Final Boss: Urban Physician - Chapter 56
Chapter 56: Return of The King
“What did you say?”
Third Uncle couldn’t help but gasp. His skin has turned pale white.
First Uncle glanced at him, irritated.
“Why are you so worked up? Look how easily scared you are! It’s only one Xiao Chen, does he really scare you that much?”
“Gulp!”
Third Uncle gulped and carefully said:
“Big bro, you… you’re not joking with me, right? It’s really Xiao Chen?”
“Xiao Wan wouldn’t joke with me about that kind of stuff. But so what if Xiao Chen is back? He’s just a crippled dog! If he wants to catch up to us, it’ll take him the rest of his life, even more so if he wants revenge.”
Third Uncle wiped the sweat from his forehead and chuckled.
“That’s true. He should really know his worth. Not to mention that he’s got nothing to his name now. Even if he was a young master, what can he do? In front of us, he’s only a puny ant.”
First Uncle and Third Uncle began to laugh lightheartedly.
Indeed, they were no longer themselves from five years ago. First Uncle’s company had a market worth of over five billion, while the Third Uncle’s company was worth three billion . Combined, they were solid billionaires!
Who could rival such a powerful organization?
First Madam Xiao and Third Auntie continued to nibble on their sunflower seeds while lazily glancing around at their surroundings.
“Look at this group of filthy peasants. Being next to them is dragging down our reputation! If it weren’t for that stupid old man’s birthday, I would never want to return to this filthy village.”
“Big Sister, we’re just here to make them look better. If we didn’t come, some heartless people might start rumors and ruin our families’ reputations. That wouldn’t be worth it at all! After all, we are upper-class citizens now. Our reputation has to be preserved!”
“Hmph. Oh well, I will tolerate this lunch for the sake of money. After we eat, I’m going back to the city no matter what. I can’t stay in this sh*t place any longer!”
She paused for a moment before continuing.
“Speaking of which, this old man really is stubborn! Look at how he treats your husband and Old Three, as if he’s above them. What does he have to flaunt? In the past he never treated his second son that way.”
“Yeah, between the two of our families, who doesn’t have more money than what Second Brother had? This old thing is really getting dementia!”
As she spoke, a black Rolls-Royce slowly approached them.
Seeing the vehicle, the two wives’ eyes instantly lit up.
“Huh! A Rolls-Royce! Could it be our family’s business partner? I have to get Xiao here immediately!”
“I have to tell Old Three to welcome them!”
Anyone who drove a Rolls-Royce was worth a lot. Greeting them and receiving them will benefit both of their companies immensely!
First Uncle and Third Uncle naturally also saw the vehicle. The two had smiles on their faces as they fixed up their clothes and hurriedly headed over to receive them.
“I don’t know which boss this is, but he’s giving us so much face! Look how fast they’ve arrived. And in a Rolls-Royce, too!”
“Come on, let’s go receive them. There will be more bosses later. Us brothers have to show that old man our status! And our influence!”
“That’s right.”
The two families hurriedly approached, their children following closely behind.
If they can follow their fathers and solidify their connections, all the accumulated contacts will result in great wealth!
The entire family ushered over to the Rolls-Royce, but the car ignored all of them as it continued to drive.
“Hey, hey, hey!”
The mob quickly jumped out of the way.
“Which big boss is this? What’s going on?”
“Yeah, do they not have eyes? Hubby, you have to scold him for this later!”
First Uncle’s face was gloomy.
“I know, I know. Let’s see who he is first!”
The Rolls-Royce pulled up in front of the Xiao household’s gate. Grandpa Xiao and the other villagers were very doubtful.
At this time, a little girl with skin the shade of pink jade slowly stepped out of the car wearing a princess dress.
She was carrying a painting in her hand as she timidly asked:
“Is this… the Xiao family home?”
The bystanders were startled. Grandpa Xiao nodded his head.
“Yes! This is the Xiao family. You… whose family do you belong to?”
The girl handed over the painting in her hand.
“I’m here to celebrate Great Grandpa’s birthday. My name is Xiao Ziyi!”
Grandpa Xiao felt a jolt in his chest as he lifted a trembling hand to receive Ziyi’s painting. The familiar scroll made his pupils shrink.
The ancestral heirloom of the Xiao family had been destroyed along with his grandson’s family and was spread to the public.
With the death of his son and grandson, the old man felt he had already died inside. He no longer cared for the family heirloom.
Yet today, the treasure has returned!
Then that must mean…
“Child, who… who’s your dad?”
Grandpa Xiao anxiously asked.
Xiao Ziyi opened her eyes wide and cutely said:
“My dad’s name is Xiao Chen!”
“Xiao… Xiao Chen!”
Grandfather Xiao began to tremble. At this moment, a figure wearing a black trench coat slowly alighted from the other side of the Rolls-Royce.
When his figure appeared, everyone was silent like water.
It’s been several years, but his stature was still the same.
He had blade-like eyebrows and handsome facial features. His skin was pale, complemented by a pair of confident eyes.
Only, he seemed to be calmer and more sensible compared to five years ago. There was also an indescribable momentum about him.
“Grandpa! Accept your grandson’s deepest apologies for being late.”
Grandpa Xiao was trembling as he approached Xiao Chen step by step. Soon, his eye bags turned red.
He reached out an old leathery hand to squish Xiao Chen’s cheeks, unable to contain his tears.
“You… Are you really Xiao Chen? You’re back?”
Xiao Chen’s eyes started to swell as well.
“Grandpa, it’s me. I’m really back!”
Grandpa Xiao wiped away his tears and clutched onto Xiao Chen’s hand excitedly.
“Amazing! It’s good that you’re back! Good you’re back! My dear grandson, all your grandpa has been praying for in this lifetime is for your good health. Thank the heavens for opening their eyes and leaving my son who had such a bitter life with an heir. The heavens have mercy!”
The villagers were frozen for a moment, but they slowly approached one after the other to greet Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen instructed Qi Sha to take the car away and began greeting the other villagers.
First Uncle Xiao and Third Uncle were silent at this moment, still in shock.
Xiao Chen was back, and he was driving a Rolls-Royce!
