Fourth Uncle

Chapter 159 The Meeting Starts with Pretension

"Hmph!"

Xu Qingxin's face was deathly cold. "Do you think I'll believe your nonsense? Do you take me for a three-year-old child?"

Zhang Jian also said angrily, "Tan Liangliang, are you sure your friend is really a doctor? He's clearly disrespecting Miss Xu, insulting Miss Xu!"

Tan Liangliang quickly said, "Miss Xu, Brother Zhang, my brother's methods of treating illnesses are different from ordinary people, but he truly has the skill!"

"Get out, get out, now, immediately, at once!"

Xu Qingxin's face was deathly cold.

She had never met someone as shamelessly thick-skinned as Chen Nan.

Chen Nan shrugged. "See, I said I could cure you but you wouldn't let me. If that's the case, why did you ask me if I could cure you in the first place?"

"Do you think I'm willing to come to you?"

"Don't make a fuss, you're just a fleeting beauty in my eyes."

"Although you're not bad-looking, not everyone can win my favor!"

"To put it bluntly, even if you begged me to treat you, I'd be too lazy to bother with you."

He said, glancing at Tan Liangliang, "This time I'm here to see you for my brother's sake. Since that's the case, I'll give you a piece of advice."

"Eat whatever you want, and find yourself a good burial spot."

"Are you saying I'm going to die soon?" Xu Qingxin's lips curled into a cold sneer. "Do you think you're the only one who can cure this kind of illness? Hmph, who do you think you are? You're too full of yourself!"

Chen Nan: "If I'm not mistaken, you feel cold during the day and hot at night, am I right?"

"And then?" Xu Qingxin's expression was blank, but a sense of unease arose in her heart.

Chen Nan was right. She felt extremely cold during the day, as if she were in an ice and snow world.

But at night, she felt like she was in a furnace.

Chen Nan said indifferently, "Your illness has entered its late stage, and your condition will worsen significantly."

"The alternating cold and heat will shift from alternating with daylight."

"To alternating by the hour."

"Alternating by the minute."

"Eventually, you will die."

"Based on the current condition."

"You have less than three days left."

"That's all I have to say, take care of yourself!"

He turned to leave.

But he heard Xu Qingxin's angry voice: "You are too self-important, there are still people who can save my life besides you!"

Chen Nan turned back, revealing a cruel smile. "I'm sorry, those I sentence to death cannot possibly remain in this world."

"You are no exception!"

After Chen Nan left, Xu Qingxin said to Zhang Jian, "You can go too!"

"Okay, call me if you need anything."

After that.

Xu Qingxin picked up her phone and dialed a number, weakly saying, "Fourth Uncle, I'm in Jiuzhou, could you please ask the Old Ancestor to come to the resort?"

Li Ping'an sighed. "Although I'd like to ask the Old Ancestor to treat you, the Old Ancestor never makes house calls, it's his rule, and we shouldn't go against his wishes."

"How about this, I'll have someone queue up for you first thing tomorrow morning."

"Then I'll pick you up, and let the Old Ancestor treat you."

"Mhm, thank you, Fourth Uncle."

Xu Qingxin weakly hung up the phone.

She knew that someone could save her, but she didn't want to rashly use that opportunity.

It was precisely for this reason that she sought out famous doctors, which led to her asking Tan Liangliang to invite Chen Nan over.

And now.

She could only hope that the Old Ancestor could cure her illness!

"Brother Liang, I'm sorry about what happened today!"

In the white SUV, Chen Nan's face was full of apology.

Tan Liangliang casually replied, "Don't say that, it's no big deal. The worst outcome is just quitting the industry!"

"Uh, alright, I won't pretend anymore. Actually, I was never truly in the industry!"

Tan Liangliang trusted Chen Nan's character.

He trusted Chen Nan's medical skills even more.

Since Chen Nan said that he and Xu Qingxin had to be together to change her Yin-Yang energy, then that must be the case.

Therefore, there was no disrespect from Chen Nan towards Xu Qingxin.

Chen Nan felt a surge of emotion. At this point, Tan Liangliang was still comforting him. He smiled and said, "Are you really willing to leave the entertainment industry?"

Tan Liangliang: "Sigh! How should I put it? Those celebrities in the entertainment industry look glamorous, but there are countless ordinary people like me in the industry."

"These people live very, very difficult lives, and they'll do anything to become famous."

"Take a male actor I know, in his twenties, handsome and dashing."

"Anyone who sees him would say he's destined for stardom!"

"And the result?"

"He was noticed by a female capitalist, a very ugly female capitalist."

"That capitalist said, 'I want to be an old cow eating tender grass!'"

"That male actor naturally refused to agree."

"But the result was that he was blacklisted by the other party, forcing him to compromise and become that female capitalist's male servant!"

"Lately, I've been thinking, with my handsome looks, if I really entered the entertainment industry, I'd definitely be noticed by many female capitalists."

"If I compromise, I'd be letting my second brother down."

"If I don't compromise, I'd be letting myself down."

"Actually, it's quite good to quit the industry with this opportunity."

"Sigh, the peaches outside look good, shall we pick some to take back and eat?"

He changed the subject and parked the car by the roadside.

Chen Nan pushed open the car door and walked out. "If you truly want to quit the industry, I support you. If you want to develop in the industry, I can also help you."

Chen Nan didn't know anyone in the entertainment industry, but he was the ancestor of the Outer Eight Sects. As far as he knew, the Red Handkerchief sect had some influence in the industry.

If he found the leader of the Red Handkerchief sect, Xu Xiangan, it wouldn't be difficult to have him groom Tan Liangliang!

"We'll talk about future matters later!"

Tan Liangliang said with a smile, then the two found the owner of the peach orchard, got two baskets, and began picking.

Noon.

Chen Nan took a taxi to the entrance of the Jinxiu Huafu residential complex. His parents were already waiting there with gifts.

After waiting for about ten minutes, Chen Xiazhi and Chen Hanlu, who looked reluctant, also arrived.

Chen Shan called his third brother, Chen Yang, and after getting the detailed address, the family of five headed straight for Fourth Uncle's new home.

Chen Shan instructed, "You all need to keep a low profile later. Even if they say anything unpleasant, don't talk back, especially don't mention living in a villa!"

"If they really find out, then your third uncle's family will surely resent us."

Everyone responded listlessly.

Then, the family of five arrived at Chen Yang's doorstep and rang the doorbell.

"Coming, coming!"

With a cheerful voice, the door opened, revealing a tanned middle-aged woman dressed in gaudy attire.

It was Chen Nan's third aunt, Sun Jingxiang. She smiled and said, "Come, come in, quickly. Come and see if our new home is better than yours."

Chen Nan and the others were all stunned.

Was the first thing they did upon meeting them was to show off?
