Love Contract

Chapter 372 Extra Story Probably Destiny (Part One)

"If the first encounter between two people is just an accident, and the second encounter is coincidence. Then the third one is probably destiny."

Lucas sat inside the surgery consulting room of People's Hospital, reading a book that he could barely pronounce. Butthen, this sentence piqued his interest. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Destiny?

He furrowed his brows and rubbed his chin with his thumb and index finger. He was contemplating the meaning behind the sentence.

The first time he met the girl was during a banquet held at the 10th anniversary of AJ Group. That woman was dressed in a waitress' outfit. She spilled some wine on his suit, and refused to apologize. He completely made a fool of himself.

The second time they ran into each other, she splashed water all over him when she was driving through a road, but she defended herself without remorse. The worst part about it was that she had already forgotten about him. Damn it!

He was incredibly unlucky during his first and second encounters with her. Lucas scoffed as he remembered the third time he ran into her. He would never forget that night. It was Chinese Valentines' Day. That woman was actually drugged. Fortunately, he saved her by sleeping with her. He actually thought he had won this round.

"Ha ha, I've got you, Jazlyn!" Lucas couldn't resist laughing when he thought about that woman. He was blissfully unaware of the people behind him.

"Dr. Zhao, is he the expert specially invited here by your hospital?" a middle-aged woman asked as her mouth twitched.

"Ahem..." Julian Zhao was slightly embarrassed. He patted Lucas on the shoulder. "Lucas!"

"Hmm? What's up?" Lucas returned to reality and turned around. He realized that there was a group of people behind. He stopped his smile and asked, "Uncle Julian, who are all these people?"

"Oh, they're my friends. I want you to examine all of them."

"You're quite young, aren't you? Are you sure you can do it?" the middle-aged woman said disdainfully as she eyed Lucas from head to toe. She turned her body to the side along with her bag.

"That's right. Julian, we've been friends with you for several years now," a middle-aged man echoed. "You can't fool any of us!"

Lucas raised an eyebrow and scoffed. "The greatest respect a patient can give to a doctor is to have faith in him, and the doctor will reward the patient with a cure. If you don't believe in me, then I don't have any choice. Uncle Julian, I’m sorry, but I'm afraid I can't help these people."

"You arrogant fool!" The woman glared at Lucas and turned to Julian. "Dr. Zhao, find me a more competent doctor! He acts like he's superior to others at such a young age. I don't think he has the ability to deal with any sickness."

"Uncle Julian, I must leave. I have more pressing matters to attend to. Please, find a more competent doctor for this 'lovely' lady." Lucas nodded politely and left the consulting room. The way he said "more competent" and "lovely" held a tinge of sarcasm. 'Are you kidding me? I was specially invited here by the hospital! How dare they judge me for my age? If my father hadn't forced me to work in this hospital, I might've been at ease working somewhere else! I probably wouldn't even be a doctor!' Lucas shouted in his mind while swaggering in the corridor.

"What was the name of that young doctor? I'm going to sue him for unprofessionalism!'' the middle- aged woman shouted angrily when she saw Lucas leaving in a hurry.

"He's so arrogant!"

Julian sighed. "Actually, he's not a resident doctor. He's just here to help."

"So, he's just a helper? Why is he acting so high and mighty?"

Julian felt a little abashed, and said with an unfriendly tone, "His father is actually Eugene Murong, the first person who managed to combine Chinese and Western medicines to cure cancer. He was the one who increased the chances of curing cancer by thirty percent. That young doctor is called Lucas, Eugene's only begotten son. He's been working for this hospital for a few years now, taking over his father's position. What's wrong with him acting a little arrogant? I think it's his bragging right."

"What did you say? Is he really Dr. Eugene Murong's son?" The woman's face turned as pale as a ghost. "I heard that their whole family moved abroad. What's he doing here?"

"Why couldn't he come back to his own country?" Julian scoffed with disdain. "Alright, let's go. I'll bring you to someone else."

"Hey, is it okay if you call him back?" Because of what he heard, a man rushed out of the consulting room but Lucas was long gone.

He ran downstairs and happily wandered the halls of the hospital, pondering on what had happened earlier.

He had been reading medical books with his father ever since he was a child. He often heard the motto "save lives and heal wounds." It was often hanging at the back of his mind. At first, he did not want to be a doctor, but since he already was a doctor, there was no sense in doing it if he wasn't

going to do his best. But those people were so rude and hateful that he just wanted to leave them alone!

He made his way to the window for medicine dispensing, and he stared at the people waiting in line. When he was about to step forward to check what he could do to help, his eyes lit up. Among those people waiting in line, he noticed Jazlyn!

He had been looking for her for days, and she actually appeared in front of him again.

Tm going to catch you today!' he thought. 'How dare you call me a prostitute and pay me money. You wicked woman!'

Lucas's lips curled into a devilish smile. He approached Jazlyn and was about to catch her.

She was standing on tiptoes from time to time, and mumbled, "Why are there so many people here?" 'The boss won't be able to wait any longer. Hurry up!'

Fortunately, the two people in front of her finished quickly. Seeing that there was no one in front of her anymore, Jazlyn quickly stepped forward and handed the prescription to the person on the other side of the window. But before she could feel at ease, she felt an unusual breath wafting into her nape. She suddenly felt a strange and overwhelming pressure.

"Jazlyn Xu, let me see how you will escape today!" Lucas shouted.

Hearing his voice, Jazlyn turned around instinctively. She narrowed her eyes, showing a fierce expression that was unnatural for a girl. She bent down and swept the man's leg.

Within one fell swoop, Lucas fell on his backside.

"How dare you launch that surprise attack? You idiot!" Jazlyn gritted her teeth and pounced on him. She pressed her arm against his neck and said, "Tell me! Who the hell sent you here? How in the

world did you find me?"

"Ahem..." Lucas's face was turning purple as he gasped for air. 'Damn it! I was knocked down!' Feeling humiliated, he roared, "Let me go! Wrecked woman!"

Jazlyn was about to ask his intentions, but when she saw his face, she realized that he was an 'acquaintance' of hers. Then, she took a closer look at the man's uniform and asked, "Why are you here? How come it's you?"
