Doctor and His Glamorous Sister-in-Law

"Hahaha, damn, Li Chuan, I can't believe you actually have a kidney deficiency! Hahaha, this is hilarious!"

"Tsk, now that you've got a kidney deficiency, Chuan, what's your girlfriend going to do? If you can't perform, I don't mind..."

"Li Chuan, it looks like your reputation for kidney deficiency has even reached the countryside, hahaha!"

The slick-looking man named Li Chuan flushed red as he heard the teasing around him. His gaze toward Liu Ergou was filled with malice.

"Where did this country bumpkin come from, daring to run his mouth here? Do you even know where you are?" Li Chuan pointed at Liu Ergou and started cursing.

However, Liu Ergou completely ignored him. Instead, he interrupted with a serious expression, "Your name is Li Chuan, right?"

"I'm a doctor, so you should listen to my advice. Your kidney deficiency is extremely serious; your kidney's vital essence is already depleted. If you don't get treatment soon, you'll likely develop a series of extremely difficult conditions, like impotence or..."

As Liu Ergou spoke, the laughter from the crowd grew even louder. Li Chuan couldn't stand it any longer. He had planned to mock Liu Ergou, but now he'd been completely outplayed. Seeing how earnest Liu Ergou was, he found himself at a loss for words.

Frustrated and enraged, he could only shout, "Shut your mouth, you damned country bumpkin!"

"If you dare say one more word, believe me, you're not walking away from this today!" he threatened, raising his fist as if to beat Liu Ergou up.

But Liu Ergou acted as if he hadn't seen a thing and continued, "You can't afford to get angry or stay up late drinking. Your kidneys are already very fragile!"

"As a doctor..."

Li Chuan couldn't listen to another word. Blinded by rage, he no longer cared that this was a birthday party. He swung his fist at Liu Ergou, aiming straight for his eye.

Seeing this, the simple look in Liu Ergou's eyes instantly turned sharp. He dodged Li Chuan's punch with a slight turn of his body, then countered with a punch of his own, striking Li Chuan hard in the stomach.

Liu Ergou had used a mere ten percent of his strength for that punch.

That ten percent was enough to send Li Chuan to his knees, his eyes wide as he retched uncontrollably.

Even then, Liu Ergou couldn't help but rub salt in the wound.

"I told you, you really do have a kidney deficiency. If you didn't, my punch wouldn't have laid you out so easily..."

Before he could finish, Li Chuan roared, "AAAGH! You damned bumpkin... I!"

Li Chuan's words were cut short as the lights in the banquet hall suddenly dimmed, and spotlights focused on the stage at the front. Everyone present knew the star of the birthday party was about to make her entrance.

Though furious, Li Chuan shut his mouth. But even then, he didn't forget to shoot Liu Ergou a venomous glare.

Liu Ergou, however, acted as if he noticed nothing, his eyes fixed on the stage.

Just then, Fu Ya, wearing a gorgeous princess dress, slowly walked from backstage onto the stage. She was accompanied by a short, chubby, balding man.

The balding man stepped up to the microphone. "Welcome, everyone. Thank you for taking the time to come to my daughter's birthday party. It is a great honor!"

"But, as her father, I shouldn't steal my daughter's spotlight. So, I'll now let my daughter say a few words!" he said, handing the microphone to Fu Ya.

Taking the microphone, Fu Ya blinked a few times, a thoughtful expression on her face as she seemed unsure of what to say. Her contemplative look instantly caused all the men in the audience to widen their eyes, staring at her intently.

After a long moment, Fu Ya finally spoke.

"Thank you all for coming to my birthday party. I'm not very good with words, so all I can say is I hope you all have a wonderful time!"

As she spoke, Fu Ya flashed a sweet smile.

Just then, someone shouted from below the stage.

"Today is Fu Ya's birthday, so I have prepared a modest gift!"

"I hope Miss Fu Ya won't mind this humble gift!"

As the words fell, the crowd immediately parted, revealing the speaker.

It was none other than Li Chuan.

Li Chuan slowly pulled a diamond-inlaid gift box from his pocket. He opened it to reveal a watch that gleamed dazzlingly. Holding the box high, Li Chuan announced, "Miss Fu Ya, I heard you like luxury watches, so I spared no expense in purchasing this piece. This watch was crafted by a top master at Baida, and it's worth a million! I hope you'll accept it, Fu Ya!"

With that, Li Chuan slowly walked over and handed the gift box to Fu Ya.

Fu Ya took the watch and gave it only a passing glance. She said politely, "Ah, thank you for your gift. I really like it!"

She then handed the box to a nearby servant. With a smile, she turned as if to leave.

Seeing this, Li Chuan was dumbfounded. He hadn't expected the million-dollar watch he bought would fail to stir even the slightest emotion in her, and that was something he couldn't accept.

Originally, he had hoped to make a grand impression with this watch and perhaps even capture Fu Ya's heart! If that actually happened, her family's fortune would be within his grasp! Not only that, but with such a rich wife, his future would be set for a meteoric rise to success! But now, all those dreams were shattered.

At this thought, Li Chuan seethed, grinding his teeth.

Why? Why didn't she like the watch he gave her? He had clearly done his research. Damn it!

As Li Chuan clenched his jaw in resentment, his eyes suddenly caught sight of Liu Ergou standing below, still looking dazed while munching on some food.

His eyes darted, and a plan began to form.

Li Chuan suddenly addressed the crowd, "Ladies and gentlemen, everyone attending this party today is a person of status and influence! I'm sure the gifts you've all prepared are quite impressive, aren't they?"

As soon as he said this, the people below began to murmur among themselves.

"Of course! The gift I brought is a piece of jadeite!"

"Jadeite? That's nothing. I brought a piece of Hetian Jade!"

"Tsk, tsk. You're all way off the mark. Don't you even know what the birthday girl actually likes?"
