Sour Pickled Peanuts

Chapter 19 Who Exactly Are You?

Jin Hailu felt her brain was insufficient.

What exactly did Qin Hanchu intend to do?

In the current situation, Qin Hanchu would be lucky to save his own life.

"Qin Hanchu, you're making me laugh."

"Tell me, why should I listen to you?"

Old Madam Jin burst into laughter, looking at Qin Hanchu with disdain.

Qin Hanchu did not reply, merely smiling at Old Madam Jin.

At the same time, Wantong stepped forward and clapped her hands.

At Wantong's signal, more than fifty people appeared on the surrounding high walls.

These individuals wore matching black battle uniforms and black and white masks.

Standing atop the walls, they uniformly drew their bows and nocked arrows.

Besides them, orderly footsteps echoed from the entrance.

Everyone turned their heads in shock as hundreds of black-clad martial artists filed in, encircling the Golden Lion Guards.

This sight widened everyone's eyes in terror.

They never imagined that Qin Hanchu possessed such a powerful background.

Jin Hailu stood frozen, finally believing Qin Hanchu's words.

Even without the Golden Lion Guards present, the Han Corporation could not have harmed Qin Hanchu in the slightest.

Su Fengxian's eyes widened in astonishment.

He could sense the formidable aura of these black-clad martial artists.

Compared to them, the Golden Lion Guards were in no league.

Even the Su family's guard team would not be a match for these people.

Old Madam Jin and her family, including Jin Shiming, began to panic.

No wonder Qin Hanchu was so composed; he had arranged everything in advance.

If a fight had broken out, today would have been the day the Golden Lion Group was destroyed!

"All of my guards are Rank Six and Seven martial artists."

"Among them are over a dozen peak Rank Seven martial artists."

"Do you think the Golden Lion Guards are their match?"

Qin Hanchu stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Old Madam Jin proudly.

"So strong!"

Qin Hanchu's words left Su Fengxian even more shocked.

In Island City, Rank Eight martial artists were already considered incredibly powerful.

For both the Han Corporation and the Su Corporation, their guard captains were at most peak Rank Seven.

Yet, Qin Hanchu's force boasted over a dozen peak Rank Seven martial artists.

Even the weakest among them was at the Rank Six realm.

The average realm of the Golden Lion Group's guards was only Rank Six.

If the two sides were to clash, the Golden Lion Guards would be utterly defeated!

Old Madam Jin's hands began to tremble.

Jin Shiming and his family turned pale.

"They... they are all your people?"

"Who exactly are you?"

"Hu Qingshan was just a physician, how could he have such influence!"

Old Madam Jin asked, trembling.

"My master is a divine physician. The connections he forged throughout his life are beyond your imagination."

Qin Hanchu did not admit that these guards were his own.

He did not wish for others to see through his trump cards yet.

Qin Hanchu's words were like a thunderous awakening.

Hu Qingshan was once hailed as the divine physician of the era, with countless influential families and high-ranking officials owing him favors.

She could treat these favors as trash, but there were always those who repaid kindness.

The connections Hu Qingshan left behind were Qin Hanchu's greatest treasure.

"You are right, I was short-sighted."

Old Madam Jin looked more than ten years older, knowing she had lost.

"Sign the contract, and enjoy the rest of your life in peace at home." Qin Hanchu said coldly.

Old Madam Jin tremblingly bent down and picked up the contract.

Under the "witness" of everyone present, Old Madam Jin signed her name.

Jin Shiming and his family wanted to intervene but lacked the courage.

From this day forward, Jin Hailu would be the largest shareholder of the Golden Lion Group.

Wantong stepped forward and presented the contract to Jin Hailu. "Sign it, and the Golden Lion Group will be yours to command."

Looking at the contract in Wantong's hand, Jin Hailu hesitated.

Should she really sign it?

"Sign this contract, and you will have absolute authority within the Jin family," Qin Hanchu said.

Hearing this, Jin Hailu's eyes lit up.

She took the pen and signed her name.

"Put away your swords and stand down!" Jin Hailu said to the Golden Lion Guards, holding the contract.

Now the de facto head of the Jin family, Jin Hailu's command was naturally obeyed by the Golden Lion Guards.

After all, they were paid to do their jobs.

Whoever paid them was their boss!

"Sister Wantong, you can withdraw as well," Qin Hanchu said to Wantong.

Wantong smiled and nodded, leading the black-clad guards to disperse quickly.

"I ask everyone here to keep today's events confidential."

"If anyone spreads word of this, do not blame me for being unkind."

"President Su, your Su family is no exception!"

Qin Hanchu's voice was laced with a strong threat, showing no hesitation even when facing Su Fengxian.

Su Fengxian was also awestruck.

Although the Su family was powerful, it was limited to Island City.

Beyond Island City, there were countless formidable powers.

While he didn't know whose forces the black-clad guards belonged to, he knew that the power behind them must be greater than the Su family's.

If those guards had stormed the Su family residence, the Su family would have been unable to resist.

"Brother Qin, as long as you can save my father, I will definitely hand over ten percent of the shares."

Su Fengxian was not a fool; he specified the shares would be given after his father was saved.

If he couldn't save him, Qin Hanchu would feel too embarrassed to accept the shares.

"In addition to the shares, I want the Su family to fully cooperate with the Golden Lion Group. Any problems?" Qin Hanchu asked.

Su Fengxian understood Qin Hanchu's intentions.

He wanted the Su family to openly support the Golden Lion Group.

This way, businesses that wanted to sever ties with the Golden Lion Group would be wary.

Even the Han Corporation would have to reconsider.

Su Fengxian did not wish to be involved in the conflict between the Golden Lion Group and the Han Corporation.

But now, he had no choice.

Although he had only met Qin Hanchu three times, Su Fengxian knew Qin Hanchu was a man of his word.

If he refused, Qin Hanchu would certainly not agree to save Su Yuanjiu.

"No problem!" Su Fengxian agreed.

"You handle the Golden Lion Group's affairs first. I'll come find you later," Qin Hanchu said to Jin Hailu.

Jin Hailu was still reeling from the shock.

Everything that happened today felt like a dream.

...

Island City Medical College.

Su Yuanjiu lay weakly on the hospital bed.

At that moment, three people, two men and one woman, entered the room anxiously.

"Aunt, you're back." Su Zeyan hurried to greet the newcomers.

The person in question was Su Yuanjiu's eldest daughter, Su Fengjun!

"Where is your father?" Su Fengjun, who was married overseas, rushed back from abroad upon hearing of her father's serious illness.

"He went to see the doctor," Su Zeyan replied.

"Professor Horst, please examine my father," Su Fengjun said respectfully to the foreigner behind her.

"Aunt, who is this?" Su Zeyan asked curiously.

"Professor Horst is one of the most authoritative famous doctors in the United States. He can definitely cure Dad."

As Su Fengjun spoke, Horst walked to Su Yuanjiu's side.

He placed his fingers on Su Yuanjiu's pulse and began to take his pulse.

This action greatly surprised Su Zeyan.

A medical professor from the United States, not looking at lab reports, was playing with pulse-taking?
