Supreme Divine Physician in the City Chapter 1808 - 1809: Trash Talk, A Woman’s Innate Skill
Previously on Supreme Divine Physician in the City...
Later, he entered a top-tier domestic university.
After graduating from university, he emerged as a distinguished scholar, entered society, and with his outstanding intellect and willpower, achieved notable success in just a few years, earning millions annually!
As a self-made man, Liu Liyang felt quite impressive and recently often thought of Ye Xuan with much regret.
He wanted Ye Xuan to see his current success and laugh at him hard, but alas, in a vast sea of people, meeting again is not that easy a thing?
Who would have thought, today he brought his wife to pay respects at his late father’s grave and unexpectedly bumped into Ye Xuan!
Indeed, over the past decade or so, Ye Xuan has changed a lot.
Liu Liyang almost didn’t recognize him!
Seeing the tombstone in front of Ye Xuan, Liu Liyang was practically overjoyed.
Dressed so shabbily, it seems this once genius has indeed fallen on hard times!
Thus, Liu Liyang appeared and approached Ye Xuan.
Liu Liyang was very enthusiastic: "Wow, Ye Xuan, it really is you, we must truly have a connection, meeting again in this lifetime!"
Ye Xuan looked at Liu Liyang, smiled warmly, and said, "It is quite the connection, you must feel very happy, huh?"
"Happy, of course happy, how can you not be happy to see an old classmate? And also, the very genius prodigy who was famous throughout Yan Country back then!"
Liu Liyang smiled broadly, threw a glance at the tombstone beside Ye Xuan, and continued, "Oh, what’s this about? How can there be two tombstones in one burial plot?"
Ye Xuan laughed, "They keep each other company."
"Oh, is that so?" Liu Liyang smirked, "Haha, just joking with you casually, don’t take it too seriously, after all, we were only classmates for a year, apart from the genius prodigy, my few impressions of you include that you scavenged for a living, so those thoughts came to mind first."
Ye Xuan maintained a smile: "Understandable."
"Hmm, as long as you understand!" Liu Liyang patted Ye Xuan’s shoulder, making small talk: "Back in the day, you were really in your element, with your intellect, you should be doing quite well now, right? Where have you been working recently?"
Doing well? Liu Liyang certainly wouldn’t think so, he asked just to better mock Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan didn’t let him down, thought for a moment, and helplessly replied, "Can’t say I’m doing well, just scraping by each day, not knowing what to do."
Liu Liyang feigned surprise, "An unemployed drifter?"
Ye Xuan, smiling, said, "Pretty much."
"No way? How can you become an unemployed drifter? You were a genius prodigy!" Liu Liyang lamented, "Turns out, just having good grades isn’t enough, in this society, it’s all about ability."
Ye Xuan nodded, "Makes sense."
"We’re all old classmates here, don’t say I don’t look out for you, I recently started my own company, how about this, you come work for me, I’ll give you a decent job, how about it?" Liu Liyang said generously.
Ye Xuan was about to speak.
Liu Liyang theatrically looked troubled, "Oh no, my company is aiming for a public listing, needs someone with a degree, you haven’t even gone to college, that’s definitely not going to work, seems like even I can’t help you!"
Ye Xuan continued to smile, "No worries, it’s the thought that counts."
Liu Liyang smirked and shook his head, suddenly thinking of something, he waved in a certain direction, "Honey, come here, I ran into an old classmate, the one I told you about, the old classmate who picked up trash!"
A heavily made-up young wife sauntered over from a distance.
She dressed provocatively, her figure curvy and attractive, her makeup-enhanced face quite refined, enough to be considered a goddess by ordinary standards.
This was another asset Liu Liyang wanted to flaunt.
Seeing this, Ye Xuan felt helpless, pondered for a moment, then took out his phone to send a WeChat to Lin Tong, who had just gone down the hill to buy offerings, instructing her not to come up yet.
He wanted to see what antics Liu Liyang could pull today...
The seductive woman in heavy makeup swayed her hips as she approached Liu Liyang’s side.
The couple seemed to share a tacit understanding.
Without needing Liu Liyang to say much, the beautiful wife’s cold gaze swept over Ye Xuan, her lips curling into a scornful smile: "Honey, is this the classmate you often mention who picked up trash? Didn’t you say he was a genius prodigy? Looks nothing like a genius to me, rather quite poverty-stricken!"
Liu Liyang exclaimed, "Lili, what kind of talk is that? Poverty isn’t a crime, we shouldn’t look down on someone just because they’re poor, besides, how can you tell he’s poor?"
"Isn’t that obvious?"
Zhou Li glanced at the tombstones of Ye Han and Chen Xuanba and snickered, "This place, a burial plot here isn’t worth more than a few thousand, right? In East Sea, everyone knows this cemetery is for the poor, anyone with some means would move their ancestors elsewhere, like we are planning to do with Dad’s grave, moving it elsewhere. And look at him, forcing an extra tombstone here, how poor must he be to not afford even East Sea’s cheapest cemetery? Genius? More like a fool!"
Zhou Li’s words were sharp, almost every word was a stab to the heart, if Ye Xuan really were as poor as she said, just these words alone might make him blush with anger.
Cursing seems to be an innate skill of women.
And Liu Liyang was very satisfied with Zhou Li’s performance, he liked this about Zhou Li, not only was she attractive with a good figure and many positions, but most importantly, she completely understood him, sometimes without even needing a look, she would know exactly what he wanted her to do.
Just like now, Zhou Li’s ridicule had Liu Liyang beside himself with joy.
Of course, Liu Liyang wouldn’t show it.
"Lili, that’s enough, Ye Xuan is my classmate, mind your words!" Liu Liyang rebuked with a stern face.
Zhou Li pouted in mock grievance, but didn’t dare rebut Liu Liyang.
Inwardly, Liu Liyang was delighted, at this moment, his wife was giving him so much face, surely Ye Xuan across must be green with envy?
Liu Liyang turned back to Ye Xuan, apologetically said, "Ye Xuan, don’t take it too seriously, my wife is straightforward, says what she thinks, definitely wasn’t mocking you."
The meaning is simple.
My wife is honest, you’re poor, she says you’re poor, she looks down on you, she just says she looks down on you, best not to mind, because minding is useless.
Ye Xuan glanced indifferently at Zhou Li, smiled and shook his head, "Don’t worry, I never stoop to a whore’s level."
