Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 72: Chapter 72: The Angry Ex-Girlfriend

Which side are you on?

Ye Haochuan’s icy gaze grew even chillier, and he snorted, ”Yu Cheng, who the hell do you think you are? Daring to act arrogant in front of me?”

”What did you just say?” Yu Cheng was furious.

Just as he was about to throw a punch, Brother Ding stepped in and said, ”Alright, alright, Young Master Yu, we’re here for business today, not to cause trouble.”

Yu Cheng then held back, huffing at Ye Haochuan, ”Ye Haochuan, consider yourself lucky today. Brother Ding pleaded for you. Don’t think you’re something special just because you have a connection with President Li of Tianwei Group. Let me tell you, compared to Brother Ding, he’s nothing, get it?”

The crowd was shocked—they were stunned that even the mighty President Li of Tianwei Group was nothing in front of this Brother Ding. Just how impressive was Brother Ding?

Pfft, no matter how impressive, could he be more impressive than our Ancient Martial Arts Sect?

Ye Haochuan let out a cold laugh, ”Who is he? How come I’ve never heard of such a person in Haishan?”

”Damn, you’re really blind. Let me tell you, Brother Ding’s identity, once revealed, will scare you to death! He’s Eldest Young Master Xiao Ding, from Haishan’s largest business group—the Xiao Group.”

Eldest Young Master Xiao of the Xiao Group?

Ye Haochuan frowned, remembering that Haishan University was controlled by the Xiao Group.

That’s right, that’s right, isn’t the beautiful chairwoman coincidentally surnamed Xiao?

However, he had no idea what the relationship was between Xiao Haimei and this Xiao Ding.

Thinking of the kindness the beautiful chairwoman had shown him, and not wanting to incur trouble without understanding their relationship, Ye Haochuan smiled and said, ”So it’s Eldest Young Master Xiao. Forgive my disrespect.”

Seeing Ye Haochuan’s respect for him, Xiao Ding nodded in satisfaction, although his demeanor was still somewhat arrogant, ”I’ve heard about you. You’re Ye Haochuan, a mere doctor at our Xiao Group’s Haishan University, right?”

Ye Haochuan frowned, somewhat displeased by the way he spoke, but nodded anyway.

Upon hearing this, the antique store Boss Liang was suddenly surprised. Damn, he’s not from Tianwei Group? Then what the hell was he scared of him for?

He immediately regretted selling that counterfeit painting for a measly price of eighty thousand yuan.

”You’re quite talented. How about this, are you interested in joining us? I have a private hospital, and the conditions are good. I guarantee you a generous package,” Xiao Ding offered with a smile.

A generous package?

Give me a break!

Right now, I’m doing fine at Haishan University, living with four charming beauties, and life couldn’t be more comfortable. What’s the point of going to a private hospital?

Moreover, leaving would mean letting down the beautiful chairwoman’s expectations, wouldn’t it?

”Sorry, Eldest Young Master Xiao, but I’m a man of modest desires who prefers a life of ease and freedom. Besides, I’m doing quite well at Haishan University, heh heh.”

That was a flat rejection. Xiao Ding’s face darkened as he snorted, ”Ungrateful.” He didn’t bother soliciting Ye Haochuan any further.

Ye Haochuan’s expression shifted, but considering the beautiful chairwoman, he still held back.

Afterward, Xiao Ding gave Yu Cheng a look that said, ”Let’s get down to business.”

Getting the signal, Yu Cheng said to the antique shop Boss Liang, ”I heard this painting is an authentic piece by Gu Kaizhi, used as the treasure of your store?”

Hearing the words ”treasure of the store,” Boss Liang felt his face burning; it was just a counterfeit, and he had absurdly claimed it to be the store’s treasure. The slap to his face was loud and painful!

”This brother must be joking, this painting is not the ’treasure of the store’ at all, it’s actually just a counterfeit, imitated by someone a hundred years ago,” Boss Liang said with a forced smile.

”Imitated?” Xiao Ding furrowed his brows deeply and turned to Yu Cheng, ”Damn it, didn’t you say this painting by Gu Kaizhi was genuine? Made me rush over for nothing, only to find out it’s a fake!”

Feeling Xiao Ding’s murderous gaze, Yu Cheng trembled in fear and quickly plastered a smile on his face, ”Brother Ding, calm down, calm down, I didn’t expect this either.”

Xiao Ding swore, ”Damn it, you make it sound so easy. I just bragged to my mom and blew it big time, saying I’d definitely bring a grand gift for Old Master Xiao’s birthday, and now it turns out to be a counterfeit!”

”Brother Ding, I was wrong,” Yu Cheng said, his face twisted with regret.

However, the guy had some cunning ideas. He quickly added, ”But, Brother Ding, the urgent matter at hand is to make the best of a bad situation. If it comes to it, just present this painting on Elder Xiao’s birthday. You can say you dare not confirm if it’s a genuine Gu Kaizhi, and request Elder Xiao to appraise it himself. Regardless of its authenticity, it would show your filial piety. Elder Xiao will only think you are being candid and filial...”

Xiao Ding’s eyes lit up, ”Great idea!”

Listening to their conversation, Ye Haochuan sneered inwardly, ”Damn it, with such schemes, you still have the nerve to claim you’re honest and filial?”

Once they made their plans, Yu Cheng immediately asked Boss Liang, ”How much for the painting?”

With a sense of resignation, Boss Liang said, ”Sorry, the painting has already been sold. The buyer is this Brother Ye. He paid eighty thousand for it.”

”What?” Yu Cheng was stunned for a moment.

”It’s true.” Boss Liang then explained the whole story and also mentioned the detail about transferring one million to Old Han.

”Damn, where did this guy get so much money? To transfer one million without a second thought?” Yu Cheng exclaimed in shock.

Xiao Ding’s brows also furrowed slightly, and he looked at Ye Haochuan with a mock smile, ”No wonder you wouldn’t ’move to another branch.’ Turns out you’re a rich tycoon!”

He Yun, on the other hand, couldn’t believe it. She knew better than anyone the state of her ex-boyfriend’s finances. Getting a thousand bucks out of him was like pulling teeth, she thought, and now, right after they had broken up, he had so much money!

But soon after, she began to feel angry. She had been his girlfriend for years, and he had kept her completely in the dark, preferring to generously give Old Han, this poor sap, a million instead of spending on her. What a jerk!

”Ye Haochuan, you scumbag, what’s the meaning of this? You’re so rich, and yet you kept me in the dark?” He Yun fumed.

What does she mean by ’kept her completely in the dark’?

Ye Haochuan was speechless and snorted, ”He Yun, what are you to me, huh? Why do I have to tell you if I have money?”

”You...” He Yun was at a loss for words.

At that moment, she suddenly noticed the police uniform-clad Chen Yushan standing very close to Ye Haochuan, looking quite intimate.

He Yun’s mind raced as she speculated—could this policewoman be Ye Haochuan’s new girlfriend?

When women are together, they inevitably compare themselves.

Seeing Chen Yushan, although dressed in a police uniform with no expensive jewelry or necklaces, she had an air of superiority that seemed much higher than He Yun’s, stirring feelings of imbalance and even jealousy in her.

For some reason, He Yun didn’t know what came over her and said with a sneer, ”Ye Haochuan, you’re quite something, huh? In just a few days, you’ve already found a new girlfriend—damn, and it’s a policewoman, no less. Your taste isn’t ordinary at all.”

Just as Ye Haochuan was about to retort with a none of your business, Chen Yushan got annoyed, ”Hey, He Yun, watch your mouth. What’s wrong with policewomen? How is that a heavy taste? You believe I won’t handcuff you right now and take you to the police station?”
