Physician's Odyssey

Chapter 670 - A Trap or Present

Translator: Thyaeria

Lin Kun had showered and was currently drying his hair with a hairdryer. While looking at himself in the mirror, he would find himself looking unspeakably dashing.

As for the mahjong incident earlier, it had already been tossed to the back of his mind. After all, he knew that Su Tao wasn’t a pushover, and if the two of them really fought, he would definitely be the one who suffers.

All of a sudden, his door was knocked. When he went over and opened the door, he saw Kohei Koizumi standing outside with an amicable smile on his face.

“Mr. Koizumi, is there anything?” Lin Kun immediately spoke in a humble tone as he subconsciously tidied up his clothes to make himself look presentable.

Pointing his finger in the room, Kohei Koizumi smiled. “I have some stuff that I would like to ask for your help with!”

“Please, enter!” Lin Kun immediately opened up a path.

When the two of them entered the room, Lin Kun suddenly felt at a loss. As Kohei Koizumi calmly sat on the chair, he asked, “Is the place fine?”

“That’s for sure, and thank you for your hospitality!” Lin Kun squeezed out a smile while feeling anxious. Not long ago, he even wanted to try and knock on the master bedroom to give a greeting to Asaka Ochi.

“May I ask what help you need from me?”

Looking at Lin Kun, who was somewhat panicky, Kohei Koizumi asked, “You like Asaka, right?”

“Ah? P-p-please don’t misu-u-understand. Your wife and I are j-j-just friends, and there’s n-n-nothing between us.” Lin Kun incoherently said.

Waving his hand, Kohei Koizumi sighed, “You don’t have to try and hide it. Actually, I had already investigated you when I was courting Asaka. You have a crush on Asaka, and your feelings did not change even after she was married.”

When Lin Kun was exposed, his heart suddenly throbbed and he felt the urge to jump out of the window and immediately leave. However, he remained composed and replied, “I do have some favourable impressions of Asaka, but it had started with love and ended with virtue. Furthermore, Asaka only has you in her heart, and you should be clearer than anyone in this matter.”

Letting out a long sigh, Kokei Koizumi responded, “That’s right! Asaka is a good woman, a good wife. On the other hand, I’m not worthy of being a man or husband. Please don’t misunderstand my intentions. I only hope that you can continue to protect Asaka after my death. Make her a blessed woman. Truth be told, ever since Asaka married me, we did not have a day of peace. My condition deteriorates by the day, and she has been taking care of me, which makes me feel guilty.”

Lin Kun had his eyes widened as he looked at Kohei Koizumi in disbelief. He was baffled at this moment. Just what is going on?

“The investment for a hotel chain is my kind intention. If you’re willing to continue to love and protect Asaka on my behalf, I will name you the legal representative to manage my assets after my death, and this can be a transaction between us.” Kohei Koizumi continued.

Hearing Kohei Koizumi’s shocking intentions, Lin Kun was caught by surprise. His first reaction was to wonder if Kohei Koizumi was trying to trick him into making him admit that he had an improper relationship with Asaka before having her leave the marriage with nothing.

Lin Kun heard that many wealthy people like Kohei Koizumi did not have any conscience, so how could such a great fortune befall onto him?

“Mr. Koizumi, I will always protect Asaka no matter what happens, but only as friends. Please do not misunderstand.” Lin Kun was cunning with his words since he had agreed to Kohei Koizumi’s request and avoided the probing.

Kohei Koizumi looked at Lin Kun with a complicated expression. This fellow was pretty cautious. Then again, he might be a good choice for him to entrust his wife to.

A man must not be too stupid, and they need to be cautious to stand in society. You have to first learn how to protect yourself before you can protect others.

With a smile, Kohei Koizumi took out a string of keys from his pocket and gently said, “The key to the master bedroom is here. Asaka has a habit of drinking milk before sleeping, and her milk today has something special added to it. If you want to obtain my investment, then you know what you should do tonight.”

When he finished, Kohei Koizumi stood up immediately and left.

Looking at the string of keys, Lin Kun was dumbfounded. What the heck was going on? Kohei Koizumi was telling him to enter the master bedroom and sleep with his wife?

No, this is definitely a trap!

Lin Kun gnashed his teeth and hesitated for a long time. In the end, he wasn’t determined enough to take the keys. In his view, Kohei Koizumi was definitely not such a good person.

He felt that this old man was trying to set up Asaka Ochi despite the fact that he’s dying soon.

Then again, Lin Kun was an outsider. He had no idea how much Kohei Koizumi and Asaka Ochi had gone through together.

Kohei Koizumi wasn’t trying to set up Lin Kun, but he genuinely hoped that Asaka Ochi could find someone to rely on after his death. If Asaka Ochi stays in the country, she would definitely be targeted by his children, so leaving the country was the best choice.

And coincidentally, Lin Kun showed up. Hence, Kohei Koizumi wanted to matchmake the two of them together as a plan for Asaka Ochi’s future. This was also the reason why he had invited Lin Kun over to his villa and even arranged his room beside the master bedroom.

However, Kohei Koizumi did not understand Lin Kun well. Lin Kun was a coward, and even if it was served to his mouth, he wouldn’t dare to take a bite out of fear that it might be poisoned.

Lin Kun fell into a dilemma. He had naturally considered the fact that Kohei Koizumi was genuinely trying to matchmake him and Asaka Ochi together, and if he hesitated, wouldn’t he be a fool?

“No, I must discuss this matter with Asaka! I have to tell her about it and see what she feels about this matter!” In the end, Lin Kun found a method for this issue.

Shoving the keys into his pocket, Lin Kun took a deep breath. He then went over to the master bedroom and knocked on the door.

“Who is it?” Asaka Ochi cautiously asked since she had just showered, and she’s only wearing a thin nightgown right now.

“It’s me!” Lin Kun replied.

“It’s late now. Is there anything?” Asaka Ochi locked her brows together as she cautiously asked.

“I have something that I would like to tell you, is it possible for me to come in?” Lin Kun requested.

“Can’t we do it tomorrow?” Asaka Ochi was wondering what Lin Kun intended to do. Wasn’t he a little too daring? This was her home, so wasn’t he afraid of causing a misunderstanding to knock on her door so late?

“It’s urgent!” Lin Kun solemnly said.

Letting out a sigh, Asaka Ochi could only drape a robe over her shoulders to cover the sight before her chest before she went to open the door.

When Lin Kun saw Asaka Ochi, his eyes lit up. If Asaka Ochi in the day was akin to a pure lotus, then she’s a lotus which had broken the surface at this moment. Although she did not have any makeup, there was a faint fragrance permeating from her that made her look incredibly charming.

Recalling Kohei Koizumi’s words, Lin Kun couldn’t help feeling expectant. At this moment, he felt that he would have no regrets if he could spend a night together with his crush.

Seeing Lin Kun’s gaze wandering over her body, Asaka Ochi knew what he was thinking. Hence, she did not allow him to enter and said in a solemn tone, “If there’s anything, then say it here.”

“Your husband gave me these keys.” Lin Kun smiled in embarrassment as he took out the keys.

Asaka Ochi instantly widened her eyes as she took the keys from Lin Kun. She immediately tested one out on her door and realised that it actually worked. She instantly fell into silence as she was pondering what was happening.

“I don’t have other intentions, and I’m just trying to tell you that your husband is trying to set you up.” Lin Kun solemnly said.

“Set me up?” Asaka Ochi was baffled as she looked at Lin Kun.

“It might not sound nice, but Kohei Koizumi does not have much time left, and if he passes away, you will definitely receive a huge sum of his assets since you’re his legal wife. But if you committed an affair in your marriage, he will have an excuse to have you leave the marriage with nothing. This way...” Lin Kun immediately explained.

“You don’t have to continue anymore. I believe that my husband isn’t that sort of person!” Asaka Ochi interrupted in annoyance.

Wearing a cold sneer, Lin Kun continued to instigate, “Then, can you explain what’s going on with these keys? Was he mad to give the keys to his wife’s bedroom to another man?”

The truth was, Kohei Koizumi really had gone mad.

Giving a little more thought into this matter, Asaka Ochi instantly figured out her husband’s intention. He had already hinted to her to find a new love when he passes away and remarry. And at this moment, Lin Kun appeared, so Kohei Koizumi might as well matchmake the two of them together.

However, Lin Kun had no idea about this, nor did he have any idea about the deep feelings the both of them have. Hence, he misunderstood Kohei Koizumi’s intention and analysed it to be a trap.

“Got it, thank you for letting me know. It’s getting late, and I have to rest now. You should rest, too!” Asaka Ochi replied in a soft tone and continued, “As for this matter, I will deal with it.”

When Lin Kun saw that Asaka Ochi wanted to shut the door, he immediately stretched his hand out and stopped her.

“Are you still going to be stubborn? That old fellow has been using you, and now that he doesn’t have much time left, he’s trying to get rid of you! Asaka, you know how I feel about you, and I don’t wish for you to be hurt!” Lin Kun said with indignance in his tone.

After that, Lin Kun placed his hands on her shoulders and shook her.

Asaka Ochi was instantly startled by Lin Kun’s actions, but she did not dare to yell out for help. After all, there were so many people in the house, and if this matter blew up, everyone would be embarrassed. Furthermore, this matter even involved her husband’s dignity.

“What are you doing?” Su Tao coincidentally came out of the room and saw this scene, in which he misunderstood that Lin Kun was trying to force himself on Asaka Ochi. He strode forth in big steps and gave Lin Kun an overhead throw.
