Urban Super Medical Saint-Chapter 302 - 301 Thank You
"Actually, Lili, even though the joke Yushan and Sijie made was somewhat inappropriate, you’re both going to be in the entertainment industry, where you’ll encounter jokes like this, or even jokes a hundred times cruder. So, if you want to make a name for yourself in this industry, you definitely have to face them with equanimity; otherwise, you can forget about making it big. As a newcomer, you simply don’t have the privilege of putting on airs or showing attitude," said Chen Liang as he stepped on the gas and got onto the main road, speaking in a solemn tone.
"There was this senior when I was in school, academically brilliant, talented, and beautiful. She had the potential to be the leading lady in a drama, but because she couldn’t take a joke at a dinner table, she never really got any good roles. Just the other day, some alumni and I met up for dinner and talked about her. I heard she’s now shacked up with some county chief back in her hometown, and working as a host at a local TV station. Why settle for being a small-time chief’s mistress? Had she just loosened up a bit back then, becoming famous overnight would’ve been easy, and snagging a rich guy or a high-ranking official would’ve been a piece of cake!"
"Lili, Brother Liang’s words are actually very realistic. If you want to climb the ladder, you’ve got to let go of what you need to; it’s not like you lose a chunk of flesh by just talking. And that boyfriend of yours, during the two years we’ve been classmates, not once have I seen a call or a letter from him, let alone flowers during the holidays. If he were my boyfriend, I’d have kicked him to the curb a long time ago," Lin Sijie said.
"Exactly, Lili, what’s the deal with your boyfriend? I think you should just dump him. Why waste your time with him when there are so many good men out there?" said Jin Yushan.
"Like me, for example!" Wang Hui said, gesturing towards himself.
"Get lost! You call yourself a good man? Brother Liang is more like it," retorted Jin Yushan and Lin Sijie dismissively.
"What terrible taste," Wang Hui said with disdain.
"Okay, enough with the chatter. We’re talking about something serious with Lili here," Lin Sijie and Jin Yushan said, giving Wang Hui a stern look.
"But I was talking about something serious too!" Wang Hui mumbled, then turned away.
"Lili, go ahead and tell us. Brother Liang is here today, let him give you some insight from a man’s perspective," Jin Yushan and Lin Sijie said to Jiang Lili, as Wang Hui turned away.
"There’s not much to say, he’s just the best man in my eyes," Jiang Lili said, her cheeks turning slightly red.
"Oh, come on! That’s it? Don’t tell me you’re in a one-sided love!" Jin Yushan and Lin Sijie slapped their foreheads, displaying speechless expressions, while a shadow flitted across Chen Liang’s eyes once again.
"Enough, let’s not talk about this anymore," Jiang Lili said, her face becoming even more flushed.
Her relationship with Ge Dongxu wasn’t exactly one-sided love, but it certainly had a hint of it.
"Alright, if you don’t want to talk about it, we won’t. But what Sijie said earlier is true. In our line of work, if you want to get ahead, you’ve got to let go when you need to. Just make sure to hold on to the last barrier and don’t give away too much to men too easily. Other than that, if those men want a little grease, just let them take a little. Men love that sort of thing, don’t they, Brother Liang?" Jin Yushan said, casting a flirtatious glance at Chen Liang.
"Heh heh," Chen Liang laughed ambiguously, while Wang Hui turned to the side with a sly smile and stretched out his hand, saying, "That’s right, that’s right. Yushan, you couldn’t be more correct. A little grease doesn’t hurt; it’s not like it’ll cost you flesh. Here, grease me up a little."
"Tsk, you think just anyone is worthy of touching me?" Jin Yushan swiftly slapped away Wang Hui’s outstretched hand.
"Dear me, why is it so hard to find a pure, unmaterialistic woman these days?" Wang Hui said, rubbing his hand and putting on a woeful face.
"You want pure and unmaterialistic? Isn’t that easy? Brother Hui, won’t you have a chance when school starts later this year?" Jin Yushan said with a roll of her eyes.
"Tsk, do I look like that kind of person?" Wang Hui replied, suddenly adopting a righteous expression.
"You’re just that kind of person!" the three women in the back seat said in unison.

Seeing the women’s unanimous attitude, Wang Hui could only sheepishly turn around, while Jiang Lili and her two friends burst into laughter upon seeing this.
Through the rear-view mirror, Chen Liang secretly swallowed as he saw the waves crashing at Jiang Lili’s chest when she laughed.

Located in the western outskirts of the capital, the terrain of Xiangshan is perilous, the verdure continuous. Although the best time to visit Xiangshan is autumn, when the mountain is covered in flame-like red leaves of the smoke trees, splendid and beautiful, summer in Xiangshan, away from the city with its forests green and mountain streams trickling, is also not a bad place to escape the heat.
As a cultivator, Ge Dongxu naturally preferred natural scenery over the bustling and hustling metropolis, hence he drove to Xiangshan for his first stop.
Another reason he chose Xiangshan was because the earliest records of the mountain trace back to Ge Hong of the Jin Dynasty. It is said that Ge Hong set up an alchemy well and furnace on Xiangshan to refine pills.
For Ge Dongxu, visiting Xiangshan was akin to searching for and retracing the footsteps of his ancestor.
Perhaps due to the summer holidays, there were quite a number of visitors from other places as well locals in Xiangshan, and the traffic was heavy.
However, it seemed that drivers in the capital were all aware of the prestigious Jing V license plate; no one dared to compete for the road with him. When Ge Dongxu’s car reached the parking lot, the parking attendant, upon seeing his plate, immediately smiled broadly, greeting him with great respect and leading him to a spacious parking spot.
Another car, seeing the empty spot next to Ge Dongxu’s, initially wanted to park there too, but was immediately stopped by the parking attendant with a wave of his hand, forbidding the car from parking next to Ge Dongxu’s, in order to avoid making the space too tight for leaders getting on and off their cars and for other cars to move in and out conveniently.
This scene left even Ge Dongxu, who had prepared himself mentally, utterly dumbfounded.
He had driven a Jing V license plated car during a test drive in the Provincial Capital Linzhou before, and while that plate number wasn’t as exaggerated as this one, it was definitely regarded as exceedingly boastful locally, but only some traffic police recognized it. Ordinary people simply did not understand, knowing only that it was a car from the capital. Unlike here, where even the parking attendants knew.
Clearly, many people in the capital, especially the old Beijingers, probably knew what the Jing V plate number represented.
When Ge Dongxu got out of the car, the parking attendant, seeing just an ordinarily dressed young man, was nearly stunned.
A license plate like this, a car like this, yet the person who came out was only an ordinarily dressed young man.
If the attendant didn’t know for certain that no one would dare to fake a license number like that of Ge Dongxu’s car, he might have suspected it was a car with a fake plate.
"Thank you," Ge Dongxu said, smiling kindly at the parking attendant.
Startled back to reality, the attendant quickly waved his hands and said, "It’s what I should do, it’s what I should do."
Ge Dongxu smiled, then nodded his head at him again as a gesture before leaving the parking lot and entering Xiangshan through the East Palace Gate, turning left and heading up the road.
