Chapter 11 The Ignorant Child

Liang Dongyue turned his head to look at Li Ruiliang, reproaching him, "He, a mere ignorant child, might know only a smattering of acupuncture."

"By sheer fluke, he reduced the old man's stagnation, how dare you let him recklessly administer acupuncture to Mr. Li."

"If something were to happen in the future, who would bear the responsibility?"

Li Ruiliang, seeing the atmosphere getting somewhat awkward, hastily said, "Mr. Qin also has considerable medical skill!"

"When you both have time, you could discuss and research together."

However, Liang Dongyue let out a cold laugh, "I've been practicing medicine for decades, saving countless lives; how is this rural doctor worthy of discussing medicine with me?"

"You must know that traditional Chinese medicine is profound and requires years of continuous practice and research."

"At his age, he is only fit to be an apprentice beside me."

Qin Yu couldn't help but frown, "Having practiced medicine for so many years, can't you see that Mr. Li's constitution is unsuitable for heavy supplementation?"

Liang Dongyue left in a huff, "That's simply preposterous."

"I have thoroughly examined Mr. Li's condition; it isn't as serious as you described that day."

"It was just a bit of congestion in the brain leading to the unconsciousness, and he could have been sent to the hospital promptly."

"You deliberately made Mr. Li's condition sound so serious, I believe everyone can judge for themselves what your intentions are."

Liang Dongyue was a pricey doctor brought from the provincial city to tend to Mr. Li's health by Li Family.

Naturally, he wouldn't let a rural doctor steal his thunder and credit.

Seeing the two men at loggerheads, Mr. Li quickly spoke out to smooth things over, "Both of you are saviors who saved my life, honored guests of the Li Family. There's no need for a pointless quarrel."

Liang Dongyue snorted coldly, giving Qin Yu a provocative look.

At that moment, a young man brought over a bowl of medicinal soup and set it before Mr. Li.

This was the Qi and Blood Powder Liang Dongyue had referred to, and Mr. Li drank it without a second thought.

Witnessing this, Qin Yu's brows furrowed even deeper.

If this continued, Mr. Li was bound to have serious trouble.

At this time, the Li Family had immense trust in Liang Dongyue and found Qin Yu's words somewhat alarmist.

After all, they could see for themselves the improvement in the old master's condition after taking the Qi and Blood Powder.

Qin Yu could only leave, feeling helpless.

Feng Yu and Feng Jie also arrived at the Li Family Manor.

Both had invitations, and they made their way unimpeded to the pool where the young people were gathered.

Elegantly dressed handsome men and beautiful women clustered in groups, and there were many swimming and frolicking in the pool.

The Li Family's banquet that evening hosted many guests, with the young and attractive gathered here.

Their elder generation mingled in another garden area.

Surrounding them were tables laden with an array of exquisite alcohol and food, reveling in luxury.

Feng Yu had also brought several friends and close pals.

Each was ecstatic, taking photos and posting on social networks!

"This is my first time at a high-society gathering!"

"Xiao Yu, you're truly going to soar high this time," her close pal said with undeniable envy.

"I always said marrying that poor slob was a waste of your potential!"

"Luckily you cut your losses in time!"

"Once you become Mrs. Gao, you'll have to introduce us to some wealthy heirs!"

The group of glamorous women joked with each other.

"Let's not talk about that loser and spoil our mood."

"This is the circle we belong to from now on!"

"People like him are just meant to be car-hailing drivers all their lives!"

Feng Yu said disdainfully.

"Haha, let's not talk about him anymore."

"Today, everyone here is either rich or of noble status."

"We've got to give it our all!"

The gold-diggers' faces showed unadulterated excitement.

Here, Feng Jie and Feng Yu had their eyes opened to the ultimate opulence of high society.

The attire, conversations, and demeanor of everyone around them made their hearts yearn even more for the life of the upper crust.

.......

Qin Yu arrived at the pool.

Dressed in street-stall clothing, he stood out awkwardly in this setting.

"Hey, you, come here a moment," a sexy-dressed woman by the table called out to Qin Yu.

Qin Yu walked over, puzzled.

"Could you help me carry some food?" she asked.

Her attitude was not overly commanding.

Qin Yu, having nothing better to do, picked up the food and followed the woman to the pool area.

The way was a bit crowded, and the sexy woman's body brushed against Qin Yu occasionally.

The feel of her body was indeed tender and warm.

There were many chairs and tables around the pool for guests to rest, and the woman asked Qin Yu to place the food on a table.

The sexy woman pulled out a red bill, handed it to Qin Yu with a smile, and said, "Thank you, that was kind of you."

"No need," Qin Yu declined, waving his hand.

"Xiao Yu, isn't that Qin Yu over there?"

"What's he doing here?" one of the glamorous women suddenly spotted the shabbily dressed figure by the pool and couldn't help but express her surprise.

"So, are you here to serve tea and water to people?"

Feng Jie was also very curious.

The two sisters looked at each other and saw a hint of disdain in each other's eyes.

Thinking about how one day she could take over the City Security Construction Company and become a billionaire.

While Qin Yu could only do the most menial jobs.

A sense of superiority arose in Feng Jie's heart.

"Yo, have you come to the Li Family to be a lowly servant?"

Feng Jie walked over quickly and started taunting, "If they give you a tip, you just take it."

"You've fallen to this point, why keep pretending?"

Qin Yu turned around and saw the two of them, a look of surprise in his eyes.

He really hadn't expected to encounter Feng Yu and her brother here.

Feng Yu was a beauty, and today she was dressed in an expensive gown, her meticulous preparation made her even more charming and alluring.

But her beautiful face bore a thick look of disdain.

"You say wealth and glory are within easy reach, just to come to the Li Family to be a lowly servant at their beck and call?"

Feng Yu couldn't help but laugh.

"You're thinking too much. I am here by invitation to attend the banquet," Qin Yu said expressionlessly.

"By invitation?" Feng Jie simply didn't believe such nonsense.

Narrowing his eyes, he said, "I heard that today the old man Li specially invited a mysterious guest. You're not going to say it's you, are you?"

Qin Yu said lightly, "It is me."

Feng Yu and several of her girlfriends looked at him as if he were a fool.

This was too shameless.

Too ridiculous!

He was the Li Family's special guest.

As if the Li Family had gone mad.

Feng Jie burst into laughter, "I think your body has recovered, but now your brain is crippled."

"Do you know what kind of towering presence the Li Family is?"

"Did Mr. Li invite you to perform a monkey show for everyone?"

Feng Yu shook her head in disappointment, "Now can you only maintain that fragile self-esteem by telling big lies?"

"It's preposterous."

Qin Yu kept his expression neutral and turned to leave.

He didn't want to make a scene at the Li Family's banquet.

But Feng Jie didn't want to let go of the chance to flaunt his sense of superiority so easily.

He blocked Qin Yu's way, purposely raising his voice.

"Everyone, pay attention! This person here is the lowest of the low in society, a poor loser. I don't know how he sneaked in."

"Make sure to keep an eye on your valuables."

"There's no telling whether such a person might be tempted by wealth and have sticky fingers."

The handsome men and beautiful women around noticed the argument, initially amused they watched the scene.

After hearing Feng Jie shout, they subconsciously checked their belongings, their faces showing hints of wariness.

"With such strict security at the Li Family, how on earth did this person get in?"

"There's a way for snakes and a path for rats; we really should be careful."

"Let the security staff throw this person out."

"How can we allow such people to stay at a high-class gathering like this?"

A group of handsome men and beautiful women clamored, feeling that their own status was being lowered just by being in the presence of such a lowly person.

At this time, Gao Yuanxiang walked over leisurely, his tone mocking as he spoke, "If we let him go now, he'll probably be pleased as punch."

Accompanying Gao Yuanxiang, there were also more than ten tall and sturdy bodyguards.

"It's Young Master Gao, even Young Master Gao can't bear to watch this."

"Young Master Gao, what do you mean by that?"

Seeing Gao Yuanxiang, everyone was obsequiously greeting him.

Although the people present were either rich or noble, compared to the Gao Family, one of the top ten families, there was still a significant difference.

Feng Yu was even affectionately clinging to Gao Yuanxiang's arm, her face full of bliss.

Gao Yuanxiang glanced at Qin Yu and told everyone, "I just went swimming, and I left my Vacheron Constantin watch, worth more than seven million, on the table. When I came back up, the watch was gone."

"I suspect someone took it on the sly."

Qin Yu frowned tightly. Gao Yuanxiang's contemptuous look made him very uncomfortable.

Immediately after, Gao Yuanxiang took out his phone, "However, my watch has accurate GPS tracking, and it shows that the watch is still at this location."

The people inside the swimming pool shouted, "Young Master Gao, we're all in swimsuits here; there's nowhere to hide a watch."

Indeed, at the poolside, most of the women were in bikinis.

The men were in swim trunks, making it impossible to hide a watch.

Someone suggested gathering all the wait staff and searching them.

After all, in their eyes, the guests were all wealthy and noble young masters and ladies, unlikely to stoop to theft.

Only the poor and lowly wait staff were the most likely culprits.

Although the wait staff were discontent, they lacked the courage and power to resist against these arrogant and overbearing second-generation rich.

To prove their innocence to Gao Yuanxiang, they could only line up and allow Gao Yuanxiang's bodyguards to search them.

In the end, nothing was found.

"Now, you're the only one left," Gao Yuanxiang said, looking at Qin Yu with a smirk.
