Medical and Martial God

Chapter 287: Chapter 287: How Indecent, How Indecent!

Shen Songshan and Shen Qilin’s faces were ashen.

”How does Ye Xiu know so many international financial magnates?” Shen Songshan said, barely able to believe it. ”Any one of these tycoons could send the global stock market into a freefall with a mere stomp of their foot. How could they possibly cooperate with someone as insignificant as Ye Xiu?”

Incredible! It simply made no sense! Utterly unbelievable!

”Ten years ago, you forced the Divine Doctor abroad,” Lv Zhiyuan said, his face full of admiration. Even though Ye Xiu didn’t know him and wasn’t present, he continued fawningly, ”As the saying goes, ’A wolf travels a thousand miles to eat meat; a dog travels a thousand miles to eat filth.’ A person as brilliant as the Divine Doctor will shine no matter where he goes. The richer people are, the more they fear sickness and death. His medical skills are unparalleled. Over the past decade abroad, he must have treated countless tycoons. Is it really so hard to believe he’s accumulated a network of heavyweight contacts?”

Shen Songshan and Shen Qilin fell silent. At that moment, they were once again consumed by regret for having framed Ye Xiu ten years ago. They had never imagined that this person, whom they saw as an insignificant bug they could crush at will, would return with such immense power after a decade in exile.

It was over. The Shen Corporation was doomed.

「...」

At that moment, Ye Xiu was strolling through Longhu Tianjie when Bao Longtu suddenly called. ”Divine Doctor Ye, my phone and Bao Yadong’s are blowing up! The Bao Family’s business partners from all over the country, my friends, his friends, friends of friends... countless people, some we know and some we don’t, all want to visit one of us. A lot of people from the Qingfeng Road business community are already at my house...”

”Arrange a gathering for tonight so we can meet them all at once,” Ye Xiu interrupted. ”But only invite the people from the Qi Yun Dao business community.”

”Alright,” Bao Longtu replied. ”I’ll set up a business cocktail party.”

After hanging up, Ye Xiu suddenly turned to look at a beautiful woman ten meters away. She had long, wavy golden hair, and wore a tight black t-shirt that showed off her toned midriff and slim waist, paired with white, ripped denim shorts and black flip-flops. She was as beautiful as a doll!

The woman seemed not to have noticed him, continuing her leisurely stroll forward.

”Why are you following me?” Ye Xiu asked, stepping in front of her.

The woman looked startled for a moment before a brilliant smile spread across her face. ”Handsome, are you talking to me?” Her smile was like a sunflower blooming in the midday sun, absolutely dazzling.

Ye Xiu glanced at his watch. ”At the forty-five-minute, thirty-six-second mark, I was walking along the road when you passed by in a taxi. Then, at the thirty-seven-minute, nineteen-second-mark, I saw you again as I was coming out of a convenience store after buying cigarettes. At that time, you had short black hair and were wearing a baseball cap, a mask, a white t-shirt, long jeans, and white sneakers. Afterward, I took a cab, and you tailed me all the way to Longhu Tianjie, where you changed into your current outfit.”

As he finished, Ye Xiu’s gaze sharpened, fixing on the woman as he asked in a cold voice, ”Tell me, why are you following me? Who sent you?”

The woman’s large, artfully made-up eyes widened in disbelief. ”How did you do that? My tracking skills are top-notch, and I kept changing my appearance. I can’t believe you saw through it all.”

”Cut the crap,” Ye Xiu said coldly, annoyed that this nuisance had appeared just as he was starting to deal with the Shen Family. ”Since you were following me, you should know who I am. Answer me honestly, or don’t blame me for what happens next.”

”There are so many people here,” the woman taunted with a confident smile. ”Do you really dare to lay a hand on me?”

Ye Xiu glanced around. The street was crowded. She was right; forcing an interrogation here would cause chaos and panic. ”Fine. Then let’s find somewhere else to talk,” he said.

He then threw an arm around the woman, intending to pull her somewhere more secluded, like a small grove.

However, she suddenly threw her arms around him and started screaming, ”Help! Assault! He’s assaulting me!”

She struggled in his arms as she yelled, and once she had drawn the gazes of passersby, she shoved Ye Xiu away with all her might and collapsed to the ground. Her porcelain-doll face, now pale as a sheet, was a mask of panic and distress, with tears welling up in her wide eyes.

What the hell... Ye Xiu was dumbfounded. Is this woman an actress? Her skills are incredible!

Bystanders began to stop one by one, forming a crowd around them.

”Miss, what’s wrong? Who’s harassing you?” a chivalrous young man asked, helping the woman to her feet.

The woman burst into tears, pointing a trembling finger at Ye Xiu. ”It was him! He asked for my number, and when I refused, he... he got physical with me,” she wailed.

Her words sent the crowd into an uproar. The onlookers immediately turned on Ye Xiu, hurling insults at him.

”The absolute nerve! Doing something like this in public! Who knows what horrifying things he’s done in private?”

”If you like a girl, pursue her properly! When she refused to give you her number, you resorted to force? That’s assault! You should be facing criminal charges!”

”He’s so handsome, he seemed like a good person. I can’t believe he’s so shameless.”

”You can’t judge a book by its cover. The worst people often hide behind a kind face.”

Seeing her plan succeed and watching Ye Xiu become the target of the crowd’s outrage, the woman was secretly overjoyed, which only made her cry harder.

The chivalrous young man grabbed Ye Xiu by the collar, his face flushed with anger. ”You scum! I’ll beat you to death!”

With that, he swung a punch at Ye Xiu’s face.

”Go ahead. Let it land and see what happens,” Ye Xiu said coldly.

The young man’s fist froze in mid-air. He tried to muster his courage several times, but he couldn’t bring himself to follow through.

Ye Xiu laughed. He had guessed correctly. The young man and the woman were working together. They knew who he was, which was why he didn’t dare to actually hit him.

”I’m not falling for your trick,” the young man said, extremely embarrassed. He quickly came up with a new tactic and sneered, ”Assault is illegal. You’re just trying to bait me into hitting you so I’m the one who breaks the law. I’m not going to get arrested over scum like you.”

The onlookers started shouting again.

”Why bother hitting him and dirtying your hands? Just call the authorities! Let the Patrol Officers take him away.”

”Right, call them!”

”I’ll do it!” someone said, taking out their phone and dialing the emergency number.

The young man then goaded the crowd, ”Everyone, take his picture! Post it online! Let the whole world see what this scum looks like!”

”Yeah, take his picture!”

”Let the netizens dox him!”

”Post his photo everywhere online so everyone can see it. We have to make sure no other girls become his victims.”

The crowd took out their phones. But just as they were about to take pictures, they saw Ye Xiu calmly put on a mask and flash a peace sign.

PFFT!

The onlookers nearly coughed up blood. This scoundrel was shameless, utterly depraved! He harassed a strange woman on the street and then had the gall to pose for pictures.

Scum!

A beast!

No, worse than a beast
