The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 413: This is Your Great-Great-Grandmaster (1)

The evening breeze was gentle, and the night sky was adorned with a bright, lustrous moon. Its silvery light cascaded from the heavens like flowing water.

Tomorrow marked the once-in-a-decade International Medical Exchange Competition, and Duan Nan, the director of the Capital Military Region Hospital, couldn’t wait. He had sent a driver to the Yes to pick up Ye Chenfeng and take him to the designated accommodation in preparation, thus avoiding a rushed trip the next day. Most importantly, the old man Duan Nan wanted to spend more time with his esteemed mentor, Ye Chenfeng, in the hope of learning more from him. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

Since Duan Nan had some urgent matters to handle at the military hospital, he had the driver fetch Ye Chenfeng first. After picking up Ye Chenfeng, the driver headed to the Duan family’s villa.

The driver, a man in his forties, seemed aware of how much Duan Nan valued Ye Chenfeng and took the initiative to get out of the car to open the door for him, saying respectfully, "Mr. Ye, Director Duan asked that you wait in the villa’s lobby for a bit. He will be back from the Capital Military Region Hospital soon and will then take you to the accommodation for the International Medical Exchange Competition."

Ye Chenfeng nodded and walked toward the lobby of the Duan family’s villa. He had agreed to attend the International Medical Competition as an observer solely because Duan Nan addressed him as his mentor, and out of respect, he found it difficult to refuse the request. Besides, Duan Nan had some connection with Old Master Ye; otherwise, why would Ye Chenfeng bother to observe some damn International Medical Exchange Competition? With his medical skills, there was hardly any illness in the world that he couldn’t cure.

Compared to those international medical authorities, if Ye Chenfeng were called a Divine Doctor, then those so-called authorities, in Ye Chenfeng’s eyes, were nothing more than apprentices at best. Therefore, the International Medical Exchange Competition held no observational value for Ye Chenfeng.

The lobby of the Duan’s villa was brightly lit, with three young men and two young women chatting animatedly. All five appeared to be aged around twenty-three or twenty-four. One of the young men was particularly handsome, with a constant confident smile playing at the corners of his mouth. The other two young men and two young women gathered around him, indicating that he was likely the central figure among them.

This handsome young man was named Duan Tianrui, the grandson of Duan Nan, and a student at Capital City Medical University. The two young men and two young women surrounding him were his classmates. After hearing about the International Medical Exchange Competition from his grandfather, Duan Tianrui had implored him to take him along to broaden his horizons.

Duan Tianrui inadvertently mentioned this to his classmates, which led to them asking if they could also be taken to witness the event. After some effort from Duan Tianrui, his grandfather, Duan Nan, eventually agreed.

Out of the two young men, one with glasses seemed very scholarly and was named Fang Junda; the other, a tall and slender youth, was named Wang Qizheng. Both were Duan Tianrui’s dormitory roommates and close friends at the university.

The two young women were quite the contrast: one wore a white dress and had an innocent look; she was named Jiang Yumeng. The other, dressed more boldly and with faint smokey makeup, was Yi Siying. The former was evidently the good girl type and the latter the feisty type, both classmates of Duan Tianrui and on good terms with him.

In university, Duan Tianrui had his own circle, and these two men and two women were prominent figures within it, as well as his closest friends. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have pressed his grandfather, Duan Nan, to take them to experience the International Medical Exchange Competition.

"You all need to behave when you meet my grandfather later. I heard from him that his mentor will also be joining us for the International Medical Exchange Competition. I’ve never heard of my grandfather having a mentor before! Anyone who can be my grandfather’s mentor must be highly skilled in medicine. I think his mentor must be at least eighty or ninety years old, so you four shouldn’t behave as usual," Duan Tianrui said earnestly. Although Duan Nan had mentioned that his mentor would be observing the competition, he hadn’t disclosed his mentor’s identity or age to Duan Tianrui, leading him to naturally assume that such a person, revered in the medical community, must be of advanced age.

"Tianrui, don’t worry at all. Having the chance to attend the International Medical Exchange Competition will undoubtedly benefit our future. Your grandfather is the director of the Capital Military Region Hospital, and his mentor must be even more formidable. We will definitely behave ourselves and take the opportunity to seek advice on medical knowledge from your grandfather and his mentor," Fang Junda, the bespectacled man, said with a smile.

"Tianrui, we won’t cause trouble for your grandfather. I have many questions about medical practices that I would like to ask your grandfather," said Jiang Yumeng, the girl with the innocent look, in a soft and gentle voice to Duan Tianrui.

"Yumeng, stop pretending in front of us. Haven’t you liked Tianrui for a long time? Now you can meet your future grandfather, are you feeling nervous?" Yi Siying, with light smoky makeup on her face, teased boisterously.

"Siying, what are you talking about? If you keep spouting nonsense, I’m going to ignore you," Jiang Yumeng’s cheeks flushed a deep red.

"Siying’s not wrong, Yumeng, your crush on Tianrui is anything but a secret in our circles," the tall and lean Wang Qizheng also joined in the teasing.

When Duan Tianrui saw Jiang Yumeng’s shy demeanor, the smile on his face grew even more exuberant and he said, "Alright, stop mocking Yumeng. She’s not as thick-skinned as you lot."

When Ye Chenfeng entered the Duan’s grand hall, Duan Tianrui and the others were in the midst of an animated conversation. The sudden arrival of Ye Chenfeng drew the attention of everyone in the hall. After sizing up Ye Chenfeng, Duan Tianrui asked, "Who are you?"

Ye Chenfeng casually replied, "Duan Nan asked me to wait here for him so we could go to the place where we’re staying for the International Medical Exchange Competition together."

Duan Tianrui’s expression turned cold. No matter how he looked at Ye Chenfeng, he was just a twenty-something-year-old. How dare he casually call his grandfather by name? He subconsciously categorized Ye Chenfeng as a young man favored by his grandfather. Otherwise, why would his grandfather bring this young man to observe the International Medical Exchange Competition?

"Are you from Capital Medical University? Or perhaps a doctor from one of Capital City’s hospitals? One shouldn’t be too arrogant. It’s a blessing from your past life that my grandfather is willing to take you to observe this International Medical Exchange Competition. Being a junior member of my grandfather’s family, isn’t it rather inappropriate for you to call my grandfather by his name?" Duan Tianrui scrutinized Ye Chenfeng and asked.

Now Duan Nan was shamelessly begging to become Ye Chenfeng’s disciple. Every time Duan Nan met Ye Chenfeng, he respectfully called him ’Master’. If Ye Chenfeng wasn’t to address Duan Nan by his name, should he call him Grandfather Duan instead? Wouldn’t that be totally confusing, with Duan Nan calling Ye Chenfeng ’Master’ while Ye Chenfeng would have to call Duan Nan ’Grandfather Duan’?

Besides, given Duan Nan’s stubborn character, he definitely wouldn’t allow Ye Chenfeng to call him ’Grandfather Duan’, because in his heart, he had already acknowledged Ye Chenfeng as his master.

"You’re Duan Nan’s grandson? I’m afraid your grandfather wouldn’t mind me calling him by his name. If you don’t believe me, you can ask your grandfather later yourself," Ye Chenfeng said, shrugging his shoulders.

Duan Tianrui’s handsome face grew increasingly sullen and the boisterous Yi Siying stepped forward two paces, pointing at Ye Chenfeng and yelled, "Kid, with your pretty and tender skin, if you don’t want to get your balls kicked by me, you’d better address Director Duan as ’Grandfather Duan’."

Yi Siying really had a fiery temper, even more so than a man. It was hard to imagine how such a woman could have applied to Capital Medical University.

Fang Junda and Wang Qizheng watched Ye Chenfeng with schadenfreude. The two of them were often on the receiving end of Yi Siying’s violence, so in their opinion, if this clean-cut young man in front of them didn’t listen to Yi Siying, even if his balls weren’t ruptured, he would still probably end up thrown flat on his back by her.

"You should listen to Siying! Siying has practiced taekwondo for five years; don’t make her actually lay hands on you," the goody-two-shoes Jiang Yumeng warned Ye Chenfeng in a low voice while her face turned red.
