Divine Doctor and His CEO Wife-Chapter 150: Undercurrents Surge

Jiang Baifeng smiled fawningly. "Mr. Xing, this is my son, Jiang Tianquan, and this is my wife, Zhu Baixi!" He then glanced at Zhu Baixi and the others, chiding softly, "Why haven’t you greeted Mr. Xing yet?"

Zhu Baixi and the others hastily bowed.

Xing Zhanlong waved his hand and said indifferently, "There’s no need for these tedious formalities."

"Let’s go inside."

The atmosphere in the living room was somewhat oppressive. Xing Zhanlong spoke little, and the others dared not speak freely for fear of displeasing him.

After a moment, Xing Zhanlong set down his teacup and said coldly, "I heard the attack failed? Could it be that my masterpiece can’t even deal with an injured Leng Baiyu?"

Hearing his sharp question, everyone’s hearts pounded with fear. They lowered their heads, not daring to utter a sound.

Jiang Baifeng explained cautiously, "This time, she only escaped because her junior, Chen Xiao, was present. He has thwarted our plans multiple times."

"That’s right!" Jiang Tianquan quickly chimed in. "Our transaction on the cruise was also interrupted because of him. This guy keeps ruining our plans; he’s our nemesis! And because of him, my brother..."

"I don’t want to hear your explanations." Xing Zhanlong’s tone was frigid. "I only want results."

"Over the years, the Jiang Family could not have developed to this point without my support. I placed so much trust in you, and this is how you repay me?"

Hearing his question, the few of them lowered their heads in guilt.

Zhu Baixi, however, was secretly calculating. If Chen Xiao were to face off against Xing Zhanlong, what would his chances be? In the end, she shook her head in despair. Xing Zhanlong is one of the most powerful people in the Divine Land. Although Chen Xiao has some skill, he’s no match for him. Oh, my dear man, my dear man... I’m afraid you’re finished this time... Thinking of the pleasure Chen Xiao had brought her, Zhu Baixi couldn’t help but feel a pang of regret.

"I hear Jiang Tianyi is now completely disfigured and bedridden. Take me to see him." Xing Zhanlong rose to his feet.

Jiang Baifeng and Jiang Tianquan were stunned by the unexpected attention. Why would this great man suddenly take an interest in Jiang Tianyi?

"What, are you unwilling?" Xing Zhanlong said lightly.

"Mr. Xing, please." Jiang Baifeng immediately led the way, his demeanor extremely humble. If any outsider were to witness this scene, they would be utterly shocked. After all, Jiang Baifeng was considered a top-tier figure in Jinling City and even the entire Jiangnan Province. In front of Xing Zhanlong, however, he was as obedient as a dog.

When he saw Jiang Tianyi lying on the bed wrapped head to toe in bandages, a pang of heartache flashed in Jiang Baifeng’s eyes, followed by a surge of intense killing intent. That bastard Chen Xiao... to think he did this to my son! If I don’t get revenge for this, what right do I have to call myself a father?

Xing Zhanlong, however, simply gazed at Jiang Tianyi and spoke indifferently, "Not bad. He meets my standards. Since that’s the case, I’ll give the Jiang Family a chance to redeem themselves."

As he spoke, a vial appeared in his hand. "This is an enhanced gene potion. Although it’s an inferior product rejected by my organization, it’s a substance outsiders would kill to obtain.

"After taking it, a person can gain tremendous power.

"However, there is a risk of death.

"Right now, he’s neither human nor ghost and serves no purpose living in this world. You might as well put waste to good use. Of course, whether to use it or not is up to you."

Jiang Baifeng and Jiang Tianquan’s hearts sank. Although Jiang Tianyi is a cripple now, at least he’s still alive! But if he uses this enhanced gene potion, he could die... They certainly didn’t want Jiang Tianyi to use the potion.

However, upon hearing Xing Zhanlong’s words, Jiang Tianyi’s eyes suddenly lit up, blazing with venomous hatred. He struggled to sit up in bed and rasped, "I... am willing to try!"

Xing Zhanlong nodded slightly and said with indifference, "Not bad. You still have some backbone. You have them to thank for your current state! If you can survive, you will be completely reborn—even your skin will recover... I’ll give you a chance for revenge at the upcoming Sail Raising Conference. You will fight for the Jiang Family!"

Meanwhile, the forces of Qin Cang, Qiao Yu, and Wei Ziheng had already gathered.

Qiao Yu had been locked up for two days, and his father had to personally pull some strings to barely get him out. Even now, he still looked dazed, a clear sign that Li Buyi had "taken good care" of him.

As for Qin Cang, he was still covered in bandages and looked to be in a sorry state.

Wei Ziheng was unharmed, but his sister, Wei Ziqing, hadn’t been so lucky. She was poisoned by her own creation and nearly had her face ruined. She was still in the hospital.

The mere mention of Chen Xiao made all three of them grit their teeth in fury, wishing they could tear him to pieces and feed him to the dogs.

Qiao Yu said coldly, "Young Master Qin, rest assured. For this Sail Raising Conference, Hongmen has made full preparations and will wholeheartedly cooperate with the Qin Family to secure one of the spots."

Qin Cang nodded. "The new port is too important; even my Qin Family wants a piece of the action! If I, Qin Cang, can secure it, my family will surely see me in a new light! Ziheng, all our preparations have led to this moment. This time, it’s all on you. I hope you won’t disappoint me."

"Young Master Qin, Young Master Qiao, I will definitely give it my all," Wei Ziheng hastily pledged his loyalty.

Over the years, Wei Ziheng had thrived purely because he had latched onto Qin Cang’s coattails. Although the playboy Qin Cang didn’t hold a high position within the Zhonghai Qin Family, it was enough. If Wei Ziheng could secure this project, his standing within the Qin Family would rise to another level, which would be perfect. He also stood to gain immense benefits.

Among the three, Qin Cang and Qiao Yu were partners, while Wei Ziheng was purely a pawn with no real status. He even had to send his own sister to get close to Qiao Yu and curry his favor. Now, however, Wei Ziqing was lying in a hospital bed, and it was uncertain if her looks would ever recover. This filled Wei Ziheng with hatred for Chen Xiao, a man he had never even met.

He had also investigated Chen Xiao and heard that he had recently gotten very close to Zhang Yaqing. Since Wei Ziheng had always considered Zhang Yaqing his private reserve, his heart was already in turmoil.

That Chen Xiao fellow has some skill. If I really want to kill him, I’ll have to use Qin Cang and Qiao Yu. Seeing how much the two of them hated Chen Xiao, he couldn’t help but hatch a plan to kill with a borrowed knife.

During the meal, he casually brought up Chen Xiao again, secretly fanning the flames to deepen the other two’s resentment until they both wanted the man dead.

"I hear Chen Xiao’s wife is a famous local beauty from our Yuncheng City, with an icy demeanor and unparalleled looks. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

"If you two young masters could take him down, perhaps you could even snatch this exquisite beauty for yourselves and have a taste of an ice queen," Wei Ziheng said with a smile.
