Medic Martial Dragon King

The private room was filled with people, all from the Wang Family.

These people were all at odds with Jiang Chen, having opposed him at the banquet a few days earlier.

”Come on, Jiang Chen, take a seat.”

Wang Dongyang walked over to the seat next to the host at the main table and sat down, gesturing for Jiang Chen to sit beside him.

Jiang Chen was taken aback for a moment and glanced at the still-empty seat of honor. Was someone else coming? Amid his confusion, Jiang Chen sat down beside Wang Dongyang.

”Dongyang, why did you invite him again?”

”Exactly, isn’t he just a live-in son-in-law? Why did you call him here?”

”Dining with such a loser, won’t you feel embarrassed when the guests arrive?”

The Wang Family members were particularly vengeful. Seeing Jiang Chen, none of them had a good expression, each speaking with cold irony and hot sarcasm.

Wang Dongyang waved his hand: ”Hey, don’t say that. Since Jiang Chen and I are relatives, I might as well give him a leg up if I can.”

Wang Dongyang’s father, Wang Youchen, glanced at Jiang Chen with disdain and said, ”Dongyang, your heart is in the right place, but I’m afraid some people are like mud that can’t be propped against a wall.”

”Indeed, Dongyang, don’t waste your effort!” Wang Dongyang’s mother also looked down on Jiang Chen with disdain, advising her son.

Wang Dongyang waved his hand again: ”It’s fine. If I can help, then I’ll help.”

Although smiling on the outside, Wang Dongyang was grumbling in his heart. If this good-for-nothing hadn’t run into me shopping with my lover, I wouldn’t bother paying him any mind.

Wang Dongyang turned to Jiang Chen: ”Jiang Chen, let me be honest with you. These past two days, I’ve taken on a subcontract for a big project. My family is celebrating for me. I invited you because I wanted you to make some money too, instead of always idling around. Otherwise, Jing Yi will eventually kick you to the curb. Come work with me, and I’ll make you a subcontractor. I’ll make sure you want for nothing.”

As he spoke, he patted Jiang Chen’s shoulder with a look of earnest concern: ”However, when you work with me, there is one basic requirement, and that is to keep a tight rein on your tongue, you can’t spout off recklessly.”

The corners of Jiang Chen’s mouth curled up, and he instantly got the message: ”Don’t worry, I won’t talk too much. But you also don’t need to find any work for me – I’m not interested in your offer.”

Wang Dongyang was immediately stunned. Wow, that’s quite the attitude.

The members of the Wang Family were also stunned, and Wang Youchen immediately sneered: ”Haha, you’re boasting like this with your kind of status? Do you know how big the project we are discussing is? This is a Chenfeng Group project. Can you believe he’s talking big like this? What an act!”

”Exactly, Dongyang, I told you, you shouldn’t have invited him.”

”Absolutely out of touch with reality!”

”Becomes a live-in son-in-law and forgets his own name!”

The Wang Family members took turns ridiculing Jiang Chen.

The Chenfeng Group? Is it supposed to be impressive? Isn’t that just a company invested in by the Sihai Holdings? I’m the president of The Four Seas, for crying out loud!

Jiang Chen was surprised for a moment. He hadn’t expected that the project Wang Dongyang snagged was indeed invested in by the Sihai Company. He muttered to himself, not bothering with the Wang Family members.

As they were talking, the door to the private room was opened, and a young man walked in.

”Young Master Lin, you’re here? President Lin didn’t come?” Wang Dongyang quickly got up to greet him.

Young Master Lin glanced at Wang Dongyang with disdain: ”For a minor project like yours, do you think it’s worth my brother’s personal attention?”

”Heh, of course, of course,” Wang Dongyang responded with a smile, but then he noticed a bruise on the young man’s face and immediately asked with concern, ”Young Master Lin, what happened to you? Did you fall?”

”Scram! What’s it to you if something happened to me?” Young Master Lin glared at Wang Dongyang in annoyance and turned to head for the seat of honor. However, he suddenly stopped in his tracks, his gaze fixed on Jiang Chen: ”How come you’re here?”

Jiang Chen glanced at Lin Cheng and smiled as he spoke, ”Why can’t I be here?”

This Lin Cheng was the same young man whom Jiang Chen had beaten up when he was on his way to save Lin Cheng, and it was unexpected to encounter him here.

”You...” Lin Cheng’s complexion instantly darkened as he pointed at Jiang Chen, then turned to look at Wang Dongyang, ”Is he one of your family’s people?”

Wang Dongyang, somewhat puzzled, replied, ”He’s my brother-in-law, Lin Cheng, what’s the matter?”

”Your brother-in-law!?” Lin Cheng’s eyes widened, and he said fiercely, ”Wang Dongyang, listen to me clearly, your project is doomed, and you’ll never have a chance in this lifetime!”

The Wang family members were all shocked, and Wang Dongyang said in a fluster, ”Lin Cheng, what’s wrong? It’s just... how could this suddenly...”

”All is well? Can’t you see?” Lin Cheng pointed to the bruise on his face, ”This is what your brother-in-law did to me! I’m telling you, unless he kneels before me and apologizes, your project is going nowhere!”

Lin Cheng, stop it! Our family has nothing to do with this waste!” Wang Youchen spoke up urgently.

Wang Dongyang’s mother glared hard at Jiang Chen, ”It’s all because of you, this damned thing. Hurry up and apologize to Lin Cheng, don’t drag our Dongyang down with you.”

”Yes, hurry up and kneel down and apologize to Lin Cheng.”

”Hurry up, don’t drag our family down to misfortune too.”

The Wang family members began to scold Jiang Chen, some even rolled up their sleeves ready to force Jiang Chen to apologize to Lin Cheng.

Jiang Chen, however, remained calm and glanced at Lin Cheng indifferently, speaking impassively, ”Your brother is Lin Guoliang, right? Call him, tell him his younger brother has hurt me and made me feel displeased, and tell him to come and apologize to me immediately. Otherwise, all his investment projects are going to fail.”

The Wang family members were stunned, staring at Jiang Chen as if he were a fool.

”Haha...” Lin Cheng laughed furiously, pointing at Jiang Chen with arrogance, ”Fine, I’ll call my brother right now, I want to see how you’ll make him apologize. Kid, if you don’t leave here on your knees today, I’ll take your surname!”

Jiang Chen smirked with disdain, ”Don’t take my surname, I’d prefer not to have a son like you!”

”You... you just wait.” Lin Cheng glared fiercely at Jiang Chen and took out his mobile phone to make a call.

The Wang family members glared at Jiang Chen in annoyance, but before they could speak, they suddenly realized that if Lin Guoliang came, they could directly apologize to him, and perhaps the project could still be saved.

Thus, the crowd of Wang family members stopped paying attention to Jiang Chen and started to curry favor with Lin Cheng instead.

Wang Dongyang led Lin Cheng to the seat of honor, offering various toasts and apologies.

It wasn’t too long before the door to the private room opened and a figure walked in. As soon as he entered, he scolded, ”Who’s here acting tough with my little brother? I was dining with clients upstairs, who has the nerve?”

”Brother!” Lin Cheng stood up to greet him, ”Brother, it’s the bastard who beat me, he’s right here, and he even had the audacity to say you should apologize.”

”President Lin, you’ve arrived. I’m sorry, my brother-in-law is nothing but trash; please don’t stoop to his level.” Wang Dongyang hurriedly stood up and followed.

Wang Youchen and several others also stood up to greet him, each trying to ingratiate themselves with Lin Guoliang.

”President Lin, please calm down, he’s just a worthless son-in-law who came through marriage, getting angry at him isn’t worth it.”

”Exactly, President Lin, consider him a nobody.”

”Right, right, right, it’s beneath you to deal with him.”

Lin Guoliang glanced at the Wang family members, then turned his head toward the direction the Wang family indicated, and as he looked, he froze on the spot.

”President Lin, we meet again.” Jiang Chen said with a light laugh; they had met before at a Sihai Company gathering, and afterward, Lin Guoliang had visited him several times.

Lin Guoliang shuddered, then turned to Lin Cheng, ”Is he the one you’re talking about?”
