Days of Living with My Sister-in-Law-Chapter 78: Scolding Li Xinghe

"Doctor Chen, I had no idea!" He Lisan exclaimed, completely bewildered.

He had come here just to ask Chen Xiaobei to treat his sister’s illness. Who could have expected an old man to show up just moments after he had left? Although the old man looked like a sage, an otherworldly hermit, who knew if he could actually cure anyone?

As the most important member of the He family, Zi Xuan held the key to its continued prosperity. If she died because of incompetent treatment, it would be all over.

At this thought, He Lisan shot forward. "Hey, who are you? What do you think you’re doing!"

But before he could even grab the elder’s sleeve, a man in his forties suddenly blocked his path. "Insolence! How dare you interrupt Elder Jiao’s diagnosis? Do you have a death wish?"

A commanding aura erupted from the man, sending He Lisan tumbling backward.

Chen Xiaobei squinted. This man’s Realm is at least Mysterious Rank Fifth Grade. The sudden appearance of such an expert in tiny Mangniu Town is certainly strange.

As he was pondering, a laugh echoed from outside the door. "HAHAHA, Magistrate He, you can rest assured! Elder Jiao is a Divine Doctor who has served my Li Family for many years. No matter how complicated the case, it’s a simple matter for him to handle. Honestly, you didn’t need to come all the way to Mangniu Town. If your daughter was ill, you could have just come to me directly!"

Following the voice, Chen Xiaobei saw He Yongkun approaching with an elderly man in his sixties or seventies. The elder wore a black Tang suit, his hair was stark white, and his sharp eyes radiated the domineering aura of a man in power.

Chen Xiaobei frowned. He didn’t recognize the old man but felt an immediate sense of unease.

Just then, Qiu Xingcai murmured in surprise, "It’s him?"

"Who is that?" Chen Xiaobei asked in a low voice.

"Li Xinghe!" Qiu Xingcai said with a frown. "He’s the top dog of Songshan’s underworld. In all of Songshan, aside from the mysterious Zhao Family, there isn’t a single person who dares to cross him! I can’t believe he’d bring his family’s personal Divine Doctor to treat Miss He. Clearly, he has ulterior motives!"

"Xiaobei—" Qiu Xingcai was incredibly nervous now. "I don’t know how good your medical skills are, but I advise you to leave, quickly."

"Why?"

"Why else!" Qiu Xingcai said anxiously. "If you insist on getting involved, you will definitely offend Li Xinghe. It won’t end well for you, whether you cure Miss He or not! Xiaobei, you can’t get mixed up in this. We can’t afford to provoke a powerful man like Li Xinghe!"

Qiu Xingcai’s face was filled with worry, and her small frame trembled.

But Chen Xiaobei just laughed. "Xingcai, you really don’t understand me at all. The Li Family and I are already irreconcilable enemies! Since Li Xinghe came here on his own accord, I suppose I’ll have a good long chat with him today."

"What... what did you just say?" Qiu Xingcai’s pretty face went pale; she was so scared she could have wet herself.

Chen Xiaobei and the Li Family were mortal enemies? Surely this had to be some kind of sick joke!

Under Qiu Xingcai’s astonished gaze, Chen Xiaobei strode forward with his hands clasped behind his back. Giving his opponent no face at all, he spoke first. "So, you’re Li Xinghe?"

Li Xinghe’s old face froze. He had never imagined anyone would dare to speak to him with such disrespect. "And who are you?" he asked, his expression darkening.

Just as He Yongkun was about to make an introduction, Chen Xiaobei pointed at himself. "Well now, it seems that grandson of yours is completely useless! I beat him to a pulp, yet he didn’t even send my picture to you, old man! As for me, I make no secret of who I am. My name is Chen Xiaobei!" 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

"You are Chen Xiaobei?" Li Xinghe’s gaze instantly turned razor-sharp.

"What’s wrong? Don’t I look the part?" Chen Xiaobei shrugged and sneered. "You know, Li Xinghe, I have to be honest. I’m actually impressed with you! Your grandson’s dick is completely ruined, and you have a revered doctor in your own household. Shouldn’t treating him have been your first priority? But no, you rushed over here to steal my patient. Words fail me when it comes to you!"

"Chen Xiaobei, you dare curse me?" Li Xinghe’s face turned purple with rage. In his nearly seventy years of life, he had never met a young man as outrageously arrogant as Chen Xiaobei.

The others present were even more shocked; they were all completely stunned!

Especially Qiu Xingcai. Though her face was ashen, her heart was pounding in her chest. That was Li Xinghe, the number one boss of the Songshan underworld! And yet this incredibly powerful figure was being dressed down so thoroughly by Chen Xiaobei.

Qiu Xingcai even began to wonder. Is this man before me really the Chen Xiaobei I know? Could some powerful expert have possessed his body?

"You brat, you’re courting death!"

At that moment, the Mysterious Rank Fifth Grade expert charged forward.

A look of contempt flashed in Chen Xiaobei’s eyes. Although this guy is the strongest opponent I’ve faced so far, he’s nothing special in my eyes.

But before he could make a move, He Yongkun spoke. "Stop!"

He might not practice Martial Arts, but his aura of authority was not something an ordinary Martial Artist could withstand. The man stopped in his tracks instantly.

Even Li Xinghe waved his hand. "That’s enough, A Zheng. Step back for now."

Then, Li Xinghe said coldly, "Chen Xiaobei, while there is deep-seated hatred between our families, today is not the time for a fight. Miss He is still unconscious. By causing such a ruckus here, are you trying to keep her from waking up?"

The accusation was completely baseless, but He Yongkun still frowned. He finally said, "Doctor Chen, I ask that you both set aside your feud for the time being. Zi Xuan is extremely important to the He family. Nothing can happen to her."

Fearing a misunderstanding, He Lisan leaned close to Chen Xiaobei’s ear to explain. "Doctor Chen, my sister has caught the eye of a very influential figure in the city. If she successfully marries into his family, our He family will soar to new heights. That’s why my father is so anxious! I suspect Li Xinghe heard the news and brought his doctor here to curry favor with that influential figure. But honestly, I have more faith in your skills. So please, Doctor Chen, you must cure Xiaoxuan. If you do, you will be the great benefactor of our He family!"

"Alright, alright. Let me take a look," Chen Xiaobei nodded, finally turning his attention to He Zixuan on the bed.

She was about 165 centimeters tall, clad in a long white dress. Her soft hair, much like Xi Yao’s, cascaded down to her waist. Her skin was fair, and her breasts were of a modest size. Though not a peerless beauty, she was the very picture of a porcelain doll! Girls like her typically didn’t have strong opinions of their own, which made them suitable candidates to be the young mistress of a great family. This was because they were generally without ambition and disliked fighting for favor out of jealousy.

Just then, a faint, cold aura emanated from He Zixuan’s body.

Chen Xiaobei’s brow furrowed immediately. Seven Extremes Cold Yin Powder? How could He Zixuan be afflicted with such a bizarre poison?
