NOVEL NEXT Chapter 145 I'm Married Now!
Lord Dog and Qian Tianao's invited Doctors have all arrived.
The Uncle Mu spoke at this moment, "Gentlemen, let's get ready to proceed with the diagnosis first! As for any wager between you two, our Mu Family shall not interfere. Following the instructions of the Family Head, if you can cure Mu Jianglin, in addition to bestowing our Mu Family's Moon Concealing Stone, we will also extend a marriage proposal to Mu Jiangyue from our family."
"Oh?"
At this, Qin Feng blinked and asked Lord Dog, "Wasn't it just for the Moon Concealing Stone? Why include marriage too?"
"That's Mu Jiangyue!"
Lord Dog's eyes lit up as he said, "Mu Jiangyue, despite her young age, is already exceptionally gifted and holds the position of the Mu Family Head. Furthermore, she's considered the number one beauty of the Southwest; countless individuals covet her!"
"Why didn't you mention this before?" Qin Feng said in annoyance.
"This was a decision made by the Mu Family in the afternoon; I didn't know about it earlier," Lord Dog explained.
Qin Feng sighed and said, "The Mu Family is compassionate and noble; it's rare to see such willingness to pay such a high price to save a life."
What he didn't know was that the Mu Family had made this decision also because of the affair concerning the Moon Concealing Stone.
To save her sister Mu Jianglin, Mu Jiangyue was willing to use the Moon Concealing Stone as a bargaining chip, which greatly displeased them.
Though displeased.
They also believed that Mu Jianglin's illness was incurable, that no one could heal her, and thus didn't take it too seriously.
But then.
Qian Tianao managed to invite two Hidden World Holy Doctors, and that was dangerous!
Hidden World Holy Doctors, much more formidable than the Mortal World's equivalents, were only slightly lesser than the Three Great Divine Doctors, and the chances of curing her were significant.
So, they devised a plan—to force Mu Jiangyue into marriage!
You, Mu Jiangyue, are willing to give away the Moon Concealing Stone for your sister's sake?
Then muster the courage to offer yourself as a reward too!
Unexpectedly, she agreed.
This suited them just fine.
As the Family Head of the Mu Family, if they could marry off Mu Jiangyue, then they would have a chance to assume the position of Family Head!
Although they couldn't keep the Moon Concealing Stone.
But compared with obtaining the position of Family Head, it seemed much less important.
At this moment.
Hearing the information that Mu Jiangyue would serve as a bargaining chip for treatment, even the ever-composed Qian Tianao couldn't help but have his eyes shine and swallow hard.
That's the number one beauty of the Southwest.
Even nationwide, maybe worldwide, she ranked remarkably high.
Who under the heavens would not be moved?
Qin Feng then said to Lord Dog, "Let's make it clear, I shall cure the illness, but cannot marry her. I already have a wife."
Pfft—!
Upon hearing this, everyone internally spewed blood.
Damn it!
It's as if you could cure the illness!
Moreover.
With the earth-shattering beauty of Mu Jiangyue, craved by countless wealthy and noble families, you—such an insignificant character—are putting on airs!
"Hilarious."
Qian Tianao laughed loudly, "Old Li, this is the Doctor you invited? He's simply a joke."
Seeing this, Lord Dog quickly glanced at Qin Feng with shock, afraid he would lash out at Qian Tianao on the spot.
Fortunately, Qin Feng acted as though he hadn't heard it and ignored him.
Lord Dog breathed a slight sigh of relief and warned Qian Tianao, "It'd be best if you kept your mouth shut. Say one more word, and you might end up dead!"
"Hmph!"
Qian Tianao scoffed contemptuously, "You've been duped and don't even realize it. It's pitiful! As far as I know, it's Su Ruolan who is the Doctor, and the one you so respectfully call Qin Feng is nothing but a good-for-nothing son-in-law from a minor family in Lake City."
"You—you really have a death wish, huh? Shut it now!"
Lord Dog was really afraid Qin Feng would get angry. After scolding Qian Tianao, he quickly reassured Qin Feng, saying, "Please, don't be angry over the petty words of lesser men..."
"No bother, I can't be bothered to waste my breath on ants."
Qin Feng shrugged his shoulders.
"That's good, that's good..."
Lord Dog breathed easier once again.
Witnessing this, Qian Tianao sneered disdainfully.
"Daring to call me an ant? Heh, that's truly overestimating yourself!"
"You, a mere worthless in-law, don't tell me you're so ignorant to think just by seeking the Holy Doctor's granddaughter, you can surely cure Second Lady Mu's illness, then Old Li gets my two mines, and you believe he can compete with our Qian Family?"
"That's utterly delusional!"
"There are ranks even among Holy Doctors, let alone you're only seeking a granddaughter of one. But the two I've invited are Hidden World Holy Doctors from the Three Great Divine Doctors."
"So, you should be crying and praying right now, not here pretending to be all that!"
Done speaking,
Qin Feng just gave him a faint glance and then stopped bothering with him.
"You…"
Qian Tianao's face flushed with anger.
To think he was scorned and ignored by such a lowly in-law.
He wanted to move forward and curse Qin Feng.
At that moment,
Mu Jiangyue returned from outside, immediately capturing his attention!
She was so beautiful.
Like a fairy on earth, stunning beyond measure!
Even the two usually prideful Hidden World Holy Doctors he had invited unconsciously widened their eyes, shocked by her beauty.
"Mr. Qin, he is the Mu Family Patriarch, Mu Jiangyue."
Lord Dog whispered.
Seeing Qin Feng with a surprised look, he thought Qin Feng was also captivated by Mu Jiangyue's astonishing beauty and smirked triumphantly, "See, I was right! She's truly a great beauty!"
At this moment,
When Mu Jiangyue saw Qin Feng, she was momentarily stunned, recognized him, frowned, and said, "You shameless wretch, what are you doing in our Mu Family!"
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding…"
Qin Feng awkwardly chuckled twice, not expecting that even in the dark, she'd recognize him.
"Still trying to argue? Get out!"
Mu Jiangyue said angrily.
Everyone was puzzled, not knowing what had happened.
Lord Dog hurriedly stepped forward to explain, "Miss Mu, he's the doctor I invited for Second Lady Mu."
"Doctor?"
Mu Jiangyue was slightly startled.
She was concerned about her sister Mu Jianglin's illness. Hearing he was a doctor, she restrained herself.
Lord Dog, still confused, asked Qin Feng, "What on earth happened?"
"Oh, remember I went to the bathroom just now? She accidentally saw me," Qin Feng said helplessly with a shrug.
Damn!!
Lord Dog was dumbfounded.
No wonder Mu Jiangyue, upon seeing him, looked like she wanted to kill him!
She saw him; it should be an honor, yet here he is looking so wronged, no wonder she wants to kill him...
At this moment,
Not only did Mu Jiangyue want to kill him.
Even Qian Tianao and others were grinding their teeth with hatred, wanting to chew him up slowly in their mouths.
It was like a piece of flawless jade had been dirtied by him.
Meanwhile, Qin Feng still looked innocent.
Obviously, he was the one at a loss, so why does it seem everyone hates him?
"Alright, it's getting late, let's all proceed to the diagnosis," said Uncle Mu at this point.
Soon,
Everyone arrived at the door to Second Lady Mu's chamber.
Mu Jiangyue said, "We'll start with the diagnosis tonight, followed by treatment tomorrow. Of course, if it can be treated right away, that would be best."
The door opened.
Qin Feng and the others walked into the room one by one.
Upon entering,
They were greeted by a strange fragrance, like wildflowers and grass, refreshing to the heart...
