Chapter 47

Just before going to work, Mo Zhitao was preparing to go to the duty room when his phone rang. It was a number he didn't recognize.

"Hello," Mo Zhitao answered the call.

"Is this Doctor Mo? I'm the female patient from this morning. I checked this afternoon, and it seems there's a red mark below my chest. I'm not sure if it was bitten by something," came the gentle voice of the female boss from the phone.

After witnessing the female boss's transformation in the morning, Mo Zhitao knew that this beautiful woman was not an ordinary person. She seemed gentle on the surface but could be lethal at any moment. It was best to be cautious and alert around her.

"Do you believe me now?" Mo Zhitao said.

"Yes, I know Doctor Mo's medical skills are excellent," the female boss replied.

Now she had a newfound respect for Mo Zhitao. No one wanted to offend a doctor who could save lives. After all, everyone gets sick at some point, and offending a doctor like Mo Zhitao would be like playing with one's life.

"Doctor, what do you think bit me? I want you to help me figure it out, or I won't feel at ease," the female boss said, now believing that something toxic had bitten her. If she couldn't find out what it was, it might happen again.

"Alright, I have to see some patients soon. After 4 PM, send a car to pick me up. I need to go to where you slept last night to see if I can find anything," Mo Zhitao said.

"Sure, I won't let Doctor Mo down," the female boss said respectfully.

Mo Zhitao hung up and went to the duty room, where he saw many patients waiting.

He quickly attended to the patients. For those with minor illnesses, he just prescribed medicine. By around 4 PM, he had finished seeing all the patients. He then went to Zhang Song's duty room.

"Director Zhang, I need to go out for a bit," Mo Zhitao said.

"Zhitao, I want to discuss something with you. We are very short-staffed here. Some of the doctors and nurses from the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) department want to come back. Do you agree?" Zhang Song asked.

"You decide. If we continue like this, I won't have much time to focus on my other goals," Mo Zhitao nodded. If things went on like this, he would be too busy treating patients to think about revenge.

Many of today's patients could be treated by ordinary doctors. It was a waste of his skills to treat them. He would rather focus on more complex cases, which would be less stressful.

If he could earn 100,000 yuan for the TCM department by treating one patient today, other doctors couldn't earn that much in a month.

Mo Zhitao shared his thoughts, and Zhang Song nodded. "Yes, that's a good idea. Some TCM doctors and nurses want to come back. I'll call them tomorrow. This way, everyone won't be so tired, and patients won't be delayed."

Just the two of them couldn't treat so many patients. It would be better to have other doctors help, and only refer the serious cases or those beyond their capabilities to Mo Zhitao.

Mo Zhitao entrusted Zhang Song with this task and went downstairs. A man was waiting there, whom Mo Zhitao recognized as the female boss's bodyguard. The bodyguard must have been waiting for him. Indeed, when the bodyguard saw Mo Zhitao, he hurried over.

"Director Mo, hello. The boss asked me to wait for you here."

"Let's go," Mo Zhitao nodded and followed the bodyguard to a Mercedes-Benz outside. The car drove off.

Macheng District was close to Qingmei City, so many villas were built in the suburban areas near Qingmei City. Many wealthy people from Qingmei City bought houses in these villa areas. Mo Zhitao and the bodyguard were heading to one of these villa areas.

The Mercedes-Benz stopped in front of a villa. The scenery in the villa area was beautiful, with many trees and a garden-like landscape. Mo Zhitao heard that the cheapest villa here cost 30 million yuan. He nodded to himself, thinking that one day he would buy a villa here and enjoy a luxurious life with his girlfriend.

"Director Mo, please come in. The boss is waiting for you inside," the bodyguard said respectfully.

People like the bodyguard, who often risked their lives, needed to know some powerful doctors to ensure their survival.

Mo Zhitao entered and saw the female boss sitting on a sofa in the living room. She was now wearing a red qipao, and her long, white legs were visible. Her ample chest was tightly constrained by the qipao, almost breaking free. Her attire perfectly matched her status, making her look even more beautiful and sexy.

"Director Mo, you're here," the female boss stood up and said respectfully.

"Yes, can I see your wound?" Mo Zhitao asked.

"Um..." The female boss hesitated. "Do you need to see my entire body, or just the wound?"

Mo Zhitao smiled. "Boss, don't be too concerned. To me, you're just a patient, regardless of gender. I only need to see the wound, not anything else."

Since the female boss mentioned the bite was below her chest, Mo Zhitao didn't need to see her private areas.

The female boss nodded and called her bodyguard, instructing him not to enter the living room without her command. She then went to her room to change clothes.

If she had to pull up her qipao, Mo Zhitao would have seen much more of her.

A moment later, the female boss returned to the sofa and slowly pulled up her clothes, stopping at the bite mark.

"Director Mo, please," the female boss said.

Mo Zhitao came over and carefully examined the wound.

It was a small red mark, similar to a mosquito or ant bite, but the area around it was slightly black, which was unusual. Mo Zhitao also noticed the red bra the female boss was wearing, and the alluring scent from her body made him take a deep breath to steady himself.

"Boss, that's enough. You can put your clothes back on," Mo Zhitao said.

"Director Mo, did you find anything?" the female boss asked.

"Yes, I can tell what kind of toxic creature bit you. I need to go to your bedroom and have another female helper assist me," Mo Zhitao said seriously.

"Fortunately, you met me. Otherwise, you wouldn't have made it through today. Even if I cure you now, you'll be poisoned again tomorrow."

"Is it that serious?" The female boss was shocked and quickly called a female helper. They led Mo Zhitao to her bedroom.

The bedroom was very feminine, with a red theme. The red qipao she had worn earlier was on the bed, still carrying her scent. The female boss blushed at the sight.

"Director Mo, is the toxic creature in here?"

Mo Zhitao nodded and said solemnly, "Yes, I suspect it's here."

"That's impossible. I searched the bedroom with several female helpers after I returned today, but we didn't find anything," the female boss said, not believing him.

"Didn't you find it strange that you were bitten by something but didn't realize it?" Mo Zhitao pointed out her doubt.

"Yes, how could that be? If I was bitten by something toxic, I should have known," the female boss said, puzzled.

"Be careful. Wear thick gloves. The creature is extremely toxic," Mo Zhitao said. He then opened a wardrobe, which contained many red clothes.

Mo Zhitao picked out some of the red lingerie and threw it on the floor, examining it carefully.

"Ahh," the female boss and the helper gasped softly. Mo Zhitao seemed to be a voyeur, studying women's private clothing.

Mo Zhitao continued, picking out more red lingerie, including some very revealing items like thongs. He looked at them with a lustful expression, as if trying to find something.

The female boss felt both embarrassed and angry. She felt as if Mo Zhitao was looking at her private parts. She said angrily, "Director Mo, what are you doing?"

"I'm looking for something," Mo Zhitao said, glancing at the female boss. She felt as if he was looking at her private areas and became furious. She took out her phone to call the bodyguard, intending to have him remove Mo Zhitao.

"I found it," Mo Zhitao said, pointing to the female boss's thong.

The female boss felt a tightness in her chest, as if Mo Zhitao was pointing at her private parts. She instinctively covered herself and tightly crossed her legs. "Director Mo," she glared at him.

"This is the toxic creature that bit you. It's called a red-headed ant," Mo Zhitao said, taking a glass bottle from his pocket. He opened the lid, and with a quick movement, the female boss saw a red ant in the bottle.

"What is that?" the female boss stared at the bottle.

"Look for yourself," Mo Zhitao placed the bottle in front of her. The female boss saw the red ant inside.

"Director Mo, are you trying to trick me? Is this a toxic creature? There are ants in our villa area. Are they all toxic?" the female boss asked, feeling deceived. She thought Mo Zhitao was intentionally trying to see her private clothing. She was even more angry when she realized he had carefully examined her thongs and other intimate items.
