Divine Doctor and His CEO Wife-Chapter 365: The Solution to the Riddle!

"I don’t want to waste time talking to you. I’m good-tempered, but my old man isn’t." Chen Xiao sneered, "Don’t make him angry, the consequences are serious."

Su Linger took a deep breath, feeling more and more that this guy was getting smug!

But, given the current situation, what could she do?

She pleaded humbly, "Chen Xiao, we’re at least acquaintances. Could you put in a good word with the old immortal? I’m begging you."

"No!" Chen Xiao coldly refused.

Su Linger clenched her fists tightly.

Angry, really too angry!

But thinking of the Su Family’s current precarious situation, if the old man’s illness didn’t improve, the Su Family would certainly fall into an unprecedented crisis.

She kept reminding herself in her mind.

Endure humiliation for a greater cause!

Endure humiliation for a greater cause!!

She forced a smile, "Chen Xiao, for Ruge’s sake, could you say a few good words to the old immortal for me?"

Chen Xiao’s lips curled sarcastically, "Lu Rugao doesn’t like me. If she knew you were using her to gain favor with me, what do you think she’d think?"

"You—" Su Linger was about to explode with anger. How could this guy be so impervious?!

She gritted her teeth and suppressed her anger, "As long as the old immortal is willing to save my grandfather, our Su Family is willing to offer five billion in medical fees!"

"Do you think I lack money?" Chen Xiao had an expression of regarding money as dirt, "Don’t forget, if Lu Rugao hadn’t sacrificed herself, the hundreds of billions your Su Family invested would have ended up in my pocket!"

Su Linger’s face turned pale. This guy never followed the usual rules in doing things. Money might really not entice him at all.

Thinking of this, Su Linger gritted her teeth, "As long as you’re willing to help me, I’m willing to pay any price!"

"Including... myself!"

This time, she was going all out.

"I’m not interested in you..."

Chen Xiao hadn’t finished speaking when an elderly voice came from inside, "Okay, I agree to this matter. Once it’s done, you will become my disciple and marry me!"

With these words, Su Linger saw an old man wearing a Taoist robe, with a beard and an immortal demeanor, appearing at the door, none other than Chen Xiao’s master, Dao Xuanzi.

Chen Xiao’s face turned dark on the spot, "Old man, who asked you to make decisions for me?"

"This little girl is not bad, fair-skinned and beautiful, and her figure is also exquisite. You won’t lose out marrying her." Dao Xuanzi winked at Chen Xiao.

Su Linger looked utterly desperate; marrying this guy was no different from killing her.

However, since she had already spoken, she couldn’t backtrack.

If she did, the old immortal would certainly get angry and wouldn’t save her grandfather!

"Second Sis, maybe we should just leave." Su Zhengkang was anxious on the spot, "This guy is nothing good. If you really give yourself to him, your life is over. I don’t believe no one else can cure our grandfather!"

He couldn’t watch his sister jump into the fire pit.

But Su Linger bit her lip, "Old immortal, I agree with you!"

To save her grandfather, for the Su Family, even if she had to sacrifice herself, what did it matter? As a member of the Su Family, she had been enjoying the honor and convenience brought by the family for over twenty years. It was time for her to contribute to the family now!

"Little girl, then it’s a deal." The old man chuckled, turning to Chen Xiao, "You brat, since she’s agreed, go to the Su Family and work your magic to heal her grandfather. I’m too lazy to go down the mountain."

"Oh, and remember, get the medical fees before saving him."

Chen Xiao was speechless, "You indecent old thing, making me go to heal someone, you also want me to be a stud?"

"I’m doing this for your good. Anyway, just find me a few more daughter-in-law disciples and expand the family; who knows, maybe my Hidden Gate will rise again someday!"

Su Linger quickly looked at Chen Xiao, her face blushing, "I can give myself to you."

"Forget it, forget it!" Chen Xiao waved his hand, "For Lu Rugao’s sake, I’ll be benevolent and help you this time, but forget about sacrificing yourself."

"I’ll choose to take the five billion, have your Su Family prepare the money."

Su Linger was stunned. As the eldest daughter of the Su Family, born of noble descent, with top-notch beauty, she agreed to give herself to him, and he actually chose the five billion?

Blind dog!

She cursed silently, feeling very unhappy inside.

Chen Xiao couldn’t be bothered with her complicated thoughts, shooing her away like a fly, "You should go down the mountain. I’ll come down tomorrow, and if needed, I’ll call you to pick me up."

Yet in front of Dao Xuanzi, Su Linger didn’t dare to argue and bade farewell politely.

Meanwhile.

At the mountaintop, in the courtyard.

Chen Xiao returned to find Leng Baiyu already sitting there, sipping hot tea.

Zhao Xingyu didn’t even dare to breathe heavily. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

Though their cultivation levels were similar, the aloof and cold temperament of Leng Baiyu, coupled with the aura of authority she carried, suppressed Zhao Xingyu thoroughly.

Seeing Chen Xiao, Leng Baiyu’s tone was teasing, "Explain yourself, who is this again? It’s only been two or three days, and you’re already flirting with a new girl, quite impressive!"

Dao Xuanzi, however, looked proud, "As expected of my prized disciple, quite reminiscent of my style in the past."

Seeing their misunderstanding, Chen Xiao had no choice but to honestly explain Zhao Xingyu’s background.

Upon hearing that Zhao Xingyu was from Kunlun, both Dao Xuanzi and Leng Baiyu showed a trace of astonishment in their eyes.

"Kunlun Qinglan Sect, one of the Lower Four Sects among the Eight Hidden Sects, right?" Dao Xuanzi looked at Zhao Xingyu, chuckling, "Little girl, are you Ren Qianqiu’s direct disciple from that guy?"

Hearing this, Zhao Xingyu was astonished, "You actually know my master?"

An old man from the Mortal World, knowing her master, a figure considered significant in the Kunlun Realm! This was incredibly unbelievable to Zhao Xingyu!

"An old acquaintance." Dao Xuanzi said calmly.

However, as he looked at Zhao Xingyu’s face, his expression became a bit grave, "Little girl, your master that old thing is not a good person, you’d better be careful."

Hearing this, Zhao Xingyu snapped angrily, "My master treats me like his own. I have been an orphan since childhood, and my master is like my father. I won’t allow you to slander him!"

Dao Xuanzi only smiled faintly at her words, "I’m just giving you a heads-up. You’ll understand what I mean in the future. Alright, go to the side now, I need to have a private word with my two disciples."

Zhao Xingyu felt a bit indignant, "You old man, why do you only half-explain?"

"Even if I explained, you wouldn’t believe me, so what’s the point?" Dao Xuanzi waved his hand dismissively.

Zhao Xingyu had no choice but to leave.

Dao Xuanzi looked at Chen Xiao and said, "I’ve heard from your senior sister. This time, during the trip to the Philippines, her source was damaged, and recovery is quite difficult, but it’s not impossible."

"However, the solution might lie with you."

Hearing this, Chen Xiao was taken aback, "With me? What should I do now?"
