Chapter 95: Chun Zhu's Suspicions

  Wu Rui quickly returned to the clinic, Chunzhu, Bingxuan and Mei Ayi were watching TV, found Wu Rui back, three people looked over at once.

  For some reason, Wu Rui felt a little guilty when facing their gaze, and he dryly laughed twice before saying: "Uh... it's getting late, I'll go upstairs to take a bath and sleep, you guys watch TV!"

  Watching Wu Rui hurry upstairs, Bing Xuan and Chun Zhu looked at each other, and through a simple exchange of eyes, they unanimously thought: Wu Rui has a guilty conscience.

  "Wu Dafu is acting strangely tonight!" Chunzhu stroked his chin suspiciously and thoughtfully.

  "This is Mr. Wu's private matter, let's not discuss it!" Ice Xuan was curious in her heart, but she spoke to protect him.

  "Cut! You only know how to pamper your Wu Daifu, what if she just sneaked back in a moment ago!" Chun Zhu teased.

  "What are you talking about? What's this 'my Wu Daifu'?" Bing Xuan glared at Chunzhu with a hint of annoyance, but her face revealed a blush.

  "It seems that Mr. Wu has just returned from a secret meeting with a woman, and there is still a scent of perfume on him!" The maid Mei, who was standing next to her, spoke out in surprise, having caught a whiff of the faint scent of perfume when Wu Rui walked by earlier.

  "What?" Chun Zhu and Bing Xuan were shocked, then looked at each other. Chun Zhu's eyes had a fierce Eight Trigrams fire, while Bing Xuan's eyes still had some other emotions.

  Chun Zhu's eyes rolled around a few times, and suddenly thought of Mei Yi's suggestion the other day. She secretly looked down at her own flat chest, then raised her head and laughed: "That... I'll go take a look, you guys wait for my news! Bing Xuan, don't worry, I'll definitely tell you the truth first."

  She babbled on for a bit, and then followed him up the stairs. But as soon as she stepped onto the staircase, her little face suddenly turned bright red, especially when she thought about the illness she was going to let Dr. Wu see later. Her face felt like it had been scalded by hot water, and it took her a while to calm down the strange feeling in her heart before quietly making her way up to the third floor.

  The third floor has a total of four suites, two are empty, one is Xu Manli's former residence, and the last one is Wu Rui's place.

  Spring bamboo came to Wu Rui's room like a thief, took a deep breath, and then gently knocked on the door: "Knock, knock!"

  ...There was no response for a long time.

  "Didn't you hear?" Chunzhu muttered to herself, then knocked a few more times with increased force.

  ...still did not respond.

  "Bang! Bang! Bang!" After several times, Chun Zhu also got angry and started pounding on the door with her palms, while shouting loudly: "Dr. Wu, are you inside? I'm Chun Zhu, open the door for me!"

  Of course, no matter how she called or clapped, there was never a response inside, and gradually she also sensed that something was wrong.

  For some reason, she suddenly felt that the air in the corridor was very gloomy, her body shuddered, and then she rushed downstairs, shouting loudly from a distance: "Something's wrong! Something's wrong! Dr. Wu is gone!"

  Bing Xuan and Mei Yi stared at each other in dismay, neither of them knowing what had gotten into Chun Zhu.

  "I'm telling the truth, I was right behind him going upstairs and even heard the sound of him closing the door. But when I went up to knock on the door, there was no response, not a single sound inside. The hallway was so gloomy and scary!" Chunzhu shivered as she finished speaking.

  "Spring bamboo, don't talk about that here, okay?" Ice Xuan swept a somewhat dissatisfied glance at her, his expression slightly stiff. Girls inevitably had some resistance to ghostly and strange things.

  "......" Aunt Mei didn't say anything, but she also gave the girl a stern look. What kind of nonsense is this at such a late hour?

  "How can you not believe me..." Chun Zhu suddenly became a bit anxious, hurriedly explaining: "What I said is true, didn't you all hear the sound of me knocking on the door just now? And my shouting, didn't you all hear that too? Such a big commotion, if Dr. Wu was inside, how could he not have heard it? Even if he had something to hide in his heart, there's no reason for him to ignore me!"

  Upon hearing Chun Zhu's repeated questioning, Bing Xuan and Mei Yi also felt that there was some truth to it, and for a moment they looked at each other in dismay, feeling a chill run down their backs.

  "Mei Yi, don't you have a spare key for all the rooms in the villa? Bring it and open the door to take a look!" Chun Zhu suddenly suggested.

  "This...this won't do, or is there something inconvenient for Master Wu? I absolutely cannot open this door!" Mei Ayi firmly rejected Chunzhu's proposal after a brief moment of thought. Although there were no rules at the Shennong Clinic, as a professional nanny, Mei Ayi had her own principles, and if it wasn't necessary, she naturally couldn't privately open the boss's door.

  "Spring bamboo, you're overthinking it, Wu Rui might be taking a bath or something? It's not suitable for us to barge in!" Bing Xuan also chimed in.

  "...That's also reasonable." Chunzhu felt that she was being overly nervous, although her mind still had many suspicions, but she didn't say anything else. Her eyes were quietly rolling around, seemingly thinking of something.

  In fact, Wu Rui had already entered the dimensional clinic and couldn't hear Chunzhu's cries.

  Since the clinic was upgraded to Huang Jie, there is a bathroom next to the master bedroom, which includes a bathing room with a swimming pool and even "running water". It's unknown where this water comes from, but Wu Rui has carefully studied it and found that not only is the water crystal clear, but also tastes extremely sweet and refreshing, comparable to rare high-quality mineral water.

  At this moment, Wu Rui was soaking in the clear water of the bathtub. Although the pool water was generally refreshing and cool, his body temperature was hard to lower, especially the pillar that held up the sky below, which made him smile bitterly.

  How could Wu Rui be a normal man, and still a vigorous young man in his prime, although he was able to remain calm at critical moments without making mistakes, but the desires of the flesh were not so easily suppressed, being seduced by Xu Manli like that, if his body didn't react at all, then he really should take some medicine.

  But recalling the ambiguous moment in the car, Wu Rui's mood was indescribably anxious, unable to express what emotion it was, but thinking that she had to marry Wummu with tears, her heart didn't feel good either. Of course, it wasn't that she liked him, only that she felt sympathy for a friend! Thinking carefully, she really was quite pitiful.

  Wu Rui hastily wiped her body and got out of the bathtub. After dressing up, she headed to the Ling Garden.

  In the Spirit Garden, a towering giant tree stood tall, its height reaching nearly 300 meters. The trunk of the tree was as thick as four to five meters in diameter, and even if ten people joined hands, they couldn't encircle it. The trunk and branches were all a deep green color, with dense foliage that seemed to cover the entire Spirit Garden. Fortunately, this strange tree didn't affect the growth of the surrounding crops; instead, the rich spiritual energy emitted from its body actually promoted the growth of the Spirit Garden's crops.

  Originally, the spiritual garden has now formed a layer of spiritual mist, all of which are released by this extraordinary tree. Just this point is enough to make Wu Rui secretly delighted. Moreover, according to his observation, although this extraordinary tree has grown very large in scale, it has not yet reached its extreme limit. Who knows what other changes may occur in the future? At least the spiritual energy of the spiritual garden is getting thicker and thicker. At this rate, it is highly likely that a pure spiritual liquid will be formed.

  At the same time, Wu Rui was also surprised. Although only four days had passed, the growth rate of the crops in the spiritual garden was one day and one hundred years, which means that this strange tree already has an age of 400 years and is still in its growing stage. It can be seen that this strange tree has a remarkable origin, Wu Rui is full of expectations for it.

  While not far from the strange tree, the demon tree had already been able to transform into a semi-human form two days ago, just like the original appearance of Tree Wanwu. However, due to the relatively narrow space of the spiritual garden, it did not have permission to freely enter other spaces in the clinic. In general, it took root underground and enjoyed the rich and endless nutrients of the spiritual garden's land.

  As Wu Rui arrived, the Devil Tree's vines contracted and transformed, quickly turning into a Devil Tree clan member, who respectfully bowed to Wu Rui: "Tree One has seen the master."

  Not bad, this devil tree was named Tree One by Wu Rui, and it's hard to describe how common it is.

  P.S. The plot about Xu Manli has received a lot of feedback, which was unexpected by the author and is now in a dilemma, unsure how to end it for the time being. There are still two days left, so please actively offer suggestions... Don't scold me~~~
