Rakish Little Immortal Doctor-Chapter 316 The Three Million Mission
```
"You're asking me for help?"
Li Qianfan was slightly stunned and looked at Xue Tian with eyes full of bewilderment. He said, "Master Xue, I am an instructor at the South Gate Four Seas Martial Pavilion, and you belong to the Xue Family of the North Gate. For you to seek my help, I feel, is somewhat inconvenient, wouldn't you agree?"
"How does that matter?"
Through these words, Xue Tian instantly understood Li Qianfan's thoughts. He smiled faintly and said, "Although the four sectors of Taoyuan County are not in pleasant terms right now, I firmly believe that in this world, there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. What do you think?"

"Then tell me, what common interests do we two share?"
Li Qianfan stared at Xue Tian with a serious face and asked.
Pointing at Xue Siqi, who stood not far away watching them, Xue Tian got straight to the point and said, "I've come to hire you for a task, which will not go through the Four Seas Martial Pavilion; it is a collaboration between just the two of us. Give it some thought?"
"Speak of the task first."
Li Qianfan, not one to dawdle, immediately said.
Seeing that the other party was so straightforward, Xue Tian didn't beat around the bush either. He immediately said, "The task concerns my daughter. Due to some special reasons, she didn't grow up by my side and has come into contact with many of the hooligans in society, picking up a lot of bad habits. Moreover, she has no desire to attend school. Your task is to change these bad habits of hers, ensuring she attends school properly. Most importantly, a week from now is my birthday, and I hope you can persuade her to attend my birthday celebration."
"Being her father, does attending your birthday require my persuasion?"
Li Qianfan always felt that the task Xue Tian had given him was somewhat odd.
"Ah, Instructor Li, you don't know the whole story," Xue Tian said with a wry smile. He continued, "Back in the day, I did some things that hurt her mother, and to this day, she hasn't forgiven me. Even inviting her out for a meal, she finds various excuses to reject me, let alone attending my birthday party. Plus, she's very headstrong; I've tried persuading her with many others, to no avail. Now, it seems I have no choice but to turn to you!"
"Since many have tried to persuade her unsuccessfully, what makes you think I will be any different?" Li Qianfan questioned in response.
"It will be different!"
Suddenly, Xue Tian's expression turned serious as he said, "Others, knowing she is my daughter, would indulge her, but you are different from them. You not only refrain from indulging her but would also punish her. To bring about change, someone like you is needed."
"Truth be told, I'm not particularly interested."
Li Qianfan glanced at Xue Siqi, who was close by, and said indifferently.
"If you're not interested in the task, what about money?"
As if he had anticipated Li Qianfan's response, Xue Tian immediately extended three fingers and said, "Here's the deal, if you can change her and get her to attend my birthday party, I'll give you three million. How about that?"
Three million!
Upon hearing this amount, Li Qianfan's expression instantly became serious, and his gaze towards Xue Tian shifted, taking on a strange quality.
Such a minor task with an opening offer of three million, worthy of the Xue Family head indeed – truly a display of wealth and grandeur.
Even though Li Qianfan was not short of money at the moment, the offer of three million still tempted him.
After all, in his opinion, such easy money was not to be turned away; only a fool would say no to money.
Seeing Li Qianfan's conflicted expression, Xue Tian knew he was swayed and pressed his advantage, immediately saying, "Instructor Li, if you agree, not only will I give you the three million, but I, Xue Tian, will also owe you a favor. As an instructor at the Martial Pavilion, you should know how valuable a favor from me can be, right?"
Li Qianfan didn't know how valuable Xue Tian's favor was, but he understood one principle: in the world of martial arts, it's better to make a friend than an enemy.
And indeed, Xue Tian's social standing in Taoyuan County was among the very top.
To be on good terms with such a man could only be advantageous.
Moreover, with the current turmoil inside the South Gate Green Dragon Gang and the East Gate already eyeing the South Gate covetously, befriending the Xue Family now could prove useful when the East Gate might attack South Gate.

"Alright, I agree!"
With that thought in mind, Li Qianfan didn't dawdle and nodded immediately.
Seeing the agreement, Xue Tian's eyes lit up, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. He said, "Great, since that's the case, to show my sincerity, I'll give you a deposit of one million first. After my daughter comes to the birthday party, I will transfer the other half to you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xue Tian took out his mobile phone from his pocket, eager to transfer money to Li Qianfan.
After briefly thinking it over, Li Qianfan gave his bank card number to Xue Tian.
A few minutes later, Li Qianfan received a message on his phone about the transfer of one million. He said, "Patriarch Xue, I have received the money."
"Then I'm counting on you from here on out!"
Xue Tian's gaze towards Li Qianfan was filled with seriousness.
Li Qianfan first nodded slightly and then, staring at Xue Tian, said, "Patriarch Xue, while we are working together, I hope you can keep it a secret. After all, the relationship between South Gate and North Gate isn't very good, and if word gets out, I'm worried some people might get the wrong idea."
"Hahahaha—"
Upon hearing this, Xue Tian patted Li Qianfan's shoulder. He said, "You can rest easy, I'll keep this matter confidential."
"Well, if there's nothing else, then I'll be on my way."
Li Qianfan said.
Xue Tian nodded gently, "Alright, go ahead with your business."
...
"Li Qianfan, stop right there!!"
As Li Qianfan was heading downstairs toward the playground, a shouting voice suddenly came from behind.
He turned back to look and saw Xue Siqi, accompanied by Feng Xiaorou and Yue Yuanyuan, running swiftly towards him. Noticing them, he stopped in his tracks to wait for the three.
"Huff, huff, huff, huff." The three ran up to Li Qianfan, hands on knees and panting heavily, seemingly very tired.
"Do you need something from me?"
Li Qianfan put on a very serious expression and asked.
"What did you and my father talk about?"
Xue Siqi looked up at Li Qianfan and asked breathlessly. Your adventure continues at novelbuddy
"Nothing much." Li Qianfan shook his head.
"What do you mean, nothing much??" Xue Siqi glared, angrily saying, "Just now, I clearly saw you two talking quite a bit. Tell me, what did you talk about exactly?"
"Do you really want to know??"
Li Qianfan shifted his gaze and then fixed his eyes on Xue Siqi's pretty face, inquiring.
Xue Siqi impatiently said, "Nonsense, if I didn't want to know, would I chase after you for so long? I'm almost dead tired."
"I can tell you, but only if the three of you fulfill my punishment by running six laps around the playground."
Li Qianfan raised an eyebrow at Xue Siqi and said.
