Chapter 86: 086 The whole Jiangcheng is going to change! [2 more updates]

This kind of thing Madam Qin had done many times before, and she was extremely adept at it.

In Jiangcheng, no one would choose to cross the Qin Family, nor was there any issue they couldn’t settle with money.

Madam Qin also had a thorough understanding of Qin Xian; she knew exactly who they could provoke and who they shouldn’t.

What big trouble could there possibly be?

"Madam, it really is a serious matter!" Steward Qin was panting, "This morning around eight o’clock, the third young master was found lying in the bushes by the roadside, severely injured. He has been taken to the hospital, and he’s still in the ICU and hasn’t come out yet!"

"What?" Madam Qin abruptly stood up, "What about the bodyguards who were with him? What exactly happened?!"

"The...the bodyguards are also in a deep coma," Steward Qin stuttered, "That section of road had no lights and just happened to be in a surveillance blind spot, we don’t know who did it."

Madam Qin’s body swayed, and Sheng Yunyi hurriedly supported her.

"Auntie, there’s something I’m not sure if I should say." Sheng Yunyi hesitated for a moment, "There aren’t many people in Jiangcheng who have a grudge against Ah Xian, and not many who would dare to make a move against him, there’s only..."

A name squeezed out between Madam Qin’s teeth: "Ye, Wanlan!"

"Auntie, I’m just speculating, it might not be her doing," Sheng Yunyi said uncomfortably, "She already took your fifty million last time, everything should have been settled, why would she still..."

"Steward, find out where Ye Wanlan is for me!" Madam Qin’s rage clouded her judgment, "I’m going to the hospital to see Ah Xian first, and later we will settle the score with this ungrateful Ye Wanlan!"

Steward Qin hastily left to carry out the order.

Sheng Yunyi thought to herself that this was a great opportunity to win some favor.

She smiled softly, "Auntie, I’ll go with you, I’m afraid something might happen to you too."

"It’s good that you’re here, Yunyi." Madam Qin’s expression softened a bit, "Let’s go."

**

Jiangcheng First Hospital.

Ye Wanlan was still sitting outside the operating room on a long bench, with Yan Tingfeng maintaining the posture that allowed her to lean on him, unmoving.

The hospital director tried several times to invite them both to the VIP rest lounge but was turned down.

After a while, Ye Wanlan stirred.

Yan Tingfeng, who had been resting with his eyes closed, also instantly opened his eyes.

"Hmm?" Ye Wanlan opened her eyes, her pupils clear and bright, "How long did I sleep?"

"Two hours, it’s now half past eleven," Yan Tingfeng watched her movements, constantly remembering Shen Que’s words, his eyes narrowing slightly, "Miss Ye’s neck..."

Ye Wanlan pinched the back of her neck and indeed found it somewhat sore.

She very naturally produced a silver needle and gave herself an acupuncture treatment: "This little thing is not a big deal."

She always paid great attention to body conditioning. With a healthy body, she could do much more.

And not end up with lifetime regrets like in her past life.

But in the four years since the Transcendent Woman had taken over her body, in pursuit of a model’s extremely thin figure, she had eaten only a vegetarian diet, leading to a significant loss of muscle mass.

On top of being tormented by Qin Xian and others, her body had indeed deteriorated from before.

Fortunately, it wasn’t too late; she could still recover.

"It’s noon, I’ve made a reservation at the restaurant." Yan Tingfeng continued, "You’ve been overworked all day, you need to eat well and then go back to sleep after the meal."

Ye Wanlan didn’t refuse, nodding her head and walking a few steps before suddenly stopping, "Have you been sitting here for two hours?"

"You were too tired." Yan Tingfeng didn’t answer her question, but simply blinked gently, "I wanted to take you to the resting room, but I was afraid it might disturb your sleep."

Ye Wanlan frowned, "Your shoulders don’t ache or feel numb?"

Yan Tingfeng’s smile was tender, "Don’t worry about me, I don’t feel a thing."

In the past, to avenge a grievance in Jianghu, he had rigorously trained his swordsmanship from a young age, swinging his sword ten thousand times every day. Indeed, this was nothing to him.

Ye Wanlan didn’t speak, but instead reached out and pinched his shoulder, finding indeed no trace of stiffness, "Your body is truly strange."

Despite having a cold constitution, and needing a scarf and a hand furnace even in summer,

Yan Tingfeng’s physique was astonishingly strong.

How could such a person live?

Ye Wanlan pondered.

"So I’ll have to rely on Miss Ye to help me take good care of it," Yan Tingfeng smiled slightly, "Let’s go have that meal first."

Fifty minutes later, in the restaurant’s private room.

Ye Wanlan finished eating ten bowls of rice and four plates of dishes with an ease that almost made Rong Yu’s jaw drop.

What kind of bottomless pit of a stomach was this?

Rong Yu accidentally voiced his inner thoughts aloud.

"Excessive exertion requires a large intake of food to replenish energy," Ye Wanlan nonchalantly wiped her mouth with a napkin, "Any questions?"

"Exactly!" Professor Yuwen was indignant, "What’s the matter, do you think less of people who eat a lot? Let me tell you, it’s because we eat a lot that we’re smart!"

Rong Yu: "..."

He felt he was being insinuated.

Was this comment implying that he was stupid?

Yan Tingfeng’s expression was indifferent as he first gave Rong Yu a warning glance, and then turned his head to ask, "Need anything else?"

"This meal is enough, we’ll eat again in the evening, we need to maintain the good habit of eating on time," Ye Wanlan said, "You do your thing, I’ll head back to the hospital for a bit."

"Alright," Yan Tingfeng did not follow this time.

Because earlier that morning, Bureau 723 had just faced a major occurrence that required his decision.

It was a matter of great importance related to Shenzhou.

Professor Yuwen immediately stood up: "I’ll go with you."

"Professor, I’m going to see a patient, what are you going to do?" Ye Wanlan sighed, "What if the hospital’s germs infect you and your brain function gets damaged?"

Professor Yuwen was still somewhat reluctant: "Alright then, I won’t go, come back early so we can continue to plan dinner!"

After shaking off Professor Yuwen, Ye Wanlan had just arrived at Jiangcheng First Hospital when she was captured by Shen Que, who had been lying in wait for a while.

She narrowed her eyes: "You are—"

Shen Que’s face paled with shock: "Just a few hours ago I was your assistant!"

How could she forget him so quickly?

"It’s you, I remember now," Ye Wanlan recalled for a moment, "I appreciate your help, is there something you need?"

"You’re too polite, Miss Ye, it’s not that I helped you, you clearly helped me! I just wanted to ask you about the Taiyi Divine Needle..." before Shen Que could finish, he was interrupted by a stern shout.

"Madam, she’s here, she actually dared to come to First Hospital, it must’ve been her who harmed the young master!"

Shen Que was startled: "What?"

Ye Wanlan sidestepped him and moved forward: "I’m busy right now, you go play over there, we can talk later about whatever it is."

Shen Que was about to say he wasn’t a child anymore, but obediently replied, "Alright then, I’ll wait for you in the dean’s office."

Steward Qin hurried along with Madam Qin from the other end of the corridor to intercept Ye Wanlan.

"Ye Wanlan, you’ve gone too far," Madam Qin’s voice was chilly, "Wasn’t the fifty million last time enough? Now you’ve sent my son to the hospital again, do you truly wish to die?"

Ye Wanlan’s gaze was serene: "Madam Qin questions me like this, it appears you have ample evidence?"

Madam Qin was livid: "You—!"

Ever since Ye Wanlan effortlessly took away fifty million in liquid funds, Madam Qin had been constantly vigilant against her.

She knew that Ye Wanlan had Fang Qingya, who had made false police reports, locked up in a detention center.

Despite her young age, her methods were extremely ruthless; she could not be spared!

Madam Qin wanted to get rid of Ye Wanlan, but unfortunately, she had not found the right opportunity yet.

And she knew that if she made a move against Ye Wanlan without being absolutely certain, she could be defeated by a minor slip, turned from a failure into victory by her opponent.

She had never encountered someone like Ye Wanlan who was so proficient in psychological warfare and tactics, it was unbelievable!

Even among the major families they came from, no one could reach such a level.

"I indeed have no evidence, but, Miss Ye, you better understand something," Madam Qin laughed coldly, "If you’ve done nothing wrong, you’ve got nothing to fear from a knocking ghost. You better make sure this wasn’t your doing!"

"I also have a phrase for Madam Qin," Ye Wanlan smiled faintly, "Man proposes, God disposes, as gods are watching from above, evildoers will meet their karma."

Madam Qin trembled with rage: "Just you wait, I will find the evidence!"

"Good, I’ll be waiting," Ye Wanlan did not say much else and left straight away.

Madam Qin could only watch helplessly, her frustration building: "Check thoroughly where she was last night for me, I don’t believe she can erase all traces."

She could wait no longer; she had to use every means at her disposal to completely eliminate the threat of Ye Wanlan.

Otherwise, if Ye Wanlan grew up one day, the whole of Jiangcheng would face upheaval!

"Madam," Steward Qin spoke carefully once more, "There’s good news, Mr. Shen is currently at First Hospital, perhaps he could help the young master recover faster."

"Mr. Shen? Which one?"

"Mr. Shen Que."

Madam Qin was astounded: "He’s actually come to Jiangcheng?"

Shen Que was known as the youngest national medical saint, many sought after him in vain. Who had the capability to invite him to Jiangcheng?

"As soon as the young master wakes up, he will surely be able to directly accuse Ye Wanlan," Steward Qin added.

"You’re right," Madam Qin calmed down a bit, "Let’s go to the dean’s office now and ask Mr. Shen to treat Ah Xian."

Ye Wanlan, you will pay a heavy price.
