Heavenly Dragon Doctor Son-in-Law-Chapter 22 - 23 What’s So Great About a Rented Car?
"Manager Wu, could this be the Young Master of the Zhao Family?" Tang Yuxiang’s face was all smiles as he bowed and scraped.
But in the next second, he froze on the spot.
He saw a graceful figure step out of the passenger seat, and it was none other than Tang Xuewu. Her perfect figure, stunningly beautiful face, and pair of enchanting peach-blossom eyes were simply breathtaking. Set against the backdrop of a fifty-million-dollar supercar, the two complemented each other perfectly. Tang Xuewu was so beautiful it was surreal.
Tang Yuxiang was petrified, and Tang Chuchu’s eyes widened in shock. How could Tang Xuewu be stepping out of a fifty-million-dollar Aston Martin?
Could Tang Xuewu have hooked up with a young master from the Zhao Family, someone even richer than Wang Ming? Is the owner of this luxury car the young master of the Zhao Family?
The moment the thought crossed her mind, Tang Chuchu rushed toward the driver’s seat. But when a pair of crutches hit the ground, Qin Long’s figure appeared before them.
"That’s—!" Tang Yuxiang was so shocked his jaw nearly dropped. It was none other than Qin Long! That cripple was actually driving a fifty-million-dollar supercar to take Tang Xuewu to work!
This has to be a dream!
"Him! Him!" Tang Chuchu stammered, pointing her finger, her expression frozen in disbelief.
"Xuewu, go on in," Qin Long said, glancing disdainfully at the two before turning to Tang Xuewu with a gentle tone. "Call me when you get off work."
"Okay. Drive safely," Tang Xuewu replied, walking toward the entrance.
"Wait!" Tang Chuchu stepped forward, blocking Tang Xuewu’s path. "What’s with this car?"
Tang Xuewu’s brow furrowed in annoyance. "It was a gift. Do we need to report that to you?" Her repeated concessions to them didn’t mean she had no temper.
"You’ve got to be kidding me! Tang Xuewu, you’re such a poser," Tang Chuchu scoffed. "A custom Aston Martin One-77 costs at least fifty million. Who are you kidding, saying it was a gift? If someone really gave it to you, I, Tang Chuchu, would get on my knees and kowtow to you right now!" With a look of utter disbelief, she added, "You rented it just to show off, didn’t you?"
"It’s just a little Aston Martin," Qin Long’s gaze turned icy as he glared at Tang Chuchu. "I can buy Xuewu anything she wants, even the Deep Blue King series, the emperor of the world’s gemstones."
"Oh, listen to the fool talk big," Tang Yuxiang sneered, his anger flaring. "Buying Deep Blue King gems? If you’re so amazing, why don’t you stand up and show us?" He then added viciously, "Kid, you probably can’t even perform as a man."
Hearing this, Tang Xuewu flushed with shame and fury while Tang Chuchu continued her relentless mockery. The onlookers sighed in resignation. Even if Qin Long could afford an Aston Martin, he was still an impotent man.
Even Qin Long had nothing to say. At this moment, his body was indeed disabled; he was not a complete man.
"Kid, weren’t you acting all high and mighty just now?" Tang Chuchu deliberately stepped closer to taunt him. "Weren’t you going to buy the Deep Blue King series? You can’t even count as a normal man, yet you still put on such airs!"
Qin Long stared at her, his eyes cold. "You two had better pray I don’t recover. The moment I do will be the moment of my revenge. When that time comes, you will lose everything."
His voice was like ice. An unstoppable pressure emanated from him, and an oppressive, murderous aura surged forth.
THUMP!
The instant her eyes met Qin Long’s, Tang Chuchu’s face went pale with fright, and she collapsed to the ground. In that single second, she felt she had witnessed the most terrifying gaze in the world.
"Keep pretending, Qin Long! You’re finished!" Tang Yuxiang quickly shielded his sister, snarling fiercely. "Once I sign this major project with the Yaolong Group, I’ll be the general manager of the Tang Family. Then, I’ll personally crush you."
"Xuewu, I’ll pick you up this afternoon." Qin Long completely ignored him, offering Tang Xuewu a gentle smile instead.
She glanced back with a smile and walked into the elevator.
Qin Long then floored the accelerator and sped away, leaving them in his dust.
"That cripple! Can he really afford an Aston Martin?" Tang Yuxiang watched the fading white blur of the car, his heart overflowing with jealousy.
"Impossible! He must have rented it!" Tang Chuchu fumed. It was the first time Tang Xuewu had ever shown her such contempt. "Let’s just wait and see. In a few days, someone will come to take it back."
"That idiot has been insufferably arrogant ever since he regained his senses," she continued. "Once I sign this Yaolong Group contract, I’m definitely going to teach him a lesson!"
"Exactly," Tang Yuxiang added. "Then we’ll ask Grandpa to kick him out of the Tang Family and leave him to rot on the streets."
"And if Tang Xuewu tries to stop us," Chuchu finished, "we’ll just have her fired. Let’s see what she does then!"
The two of them stood to the side, scheming while they waited for Manager Wu to arrive. They only needed to secure the contract before going straight to the old man.
Qin Long had intended to visit the traditional medicine market, but he received a call from Zhao Ruoying. It was a good opportunity to give Miss Zhao one more acupuncture treatment and cure her completely. He turned on his navigation and headed for the Zhao Family’s villa.
Upon his arrival, he saw the entire Zhao family waiting respectfully at the door.
"Master Qin, you’ve arrived," Zhao Ruoying said, bowing her head.
"Mm," Qin Long acknowledged with a faint smile.
Zhao Ruoying and Zhao Hai personally rushed over to help him into his wheelchair.
"How has Miss Zhao been sleeping lately?" Qin Long asked.
Zhao Ruoying described the situation in detail, clearly overjoyed.
The Zhao Family’s main hall was filled with people—all relatives and friends of the family. Having heard about the legendary Medical Immortal, they all wanted to see him with their own eyes.
Qin Long approached Zhao Xiaotong, took her pulse, and immediately began the treatment. Under his control, the Golden Needles danced like swimming dragons in a stunning display of skill. Such medical prowess was truly astonishing; his familiarity with the technique was far beyond what any ordinary person could achieve. Though Qin Long was a cripple, he radiated the aura of a Medical Immortal. It seemed as though, in his eyes, there was no such thing as an incurable illness.
As soon as Qin Long put away the needles, Zhao Xiaotong exclaimed in amazement, "My chest doesn’t feel tight at all anymore! Mother, I feel like my body is full of strength!"
"Master Qin, I can never repay you for saving my daughter’s life," Zhao Ruoying said with utmost sincerity, holding her daughter’s hand. "From this day forward, our Zhao Family wishes to make you our most honored guest. Whatever you ask of us, we will not refuse."
"You’re being too kind, Mrs. Zhao," Qin Long replied, wiping a bead of sweat from his forehead and taking a sip of tea.
"Master Qin, your acupuncture skills have grown even more profound," Zhao Hai chimed in, flattering him with a beaming smile.
"It’s nothing," Qin Long waved it off. "I haven’t used these skills in three years. Now that my meridians have recovered somewhat, I’m naturally more proficient. Miss Zhao’s health is completely restored."
At these words, the Zhao family members erupted in cheers. "That’s wonderful, that’s wonderful!"
"Master Qin, the Zhao Family is about to send a large contract to the Tang Family," Zhao Ruoying said cautiously, not daring to show the slightest neglect. "Our Yaolong Group’s Manager Wu will likely sign the cooperation agreement today. Are you satisfied with this arrangement?"
She had long since determined that someone with his medical skills had to be the disciple of a reclusive master or the young master of a hidden, powerful clan. She was determined to latch onto this powerful backer. Moreover, he possessed heaven-defying medical skills; if he wasn’t a Medical Immortal himself, he was deeply connected to one. For this reason, the Zhao Family regarded Qin Long as a deity.
"Has the contract been signed yet?"
