Medic Martial Dragon King

”Old Li?!”

Chen Jiaqiang saw the burly man who entered and exclaimed in surprise, quickly getting up to greet him.

Chen Jianlin and the others also stood up in astonishment, looking at Li Wujiang with faces full of wonder.

”Haha, Jiaqiang, I heard you were entertaining friends from Dingjing, so I came to sit awhile,” Li Wujiang said with a hearty laugh.

Chen Jianlin hurriedly flattered, ”It’s our honor to have Old Li visit us!”

Li Wujiang glanced around the room, his eyes lighting up when he came to Lin Zhiyan, and with a light chuckle, he said, ”Zhi Yan is here too?”

”Good to see you, Old Li!” Lin Zhiyan replied with a light laugh and a nod.

”Hehe, nice to see you. You’re always welcome here,” Li Wujiang said with a smile and a nod.

Everyone looked at Lin Zhiyan with envy. In the room, the only people who could get Li Wujiang to initiate a greeting were Chen Jiaqiang and Lin Zhiyan.

This further strengthened Chen Jianlin’s resolve to chase and win Lin Zhiyan’s heart!

”Everyone, please sit!” Li Wujiang took the main seat where Chen Jiaqiang had been sitting and gestured for everyone to sit down.

”You folks from Dingjing really have a talent for producing remarkable people! Recently, there’s been a Mr. Jiang who is especially formidable. His calligraphy is exceptional, even Mr. Pang Boyuan from Jincheng feels inferior. He even managed to complete Old Shen’s Cultivation Technique and made an Ancient Elixir that cured Old Shen’s legs; he even received a kneel from the captain of the Dragon Tooth Special Combat Team!”

Once everyone was seated, Li Wujiang expressed his feelings. Every time he thought about the day he met Jiang Chen at the birthday banquet, his heart was filled with emotions. Especially when he remembered seeking Jiang Chen’s treatment afterward, Jiang Chen’s words made him sigh deeply.

He truly didn’t know when he would have the chance to meet Mr. Jiang again and ask him to treat his illness.

Having heard Li Wujiang’s words, Chen Jianlin also spoke admiringly, ”I’ve heard of him too. Mr. Jiang is like a divine being. Old Shen had been confined to a wheelchair for several years and was miraculously cured by Mr. Jiang’s single Elixir, and now I heard he’s quite spry!”

”Is he really that impressive? Calligraphy, medical skills, martial arts, all so strong? Is he even human?”

”Too awesome! If only we could get to know him, that would be great!”

Liang Fangfang and the others exclaimed in admiration.

Lin Zhiyan glanced at the astonished Chen Jianlin and Chen Jiaqiang, a cold smirk appearing at the corner of her mouth. You had the chance to get to know Mr. Jiang and be on good terms with him, yet not only did you not seize the opportunity, you also constantly made things difficult for him.

Chen Jianlin and the others didn’t have the qualifications to attend Old Shen’s birthday banquet, only Lin Zhiyan had gone with Lin Bingrui. In the room, aside from Li Wujiang, only Lin Zhiyan knew that the Mr. Jiang who was almost mythically spoken of in the upper circles was Jiang Chen.

”Zhi Yan, what’s the matter? You should know Mr. Jiang, right?” Noticing something off about Lin Zhiyan’s expression, Li Wujiang asked with curiosity.

Lin Zhiyan nodded, ”I know Mr. Jiang. He once saved my grandfather and even helped my father. The first time Mr. Jiang treated Old Shen was at my house.”

”You know Mr. Jiang, Zhi Yan? Is he handsome? With him being so capable, does he have a lot of style?” Liang Fangfang asked, her eyes shining as she stared at Lin Zhiyan.

Lin Zhiyan smiled slightly, ”He is very handsome and stylish, but he’s already married, so you have no chance!”

”So what if he’s married? People can get divorced, right? Besides, to be with someone so impressive, even being a concubine wouldn’t be too bad,” Liang Fangfang said matter-of-factly.

”Right!” Gong Yue nodded in agreement.

Lin Zhiyan was taken aback for a moment, and after a closer look at Gong Yue, she realized that Gong Yue admired him but seemed unaware that Jiang Chen was the Mr. Jiang.

As thoughts raced through her mind and reflecting on Liang Fangfang’s words, Lin Zhiyan’s mind began to work deftly.

”Zhi Yan, you know Mr. Jiang? When can you invite Mr. Jiang so we can meet him?” Chen Jianlin looked at Lin Zhiyan with a face full of anticipation.

”Yeah, Zhi Yan, when can you invite Mr. Jiang for a meal with us? We’ll foot the bill!” Chen Jiaqiang was also wearing a hopeful expression.

Even Li Wujiang turned his head and stared directly at Lin Zhiyan, a glint of desire flickering in his eyes. He too hoped to meet Jiang Chen again through Lin Zhiyan.

”Inviting Mr. Jiang to dinner isn’t a big problem, but I’m afraid he won’t be happy to eat with you guys!” Lin Zhiyan said meaningfully, looking at Chen Jianlin and his companion.

Chen Jianlin and his friend were taken aback and asked in confusion, ”Why not?”

The others also turned their gazes towards Lin Zhiyan, their faces filled with puzzlement.

As everyone wondered, the door to the private room opened, and Jiang Chen, having set up the barbecue grill, walked in.

”Bringing a grill and you’re still this slow, why do you always make everyone wait for you?” Already feeling a bit sullen from Lin Zhiyan’s previous comment, Chen Jianlin’s annoyance grew upon seeing Jiang Chen enter, and he spoke with a face full of resentment.

Jiang Chen glanced at Chen Jianlin but ignored him and sat down next to Gong Yue, asking softly, ”What are you guys talking about?”

Chen Jiaqiang opened his mouth with a look of disdain: ”What were we talking about? We were talking about Mr. Jiang, the Mr. Jiang from Dingjing, that godlike figure. Both with the surname Jiang, yet look at you, just a freeloader and a loser.”

”Exactly, completely useless. When going out, all you can afford is to stay in a farmhouse!” Gong Yue chimed in as well.

Lin Zhiyan’s expression changed slightly. She glanced at Li Wujiang, whose face was already showing shock, and a sly smile curled up on her lips.

Heh, talking about Mr. Jiang right in front of your boss—that’s really interesting.

As soon as Jiang Chen entered the door, Li Wujiang was already stunned.

This is Mr. Jiang? What’s he doing here?!

At that moment, his thoughts swirled with excitement.

My God, this must be a fateful day! If I ask Mr. Jiang for help again, could he treat the hidden injury within my body?

This reminded him of the frequent flare-ups of his internal injury these days and the doctor’s prognosis that if it wasn’t treated, he only had two or three years to live!

Yet for this hidden injury of his, he had sought countless doctors, none of whom could help.

And now, Mr. Jiang had reappeared before him by chance; isn’t this signaling his final opportunity?

It was just that his request last time, after the birthday banquet, was too abrupt, and Mr. Jiang had said that he lacked sincerity!

So today, he must show the utmost sincerity!

As he was thinking, Li Wujiang suddenly noticed that the rest of the people in the room were looking down on Jiang Chen. Chen Jianlin and Chen Jiaqiang, in particular, were the most scornful, and he immediately understood the meaning behind Lin Zhiyan’s words.

No wonder she said Mr. Jiang wouldn’t want to have dinner with them; now there’s a reason for it!

Li Wujiang’s face changed abruptly, and he darted a harsh glare at Chen Jiaqiang, then quickly stood up, excitedly rushing straight towards Jiang Chen.

Everyone was taken aback, not understanding why Li Wujiang had suddenly become so agitated.

Jiang Chen was also taken aback and stood up to greet Li Wujiang.

(PS: One cannot recognize the true face of Mr. Jiang because they have eyes but no vision...)
