Chapter 220: Chapter 220 Su Chengyu is a Coward_1

Xu Bin’s behavior had already enraged the crowd, but everyone dared not express their anger. All they could do was to silently sympathize with the unfortunate restaurant owner who had run into such an annoying troublemaker.

Su Chengyu suppressed the anger in his heart, he drew a deep breath and said, "Since you love this spot so much, we will give it to you."

"Brother Yu, why should we yield to him? Such kind of person must not be indulged!" Zhou Jinping said.

"I’m not indulging him, I just don’t want to see the owner suffer for no reason. It doesn’t matter if we switch to another table."

Su Chengyu patted Zhou Jinping’s shoulder, and the restaurant owner, as if relieved of a heavy burden, hastily had his waitstaff ready another table.

Xu Bin hadn’t expected Su Chengyu to back down and voluntarily offer his place to him, this indeed fueled Xu Bin’s arrogance.

"Well, at least you know your place. Young Master Xu won’t pick a quibble with you today."

Xu Bin strutted over and sat down in Su Chengyu’s seat, followed by his three cohorts putting on airs.

"So this is the fifth-ranking martial artist? In front of our Young Master Xu, he still has to swallow his pride!"

"Young Master Xu is mighty!"

Xu Bin enjoyed being fawned over by his sycophants. Turning to Su Chengyu, he sneered, "Young Master Xu will not take advantage of you! I’ll cover your bill today. But in future, when you see me, you’d better keep your tails down. I may not always be in a good mood."

"No need, we don’t need your stinking money." Zhou Jinping scoffed.

"Damn it! You dare to defy me again?! Have I not given you face?"

Xu Bin slammed his palm on the table. Fearing Su Chengyu at first, he now felt he could handle Su Chengyu after he gave up his seat, thus revealing his arrogant nature again.

"Forget it. Why are you arguing with him? Can’t you see? He’s just an idiot."

Su Chengyu gestured to Zhou Jinping not to bicker with Xu Bin, then finally got up. The restaurant owner expressed his gratitude, "Thank you so much for today. Without you, I wouldn’t know what to do. I’ll cover your meal today, you don’t have to pay."

"If we don’t pay, what makes us different from Xu Bin’s gang? Just have the kitchen serve the food quickly," Zhou Jinping told the restaurant owner.

The drama came to a lull with Su Chengyu’s concession. He did this primarily to save Xu Nanzhi’s face and secondly, because the restaurant owner seemed pitiful and in a difficult position.

He could easily teach Xu Bin a lesson, and Xu Nanzhi wouldn’t stop him. But Su Chengyu feared Xu Bin would take it out on the owner. Ordinary people working hard to make a living should not suffer such injustices.

"Did Su Chengyu actually back down? Am I dreaming? Is this the same daredevil that bravely faced two opponents from the Cai Fist School and the Hou family in the gymnasium contest?"

Some customers had expected a thrilling spectacle, and were somewhat disappointed at seeing Su Chengyu retreat.

"He’s Hong Zhen Ting’s brother-in-law. Although Su Chengyu is an outstanding figure among the younger generation, he has no way to confront Hong Zhen Ting. It’s not surprising."

"Looks like this Su Chengyu, boasted excessively. When faced with an aristocrat like Xu, he swallows his pride. He has lost the spirit of a martial artist."

The customers had a variety of comments. Zhou Jinping, hearing the chatter, said to Su Chengyu, "Brother Yu, you don’t seem yourself today. Your reputation took a hit due to this concession."

"What reputation? It’s doesn’t matter, let’s just eat."

Su Chengyu didn’t explain any further. He couldn’t exactly tell everyone that Xu Bin was also his brother-in-law.

After the meal, the group left the restaurant. Deng Yunbo invited Su Chengyu to visit his company, and Su Chengyu didn’t decline.

At the Xu family, Xu Nanzhi’s adoptive father, Xu Daqiang, had been feeling unwell recently. Despite several medical checkups, no diagnosis was given. He called Xu Nanzhi to come home.

Xu Nanzhi had lost any deep affection towards her adoptive parents and rarely visited them. The actions of Xu Daqiang and his wife had cooled her heart towards them.

However, upon hearing that Xu Daqiang was sick, Xu Nanzhi still visited them.

"Nanzhi, your father keeps complaining about headaches and we can’t figure out what’s wrong! You must arrange a specialist from the Provincial Hospital to see your father," Xu Nanzhi’s mother, Luo Guiying, said.

"Do you think I own the Provincial Hospital? Why don’t you guys just go there yourselves!" Xu Nanzhi retorted.

"Your father has headaches and I don’t know how to drive. How can we go to the city for medical treatment? Arranging for a doctor to come from the city is not a big deal for you. Yet you make it sound so inconvenient. Did we raise you for nothing?!" Luo Guiying yelled back.

"Don’t you have a son? Have Xu Bin take you for the medical checkup. I will cover the expenses, he can put in the effort," Xu Nanzhi said coldly.

If not for the slight indebtedness of their fostering, Xu Nanzhi would not have wished to involve herself with the Xu family at all. Her adoptive parents were deceitful and greedy and Xu Bin was unambitious. In Xu Nanzhi’s view, they were all beyond redemption.

"Your brother has been busy with his business recently! He can certainly take us to the city, but you should accompany us," Xu Daqiang also chimed in.

At this moment, Xu Bin returned home. Seeing Xu Nanzhi there, he promptly greeted, "Sister, you’re back."

Xu Bin was smarter than his parents, knowing that everything the Xu family had today was thanks to Xu Nanzhi. He was most afraid of his sister and didn’t dare to be reckless in front of Xu Nanzhi.

"Dad said he wants to go to the city for a checkup. You should take him tomorrow," Xu Nanzhi instructed.

"Sister, I’m busy tomorrow. Why not arrange a driver for dad? Besides, dad’s headache is a chronic issue. He can’t be cured. Just get him some painkillers," Xu Bin sneered.

"You are quite the filial son," Xu Nanzhi retorted sarcastically.

"Nanzhi, I heard that Su Chengyu, the good-for-nothing son-in-law of the Jiang family, is proficient in medical skills. They say he’s a Divine Doctor. You should invite him to see your father," Luo Guiying suggested.

"We’re not acquainted, I can’t invite him," Xu Nanzhi replied with a straight expression.

But Xu Bin burst out laughing at the side, saying, "Mom, who did you say? Su Chengyu? What does he amount to? A Divine Doctor? He’s more like a lunatic! I ran into him today. He’s a complete coward."

Xu Bin immediately began bragging in front of his parents. Upon hearing this, Xu Nanzhi frowned.

"You ran into Su Chengyu? What happened?" Xu Nanzhi asked.

Xu Bin roughly explained what happened during lunch, smugly stating, "He was scared witless by the mention of my name, obediently giving up his seat to me. No wonder Jiang Yuyan didn’t regard him previously. No matter how skilled a person is, if they are spineless at their core, they’re not worth mentioning!"
