Final Boss: Urban Physician - Chapter 44

Chapter 44: Extreme Arrogance

After scolding Su Ruoxue, Xiao Wan was proud of herself. Grandfather Tang glanced at her and approached her with his hands behind his back.

“Who are you?” He asked indifferently.

Xiao Wan immediately bowed down.

“Grandfather Tang, my name is Xiao Wan, I’m… I’m Jiajie’s girlfriend.”

Afterwards, she secretly shifted her eyes at Tang Jiajie before shyly lowering her head.

As long as grandpa Tang accepts her, Xiao Wan could really climb the ranks and become a phoenix!

From then on, would anyone in Jiangbei dare treat her with disrespect?

Even if they didn’t spare her the face, they had to give it to the Tang family still!

But…

At this moment, Grandpa Tang slapped her hard across the face.

“Bam—!”

The violent slap sent Xiao Wan flying before harshly landing on the ground. It was so painful she almost fainted.

Tang Jiajie was shocked as he rushed to his grandfather’s side.

“Grandpa, why did you hit Wan?”

Grandfather Tang was merciless. He then kicked Tang Jiajie away with his foot.

“I’ll beat you up, too!”

Everyone present was stunned.

Was the Tang elder crazy? How could he strike his own grandson? Violently, too!

He had almost killed Tang Jiajie with his one kick.

Uncle Tang shuddered, as if he’d seem something bewitching. He then saw Elder Tang walk through the crowd in the direction of Xiao Chen.

Wherever he stepped, the people retreated. Soon, they’d formed a path for Elder Tang.

A few seconds later, Elder Tang was in front of Xiao Chen.

Without minding his status, Elder Tang made a ninety-degree bow to Xiao Chen.

“Mr. Xiao, my deepest apologies, this old man did not teach his children well. Sorry to upset you with their disrespectful antics! Please forgive us!”

As soon as this remark came out, the crowd went so silent you could hear a pin drop.

Who was that? He was the best Chinese medicine master in all of the Yan Kingdom, Elder Tang!

His status and reputation was beyond that of any regular person!

So many high level officials sought his medical expertise.

But today, he had actually bowed down to Xiao Chen, a nameless outsider.

How great an honor was this?

Su Ruoxue took a step back and covered her mouth as her eyes widened in disbelief.

She knew Xiao Chen was strong, but she thought it was only in the martial arts realm!

But Elder Tang was beyond that world; his networks and connections were unparalleled.

At that moment, Su Ruoxue finally realized the truth. She thought she had Xiao Chen all figured out, but realistically, this man was way more than what meets the eye!

It was as if they’d just met.

The most shocked out of everyone was Xiao Wan.

At this moment, she was petrified.

Nobody could be more knowing of Xiao Chen’s past.

Five years ago, the disaster had completely destroyed Xiao Chen. He shouldn’t have been able to turn over.

But now, not only was he back, but he’s undergone a 360-degree change.

Originally, Xiao Wan had thought Xiao Chen was only borrowing Su Ruoxue’s status. But it seems like he didn’t need her at all.

“Xiao Chen, what happened to you?”

She wanted to ask, but the words failed to form at the tip of her tongue.

Xiao Chen was silent as Elder Tang refused to stand straight.

After a while, he began to speak.

“If apologies worked, then why do we need heaven?”

Elder Tang trembled. He understood what Xiao Chen meant.

The spectators were beyond shocked.

This Xiao Chen was too presumptuous, wasn’t he? What kind of status did Elder Tang have? He already personally apologized, which was already a great honor. But Xiao Chen refused to give him the face. Wasn’t that too arrogant?

Tang Jiajie couldn’t contain his anger anymore.

“Hey you, Xiao, don’t think you can be so arrogant because your last name is Xiao! My grandfather has already personally apologized and bowed to you, what more do you want? If you really offend my Tang family, you’ll be reduced to dust!”

“Shut up, you idiot!”

Elder Tang scolded. Unwillingly, Tang Jiajie suppressed his anger. Following, Elder Tang turned his head to look at Xiao Chen and pleaded.

“Mr. Xiao, is there no room to compromise on this?”

“Today if he doesn’t die, your Tang family will have trouble living.”

The short sentence sent chills through everyone present.

Xiao Chen was too cruel! Was he really placing the entire Tang family under his feet?

As long as Elder Tang agreed, the Tang family would be the subject of ridicule in all of Jiangbei for years to come!

Even so, the spectators did not expect Elder Tang to comply. After taking a deep breath, the old man bellowed:

“Guards! Drag out this unfilial pest, Tang Jiajie, and beat him to death!”

“What?”

The spectator’s eyelids jumped suddenly, eyes filled with disbelief.

Has Elder Tang gone crazy?

The second uncle began to speak.

“Dad! Are you joking? Jiajie is your grandson by blood!”

“Close your stinking mouth! Jiajie’s disrespectful behavior is your responsibility, too. From now on, all your work on hand can be transferred over to someone else! The Tang organization from this moment on will have nothing to do with you!”

His words were like a thunderbolt. Uncle Tang shuddered violently on the spot before slumping to the ground on his knees.

He was done. His life was over!

He was clear of Elder Tang’s temper. His words were worth their weight in iron!

Tang Jiajie had gone crazy.

“No! Grandpa, please forgive me, I was wrong, I have learned. Mr. Xiao, Mr. Xiao, I shouldn’t have quarreled with you! Please, please, please, I’m begging you! Please let me go!”

But Xiao Chen was responseless. He watched as the Tang family guards dragged Tang Jiajie away.

Shortly after, a horrified cry came from the outside.

As soon as the sound could be heard, the spectators began to tremble as they stared at Xiao Chen’s proud figure.

They didn’t realize until now how terrifying this figure was.

With one word, he could force Elder Tang to kill his grandson with his own hands. No one could match this power!

Xiao Wan was completely hopeless as well.

Originally she had humiliated this figure, scorned this figure!

But now, Xiao Chen stood on a pedestal that even she couldn’t look up to.

This man was too strong.

At this moment, she felt suffocated and weak. Like a boneless corpse, she was unable to stand up.
