Urban Genius Divine Doctor

Chapter 280: Chapter 280: Special Gift

Li Yanxian was certainly an outstanding girl with a strong personality, but it was impossible for Wang Chenning to fall in love with her so quickly.

After all, he was a man of the world. In his latent soul, he had experienced plenty of exceptional women.

For the man he was now, liking a girl was easy enough, but falling in love with one was another matter entirely.

He liked Zhao Xiao’an, Yang Xiaofei, and Luo Yuqing, but if he had to say which one he truly loved, he couldn’t.

Women worship heroes and men adore beautiful women. The more prideful the person, the higher their standards. As for a woman who could conquer his proud heart... one had yet to appear.

’After subduing the soul of that otherworldly master, perhaps I’ll never experience a love that cuts to the bone in this lifetime.’

’I’m too exceptional, and I’ve experienced too much. It’s unlikely any girl could surprise me now!’

But when it came to his preferences in life, beautiful women were still at the top of the list!

’Maybe this is just the nature of a scumbag!’

And he had no desire to change it.

When Wang Chenning suddenly wrapped an arm around her waist, Li Yanxian was naturally a bit startled. But after a brief, instinctive struggle, she let him hold her.

"Your acting today is a little subpar!" she said with a hint of sarcasm. "If you want to get fresh with me, just say so. Don’t make it so melodramatic!"

"You really are one of a kind!" Wang Chenning leaned in, looking into Li Yanxian’s eyes. "Of all the girls I know, you have the strongest personality!"

"And of all the men I know, you’re the boldest!" Li Yanxian retorted, pinching the hand he had around her waist. "Too bad I can’t beat you in a fight, or I’d toss you into the Han River!"

Wang Chenning released her waist, smoothly took her hand, and continued walking without waiting for her reaction. "If you were the first girl I’d met after leaving Chang’an, you would have definitely been the first girl I liked."

"I don’t fall for that sweet talk!" Li Yanxian snapped, but she didn’t pull her hand away, letting Wang Chenning lead her. "I only respect successful people."

Wang Chenning smiled. "I’m already more successful than most people, and in the future, I’ll be more successful than anyone."

Li Yanxian still looked dismissive. "That routine of yours would work wonders on some naive little girl."

"With my current accomplishments, I already have a flock of girls crying and begging to marry me. Why would I need to waste my time tricking anyone?" Wang Chenning stopped and looked at Li Yanxian with a grin. "The women who work for me are sharp, emotionally intelligent, and don’t lack for looks or figures. Besides, quantity can make up for any slight deficiencies in quality."

"Fair point," Li Yanxian conceded. "Which is why being the wife of a man like you would be exhausting. In any case, I’ll never be interested."

Wang Chenning asked, "Have you ever had a boyfriend?"

"No." Li Yanxian shook her head. "Before you, I’d never met a guy who could make me look twice."

Wang Chenning was tempted to say that women should start dating early and find a great man like him; that way, her days would be filled with bliss—in every sense of the word.

But on second thought, he decided that would be too crass and lowbrow, so he dropped the subject.

After walking a little further, Wang Chenning let go of Li Yanxian’s hand and continued on with his hands clasped behind his back.

"You asked me out today. Besides just having fun, there’s something else you wanted to say to me, right?"

Li Yanxian asked in a low voice, "Can you really keep me looking like this twenty years from now?"

"I knew you wouldn’t be able to resist such a temptation!" Wang Chenning replied with a chuckle. "I’m not lying to you. Compared to snatching someone from Death’s door, this is child’s play. For a woman to defy the passage of time, the key is hormonal balance and a vigorous metabolism, allowing toxins to be expelled promptly and cell regeneration to outpace decay. With acupuncture and medication, you could still be fertile at sixty, and at eighty, you could still wear a swimsuit and compare figures with young women."

"Tch!" Li Yanxian gave him a look of contempt. "Why don’t you just say you’re immortal, and any woman who sleeps with you will stay forever young? Wouldn’t that make it easier to trick women into bed?"

Her words made Wang Chenning freeze for a moment. Then, he nodded seriously. "Perhaps... that’s actually possible."

’He could genuinely infer that possibility from the dramatic changes in the complexions of Luo Yuqing, Zhao Xiao’an, and Li Fuzhen after they had been intimate with him.’

However, he’d just never thought about it before.

’He’d always attributed his overabundant vitality to that strange encounter all those years ago and hadn’t thought to look any deeper.’

’When I get back, I need to find some time to examine my own body and see if there’s anything unusual about it.’

Li Yanxian found it very strange. After his reply, Wang Chenning seemed to be lost in thought and didn’t try to take her hand again.

After a few steps, she took the initiative and grabbed his arm. "You don’t actually believe that, do you?"

"Why don’t you give it a try? You might just become immortal!" Wang Chenning reached out and pinched her perfectly smooth cheek, adding with a double meaning, "I’m the kind of man who never disappoints... in any department!"

Before Li Yanxian could react, Wang Chenning’s phone rang. It was Li Fuzhen.

Li Fuzhen asked where he was, saying she was planning to come see him.

Wang Chenning told her honestly that Li Yanxian was with him by the Han River.

Li Fuzhen paused for a moment, then asked sullenly if he had designs on Li Yanxian.

Wang Chenning didn’t answer, simply telling her that they were on their way back.

"Come on, let’s head back." He glanced at the time. He was due to leave Seoul in less than three hours; it was time to go.

"Okay!" Although Li Yanxian was a little disappointed, she didn’t object.

On the way back, she took the initiative to hold his hand and compared her height to his. "I’m not that much shorter than you!"

"In the grand scheme of things, you’re still miles behind me. Keep trying, little girl. Strive to surpass me in at least one area!"

"You know, it’s actually pretty fun hanging out with you!" Li Yanxian said with a radiant smile. "So, let’s work together! That way, I can also determine whether you were just bluffing today."

Wang Chenning’s eyes widened, and then he laughed. "When you come to Huaxia, I’ll grant your wish."

After Li Yanxian dropped Wang Chenning off at his hotel, she didn’t go up with him.

"I won’t see you off when you leave, since I’m coming to Yandu next month anyway." After parking the car at the hotel entrance, Li Yanxian held out her hand to Wang Chenning. "You’re the first guy to hold my hand. Shouldn’t I get a gift for that?"

Wang Chenning took out a pen he carried with him and had Li Yanxian find a piece of paper. He quickly scribbled down a prescription and handed it to her. "A formula for a beauty and health tonic. You can use it yourself or for investment. It’s worth no less than a hundred million. In US dollars."

Li Yanxian rolled her eyes. "I know this formula is valuable, but I want something else! You didn’t prepare a more memorable gift for me?"

"Of course I do!" Wang Chenning pulled her head toward him and planted a kiss right on her lips...
