Chapter 308: Su Tao'S Background
Although both were male protagonists, Chu Lingfeng's mind was far more useful than Ye Liang's.
It was true that he coveted Su Tao's beauty, and he arrogantly believed that only a woman like Su Tao was worthy of his status as a divine doctor.
To this end, he had Si Zhenliu send people to find an opportunity to get Su Tao over to him, even if it meant kidnapping her. After all, she was just a normal girl who happened to be beautiful and had a rather unique personality.
However, when he delved deeper into the relationship between Su Tao and Dongfang Yang, Chu Lingfeng unexpectedly discovered Xiao Ming's involvement.
The Asura Hall!
The Dragon King!
These were all powerful forces that he currently had no access to. After a trip to the capital during the New Year, this divine doctor from the mountains and wilds truly had his eyes opened by the dazzling world.
Money, power, and a fleeting moment of extravagant indulgence completely captivated Chu Lingfeng.
After treating a powerful figure, Chu Lingfeng realized that the man wanted to give him money rather than owe him a favor. He decisively chose to have the man help him thoroughly investigate Xiao Ming, hoping to connect with this Dragon King.
As a result of investigating Xiao Ming, he discovered the War God Mercenary Corps, an organization opposed to the Asura Hall. Its leader, Su Dingtian, was Chinese, and the surname immediately made him think of Su Tao.
Leaving aside the fact that Dongfang Yang seemed to have some mental issues, everyone in Jiuzhou knew that Si Chen valued profit above all else. Was his approach to Su Tao really because of her beauty?
Following the clues, Chu Lingfeng uncovered a terrifying truth.
Su Tao was actually Su Dingtian's offspring from a one-night stand in China 19 years ago!
At that time, Su Dingtian was a king among soldiers, young, intelligent, and a powerful ancient martial artist with a bloodline heritage. In every aspect, he was a dragon among men.
However, no matter how strong an individual was, without the backing of a powerful force, they could not escape the fate of being a fish on a chopping board.
At the height of his success, Su Dingtian was falsely accused of a serious crime. Before leaving the country, he sought out a popular actress.
The actress needed a large sum of money to break free from her exploitative management company and become a freelancer.
Su Dingtian, feeling irritable and restless, needed a place to vent.
Both parties were willing.
The young actress became his woman, offering him her first time.
Su Dingtian was not an irresponsible man. In addition to money, he left half of an ancestral jade pendant to the actress, promising that if he ever returned from abroad, he would not let her down.
From then on, he erased all traces of himself, left behind a huge sum of money, and left the country.
However, neither Su Dingtian nor the actress expected that their only moment of pleasure, even with precautions taken afterward, would still result in a pregnancy.
After much deliberation, the actress completely withdrew from the entertainment industry. She chose Su Tao, this unborn little life.
She was born in March, when peach blossoms bloomed, hence the name Su Tao.
The actress left the bustling big city and came alone to an unknown small county town, hoping to live a peaceful life. But unexpectedly, Su Dingtian's enemies still found her.
The actress knew Su Dingtian's identity and suspected that she would not survive.
She engraved Su Tao's name on the half of the jade pendant, and then left her, still a baby, in front of the door of an old grandmother who often picked up trash nearby.
That night, she perished in a sudden fire due to an accident.
After that, Su Tao was raised by the old grandmother, and after the old grandmother passed away, she met Chi Xiaocheng and was adopted by the Chi family.
…
Chu Lingfeng had spent a great deal of effort to find out these things.
Because of this, he changed his initial plan.
Winning Su Tao's heart was far more important than simply getting her person!
The former would allow him to gain the support of her War God father.
The latter would only incur the wrath of her War God father.
Therefore, this invitation was intended to first shake Su Tao's heart, allowing her to officially connect with him, rather than remain like a stranger, making it difficult even to meet her!
However, Chu Lingfeng did not expect that Su Tao, upon hearing the news of her biological father and seeing the photos, would remain calm.
Su Tao was no longer the Su Tao she once was.
She had once yearned for family affection, but a marriage contract and a wrong choice had almost led to her losing Chi Xiaocheng forever. Her impression of this father she had never met had already reached freezing point.
Naturally, she would not lose her composure upon hearing news of her father.
She still looked calmly at Chu Lingfeng, and after considering for a long time, she spoke, "I can't make you any promises. I've never met this father of mine from childhood until now."
"Don't be impatient, cooperation and investment are two-way streets." Chu Lingfeng slowly said, "Right now, I'm essentially investing in Miss Su Tao. Then, when your father returns, we can discuss the matter of cooperation. What I need more is an opportunity to see him."
"However, just talking about it won't make you understand my sincerity. Let me express my sincerity to you first."
He took out a silver needle from his pocket. Holding the needle, Chu Lingfeng's aura instantly became confident and arrogant, "I heard your sister has amnesia. I only need one day to cure her!"
Chi Xiaocheng's memory had been a source of worry for Su Tao recently.
Hearing Chu Lingfeng say this, her eyes became even colder, "What makes you think I would believe you? Your subordinates just threatened me that if I dared to act, they would cause Xiaocheng to have a car accident."
"You've been monitoring us, and now you're telling me you want to cure her, and then cooperate with me?"
Chu Lingfeng chuckled softly, "Miss Su Tao, you've been following Dongfang Yang and Si Chen for so long, you should know that people like us can be unscrupulous for the sake of profit. In this world, there are no eternal friends or enemies. Mutual interests are the basis for maintaining a relationship."
"However, it's just that you haven't truly seen my medical skills yet."
Chu Lingfeng clapped his hands. Not long after, a security captain walked in from outside, "Divine Doctor Chu, is there anything I can do for you?"
Chu Lingfeng lit a cigarette and said lightly, "There's a kitchen knife in the kitchen. Cut off one of your hands and I'll give you a million!"
Immediately, the security captain looked at Chu Lingfeng as if he were an idiot, "Divine Doctor Chu, I've been working here for ten years. My monthly salary is 100,000 now."
Chu Lingfeng: "…"
Noticing Su Tao's look of amusement, Chu Lingfeng felt a little embarrassed.
He coughed dryly and rubbed his nose, "Well, you let the old butler come in."
Not long after, the security captain left, and the old butler who had led the way for Su Tao walked in.
The same request, the same amount of money, but the old butler hesitated.
After looking back at the door, he sighed deeply and walked into the kitchen. A few seconds later, a muffled groan was heard.
But it wasn't an arm that was severed, but three fingers.
The bloody wound made Su Tao's scalp tingle.
But Chu Lingfeng didn't mind at all. He pulled out a few silver needles from his pocket and said confidently, "Miss Su Tao, watch carefully, Chu's Taiyi Thirteen Needles!"
