With a merciless slap, Sun Minghai was thrown to the ground.
Yes, the dignified esteemed doctor, now being manhandled on the floor.
"Kid, you... I am Sun Minghai!"
Chen Fan snorted, "Who cares who you are, a bet is a bet. Call me 'Young Master' three times!"
Sun Minghai considered himself to have a certain standing in Lin City, how could he stoop to calling someone master?
And to a young man at that. If he really did, how could he face anyone afterwards?
Xia Taishan did not intervene, choosing to remain silent.
Xia Wenping wanted to speak but hesitated, his words carrying little weight.
Xia Wentao lowered his gaze and said, "Kid, watch your words and actions. This is the Xia family residence!"
"And, the person before you is none other than Divine Doctor Sun!"
Chen Fan looked up and glanced at Xia Wentao, "Xia family members, I haven't settled accounts with you yet, and yet you're practically inviting trouble?"
"I advise you to get lost, or don't blame me for being impolite!"
"You..." Xia Wentao was infuriated.
Chen Fan ignored all the Xia family members present and his gaze fell back on Sun Minghai, "Old man, I'll ask you one more time, do you submit?"
"If not, I don't mind helping you!"
He flexed his fingers, looking eager to fight.
At this moment, Sun Minghai's expression was extremely grim. He truly couldn't swallow his pride.
However, seeing Chen Fan's righteous indignation, he genuinely worried about what impulsive actions the young man might take!
"I..."
Sun Minghai's words stopped at his lips.
He really couldn't bring himself to say it!
After a long pause, Xia Taishan's voice echoed, "Divine Doctor Sun, a person cannot stand without integrity!"
His meaning was clear.
Sun Minghai shot Xia Taishan a hateful glance, roaring inwardly, *You old scoundrel, not only do you not help me, but you side with a country bumpkin! Fine, I'll remember this debt.* Then he turned to Chen Fan and said,
"Young Master, Young Master, Young Master..."
Chen Fan smiled, "Good grandson, you're so obedient!"
Sun Minghai left the Xia family in humiliation, and before exiting, he cast a cold glare.
The enmity was now established!
"Alright, everyone else, get out!"
Xia Taishan said sternly.
The old master's command was not to be defied by Xia Wenping and Xia Wentao, so they left the room.
Soon, only Xia Bingqing and Chen Fan remained in the room.
Xia Taishan slowly began, "Chen Fan, I know you!"
"Thank you today!"
"Once I recover, I will certainly offer my deepest gratitude!"
Chen Fan snorted, "The engagement was something you and that old man of mine cooked up, so of course you know me!"
"Furthermore, saving you was purely my own volition, no thanks are needed!"
"I am here today to break off the engagement. Tear up the marriage contract quickly, and we'll be quits!"
Xia Taishan's ancient eyes were profound. He didn't say much, and his gaze fell on Xia Bingqing, "Qingqing, are you satisfied with this marriage?"
Xia Bingqing didn't even look at Chen Fan directly, "Grandpa, I'm not satisfied!"
Xia Taishan nodded knowingly. Just as they all thought the old man would end the engagement, he spoke, "I believe you two are compatible, a match made in heaven. I approve!"
Huh?
The sudden turn of events almost made Chen Fan and Xia Bingqing buckle.
"Old man, you..."
Chen Fan was stunned. How could this be?
Xia Bingqing's beautiful eyes widened, "Grandpa, how could you do this?"
"What era are we in? Still going by arranged marriages!"
Xia Taishan coughed twice, "What grandfather decides will not change. Furthermore, my granddaughter's husband can only be Chen Fan. You two figure it out! Also, my health is deteriorating by the day. If you don't want me to pass away prematurely, listen to your grandfather!"
"Grandpa!"
"No more discussion, it's settled!"
"Also, I suggest you two go to the bridal chamber immediately..."
