Heavenly Dragon Doctor Son-in-Law-Chapter 78 - 79 Zhang Meilan Being Mocked!

"People say this car is a must-have for a budding entrepreneur. I wouldn’t know, I just thought I’d let the neighbors have a good look." The woman’s eyes were filled with pride. Although she spoke calmly, her superior attitude was off-putting.

But after all, not just anyone could afford an Audi A4. Only a few people in this community could manage it.

"Oh my, that’s really impressive." Zhang Meilan knew Meiling was showing off on purpose, but she didn’t get angry.

"Of course it is. At least it’s something you can see and use," Meiling said with a smug laugh. "A Rolls-Royce is nice, but it doesn’t actually belong to you, does it? Wouldn’t you agree, Meilan?"

She was using the Rolls-Royce Han Bing had driven the day before to mock Zhang Meilan. This Audi A4 might not compare to that, but it truly belonged to their family. The more Meiling talked, the prouder she became. She could finally get one over on Zhang Meilan.

Hearing her mocking tone, the neighbors began to whisper among themselves. Everyone knew that Zhang Meilan spent her days playing mahjong while Qin Long was a cripple. Tang De’s meager salary was gambled away by his wife almost every month, leaving the family to survive on Tang Xuewu’s wages alone. They couldn’t afford to buy a car, let alone a single wheel.

WHIRRR!

Just then, a crisp engine sound echoed from the distance. A moment later, a black Audi came slowly into view. It was the epitome of understated luxury.

"Holy crap, is that an Audi A6?"

"Meiling, you’re really something! Is that your son-in-law’s car?"

All the neighbors turned to look at Meiling, their faces full of envy.

"No... that’s..." Meiling’s brow furrowed as she stared intently at the approaching Audi.

The Audi came to a stop, and the automatic window glided down to reveal a man in his thirties wearing a black shirt.

"Young Master Qin, where would you like me to park?" he asked respectfully. "All the documents have been taken care of. They’re on the passenger seat. If you have any problems at all, just give us a call!"

The man parked the car beside the Tang family’s courtyard, exactly where Qin Long had pointed. Then, he handed the keys to Qin Long with the utmost reverence and gave a deep bow.

An Audi A6 was much better than an A4.

An uproar went through the crowd, leaving everyone stunned. A second ago, they had been flaunting an Audi A4 in front of Qin Long. The next second, an A6 that he had bought appeared in the Tang family’s courtyard. They had been put in their place yet again. How humiliating. Those who had been sneering just moments before were now completely dumbfounded.

Qin Long remained nonchalant, simply passing the keys to Zhang Meilan.

"Auntie Lan, you can take this car when you go play mahjong."

His movements were steady, and his voice was calm.

"This—!"

Everyone gasped, causing another commotion. Using this to go play mahjong? This was a 600,000-yuan Audi, bought specifically for playing mahjong? That was just too damn extravagant!

But Zhang Meilan knew Qin Long wasn’t just bragging; he meant it. As she stood under everyone’s shocked gazes, she felt an immense sense of vindication. How satisfying! This was a resounding slap in the face to all those haughty people, and it felt great to finally be the one looking down on them.

"Alright then!" Zhang Meilan beamed as she took the keys. She deliberately looked at Meiling and said teasingly, "Meiling, I’ll take you with me to play mahjong next time."

"This... Meilan, is this your new car?" Meiling asked, her expression full of disbelief.

Just moments ago, she had been trying to use her son’s Audi to show off to her neighbors. She never expected to be slapped down by Meilan on the spot. Her face flushed red with humiliation.

"That’s right. This is the car Young Master Qin bought specifically for Auntie Lan," the delivery man cleverly interjected. He then handed Qin Long a business card. "Young Master Qin, if you have any requests, you can call me directly, anytime!"

Qin Long gave the man a faint smile. "Okay, I appreciate it."

Hearing this, the man looked as if he had just received an award and left excitedly.

Now, with two Audis parked nearby, the neighbors felt incredibly awkward.

"Xuewu, I’m hungry. Let’s go make dinner," Qin Long said, tugging lightly at Tang Xuewu’s sleeve. He had no interest in these neighbors; he only wanted to ensure Tang Xuewu’s family would no longer be bullied.

Hearing him, Tang Xuewu felt a deep sense of security. In the past, they had always been the ones being mocked. Now, they had finally managed to put their tormentors in their place, and she was naturally overjoyed.

"Meilan, this car isn’t another one borrowed by your so-called future son-in-law, is it?" Meiling questioned with a sneer, still refusing to believe it.

At her words, the people around her instantly understood. They all remembered the fifty-million-yuan Aston Martin that had once been parked in the Tang family’s courtyard. That car was now gone. The neighbors started gossiping again, quickly reaching a consensus: Qin Long must have borrowed this car specifically to one-up them. Otherwise, how could he possibly afford an Audi?

"What do you mean, borrowed?" Zhang Meilan bristled with anger. She immediately reached into the car, grabbed the papers from the passenger seat, and brandished the agreement bearing her name and thumbprint. "Take a look! Is this agreement in my name or not?"

Once everyone saw the documents clearly, they fell silent.

Only Meiling remained, fuming. She had intended to show off her son’s car, but she had ended up being humiliated by that shrew Zhang Meilan. The more she thought about it, the more her hatred grew.

"Meilan, a person should be down-to-earth and keep a low profile," Li Meiling seethed, scolding her through clenched teeth. "Don’t get so full of yourself just because you bought an Audi. Using it to go play mahjong? Don’t be so arrogant."

"Li Meiling, say one more word and I’ll rip that mouth of yours!" Zhang Meilan shot back. She was a renowned shrew who had never lost an argument. "It’s our car, and I’ll do whatever the hell I want with it! You’d love to drive a car like this to play mahjong, but do you even have one?"

"Oh, auntie, don’t get so worked up. It’s just a measly Audi A6. Has it really made you this arrogant? What a frog in a well."

At that moment, a young woman in a black bodycon skirt stepped out from behind Li Meiling. She approached with a look of disdain on her pretty face. She was Li Meiling’s daughter-in-law, the one who had bought the Audi A4 as a gift for Li Meiling’s son. Although the A6 was indeed a bit better than her A4, it wasn’t enough to intimidate her.

The surrounding neighbors nodded in agreement.

"That’s right, Meilan. How can your family afford such a luxury car?"

"That good-for-nothing Qin Long must have cost you a fortune, right? Xuewu, I remember you’ve been wearing that same outfit for three years." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

"Even if Qin Long has recovered his memory and things are better, you shouldn’t be spending money like this."

"You shouldn’t suffer in private just to keep up appearances."

"Besides, it’s just a lousy Audi. Those cars are a dime a dozen in the new district of Jiangzhong."

A wave of mockery rose from the crowd. They were the type of people who looked down on you when you were poor and grew jealous when you became rich. In the past, Tang Xuewu’s family had been the poor household everyone loved to ridicule. They even remembered the fool Qin Long collecting disability benefits. After all, all their money had been poured into treating Qin Long’s legs. For three years, Tang Xuewu had never given up on finding treatment for Qin Long’s legs, spending almost half of her salary on him. Because of Qin Long, the Tang family patriarch wanted nothing to do with them.

So, all this time, Tang Xuewu’s family had been destitute. Now that they could suddenly afford an Audi, it didn’t sit well with the neighbors at all.
