Ultimate Village Doctor-Chapter 699 - 761 Apologizing
Chapter 699: Chapter 761: Apologizing Chapter 699: Chapter 761: Apologizing Chapter Seven Hundred and Sixty-One
Guo Yuankui was well aware of the formidable power of a Xuan Level Expert.
Raised by Tang Shengfeng himself, he had close ties with the Tang Family and knew that even within the Hidden Sects, a Xuan Level Expert was considered a master.
Even with his billions in wealth,
it would be a piece of cake for a Xuan Level Expert to kill him.
Cold sweat instantly began to pour down Guo Yuankui’s face.
Such a young man, and yet already at the Xuan Level, he must have come from a major force within the Hidden Sects.
He was just a secular magnate; how could he dare to oppose the major sects of the Hidden Sects?
Guo Yuankui was a shrewd man, adept at sailing with the wind.
...
If he were just a mindless brute, he could never have climbed to his current position and claimed a place for himself in Tianfu City.
Guo Yuankui immediately bowed deeply and said, “I didn’t know Mr.
Long was the lifesaver of niece Yan, turns out we are from the same family.
It’s a case of ‘the great flood has rushed into the Dragon King Temple,’ I earnestly beg Mr.
Long for forgiveness.”
Long Xiaoshan remained indifferent and silent.
Tang Shengfeng chastised, “Little Guo, you have offended a respected figure, why aren’t you quickly arranging a banquet to apologize?”
“Yes, yes,” Guo Yuankui hurriedly said, “Please, sir, move to the Emperor’s Hall.
I will personally apologize to you.
As for Meng Xiaofei offending you, sir, he is at your mercy.”
“There’s no need for a banquet and apology.
Since I said I’d let you off the hook, I’ll do just that.
But such an incident won’t happen a second time.
If you dare cross me again, even if the Heavenly King himself pleaded on your behalf, I would still take your life,” a glint of cold light flashed across Long Xiaoshan’s eyes.
“Yes, yes, I absolutely wouldn’t dare, absolutely wouldn’t dare!”
Guo Yuankui bobbed his head like pounding garlic.
He was truly scared.
His throat still ached terribly, and the sensation of choking was surging back again.
“Enough, I and some friends still want to drink here, get out!” Long Xiaoshan waved his hand dismissively, as if shooing away flies.
Guo Yuankui cast a somewhat fearful glance at Tang Shengfeng, who gave him a look.
Guo Yuankui quickly led his men out in a dispirited retreat.
These men had only their arms broken; they were able to move without hindrance.
While Guo Yuankui and his men had left, Tang Shengfeng and Tang Yan did not.
Tang Shengfeng had become very curious about Long Xiaoshan, such a young Xuan Level Expert and also a Divine Doctor.
When had Xichuan Province’s Hidden Sects produced such a character?
Logically, such a young genius should have been famous among the Hidden Sects long ago, like their Tang Family’s Tang Xiao.
Cao Wenbai and the others seemed to come back to their senses only after Guo Yuankui and his men left in a panic.
Their eyes took on a look of newfound recognition when they turned to Long Xiaoshan.
If Long Xiaoshan’s beating Meng Xiaofei, hitting Boss Guo’s men, or even hitting Boss Guo himself, was still within their realm of acceptance, it only proved Long Xiaoshan was a good fighter, very strong, and reckless.
But Long Xiaoshan had almost finished off Boss Guo just now.
And Boss Guo, rather than seeking revenge, was going to offer a banquet as an apology.
This disbelief was too much for Cao Wenbai and others to take.
Long Xiaoshan walked back to the sofa and motioned to the cowering Cao Wenbai and others in the corner, “Come over, what are you standing there for?”
Cao Wenbai and the others walked back to the sofa, somewhat tremulously.
Cao Wenbai said, “Mr.
Long, who exactly are you, why is Boss Guo so afraid of you?”
Jiang Xue, Chen Huahui, and the others also turned their eyes to Long Xiaoshan, especially Yue Rong, who looked extremely tense.
Long Xiaoshan smiled, “Didn’t I say already?
I’m a farmer, Xuehan can vouch for that.”
“That’s impossible.
If you’re a farmer, why would Boss Guo be so afraid of you?
I saw just now he was almost scared to tears,” Qi Yingshin quickly said, disbelief written all over her face.
Long Xiaoshan smiled faintly, “Then it must be thanks to Mr.
Tang here, I suppose.”
He nodded towards Tang Shengfeng.
Tang Shengfeng and Tang Yan approached, and upon hearing Long Xiaoshan’s words, Tang Shengfeng, as astute as anyone, took the conversation and said, “Mr.
Long has cured my daughter’s illness.
Since Guo is my friend and he has offended Mr.
Long, it is only natural that I make him offer an apology to Mr.
Long.”
Cao Wenbai and the others, noting Tang Shengfeng’s extraordinary presence, hurriedly said, “Uncle, good day, may I ask if you are…”
“I am Tang Shengfeng,” Tang Shengfeng replied politely, shaking hands with Cao Wenbai and the rest of them one by one.
Having seemingly heard the name before, Cao Wenbai had a realization a moment later and exclaimed, “Uncle Tang, aren’t you the Chairman of the Shengfeng Group?”
“It’s just a small business,” Tang Shengfeng said modestly.
Cao Wenbai and the others were immensely shocked.
Although the Shengfeng Group was mainly based in QY City, it was one of the largest private enterprises in the province, already listed on the stock market; Tang Shengfeng had repeatedly ranked in the top ten of Forbes’ list of wealthiest individuals in Xichuan Province, and was the wealthiest man in QY City.
For such a tycoon, Cao Wenbai and the others, although they were from Tianfu City, were also well aware of his reputation, as he was a financial figure often featured in business magazines.
The group suddenly understood.
The notion that such a high-profile figure as Tang Shengfeng had stepped forward,
Made it utterly normal for Boss Guo to bow his head.
Although Boss Guo was wealthy, compared to these true moguls, he was still in a different league.
Who would have thought that Long Xiaoshan actually knew Tang Shengfeng, and had even saved his daughter?
It truly was a case of a poor boy turning into a phoenix after flying onto a branch.
Everyone couldn’t help but sigh at Long Xiaoshan’s stroke of incredible luck.
At that moment,
Through the entrance came a parade of waiters,
Bringing in a variety of fine wines and exquisite dishes.
Soon, they filled an entire table.
Cao Wenbai and the others, who came from affluent backgrounds, couldn’t help but marvel at the sight of the wines delivered, for they were top-tier spirits: Louis XIII cognac, Royal Salute, Ace of Spades champagne…
Each worth tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands.

Even these second- and third-tier scions from Tianfu City would never dream of ordering such expensive drinks when playing at bars.
Yet now, such drinks were being presented like free-flowing water.
Not to mention the food – the delivered beverages alone must have been worth a million.
Guo Yuankui followed closely behind the waitstaff, and once the drinks and food were served, he waved the waitstaff away.
He opened a bottle of Rémy Martin XO,
Raised it before Long Xiaoshan and said, “Mr.
Long, I am deeply sorry for the offense earlier.
I shall drink this bottle as an apology.
As for you, please, drink as you wish.”
After speaking, Guo Yuankui placed the bottle of Rémy Martin XO to his lips and drained it in one go.
Cao Wenbai and the others watched wide-eyed, unable to speak.
Guo Yuankui had actually drunk an entire bottle of Rémy Martin XO.
With an alcohol content similar to the whiskey Meng Xiaofei had previously downed, a whole bottle was unquestionably hard to stomach.
Everyone was filled with doubts.
Even if Boss Guo wasn’t quite on Tang Shengfeng’s level, the difference couldn’t be too great.
After all, he too was a big shot in Tianfu City.
It seemed excessive that he would demean himself to such an extent simply because Long Xiaoshan had saved Tang Shengfeng’s daughter’s life.
To drink an entire bottle of XO as an apology—was it really necessary to go to such lengths?
After downing the entire bottle of XO, Guo Yuankui’s body swayed a few times, and his complexion turned pale.
Still, living up to his status as a Tianfu big shot, he quickly steadied himself, held up the empty bottle, and bent slightly forward, seemingly awaiting Long Xiaoshan’s decision.
Long Xiaoshan lifted his head, gazed indifferently at Guo Yuankui for a moment, then picked up a glass of red wine from the table and lightly touched it with his lips.
