Chapter 131 - Doesn’t Recognize Mount Tai (2/2)

Even though he was from the Wei Family of the North Bank, he conceded that he would have to put away his pride before such a mighty power.

Even the collective might of the entire Wei family would not give him the courage to offend such a powerful young man.

“I can’t even believe what I am going to tell you, but here it is: he refused the offer.” Wei Ziqin shook her head with a wry smile.

“He refused?”

Both Wei Zifang and Yin Wanqin could only stare.

The conversation about Chen Fan turned out to be a rollercoaster ride to the two. A sixteen years old boy was not only a skillful doctor, the famous Master Chen but also was offered the position of the Head Sergeant. Worse yet, he refused the offer!

The position was of general rank; people would fight to the death over the job.

“The Wei family had affronted him because of Ziqin; therefore, he is still on the fence.” Wei Ziqin heaved a sigh. “My father said the military is sending four delegates to talk to him personally. I bet those delegates were of the same rank as my father.”

Wei Zifang was utterly speechless.

How was this possible, and who the heck was this boy?

Wei Zifang’s family heritage, Yin Wanqin’s attractive look and her club all seemed like a joke in front of Chen Fan’s attainment.

“Compared to him; I seemed to have achieved nothing, even in my thirties. What right do I have to be so proud.”

Wei Zifang heaved a long sigh.

Yin, Wanqin nodded. She could not fathom how an ordinary looking boy could turn out to be a candidate for a general position; a diamond in the rough.

He had the right to be cold and aloof like all other powerful figures were.

“Brother Zifang, Sister Wanqin.” Wei Ziqin paused a second and then said: “If you can befriend him, I think you should be able to contribute to grandpa’s cause.”

“Really?”

Yin Wanqin asked with surprise as hope also gleamed in Wei Zifang’s eyes.

Wei Zifang and Yin Wanqin were cla.s.smates at the university when they fell in love. Yin Wanqin was from a middle-cla.s.s family and was deemed unworthy to be Wei Zifang’s girlfriend in the eyes of his parents. The old man also stayed out of business and remained indifferent to both sides. In the end, Yin Wanqin left China and stayed at Y country for many years before she finally returned to China. With the financial support from Wei Zifang, she opened up the Zi Yun Club.

Most guests who came to Zi Yun were here under the influence of Wei Zifang.

“Of course! We need his favor and support, but his run-ins with Zipin had ruined our chance of mending the relations.h.i.+p. Even the old man wanted to apologize to him personally. If you can gain Mr.Chen’s support and help the old man, grandpa would definitely stand on your side in terms of your marriage.”

“Sounds like a plan to me!”

Wei Zifang held Yin Wanqin’s expectant gaze and agreed as he gritted his teeth.

What was pride before the love of his life? He would befriend Master Chen even if he had to kneel.

When Wei Zifang returned the stable, they could no longer find Chen Fan.

Soon they saw Chen An and his sister accompanied by their cousin Chen Xu. Wei Zifang came up to them and asked with a smile: “Chen An, where is your other cousin?”

Chen An was surprised by Wei Zifang’s warm smile, plus, the son of the Wei family never called him Chen An, instead, he always addressed him as Xiao Chen in a patronizing manner.

Feeling pleasantly surprised, he replied: “Young Lord Wei, my cousin had already left.”

Chen An paused a second and then asked cautiously: “I want to apologize for his actions earlier. He is from a little county in Jiang Bei and didn’t know better. ”

“He is an uncouth little s.h.i.+t. Lack of discipline, I say,” Chen Xu hissed.

Chen Ning and Chen An quickly agreed with their cousin.

Wei Zifang furrowed his brows and felt he had miscalculated the relations.h.i.+p between Chen An and his cousin. He always liked the young man and wanted to take him under his wing to become one of his a.s.sistants in the future.

However, it occurred to him that Chen An was oblivious of Chen Fan’s real ident.i.ty; worse, he seemed to dislike his powerful cousin.

“Mr. Chen is not on good terms with his cousins.” Wei Zifang shook his head and lamented in his mind. He hoped that Chen An could have introduced him to Chen Fan, but the turn of events made him keep his plan to himself.

As he thought so, the warm smile on his face evaporated.

He made up his mind to keep a distance with Chen Fan’s cousins, in order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.

Yin Wanqin stood beside her boyfriend and was amused by Chen An’s remarks.

“What a fool. He has eyes but doesn’t recognize Mount Tai.”
