Chapter 431: Chapter 431: Hua Youwei Apologizes

Just then, on the sickbed, Hua Haishan suddenly let out a cry of "Ah" and opened his eyes, abruptly sitting up.

He looked incredibly spirited!

All members of the Hua Family were shocked beyond belief, their mouths agape as they stared at Xiao Zheng. Was he... really cured? They momentarily didn’t know how to express their current emotions.

Damn it!

Slapping someone could cure illness?

"I... where am I, and why... does my face hurt so much?"

Hua Haishan turned his head to look around and noticed everyone surrounding him, each giving him very strange looks, causing a perplexed expression to appear in his eyes.

"Father."

Seeing this, Hua Muran couldn’t contain herself anymore, she cried out and threw herself into Hua Haishan’s arms, "You had your daughter worried to death."

As the Clan Leader of a major family with exceptional abilities, Hua Haishan quickly regained his composure. He patted Hua Muran’s back and smiled, "Muran, why cry? Aren’t I fine? Can someone tell me what just happened?"

Hua Muran cried for a while, then relayed everything that had just occurred. Although she was emotional, her account was clear and coherent, and Hua Haishan quickly understood what had happened.

"Thank you, Mr. Xiao, for saving my life."

Hua Haishan immediately looked at Xiao Zheng with gratitude.

Although he was very grateful, he did not display any particularly special gestures. In his view, it was only right for a doctor to save lives and treat illnesses, and a simple token of appreciation afterward would suffice.

At that moment, Hua Muran suddenly said, "Father, do you remember Brother Xiao? He’s the Xiao Zheng I told you about before, the one who saved me once."

Hua Haishan’s expression changed dramatically!

"Xiao Zheng?"

Upon hearing that name, Hua Haishan was utterly startled.

How could he not know the name Xiao Zheng? A few years ago, the young prodigy who dominated Zhonghai as the Master of Tianji Sect! Back then, just a word from him could shake Zhonghai City.

He had also heard recently that this prodigious young man had returned to Zhonghai City and was just as phenomenal as before, immediately annihilating the major powers of Qing Liancheng!

Such a figure was simply incomparable to the Hua Family.

A whirlwind of thoughts flashed through Hua Haishan’s mind, and he no longer saw Xiao Zheng merely as a doctor. The Master of Tianji Sect personally treating him was, no matter how you looked at it, a huge favor!

Hua Haishan struggled to his feet from the bed and bowed deeply to Xiao Zheng, showing utmost respect, "I never imagined that the man who saved me would be the legendary prodigious young man. How fortunate I am!"

Meanwhile, Hua Youwei, standing nearby, was completely stunned.

He had never before seen his father treat anyone like this.

Hearing "Xiao Zheng" and "prodigious young man," Hua Youwei was shocked and looked towards Xiao Zheng with an incredulous thought.

Could he... could he be the Sect Leader of Tianji Sect?

Thinking back to his own disrespectful actions towards Xiao Zheng earlier, cold sweat broke out on Hua Youwei’s back. He was literally seeking death!

However, having been the center of attention in the Hua family from birth with only Hua Muran outmatching him, Hua Youwei had developed an arrogant character early on.

Despite the shock and fear, he quickly changed his thoughts, thinking secretly: "Isn’t he just a former leader of Tianji Sect? What’s that to me? We are around the same age, and I, Hua Youwei, may not necessarily be inferior to him!"

"Moreover, although I was somewhat arrogant just now, it was all for a reason, and the people around can testify to that. Xiao Zheng also has a good relationship with my sister, so how could he bear to trouble me? There definitely won’t be a problem," he thought.

With this thought, Hua Youwei relaxed, the corners of his mouth curling into a cold smirk.

Even if Xiao Zheng had great glories in the past, those days were long gone; he was merely a former Sect Leader! Hua Youwei thought to himself.

But just then, a fierce shout suddenly rang in Hua Youwei’s ears, "You unfilial son! What are you still dazed about here for? Don’t you know what you just did? Apologize to Mr. Xiao immediately!"

It was Hua Haishan.

After Hua Haishan learned of Xiao Zheng’s true identity, he recalled the scenario described by Hua Muran, specifically the part where Hua Youwei repeatedly tried to call the bodyguards to drive Xiao Zheng away. Cold sweat broke out all over his body.

It was well known that the Master of Tianji Sect was ruthless. Although in light of Hua Muran’s face, Xiao Zheng might not necessarily trouble Hua Youwei, still, it was indisputable that Hua Youwei had left a very bad impression on Xiao Zheng—certainly not a good thing by any means!

Feeling defiant, Hua Youwei blurted out, "Father, I think everyone understood the situation just now. Although Mr. Xiao possesses unique skills, none of us could tell that, so some misjudgments were made. That’s understandable, isn’t it? Does that really require an apology? Mr. Xiao isn’t so petty, right?"

Upon hearing these words, everyone shook their heads.

"Xiao Zheng saved your father’s life. How could you treat him like that and argue against apologizing now? You’re still trying to save face at a time like this."

You even tried to pressure Xiao Zheng with your words!

No matter how you look at it, you’re the one being petty!

Indeed, upon hearing this, Hua Haishan’s face grew extremely unpleasant, and rage seemed to spew from his eyes.

This child is simply too worrisome!

He also felt extremely embarrassed, barely knowing how to face Xiao Zheng. Having such a son was a total disgrace!

However, Xiao Zheng just gave a faint smile and glanced at Hua Haishan.

Hua Haishan immediately felt a chill run through him!

"This Xiao Zheng... although he has a good relationship with my daughter, it is only that. Not only did my son treat him rudely at the start, but now he’s also made these remarks. If he really angers Xiao Zheng..."

The consequences would be unbearable to imagine.

"Kneel down!"

Thinking this, Hua Haishan shouted sternly.

His voice was very harsh.

Seeing his father furious, Hua Youwei, who was usually very afraid of his father, felt even more frightened and immediately knelt down with a thud.

The members of the Hua Family shook their heads upon seeing this scene.

"You see, if you really stood by your own opinion, that would be one thing; no matter what, you’d be considered a tough guy. But just a scolding from your father has you scared witless; it’s really quite disgraceful."

"Kowtow to Mr. Xiao! Apologize! Otherwise, don’t call me father anymore!" Hua Haishan said fiercely.

Even though Hua Youwei felt indignant, he was too terrified to disobey the harsh words he had never heard before from Hua Haishan; he could only kneel and kowtow.

He said to Xiao Zheng, "Mr. Xiao, I’m sorry, I was wrong earlier."

Yet, in his heart, he was extremely annoyed with Xiao Zheng!
