Chapter 76: Chapter 76: This Is My Fiancé

At Wang Chenning’s words, the color drained from the faces of Chang Qingfeng and the other staff at the National Medicine Hall.

Chang Hongwei stared grimly at Wang Chenning for a moment before ordering Chang Qingfeng to take down the sign.

"Grandfather..." Chang Qingfeng cried out in anguish, but in the end, he reluctantly went over and took the sign down.

After Chang Qingfeng removed the sign, Chang Hongwei walked over, suddenly shot out his fist, and smashed it down hard on the wooden plaque.

The sign shattered on impact. Chang Hongwei’s fist split open, blood streaming from the wound!

As she settled into the brand-new Maserati sports car, Zhao Xiao’an said to Wang Chenning, a little embarrassed, "I suddenly feel a bit bad about this. It feels like we were bullying them!"

"Actually, old man Chang and my grandfather are at about the same level of medical skill. That’s how it’s always been," Wang Chenning said with a smile. "I’m sure he knew that, which is why he was willing to bet so heavily. He only agreed to let Chang Qingfeng compete against me first to lull me into a false sense of security. He wanted me to get careless so I’d suffer a pathetic loss at his hands. That way, he could cement his title as Huaxia’s Number One Needle and get my collection of prescriptions. It was a plan to kill several birds with one stone. He just never expected my medical skills to have already surpassed my grandfather’s!"

"Huh? Is that really what happened?" Zhao Xiao’an was astonished. "You must have learned your medical skills from your grandfather. You’re so young, how could you possibly have surpassed him?"

Wang Chenning said a bit mysteriously, "I had a fortuitous encounter when I was a child."

"What kind of encounter?" Zhao Xiao’an’s curiosity was instantly piqued.

But Wang Chenning just shook his head. "I promised that extraordinary person that I wouldn’t tell anyone. If I do, may I be struck by lightning!"

"How boring!" Zhao Xiao’an shot Wang Chenning a look, but she was tactful enough not to press the issue.

"Your BMW X5 is mine now, so you drive this sports car!" Wang Chenning tossed the sports car keys to Zhao Xiao’an. "This car suits you. It’s not too flashy, but it’s full of youthful energy!"

"Who says it’s not flashy?" Zhao Xiao’an huffed, tossing the Maserati keys back. "This is your car. I can’t take something you love! If I get the chance in the future, just let me borrow it for a few days."

"Alright!" Wang Chenning didn’t insist.

As they were talking, Zhao Xiao’an’s phone rang. Seeing it was her director, she quickly answered.

After a few words, Zhao Xiao’an said, a bit apologetically, "Director, I think we need to make some adjustments to our production plan. I’ll tell you the details when I get back!"

After hanging up, Zhao Xiao’an whispered to Wang Chenning, "Chang Hongwei is no longer qualified to be on the show. I have to go back and tell my superiors what happened today and readjust the production schedule."

"Alright," Wang Chenning nodded. "I was planning to take you out for a big meal to properly celebrate today’s triumph!"

"Then let’s get a late-night snack together tonight!" Zhao Xiao’an’s pretty eyes darted around for a moment, and then she said in a sweet voice, "I think I can definitely get the show’s plan adjusted before eight o’clock tonight. I’ll contact you then, and you can treat me to a late-night snack!"

"Alright," Wang Chenning agreed.

"I’ll get going then," Zhao Xiao’an said, a bit shyly. "I’ll find you tonight, and I’ll show you the photos from that day then, too."

Wang Chenning agreed with a smile.

After Zhao Xiao’an left, Wang Chenning drove the flashy Maserati sports car back to campus.

Just as he parked the car, he received a message from Yang Xiaofei:

"I’m on my way back. Landing in about two hours. There’s something I need to see you about!"

"Okay!" Wang Chenning replied. "Just message me when you land!"

Then he added curiously, "They have internet on planes now?"

"Layover. About to take off again!"

"Ah, my mistake. Shows what I know!"

Yang Xiaofei didn’t reply.

After driving back to the university, Wang Chenning first practiced his techniques for a while in his room.

After working up a sweat, he took a shower.

As he came out of the shower, something suddenly occurred to him. He immediately changed his clothes, grabbed the case containing his treatment tools, and left his room.

After going downstairs, he got into the flashy sports car and headed straight for the airport.

Unfamiliar with the roads, it took Wang Chenning nearly an hour to reach the airport.

By the time he arrived, more than two hours had passed since Yang Xiaofei’s message.

After checking the flight arrival and departure information, Wang Chenning quickly located the flight Yang Xiaofei was on.

The flight had already landed ten minutes ago.

’Perfect timing!’ After parking the car, Wang Chenning headed directly for the VIP passenger arrivals.

Just as he reached the entrance to the arrivals area, Wang Chenning saw a few "familiar faces."

One of them was Lin Annian, with whom he’d had a violent clash before. Another was his "old friend" Li Mingchao, who would soon need to get more medicine from him.

Standing with these two rich playboys were several other people, but Wang Chenning didn’t recognize them.

After seeing them, Wang Chenning put on his sunglasses and a mask, then stood quietly in the back.

A moment later, he saw Yang Xiaofei. She was wearing a trench coat, sunglasses, and a hat, but still looked utterly captivating. Accompanied by her assistant, Lv Qinglan, and several other people, she was walking over from the arrivals gate.

Seeing Yang Xiaofei emerge, Wang Chenning strode forward to meet her.

"Xiaofei, you’re finally back!" Li Mingchao said with a smile as he went up to greet her. "It’s been a while. You’ve gotten even more beautiful!"

"Xiaofei, long time no see!" Lin Annian also stepped forward with a smile. "Mingchao gathered a few of us to throw a welcome-back party for you!"

Faced with Li Mingchao and Lin Annian’s enthusiastic greetings, Yang Xiaofei walked up to them with a cold and aloof expression. She gave a slight nod, then her eyes scanned the area behind them.

After a couple of seemingly casual glances, her gaze suddenly froze.

’He really came to pick me up!’

"Excuse me, gentlemen, please make way." Wang Chenning had already reached Yang Xiaofei. He lightly tapped Li Mingchao and Lin Annian on the shoulder and said politely, "Coming through!"

When they turned and got a clear look at Wang Chenning, the beaming smiles on Li Mingchao and Lin Annian’s faces vanished, as if they had seen a ghost.

After pulling them aside, Wang Chenning moved past the group to stand before Yang Xiaofei. Without any ceremony, he opened his arms and pulled her directly into his embrace.

"You’re finally back. It must have been hard on you," Wang Chenning said with a grin after forcibly pulling the stiff Yang Xiaofei into his arms. "I didn’t expect you to have so many friends here to meet you."

"I didn’t tell them when I was coming back!" Yang Xiaofei shot Wang Chenning a glare and turned her face slightly to the side, but she didn’t struggle.

Wang Chenning let go of Yang Xiaofei, turned to the dumbfounded playboys, and gave them a nod by way of greeting.

As Wang Chenning hugged Yang Xiaofei in public, Li Mingchao was not only dumbfounded, but a raging fire also ignited in his heart. He wished he could plunge a knife straight into Wang Chenning’s chest.

This public slap in the face had him seeing stars. The astonished looks from his companions were like having his face ground into the pavement.

But what no one expected was that after Wang Chenning let her go, Yang Xiaofei, who hadn’t rejected his embrace, proactively linked her arm with his. Then, in a perfectly calm tone, she said, "Thank you all for coming to welcome me. Allow me to introduce you. This is my fiancé, Wang Chenning!"
