Medic Martial Dragon King

”Heh, you’re too kind.”

Jiang Chen saw the scene before him and laughed.

He had no idea that Cheng Zhiqiang and the others would come, nor did he expect them to arrive so coincidentally.

Gong Lin pursed her lips and also smiled. Looking at these Jinhai moguls who had come especially for Jiang Chen, her heart was filled with pride and tenderness.

The husband she had chosen was truly amazing!

At the same time, she lifted her gaze to sweep over the Gong Family’s younger generation, her chest inadvertently puffed up.

Hmph, let you all see my husband’s prestige, far stronger than you parasites leeching off the family fortune!

”Not at all, this is what we should do. Besides, Mr. Jiang, you and Miss Gong got married in such a hurry that there wasn’t even a wedding banquet, making us feel that we hadn’t presented our gifts properly in Jinhai, so we agreed to come over together,” Cheng Zhiqiang, as the leading figure, was the first to reply with a smile.

”Right, Mr. Jiang, it wasn’t right of you to do this. Such a big event as a wedding should at least give us the chance to give you a present,” Lin Youpeng said, pretending to be dissatisfied while looking at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen smiled slightly, ”Alright, blame me for this, and none of you should go back later. I’ll have a drink with everyone here as an apology.”

”No, no, no, Mr. Jiang, you are taking this too seriously, we were just joking,” Lin Youpeng hurriedly waved his hands.

Jiang Chen shook his head, ”No, it really is my fault. In Jinhai, I only have friends like you all, and I should have announced my marriage.”

”Haha, then we’ll thank Mr. Jiang very much,” replied Cheng Zhiqiang and the others, all bowing together, feeling as though they had been elevated.

Seeing this, the younger members of the Gong Family were completely dumbfounded.

Those moguls were not only here to give Jiang Chen their best wishes but also, the status they presented themselves with was so low, it was almost unbelievable.

They looked at Jiang Chen with a mix of suspicion and awe. They originally thought it was because of the Sihai Group or Old Lady Luo’s face, but at this glance, Jiang Chen’s face seemed much greater than that of the Sihai Group or Old Lady Luo!

”Mr. Jiang, we’ll take our leave now, not to disturb Mr. Jiang and Miss Gong from bonding with family. Please inform us when the hotel is booked,” said Cheng Zhiqiang with a light laugh, bidding Jiang Chen and Gong Lin farewell.

”Exactly, exactly, Mr. Jiang, we can have a good drink when the time comes!” Lin Youpeng chimed in.

Zhang Long and the others also opened their mouths to say their goodbyes to Jiang Chen.

”Thank you all for your thoughtfulness, I’ll be right there, let’s have a good gathering,” said Jiang Chen with a light chuckle.

Cheng Zhiqiang and the others turned and also bade Old Lady Luo farewell before stepping out of the front hall.

”Is this kid that incredible?”

”What did this guy do in Jinhai to make this bunch of big shots bow and scrape like this?”

”This... is so impressive!”

The younger generation of the Gong Family only came to their senses after the moguls had left, staring dumbfounded at Jiang Chen.

And Gong Zijun’s face had gone completely dark. Jiang Chen had just pointed out that his ginseng was fake, which had made him lose all face. Fortunately, Old Lady Luo forcefully smoothed things over, or else he would have been unable to step down. He had already harbored a grudge against Jiang Chen in his heart.

So, he desperately suppressed Jiang Chen. He thought he was so much better than Jiang Chen, believing he could completely crush him.

But now, he felt as if he were being smacked in the face repeatedly. Compared to Jiang Chen, he felt less worthy than dog shit.

He was gnashing his teeth with rage but couldn’t say a word.

He couldn’t help but turn to look at Old Lady Luo.

At this moment, Old Lady Luo was also wearing a look of shock and bewilderment, staring at Jiang Chen; the scene before her was inexplicably staggering.

But she was seasoned with age, and seeing the younger generation of the Gong Family being humiliated, her face darkened, and she shouted, ”There’s no need for everyone to be so surprised. Are these people from Jinhai here only because of the Gong Family’s face? The gifts are for Gong Lin’s marriage to him, but since he is a man, they give him face, and that’s why they speak like this. Otherwise, how could this bastard have such great face?”

With that said, whether the younger members of the Gong Family accepted it or not, they all seemed to have an epiphany, and their gazes at Jiang Chen were filled with contempt once again.

They genuinely disliked being suppressed on their own turf by an outsider, especially since the outsider was a bastard, a son-in-law who had married into the family!

Gong Zijun’s face brightened, and he looked up proudly at Jiang Chen, ”Jiang Chen, see, you’re basking in the glory of our Gong Family again. Without our Gong Family, would you have the chance to speak to so many big shots?”

Gong Lin’s face flushed with anger, wanting to argue, but Jiang Chen held her back.

And Jiang Chen, holding Gong Lin’s hand, shook his head silently at Gong Zijun and the others, thinking to himself with amusement:

These frogs at the bottom of the well, say whatever you want.

Old Lady Luo herself knew her words were a stretch; glancing again at the gifts left by Cheng Zhiqiang and others, she spoke gravely, ”Enough, let’s leave it at that for now. I’ll take these things for the time being, and Gong Lin can ask me for them when she needs them.”

Gong Lin frowned, knowing these gifts were intended for Jiang Chen but had been confiscated by Old Lady Luo, which was totally unreasonable!

Yet Jiang Chen pulled her back again and shook his head gently at her.

He never liked to argue over such things anyway; he was used to it. But he still had some doubts: Old Lady Luo’s targeting of him seemed a bit too deliberate, and it probably wasn’t just because he was a son-in-law who had married into the family!

Jiang Chen’s guess was accurate. Old Lady Luo’s targeting of him was indeed not just because he was a son-in-law who had married into the family.

More so, it was because of Jiang Chen’s sensitive identity as a member of the Jiang Family.

When Gong Jianqiang had invited Jiang Chen to be the president of Sihai Company in Jinhai, she had investigated him. Once she had thoroughly figured him out, she was very dissatisfied with Gong Jianqiang’s decision.

She considered Jiang Chen as nothing more than a bastard. His father was already dead, his mother was just an ordinary person, and his grandfather had retired from the forefront, effectively in retirement, though still wielding some influence. But the main power in the Jiang Family now belonged to a collateral branch, making it better to stay out of their way at that time.

However, Gong Jianqiang had already gotten involved, and he had chosen Jiang Chen. Old Lady Luo thought this could potentially backfire and bring trouble to the Gong Family, so she decided to do everything in her power to drive Jiang Chen away, aligning with the Jiang Family’s collateral branch in an attempt to create disorder and rectify the situation!

Throughout a gathering, Old Lady Luo did not offer Jiang Chen a kind face.

Afterwards, Gong Lin was quite upset, but Jiang Chen didn’t care and couldn’t be bothered with it. All he was focused on now was waking up Ye Jingyi.

After the gathering ended, Jiang Chen went with Gong Lin to dine with those big shots from Jinhai, enjoying good food and drinks, and then left the hotel alone to visit the special care ward at Dingjing’s First Hospital where Ye Jingyi was.

He visited almost every day, giving Ye Jingyi acupuncture and massages, to help her recover gradually.

Today, after finishing acupuncture and massage, Jiang Chen didn’t leave immediately. Instead, he sat beside the bed, took Ye Jingyi’s hand, and looked at her sleeping face with tenderness.

He began to speak.

Today, he wanted to tell Ye Jingyi many things, words he wanted to say but didn’t dare to!
