Heavenly Dragon Doctor Son-in-Law-Chapter 63 - 64: The Deterrent Power of the Peerless Golden Dragon Card!
Tang Xuewu’s face was flushed with shame. Listening to the endless mockery around her, she was utterly disappointed in Qin Long. She had trusted him so much, yet he had deceived her again. Mom was right. It’s a worthless card, and I was the only one willing to be fooled by him.
Seeing Tang Xuewu’s eyes well up with tears, Qin Long hastily explained, "I just remembered! The card’s permissions must not be activated. Why don’t we try a larger bank?"
The attendant sneered at him. "Nonsense. We partner with the top enterprise in Jiangtian Province, Flying Dragon Bank. Their Jiangzhong headquarters is right here, with over fifty branches under it, not to mention more than ten thousand branches across Jiangtian Province." Her voice dripped with disdain as she continued, "You’re hilarious. ’Permissions not high enough?’ Are you more powerful than the Mayor of Jiangzhong City? Even he has withdrawn money from here!"
The woman seemed to be venting her frustration at being toyed with by Qin Long, and her words prompted the entire hall to erupt into scornful laughter. To everyone present, Qin Long’s excuse was a complete joke.
"Get your owner," Qin Long said, his voice tinged with anger. "You’ve probably never seen a card like this before."
"Sorry to disappoint you, but he doesn’t meet with anyone spending less than five hundred thousand," the attendant said dismissively, crossing her arms impatiently.
The surrounding crowd roared with laughter again.
Tang Xuewu’s anger was boiling over. For years, because of Qin Long, she had been the laughingstock of Jiangzhong City and a disgrace to the Tang Family. Now, she was being humiliated here all over again, and someone was even recording it. She had trusted him, yet he had just played with her emotions. I was actually a little touched a moment ago, but reality just slapped me hard across the face! My dignity is gone! Tears streamed down her cheeks against her will.
"It’s fine if we don’t have money! We can earn it slowly," she cried, her eyes filled with sadness. "Why must you suffer just to save face? I trusted you so much. I even tried to accept you, but you’ve lied to me again and again. Qin Long, you’ve disappointed me so much."
With that, she shook off Qin Long’s hand and turned to leave.
"Xuewu, it’s not like that," Qin Long tried to explain, but she mercilessly cut him off.
"Because of you, I’ve had to endure doubts from Grandpa and Mom. I’m bullied and looked down on by the Tang Family, and mocked by everyone else.
"I’m so tired these days. Can’t you just have some pity on me?"
Sobbing, Tang Xuewu ran out of the store.
Seeing her disappointed figure retreat, a cold aura emanated from Qin Long. The clearance level on this card is too high; any bank in the world is supposed to give it supreme treatment. But after my three years of living like a fool, its privileges were automatically locked for protection. They have to be reactivated. It’s a shame this small city of Jiangzhong doesn’t have anyone who can even recognize it.
The surrounding people hurled insults at Qin Long. "Haha, I’m dying! Did that beautiful woman actually get duped into coming here?"
"He has no money but still wants to act rich. How ridiculous!"
"And he had the gall to boast about transferring ten million just like that. Shameless!"
Qin Long’s gaze fell upon the female attendant, his eyes glacial. "Get your boss. Now," he commanded, his voice utterly frigid. If Xuewu misunderstands me again, she might never forgive me. I have to solve this as quickly as possible.
"Are you deaf?" the attendant shot back, pointing a finger at him. "I already told you, our boss doesn’t see broke losers like you!"
Just then, a middle-aged woman in a coffee-colored dress suit rushed over. In her panic, she bumped into several customers as she hurried inward.
"Fine. Your jewelry store can shut down," Qin Long said grimly, picking the Golden Dragon Card up from the floor.
"Ooh, I’m so scared," the attendant sneered, her expression full of disdain.
Hearing this, the middle-aged woman’s eyebrows shot up, and she approached Qin Long. As the owner of this jewelry store and the wife of the President of Flying Dragon Bank, I’d like to see who dares cause a scene here!
"Sir, why are you so angry?" she asked with a smile.
"Manager Ping!" all the attendants whispered, standing up straight as they saw the woman.
Manager Ping waved them off and focused on Qin Long. In the next second, however, her expression changed dramatically. Her eyes flew wide, and her jaw dropped in utter shock. Stumbling backward, she stammered in terror, "Young Master... is this card yours? The Peerless... The Peerless..."
She knew exactly what this card signified; her husband had told her about it himself. At this sight, the mockery from the crowd died instantly. The rude attendant was equally stunned. Manager Ping is the owner of this store! She’s also the wife of the President of Flying Dragon Bank! When have we ever seen her look so shocked?
Xuping ignored everyone, slowly approaching the counter and staring intently at the golden card Qin Long had placed on it.
Qin Long watched her, his expression cold. So, this woman has some knowledge after all.
"Young Master, may I take a look?" Xuping asked, bowing her head slightly in a gesture of deep respect.
Qin Long gave a slight wave of his hand.
She picked up the Golden Dragon Card with extreme care. The onlookers began to realize that something was wrong. They all stared at the golden card in Xuping’s hand, their curiosity piqued. The card felt smooth and lustrous, with a surprising weight to it.
Sensing the gravity of the situation, she immediately started a video call with her husband, Li Yao. Soon, the image of a pot-bellied man appeared on her phone.
"Ping, what’s wrong?"
"Yao, look at this."
Xuping held the Golden Dragon Card up to the phone’s camera. A panicked voice instantly came from the other end. "The Golden Dragon Card! Ping, serve the owner of that card well! I’m on my way!"
Li Yao was stunned. In his twenty-plus years as a bank president, he had only seen a Golden Dragon Card once, at the Flying Dragon Group’s annual meeting in Yanjing. The card represented supreme power and honor. Only about eighty such cards existed in the entire world. Even the head of the Flying Dragon Group in Yanjing wasn’t qualified to possess one.
Less than five minutes later, Li Yao burst into the store, still wearing his pajamas. When he saw the card, he knew it was true—the Peerless Golden Dragon Card! What an incredible existence! The power and background of this card’s owner must be earth-shattering! He trembled at the thought.
"Peerless Gold... Gold..."
THUD.
In his panic, he stumbled and crashed into a nearby display cabinet.
Everyone in the store was stunned by Li Yao’s terrified reaction.
"This...?"
"What Gold... Dragon Card?"
That’s Li Yao, the President of Flying Dragon Bank and the largest shareholder of this store! What could possibly frighten him this badly? Could that glowing card really be so special? No wonder he said the permissions weren’t activated. Maybe this branch’s level really wasn’t high enough. Of course, that attendant wouldn’t have known any of that.
The same people who had been mocking Qin Long moments ago now felt a chill run down their spines, and many of them had already started to sneak away. Li Yao’s reaction was a resounding slap in the face to all of them. They could only stare at Qin Long with wide, cautious eyes.
Qin Long, however, remained completely indifferent, ignoring Li Yao entirely.
"Director Li, are you alright?" The jewelry store staff and the bank manager rushed out to help him up.
