I run a clinic in the United States

Chapter 400 Gambling Agreement
Grace called the clerk and ordered two drinks and three snacks without asking Sophie's opinion.

Sophie curled her lips, feeling extremely aggrieved.

But then when I saw what Grace ordered, I couldn't help but grin.

Because, Grace said she ordered it casually, but in fact she also took Sophie's taste into consideration. She has been dating Sophie for so long and knows Sophie's preferences.

The drink she ordered was Sophie’s favorite caramel macchiato, and she had Earl Gray milk tea. The snacks were also Sophie’s favorite French Napoleon mille-feuille, plus version of floss and taro paste scallops, and passion fruit and blueberry sauce sandwich white chocolate cake.

Although Grace felt that the Sophie around her was a bit unattractive and her education and experience were slightly inferior, she was still very careful and considerate.

"I didn't expect you to be the princess of the Nordic royal family. Please forgive my ignorance." Faced with the stunning beauty with a distinguished status, Grace was very humble and smiled charmingly. Then she invited her, "I wonder if it would be an honor to drink with you alone. A cup of coffee, or going out to sea together? "

Elena and Ava looked at each other, shrugged slightly, and felt that it would be great if Grace was not a lesbian, then she would have a really beautiful smile. Now this smile, well, maybe it looks very beautiful to men. Charming, but they both shuddered somewhat.

Especially Ava, she got goosebumps.

Yes, she often hugged and slept with her sister, but that was because the two had grown up together and had an extremely close relationship. It was uncomfortable for a strange woman to have intentions towards them.

This Grace is different.

Grace waved her hand: "No more!"

Ava smiled and said: "Of course I also like Dr. Zhou's eight-pack abs, they are great! I have no interest in women at all. If I really did, wouldn't my sister and I have been married long ago?"

Elena chuckled and said, "Really? Zhou Qiao looks thin when he's dressed, but has muscular body when he's undressed. He has a great body. If you don't believe me, Qiao, lift up your clothes and show her."

However, Zhou Qiao is nowhere to be found.

Ava glanced at Zhou Qiao secretly, and when she saw Zhou Qiao's indifferent expression, she thought to herself that men are all big pigs, how can this be imagined?
Okay, I admit, this Grace is very beautiful, dressed neutrally, and has an alternative beauty.

"What secret?" Grace became curious.

"What's a pity? What's so pity?" Elena asked.

In the United States, lesbians are all upright. Like Grace, she is extremely proud. She takes her girlfriend out and has sex with her openly and flirts with us in front of her girlfriend. What does our behavior mean?
We have never had much close contact with Zhou Qiao in public. At most, they were holding hands one on the left and the other on the right. None of them have ever kissed.

Who knows, Elena shook her head and said: "No, I don't like women. I'm not bisexual, I only like men."

Zhou Qiao stroked his forehead, what a tiger and wolf talk. Why did we end up talking about this while we were chatting?
Fortunately, I only talked about the abdominal muscles, not the more private parts.

Elena glanced at Zhou Qiao quietly, then lowered her voice and said: "Dr. Zhou's eight-pack abs are super awesome, and they feel more comfortable than women!" It's not like she has never touched women before, her sister can touch them every day. She also touched Murphy and Stephanie.

At this time, the clerk brought drinks and snacks, but when the other party wanted to leave, the clerk didn't know what to do for a while.

"Ah? You..." Grace looked left and right, and suddenly felt that she had discovered a huge secret.

A man’s abdominal muscles, hey, it makes me sick to death just thinking about it.

Grace was inevitably disappointed. She was stunned for a moment and said with regret, "That's such a pity."

Grace was a little unwilling to give up and asked Ava again: "What about you?"

Grace felt frustrated and suddenly felt endlessly depressed. She immediately pulled Sophie and said in a deep voice: "Let's go!"

Grace also quickly stopped and said, "No, please don't, I'm going to vomit just listening to it!" She turned slightly and made a vomiting gesture.

Grace glanced at Elena and said faintly: "Isn't it a pity that you are so beautiful, but you have taken advantage of a stinky man in vain?"

Holding hands or linking arms is nothing.

She was also afraid that Grace would get involved with her, so she was also a little cruel.

He nodded quickly and said, "Yes, yes."

Elena and Ava just laughed. The two looked at each other and said to themselves, you are so ignorant that you want to vomit such a wonderful thing. If you look at the more powerful parts of Zhou Qiao's body, you will be vomiting to death.

"Two beautiful ladies, your drinks and desserts..."

Grace swiped her card, Sophie took the drinks and snacks, and the two of them went out.

Zhou Qiao glared and said, "Don't be ridiculous."

"No, no, no, no, help me pack it up, I want to take it away, thank you." Sophie knew how to run a house, so she quickly asked the clerk to help pack it.

"The bill..."

They had fooled around with Murphy, but Murphy was such a cool beauty and it was fun to tease him, but Murphy had absolutely no such thoughts towards them. When the three of them were with Zhou Qiao, the focus was all on Zhou Qiao.

Elena and Ava shrugged, indifferent.

"We've heard about your... scandals..." Elena took a breath, adjusted her state, and asked straight to the point, "You don't want to pick up on me, do you?"

Grace couldn't help feeling nauseous, but she still couldn't help it. She glanced at Zhou Qiao's abdominal muscles in surprise and said, "I don't believe it. He has abdominal muscles just like him? And eight pieces? Do you think I'm a threesome?" There’s a kid!”

Grace did not make things difficult for the clerk and said, "Just pay the bill. If you don't want the items, throw them in the trash can!" She was really feeling depressed.

"Haha, I don't think so. I enjoy it very much. Let me tell you a secret secretly. I usually don't share this secret with others." Elena said mysteriously.

Grace was stunned for a moment, and then secretly rejoiced. Was it so straightforward? It seems that I have a chance.

Zhou Qiao quietly gave a thumbs up.

Not that I was pretending, but I really felt like vomiting.

Her method of chasing women is sometimes very clumsy, and most of her energy is focused on her studies. At this moment, Grace looks a little silly.

"Ah, okay!" Sophie immediately beamed with joy.

They stayed with Zhou Qiao all day long, and some rumors had long been spread by interested people. But they really don't care.

After walking away, Sophie smiled coquettishly while eating delicious snacks. She was so happy that she shouted: "I told you a long time ago that people will not like you."

Grace immediately launched an "attack": "You still dare to laugh at me? See if I don't deal with you severely!"

"No~" Sophie trembled slightly, but judging from her voice, she seemed to be enjoying it and looking forward to it.

However, this is a street after all, with people coming and going, so it is not very convenient. Grace decided to punish Sophie properly after returning to the hotel.

After Grace went back, she and Sophie finished making love, and while Sophie was sleeping, she secretly downloaded the short video APP and watched it with gusto. When she saw some videos of Iris Clinic and Xue Qiao Selection, she was stunned.

"Oh my God!"

"There are so many beauties in the Iris Clinic? Are Murphy and Stephanie so beautiful? And what about Chiba Nanako, Cherry Yang? Star Thalia?"

……

After Grace fell asleep, she had a night's dream of having an affair with a few beauties from the Iris Clinic, intoxicated and dreamy.

The next day, she called a staff member of the competition organizing committee and asked for Zhou Qiao’s phone number.

The organizing committee of the competition naturally has the contact information of the judges and teachers. The other party asked Grace about her intentions. Grace said that she had some medical questions and wanted to consult Zhou Qiao.

The staff admired Grace's learning spirit, so they found Zhou Qiao's phone number and gave it to her.

Grace was overjoyed and immediately called Zhou Qiao: "Dr. Zhou, this is Grace. Is it convenient for you to call now?"

"It's convenient. Doctor Grace, are you okay?" Zhou Qiao was also a little surprised. He hadn't gotten up yet, and the twin girls gathered around him. They were also very curious and wanted to hear what Grace wanted to say.

Grace said: "You said before that you wanted to invite me to work at Iris Clinic. Is it still valid?"

Zhou Qiao immediately refused and said: "It's invalid!"

"Why? You can't keep your word?" Grace was anxious.

Zhou Qiao said seriously: "You must have fallen in love with the beauty in my clinic, right? That's not okay!"

Elena and Ava were laughing nearby. The two of them eavesdropped and moved their hands up and down.

Grace: "I...really not. I just admire the name of Iris Clinic and want to...can't I just visit it?"

"No." Zhou Qiao refused, thought for a while, and then said very seriously, "Actually, Grace, based on my experience, your... sexual orientation cognitive disorder should be caused by acquired factors and should be a psychological The disease is completely correctable. Don’t worry, I respect your sexual orientation, but this is just a suggestion. It’s up to you whether you want to or not.”

"Then shut up! Trash!" Grace cursed, hung up the phone angrily, and then started throwing things angrily.

Because what Zhou Qiao just said really offended her. Garbage, smelly and dirty garbage, my father can't even control me, why do you want to talk more?

Sophie quickly came over to hug her and began to comfort her.

After some soothing, Grace finally calmed down.

"Dear, don't care about other people's opinions, we just want to be happy." Sophie said.

Grace looked at Sophie and said to herself, I am really unhappy.

Perhaps, what you can’t get is always restless.

There is a joke on the Internet, saying that the mother warned her daughter: "Don't look for a handsome guy when looking for a boyfriend. If you find someone who is too handsome, the other person will be dishonest."

The daughter disagreed: "If I find someone ugly, I will be dishonest."

Grace is that daughter.

……

Since the competition was over, the prize had been won, and something unhappy happened that was criticized by Zhou Qiao, Grace and Sophie did not stay in New York for too long, and soon returned to Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston and got into work.

However, Sophie is not a very strict girl. When chatting with her colleagues, she accidentally revealed the "conflict" between Grace and Zhou Qiao. Including Zhou Qiao’s words about “slandering” Grace.

By chance, Grace's father, Dr. Albert, heard her passing by.

"This Sophie..." Dr. Albert shook his head and left.

Originally, he thought that if it didn't work out, he would just accept Sophie. But now it seems that Sophie is really... of too low a quality.

"Are you talking about my daughter behind her back?" Dr. Albert already looked down on Sophie, and now he couldn't help but feel even more disgusted.

In fact, Sophie didn't mean it. She was just being teased by her colleagues and asked about some gossip in New York. She couldn't help but tell it without any malice. Instead, she was complaining about Zhou Qiao for being so rude. She was also very angry and felt sorry for Grace for being bullied like this. However, in Dr. Albert's ears, it was very unpleasant.

In his opinion, anything that would have a negative impact on his daughter was a bad word.

"This Sophie is totally brainless. If my daughter is with her, she will kill her sooner or later!"

Dr. Albert returned to the office, lit a cigarette, came to the window and took a deep breath, looking at the blue sky in a daze.

He can accept that other people's daughters are lesbians.

Last year, I attended a friend’s same-sex marriage and sent her gifts and blessings.

However, I just can't accept that my daughter is a lesbian.

He sincerely hoped that, as Dr. Zhou said, it was fake.

……

At the same time, Zhou Qiao and his twin girls also came to Boston.

Teacher Domitri’s research institute is here, and he is also a member here. He also has a deep cooperative relationship with Boston Medical Company. New York is actually relatively close to Boston, less than 300 kilometers away, while New York is 4,000 kilometers away from San Francisco. It’s so many kilometers away. It’s hard to make a trip to the east without stopping by Boston for a walk.

Zhou Qiao came to Harvard University to communicate with colleagues at the institute.

The twin girls had never been here before and were very interested. They also asked Zhou Qiao to take them on a boat trip later.

They had heard Murphy and Stephanie say before that sailing along the Charles River with Zhou Qiao was very beautiful and they could also see big whales.

In particular, there are many plump wild ducks on the Charles River, and Zhou Qiao also has dozens of recipes for cooking these wild ducks. It's fascinating to hear.

After communicating with colleagues and taking the twin girls to visit Harvard Yard, suddenly, a middle-aged man saw them and came over to say hello.

"Hi, Dr. Zhou, I didn't expect such a coincidence." The man waved and ran over with a bit of surprise.

"You are..." Zhou Qiao didn't recognize the other party.

"I'm Dr. Albert."

"Oh, I remembered. I'm sorry, I didn't recognize him before." Zhou Qiao immediately stretched out his hand and shook hands with the other party.

Zhou Qiao and Dr. Albert met once before at an academic exchange conference. However, because Zhou Qiao was too busy at the time, he did not come to the scene in person. Instead, he gave a report and shared it through a video connection.

"Director Albert of the Massachusetts General Hospital Heart Center, right? If my prediction is correct, the winner of this competition is your daughter Grace. Congratulations, congratulations!"

"Thank you," Dr. Albert shook hands with Zhou Qiao, thought for a while, and said, "Your teacher, Academician Domitri, also worked at Massachusetts General Hospital when he was young, and served as the director of the Heart Center and the Director of the Cancer Center. , the deputy director of the hospital, so we are quite close."

A few pleasantries narrowed the distance.

The reason why Dr. Albert appears here is that he is not only the director of the Heart Center of Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts General Hospital, but also a senior professor at Harvard Medical School. He occasionally comes here to teach students. , and then met Zhou Qiao.

Asians like Zhou Qiao, accompanied by beautiful twin beauties, were very conspicuous in the crowd. Dr. Albert just came out of a corridor and saw him at a glance.

"I heard that Grace was a little disrespectful to you. I apologize to you for this. Grace is spoiled by me. Don't take it to heart." Dr. Albert heard Sophie say that Grace was so angry on the phone Li scolded Zhou Qiao as trash.

That's really rude.

Fortunately, it wasn't during the competition. If the competition was going on, he would probably have annoyed the judge Zhou Qiao and would have given him a low score.

Zhou Qiao smiled and said: "Actually, I did something wrong, so I should apologize."

"Dr. Zhou is really personable. Are you free, let's have a cup of coffee together?" Dr. Albert said thoughtfully, "I would like to discuss my daughter's condition with you."

The reason why he ran over to see Zhou Qiao was because he had the remaining hope.

Zhou Qiao has a great reputation, has created many miracles, and is skilled in many fields. If such a top-notch, legendary figure has different views and insights on Grace's "condition", maybe it will really be a ray of light.

Although Zhou Qiao is relatively young, age is not a problem for a genius.

Zhou Qiao shrugged and said, "It's my honor!"

So, Dr. Albert invited Zhou Qiao and the twin girls to a coffee shop on the Harvard University campus. They chose a corner and the four of them drank coffee and chatted.

This time is actually the morning class time, and many students have classes, so the coffee shop is not as busy as at night.

Otherwise, when the "golden hour" comes, you won't be able to find a seat and have to queue up to buy coffee.

"Dr. Zhou, my daughter's condition is really fake. Is there any hope of correction?" Dr. Albert asked.

Zhou Qiao pondered for a moment and then said: "It's highly likely. But the specifics still need to be tested. In addition, this kind of disease will not be frozen in a day. If you want to completely correct it, it will take time, so you can't act too hastily."

"Is there really a way?" Dr. Albert was slightly excited, but did not show it, and asked calmly.

Zhou Qiao said: "I have some ideas. Well, I can take it in thirty-six steps and slowly and subtly change it."

So, with Dr. Albert's expectant eyes and attentive listening, Zhou Qiao briefly talked about his treatment plan.

After chatting for more than an hour and refilling two cups of coffee, Dr. Albert praised Zhou Qiao’s professionalism and expressed that he was reassured, confident and willing to try.

In the end, the negotiated medical fee was US$500,000.

Dr. Albert believes that it is not expensive. If it can be cured, the money will not be a problem.

With Zhou Qiao's current reputation, it is worth this price.

"It's just that I still need to discuss this matter with my daughter." Although Dr. Albert wanted to take his daughter to see a doctor, his daughter has grown up now and is not as easy to control as she was when she was a child.

We still have to discuss it, Dr. Albert smiled bitterly. It is estimated that another quarrel will inevitably happen.

Oh, what a headache. It hurts the relationship between father and daughter.

As for Dr. Albert's wife, Grace's mother, she is also a loving mother who dotes on her daughter, and there is nothing she can do about her daughter. When I was young, I relied on the strict Dr. Albert for discipline.

But now Dr. Albert can't control his daughter.

Before leaving, the two exchanged business cards.

Zhou Qiao said: "If you are sure, you can contact me at any time. Well, I will go back and sort out the diagnosis and treatment plan at night, and I can send it to your email tomorrow."

"Thank you, it was a nice conversation."

After Dr. Albert returned to the hospital in the afternoon, he had a chat with his daughter. As expected, the quarrel between father and daughter became fierce again in the office.

Many colleagues crept over and hid outside to listen in the corner.

Afterwards, everyone discussed privately.

"Dr. Albert is really worried about Grace!"

"Dr. Albert still refuses to give up. Lara's condition is not a mental illness and cannot be cured, right?"

"The director feels that the possibility of fakeness cannot be ruled out."

"Is Dr. Zhou really that good? Isn't he famous for his cosmetic surgery, heart surgery, tumor surgery, neurosurgery, etc.? How come he is good at mental illness? Could he be cheating money?"

"You're overthinking it. With Dr. Zhou's identity and status, he doesn't bother to do this kind of thing now. If he says he's sure, then he probably is. Let's wait and see."

"I really want to see if Iris Clinic can create another miracle this time!"

"If it is really corrected, my God, Iris Clinic will be like a god again."

There was a fierce argument in the office, and finally, Grace gave in helplessly.

However, she did not give in absolutely, but with the last trace of stubbornness, she raised her head and negotiated terms with her father: "This is the last time. If it doesn't work this time, I hope you won't interfere with my private life in the future. Even if I am with a girl You can’t control the marriage!”

"Okay, I don't care." Dr. Albert sighed, thinking that if she couldn't be cured this time, it would be really hopeless, so just let her be.

"Not only can't you control it, but you also have to send your blessings!" Grace said.

Dr. Albert: "Don't push yourself too far!"

Grace sneered: "What, you don't want to gamble? Then forget it."

"Okay, I promise you!" Dr. Albert had no choice but to agree.

"Oral promises won't work. I want to sign a written gambling agreement with you!" Grace made the request again.

Dr. Albert could only smile bitterly and said: "Are you afraid that old father will regret it?"

"Just tell me whether you want to sign or not?"

"Sign, sign, sign!" Dr. Albert really had nothing to do with his daughter.

However, Grace rolled her eyes and thought of so many beauties in the Iris Clinic. She thought to herself that since she wanted to bet, she would just make another big one and make a betting agreement with Zhou Qiao.

"Father, if you call Dr. Zhou over, I will also sign a gambling agreement with him!" Grace said.

"Ah?" Dr. Albert suddenly looked embarrassed, thinking that this was too difficult, right?

After all, he is the one who wants to ask Zhou Qiao to see a doctor for his daughter, but his daughter makes such a request? What if the other party is angry and refuses to accept the matter?
Grace shouted: "Forget it, I'll do it myself. If he doesn't dare to sign, that's good, I'll die!"

"No, let me invite you." Dr. Albert stopped him quickly, thinking that it would be even worse if you spoke freely.

After all, Dr. Albert is a person of status, and he had a pleasant communication with Zhou Qiao before. He also spoke more politely and tactfully, so that he would not be so unacceptable.

So Dr. Albert called Zhou Qiao and conveyed his daughter's unreasonable request tactfully.

"Dr. Zhou, my daughter is spoiled by me and makes you laugh."

When Dr. Albert said this, Grace bared her teeth and wanted to correct her father's bad wording.

Dr. Albert pressed his hand repeatedly to signal her to shut up.
