The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 403: The Plan Fell Through

Duan Nan saw the changes in Elder Bai and the others’ expressions, and he knew his guess was correct. Last time, Wu Anguo’s heart had almost totally failed, and Ye Chenfeng brought the elder back from Ghost Gate Pass in just half an hour. This time, Elder Bai was suffering from late-stage malignant tumors, and Ye Chenfeng could actually cure it, making Duan Nan extremely excited.

It should be known that Duan Nan had once become Ye Chenfeng’s disciple. For someone like Duan Nan, who was dedicated to medical skills, Ye Chenfeng could be called a treasure of the medical world, even though Ye Chenfeng was much younger than him, but Duan Nan sincerely worshipped Ye Chenfeng as his master.

After Ye Chenfeng had treated Wu Anguo and left the military hospital last time, he also specially sorted out some advanced medical knowledge and had it delivered to Duan Nan. When Duan Nan got the medical knowledge that Ye Chenfeng had sorted out, he spent three consecutive nights without sleep, studying it with focus, which greatly improved his perspective and medical skills.

A master’s duty is to impart knowledge, solve doubts, and guide. Duan Nan hadn’t been in contact with Ye Chenfeng for long, but he had learned a lot from the medical knowledge that Ye Chenfeng had sorted out. To him, Ye Chenfeng was his respected master, which had nothing to do with age or any other factors.

Elder Bai looked at Duan Nan and said, "Director Duan, you guessed right, the one who cured my late-stage malignant tumor is Ye Chenfeng. I think Wu Anguo’s illness was also treated by Ye Chenfeng, right? Director Duan, you’re really not playing fair, knowing full well there was someone who could cure my illness, yet you kept silent?"

Duan Nan didn’t deny it and nodded, saying, "It’s not that I didn’t want to speak, but that I couldn’t. Ye Chenfeng has not made his superior medical techniques public in Capital City. Besides, Ye Chenfeng is my master, and as his disciple, how could I casually spread the word about my master’s affairs? Please forgive me, Elder Bai."

"What? Ye Chenfeng is your master?" Elder Bai, including Bai Yanxin and Bai Xueling, almost simultaneously blurted out in unison.

Instead of being annoyed by the Bais’ surprise, Duan Nan’s face showed a smug expression, "What’s so surprising about that? Considering Ye Chenfeng’s medical skills, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call him the number one Divine Doctor in the whole world. Elder Bai, you should think about it. You were suffering from late-stage malignant tumors. Who else in this world could easily cure that? How long did Ye Chenfeng take to cure your illness? Did he use any medications? Did the treatment make you feel uncomfortable?"

After Duan Nan’s series of questions, Elder Bai fell into deep thought. Ye Chenfeng had cured his illness using only silver needles, and not only was the treatment not painful, but it also made him feel unusually comfortable. A person with such superb medical skills could practically snatch lives from King Yama’s hands.

Who doesn’t fall ill during their lifetime? And those diagnosed with terminal diseases almost have no chance of survival, but as long as Ye Chenfeng is around, what terminal diseases become trivial matters. If Ye Chenfeng’s superb medical skills were publicized to the entire world, Elder Bai believed that just with his medical skills, Ye Chenfeng could stand at the summit of the world.

The more Elder Bai thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt inside! Ye Chenfeng should have been his grandson-in-law, but was picked up cheaply by that old man Wu Anguo. If anyone was to blame, it was only that his own vision had been too short-sighted. However, now that Elder Bai knew of Ye Chenfeng’s heaven-defying medical skills, he definitely had no reason to give up on such a good grandson-in-law anymore.

"Elder Bai, I hope you won’t spread news of Ye Chenfeng’s superior medical skills around Capital City," Duan Nan said as a reminder. "It would surely bring him no small amount of trouble."

"You can rest assured about that," replied Elder Bai with a nod. "I’m not a three-year-old child. I know what should be said and what shouldn’t." Inside, Elder Bai was pondering how to snatch back Ye Chenfeng as his grandson-in-law.

"Elder Bai, it’s getting late. You should also go back and rest. Stay home for a while and recuperate. That my master, Ye Chenfeng, was willing to treat you is also your good fortune," Duan Nan muttered, his admiration for his master, Ye Chenfeng, reaching to his bones.

...

On the ride back, Elder Bai turned to Bai Xueling and asked, "Xueling, what do you think of Ye Chenfeng? We were the ones who misjudged before. Ye Chenfeng is absolutely a man worthy of entrusting your life to. Xueling, why don’t you reconsider Ye Chenfeng? Now, he’s also your grandfather’s life-saving benefactor."

Bai Xueling remembered what she had promised Ye Chenfeng, and her cheeks turned a shade of bashful red as she whispered, "Grandfather, Ye Chenfeng is already engaged. What’s the use of telling me this?"

Bai Xueling didn’t say the rest of her words aloud. In her heart, she already had someone she liked. Initially, when she was kidnapped into the Taiping Mountain Range, it was that man wearing a black mask who saved her at her most desperate moment. Since then, the figure of the man in the black mask lingered in her heart, unbeknownst to her that the man she longed for day and night was none other than Ye Chenfeng.

"Xueling, aren’t you being a bit too naive? Has Ye Chenfeng married Wu Xiaofei? Besides, even if they did marry now, couldn’t they still get divorced? This time, I, your grandfather, will not care about my old face but will snatch Chenfeng back as my grandson-in-law," Elder Bai swore with certainty.

"Grandfather, I think we should just forget about this! Ye Chenfeng and I have no feelings for each other. Perhaps I’d be willing to marry Ye Chenfeng, but who’s to say he would even want me!" Bai Xueling tried her best to explain, hoping her grandfather would give up this idea.

Elder Bai was stubborn and waved his hand, saying, "Xueling, feelings can be cultivated. With a good man like Chenfeng, if you miss this chance, there won’t be another. Leave this matter to me, and don’t worry about it."

Hearing her grandfather’s high praise for Ye Chenfeng, Bai Xueling puffed her cheeks in displeasure, thinking to herself, "Is Ye Chenfeng really as good as Grandfather says? He’s nothing but a fickle heartthrob. Poor Wanting knows that Ye Chenfeng is engaged and yet she still recklessly gets involved with him - I would never be so foolish! But how should I deal with the request I promised to Ye Chenfeng?"

...

The car quickly drove into the Bai family villa. In the grand hall of the Bais, Bai Yanping and Bai Yanjun had returned. They had initially intended to visit Elder Bai, but found no one in his room. Moreover, Bai Yanxin and Bai Xueling had also vanished.

"Second brother, where do you think our eldest brother has taken Dad? Now that we two are in control of the Bais, do you think our brother would be willing to accept this?" Bai Yanjun questioned.

"Whether our eldest brother is willing or not, Dad won’t live much longer. We just need to quickly take control of the Bais. By then, our eldest brother will definitely be powerless to change anything," Bai Yanping confidently said.

"Do you two really wish for my death so eagerly? Under your control, the Bais can only go downhill," Elder Bai, who had just stepped into the entrance of the hall, heard Bai Yanping and Bai Yanjun’s conversation and exuded an air of authority.

"Dad?" Bai Yanping and Bai Yanjun were incredibly surprised to see Elder Bai at the hall entrance looking rosy-cheeked, and even walking on his own. Their minds went blank.

"Dad, you, how can you be out of bed? You should be resting in bed properly!" Bai Yanping came to his senses and said.

"I’m in good health! I don’t need you two to worry about me. Did you really think I was unaware of your intentions? If you two really could make the Bais prosper, I would not have said a word, but I know you cannot. From now on, both of you behave and don’t get any more delusional ideas. The Family Head of the second generation of the Bais has already been decided. Yanxin is much more reliable than you two," Elder Bai said, his face showing a hint of anger.

Bai Yanping and Bai Yanjun felt indignant but didn’t dare to act rashly in front of Elder Bai, who seemed to be in good health. They didn’t even dare to ask what had happened that made the once dying Elder Bai so energetic in such a short time.

However, one thing was for certain: the plan of Bai Yanping and Bai Yanjun to take control of the Bais was thoroughly ruined. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to recommend and vote on qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
