Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 659: Chapter 659 Encounter with Qin Yuru_1

”What?” After hearing Ye Luo’s words, Chen Qianqian’s expression was one of shock, her body swayed slightly, and her face turned somewhat pale, clearly impacted by the news.

Now that Grandfather Chen had gone missing, all Chen Qianqian had left was Aunt Chen Huayan, and yet she had just found out that this relative had deceived her to take all her possessions and even imprisoned her for it—a huge blow for a young girl of sixteen or seventeen.

”Qianqian, if you want to take those things back, I can help you,” Ye Luo said, looking at Chen Qianqian.

Chen Qianqian shook her head, ”I don’t want to fight for anything. Those things are of no use to me; since my aunt wants them, she can have them all. But now I have nothing, and I don’t know what to do in the future?”

Chen Qianqian’s eyes revealed a touch of desolation and helplessness. Seeing this, Ye Luo couldn’t help saying,

”Your grandfather and I are good friends. He treated me well in the past, and now that he has disappeared, I have reason to look after you. You can stay here for the time being, and when I return to Zhonghai, I will take you to live there.”

”Thank you, Big Brother Ye!” Chen Qianqian looked at Ye Luo with a grateful expression on her face.

Soon, night fell, and Ye Luo received a call from Leng Ruobing. He headed to the Capital City Emperor Hotel, where Leng Pengzhan was hosting him tonight.

Arriving at the Emperor Hotel, Ye Luo saw siblings Leng Ruobing and Leng Pengzhan.

”Ye Luo, you’re here. Come on, let’s go inside. We’ll have a good drink tonight,” Leng Pengzhan said, draping an arm around Ye Luo’s shoulder as the three of them walked into the hotel.

However, as Ye Luo and his companions were waiting for the elevator, another group appeared—a group of extraordinary, lavishly dressed men, who were escorting a man and a woman.

The man in the group was dressed in a white suit, with a handsome face, a tall figure, and deep, spirited eyes, carrying an exceptional demeanor.

The woman was dressed in a long black dress that revealed her shoulders, elegant and noble, with a delicate face and a sexy figure. These two were none other than Ji Lingtian and Qin Yuru.

As this group walked over, Ye Luo’s gaze swept over them and immediately saw Qin Yuru. She likewise saw him, and for a moment as their eyes met, an unusual feeling emerged.

Ye Luo’s expression flickered with complex emotions, while Qin Yuru’s delicate body trembled imperceptibly, her complexion changing subtly before returning to normal almost immediately.

At this time, Ji Lingtian, who stood beside Qin Yuru, keenly sensed something. His eyes swept forward and fixed on Ye Luo, narrowing slightly, a hint of surprise flashing across them.

”It’s that bastard!”

A young man standing beside Ji Lingtian looked at Ye Luo with a flicker of coldness in his eyes—it was Sun Yu. Remembering the incident in Zhonghai, his expression turned somewhat frosty.

”Young Master Ji, Miss Qin!”

At that moment, Leng Pengzhan greeted the group.

”Mr. Leng, you’re also here for dinner? What a coincidence,” Ji Lingtian said with a smile, while his eyes briefly passed over Ye Luo. ”May I ask who this gentleman is?”

”Oh, Young Master Ji, this is my friend Ye Luo,” Leng Pengzhan introduced, and continued, ”I’ve heard that Young Master Ji and Miss Qin’s engagement ceremony is coming up soon. I’d like to offer my congratulations in advance.”

”Young Master Leng, you’re too kind. Don’t forget to attend Yu Ru’s and my engagement ceremony when the time comes.”

”I’ll definitely be there!”

As Ji Lingtian and Leng Pengzhan exchanged pleasantries, the elevator doors opened for Ye Luo and his group. Ye Luo glanced around and, without saying anything, walked straight in.

”Yu Ru, do you know Ye Luo?” Ji Lingtian suddenly asked Qin Yuru, who had a flicker of an unfathomable look in her eyes before responding, ”I know him. He cured my grandfather’s illness before, but we’re not very familiar.”

”Oh,” Ji Lingtian nodded, his eyes sparkling.

In the elevator, Leng Pengzhan looked at Ye Luo and said, ”Ye Luo, the expression you had when looking at Miss Qin just now seemed a bit off. There wouldn’t happen to be something going on between you two, would there?”

Leng Ruobing’s gaze also turned towards Ye Luo.

”Brother Leng, you’ve misunderstood. Miss Qin and I are just friends,” Ye Luo said calmly.

”Is that so? That’s good then. Ji Lingtian is not a simple person. You’d best not get into any conflict with him,” Leng Pengzhan said lightly.

”Brother Leng, could you tell me about this Ji Lingtian? I didn’t hear about him the last time I came to the Capital City,” Ye Luo couldn’t help but ask.

”Ji Lingtian has always kept a low profile indeed, and it seems he has only recently returned to the Ji Family. The Ji Family is also very discreet, but their power should not be underestimated.”

”The Century Group of the Ji Family has considerable financial strength, said to be second only to the Qin Group in the whole Huaxia business community. They have also formed alliances with the Zhang Group and the Bi Group, whose wealth and power are likewise formidable. Before this, they were simply not well-known.”

”But when these four major groups united, even the Qin Clan might not be their match. After the old head of the Qin passed away, and Qin Clan was in a troubled state, the four groups suddenly emerged under Ji Lingtian’s leadership and launched an attack on Qin Clan, inflicting huge losses and causing an uproar in the Huaxia commercial scene.”

”However, following the announcement of Ji Lingtian’s engagement to Qin Yuru, that business war came to a halt. But it made many realize the terror of the four big groups, especially Ji Lingtian, who became famous overnight and emerged as the new leading young master of the Capital City. I always feel that he and the entire Ji Family are shrouded in mystery and are not to be trifled with,” Leng Pengzhan recounted, and Ye Luo’s eyes shone with sharpness.

In a luxurious private room of the hotel, Leng Pengzhan began to drink with Ye Luo, and within ten minutes, the two had polished off six or seven bottles of red wine, their faces flushed with its glow.

Throughout this process, Leng Ruobing’s eyes never left Ye Luo, and her lips occasionally showed a faint smile, a stark contrast to her usual demeanor.

”I’m going to use the restroom for a moment,” Ye Luo suddenly said, and headed outside. After asking a waiter, he made his way to the hotel’s restroom.

Just as he arrived outside the restroom, Ye Luo saw a figure hurriedly rushing into the women’s restroom. He only caught a glimpse, but Ye Luo recognized her as Qin Yuru. He frowned slightly and activated the Clairvoyant Eye to scan inside.

At that moment, Qin Yuru was bent over the sink, throwing up. Upon seeing this, Ye Luo checked Qin Yuru’s condition and his face immediately turned, his pupils dilated with shock.

It wasn’t long before Qin Yuru walked out of the restroom, only to find Ye Luo standing there. Her complexion changed, and then she spoke indifferently, ”Is there something you need?”
