The Urban Medical Martial Immortal

3: Chapter 3 Mr.

Xie 3: Chapter 3 Mr.

Xie At the door, Jiann Xinzhu pushed it open and stood there, slightly stunned.

Looking at the vibrant and spirited Lin Tian, Jiann Xinzhu felt that the young man before her seemed somehow different.

Especially those clear and profound eyes, which held an inscrutable depth that made her heart flutter in an instant.

“She must be Jiann Xinzhu, right?

Not bad looking, I suppose I can give her a 90!

She can be considered a beauty!”

Observing the bewildered woman, Lin Tian’s memories became clearer in his mind, and after sizing her up, he secretly rated her.

For him, who had seen countless stunning Immortal Venerables in his past life, such a score and comment were very high praise indeed.

Jiann Xinzhu snaped out of her daze.

A blush crept over her face as she inwardly cursed herself for being moved in such a way by the boy before her.

However, she quickly regained her composure, spoke calmly with a hint of reproach, “You’re not fully healed yet.

Why are you out of bed instead of resting properly?”

“Mr.

Jiann, thank you so much for this time.

My injuries are almost healed now, and I’m completely ready for discharge!”

Lin Tian glanced at Jiann Xinzhu and said flatly.

“Really?”

Jiann Xinzhu frowned slightly, seemingly distrustful of Lin Tian’s words:

“We’ll call Doctor Yi in a while for a check-up to make sure you’re healed before you can be discharged.

Otherwise, if there are any complications, it would be troublesome.

Also, just call me Sister Jiann.

I share some blame for your situation.

But whatever happens in the future, you need to take it easy.

Jumping off a building isn’t a wise move!”

Just as Jiann Xinzhu was preparing to summon the attending doctor to examine Lin Tian, a brash voice came from outside.

“Xinzhu, I’ve told you before—let those poor students who can’t think straight go on their own.

If they refuse, just give them some money and be done with it.

It’s such a hassle, treating him like a Crown Prince!”

As the words fell, a man in his thirties wearing gold-rimmed glasses walked into the ward.

After entering the room, he scoffed disdainfully at Lin Tian, then turned his head with a smile plastered across his face, looking ingratiatingly at Jiann Xinzhu:

“Xinzhu, are you free tonight?

There’s a nice new restaurant on the west side of the city, and I hear the food is quite good.”

“Zhao Xie, I’ve told you many times—it’s none of your business!”

Jiann Xinzhu’s pretty face had already turned icy the moment she saw the young man: “In this matter, Lin Tian certainly has his own issues, but since I recruited him into the company, I bear part of the blame.

I know what to do!”

As for his dinner invitation, Jiann Xinzhu ignored it outright.

“Xinzhu, you’re just too soft-hearted!”

The young man frowned slightly, advising her: “Even if you’re responsible, so what?

Like I’ve said before, these poor students are no different from beggars.

Just throw money at them and it fixes everything.

Whatever amount he asks for, I’ll pay it for you!

If there are any other demands, I’ll take care of it all.

Besides, this guy only got hurt a little.

One hundred thousand should be enough to send him away!”

“And who are you?”

Seeing the young man who entered the ward, treating him as if he was air and flippantly referring to ‘poor students,’ Lin Tian’s expression turned icy as he spoke indifferently.

“Who am I?

Someone from a different world than you!”

The young man looked up at Lin Tian, head slightly raised, with an arrogant face full of disdain:

“My name is Zhao Xie.

My father is one of the directors of Sea City Group, and Wanyuan Food Co., Ltd.

is owned by this Young Master, getting ready to go public next year!

But talking about this to a lowly poor like you is casting pearls before swine!

Since you’re already healed, you can just roll out of the hospital.

Don’t keep Xinzhu waiting!”

“You’re insane!”

Lin Tian looked surprised, his gaze lingering on Zhao Xie’s pallid and sallow face, a flicker of peculiarity in his eyes which then returned to normal.

A meaningful smile appeared on his lips:

“True to your name, it looks like you’ve been in this state for years, huh?

You ought to pay more attention to your rest, or you might wear yourself out before your time!”

As for the claims about family background and company that the other party was boasting about, Lin Tian simply ignored them.

Even though Lin Tian now had no cultivation, in his previous life, he was none other than the Immortal Venerable.

To him, the power and interests of the mortal world were as insignificant as a pile of useless sand and stones.

“You…”

Confronted with Lin Tian’s gaze, Zhao Xie immediately realized what was going on and became so angry that his face turned beet red as he glared furiously at Lin Tian, his eyes blazing.

Beside them, Jiann Xinzhu listened to the conversation between the two men, first stunned, then catching on and couldn’t help but look at Zhao Xie with a hint of mocking laughter and disgust in her beautiful eyes.

“What do you mean ‘you’?

Since you said earlier that you could use money to get rid of me, well then, I’ve decided I don’t want to be discharged yet.

I’d like to live in this comfortable hospital room for another year or two!”

Lin Tian didn’t wait for Zhao Xie to speak and comfortably lay back on the bed with a cold smile, saying,

“You’ve been courting Sister Jiann for quite some time now, and you still haven’t succeeded.

Such a failure!

Now I’m giving you a chance to show your sincerity.

Pay for my discharge, and you can compensate on behalf of Sister Jiann for my emotional distress.

Surely Sister Jiann will be incredibly grateful to you!”

Zhao Xie suppressed the anger in his heart, took a deep breath, and stared fiercely at Lin Tian, shouting, “You poor scum, just name your price!

I’ll give it to you and then get lost!”

Listening to Zhao Xie’s condescending tone, Lin Tian wasn’t angry, but chuckled and held up a finger: “Just this, not much.”

“One hundred thousand for emotional distress?”

Zhao Xie scoffed disdainfully, “I thought you, a poor guy, would ask for the moon.

At least you know your place.

A mere one hundred thousand?

I’ll give it to you!”

“No!

No!

No!

How can a mere one hundred thousand demonstrate Young Master Zhao’s generosity?”

Lin Tian shook his finger and said, “It’s ten million.”

“What!

Ten million!

Are you trying to rob me?”

Zhao Xie, inflamed like a cat whose tail was stepped on, jumped up in a rage and pointed at Lin Tian, shouting, “Fuck, are you trying to blackmail Zhao Xie?

Let me warn you, you’re seeking death!

In Bin City, no one has ever dared to ask Zhao Xie so boldly!”

“Can’t cough up ten million?

Then why are you acting all high and mighty!

Just a poor guy, making a fool of yourself!”

Lin Tian looked down on him and shook his head, sighing, “I can’t believe you think Sister Jiann is not worth ten million in your eyes!”

“I’m a poor guy?

I think you’re the idiot.

Who would spend ten million for a personal reason…”

As the son of a director of the Sea City Group and the president of Wanyuan Company, Zhao Xie was practically fuming, his thoughts in chaos, revealing something by accident and quickly stopping himself.

Seeing Jiann Xinzhu’s expression turn extremely ugly, Zhao Xie’s face darkened, and he retorted coldly,

“You poor scum, don’t try to gain an advantage with your words.

Sister Xinzhu knows full well my genuine affection for her!

Moreover, she has shown you kindness, and you even dare to extort her.

It’s shameless that you’re even calling her ‘Sister Jiann’!”

Having said that, Zhao Xie looked at Jiann Xinzhu, trying to persuade her earnestly, “Xinzhu, you’ve seen for yourself, this man is just provoking me.

He only has his eyes on your money, insatiably trying to swindle us.

With such character, it’s regretful that you took such good care of him before!”

At this moment, Jiann Xinzhu’s pretty face was already frosted over, her eyebrows tightly knit as she was about to speak, but Lin Tian interrupted her:

“Mr.

Xie, you need not worry about what kind of person I am.

If you truly love Sister Jiann, you would have shown your sincerity and compensated me the ten million for emotional distress by now!

“Just now it sounded like you said ten million isn’t worth it for a woman?!

It seems that in the past, you must have used plenty of sweet nothings on Sister Jiann.

This is your true face!

You seem to be a poor guy who pretends to be rich but can’t actually follow through.

Better leave right now!”

“As for the compensation for emotional distress, let Sister Jiann make the payment herself.

However, if Sister Jiann pays, I only need ten yuan from her, just enough for my ride home!”

Snort—

Zhao Xie was so enraged he almost spat blood.

If by now he still hadn’t understood that Lin Tian was deliberately mocking him, then he really had water in his brain.

And it also made him lose face in front of Jiann Xinzhu.
