Zhao Wuyan certainly did not want to get entangled in such trouble. Even though both the Zhao Family and Sun Family had the capability to smooth over the act of murder. However, what Zhao Wuyan couldn’t understand was why Xu Liu, this old-tir, after spending so many years in Jiangzhou, would make such a foolish decision.
It just didn’t make sense.
Zhao Wuyan looked up at the ti; it was getting late, and he had important matters to attend to. Since the birthday person was not around, he said to Xu Zhaopei:
"Miss Xu, this is my birthday gift for Mr. Xu, and please, also convey my regards to him. I have urgent matters, so I won’t stay any longer."
Xu Zhaopei nodded and softly said, "Thank you."
But Fang Yu gave her a cold look and said, "Why thank him? You didn’t even thank ."
Zhao Wuyan did not get angry, maintained his smile, nodded, and then left the hall with his companions.
...
Other wealthy youngsters who had co, all breathed a sigh of relief. With Sun Junzhong and Zhao Wuyan around, they were very anxious. Now that they had left, the pressure was not so great.
But...
Many had co today for the sake of Sun Junzhong’s face; now that he had left, everyone was unsure of what to do.
Neither sitting nor leaving felt right.
Gifts had already been given, not eating a al would be a waste!
Fang Yu walked to the center, scanned the crowd, and loudly said: "Don’t just stand there, everyone please take a seat, don’t be shy, eat if you want to eat, drink if you want to drink."
"——"
Jiang Wei was stunned for a mont, then pulled her sister to sit down.
Her sister, Jiang Xiaoxiao, with big eyes full of indignation, said, "Sister, how can he be so shaless?"
"Who should I ask if not you?"
...
Just when everyone had just sat down, Fang Yu walked towards the center of the table.
Then said mockingly, "Huh? Those few who were belittling at the entrance, who were they? I can’t seem to rember... Wait, let think..."
"How strange, I can’t rember, don’t let rember, or I’ll urinate in fright!"
"——"
Those rich youngsters who had mocked Fang Yu at the entrance heard this, their faces changed slightly, and none dared to stay any longer. Terrified, they stood up and scurried out the door.
...
At the table, Jiang Xiaoxiao lowered her voice and cursed, "Not only is he shaless, but he is also narrow-minded."
...
The remaining people all sat down, but nobody started eating.
They knew that Fang Yu was not the host, his words were just for laughs.
As expected—
Old Mr. Xu Liu ca out from the back door.
He looked like he was not worried at all, even sowhat gleeful.
"Grandpa."
Blaming herself for the current situation, Xu Zhaopei felt a bit terrified, fearing her grandfather’s scolding.
However...
Old Mr. Xu Liu, far from being angry, was, on the contrary, very happy.
"Good granddaughter, it’s grandpa’s birthday, why the long face?"
"Um..."
Xu Liu laughed heartily.
The guests also looked at Xu Liu, feeling bewildered.
They wondered if this young man nad Fang Yu intentionally staged a play to drive people away, and now that Old Mr. Xu had appeared, could the lie continue?
But then—
Xu Liu said cheerfully:
"I apologize, my old ailnt recurred, delaying for a while. Dr. Fang said it was not suitable for to et people, but I thought otherwise."
His tone paused.
Everyone nodded their heads.
This was the proper way to treat guests. But since Sun Junzhong and the others had already left, was there no explanation for it?
Xu Liu continued loudly:
"Also, I need to announce to everyone—"
"My future son-in-law, he is, Fang Yu."
The whole room burst into an uproar.
Discussions abounded.
Their expressions were vivid, none daring to believe what they heard.
Even Xu Zhaopei herself felt like she was dreaming. How did this bastard convince Grandpa? The more she thought about it, the more incredible it seed.
When Jiang Wei heard this news, for so reason, her heart fluttered, an indescribable feeling, like a stone dropping into a deep well. It was slightly uncomfortable, yet numb.
...
Everyone had their doubts, why would this happen?
At that mont, Xu Liu looked at his granddaughter, filled with kindness and doting—
"Peipei, I’ve thought it through. As an elder, I should not separate you two. Since you and Fang Yu love each other so much, you should treat each other well and cherish each other in the future. Understand?"
Xu Zhaopei looked at her grandfather with complex eyes and nodded, "Understood."
Regardless of what her grandfather thought, as long as she didn’t marry Sun Junzhong, she was happy.
"Don’t just stand there, everyone eat as you please."
The banquet began.
Guests went up one by one to offer their toasts.
Xu Liu was truly suffering from an old ailnt and excused himself from drinking.
Seeing this, Fang Yu thought, this old man really knows how to evade. According to the customs, after toasting this old man, it should be his turn. How could he accept that?
"Grandpa Xu, I can cure your illness," Fang Yu said with a smile.
"What? You can cure it?"
Xu Liu laughed heartily, "This old problem of mine has been around for decades, and many famous doctors have seen it with no solution. The best treatnt is only maintaining it with dicine, you can’t cure it."
Fang Yu shook his head, "That’s because you haven’t t ...since I ran into you today, might as well do a good deed and help you treat it."
Everyone almost forgot.
He was a doctor.
Xu Zhaopei believed in him, Jiang Wei believed in him. Others looked at him with puzzled faces.
Would Old Master Xu believe in him?
The old master almost forgot too, Fang Yu was no ordinary doctor, he possessed the Taiyi Divine Needle! Such divine technique!
"Bring a pen."
"What are you going to do?" Old Master Xu asked with a smile.
"Nonsense, I’m obviously going to write a prescription."
When he said the word "nonsense", everyone was startled, thinking this young man must be crazy again.
However, Old Master Xu wasn’t angry at all, instead, he lowered his stance and awkwardly said:
"Alright, alright, you write..."
Pen and paper were quickly brought over, but Fang Yu did not imdiately start writing.
Holding the pen and paper, he went to Xu Liu’s side, putting his arm around his shoulder, and said:
"Old man, I need to see this ailnt of yours with my own eyes clearly...let’s go inside."
"Alright, alright..."
The two walked shoulder to shoulder toward the backyard, like two brothers.
At that mont—
The entire hall was silent.
You could hear a pin drop.
Everyone felt that their long-held principles were thoroughly shattered by what they witnessed.
...
Arriving in the backyard.
Old Master Xu asked gently, "Can this illness really be cured by Taiyi Divine Needle?"
"Of course it can be cured."
"Little Fang, Sun Qing’s Taiyi Divine Needle..."
Before he could finish speaking, Fang Yu interrupted him with a wave of his hand, "Don’t ntion him! In terms of seniority, he’s junior to —"
Hearing this, Xu Liu’s heart stirred tumultuously.
This was tantamount to confirming a fact, Fang Yu was indeed from the Lu Family.
Sun Qing was revered and respected because like him, he ca from the Lu Family—that Sect which possesses a master of Martial Arts Seventh Layer Heaven!
