Extraordinary Medical Saint in the City-Chapter 10 - : The Dragon Among Men!

Just when everyone was puzzled.

Jiang Yunzhi spoke again.

"Yichen, apologize to Brother Lin!" Jiang Yunzhi said sternly.

Utter silence filled the venue.

When Jiang Yunzhi spoke, not a single sound was made by anyone in the room; even the sound of breathing ceased!

"What? Grandfather, you..."

Jiang Yichen incredulously raised his head, looking at his grandfather in surprise.

"I told you to apologize to Brother Lin, can't you hear?"

A frown crossed Jiang Yunzhi's brow, a flash of displeasure in his eyes.

"This..."

The wealthy attendees present were all stunned by this scene!

It was one thing for Jiang Yunzhi to come forward to get Lin Nan out of a tight spot.

But to actually have his own grandson publicly apologize to Lin Fan? This was simply inconceivable!

"Understood, Grandfather!"

Fear flickered in Jiang Yichen's eyes.

No matter how many doubts and grievances filled his heart, he didn't dare utter another word.

His grandfather was the absolute authority within the Jiang Family!

"I'm sorry!"

Jiang Yichen clenched his teeth and addressed Lin Fan.

Lin Fan did not even glance at him but ignored the man outright.

A deep anger flitted through the depths of Jiang Yichen's eyes, yet he dared not show it.

"Li Hongtian, what is this attitude?"

Jiang Yunzhi's gaze shifted to Li Hongtian.

"Old Jiang, I understand! As for today's incident, the fault lies entirely with my son, and I will not pursue the matter further."

Li Hongtian gritted his teeth as he spoke, his heart full of dissatisfaction, but he didn't dare say a word against it!

"From now on, if you dare to trouble the Zhou Family again, I will not spare you!"

Lin Fan's tone remained indifferent as he looked at Li Hongtian.

"Li Hongtian understands!"

In Li Hongtian's heart.

No matter how much reluctance he felt, beneath Jiang Yunzhi's imposing authority, he had no choice but to swallow his grievances.

Yet, in the depths of his eyes, a thick intent to kill surfaced!

Suddenly.

"Haha! Brother Lin, I've been looking everywhere for you. Ever since we parted in Maple Forest, I've asked people to look for you in Ancient State. It's my seventieth birthday bash, you must come and have a drink, right? Who would have thought, by a twist of fate, we'd meet here at this birthday banquet!"

Jiang Yunzhi burst into hearty laughter.

He stepped forward, took Lin Fan's hand in a very intimate manner, and said cheerfully, "Brother Lin, there are a few drinks prepared inside. Please, come with me and have a few!"

Seeing Jiang Yunzhi's enthusiasm and how he had just helped him out, Lin Fan found it hard to refuse.

"Old Jiang, please just call me Lin Fan! My mother once taught me to respect the elderly and cherish the young. We belong to different generations, and for you to call me 'Brother Lin' really flatters me too much!"

Lin Fan said, shaking his head slightly. Though his words were polite, they were spoken with an air of neither servility nor assertiveness.

Jiang Yunzhi, seeing this, a hint of satisfaction appeared in his eyes.

His attitude towards Lin Fan remained the same, yet the other party was still able to maintain composure.

Furthermore, the teachings of Lin Fan's parents, which he always remembered, made Jiang Yunzhi very pleased.

"You all come along too!"

Jiang Yunzhi turned his head and glanced at Zhou Haonan's family, but his tone was much colder.

For people like Zhou Haonan, even getting a chance to see Jiang Yunzhi was extremely difficult, let alone enter the cabinet and attend a banquet with him and others.

"Old Jiang... We will be fine staying on the outside."

Zhou Haonan secretly swallowed hard and quickly shook his head!

He knew his status; how could he dare to enter the cabinet and sit with those billionaires worth billions or tens of billions?

Even if he entered, he was not of the same circle, couldn't fit into the conversation, and would be better off staying on the periphery.

"Well then, since that's the case, housekeeper, please take good care of them."

Jiang Yunzhi nodded slightly, he had only mentioned it in passing, but the other party was also aware of their limits.

"As you command, elder!"

A man in his fifties bowed slightly.

He watched as Jiang Yunzhi and Lin Fan disappeared from view.

"Honored guests, please take your seats."

The old housekeeper approached Zhou Haonan, Wang Qing, Zhou Ling'er, and the others, inviting them to sit.

With Jiang Yunzhi personally giving instructions to take good care of the Zhou Family's people.

No one at the banquet's periphery dared to look down on the Zhou Family members anymore; some wealthy tycoons who usually dismissed Zhou Haonan were now all rushing forward to curry favor.

"Younger brother Zhou, why didn't you mention such a connection earlier! We'll sign the contract for your garment factory!"

"Brother Zhou, I've agreed to the cooperation we discussed last time! I'll allocate fifty million for an investment in your garment factory as soon as I'm back, as for the shares, you can decide!"

"Younger brother Zhou..."

Watching the tycoons, whom he had no time to flatter on ordinary days, now all crowding around him.

Zhou Haonan only felt his head spinning.

"Hmph! What are you doing? This is Elder Jiang's honored guest!"

Under the housekeeper's voice, the group of wealthy men reluctantly moved away.

No longer daring to surround the Zhou Family members.

After the Zhou Family members took their seats.

Zhou Ling'er then stared with wide eyes, naively asking, "Old Grandpa, what exactly is the relationship between Brother Lin Fan and Elder Jiang?"

This address of 'old grandpa' softened the housekeeper's expression, and he couldn't help but smile kindly.

"You sweet-talking little girl, I don't see why I shouldn't tell you."

Hearing this, Zhou Haonan, Wang Qing, Zhou Ling'er, and a group of nearby wealthy folks all perked up their ears.

"This young brother Lin Fan is truly an extraordinary hero! Today, in the maple forest, he actually solved the True Dragon Chess Puzzle that had stumped Elder Jiang for thirty years!" the old housekeeper explained.

"So, in Elder Jiang's mind, he has long forgotten young brother Lin Fan's age, and is ready to consider him a friend regardless of the age difference!"

Realizing this, the wealthy individuals present had an epiphany!

"So that's what it was!"

One of the tycoons smacked his forehead.

"I was wondering about Lin Fan's background!"

"It's because he solved the True Dragon Chess Puzzle! No wonder Elder Jiang values him so highly. Elder Jiang himself is a major fan of Go, and Lin Fan's solution to the True Dragon Chess Puzzle is why Elder Jiang sees him as a friend regardless of the age difference. I thought Lin Fan had some powerful backing!" The tycoons shook their heads, deflating all at once.

Even those who had just been talking about signing contracts or investing in Zhou Haonan's garment factory were now having second thoughts.

"In this day and age, background and personal strength are what matter most. What's the use of playing chess? Even if you're a world champion, how much can that be worth?"

A wealthy man with a belly, dressed in glittering finery and wearing a Rolex encrusted with diamonds on his wrist, scoffed, the Jade Ring gleaming on his thumb.

The crowd exchanged knowing smiles, their consensus unspoken!

Clearly, they all shared this belief.

"Just solved the True Dragon Chess Puzzle?"

Zhou Haonan's eyes also flickered with a hint of disappointment.

'Hmph! How could you understand? Anyone who solves the True Dragon Chess Puzzle is among the best, like Zhuge Kongming, Liu Bowen, and others were historical founding contributors. Lin Fan's future achievements will surely be more than just this!' the housekeeper thought disdainfully, looking at their reactions.

'Now if we don't form a connection, when a True Dragon soars the Nine Heavens, it will be too late for our Jiang Family to seek an alliance!'

'Elder Jiang's insight is truly sharp and farsighted!'

'Do you really think Elder Jiang is only interested in Lin Fan for solving the chess puzzle?'

'What Elder Jiang values is the dragon among men!'
