Chapter 158: Seriously, is nobody going to do something about her?
The sound of the doorbell startled Jiang Guoxing.
He thought the Tang family had tracked him down so soon.
This made him quickly say, "Qiqi, you and little Chu should hide quickly. I'll handle them."
"There's no need for that."
Jiang Yunqi replied, "Dad, just rest assured. With him here, no one can bully our family!"
With that, she ran to open the door.
"When I was young, I was just like you. Relying on a bit of skill, I didn't put anyone in my eyes."
Jiang Guoxing tried to persuade Chu Fei with the air of someone who had seen it all. "But you can see my ending now. I can't even protect my own family now."
"No matter the era, young people are always in a rush to throw away their lives. Heroes are, at best, just a bunch of dead people. So listen to my advice, nothing is more important than staying alive!"
Chu Fei knew Jiang Guoxing must have been through something to be so pessimistic.
He didn't want to refute Jiang Guoxing.
Because he was only trying to persuade him out of concern, but some words simply had to be spoken.
"Dad, I don't know what you've been through."
Chu Fei smiled, "To be honest, the word 'death' really holds no persuasive power over me."
"I am a romantic. Living with too much clarity is already an unromantic thing."
Jiang Guoxing sighed.
He knew that trying to persuade him further was useless.
This brat was just like his former self: stubborn, unyielding, and arrogant enough to want to leave his mark on this world.
Yet what was the result?
He firmly believed that evil could not triumph over justice.
But they were the ones who defined what was just and what was evil.
How could anyone win against that?!
Just as Jiang Guoxing was wondering how to handle the situation, he discovered that the people walking in were not from the Tang family.
Instead, they were a tall woman and an imposing middle-aged man.
The woman was very pretty. Although her facial features could not match Jiang Yunqi's extraordinary beauty, she was still considered quite attractive by common standards.
Mainly, she carried an air of arrogance, giving the impression that she didn't look down at people with her nose, but rather with her chin.
Her attire was also in a cool, edgy style: a pair of studded knee-high boots, a tight leather jacket and matching pants, and a pair of oversized sunglasses on her face. Anyone unaware would have thought she was some newly debuted investigative officer from a television series!
"Who are you?" Jiang Guoxing asked.
The woman did not answer his question.
Instead, with an expression of disgust, she pulled out a handkerchief and covered her nose, as if there was a foul odor in the room.
She looked at the middle-aged man and said, "Yuan Gang, you talk to them. I can't be bothered to deal with these lower-class people."
These words were somewhat insulting.
The expressions of the Jiang family members turned somewhat displeased.
As for Chu Fei, he had a wealth of experience dealing with people like this; in such situations, a single slap usually made them obedient!
"We are from the Sun family!"
Perhaps people who bullied others using borrowed power all shared the same virtue, so the man called Yuan Gang also looked down at them with a condescending expression.
"I heard from Dean Pang that there is a miraculous doctor here who can cure our family patriarch's illness. Who is that person? Come with us!"
People from the Sun family?!
As locals of Yuncheng, the Jiang family naturally knew how vast the Sun family's influence was.
Even the Tang family was nothing compared to them; they weren't even on the same level!
Such a prominent figure had actually come to look for Chu Fei to cure an illness.
This caused Jiang Guoxing's gaze to instinctively turn toward Chu Fei.
If they could hitch themselves to the mighty tree of the Sun family, they wouldn't need to fear the Tang family anymore!
"So it's Miss Sun Zihan!"
The moment he thought of this, Jiang Guoxing enthusiastically introduced Chu Fei. "This is the miraculous doctor who cured my illness, and also my family's fine son-in-law, Chu Fei!"
The Sun family's reputation locally was simply too loud.
Even people from ordinary families like the Jiangs had heard of Sun Zihan's great name.
Rumor had it that this beloved pearl of the Sun family was a martial arts genius second only to Tang Wenxuan.
Not only was she ranked twenty-fifth on the rookie leaderboard, but she was also extremely talented in business, making her Old Master Sun's most cherished granddaughter.
Aside from her somewhat proud and conceited personality, she truly had no other flaws.
Still, being a member of the Sun family, she genuinely had the right to disregard anyone she pleased!
Upon hearing that Chu Fei was the miraculous doctor, Sun Zihan gave him a brief glance.
Noticing not the slightest ripple of spiritual energy on him, she instantly lost interest.
An ordinary person like this was a miraculous doctor?
Sun Zihan found it laughable.
She had no idea what Dean Pang and her grandfather were thinking, actually having her, the grand Miss Sun, come to invite such a lower-class person!
She didn't even have the interest to converse with Chu Fei.
She simply signaled Yuan Gang with her eyes.
Yuan Gang immediately spoke up, "Brat, come with us. Being able to cure Old Master Sun's illness is your honor!"
"Oh, so you're begging me to go cure him?"
Chu Fei realized with a start, "If you're asking a favor of me, you should at least be polite. You're acting like I'm the one begging you."
"How about this: kowtow to me a few times, and if I'm in a good mood, I'll go."
He was a man who never delayed settling a grudge.
If you're asking for a favor, ask properly; what was with this deadpan arrogance?
Wasn't this forcing him to slap your face? How shameless can you get?
"Brat, do you know what you're saying?"
Yuan Gang rebuked angrily, "You actually dare to ask us to kneel before you? What kind of thing do you think you are? If Pang Li hadn't kept recommending you, do you think you'd even be qualified to speak with us?"
"It's best for people to have a little self-awareness and not really think of themselves as somebody important!"
Chu Fei put on a frightened look. "Don't be like this. I was bitten by a dog when I was a kid, and your attitude is making me very scared."
Yuan Gang: "..."
This brat was taking a roundabout way to call him a dog!
Consumed by rage, he glared at Chu Fei, suppressing his anger with great difficulty.
Had Old Master Sun not given strict instructions against using violence, he would have made sure Chu Fei learned why the flowers were so red!
Beside him, Sun Zihan let out a cold laugh. "I don't know if you have any skills, but your tongue is certainly venomous. Very well, you brat have successfully caught my attention."
"What do you mean?"
Chu Fei frowned.
Where on earth did this knockoff Meng Ziyi come from?
She was actually using overbearing CEO quotes!
"Putting on an act like this, aren't you just trying to raise your own value?"
Sun Zihan looked at Chu Fei with the air of someone who saw right through him. "How about this: as long as you come with me, this young lady will give you one million. If you can cure my grandfather, I'll give you another ten million."
"Even if you can't cure him, that one million will serve as your travel expenses. How's that?"
With such generous terms, she refused to believe Chu Fei wouldn't agree.
Unfortunately...
"If you have so much money and nowhere to spend it, you might as well pay some IQ tax for yourself."
Chu Fei's smile was sincere, as if he were truly offering friendly advice.
"Or, take that money to a neurology hospital and book a specialist appointment."
"Emergency!"
He genuinely suspected there was something wrong with this woman's brain.
This whole thing had nothing to do with money from start to finish.
All he wanted was a proper attitude, and since they couldn't provide that, good riddance!
Yet Chu Fei clearly underestimated the extent of this woman's mental deficiency.
Sun Zihan suddenly wore an expression of sudden enlightenment, and blurted out something as foul as diarrhea.
"You don't want money? Could it be that you want *me*?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the Jiang family members were dumbfounded, and Jiang Yunqi's brows furrowed deeply into the shape of the character for three.
Only Chu Fei was left with a head full of question marks: "...What kind of raving nonsense are you spewing?"
"Stop playing these games, I've already seen right through you!"
Sun Zihan snorted coldly. "You clearly think this young lady is pretty and want to use this method to attract my attention. Such a low-level game of playing hard to get, it's truly laughable."
"Let me tell you, what this young lady likes are powerhouses like Nie Fengyun, not an ordinary person with zero cultivation like you!"
No wonder Sun Zihan was so confident.
After all, she was pretty, and from childhood to adulthood, there had never been a man who wasn't moved by her.
Someone as outstanding as Tang Wenxuan was her pursuer, let alone this "mediocre" stinky brat before her eyes.
— He definitely wants a piece of me, how base!
"No, is there anyone going to manage her?"
Chu Fei pointed at Sun Zihan with an expression of disgust. "Why are you talking with as much logic as a zebra's brain?"
"I'm begging you, can your drama be as minimal as your IQ?"
Facing Chu Fei's rapid-fire questions, Sun Zihan put on a confident expression. "If I say you do, then you do. You don't even dare to admit it, you're not manly at all. Just for that alone, you're not worthy of me!"
"What the hell!"
Chu Fei couldn't hold back anymore. "You say I do because you say so? If you don't go work as a doctor at an infertility clinic, you're fucking wasting your talent!"
Sun Zihan processed the words selectively and replied, "You even want to make me pregnant, how bold!"
Chu Fei: "..."
— Damn it, later I'm going to pick up a stool and smash it down just to see if you keep acting crazy!
