctors, you must have medical ethics."
"Yes," the three students replied, remembering Zhu Yanyi’s words.
Zhu Yanyi led them to the Capital Club. With Yan Aohan driving, there was no worry about getting lost. Gu Jingtian and Dong Bo’cao drove themselves.
Upon arriving, Zhu Yanyi’s group went directly to the sixth floor, where her reserved room was. The staff at the Capital Club knew that the little divine doctor, Zhu Yanyi, was the sister of their madam and the niece of their Seventh Master. Therefore, no checks were needed. Even if Zhu Yanyi hadn’t notified them a day in advance, they would still have provided a private room.
Inside the room, everyone was happy because the day was special. They enjoyed themselves until it was time to leave.
Just as they walked out of the Capital Club, Zhu Yanyi’s gaze drifted. She seemed to see a familiar figure. She paused slightly. Yan Aohan noticed her looking in a direction where there was nothing and asked curiously, "What are you looking at?"
Zhu Yanyi shook her head slightly. "I thought I saw Brother Cheng Xu. Isn’t she supposed to be away from the Capital?"
Yan Aohan’s eyes flashed. "Based on his current work, he should be in Modu." He thought for a moment and said, "I’ll have someone investigate. It’s best if I was mistaken. If there’s something else, we’ll find him first." Cheng Xu was not a reckless person. If he was in the Capital, he must have a reason.
"Okay," Zhu Yanyi nodded. She didn’t think Cheng Xu came to the Capital Club for fun. If it was her, something must have happened.
Yan Aohan didn’t say who he would send. Zhu Yanyi knew that since Yan Aohan had taken charge, he would find out.
Unexpectedly, before Yan Aohan could investigate, Cheng Xu came to them.
Zhu Yanyi saw Cheng Xu sitting opposite her. She raised an eyebrow, handed the assignments to Miao Pu and the others, and told them to monitor the patients’ conditions. Then she sat down across from Cheng Xu.
"Brother Cheng Xu, why are you in the Capital?" Zhu Yanyi asked curiously.
"I came to the Capital to look for projects," Cheng Xu said, not hiding his purpose.
"So you went to the Capital Club?" Zhu Yanyi looked at her, understanding.
"Yes," Cheng Xu admitted without arguing.
"Brother Cheng Xu, if you’re treating people for projects, you could go elsewhere. The Capital Club is expensive. It’s not suitable for your current position. Once you overspend, it’s hard to recover." Since she was family, Zhu Yanyi reminded her.
Cheng Xu sighed. "I went to the Capital Club mainly to find someone."
"Find someone? But you said you came for projects," Zhu Yanyi was confused.
Cheng Xu sighed again. "I came to the Capital for projects, but I accidentally saw someone working at the Capital Club. So I went to find her."
"Her? Is it a man or a woman?" Zhu Yanyi asked with curiosity.
"A woman. She was my college classmate. We dated in college. Later, she said she was going abroad, so we broke up. I didn’t expect her to be a waitress at the Capital Club. I want to know why she is here." Cheng Xu didn’t hide anything. "You know, university graduates like us are assigned jobs. Except for me, who had family help to reach my current position, other classmates should have their own jobs. But she didn’t take hers. Instead, she became a waitress at the Capital Club. The most surprising part is that when she broke up with me, she said she was going abroad for study."
"So you went to the Capital Club?" Zhu Yanyi understood. "I never thought much of you before. I didn’t expect Brother Cheng Xu to be such a romantic figure."
"Don’t laugh at me. I just want her information. I want to know what happened to her," Cheng Xu said directly.
Zhu Yanyi looked at Cheng Xu seriously. "Even if you know what happened to her, what do you plan to do?"
Cheng Xu was stunned. "If she has difficulties, I will naturally help."
"I didn’t know Brother Cheng Xu had such great compassion," Zhu Yanyi said with a hint of mockery. "No matter who she is, everyone walks their own path. How can you help? Since she originally planned to go abroad, it shows she has ability. Now being at the Capital Club means either her family has fallen, or she encountered special difficulties and needs the Capital Club as a stepping stone."
The Capital Club is a place for gold-diggers. The people who enter are either rich or powerful. Ordinary people cannot enter. So, if ordinary people work there as waitresses or in similar roles, they usually have a purpose. They want to use the Capital Club as a stepping stone to improve their lives.
Especially for girls who are poor and want a good life, they need a good backer. The Capital Club is the best place to find such a backer. Those who can enter the Capital Club generally have money and power. If they can attach themselves to such people, it would be suitable.
Hearing Zhu Yanyi’s words, Cheng Xu was stunned. She had thought of many possibilities but hadn’t considered the girl’s purpose at the Capital Club. "Maybe she has her own hardships."
"Brother Cheng Xu, you are never naive. If you say this today, I won’t tell Godfather and Godmother, or they will worry for you. But you should think about it yourself. As for the person’s true purpose, I will have someone investigate," Zhu Yanyi said, then looked at Yan Aohan.
Yan Aohan looked at Cheng Xu. "I have already sent someone to investigate. If you have no other business, wait. The news should come in about ten minutes."
Cheng Xu knew Yan Aohan’s ability. "Then I’ll wait. I really want to know his purpose."
Zhu Yanyi rarely saw Cheng Xu like this. But she knew that the feeling of first love from youth is often the best. She hoped that girl was also a beautiful memory.
