Chapter 551: Chapter 551: Who the Hell Did You Annoy?

However, just as Xiao Zheng had stood up, the door was pushed open, and a young woman entered.

She was fairly attractive, dressed in rather gaudy attire, with an anxious expression on her face. She walked briskly towards the bed where Jiang Guosheng’s granddaughter was lying, calling out, "Xiao Yun, Xiao Yun, how are you feeling?"

Seeing this, Xiao Zheng stood still and did not move.

Jiang Guosheng furrowed his brow slightly.

"Yuan Zhu, don’t you see we have guests? Come here and pay your respects quickly!" Jiang Guosheng said with a bit of sternness.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhu shifted her gaze from Jiang Guosheng’s granddaughter, Xiao Yun, to Xiao Zheng. After she saw that Xiao Zheng was a young man, she paused slightly, then asked, "Dad, this is..."

Jiang Guosheng replied, "This gentleman is the renowned doctor specially invited by Old Hua to treat Xiao Yun. Old Hua said that his previous illness was personally cured by Mr. Xiao."

Yuan Zhu eyed Xiao Zheng critically from head to toe for a while and then said in a doubtful tone, "Dad, are you sure you haven’t been deceived? How can such a young person be a renowned doctor?

What hospital does he work at? What kinds of people has he cured? Have you verified all these details? Please don’t just carelessly invite all sorts of questionable people into our home."

"This daughter-in-law..."

Jiang Guosheng’s expression darkened slightly. To openly speak such words in front of others, wasn’t this completely disrespectful to him?

Even if there were doubts, they should have been discussed privately.

This way, he was left completely without dignity.

Yet, Jiang Guosheng also felt somewhat helpless.

In Zhonghai, he was not a small character, having built a considerable family business, yet his son was not competent, not even able to maintain what was already there.

However, this daughter-in-law was capable and strategic.

Over the years, as Jiang Guosheng aged and gradually stepped back from the family company’s operations, it was this daughter-in-law who took over, managing it effectively and even achieving some progress and development.

Furthermore, this daughter-in-law had given birth to a granddaughter and another grandchild for him. She also came from a rather ordinary family with no significant relatives, so Jiang Guosheng was not worried about losing power to outsiders; after all, the business would ultimately end up in the hands of his grandson, and the business’s legacy would still bear the Jiang surname.

Thus, Jiang Guosheng gradually handed over the management of these family assets to Yuan Zhu.

However, this brought a side effect: as her hands held more power, this daughter-in-law became increasingly arrogant, sometimes even disregarding Jiang Guosheng himself.

That was why the scene just now occurred.

"Hurry up and apologize to Mr. Xiao! Hmph, this person was invited by Old Hua, do you think he could be a fraud?" Jiang Guosheng said sharply.

"Heh, what Old Hua, they’re all a bunch of old men, these days such elders often get deceived by things like Qi Gong and the like."

Yuan Zhu was unabatedly defiant, her gaze somewhat fierce, "I absolutely will not allow my daughter to be treated by such a young lad!"

For a period recently, this daughter-in-law, Yuan Zhu, had devoted all her energy to a major family project, so she had neglected Xiao Yun.

Now, having freed up, she immediately rushed over. Yuan Zhu, who had been managing the company, had gained a lot of influence, and thus spoke very decisively.

Jiang Guosheng pointed at Yuan Zhu, his fingers trembling with anger, and said, "You... you..." but he was unable to finish his sentence.

In fact, in his heart of hearts, Jiang Guosheng also agreed with Yuan Zhu’s words; Xiao Zheng was indeed too young, and he didn’t really believe in him either.

It is known that traditional medicine requires extensive experience, and without many decades of medical practice, one cannot achieve much.

"Heh."

At that moment, Xiao Zheng gave a faint smile.

"There’s no need for trouble. Since you don’t believe me, I’ll just go," Xiao Zheng said and then turned and walked out.

Who was he?

The Evil God.

The mighty Evil God, condescending to treat a nobody, only to be spurned—it would be laughable if word got out.

"Ah, Mr. Xiao, Mr. Xiao, don’t go,"

Jiang Guosheng was greatly startled and hurriedly ran to stop Xiao Zheng, but Xiao Zheng moved quickly. By the time he got there, Xiao Zheng had already disappeared.

"Sigh."

Jiang Guosheng angrily stomped his foot.

This was bad news to explain to Hua Haishan. He and Hua Haishan were longtime friends, yet the guest his friend had invited had been driven away by his own daughter-in-law. It was truly embarrassing to admit.

"Hmph, I guess he knew he wasn’t much good himself, so he took the opportunity to run away. Dad, you shouldn’t mind,"

Yuan Zhu said with a disdainful laugh to Jiang Guosheng, "Plus, ever since Xiao Yun fell ill, I’ve been watchful and have already invited a top American doctor who will arrive in a few days.

Now that’s what you call a real renowned doctor, coming from a major hospital abroad, a sort usually beyond our reach."

As she spoke about the foreign hospital, Yuan Zhu exuded a proud air, as if securing a foreigner was a matter of great honor.

"Hmph."

Jiang Guosheng, too angry to speak

At this moment, Hua Haishan finally finished his phone call and entered from outside. Right as he walked into the room, he noticed the strange atmosphere and then realized Xiao Zheng was missing. He couldn’t help but ask, "Old Jiang, where is Mr. Xiao?"

Before Jiang Guosheng could speak, Yuan Zhu snorted coldly, "That little con artist? I’ve exposed his true face, and he’s run off."

"What?"

Hua Haishan didn’t quite understand.

At this moment, Jiang Guosheng, head bowed, felt too ashamed to face his old friend but still managed a forced smile, "Well... Old Hua, don’t be upset, it was like this.

Yuan Zhu was being thoughtless, spouting some nonsense, and Mr. Xiao, perhaps because he’s young and impetuous, couldn’t keep his cool. Hearing those words, he got angry and just left, and we couldn’t stop him."

"What?"

Upon hearing this, Hua Haishan raised his voice an octave, astonished, "You drove him away?"

Yuan Zhu sneered, "It wasn’t us who drove him away; rather, he left in shame after being exposed."

"You... I..." Hua Haishan was nearly driven mad, "Old Jiang, Old Jiang, what am I to say about you? And you, Yuan Zhu, damn it, a little girl who hasn’t even grown up yet,

Do you even realize what you have done? Do you know whom you’ve driven away?!!!"

Hua Haishan almost yelled, furiously scolding both Jiang Guosheng and Yuan Zhu, disregarding all decorum.

Jiang Guosheng and Yuan Zhu exchanged glances, both somewhat shocked. They knew Hua Haishan well and had never seen him so out of character.
