Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 106: Chapter 106: This Ye Haochuan is Really Ruthless! (Two more Chapters added)

The sturdy young man’s voice was quiet, but Ye Haochuan heard every word clearly and thought to himself, Could this be Han Xue’er’s brother?

From just that one sentence, he could tell the man was honest and sincere!

Old Han had mentioned before that they had to sell the genuine Gu Kaizhi painting in desperation for his grandson’s wedding. For Old Han’s sake, if the marriage didn’t go smoothly, Ye Haochuan felt obliged to lend a hand!

On the other side, after hearing his son’s words, Elder Han nodded in agreement but still seemed a bit hesitant.

At that moment, Han Xue’er gently tugged at the hem of her mother Yue Qiaoyun’s clothes, signaling her to speak up for her.

Yue Qiaoyun immediately spoke in a low voice, persuading, ”Child’s father, you don’t judge a monk by his face but by his Buddha nature. Doctor Ye is our Xue Girl’s colleague; we mustn’t slight him.”

Only then did Elder Han make up his mind, apologizing with an embarrassed face, ”Doctor Ye, my apologies. We mountain folks don’t know the city’s etiquettes, please don’t take offense.”

Ye Haochuan wouldn’t hold any grudge against Elder Han; he had to give some face to Han Xue’er, after all. What he disliked the most was actually that gossip, Ma Jinlian.

In fact, Ma Jinlian felt uncomfortable the moment Elder Han made his stance clear. Just as she was about to speak, Ye Haochuan cut her off, ”Auntie Ma, if the host has no issue, surely you wouldn’t either, right?”

Ma Jinlian’s eyebrows shot up as she glared and retorted, ”What Auntie Ma? What kind of eyes do you have, young man? Do I, Ma Jinlian, look that old?”

Ye Haochuan smiled without saying a word. Your mom, with a face full of crow’s feet, and you don’t look old? Thinking that caking on makeup will cover it up? Please!

Seeing Ye Haochen remained silent, Ma Jinlian thought her imposing manner had prevailed and boasted to Elder Han, ”Big brother, I should not overstep my bounds, but for your son Dazhuang’s marriage, I, as his Auntie, have really put my heart into it...”

Having said this much, Elder Han and Yue Qiaoyun had no choice but to nod in agreement, ”Indeed, indeed...”

Ma Jinlian grew more smug, ”Now, as the second mother, I’ve finally matched Xue’er with a rich husband. If you don’t listen to my advice and insist on keeping this insolent kid here, it might reach Young Master Jin’s ears, and the marriage would likely be called off. If the marriage is off, that million-dollar dowry is gone too. Without the dowry, how can Dazhuang marry a bride, huh?”

Hearing this, Ye Haochuan suddenly realized the so-called ’Han Xue marrying into wealth’ was entangled with these benefits!

At this thought, Ye Haochuan glanced at Han Xue, who at that moment wore a pitiable look, her tears swirling in her eyes; clearly, she did not want to get married.

On the other side, Elder Han and his wife looked utterly worried.

”Father, mother,” uttered Han Dazhuang, Han Xue’s elder brother, ”I stand by what I said. I won’t let my own sister sacrifice her happiness for the sake of me, her brother. If Xue’er is unhappy in her marriage, wouldn’t I be the main culprit? If the Zhang Family wants to call off the marriage tomorrow, so be it. I, Han Dazhuang, am able-bodied and young. I refuse to believe that with my own efforts, I cannot marry a bride in the future?”

Seeing the determination on Han Dazhuang’s face, Ye Haochuan couldn’t help clapping his hands in admiration, ”Well said, Brother Dazhuang! A true man should have such spirit! No question about it, for that statement, I, Ye Haochuan, offer you my full support with both hands and feet!”

Han Dazhuang gave him an honest smile, but said nothing.

”Support? With your poor and sour look, you dare talk about support?” scoffed Ma Jinlian, her comments laced with ridicule, ”Young Master Jin can afford a million-dollar dowry, and what can you, a poor man, offer?”

”Ha ha!” Ye Haochuan laughed heartily, shook his head, and turned to Tang Zhen who had been silent the whole time, ”Brother Tang Zhen, you’ve been here for quite a while; isn’t it time for you to say something fair? Tell me, do you think I, Ye Haochuan, can afford a million?”

Everyone was stunned for a moment, as no one had expected Ye Haochuan to be acquainted with the High Disciple of Senior Godly Doctor Kou from Security Hall!

Tang Zhen had witnessed with his own eyes how Ye Haochuan made a fortune overnight by selling Body-Strengthening Pills at Li Tianwei’s banquet. However, he had long considered him a rival in both business and love, so how could he willingly speak in favor of Ye Haochuan?

Just as he was about to claim ignorance, Ye Haochuan saw through his intentions and chuckled, ”Brother Tang Zhen, there’s no need to hold back. Just tell the truth. Even if you misspeak, I won’t let Senior Godly Doctor Kou blame you. Of course, Doctor Kou Jing won’t blame you either.”

This statement seemed harmless on the surface, but Tang Zhen sensed a threat in it.

Damn, this Ye Haochuan is really ruthless!

A few words of reprimand from the master would be fine, but if Kou Jing found out, wouldn’t she look down on him?

Tang Zhen glanced over at Old Master Han and others, with his gaze finally landing on Ma Jinlian. Gritting his teeth, he said, ”Not to mention one million, even ten million Brother Ye Haochuan could take out.”

The room erupted in shock!

Everyone found it unbelievable. Ye Haochuan, in his dusty and ragged appearance, seemingly destitute, was actually so wealthy!

Out of the blue, Han Xue’er added, addressing her parents, ”Dad, Mom, I forgot to tell you, the one million we got from selling our family’s ancestral painting this time was given by Brother Ye.”

”What?”

Old Master Han, Yue Qiaoyun, and Han Dazhuang were all dumbfounded.

Ma Jinlian was also shocked, thinking to herself that she was always so astute, and yet today she had misjudged, how embarrassing!

Ye Haochuan, however, was struck by a thought. Before, Han Xue’er had called him, hesitating to speak—it seemed that from that time, Old Han had sought out his granddaughter and then asked her to contact him. It was just that at the time, he was at the seafood city with Xiao Haimei and hadn’t given it much thought.

At that moment, the discordant voice of Ma Jinlian was heard again, ”So what if he gave one million to our father? Wasn’t it stolen anyway, leaving nothing in the end? I told our father to let us keep the money for safekeeping when it got dark, but he refused. Now, look, it’s all gone.”

Old Master Han sighed, while Yue Qiaoyun wore a look of regret.

Han Dazhuang appeared furious, ”If I find out who stole the bank card, I won’t let them off.”

Ye Haochuan was somewhat puzzled. Not many knew about the one million transferred by Old Han; Xiao Ding and Yu Cheng were the prime suspects. But if Old Han had indeed been robbed, it would have happened much earlier, not just when it got dark today.

As he was contemplating this, a violent coughing fit came from the inner room. Ye Haochuan’s brows furrowed, ”Not good, Elder Han’s condition seems severe. We must check on him right away.”

Upon hearing this, everyone stopped arguing and hurried into the inner room.

However, just as Ye Haochuan was about to step over the threshold, he was grabbed by Ma Jinlian, who hissed venomously, ”You little brat, this isn’t the place for you. Scram, or else I’ll call Young Master Jin, and you’ll be in a world of trouble!”
