Qiu Tong rubbed her wrists indifferently, not taking them seriously.

The boorish man carried his injured friend back to the clinic at the end of the street. He shouted angrily. “Sister! That clinic doesn’t know its place! Tell Mayor Shen to destroy them! I don’t know where this bullshit miracle doctor came from and how much business she has already stolen from us!”

“They are showing you utter disrespect!”

Hearing this, a woman in a white coat swept a bunch of medicine all over the floor. “It’s that b*tch again! I’m going to get her kicked out of the clinic!”

At night, in a room on a round bed in the hotel, the air was filled with the scent of love.

Mayor Shen was so tired that he collapsed on the bed. He hugged his lover and patted her butt.

The woman snuggled in his arms and said, “My dear, someone is bullying me! Are you going to do something about it? I don’t know where this swindling woman came from. She stole my business and even hit my people!”

“She obviously doesn’t respect you! She clearly knows that I’m yours…”

She deliberately provoked as her hands continued teasing him.

Mayor Shen’s eyes were bloodshot. He flipped over and pinned the woman down while panting heavily. He promised. “Serve me well tonight. Tomorrow, I’ll send some people over to settle them!”

The next day, when Qiu Tong arrived at the clinic from the kindergarten, she saw a few police officers putting a seal on the door…

When the boss saw her, he quickly ran over quietly and said bitterly, “The clinic is closed for business.”

“They claim that the environment does not meet hygiene standards. I tried a bit of bribery and heard that… it was because I hired a non-licensed staff.”

He stole a glance at Qiu Tong’s face and said frankly, “I’m guessing you offended some higher-ups yesterday. You definitely can’t continue practicing medicine.”

Although the boss hoped that he could keep this miracle doctor, he had no choice but to let her go if he wished to continue his business!

After pondering for a long time, he was finally forced to tell Qiu Tong that she need not come to the clinic in the future…

Having lost her job, Qiu Tong frowned worriedly. Thinking of the three little kids at home and the five greedy mercenaries, she felt a headache coming on.

At noon, the whole family sat at the dining table. The table was filled with vegetables.

Qiu Tong ate the stir-fried vegetables without any restraint, not forgetting to select a few nutritious leafy vegetables and placing them in the children’s bowls. Ke Le was stunned by the sight of Qiu Tong and the three children digging into their food.

There were two rice grains at the corner of Little Yu’s mouth. She looked up at him and asked in a childish voice, “Uncle, why aren’t you eating?”

“If you don’t eat now, you’ll go hungry!”

Ke Le and his men looked at each other. Not wanting to disappoint the little angels, they could only take up their chopsticks and dig into their food…

Qiu Xingyuan and the other two had a hard life before. To be able to fill their stomachs with white rice alone would have been good enough for them.

But Ke Le was a carnivorous mercenary. If he couldn’t eat meat, how would he have the strength?

He picked up two vegetable leaves, chewing and swallowing with difficulty. His face was pale.

“Boss, can our food… be slightly better?”

Ke Le went into the kitchen and took the initiative to wash the bowls for Qiu Tong. His thick arms holding onto the small porcelain bowls looked rather comical.

The baskets on the floor were filled with the cheapest vegetables. Ke Le felt dizzy just looking at them…

Qiu Tong was also helpless. Seeing that Qiu Xingqiao had led Qiu Xingyuan and Qiu Xingyu Bao to exercise their bodies, she said, “I have spent all my money to hire you. Where would I get the spare cash to buy meat? I just lost my job today too. Life is tough!”

Especially now that the children’s bodies were still growing, they couldn’t go back to catching mice and birds to eat!

Qiu Tong was fretting as she plucked at the vegetables to vent her frustration. Where could she find a job to earn money?

Why not try the boxing ring again?

Ke Le was taken aback by her words. He had been impressed by Qiu Tong’s skills and had never expected her to lack money!

He suggested to Qiu Tong, “With your ability, you can try accepting missions from the Dark Web! The rewards are very high!”

“We saw recently that there is a high-paying local contract to protect important persons and eliminate terrorists…”

“But to be honest, that mission is definitely dangerous and not as easy as protecting some children! That’s why we didn’t take it on!”

Ke Le scratched his head foolishly. Qiu Tong’s eyes lit up as if she could see a large wad of cash waving at her.

With great interest, she peppered Ke Le with questions about the process of accepting missions from the Dark Web before running back to her room. She entered the Dark Web and went straight to the special mission!

According to the communication method provided by the Dark Web, Qiu Ying dialed the other party’s number. After a few seconds of the dialing tone, she tapped the screen lightly with her fingers and narrowed her eyes.

“Hello?”

The voice on the other end sounded extremely metallic, but Qiu Tong found it rather familiar. She stared at the Dark Web mission.. “I’m here to apply to be a personal bodyguard…”
