Chapter 187 The Threat

Master Qing burst into laughter upon hearing this.

"Excellent idea!"

Master Qing patted Yuwensheng's shoulder and praised him, "Of all my adopted sons, you are the smartest. Every time we face a critical moment, you manage to come up with brilliant solutions!"

"Thank you for your praise, Father. It is my duty to devise plans for you," Yuwensheng replied humbly.

"I'll leave this matter to you. Once it's accomplished, I will not treat you unfairly," Master Qing stated.

"Thank you, Father!"

Yu Wensheng quickly said, "I will give it my all to ruin Jiang Yi's reputation and avenge you, Father."

Master Qing nodded in satisfaction.

Yu Wensheng possessed a bit of cunning, and Master Qing always sought his advice.

Yu Wensheng had used his cleverness to resolve many troubles for Master Qing, thus earning his deep favor.

This caused resentment among Master Qing's other adopted sons, all eager to find an opportunity to ostracize Yu Wensheng.

"Yu Wensheng, this matter is of great importance. How confident are you that you can deal with Jiang Yi?" one of the adopted sons inquired.

"I have a hundred percent certainty!"

A hint of smugness appeared on Yu Wensheng's face.

"This time, even if Jiang Yi doesn't die, he'll lose a layer of skin!"

Upon hearing this, the surrounding adopted sons all sneered.

"Yu Wensheng, you're quite boastful. Jiang Yi is not someone to be trifled with easily."

"If you mess up Father's important plans, we won't let you off."

All the adopted sons turned their attention to Yu Wensheng.

They knew that if Yu Wensheng succeeded this time, Master Qing would favor him even more in the future.

As for them, the adopted sons, they would gradually be neglected by Master Qing.

"Yu Wensheng, you must sign a military pledge. If you fail to handle Jiang Yi, you must be severely punished!" another adopted son demanded.

"Fine, if I fail to accomplish this, I'll give you my life!" Yu Wensheng said with a proud expression.

"You said it!"

All the adopted sons focused their gaze on Yu Wensheng.

"Of course!" Yu Wensheng said with a cold sneer.

Yu Wensheng was highly confident this time.

In Yu Wensheng's view, he could use the Inspector General's forces to eliminate Jiang Yi.

He had witnessed Wu Chengwen's medical skills and was absolutely certain he could deal with Jiang Yi.

"Alright!"

Master Qing glanced at everyone and said, "I believe Yu Wensheng has the ability. After he deals with Jiang Yi, I will host a celebratory banquet for him and reward him handsomely. I trust in Yu Wensheng's capabilities."

Yu Wensheng was overjoyed to hear this and quickly thanked Master Qing.

Master Qing's other adopted sons, however, were quite displeased. It was always Yu Wensheng who achieved merit, while they were relegated to assisting him.

Master Qing was an old fox and naturally knew what his adopted sons were thinking.

However, in order to cultivate Yu Wensheng as his successor, he could not afford to worry about their feelings. The opportunity to earn merit could only be given to Yu Wensheng.

Yu Wensheng needed prestige to inherit Master Qing's legacy in the future.

Jiang Yi strolled through the city center. As he was about to leave, a car suddenly sped towards him.

Seeing it was about to hit him, Jiang Yi dodged swiftly.

He immediately recognized that it was intentional.

Jiang Yi felt quite annoyed.

The car stopped, the door opened, and a woman emerged.

This woman wore sunglasses and a short skirt.

Jiang Yi took a closer look and realized he recognized her. It was the same woman he had seen practicing the Fo Yun Needle technique in the park yesterday, named Wei Xiaomei.

He hadn't expected this woman to be so vengeful that she would try to hit him with her car.

"It's you! My apologies, my driving skills aren't very good. I didn't hit you, did I?"

Wei Xiaomei feigned innocence.

Jiang Yi ignored Wei Xiaomei and turned to leave.

He had no desire to engage with this kind of woman.

Seeing Jiang Yi about to leave, Wei Xiaomei immediately caught up and said, "I'm serious. My driving skills are indeed poor. I still haven't gotten my driver's license. If you don't believe me, just look at my car."

Jiang Yi glanced at Wei Xiaomei's car.

The vehicle was covered in scratch marks from collisions.

What was once a luxury car was now battered beyond recognition.

"See? I wasn't lying! I really didn't do it on purpose just now. Can I apologize to you?" Wei Xiaomei looked at Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi's brows furrowed slightly.

He knew Wei Xiaomei couldn't be trusted, and the car might not even be hers.

"Alright, don't be angry. Let me treat you to a meal as an apology!" Wei Xiaomei said to Jiang Yi with a smile.

"I'm not hungry!"

Jiang Yi replied.

"I came to see you for something important."

Wei Xiaomei stated, "My grandfather knows about your astonishing medical skills and asked me to invite you to our home as a guest. You can ignore me, but you can't ignore my grandfather, can you?"

"My grandfather is a respected figure in the medical community. Inviting you to our home for a meal is an honor for you."

"What is the background of your Wei family?" Jiang Yi asked curiously.

"I'm afraid you'll be shocked if I tell you!"

Wei Xiaomei said with a proud look, "My grandfather is the private physician to the Inspector General of Jiang Province. Our Wei family has been in the medical profession for generations, and we are naturally a prestigious and esteemed family."

Jiang Yi smiled slightly upon hearing this. It seemed the Wei family had a significant background.

Given Wei Zhong's abilities, it wasn't surprising that he was the private physician to the Inspector General of Jiang Province.

However, in his eyes, the Wei family was nothing remarkable.

"I don't have time!" Jiang Yi directly refused.

This surprised Wei Xiaomei. She hadn't expected Jiang Yi to refuse.

After all, no one had ever refused Wei Xiaomei, let alone Wei Zhong, who was quite a figure in Jiang Province.

Wei Xiaomei was unhappy now.

"If you don't go, you will regret it!"

Wei Xiaomei declared, "The Inspector General of Jiang Province is desperately seeking someone to treat his daughter. He's offering immense wealth and status. You'll only have this opportunity if my grandfather recommends you!"

Jiang Yi couldn't help but chuckle upon hearing this.

A few days prior, Bai Zhen had also asked him to treat someone, but he had declined.

Now, Wei Zhong intended to recommend him to treat the daughter of the Inspector General of Jiang Province, but Jiang Yi still wasn't interested.

"I'll ask you one last time, are you going or not? You should think carefully. If you miss this opportunity, you'll regret it for the rest of your life and end up living an ordinary, unremarkable existence," Wei Xiaomei said.

"No!"

After speaking, Jiang Yi turned and left directly.

Wei Xiaomei stamped her feet in anger. She had spoken to Jiang Yi for so long, yet he still refused, which was completely beyond her expectations.

"You just wait!"

A strange smile spread across Wei Xiaomei's face.

Jiang Yi pretended not to hear her, hailed a taxi, and prepared to return to the villa.

As they neared the villa complex, Jiang Yi got out of the car, intending to buy some cigarettes before going back.
