Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

The Jiang and Su families had a partnership; both Su Yingqin and Su Ze were aware of this.

Last year, during the Su Family Main House meeting, their branch was ranked third from the last and didn’t receive any resources. This year, the collaboration with the Jiang Family was of utmost importance; if they could partner with the Jiang Family, it might revive the Su Family from a dire state.

”I... I was just speaking off the cuff earlier,” Su Ze’s face changed expressions rapidly as he hastily spoke.

Su Yingqin, being the oldest here, approached with a smile, ”Young Master Jiang, Su Ze didn’t mean that, he just speaks without thinking. Please don’t be upset. Let’s put all your expenses today on my tab.”

”You think we don’t have money?” the young man said disdainfully.

At that moment, an older woman who came with him said, ”Xiao Can, let it be, Young Master Su certainly didn’t mean it. Don’t be too petty.”

”Sister Yingxue, alright then.” Jiang Can coldly glanced at Su Ze but showed a hint of respect towards the woman next to him.

Su Ze, Su Minmin, Su Yingqin, Niu Tao, and others finally breathed a sigh of relief.

”Sister Yingxue…” Jiang Ying glanced around, suddenly changed her expression, and tugged Jiang Yingxue’s clothes, ”That young man…”

Jiang Yingxue and Jiang Can both turned around, only to notice Lin Mo standing leisurely with a glass of red wine at the back of the crowd.

”Lin Mo, what are you doing here?” Jiang Yingxue’s face showed a hint of surprise, and, seeing Xia Mengdie standing beside Lin Mo, a subtle sadness flashed through the depths of her eyes.

”Mr. Jiang.” Lin Mo smiled slightly and said to Xia Mengdie, ”Meng Die, this is my high school teacher.”

”She’s quite beautiful,” Xia Mengdie nodded, teasingly glanced at Lin Mo, and then politely said, ”Mr. Jiang, my name is Xia Mengdie, I am Lin Mo’s girlfriend, you can call me Meng Die.”

”Hello.” Jiang Yingxue looked at Xia Mengdie, a hint of awe in her eyes.

Next to them, Su Yingqin, Niu Tao, Su Minmin, and Su Ze’s eyes showed a look of shock; Lin Mo was just a poor boy, how could he know people from the Jiang Family?

Lin Mo and Jiang Yingxue talked for a few moments. It turned out Jiang Yingxue was here to discuss business and was visiting the vineyard as well, unexpectedly encountering him.

Jiang Yingxue also knew Meng Die was from the Su Family. She was puzzled because with Lin Mo’s current status, a mere word from him could revive the Su Family from the dead. Did the Su Family not know his true identity?

After chatting for a while, Jiang Yingxue finally left with Jiang Can and Jiang Ying.

Su Yingqin looked at Lin Mo with astonishment, knowing from their conversation that Lin Mo and Jiang Yingxue used to have a teacher-student relationship.

However, she kept feeling like Jiang Can and Jiang Ying were extremely afraid of Lin Mo, almost reverent, which she found very strange.

”I thought you were some big shot who even the Jiang Family feared, turns out you were just Jiang Yingxue’s student,” Su Ze said coldly, he had heard that Jiang Yingxue once taught in Shu Province for a while.

Su Minmin pouted, ”The Jiang Family is very powerful, why would they be afraid of him.”

After leaving the vineyard, Xia Mengdie took Lin Mo directly to Su Yingqin’s car.

”Sister, Lin Mo knows some medical techniques; let him take a look at you,” Xia Mengdie said softly.

Niu Tao was driving with Su Yingqin sitting beside him; both let out sighs—they were both just over thirty years old this year. Especially for Su Yingqin, the older she got, the harder it was to conceive. The couple had been fretful about this for years and had even fought over it, nearly ending in divorce.

As he took a drag on his cigarette, Niu Tao said, ”Meng Die, your cousin has already seen doctors at big hospitals, tried various prescriptions, but nothing has worked. Today, Dad arranged for a specialist to come to our home, apparently an expert from the provincial city in this field. This is our last hope.”

Hearing this, Su Yingqin’s face displayed a touch of sadness. After all, getting married without having children was quite damaging to them, especially since Niu Tao was the only child in his family, and his family was quite anxious.

Hearing this, Xia Mengdie chose not to speak further—it was clear that both her cousin and her cousin’s husband didn’t believe in Lin Mo’s medical skills.

After all, Lin Mo was too young. In others’ eyes, even if he was trained by a grandmaster of traditional Chinese medicine from Taishan Beidou, he would need at least a decade or two to merely get started, as medical practice requires accumulation of time and experience unlike other skills.

Arriving at Su Yingqin’s home, it was a decent small duplex villa worth tens of millions after taking renovations into account. Of course, unlike other grand villas with swimming pools, golf courses, or helipads, this one was a more common type of small villa, especially since the Su family’s business hadn’t been doing well in recent years.

There were two other people sitting in the living room—an middle-aged man in a white lab coat with gold-rimmed glasses and slightly balding, and another in a black Tang suit.

”Dad, what are you doing here?” Su Yingqin was taken aback.

”Dad,” Niu Tao also called out.

”Grandpa,” Xia Mengdie called out.

This elderly man was Su Yongchun, the helmsman of the Su Family in Ha City and Xia Mengdie’s grandfather.

Su Yongchun nodded slightly, his gaze swept over Lin Mo, and he frowned, asking, ”Meng Die, is this your boyfriend Lin Mo?”

”Mhm,” Xia Mengdie nodded and introduced, ”Mo, this is my grandpa.”

”Hello, Grandpa,” Lin Mo called out, slightly lifting his head.

Su Yongchun merely nodded lightly. He thought Lin Mo was quite good-looking but dressed too ordinarily. He guessed that in terms of family background, capability, resourcefulness, and knowledge, Lin Mo lagged far behind the sons of big families he knew.

Su Yongchun didn’t bother further with Lin Mo and turned to Su Yingqin and Niu Tao, saying, ”This is Director Feng from the provincial hospital, who also has high achievements in the field of reproductive medicine and has published several papers at international medical forums and won medical awards. I had to push quite hard to invite Director Feng to our house to take a look.”

”Thank you, Dad,” Niu Tao said.

Behind Director Feng stood a young man and a young woman, seemingly his students. Director Qiu slightly nodded and said, ”Ms. Su, come with me to the room so I can conduct a check on you.”

Su Yingqin nodded and was about to go when Lin Mo suddenly spoke, ”Actually, it’s not necessary to go through all that trouble. Your cousin’s issue is very simple; I can cure it.”

At that moment, everyone in the living room turned their gaze to him, and silence filled the air.

Su Yongchun frowned, glaring at Lin Mo with a hint of anger in his eyes.

What was this occasion? Director Feng was a well-known doctor from the provincial hospital and an esteemed member of the Huaxia Medical Association, and it was only through his initiative that Director Feng had been invited to treat Su Yingxin at home. Now saying everything was unnecessary was simply a slap in the face to Director Feng.
