Supreme Divine Physician in the City Chapter 1944 - 1945: Qiao Family, Eldest Young Master
Previously on Supreme Divine Physician in the City...
Obviously, Xiahou Yudie has admitted defeat.
I concede!
No matter if her heart was convinced or not, at least she admitted it verbally.
However, Ye Xuan didn’t plan to let her off easily. Even as she uttered words of remorse, he had no intention of letting go; instead, he held her tighter.
Xiahou Yudie naturally could feel the ever-tightening grip, almost squeezing her, and for a moment, she was extremely embarrassed and angry.
She regretted it immensely.
Knowing full well Ye Xuan’s shamelessness, she still naively thought she could defeat this bastard. Where did she get the confidence?
Great, now she’s just asking for trouble!
What to do?
Ye Xuan occupied the advantage, refusing to let go, and she didn’t have enough strength to push him away. Would she have to let him continue acting as he pleased?
There was still over an hour before the car would arrive!
If she couldn’t figure out a way to resolve this, she couldn’t even dare to imagine what extreme actions Ye Xuan might take in over an hour!
Xiahou Yudie opened her eyes and glanced at Ye Xuan, seeing him ’snuggled’ in her arms, looking ’delicate’, she was almost spitting blood in anger.
She painfully closed her eyes again, sighed in powerlessness: "I was wrong, as an apology, I’ll add another week of service time for you, okay?"
"Okay."
Ye Xuan immediately sat up, agreeing so decisively and without objection.
Xiahou Yudie was stunned.
Was he still Ye Xuan, being this agreeable?
But the next second, Xiahou Yudie gritted her teeth again in deep frustration.
Was Ye Xuan really being agreeable? No, the terms she offered couldn’t be refused by anyone!
Adding another week...
My goodness, thinking of the endless days and nights of serving Ye Xuan, Xiahou Yudie couldn’t help falling into a breakdown... What was wrong with her brain that made her rashly challenge him?
She brought it upon herself!
Meanwhile, others watching the dynamics between Ye Xuan and Xiahou Yudie were baffled and couldn’t understand what these two were doing.
Acting so weirdly, is there something wrong?
Perceiving the bizarre gazes from the bystanders, Xiahou Yudie’s already collapsing heart crumbled further.
Whereas Ye Xuan seemed carefree, continuing to munch on sunflower seeds and snacks, as if nothing in the world concerned him.
"With someone so shameless, how can I compete with him?" Xiahou Yudie felt her scalp tingle, thinking she should just be honest in front of Ye Xuan.
To avoid working tirelessly for no result, and eventually suffering more herself!
...
Hidden Dragon, Qiao Family!
Bright sunshine.
In the vast manor, there was a white tiger, trapped in a cage, roaring angrily, while outside the cage stood a handsome, tall man.
Imposing, like a natural-born leader.
Qiao Family’s eldest master, the almost certain future leader of Qiao Family, Qiu Qianqiu!!
Qiu Qianqiu casually fed and teased the caged white tiger while listening calmly and contained to his subordinate’s report, his face always holding a faint smirk.
Finally, the subordinate finished his report.
Qiu Qianqiu also stopped feeding the tiger, stretched lazily: "That kid Qiao Yihang, self-secluded, hasn’t seen much, yet thought himself invincible, ended up losing his life, quite ridiculous."
The subordinate beside him stayed silent, feeling something indescribable inside.
Qiu Qianqiu and Qiao Yihang were brothers by blood, but always had opposite personalities.
Younger brother Qiao Yihang was arrogant, reckless, frequently making mistakes.
Elder master Qiu Qianqiu was calm and modest, tackling every little thing with patience and caution, cunning like a snake.
Due to their personality differences, the brothers never had particularly harmonious relationships, naturally lacking deep affection.
Thus, when Qiu Qianqiu heard of Qiao Yihang’s death, he had hardly any emotional fluctuation, neither joy nor anger, as if the deceased were merely a stranger to him.
"But regardless, he was my brother, the second master of Qiao Family, yet Ye Xuan was born our enemy, so we cannot let this matter rest." Qiu Qianqiu squinted, suddenly smiling.
"We received word that Ye Xuan is on his way to Hidden Dragon." The subordinate said solemnly: "He is the only person with the Taiyin Divine Needle nowadays, the Xiahou Family’s old monster was severely injured during practice when qigong clashed in veins, only he can heal her."
"Hmm..."
Qiu Qianqiu hummed, clicked his tongue repeatedly: "The Xiahou Family should have declined long ago, yet it stands strong, solely because of that old monster’s presence. Now the old monster is gravely injured, and the person to save her is none other than the one we must kill, quite the coincidence."
Subordinate: "Does the master have any plans?"
Qiu Qianqiu said lightly: "Ye Xuan is the one we must kill, Xiahou Family is traditionally unfriendly to Qiao Family, this opportunity is rare and shouldn’t be missed."
Subordinate said: "But though Ye Xuan is from the Mortal World, his strength remains inscrutable, on this journey, Xiahou Yudie accompanies him, intercepting and killing them en route won’t be easy, and once they safely reach Xiahou Family, it’s even harder.
Moreover, even if we act, it must be successful, ensuring both Ye Xuan and Xiahou Yudie die along the way. If one survives, it’ll provoke Xiahou Family’s wrath and be a major trouble for Qiao Family."
"For such high-risk matters, our Qiao Family certainly can’t act." Qiu Qianqiu smiled faintly.
The subordinate was startled: "I seek the master’s guidance."
Qiu Qianqiu glanced at him, smiling with interest: "Qiao Family cannot act because of Hidden Dragon’s restraints, wary of Xiahou Family, but the overseas Superpower Association doesn’t have such concerns."
The subordinate froze for a second: "Is the master suggesting to invite Superpower Association’s experts for assistance?"
"Otherwise?" Qiu Qianqiu smiled: "As allies, shouldn’t we support each other? Over the years, Qiao Family has done plenty for them, hasn’t it?"
"The master is absolutely right!" The subordinate regained composure quickly and nodded: "I’ll contact the Superpower Association’s concealed division in Yan Country to dispatch experts immediately!"
Qiu Qianqiu nodded: "Send that toxic creature to ensure success."
"Yes!" The subordinate bowed and retreated.
Qiu Qianqiu picked up another piece of blood-stained raw meat, teasing the white tiger at the cage again, his lips curling into a contemptuous and playful arc: "You were once king of the mountains, endlessly glorious, yet before me now, just a powerless pet. I don’t even need to act, and I can control your life...You and Ye Xuan, no difference."
