Medic Martial Dragon King

After a cold shower, Jiang Chen got dressed, and while drying his hair, he walked out of the washroom.

”Jiang Chen, why are you taking a bath so early in the morning?” Ye Yuwan sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Jiang Chen with a teasing expression.

Jiang Chen paused for a moment, his face turned red, not knowing what to say.

”Haha, could it be that you were so attracted by the beauty of this great beauty that it made you exuberant so early in the morning!” Ye Yuwan teased, ”I thought you were worse than a beast, but it turns out you are a beast after all!”

Jiang Chen paused again, and thinking back to the situation in the morning, a hint of guilt appeared on his face, thinking that he really was worse than a beast!

”Yu Wan, I...”

After gritting his teeth, Jiang Chen wanted to tell Ye Yuwan about what happened, leaving it to her to deal with.

Noticing the look in Jiang Chen’s eyes, Ye Yuwan suddenly became irate and bit her lip. This guy is fine with everything else, so why is he so dull about these things?

”Oh dear, you, I was just joking with you, don’t you know the joke about being worse than a beast and being a beast? You’re too OUT, right?”

So, Ye Yuwan quickly cut him off. She certainly didn’t want Jiang Chen to expose the matter, otherwise, they would definitely have to deliberately keep their distance, which was not the result Ye Yuwan wanted.

Jiang Chen paused, and then he also remembered the gag about beasts and being worse than beasts.

Seeing that Jiang Chen understood, Ye Yuwan immediately breathed a sigh of relief and gave Jiang Chen a fierce glare, ”I’m not a little girl anymore, of course, I know some things. But what I don’t understand is how you can have no reaction at all, with such a great beauty lying next to you. It should have been more intense, right? Or are you saying that this lady is not beautiful at all and has no attraction for you?”

As she spoke, Ye Yuwan pretended to be puffed up with anger and propped up her body, making the already thin garment she wore somewhat see-through.

Jiang Chen almost had a nosebleed again and nearly had to go take another shower, so he quickly raised his hand and interjected, ”Alright, I was wrong, I’m worse than a beast. Just hurry up and get dressed, we still have important things to do today.”

”Pfft.” Seeing Jiang Chen like this, Ye Yuwan couldn’t help laughing and stopped teasing him. She got dressed and washed up.

After that, Ye Yuwan took Jiang Chen’s hand and they walked toward the door together.

When they reached the hotel lobby, Ye Yuwan whispered, ”Jiang Chen, wait for me a second, I’m going to the restroom.”

”Alright.”

Jiang Chen nodded and pointed towards the entrance, ”I’ll wait for you outside.”

Ye Yuwan nodded and went to the restroom, while Jiang Chen stepped outside and lit a cigarette.

Jiang Chen seldom smoked, and he was smoking this time while continuing to ponder his next step, wanting to plan carefully to achieve his goal of a hundred billion within three years.

”Huh? Jiang Chen?”

Suddenly, a voice of surprise came, and Jiang Chen turned his head to see a woman walking out of the hotel.

”Li Man?!” Jiang Chen recognized the person and was taken aback.

This Li Man was a girlfriend he had met after high school. At that time, Jiang Chen had a hard life, and after finally finding a girlfriend, she despised him for being poor and left him after a short period of time. After that, Jiang Chen had become a live-in son-in-law.

All of that was from years ago, and he did not expect to run into Li Man here today.

However, having been boy and girl friends once, Jiang Chen also felt a wave of nostalgia and was just about to catch up with her. But Li Man looked him up and down and then shook her head with contempt:

”Tell me, Jiang Chen, your life doesn’t seem to be doing so well, still the same as before, with no progress.”

With that, she pointed at herself, like a proud princess, ”I’ve been luckier than you. I’ve met my boyfriend. Now I ride in a BMW, wear branded clothes, look at this watch, worth tens of thousands, my boyfriend Zhang Peng bought it for me. Ah, I guess my hardships have turned to sweet outcomes! But you can’t be envious, my boyfriend works at a startup company and holds shares. There’s a new round of investment happening, and his shares are now worth millions!”

Jiang Chen furrowed his eyebrows.

He found the words increasingly grating as he listened.

What does it mean to have no progress?

And what’s this about suffering being followed by joy?

Is a value of several million that impressive?

”Is that so? Congratulations then,” Jiang Chen said nothing more, clasped his hands in a gesture of respect, even mustering a smile, yet within he sighed, lamenting how the world had so few who could see through to his heart.

At this moment, some people leaving the hotel overheard Li Man and Jiang Chen’s conversation and began to appraise Jiang Chen.

”Haha, is this a case of ex-boyfriend meeting ex-girlfriend?”

”Lucky that girl left him, look, he’s so shabbily dressed, probably no one wants him, right?”

”This guy is actually quite handsome, but in today’s society, being handsome can’t fill your stomach!”

After sizing up Jiang Chen, people whispered among themselves, some even starting to mock him.

Hearing the crowd’s comments, Li Man grew even more arrogant, lifting her head to glare at Jiang Chen: ”Jiang Chen, looking at you now, you must be doing poorly. Do you want me to ask my boyfriend to find you a spot in his company?”

”Haha, no need, I have a job of my own,” Jiang Chen maintained his smile, his impatience towards Li Man’s show-off growing. If it wasn’t for waiting for Ye Yuwan, he would have left already.

”Oh, you’re not even appreciative?”

Li Man curled her lip: ”You’re in such a state, yet still playing the nobleman, what’s the point? I’m so glad I didn’t stick with you, otherwise I’d be drinking the northwest wind every day.”

”You’re not even worthy to drink the wind with Brother Chen!”

Before Jiang Chen could reply, a voice tinged with coldness came, and Ye Yuwan walked out of the hotel, hooking her arm around Jiang Chen’s: ”With your materialistic attitude, you don’t deserve a boyfriend like my Chen Ge.”

Li Man froze.

She was utterly astounded by Ye Yuwan’s beauty.

Such beauty made her seem leagues beneath!

After taking another look at Ye Yuwan, she incredulously stared at Jiang Chen: How could this guy find such a beautiful girlfriend?

”That girl is so beautiful!”

”Yeah, no wonder he didn’t want the other one. These two are not even comparable!”

”Exactly, who cares about being dumped when you have such a pretty girlfriend? I’d be fine with being dirt poor!”

”Right, what’s wrong with being poor? A beautiful girlfriend is enough!”

A crowd checking out of the hotel marveled at Ye Yuwan one after another.

Upon hearing the crowd’s discussion, Li Man couldn’t save face any longer. She shot Jiang Chen a vicious glare, then turned and quickly walked away from the hotel entrance.

Jiang Chen shook his head with a wry smile. He exchanged a glance with Ye Yuwan, shared a slight grin, and got into the car, driving towards Xin Xi Village.

...

Arriving at the base of Weishou Company, Jiang Chen and company exited the vehicle but couldn’t help being taken aback.

For next to them, Li Man was stepping down from a car.
