Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 1414: Chapter 1413 Reminder

After returning, Lin Dong took out the Dragon and Phoenix Jade Pendant and immediately inscribed a Peace Amulet on it.

Once the Peace Amulet had been inscribed, the pendant was no longer just for show; it could also protect one from disaster and calamity once.

If he were to auction this item, who knows how many tycoons would compete for it.

Even with a price tag of one billion, it would cause a frenzy.

Its value had now far surpassed ten million. It had increased in value by at least a hundred times!

After inscribing the Peace Amulet, Lin Dong put the Dragon and Phoenix Jade Pendant back into its box.

He planned to give it to his childhood friend Lin Yu as a gift for the opening of his restaurant the next day.

At the same time, he couldn’t help but sigh, thinking about how to reveal his girlfriend’s infidelity to him tomorrow.

Telling him directly might shock him.

Lin Dong wanted to hint at it in a more subtle way.

This was also why Lin Dong didn’t call him right away to tell him about it.

At the moment, Lin Dong thought of something else.

He took out his phone and made a call to Ah Lang.

Recently, Ah Lang had been sent away by him to handle some matters covertly, so he had not been around Lin Dong.

After the phone call connected, Ah Lang spoke in a lowered voice, ”Big brother, you were looking for me?”

”Come to the Capital City and see me once, I have something to give you,” Lin Dong said. He was planning to give Ah Lang the ’Phoenix Rebirth Pill’ which he had previously concocted.

Ah Lang’s Martial Way realm was that of a Half-Step Earth Realm martial artist, and he had been at this level for quite some time.

Breaking through to Earth Realm was extremely difficult, even with Ah Lang’s talent, it was almost like reaching for the heavens.

Lin Dong wanted him to take the ’Phoenix Rebirth Pill’, which could help him with an 80 percent chance to breakthrough to an Earth Realm martial artist in dire situations.

Upon hearing Lin Dong’s words, Ah Lang didn’t ask anything further and directly said, ”Okay, big brother, I can come over tomorrow.”

”Hmm,” Lin Dong nodded.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Dong went straight to cultivate.

Tonight, Qiao Bing was working the night shift again, leaving Lin Dong alone in the courtyard houses.

The night passed without incident.

The next day, Lin Dong got out of bed.

Only three days were left until the official start of the large comparison of the War Department.

And today was also the day his childhood friend Lin Yu’s restaurant opened.

So, Lin Dong did not go to the War Department, but instead, with yesterday’s prepared gift in hand, attended the ceremony for his friend’s restaurant opening.

About half an hour later, Lin Dong arrived at the address Lin Yu had sent him.

The opening ceremony of Lin Yu’s restaurant involved inviting friends and family to enjoy a meal at their own establishment.

Since Lin Yu was from out of town, and his previous occupation was that of a programmer, he didn’t have many friends in the vast Capital City.

The man’s side didn’t have enough friends to fill even one table!

On the other hand, the woman’s side, where Ai Jing was a local from the Capital City with friends and family there, had almost a hundred people coming.

Today Ai Jing dressed in a red gown, heavily made up, with a gold necklace around her neck and a Jadeite Bracelet on her wrist.

If Lin Dong wasn’t mistaken, that Jadeite Bracelet was exactly what she had begged her lover to buy yesterday.

From this, it was evident that she must have been with her lover last night.

At the moment, Ai Jing was scolding Lin Yu.

”Lin Yu, have you been mingling on a dog’s back all these years? You’ve been in the Capital City for so long, yet you didn’t manage to build any connections. Look at you, your restaurant is opening, and hardly anyone has come to congratulate you.”

””

”Everyone who’s come here is just here to ’eat dry rice,’ like that guy, Xiao Li, a friend from your programmer circles. Coming to our friend’s restaurant opening ceremony and actually showing up empty-handed. Where does he get the nerve, huh?”

”And then there was Xiao Wang bringing a measly two jin of fruit. Honestly, you programmers really have no clue how to handle social niceties, do you?”

As they were talking, Lin Dong walked over.

He shouted to Lin Yu, ”Brother Yu!”

Hearing Lin Dong’s voice, Lin Yu looked at him and laughingly said, ”Dongzi, you’re here.”

But when Ai Jing saw Lin Dong, she couldn’t help but angrily say, ”Why did you come?”

”I asked Dongzi to come,” Lin Yu quickly explained.

”You...” Ai Jing was speechless and grumbled softly, ”Great, another freeloader.”

Clearly, in her eyes, Lin Dong was even less welcome than those programmer friends of Lin Yu. At least, those programmer friends had jobs, and their salaries weren’t bad in the Capital City. As for Lin Dong, a fellow villager without even a university degree or a job, she looked down upon him even more.

At that moment, Lin Dong’s lips curled into a cold smile, then he spoke to Ai Jing, ”Sister-in-law, that bracelet on your hand is really beautiful. It’s made of jadeite, isn’t it? Must have cost quite a bit, right?”

Ai Jing pursed her lips, and almost instinctively Hmphed as she said, ”At least you have some good taste. My jadeite bracelet here is worth several hundred thousands, how could it not be beautiful?”

Lin Dong laughingly said, ”I don’t recall seeing you wear it last time. Brother Yu, is this a new gift you got for sister-in-law?”

Lin Yu was also stunned at the moment. He had noticed the jadeite bracelet on his girlfriend Ai Jing’s hand before, but he had assumed it was just stall goods.

Who would have thought it was worth several hundreds of thousands!

A bracelet worth hundreds of thousands, how did she get it?

Lin Yu quickly asked, ”Xiao Jing, a bracelet worth hundreds of thousands, where did you get it from? Did you buy it? But where did you get all that money? I remember you always spend your entire salary each month.”

”My money has all been invested in this restaurant, just like you told me to.”

Ai Jing’s face showed an unnatural expression; that jadeite bracelet had been a gift from a man she had had an affair with.

She naturally couldn’t tell him the truth.

She had to quickly concoct a lie.

”This... This was given to me by my best friend. How could you even ask? You can’t afford to give me a jadeite bracelet because you’re unsuccessful, so does that mean no one else is allowed to give me one?”

Hearing this, Lin Yu scratched his head uncomfortably and said apologetically, ”Xiao Jing, I’m sorry, I’ll definitely earn more money in the future.”

Seeing this, Lin Dong sighed.

His big brother truly had been totally played by this woman.

Brainwashed, even.

Doesn’t he ever question, what kind of best friend just gives away jadeite bracelets worth several hundred thousand?

Doesn’t he have any doubts that it might be a gift from another man?

And yet, he was still apologizing to her.

At the moment, all Lin Dong could do was say, ”Wow, sister-in-law, that best friend of yours really is generous.”

”Actually giving you a jadeite bracelet worth hundreds of thousands. Brother Yu, do you know this best friend?”

Hearing Lin Dong still talking about the jadeite bracelet, Ai Jing glared at him and said, ”Of course, my best friend is generous.”

”Not like you, attending your brother’s restaurant opening and showing up empty-handed.”

”Don’t even mention giving me a brace worth 300,000. You probably couldn’t even afford a 300-yuan gift.”

As she spoke, her eyes suddenly darted to the door, and they brightened.

She immediately said to Lin Yu beside her, ”Lin Yu, attend to your own fellow villager, take care of him on your own. I’m not dealing with it.

”I’m going to greet my friends.”

With that, she headed toward the door.

Lin Dong noticed the person entering the door was none other than the paramour Ai Jing had met with yesterday.
