Chapter 305 - Neither Overbearing nor Servile

Chen Yang nodded with a faint smile, “Uncle, I wouldn’t say I’m a Divine Doctor, I just know a little medical skill, that’s all.”

Chen Yang’s response was neither humble nor haughty and modest, and it was also very polite.

This impressed Yang Tianchen favorably, and he revised his opinion of Chen Yang significantly.

“You cured Ruoxi’s grandfather’s asthma, and by rights, I should thank you properly.

However, I came in a hurry to pick up Ruoxi today and didn’t prepare anything.

If there is a chance next time, I will be sure to thank you properly,”

Yang Tiancheng said with a smile.

“No need, Uncle.

Curing the old master’s illness was just a small effort, nothing significant.

No thanks are necessary!”

Chen Yang continued to respond politely.

Seeing Chen Yang’s reply, Yang Ruoxi beside him was somewhat astonished.

Is this still Chen Yang?

“Hehe, you’re too modest, I’m very clear about Ruoxi’s grandfather’s condition, it’s very serious!”

Yang Tiancheng chuckled, “Since you cured him, our whole family owes you a debt of gratitude, so you don’t have to be modest.”

Chen Yang was very polite, and Yang Tiancheng was somewhat courteous to Chen Yang as well.

After all, it was their first meeting, and neither of them had any disagreements with the other.

The only thing that slightly annoyed Yang Tiancheng was that Chen Yang had held Yang Ruoxi’s hand.

However, he didn’t show his displeasure on the spot and chose to ignore it instead.

After that, Chen Yang exchanged a few more pleasantries with Yang Tiancheng, who then cut to the chase.

“I came today to take Ruoxi back.

She’s had some minor disagreements with me recently, acting a bit childish.”

Yang Tiancheng said with a smile.

“I’m not being childish!

I’m serious!

If you insist on making me marry that person, I won’t go back with you no matter what!”

As soon as Yang Tiancheng finished speaking, Yang Ruoxi quickly replied anxiously.

Yang Tiancheng’s expression turned unpleasant!

“Have I been too indulgent with you, letting you become what you are now!”

Yang Tiancheng reprimanded Yang Ruoxi, then said with a firm tone, “Today, no matter what, you must come back with me.”

Yang Tiancheng was the type to be domineering, he even took a couple of steps forward, intending to take Yang Ruoxi away by force.

But at that moment, Chen Yang stepped in between them.

“Uncle, I understand some of the issues between you and Ruoxi.

Could you please calm down first?”

Chen Yang spoke in a calming tone.

Yang Tiancheng’s attitude towards Chen Yang had been okay until he saw Chen Yang step in the middle, and remembering how Chen Yang had held Yang Ruoxi’s hand, his demeanor suddenly became unfriendly.

“Divine Doctor Chen, I respect that you saved my father-in-law’s life, but this is the Yang Family’s internal affair, and I hope you won’t interfere,”

Yang Tiancheng’s voice became slightly cold, on the verge of losing his temper.

But naturally, Chen Yang wasn’t about to be intimidated by Yang Tiancheng.

“Uncle, that’s where you’re wrong.

Ruoxi and I are friends.

Forcing her to marry someone she’s never even met, don’t you think it’s something I should get involved in?”

Chen Yang furrowed his brow, responding firmly and assertively.

“Hmph!”

After being contradicted by Chen Yang, Yang Tiancheng let out a heavy snort, “This is the Yang Family’s affair!

Certainly no place for so-called friends to meddle!

I am Ruoxi’s father!

I naturally won’t harm her!

Do you understand?”

Yang Tiancheng’s tone now fully conveyed his anger.

And with him repeatedly stating that he was Yang Ruoxi’s father, it gave his stance even more dominance.

This situation seemed to put Chen Yang at a considerable disadvantage.

It made it seem like he was interfering where he shouldn’t, as if the Yang Family was trying to marry off their daughter and Chen Yang, a completely unrelated person, was obstinately getting in the way.

But at that moment, Yang Ruoxi suddenly became defiant.

She stepped forward and tightly grabbed Chen Yang’s hand!

“Who says he’s not involved!

Chen Yang is my boyfriend!

If you force me to marry someone else, it obviously involves him!”

Yang Ruoxi answered loudly.

This stunned everyone present.

Especially Yang Tiancheng, whose face was filled with shock.

“What nonsense are you talking about?

You’ve only been here a few days?

How could he be your boyfriend?”

Yang Tiancheng didn’t believe it.

“Hmph, he is my boyfriend!”

Yang Ruoxi lightly huffed, her attitude very serious.

Looking at Yang Ruoxi’s serious demeanor, combined with the hand-holding as the two of them had just come out,

Yang Tiancheng somewhat believed it!

However, this matter didn’t make Yang Tiancheng’s attitude soften; on the contrary, he became even more infuriated.

In his eyes, his daughter was a pearl in the palm of his hand!

How could she have a boyfriend from the countryside?

Only a wealthy family with an equal social standing was worthy of Yang Ruoxi.

“Regardless of whether he is your boyfriend or not, there is no room for negotiation today!

You must come back with me!

You can’t stay here for another minute!”

Yang Tiancheng’s voice rose in a roar.

This situation was too infuriating for him.

After roaring at Yang Ruoxi, he turned his cold gaze toward Chen Yang.

“Chen Yang, Ruoxi is my only daughter, no matter what, I will not let you end up with her, do you understand?

You’d better give up this idea!”

Yang Tiancheng coldly finished those words, and before Chen Yang had a chance to say anything, he roared again!

“Move aside!”

This sentence was directly bellowed at Chen Yang.

Although Chen Yang respected Yang Tiancheng as Yang Ruoxi’s father,

he wasn’t a pushover!

How could he let himself be bullied for no reason?

And at this moment, his role was Yang Ruoxi’s boyfriend.

How could he have no reaction to Yang Tiancheng’s words?

Chen Yang’s expression also turned completely cold.

“Uncle Yang, I know you love Ruoxi and that’s why you’re doing this, but I ask you to understand Ruoxi’s true feelings before you make a decision!

Will she be happy if you force her to do something she doesn’t want to?”

Chen Yang answered with an icy tone.

This caught Yang Tiancheng off guard for a moment.

He had not expected a country lad to dare talk back to him like this.

It was somewhat unexpected.

But it was only a brief moment of astonishment.

“Hmph, none of this concerns you.

No matter what, I will take Ruoxi away today, and from now on, I will not allow her to have any contact with you, do you understand?”

Yang Tiancheng let out another heavy grunt and at the same time reached out to push Chen Yang, trying to shove Chen Yang away from in front of him.

But Chen Yang stood his ground like an iron pillar.

No matter how much he was pushed, Chen Yang didn’t budge at all.

“You really are out of your mind!

Since it has come to this, then let me tell you clearly!

No matter what, I will not let you take Ruoxi away today.”

Facing Yang Tiancheng’s irrationality, Chen Yang became unabashed as well, directly confronting him.

Already very annoyed, Yang Tiancheng was now furious at being told he was out of his mind.

“Chen Yang!

I respect you for saving Ruoxi’s grandfather, I’m warning you for the last time!

If you continue to be so unappreciative and refuse to step aside, don’t blame me if I really turn on you.”

Yang Tiancheng’s tone was icy cold as he issued his final ultimatum to Chen Yang.

The solemn bodyguards behind him took a synchronized step forward, their presence quite intimidating.

But Chen Yang wasn’t scared at all!

“If you want to take Ruoxi away properly, by having a good talk with her, I won’t have a second word to say, but if you intend to snatch her, then I’m sorry, but I’ll have to offend.”

Chen Yang spoke without changing his expression.

“Hahaha!

Good lad!

Quite bold!”

Yang Tiancheng suddenly burst into loud laughter, then his expression turned cold again, “Today, I really want to see whether you’re just bluffing or if you truly have some skills!”

After speaking, Yang Tiancheng quickly retreated several steps.

His men rushed forward in unison.

Their stance was set to forcefully take someone!
