Chapter 267 Why Not?
Li Xianda winked at Zhou Hanzhang, "Your senior brother, isn't he the best at treating women's ailments? He's also a descendant of Medicine King Valley. If he can't do it, then probably no one in the world can."
Zhou Hanzhang was speechless. "Who told you he's best at treating women's ailments?"
"If not, why would he hang out with the girls at the Red Beauty Brothel every day and make all sorts of aphrodisiacs for them? Don't think I don't know that the girls at the Red Beauty Brothel all go to him for treatment when they have gynecological problems."
"...He is just good at everything, not that he is only good at women's diseases."
"Anyway, that's his specialty. Why don't you go and ask him to come and take a look at Lisa?"
"……Row."
Robert almost knelt down before Zhou Hanzhang, excitedly running into the kitchen to tell Lisa the good news, "Lisa, Lisa, Mr. Li said our child can be saved."
Lee Hsien-ta was also speechless, "I don't think I said that, did I?"
Zhou Hanzhang said quietly, "You gave them hope."
"You gave them hope. If you hadn't known Shen Moli, they might not have had that hope."
Zhou Hanzhang rolled her eyes at him, "You talk as if you don't know him."
"We know each other, but do you see him ignoring me?"
"Okay, I'll go, alright?"
Upon hearing that there was a chance her child could stay, Lisa immediately put down what she was doing and followed Robert to Zhou Hanzhang, bowing deeply to him once again.
“Mr. Zhou, if you can help me keep this child, you will be a benefactor not only to my husband and me, but also to my child.”
"Ahem, there's no need for you to be like this. My senior brother is quite accomplished in medicine, but I don't know if he can cure your problems."
Zhou Hanzhang also thought about Zhou Tong's pod. If Zhou Tong were willing to lend a hand, Lisa's problem could be easily solved. However, her relationship with Lisa was not yet at the point where she could expose Zhou Tong's pod.
Besides, the cabin belongs to Zhou Tong, so even if it really needs to be used, Zhou Tong's consent is required.
Robert and the others were very excited. "It's okay, it's okay, as long as he's willing to come and see Lisa, that's enough. You don't know, we've always wanted to find someone from Medicine King Valley to help Lisa, but the people from Medicine King Valley aren't people we can just meet whenever we want. We never expected things to turn out this way. Sure enough, finding you was the best decision we ever made."
These words put Zhou Hanzhang on a pedestal, making him feel somewhat embarrassed.
"Now that you're pregnant, you don't know about this disguise..."
"I need to get my face fixed first. I never want to live that kind of life again. I want to completely break free from my previous life and welcome my child with a brand new look."
"Alright, let's go find a disguise master tomorrow."
Li Xianda was a bit gossipy, "You went to the Red Beauty Brothel today, could the disguise master be someone from the Red Beauty Brothel?"
"You were following me?"
"Why are you saying such harsh things? I just happened to have a business partner at the Red Beauty Pavilion who happened to see you and mentioned it to me."
"Oh, that startled me. I thought you had someone specifically assigned to keep an eye on me."
"Cough cough cough..."
Li Xianda suddenly started coughing.
Zhou Hanzhang became wary. "Could they really have sent someone to follow me?"
"How could you say such a harsh thing? Even if they really sent people, it was to protect you."
"So, you sent someone?"
"No, I didn't!"
Zhou Hanzhang looked at Li Xianda suspiciously, and Li Xianda finally gave in under her gaze, "It was your grandparents who had someone follow you around, afraid that something might happen to you, to protect you."
"Protect me and I'll tell you my information?"
"That's not true at all. They are all professionals and will only help you when you are in danger. Moreover, my grandparents never ask about your whereabouts. I really learned this from that business partner."
Lee Hsien-tat was practically ready to raise his hand and swear an oath.
"Okay, I believe you."
"...Your attitude is worse than not believing at all."
Zhou Hanzhang laughed and patted Li Xianda on the shoulder, saying, "Just kidding."
Robert and Lisa exchanged a glance. "You two brothers have such a good relationship, unlike me."
"Hey, let's not talk about these things anymore. You're about to start a new life."
The couple's eyes shone with excitement. "Yes, we're about to start a new life."
The servants had already brought back the ingredients, and Robert quickly took them. "Lisa, you sit here and keep them company. I'll go make dinner."
Lisa looked at Robert gently and nodded.
"If I could find a wife like that, I would die without regrets."
Lisa nodded, "Robert is really nice."
"Your grandparents and uncles and aunts arranged a girl from a scholarly family for you, why don't you marry her?"
“I’ll call you brother, why don’t you go and marry her? You haven’t seen those girls before, they’re all so arrogant, like they have their eyes on their noses. Even though their families are dirt poor, they still look down on people with their noses in the air. I can’t possibly be worthy of those.”
"They don't mind that you reek of money, and you're complaining that they're aloof?"
Li Xianda patted his conscience and said, "I really didn't complain. She didn't even give me a second glance. When she got back, she went to her parents and made a huge fuss, saying she wouldn't marry me even if she had to be a nun."
"Where did you find this out?"
"Do I need to find out more information?"
"Yes, yes, your news is all delivered to you by others."
"Of course!" Li Xianda said smugly.
Robert quickly prepared dinner, and Lisa helped bring it out.
Zhou Hanzhang looked at the Western-style soup served to each person on the table, which didn't seem much different from what he had eaten in modern times.
Lisa introduced the soup to the two of them, saying, "This is our soup from where we're from. Try it and see if you notice anything different."
Li Xianda glanced at Zhou Hanzhang and saw that Zhou Hanzhang calmly picked up the spoon, took a sip, and his eyes brightened slightly.
He took a sip with some skepticism and immediately exclaimed, "Your soup is really good! It has a rich milky aroma, a thick and delicate texture, and a smooth, silky consistency."
The mushrooms were tender and juicy, perfectly blended with the subtle spices, and complemented the crispy breadcrumbs beautifully. What's this called?
Li Xianda immediately thought that such a delicious drink could be added to the dishes at Zuixianlou.
Robert was pleased to see that the two of them liked it. "This is cream of mushroom soup, a soup unique to us. Isn't it very different from yours?"
"Yes, I wonder if it would be convenient for you two to teach me how to make this soup? I think if it were served in a restaurant, many people would love it."
Lisa readily agreed, "Why not?"
After finishing the soup, Lisa and Robert served pan-fried steak, noodles, mashed potatoes, and finally a fruit salad.
Zhou Hanzhang and Li Xianda were very satisfied with the meal. Before leaving, Li Xianda even asked Robert to write down the recipes for the dishes so he could take them with him.
The guests and hosts were enjoying themselves and were about to leave when a loud banging came from the doorway: "Open the door! Open the door! The authorities are arresting people! Open the door immediately!"
