452: Chapter 452: Zhong Meimei’s Elder Brother 452: Chapter 452: Zhong Meimei’s Elder Brother The following day, after dropping Song Yuwei at her company, Qin Han proceeded to the medical clinic as usual.

When he arrived at the door, Qin Han instinctively glanced towards the place where Zhong Yuanliang usually stood and thought to himself, “It really feels odd not having that kid around to watch the door.

I wonder how Yuan Liang is doing in the An Long organization!”

Shaking his head, Qin Han then walked into the clinic.

“Mr.

Qin, good morning!” Xu Bingyan greeted Qin Han, who responded with a nod and a smile.

“Mr.

Qin, Ah Mu is back!”

“Oh?

His timing is quite convenient,” Qin Han replied, nodding at the news.

Xu Bingyan said with a smile, “I saw we were lacking a doorman, so I had him come back early.”

“Hmm!”

Being attentive as a woman tends to be, Xu Bingyan knew that with Zhong Yuanliang away for training, it was inconvenient for Qin Han not to have an errand boy by his side.

After all, Ah Mu had initially followed Qin Han, but it was only later discovered that he was actually here.

As they were having breakfast, someone entered from outside.

Zhang Yalin looked up and said, “We’re not open for business yet.

If you’re here to see a doctor, please line up!”

“I’m here for Mr.

Qin!” The visitor said respectfully.

Qin Han told Zhang Yalin, “Go ahead and eat.

I’ll step outside for a moment!”

With that, Qin Han stood up and came to the visitor’s side, saying, “Let’s talk outside!”

“Yes!”

Outside, the visitor said, “Sect Leader, Hong Luan has gone missing!”

The person speaking was none other than Yi Mu the Taoist!

“I suspected as much,” Qin Han said, nodding indifferently.

Yi Mu the Taoist asked in confusion, “You suspected, Sect Leader?”

“Last night, six leaders from the Chamber of Combat of the Gate of Life and Death came to where I live, and Hong Luan didn’t send me any messages.

I inferred that something must have happened to her,” Qin Han stated calmly.

Having witnessed Qin Han’s capabilities, there was no need for Hong Luan to betray him again to serve the Gate of Life and Death.

The only explanation was that Hong Luan might have been discovered by someone from the Gate of Life and Death.

“I’ve already ordered our people to investigate,” Yi Mu the Taoist said.

“Find Hong Luan at all costs!” Qin Han commanded.

“Yes!”

After a moment of thought, Qin Han, with a grave expression, said, “Have Xue Yi come to see me!”

After the incident the previous night, Qin Han felt he should have someone secretly protect Song Yuwei.

Always being exposed while the enemy remained hidden made Qin Han feel very passive.

With the Blood Guard in the shadows to protect Song Yuwei, Qin Han could freely take care of other matters.

As for the strength of the Blood Guard, Qin Han had no worries at all.

Not to mention their combat experience on the battlefield, just in terms of their martial arts cultivation, they would certainly have a place on the Heaven Ranking if they wished.

After Yi Mu the Taoist left, Qin Han went back to his routine in the clinic, treating patients as usual.

For Qin Han, treating patients was a way to calm his restless mind swiftly.

Several hours swiftly passed, and as noon approached, Qin Han received a call from Zhong Meimei.

“Doctor Qin, are you coming to the hospital today?” Zhong Meimei asked through the phone.

“You’re not going today?

Is something the matter, Meimei?” Qin Han asked with confusion.

It was rare for Zhong Meimei to call from the First Hospital to inquire about his schedule.

“I…I’d like to ask for a leave of absence, there’s a bit of an issue at home!” Zhong Meimei said.

Qin Han laughed.

So it was just a matter of taking leave—probably the young girl was afraid that he might not find anyone if he went.

He then said, “Sure, just notify the hospital properly.”

“Thank you, Dr.

Qin!” Zhong Meimei said.

After hanging up the phone, Qin Han realized that there seemed to have been a hint of urgency in Zhong Meimei’s tone, but he didn’t pay it much mind.

If there was anything she needed his help with, she would likely have said so.

Meanwhile, after ending the call, Zhong Meimei quickly hurried to the Shengdu Hotel.

At Shengdu Hotel, Zhong Meimei rushed in.

Most people coming here were either wealthy or noble, and neither Zhong Meimei nor her family would willingly come here, yet this time, they had no choice.

Zhong Meimei’s brother had found a girlfriend, and they had reached the point where marriage was being discussed.

The girl’s family chose this location for the meeting, so despite their reluctance, they had to bite the bullet and come.

When Zhong Meimei arrived, her parents and her brother were already there, while the girl’s family hadn’t arrived yet.

The family could only wait at the entrance, thankfully, they didn’t have to wait too long as the other party finally arrived fashionably late.

The group wasn’t small; an entire entourage had come, with all sorts of relatives in tow.

Zhong Meimei had met her brother’s girlfriend before, and at this moment, she couldn’t help but feel a little apologetic as she noticed the girl’s family had brought so many people.

Zhong Meimei’s brother, a simple and honest man, cheerfully greeted the relatives, and Zhong Meimei’s parents were no exception, carefully accompanying them.

The large family didn’t make things difficult and found their reserved seats.

“I didn’t expect so many people to come.

We might be short on seats.” They had thought it was just a meeting to talk things over, so they had chosen the hall, which left Zhong Meimei’s father feeling a bit apologetic.

Indeed!

Meeting the in-laws was about discussing the marriage—too many relatives coming might lead to unnecessary complications.

“No problem, the hall will do.

It’s spacious,” said the girl’s father indifferently!

This eased Zhong Meimei’s family’s minds as the other side didn’t seem to fuss.

Zhong Meimei knew her sister-in-law’s family was well-off, and their relatives were also quite affluent.

The Zhong family was essentially climbing the social ladder to be with them, which was evident from the attitude of the relatives, each radiating a sense of superiority.

However, there was no need to pay too much attention to these relatives; what mattered most were the attitudes of the sister-in-law’s parents.

Soon, the whole family settled down, but there weren’t enough chairs, so Zhong Meimei and her brother had to sit on small stools that were added temporarily.

“I’m Wenwen’s uncle, where does Xiao Zhong work now?” After some pleasantries, the girl’s uncle asked directly!

“He works at a company, for someone else,” Zhong Meimei’s brother said, scratching his head with a somewhat awkward expression!

“Uncle, Zhong Kang is just starting out,” chimed in Zhong Meimei’s sister-in-law!

“Wenwen, don’t interrupt when your uncle is speaking.

You just don’t trust your aunt.

The guy I introduced to you before, how good he was—still young and already has his own business,” Wenwen’s aunt said discontentedly!

Her words suddenly made the atmosphere stiff, and Zhong Kang couldn’t help but look towards Wenwen, who stood beside him.

“I never went to meet him,” Wenwen said in a low voice!

“Child, it’s the two kids’ matter; we as elders should just watch over them,” Wenwen’s father said with a frown!

“It’s like you’re making me out to be a troublemaker.

I just want what’s best for Wenwen, right?

Without a car or a house, and not making much money, Wenwen would suffer if she married into that,” Wenwen’s aunt said with a pout!

Then, as if still not satisfied, she continued, “Marriage is about matching doors, is it not?

Our Wenwen is used to luxury from a young age.

If she truly marries into your family and has to do everything herself, our Wenwen definitely can’t bear such hardship!”

Upon hearing this, Zhong Kang’s brows furrowed with dissatisfaction.

He had already felt uncomfortable seeing such a large group of people at the door; not because he was worried about the expense, but because during his earlier visits to Wenwen’s house, these relatives had treated Zhong Kang with nothing but coldness and disdain.
