Seeing the change in Qin Chuan’s expression, Murong Mingyue asked in confusion, "Why aren’t you answering the phone?"
Qin Chuan looked at her and said, "It’s a call from Ye Tiancheng."
Murong Mingyue was astonished, "Why would he call you?"
But it was only a moment of shock before she composed herself and said solemnly, "It seems my guess was right, the one who bid on your offer of service just now was Ye Tiancheng."
"Him calling you at this time must be to persuade you to give up saving Ye Tiannan."
While they were talking, the call had already disconnected automatically.
"However, how did Ye Tiancheng know the Mysterious Doctor is you?"
Murong Mingyue had already concluded that it was Ye Tiancheng who had bid on Qin Chuan’s offer of service.
Qin Chuan didn’t speak, feeling that it wasn’t as simple as Murong Mingyue had guessed.
Previously in East Sea, Qin Chuan had spoiled Ye Tiancheng’s plans and had even killed the Xuan Wu Envoy from Ye Tiancheng’s faction.
According to the Ye Family’s rules, since Qin Chuan had killed the Xuan Wu Envoy, the Ye Family would definitely not let him off easily.
Yet until now, no one from the Ye Family had come looking for trouble, clearly, Ye Tiancheng had suppressed the matter.
And this time, regarding the auction for the Mysterious Doctor’s services, aside from Qin Chuan and Murong Mingyue, there wasn’t a third person who knew about it.
Thinking this, Qin Chuan said, "This Ye Tiancheng is indeed not simple, he actually knows that I am the Mysterious Doctor."
Murong Mingyue immediately became anxious and quickly said, "Qin Chuan, I really didn’t reveal to anyone that you’re the Mysterious Doctor..."
She hadn’t finished her sentence when Qin Chuan waved his hand to interrupt, saying, "No one leaked the news, he guessed it himself."
"He guessed it himself?"
Murong Mingyue said in surprise, "How is that possible?"
If she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, she would have never believed that such a young Divine Doctor like Qin Chuan could exist in this world.
As they were speaking, Qin Chuan’s phone ringtone rang out again.
Upon answering the call, he heard a familiar voice, "Mr. Qin, I’ve sent you such a big gift, you shouldn’t refuse to meet with me, right?"
Qin Chuan frowned, having understood the other party’s intention, but still pretended ignorance, "I haven’t received any big gift, Third Master, whatever you have to say can be said over the phone!"
"Haha!"
Ye Tiancheng laughed heartily, not angry, and continued with a smile, "Mr. Qin can fool others, but not me."
"A gift of two hundred and ten hundred million that I’ve given to Mr. Qin, not to mention the lack of necessity to specify someone else for Mr. Qin to treat, isn’t that a big gift?"
Qin Chuan had answered the call on speakerphone, so Murong Mingyue had heard everything Ye Tiancheng had said as well.
As expected, she had guessed right, it was Ye Tiancheng who had made the bid, and by openly stating the lack of need for a specific person to be treated by Qin Chuan, he was clearly also making a threat.
Qin Chuan naturally caught the deeper meaning in the other party’s words, which was to pay two hundred and ten hundred million to make him agree not to cure Ye Tiannan.
Although Ye Tiancheng hadn’t explicitly stated what he wanted to negotiate with Qin Chuan about, his few simple words had already made his intentions clear.
Qin Chuan said expressionlessly, "I don’t have any acquaintance with you, and since you’ve bid on my service, if you don’t currently need my assistance, then wait until you do need me and contact me then."
He was unwilling to accept Ye Tiancheng’s "big gift". After all, if Ye Tiancheng hadn’t joined the competition, even if he couldn’t have ultimately bid the sky-high sum of two hundred and ten hundred million, he still could have bid a sky-high price of a hundred and sixty hundred million.
In hindsight, it was Ye Tiancheng who had disrupted Qin Chuan’s plans.
"Hehe!"
Ye Tiancheng suddenly laughed, but this laughter sounded sinister no matter how one heard it.
He suddenly said, "Mr. Qin, I still hope to have a face-to-face conversation with you."
Murong Mingyue hurriedly made eye signals to Qin Chuan not to agree.
Although she had great confidence in Qin Chuan’s strength, she also had some understanding of Ye Tiancheng.
She feared it was a trap and meeting with Ye Tiancheng would be to Qin Chuan’s detriment.
Ye Tiancheng wasn’t in a rush and patiently waited for Qin Chuan’s reply.
After a full thirty seconds of silence, Qin Chuan finally spoke up, "Time? Place?"
Seeing Qin Chuan had agreed, Murong Mingyue’s expression changed drastically.
Through the phone came Ye Tiancheng’s hearty laughter, "Mr. Qin is so straightforward! In half an hour, I’ll be waiting for Mr. Qin at the Longdu Grand Hotel!"
After saying this, he hung up the phone.
Only then did Murong Mingyue speak anxiously, "How could you agree to meet with Ye Tiancheng?"
"This must be a trap. After Ye Tiannan’s downfall, Ye Tiancheng has become the foremost person of this generation in the Ye Family, and he has many strong individuals at his disposal."
"Once he decides to make a move on you, even as a King Realm Strong, I’m afraid you won’t have it easy."
She was genuinely worried for Qin Chuan, her eyes reddening in her anxiety.
Qin Chuan felt slightly moved in his heart, he could feel that Murong Mingyue was truly concerned for him.
He smiled faintly, "Don’t worry, not to mention one Ye Tiancheng, even the Ye Family Head, can’t do anything to me."
"But..."
Murong Mingyue was just about to speak again when a knock suddenly sounded at the door.
A servant’s voice came from outside, "Miss, Jiang Chenlong from the Jiang Family seeks an audience with the esteemed senior!"
Murong Mingyue was startled, Jiang Chenlong had actually taken the initiative to come and ask for an audience, she instinctively looked at Qin Chuan.
Seeing Qin Chuan shake his head, she then stepped out of the VIP room.
Indeed, as soon as she stepped outside, she saw the Jiang Family heir, his face full of tension, as cautious as a primary school student about to meet the principal.
"Miss Murong!"
Upon seeing Murong Mingyue come out of the VIP room, Jiang Chenlong hurriedly approached and said, "May I meet with that senior?"
Murong Mingyue forced a smile and replied, "Uncle Jiang, I’m really sorry, but the senior has already left just now."
"He left?"
Jiang Chenlong’s face showed disappointment.
But very quickly, he said earnestly, "Miss Murong, could you tell me where that senior has gone?"
Murong Mingyue shook her head, "Sorry! I’m just a nobody; I wouldn’t dare to ask about the senior’s whereabouts."
Jiang Chenlong suddenly realized, how would such a supreme strong one, who had gravely injured him with just Martial Path Pressure, reveal his itinerary to a mere maiden?
"If Miss Murong sees that senior again, please convey to him that Jiang Chenlong is willing to pay any price to be apprenticed to the senior!"
Jiang Chenlong’s expression was very serious.
This made Murong Mingyue once again realize the strength of Qin Chuan; even a well-connected and influential heir like Jiang Chenlong wanted to become Qin Chuan’s disciple.
After he finished speaking, Jiang Chenlong took out a Jade Pendant that he carried with him and handed it to Murong Mingyue.
Just as Murong Mingyue was about to ask a question, Jiang Chenlong said, "This is my apprenticeship gift for the senior, please make sure to pass it on, Miss Murong."
After saying this, Jiang Chenlong turned and left.
Murong Mingyue was stunned for a moment before regaining her senses. Just as she was about to catch up, Jiang Chenlong leaped out of the window in a single bound, giving Murong Mingyue no chance to refuse.
She shook her head with a bitter smile, "It seems Uncle Jiang has guessed that the senior he mentioned hasn’t left yet."
Just as she was about to enter the private room, the door of the VIP room belonging to the Long Family suddenly opened, and Long Jieming was wheeled out in his wheelchair.
"Miss Murong, you must save me!"
Upon seeing Murong Mingyue, Long Jieming burst into tears, his face full of pleading, "Miss Murong, I beg you to introduce me to that Mysterious Doctor."
"As long as he can cure my legs, I am willing to give everything to repay his great kindness and virtue."
