Medical Sage

Chen Fei was about to say something, but Shanshan rolled her eyes and said, ”Alright, alright. Do you really think you’re a billionaire worth tens of billions? If Liu Hui says he’s treating, let him treat then. After all, he’s got money. You see, I never fight him over that. Hehe.”

Seeing Shanshan say this, Chen Fei just chuckled and shut his mouth. It was just a meal, after all. If you don’t compete for it, you don’t compete.

Instead, Apel couldn’t help but blush and giggled, looking at Chen Fei. She found it amusing on his behalf, because she knew that under Brother Fei’s wing alone, the Brad Family’s assets amounted to tens of billions. Not to mention, there were things she wasn’t even aware of.

So, when Brother Fei said earlier, ’barely worth tens of billions,’ it truly wasn’t a joke. But right now, nobody believes it, hehe...

”Let’s go, let’s go, we’re heading to Triumph Empire Mansion. Liu Hui, did you bring your car?” Shanshan clamored to head out for the meal.

But just at that moment, Liu Hui suddenly furrowed his brow and said, ”Uh-oh…”

”Uh-oh what?” Shanshan asked, puzzled.

”I brought the car, but they’re two four-seater sports cars, and there’s stuff in the back. It seems like there isn’t enough room for three people. How about I give someone a call to come pick you up, Chen Fei?” Liu Hui said apologetically, furrowing his brow.

”Then I’ll go with Brother Fei. We’ll take a cab there.” Apel, hearing this, immediately hugged Chen Fei’s arm tightly and said.

She’d been waiting a long time for Chen Fei to come find her, for three years now, so how could she bear to be apart from him?

”Hey, hey, hey... Liu Hui, are you doing this on purpose? You’re too stingy. Even if he’s a rival in love, you should be fair. I despise you... Can’t you toss out those things first?” Shanshan also frowned and said.

”No, you forgot those things were what you asked me to buy, just last time…” Liu Hui said with a wry smile.

”Ah!”

Shanshan screamed, and her face grew hot all at once, turning a deep shade of red.

”Ahem... Uh, ahem…” Shanshan’s face was full of embarrassment as she blushed. She didn’t know where to look with her eyes, and awkwardly said to Chen Fei, ”Sorry, why don’t you take a cab there yourself? In this hot weather, it’s not really appropriate for Apel to wait for you at the roadside. Our school’s a bit remote, and taxis are quite scarce.”

There was something else she didn’t have the courage to say. Why sit around not using Liu Hui’s sports car and go take a cab instead? You’re a gorgeous lady, why go through this trouble for no reason?

Anyway, even if absence makes the heart grow fonder, it’s not like they won’t see each other later.

”I!” Apel wasn’t up for negotiation. She pouted and resolutely refused.

Hot weather? So what? Not to mention she’s not actually afraid of the heat; Brother Fei used to teach her cultivation. Even if she were just an ordinary person who feared the heat, she would definitely choose to stick close to Brother Fei.

If Brother Fei suddenly disappeared, what would she do? Who would she cry to?

Seeing the situation, Chen Fei laughed helplessly and quickly said, ”I also drove here myself. If there’s not enough space, Apel can just ride in my car.”

”You drove here?” Liu Hui looked at Chen Fei, dumbfounded.

Even Shanshan was stunned for a while, and then she looked at Chen Fei with a peculiar expression: ”Are you from Capital City?”

”No.” Chen Fei shook his head.

”Then are you kidding us? This is the Capital City. Even if you have money to buy a car, what about the license plate? Don’t tell me you managed to get a plate too? How is that possible…” Shanshan looked at him as if saying, ’You’re just boasting,’ and despised him.

There’s no choice; Chen Fei’s accent clearly wasn’t a Capital City accent, and his whole demeanor and attire didn’t match that of a doctor. Plus, he’d previously introduced himself as a doctor... So many factors, so many elements combined.

The character he’s portraying would definitely be someone belonging to the mid or upper echelon of ordinary people, perhaps earning hundreds of thousands a year — and that’s being generous. For such a person to say that they can settle in Capital City and own a car isn’t that a global joke?

Not to mention Shanshan’s disbelief, even Liu Hui felt it was a bit absurd.

”Chen Fei, why don’t we wait here with you? I’ll call someone to bring a car over. It shouldn’t take too long, about half an hour should be enough.”

A moment later, Liu Hui forced a smile and said.

He knew how to handle situations, and pretty well at that, considering Chen Fei’s ’integrity’ and smoothing over the scenario. Forgetting ’he is a rival’ for a moment, he could be considered a friend with decent character.

If it were another successful young entrepreneur or middle-aged wealthy millionaire, hearing Chen Fei boast like this, even slightly mocking him in return would be a courtesy.

Some might not hesitate to tear him apart without courtesy, and that wouldn’t be unusual.

”Indeed, Chen Fei, it’s no fun to keep joking around like this. How about we wait for Liu Hui to have someone come get us?”

Shanshan also rolled her eyes at Chen Fei.

Chen Fei heard this and was naturally amused and exasperated.

”Shanshan, Liu Hui, what’s with you two? Brother Fei said he drove here, so he definitely drove here. Why would he lie to you?” Apel puffed her cheeks indignantly, standing up for Chen Fei.

”Let’s go; my car is parked outside.” Chen Fei also smiled wryly and shook his head, pulling Apel along towards the library exit. Generally, at times like this, showing the goods was truly convincing.

”Are we really going out?”

Seeing Chen Fei pull Apel directly outside, Shanshan muttered with a suspicious look and followed: ”Hey, Chen Fei, we were just joking. Why are you taking it so seriously? Hey, you didn’t really drive here, did you?”

”Why don’t you take a look and find out?” Chen Fei replied with a wave of his hand, back facing Shanshan.

Seeing this, Liu Hui frowned but still followed along.

...

Outside Gate 2 of Capital Media University, luxury cars gathered in a dazzling display.

At this moment, an old security guard who has worked here for over a decade was slightly tipsy, bragging to a new colleague.

”Let me tell you, I may be bragging, but after over ten years here, I haven’t learned much else except for this one skill. Just a glance at any car, and I can tell you its origins…”

Holding a Red Star Erguotou, the old guard Old Man Zheng staggered ahead, pointing at a car with two Rs with a proud expression: ”Like this one, recognize it? Rolls-Royce, from Rolls-Royce Company, United Kingdom, each worth at least 40 to 50 million, and this isn’t a regular model either—it looks like a special custom invite. The Capital City is home to wealthy people—this car must be worth 70 to 80 million…”

”70 to 80 million? My heavens, I’ve heard plenty of rich folks like to visit our media university. If I were a woman, I’d jump into bed with a car like this!” said a new guard with a pockmarked face and a sleazy expression.

”You? Forget it, with your looks you’d waste a trip to Thailand, probably wouldn’t catch anyone’s eye. Hey, Brother Zheng, what’s with that Audi license plate over there? All zeros—is it fake?”

Another guard first sneered in disdain and then suddenly noticed an Audi parked alone nearby, puzzled.

”What, what? A license plate with all zeros?”

Who would have thought Old Man Zheng would shiver at these words, eyes wide, staring fixedly at the Audi car, gasping and shivering: ”No, no way? Has the Great General come to this place?”

”Great General?” The two new guards beside him looked confused, asking, ”Brother Zheng, what Great General?”

But this time Old Man Zheng shivered, pursed his lips, sobered up, didn’t answer, and instead briskly turned to leave: ”Why ask so many questions? Let’s go, let’s go and patrol.”

Meanwhile, Chen Fei and the group also emerged from Gate 2.

”Hey, hey, Chen Fei, where exactly are you leading us? Where’s your car? Can’t you see I’m wearing high heels? My feet are hurting.” Shanshan complained behind with an aggrieved expression.

”Who told you to be so silly? Going out for a meal, why wear high heels?” Liu Hui said behind her.

”You think I want to? It’s because of Apel… look how tall she is. If I don’t wear them, I’d look short. How can that be?” Shanshan said matter-of-factly.

Bear in mind, to feel taller in front of Apel, she had employed all sorts of tricks so that Apel wouldn’t wear high heels for a couple of years, whereas she wore them every day naturally.

Liu Hui was naturally speechless hearing this. At this moment, his peripheral vision suddenly caught sight of a particularly conspicuous Audi car, leaving him stunned.

”Hey, what’s up with you? Why did you suddenly stop walking?” Shanshan asked puzzledly.

”No, look at that car, damn, is that a General’s Audi?” Liu Hui pointed, hand trembling, at the Audi with zero license plate notches ahead, swallowing and shivering.

Given his status, he obviously knew how terrifying such a car was. Not even a regular general could get in one…

”General’s Audi? What is that? It sounds impressive. But this car does look quite imposing—not even other cars dare park nearby?” Shanshan’s mischievous eyes showed a flicker of awe.

Consider universities like theirs, Capital Media University, nationally renowned—with limited parking spaces even outdoors, demand far outstrips supply.

Let alone now, with so much space around for parking, yet no one dares to park near it?

”Isn’t that obvious? This is a General’s car! Do you understand what that implies? It’s for Lieutenant General and above, and only themselves can qualify for this car… A Lieutenant General coming here must mean he has grandchildren studying here, right?” Liu Hui mumbled, eyes flashing with envy.

That’s a Lieutenant General! Across Huaxia, how many now qualify for that position? Everyone there is a celebrated hero, a super aggressive figure.

Even with his assets, a billionaire, this is his first time seeing such a car. He’s truly opened his eyes today!
