Chapter 38 - Beg Me

“Stop!”

A steady shout rang out as the elderly Xie halted his bodyguard’s movements.

His murky yet shrewd eyes stared at Ye Xuan as he said, “Young man, I don’t believe I have offended you—why would you say such things?”

Under the intense gaze of the elder Xie, Ye Xuan remained calm and composed.

“Have you been suffering from headaches these past few days, finding relief only when you massage the Fengchi acupoint?

Additionally, have you recently eaten foods high in cholesterol, resulting in elevated blood lipids?

That is why I said you are ill, and not mildly so.”

“Hmph, spreading superstitions!”

Chenyu’s expression darkened as he scoffed at Ye Xuan, “The issue of my grandfather’s headaches is no secret; even the doctors said it’s due to exhaustion.

Yet here you are, spouting nonsense.”

He turned to the elder and said, “Grandfather, this guy definitely just wants to catch your attention with his words, hoping to climb into our Xie Family’s good graces!

We should kick him out immediately!”

Hearing Chenyu’s words, Ye Xuan cast a sympathetic glance at Elder Xie.

Recognizing that the elder had a distinguished standing yet admitted his errors openly, Ye Xuan felt a certain fondness and had intended to give a friendly reminder.

However, since his advice was unwelcome, there was no need for him to persist in his efforts!

Ye Xuan’s gaze swept across the crowd as he spoke solemnly, “I have said what I needed to say—it’s up to you whether you believe it or not.

But later, if you fall ill, blame only your unfilial grandson for squandering the chance to treat you!”

With that, Ye Xuan’s lips curled into a cold, harsh smile.

“If you want to be cured, you’ll have to beg me!”

“You little twerp, who do you think you are, making us beg you?

Fine, I’m going to beat you so bad you’ll be crawling and begging for mercy!”

Chenyu sneered, ready to strike Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan’s eyes turned icy, but just then Elder Xie stopped Chenyu.

“Hmph, you’re lucky today!”

Unable to defy the elder’s command, Chenyu could only look on unwillingly, silently vowing to teach Ye Xuan a lesson someday.

Huating said, “I keep my word; I’ll arrange a private room for you and your friends on the third floor, as an apology from the Xie Family!

As for the treatment, I’ve been in good health recently—let’s forget about it.”

Chenyu watched Ye Xuan gleefully, his grandfather’s anger successfully kindled.

Initially, he feared that disciplining Ye Xuan might displease his grandfather, but now it seemed there was no need to worry.

Unknown to Chenyu, deep inside, Huating was secretly astonished.

Yet, he concealed it well!

Because Ye Xuan was right—the elder managed to alleviate his headaches by massaging the Fengchi acupoint and had indeed indulged in some animal organs due to a good appetite recently.

That Ye Xuan could pinpoint these details was quite astonishing.

The reason Elder Xie showed no reaction was that he found the young man too arrogant, oblivious to the ways of the world!

He, Huating, had never begged anyone.

“Grandfather, the banquet is about to begin; let’s go in and not worry about the rantings of a lunatic,” Chenyu said, his voice dripping with sarcasm.

“Alright, let’s go!”

Elder Xie nodded, not dwelling on the matter.

In his view, even if Ye Xuan truly understood medical techniques, how skilled could such a young doctor be?

“Let’s go eat!

A free private room should not be wasted.”

Ye Xuan smiled slightly as he walked into the hotel first.

Zheng Xiaobo and Yuan Mengmeng exchanged glances and followed him.

Inside the third-floor private room.

Zheng Xiaobo and Yuan Mengmeng were so surprised that their mouths dropped open at the sight of the luxurious furnishings and decorations!

After receiving the old Family Head’s orders, Manager Sun naturally didn’t dare to kick them out of the hotel anymore and arranged a luxurious private room for the three of them before leaving.

Ye Xuan was indifferent, having visited royal palaces ten times more luxurious, he was naturally not going to make a big fuss about it.

But it was different for Zheng Xiaobo and Yuan Mengmeng, it was definitely their first time dining in such a high-class place.

As for Yuan Mengmeng, her monthly salary wasn’t even enough for one dining experience here!

Although Zheng Xiaobo had a membership card, it was only the lowest level at Di Jing Hotel, which only allowed him to spend on the ordinary first floor; it was his first time coming up to the third floor.

“This…

this is the finest wine from Lansi Country, reserved for the Royal Family!

My god, can we really drink these as much as we want?”

Zheng Xiaobo stared at the various famous wines in the cabinet and asked incredulously.

“Yes, sir!

The third floor is exclusive for three-star members, all the alcoholic beverages here are complimentary, and you can drink as you please.”

A hotel lady, dressed in a professional suit and looking attractive, replied with a smile.

The place was equipped with dedicated, caring hostesses who could meet any demand from guests as long as the price was right.

“You can leave us now, the three of us are dining, and we don’t like to be disturbed,” Ye Xuan ordered.

The uniformed lady looked at Ye Xuan in surprise, nodded, and quietly exited the private room, gently closing the door behind her.

Ye Xuan walked up, glanced through the cabinet, then took out a bottle of royal salute, pouring two glasses of it.

He then grabbed a bottle of wine and poured some for Yuan Mengmeng as well.

Zheng Xiaobo said excitedly, “To dine once on the third floor of Di Jing Hotel and to meet the legendary figure Xie Huating, I, Zheng Xiaobo, can die without regrets.”

Ye Xuan’s expression changed as he asked, “Xie Huating, was that the old man just now?”

Zheng Xiaobo nodded and said, “He is the current Family Head of the Xie Family, one of the four major families in East Sea City, and Di Jing Hotel belongs to the Xie Family!

However, I heard he has stepped back now and handed over the family business to his eldest son, Xie Huang…”

At this, Zheng Xiaobo’s face wore a strange expression, “Thankfully, the old man didn’t take your actions personally, otherwise, if you got on the wrong side of the Xie Family, you wouldn’t be able to get by in East Sea City.”

“Indeed, Brother Ye, people like them are not ones we can afford to provoke,” Yuan Mengmeng also advised.

Ye Xuan shrugged and said, “That old man was sick and still stubbornly refused to admit it!

If it hadn’t been for him owning up to his mistake on his own, I wouldn’t have bothered to remind him.”

Hearing Ye Xuan’s words, Zheng Xiaobo rolled his eyes, feeling that this guy was boasting to the skies.

“Keep those thoughts to yourself, just make sure they don’t reach the ears of the Xie Family, and also be careful around Xie Chenyu, that man takes revenge for the smallest slights!”

Zheng Xiaobo frowned deeply and said seriously.

Ye Xuan didn’t care at all; East Sea City’s local family, coupled with a good-for-nothing heir, if that sort of setup could catch ‘Black Emperor’s attention, it would be a joke!

For the next while, the three of them chatted, drank, and dined in a very harmonious atmosphere.

During this time, Yuan Mengmeng kept initiating conversations with Ye Xuan, calling him “Brother Ye” endearingly, which made Zheng Xiaobo incredibly envious!

“This treatment, really, some people have all the luck!”

Zheng Xiaobo silently lamented, feeling he wasn’t that fortunate!

After having their fill, the three of them chatted for a while and were about to get up and leave when suddenly, the door to the private room was pushed open.

A middle-aged man, dressed in a suit with a leather collar and looking anxious, walked in.

Seeing Ye Xuan, his eyes lit up and he headed straight toward them.

“Young man, my father has suddenly fallen into a coma, please come with me and save my father’s life!” the middle-aged man urgently and loudly said.
