353: Chapter 353 [Conditional Exchange] Fourth Update!
Fourth Release!
“Young Ye, you must cure your Uncle Li’s illness!” Chu Renkuang instructed.
“No problem, Elder Chu!” Ye Chenfeng nodded in agreement.
Ye Chenfeng suddenly hugged Chu Qingxue and touched her back as he smiled and said, “Qingxue, you go back first.
Wait for me tonight!”
At the final farewell, Ye Chenfeng did not forget to throw a flirtatious look at Chu Qingxue.
Regarding Ye Chenfeng’s behavior, Li Qiuming just smiled, while his son, Li Tianyuan, had a gloomy face, his eyes like those of a Poison Snake, staring deadly at Ye Chenfeng, as if brewing some kind of scheme.
Oriental Pearl Hotel, the top tycoon hotel in Huahai, it was not surprising at all that jewel tycoon Li Qiuming lived here.
On the way here, Ye Chenfeng secretly checked out the old fox Li Qiuming.
This guy originally had quite the background huh!
Li Qiuming, a native from the south of Divine Land, came from a peasant background, joined the military early, and after his service he moved to Macau to struggle.
Starting from the bottom, doing jobs like bricklayer, waiter, anything.
Later, he worked in a jewelry store where his work capability stood out and he climbed up the ranks, eventually leaving to start his own business, gradually growing it by swallowing up his former employer, using vast connections and an unstoppable momentum to reach the position of Macau’s top jewel tycoon!
Moreover, jewelry was only his side business, his main hold was on two-thirds of Macau’s gambling industry.
Of course, there were some not-so-public secrets about this guy, such as his ruthless tactics and absorbing his former employer among other things!
This man is not simple!
This is a presidential suite, guarded by four skilled men at the entrance, and many more hidden experts around, showing how cautious Li Qiuming was!
Li Tianyuan was staying in another room.
Li Qiuming sent him away, and this year he deeply glanced at Ye Chenfeng before leaving.
“Alright, you guys wait here!
Ye and I are going in!”
“Master?” The expert who had been following Li Qiuming seemed hesitant, watching Ye Chenfeng warily.
Li Qiuming gave him a stern look, “Don’t you trust Young Ye?
He is Elder Chu’s grandson-in-law, nothing will happen!”
“Oh!”
The man bowed his head, remaining silent.
Humph, little brat, if I wanted to take action, could you stop me?
Don’t be ridiculous!
“Young Ye, tell me about my condition?”
Entering the room, which exuded a splendid and luxurious atmosphere, with every corner meticulously designed as if everything was intended to be turned into gold.
While surveying the room, Ye Chenfeng said, “Ever since I entered the box earlier, I have been observing Uncle Li; sunken eyes, heavy eye bags, veins bursting at the nose bridge, terrifyingly pale skin, and no beard.
Plus, you deliberately deepen your voice when speaking, which is naturally very high-pitched; it is a clear case of Yin overpowering Yang.
Moreover, I have also noticed that Uncle Li and Li Tianyuan share no father-son characteristics, leading me to conclude that Uncle Li is infertile and Li Tianyuan is not even his biological son!”
“Worthy of being Chu Qingxue’s boyfriend!
The traditional method of diagnosis through inspection indeed has been utilized to its utmost!” Li Qiuming, with a face full of smiles, sized up Ye Chenfeng and praised him.
Ye Chenfeng almost made a nose-picking gesture, How does my medical expertise relate to whether I’m Chu Qingxue’s boyfriend or not!
“It must have been about when you were thirty-five or thirty-six years old that you started showing these symptoms!” Ye Chenfeng continued calmly.
“Gah!”
Li Qiuming was truly shocked.
Ye Chenfeng even knew this, he couldn’t help but say, “My business didn’t start booming until I was thirty.
Before that, I was always poor and had never even thought about settling down, I even had just one girlfriend.
It was during my prime at thirty-five or thirty-six years old that I suddenly wanted to start a family.
But it was then that I discovered I had contracted a disease that all men fear, turning me into a man who looks fine but isn’t functional!”
“I see, Li Tianyuan must have been adopted by you afterward!” Ye Chenfeng nodded.
“That’s right, how could I let my vast estate go without an heir, so I adopted from an orphanage!”
“All these years have passed, Uncle Li must be used to it by now?
Then why are you still seeking doctors for treatment?” Ye Chenfeng voiced his confusion.
Li Qiuming smiled, “This isn’t I came to Jiangnan to see if I could collaborate with the Chu Corporation, which belongs to Qingxue.
I heard from Elder Chu that you healed his gunshot wound, and are truly a Divine Doctor, so I thought I’d check on that, not expecting you to actually bring me a surprise!
You know, man to man, even after twenty years, who doesn’t want to be a real man!
“Haha, don’t worry, Uncle Li, I can treat your condition!” Ye Chenfeng affirmed.
Li Qiuming, being a clever man, picked up on the underlying meaning in Ye Chenfeng’s words and couldn’t help but smile, “Ye, if you have any demands or want any compensation, just name it, as long as I can do it!”
Ye Chenfeng deliberately put on a thoughtful expression, pondering for a long time, “Uncle Li, I’m particularly curious about the ancient tomb you mentioned, especially about any life-restoring panaceas that might be inside, you know what I mean!”
“Ye, are you wanting to know the location of the ancient tomb?” Li Qiuming asked with a smile, his gaze fixed on Ye Chenfeng, watching his reaction.
Like Li Qiuming, who had spent years in the business world, was best at analyzing people’s psychology from their little actions, so he kept observing.
“Yes!
Hearing that it could bring the dead back to life, I just wanted to research it!”
To Li Qiuming’s disappointment, he couldn’t read anything from him, as Ye Chenfeng spoke plainly, even eagerly rubbing his hands together.
However, this didn’t make Li Qiuming drop his wariness towards Ye Chenfeng.
Of course, Ye Chenfeng didn’t get his hopes up, dealing with such a cunning fox needed patience, he couldn’t rush.
Earlier Ye Chenfeng had already surveyed every corner of the room, but found nothing.
But that didn’t mean it wasn’t there, this old fox must have hidden it somewhere else!
So Ye Chenfeng purposely hinted his interest in the tomb’s treasures, making the old fox suspicious, and once Li Qiuming became vigilant, he would surely guard against it, and that’s when he might expose a flaw.
“I’m afraid that’s not possible, because I don’t know where the ancient tomb is!” Li Qiuming, the old fox, dodged the question with a single statement.
“Ah?
You don’t know either?” Ye Chenfeng pretended to be puzzled, since he believed Li Qiuming held the key to where the tomb was.
“Uncle Li, I heard that one generally needs some sort of key to open ancient tombs, you wouldn’t happen to have the key, would you?” Ye Chenfeng asked.
As long as Li Qiuming had it, he would use curing Li Qiuming as a condition to exchange for the key.
