Silence! The entire venue fell silent for a full ten seconds.
Imperial Physician?
This young man was actually an Imperial Physician!
No one could believe it. They all understood what being an Imperial Physician meant, yet they were also somewhat puzzled. Shouldn't Imperial Physicians be in the capital? And he was so young, could he really be an Imperial Physician?
Of course, everyone only doubted it for a fleeting moment before quickly believing it, because these words came from Song Yushan!
"Secretary Song, you mean he's an Imperial Physician?" Yao Jingtai exclaimed.
Song Yushan nodded with a half-smile, "Yes, Manager Yao. So, your apology isn't a loss. Offending an Imperial Physician would bring you no good."
Yao Jingtai's expression completely changed. Although he was from Hong Kong, he knew what an Imperial Physician meant in mainland China. He looked at Li Se. To be an Imperial Physician at such a young age was hard to believe, yet these words were spoken by Song Yushan.
Taking a deep breath, Yao Jingtai said, "Alright, I apologize for my previous behavior. Master Li, I hope you can overlook my ignorance."
Yao Jingtai truly apologized.
"Don't worry, I won't dwell on it. However, as Secretary Song mentioned, I am a doctor and not skilled in Feng Shui, so you should find someone else."
"Also, Manager Yao, don't blame me for not reminding you. I have some research in physiognomy as well. Though I'm not very proficient, I still need to warn you that you're in for some bloodshed recently!"
After saying this, Li Se bid farewell to Song Yushan, Old Man Wei San, and others, then turned and left.
Yao Jingtai's face was grim, but he was helpless. If Li Se was truly an Imperial Physician, he couldn't do anything.
However, that last sentence made him extremely wary.
Yao Jingtai was a devout believer in Feng Shui and divination. Now that Li Se predicted bloodshed for him, despite his displeasure, he couldn't help but feel a sense of trepidation.
"Lately, I've been restless. Could it really be because of the impending bloodshed?" Yao Jingtai mused.
"Boss, there's no need to pay attention to his words," Zhang Ruishan said.
This gathering soon dispersed due to Li Se's departure.
As soon as Wei Xueru left the gathering, she rushed to find Li Se.
"Will you blame my grandfather?" Wei Xueru asked cautiously.
Li Se rubbed Wei Xueru's head and smiled, "Why would I blame your grandfather?"
"It's good that you don't blame him." Wei Xueru stuck out her tongue, finally letting out a sigh of relief. However, Li Se's actions made her a little shy.
"By the way, when we were at my house earlier, Grandpa sent me away and said something to you?" Wei Xueru was an intelligent person and couldn't help but guess that her grandfather had intentionally sent her away.
Li Se's eyes held a hint of mischief as he asked, "Do you really want to know?"
"Yes." Wei Xueru nodded slightly.
"Your grandfather wanted to marry you off to me. However, I respect you, and such things cannot be forced. So, I refused," Li Se said earnestly.
Wei Xueru blushed profusely, "How could Grandpa do that!"
However, she also felt a bit disappointed in her heart. Why did Li Se refuse? httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
"Can you take me to watch a movie?" Wei Xueru suddenly said.
"Watch a movie?" Li Se was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, "Okay, let's go now."
But just then, several vans drove up and blocked Li Se's path.
Dozens of people emerged from them, all carrying steel pipes or machetes.
Seeing this scene, passersby fled in all directions.
"Who are you?" Li Se frowned.
"We're here to chop you!" These people uttered only these words before lunging forward. With dozens of them attacking simultaneously, the scene immediately descended into chaos.
Wei Xueru's face turned pale at this sight.
Li Se quickly shielded Wei Xueru. As a steel pipe swung down, he grabbed it barehanded, followed by a kick. With a snap and a scream, one of them fell.
After taking down one, Li Se continued to defend and attack, punching and kicking. Each of his movements was followed by another person falling. He didn't kill them, but after enduring his attacks, they would likely be crippled.
In less than a minute, more than ten people had fallen. Li Se, standing in front of Wei Xueru, had not even taken a single step back.
The remaining attackers became wary, swallowing hard, and hesitated to advance.
"What are you afraid of? It's just him. Take him down, and take that woman away!" someone shouted.
These thugs glanced at Wei Xueru, their lecherous thoughts ignited, their courage surged, and they attacked again.
Bang bang bang...
The clashing sounds of steel pipes and machetes were piercing, vibrating their eardrums.
Li Se remained unmoved. Amidst the attacks and defenses, blood splattered, but not a single drop landed on him.
Finally, all dozens of them collapsed on the ground, writhing in agony. Blood stained the entire ground.
Li Se approached one of them, stepping on his arm, "Tell me, who sent you?"
"It... it was Brother Lang!" the man replied in pain.
"Who is Brother Lang?" Li Se frowned, he hadn't heard of this person.
"Earlier, Brother Lang's younger brother came to deal with you, but you crushed his knee, so Brother Lang sent us for revenge..." the man quickly replied.
Li Se finally understood. It was that scrawny man. This also made him think of Yao Jingtai, but he quickly dismissed the idea. After knowing his identity as an Imperial Physician, Yao Jingtai would absolutely not dare to send people to cause trouble for him again.
Imperial Physicians held extremely high status in China. Although he hadn't gone to the capital yet, he already had the support of Qingyun City's top official, which showed the terrifying power of being an Imperial Physician.
Yao Jingtai was a businessman and would never court disaster. Therefore, it was very likely Brother Lang's own action.
"Where is Brother Lang now?" Li Se would not easily let go of those who dared to confront him.
"At... at Shengshi KTV," the man replied without the slightest hesitation.
Li Se stood up, kicked the man a considerable distance away, then called Tian Anming again. After the call, he turned to look at Wei Xueru and hesitated, saying, "How about you go to the cinema first? Give me half an hour to handle this."
Wei Xueru obediently nodded, "Okay, I'll wait for you!"
