Chapter 19: Chapter 19: What Are Your Intentions?
"What a beautiful woman! Who is she?"
"Jiangcheng really is brimming with beauties, eh? One Song Yan is already stunning enough, and now here’s another who asures up to her. This doesn’t bode well!"
"She just now seems to have been rejecting Song Yan on behalf of Qin Chuan. Looks like their relationship is complicated!"
...
After a brief silence, the scene imdiately beca noisy.
Xiao ngyi’s appearance had dazzled everyone.
When Qin Chuan saw Xiao ngyi, he was stunned. The main reason he was considering how to reject Song Yan was largely because of Xiao ngyi.
Next to him, Luo Changsheng rubbed his eyes hard, making sure he wasn’t mistaking the person, before he asked in surprise, "Yi Yi, why have you co?"
Xiao ngyi gave Luo Changsheng a strained smile, "Grandfather, I’m sorry for causing you trouble."
Her words, like a boulder falling into the sea, stirred up a tempest.
"She’s actually the granddaughter of Luo Divine Doctor!"
"I’ve heard that Luo Divine Doctor and Song Qingshan are close friends. It looks like both of their granddaughters are involved with that young man!"
"Who exactly is this young man? Could it be that he has so heaven-defying background?"
...
The atmosphere at the scene was pushed to a climax.
The young n present all stared at Qin Chuan with faces filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred. How did this kid manage to win the favor of two great beauties?
When Song Yan saw Xiao ngyi, her face turned pale. If it were any other woman, she was confident that Qin Chuan wouldn’t reject her.
But the woman before her was Xiao ngyi, an outstanding woman who was in no way inferior to herself.
Although it was the first ti she had seen Xiao ngyi, she had learned about her through conversations she had heard from Song Qingshan and Luo Changsheng.
Xiao ngyi, the foremost beauty of the provincial city!
At fourteen, she was specially enrolled in the youth class at Yandu University.
At sixteen, she obtained a bachelor’s degree from Yandu University and began a straight path through a master’s and a doctoral program.
By the age of twenty, she had already obtained her doctorate.
Such an outstanding woman would have achieved remarkable things even coming from an ordinary family.
However, her family background in the provincial city was not ordinary. Although not as prominent as the top families of the provincial city, hers was a major clan second only to them.
And in that clan, instead of receiving the attention she deserved, she was suppressed at every turn simply because her father had married into the family.
At this mont, an untily voice suddenly sounded, "He doesn’t have a damn background; he’s just trash that was picked up by so old geezer who collects scraps."
The speaker was Wang Song, and as everyone was already curious about Qin Chuan’s identity, they all turned to look at him following this remark.
Soone said, "Even if he has no background, he’s still a Divine Doctor. Didn’t he cure Patriarch Song’s leg?"
Wang Song snorted coldly, "You believe that?"
That person replied, "It’s what Patriarch Song himself said."
Wang Song continued, "If you ask , Patriarch Song was also deceived by him, to be precise, by him and Luo Changsheng together."
At these words, the whole place was shocked!
Luo Changsheng imdiately beca furious, "Nonsense! Do you believe I’ll slap you again?"
Since Wang Song dared to co forward at this ti, he obviously didn’t care about the consequences and sneered, "Divine Doctor Luo, why the hurry? Are you afraid I’ll reveal sothing?"
"You’re full of shit!"
Luo Changsheng swore furiously.
Song Qingshan’s face darkened to the extre, whether because he believed Wang Song’s words, or because of Wang Song’s reckless speaking.
Wang Song continued, "In fact, the person who really cured Patriarch Song wasn’t Qin Chuan but Luo Changsheng!"
"Everyone can see that the relationship between Luo Changsheng’s granddaughter and Qin Chuan is no simple matter, they have actually been close for quite a while."
"Luo Changsheng could have cured Patriarch Song a long ti ago. He waited until now just to create an opportunity for his son-in-law, Qin Chuan—an opportunity to beco famous throughout Jiangcheng City!"
"And he succeeded. Patriarch Song mistakenly thought it was Qin Chuan who cured him, considered him an honored one, and even planned to betroth Miss Song to Qin Chuan."
"If I’m not mistaken, Qin Chuan will definitely refuse, because by doing so, his fa in Jiangcheng City will be solidified, and everyone will regard him as a divine doctor. With Luo Divine Doctor behind him, even if he knows nothing about dical skills, he could still manipulate Luo Divine Doctor’s influence to secure a bright future."
His words, as shocking as a thunderbolt, left the guests so astonished they beca numb.
Everyone looked at Qin Chuan with surprise - what Wang Song said seed quite plausible.
Pleased with the reaction of the crowd, Wang Song smugly added, "Not long ago, Luo Divine Doctor left Ren Kang Hospital to open his own clinic. Once his son-in-law gains recognition, his clinic will also beco famous in Jiangcheng City."
At this point, he looked towards Luo Changsheng, who was shaking with rage, and said with a mocking tone, "Luo Divine Doctor sure has a clever strategy. By doing this, he not only gained reputation for his son-in-law but also profits for his own clinic."
"You, you..."
Luo Changsheng was shaking all over with anger, pointing at Wang Song but unable to utter a word.
Had it not been for his good friend’s seventieth birthday, he would have made Wang Song bleed.
Xiao ngyi was stunned; she had not expected her appearance to lead Wang Song to so many conjectures.
She, too, went to Luo Changsheng’s place today and learned from her grandmother that the "Xiao Chuan" her grandparents wanted to set her up with was Qin Chuan.
Today was the deadline set by the Xiao Family for her to return ho, so as soon as she found out that Qin Chuan was attending Song Qingshan’s birthday banquet, she rushed over imdiately.
"I didn’t expect Luo Divine Doctor to be such a despicable and shaless person. If it weren’t for Wang Song exposing him, I would have continued to believe he was an upright and commanding divine doctor."
"To achieve his goals, he truly stops at nothing! Patriarch Song treats him as a good friend, yet he uses Patriarch Song for his own gain."
"Even if his dical skills are impressive, he does not deserve the title of Jiangcheng City’s number one divine doctor."
...
Watching the guests filled with righteous indignation, Wang Song was very satisfied. This was the effect he wanted - not only had he tainted Luo Divine Doctor’s reputation, but he had also stepped on Qin Chuan hard.
As he basked in his self-satisfaction, Qin Chuan suddenly looked towards him.
Wang Song was not the least bit afraid. This was Song Qingshan’s seventieth birthday celebration, and he didn’t believe Qin Chuan would dare to take action here.
Qin Chuan coldly asked Wang Song, "How do you know that the person who cured Elder Song wasn’t , but Luo Divine Doctor? Did you personally witness the treatnt process? Or did Elder Song personally tell you?"
Wang Song answered with a faint smile, "How could you, a layperson with no dical training, possibly cure Patriarch Song?"
Qin Chuan asked again, "So you’re saying, everything you just claid was rely your own speculation?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Song’s face betrayed a trace of panic.
Not giving Wang Song a chance to speak, Qin Chuan continued, "Miss Xiao and I have only t for the second ti today. Before this, I had no idea she was Elder Luo’s granddaughter, so how could I be Elder Luo’s son-in-law?"
"Furthermore, I hadn’t been inford beforehand about Elder Song’s intention to betroth Miss Song to , yet you claim that Elder Luo wants to use this to promote
and profit his clinic - what sense does that make?"
"Elder Song and Elder Luo have been close friends for decades. Today is Elder Song’s seventieth birthday, and yet you maliciously speculate that Elder Luo has ulterior motives, sowing discord. What exactly is your intention?"
Qin Chuan fired a series of probing questions, his piercing gaze causing Wang Song to beco imdiately flustered.
In the silent banquet hall, everyone’s eyes fell on Wang Song.
Song Qingshan’s expression had also beco thoroughly gloomy.
