Chen Fan sneered, "A joke?"
"Yes, yes, yes," Xu Lang nodded repeatedly, his face full of flattery.
The arrogance and smugness from before had long since vanished without a trace.
"Do you think you're worthy?" Chen Fan asked again.
Xu Lang's expression froze, his face once again filled with panic. Tears involuntarily streamed down his face, "Doctor Chen, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have mocked you earlier. I worked so hard to become a director, and I don't want to lose it like this!"
Chen Fan no longer paid attention to Xu Lang, but turned his gaze to Liu Qianze, "Doctor Liu must have put in a lot of effort, but I didn't expect this would be the outcome, right?"
Liu Qianze clenched his fists, his face ashen. The events of today were simply the greatest humiliation of his life!
"Do you really think that by defeating me, you can have Shuran? I'm telling you, it's useless. The Qin family will never let you marry her, you trash," Liu Qianze said coldly as he approached Chen Fan.
"You don't need to worry about that. How I get the Qin family to accept me is my business. For now, you just need to leave Jiangcheng," Chen Fan said calmly.
"Leave Jiangcheng? Why should I leave Jiangcheng?" Liu Qianze retorted.
Qin Shuran's delicate brows furrowed, "Liu Qianze, what do you mean by that? Are you going back on your word?"
Liu Qianze sneered, "Heh, so what?"
A cold glint flashed in Chen Fan's eyes. He had originally planned to drive Liu Qianze out of the hospital and out of Jiangcheng today, and then live a simple life with Qin Shuran. Moreover, he believed that his company would one day gain the Qin family's approval.
But he hadn't expected that Liu Qianze had no intention of honoring the bet!
"Liu Qianze, you are shameless!" Qin Shuran was also furious.
"Shuran, how can this be called shameless? We were born with a status that he can't compare to. In our eyes, they are nothing but a bunch of ants. Do you think I would compromise with an ant?" Liu Qianze said with a playful smirk.
"Well said. How can those ants be compared to us? What right does he have to make a bet with us?" Just then, a powerful male voice echoed from outside the outpatient building.
More than a dozen bodyguards escorted two middle-aged men into the lobby of the psychiatric hospital's outpatient building.
Hearing the sudden voice, everyone present turned to look towards the entrance.
"Dad?!" Qin Shuran turned around and was instantly stunned.
The arrivals were none other than her father, Qin Hongguo.
Upon seeing the other middle-aged man, Liu Qianze's heart leaped with joy, because that man was his father, Liu Zhijun!
"Patriarch Qin, Patriarch Liu! Why, why are you two here!" Lian Wenxin stammered in shock upon seeing the newcomers. When had such important figures ever visited their psychiatric hospital!
However, to Lian Wenxin's embarrassment, Qin Hongguo and Liu Zhijun completely ignored him and walked directly to Qin Shuran and Liu Qianze.
Hearing Lian Wenxin's address, everyone finally realized that these two were the renowned Qin Hongguo and Liu Zhijun of Southern China.
For a moment, everyone present was dumbfounded.
"Dad, you, why are you here?" Qin Shuran found it hard to believe that her father would suddenly appear here.
Qin Hongguo's expression was stern, "Hmph, if I hadn't come, you probably wouldn't even recognize me as your father anymore."
"Dad, this has nothing to do with you. This is Chen Fan's bet with him, they..."
"Shut up!" Qin Hongguo's cold reprimand cut Qin Shuran off before she could finish.
"Qianze and your Uncle Liu are right. How can trash like him, an ant, be qualified to bet with Qianze? Qianze was just joking with him," Qin Hongguo said again.
"We are ants, what are you guys then? Doctor Chen's medical skills are unparalleled, and in the future, he will be no worse than any of your families!" Da Xiong's fiery temper flared up again, and he retorted angrily.
A cold glint flashed in Liu Zhijun's eyes, "Kid, even Jin Shiran shows me respect. There isn't anyone who dares to be so presumptuous in front of me."
Da Xiong was about to say something when Chen Fan stopped him.
Chen Fan asked coldly, "Uncle Qin, didn't you promise to let us compete fairly? Why are you suddenly appearing and breaking our bet?"
"Does what I, Qin Hongguo, do require your report?" Qin Hongguo sneered.
"Dad, don't forget, Chen Fan also has Wanhao Group behind him," Qin Shuran reminded him.
Qin Hongguo glanced at Chen Fan, "This is a matter between our Qin family and the Liu family. What does Wanhao Group have to do with it? Could it be that she, Long Yinglan, wants to challenge our two great families?"
"Dad, I will not marry him. My heart belongs only to Chen Fan!" Qin Shuran said resolutely, tightly holding Chen Fan's hand.
"Shuran, your marriage is not for you to decide. Unless you die, you can only marry Liu Qianze!" Qin Hongguo said coldly.
Qin Shuran's expression froze, and she looked at her father with surprise.
She hadn't expected her father to say such a thing.
Liu Zhijun also said, "Shuran, don't worry. When you marry into my Liu family, I guarantee Liu Qianze won't dare to bully you. You might not know, but our two families have already reached cooperation in several areas recently."
Qin Shuran suddenly understood. No wonder her father was so eager to marry her off to the Liu family. It turned out their cooperation had already begun.
Marrying her off now was just to maintain the relationship between the two families. Only through an alliance could the cooperation be more lasting.
She hadn't expected that, in the end, she would still be reduced to a tool for the family to make money.
"Alright, then I'll die in front of you," Qin Shuran suddenly raised her head and looked at Qin Hongguo resolutely.
"Shuran!" Chen Fan quickly grabbed Qin Shuran's arm.
He then quickly said to Qin Hongguo, "Uncle Qin, please believe me. My company is in the process of being established. Give me two years, and I will definitely meet your standards for a son-in-law."
Qin Hongguo glanced at Chen Fan disdainfully, "Establishing a company? Even if I give you ten or twenty years, you will never reach my standards."
Saying that, he took out a bank card and threw it at Chen Fan's face, "There is one hundred million in this card. I don't ask for anything else, as long as you leave my daughter, this money is yours."
Whoosh!
The scene was in an uproar.
One hundred million! Just leave Qin Shuran?!
Chen Fan suddenly felt how powerless he was. Facing the behemoth before him, he truly had no way. But he had tried his best. He treated people, built connections, returned to start a company, and even helped Da Xiong take Jin Shiran's position.
But all his efforts were still in vain in the eyes of these people!
