The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 231: The Sudden Fainting of Elder Wu

Ye Chenfeng and Wu Xiaofei’s engagement ceremony was a lively affair. After Wu Guotian, the commander of the Soldier King Group, had a few drinks, he bid farewell to Elder Ye, Elder Wu, and Ye Chenfeng before leaving.

As the commander of the Soldier King Group, Wu Guotian’s identity in Huaxia Country was already special. Had it not been for Ye Chenfeng’s personal strength being freakishly powerful, why would he have made an exception to attend the Yes and the Wus’ engagement banquet?

After the minute-long deep kiss on stage, Wu Xiaofei still hadn’t recovered! Her fair cheeks were still flushed with two blooms of redness, and she stole glances at Ye Chenfeng sitting beside her, the thought of soon becoming his fiancée filling her with an indescribable joy.

Extending her slender fingers, Wu Xiaofei sneakily pinched Ye Chenfeng’s waist and whispered, "Chenfeng, you have to take responsibility for me from now on, or else I’ll never let you off the hook."

Ye Chenfeng winced in pain at his waist. His Xiaofei Sister had finally returned to her usual self, and this familiar attitude from Wu Xiaofei made him feel at ease. He teased back, "Xiaofei Sister, if you want me to take responsibility, it’s not impossible, how about we do what men and women are supposed to do tonight?"

Although Wu Xiaofei was inexperienced with romantic affairs, she understood the meaning behind Ye Chenfeng’s words. She glared at him in mock annoyance, her face blushing, and said, "I don’t mind. If you dare, come to my room tonight."

Ever since she learned about her engagement to Ye Chenfeng, Wu Xiaofei had been shy in front of him, which made her feel awkward, so she decided to revert to her original personality in front of him.

"Sister, Brother-in-law, what are you two whispering about?" Wu Jie, the rascal, sneaked up beside Wu Xiaofei.

Just as Wu Xiaofei was about to scold Wu Jie, a commotion erupted not too far away, followed by shouts: "Something’s wrong, Elder Wu has fainted, call an ambulance quickly!"

Today, Elder Ye and Elder Wu were truly happy, making their way from table to table to offer toasts. Elder Wu hadn’t been feeling well these past few days, but because of Ye Chenfeng and Wu Xiaofei’s engagement ceremony, he hadn’t immediately gone to the hospital for a check-up.

Right after Elder Wu swallowed a sip of liquor, he felt a suffocating discomfort in his chest, followed by a sensation of being unable to catch his breath. His complexion instantly turned pale, and after struggling to draw three deep breaths, he suddenly collapsed to the ground, fainting.

The sudden turn of events threw the engagement ceremony into disarray, but fortunately, most of the attendees were high-ranking officials from Huaxia Country who were accustomed to crises. They quickly stabilized the situation.

Unable to wait for the ambulance, Wu Zhifang and Wu Kunming, the brothers, hurriedly lifted their father and rushed him out of Jingyun Hotel. They intended to take Elder Wu to the hospital themselves.

Elder Ye swiftly phoned the military hospital’s director to prepare emergency procedures in advance so that Elder Wu could immediately receive treatment upon arrival.

By the time Ye Chenfeng and Wu Xiaofei came to their senses, Elder Wu had already been driven to the military hospital by Wu Zhifang and Wu Kunming. Ye Chenfeng had intended to save Elder Wu but now it seemed he would have to wait until they got to the hospital. If Elder Wu was in no serious condition, he’d let the doctors at the military hospital take care of him. If Elder Wu’s situation was bad, Ye Chenfeng would ultimately have to step in.

"Chenfeng, Xiaofei, let’s go to the hospital too! An Guo should be alright," Ye Zhenhong said, no longer concerned about the engagement ceremony. If anything truly bad happened to Wu Anguo, today’s celebration would turn into a tragedy.

The guests in the second-floor hall of Jingyun Hotel watched as Ye Chenfeng and the others hurriedly departed, and amongst them, many with ulterior motives couldn’t help but smirk.

Take Elder Bai, Song Yigang, for example. He knew that the collateral members of the Wus didn’t agree with the marriage between Ye Chenfeng and Wu Xiaofei. If Elder Wu really had an accident today and tragically passed away, then there would be a major shift in the family’s power dynamics, and the marriage between Ye Chenfeng and Wu Xiaofei would likely be immediately canceled.

True to Song Yigang’s expectations, at the moment Elder Wu fainted, the collateral members of the Wus felt an uncontrollable surge of joy in their hearts.

Speaking of the several old men from the collateral branches of the Wus, their status in Huaxia Country was actually not bad. They had long wanted to replace the main branch of the Wus, but Wu Anguo had always held them down, forcing them to swallow their grievances.

Especially with the marriage between Ye Chenfeng and Wu Xiaofei, the people from the collateral branches of the Wus were opposed, but Wu Anguo went his own way, which deepened the resentment the people from the collateral branches held against him.

Those who also watched with a mocking mentality included people from the collateral branches of the Yes. When Ye Chenfeng had just been reborn to this era, people from the collateral branches of the Yes once rattled the main branch, only to later learn that Elder Ye was not terminally ill. After facing Elder Ye’s anger, they chose to bow their heads.

Seeing that people from both the Ye and Wu families had left the Jingyun Hotel one after the other, many high-ranking officials from Huaxia Country also left the hotel and hurried to the military hospital.

Of course, some were genuinely concerned about Wu Anguo’s health, while others harbored ulterior motives, eager to see whether Wu Anguo would actually pass away.

At the entrance of the emergency room of the military hospital.

Wu Xiaofei’s beautiful eyes were covered with a mist, her gaze unblinkingly fixed on the door of the emergency room, her face filled with worry. Just moments ago, she was immersed in the joy of her engagement to Ye Chenfeng, who could have foreseen that her grandfather Wu Anguo would suddenly... causing her emotions to plummet from great heights in a short time.

"Xiaofei Sister, don’t worry, Grandpa Wu will surely be fine," Ye Chenfeng comforted her gently as he patted Wu Xiaofei’s back.

Even if the hospital could not save Elder Wu’s life, as long as he still had a breath in him, Ye Chenfeng believed that with his own abilities, he could save Elder Wu’s life.

"Yes, Xiaofei, Chenfeng is right. I believe An Guo has great fortune and will not encounter any issues," said Ye Zhenhong, who was also worried. He always knew that Wu Anguo had a bad heart. They were combat veterans together in their youth, and Wu Anguo once took a bullet for Ye Zhenhong. The bullet had grazed close to the heart, and although it was removed at that time, sparing Wu Anguo’s life, it left a lasting effect on his heart.

To put it bluntly, Ye Zhenhong owed Wu Anguo his life. Their friendship had been built on the battlefields of the past. Otherwise, would the Ye and Wu families be so close?

Members from the collateral branches of the Ye and Wu families, as well as numerous high-ranking officials from Huaxia Country, hurried to the emergency room entrance of the military hospital, crowding the corridor outside the emergency room.

Seeing the corridor packed with people, Ye Chenfeng felt an unprovoked surge of anger. When he caught the hint of a smile on the faces of people like Song Yigang, his anger grew even more. If these people truly cared about Elder Wu’s life, then so be it. But many were here to witness a joke, which completely ignited Ye Chenfeng’s fury.

"All you onlookers, leave at once! Do you think this is a zoo? This is a hospital," Ye Chenfeng said without mincing words.

Upon hearing this, many high-level officials of Huaxia Country grew angry. When had they ever been ordered around by a young kid?

Among the crowd of high-level officials, Song Yigang sneered contemptuously, "Ye Chenfeng, aren’t you getting a bit too arrogant? Do you really think Huaxia Country is ruled by your Ye family?"

Elder Bai, the Family Head of the Bais, also sighed and shook his head, thinking to himself, "Even if Ye Chen has gotten over his panic disorder and improved his skills, what of it? With such a temperament, it will be extremely difficult for him to accomplish anything great in the future."

If Elder Bai knew the true extent of Ye Chenfeng’s strength, he might not have thought this way. If a person’s strength is powerful enough to command the respect of everyone, then all the rules are no longer rules in front of him, because rules are made by the strong. (To be continued.
