Heavenly Dragon Doctor Son-in-Law-Chapter 55 - 56 Zhao Ruoying, Let’s Wait and See!

The middle-aged woman was none other than Zhao Ruoying.

The Yaolong Group was a corporate behemoth in Jiangzhong. Many influential figures had to schedule appointments a year in advance just for a chance to meet her. These were all major players, far beyond the likes of Jin Yuan and Wang Hu.

"Young Master Jin, I’m quite curious," Zhao Ruoying said, her expression frigid as she stared at Jin Yuan. "Since when did the Jin Group get into the business of murder?"

This left him speechless. Madam Zhao is furious...

The Zhao and Jin families were reasonably well-acquainted. After all, the Jin Group was a respectable enterprise, and he had met Zhao Ruoying on several occasions. Furthermore, the Jin Group even had investment projects from the Yaolong Group. But Madam Zhao was clearly enraged now, which left Jin Yuan completely baffled.

"Aunt Zhao, I was only joking. How could there possibly be a project involving murder?" Jin Yuan bowed with his hands clasped, his posture deeply respectful. "Aunt Zhao, what brings you here? I will certainly do everything in my power to assist you."

"I came to save certain people’s lives," Zhao Ruoying stated slowly, her words heavy with meaning.

Jin Yuan thought for a moment and felt he understood. Zhao Ruoying’s meaning seemed clear enough. The power of his Jin Family was considerable, if not world-shaking. Squashing an insect like this one would be as easy as waving his hand. And all over a little cripple, no less?

"If I hadn’t come, Young Master Jin, you might have died without a grave," Zhao Ruoying suddenly sneered, seeming to read his thoughts.

BOOM!

In an instant, everyone’s eyes went wide. Tang Yuehua and Xuexue instinctively moved to the side, thoroughly confused. Old Master Tang had always considered Tang Yuehua a disgrace, so she had no idea that Qin Long knew Madam Zhao. This revelation left her utterly shocked.

"Aunt Zhao, what are you trying to say?" Jin Yuan asked, his face etched with bewilderment.

Zhao Ruoying simply ignored him and waved a dismissive hand. "If you angered Young Master Qin, you would have ended up without a proper burial," she said slowly.

"Young Master Qin? What Young Master Qin?" Jin Yuan demanded anxiously.

There’s no Young Master Qin here... Could it be this good-for-nothing? I seem to recall Wang Hu saying his name was Qin Long!

Jin Yuan looked at Qin Long in astonishment. Sure enough, Qin Long remained perfectly composed, still sipping his tea as if he paid Jin Yuan no mind whatsoever.

"Young Master Qin, the head of the Zhao Family has arranged a banquet at the Longquan Hotel and insisted that I invite you," Zhao Ruoying said respectfully as she slowly approached Qin Long. She bowed low, her voice deferential.

The next second, the onlookers were stunned once more. The woman’s dress was clearly custom-made, worth at least sixty or seventy thousand. The deep blue necklace and matching bracelet she wore were worth at least several hundred thousand. Furthermore, the bodyguards behind her were clearly top-tier experts.

For a woman of such extraordinary status to show such reverence to a crippled good-for-nothing was astounding. The stark contrast left everyone speechless, their mouths hanging open in shock.

"This...!" Tang Yuehua’s beautiful eyes widened in disbelief. Xuexue, clinging tightly to her mother’s dress, was also dumbstruck by the sight.

The faces of Wang Hu and Jin Yuan turned deathly pale. They had never dreamed that "Young Master Qin" was this violent cripple. Jin Yuan had been planning to hire someone to dispose of the penniless cripple, but he never imagined the man wielded such influence.

BANG!

Wang Hu was so terrified that he collapsed to the floor. He hadn’t expected this cripple to have such a close relationship with Zhao Ruoying. With the Yaolong Group’s power, they could crush him into dust with a single move. And Zhao Ruoying was acting like a mere servant before Qin Long. Could it be that Qin Long has some incredible power and background?

He was drowning in regret. He was used to bullying others, but this time he had truly picked on the wrong person. He had to get Qin Long’s forgiveness as soon as possible, or he was finished.

Madam Zhao is obviously backing him up! Jin Yuan wasn’t a fool; he understood the situation instantly. The Yaolong Group is a corporate titan, but my Jin Family is no pushover. Besides, who doesn’t know a few powerful government officials these days? I have no reason to be afraid.

"Backing him up? That’s not the right way to put it," Zhao Ruoying immediately corrected, waving her hand. How could I possibly be qualified to back Qin Long? In the future, just being able to ride his coattails would be a blessing from the heavens!

Hearing this, Jin Yuan took a deep breath. He relaxed slightly, his expression turning icy. So I shouldn’t clash with the Yaolong Group unless absolutely necessary? He didn’t believe that Zhao Ruoying would actually suppress the entire Jin Family over this cripple. After this quick analysis, Jin Yuan slowly regained his earlier arrogance.

"How could I possibly be worthy of backing Young Master Qin?" Zhao Ruoying’s cold gaze fell on Jin Yuan. "To serve him hand and foot is the greatest honor for the Zhao Family."

"Madam Zhao, what do you mean by that?" Jin Yuan’s face darkened. He clenched his fists, struggling to contain his rage. Is Zhao Ruoying showing the Jin Family no respect at all?

"Whatever Young Master Qin says, goes. The Yaolong Group will see it through to the end!"

Zhao Ruoying’s domineering reply was a slap in Jin Yuan’s face.

Nearby, Tang Yuehua’s mouth fell open, her pretty face a mask of shock. Isn’t Qin Long just a disabled man? At most, he’s someone with some fighting skills. I didn’t ask for his help this time precisely because I was afraid his impulsiveness would bring me harm. After all, in this day and age, strength without power makes life incredibly difficult. But now, it seems he possesses this kind of influence. Even the renowned "Iron Lady," Madam Zhao, is this respectful toward him. It’s truly unbelievable.

"Madam Zhao, you shouldn’t speak in such absolutes," Jin Yuan said after a moment of thought, mustering the courage to face her. The Zhao Family of Jiangzhong was immensely powerful, but he, Jin Yuan, was no soft target. I absolutely can’t allow others to look down on me. If I immediately start fawning and apologizing the moment she appears, who would ever respect the Jin Family again?

"Is Young Master Jin saying you won’t give me, Zhao Ruoying, any face?" Zhao Ruoying’s expression grew heavy as she stared coldly at Jin Yuan.

"Zhao Ruoying, don’t be so arrogant! Your Zhao Family is powerful, but our Jin Family is no pushover. Although the Yaolong Group has invested in some of our projects, it doesn’t mean that I, Jin Yuan, am afraid of you. I hope, Aunt Zhao, that you won’t cause friction between our families over some good-for-nothing," Jin Yuan said, starting with diplomacy before showing his teeth. He was being firm while still trying to give Zhao Ruoying a way out. He assumed that since Zhao Ruoying was a businesswoman, she wouldn’t act irrationally.

But the very next second, Zhao Ruoying’s furious shout echoed through the room.

"What does the Jin Family think it is? At worst, we will simply withdraw all our investments! Young Master Qin is our Zhao Family’s benefactor. Offending him is the same as offending me!" Zhao Ruoying’s tone was chilling as she pointed a finger at Jin Yuan and roared, offering him no courtesy whatsoever.

"Zhao Ruoying!" Jin Yuan gritted his teeth and let out a cold snort. "Fine! We’ll see about that! I refuse to believe you can protect this kid forever!"

Leaving that threat hanging in the air, Jin Yuan turned and stormed away in a rage.
