"What's wrong with me?" Chen Ning's face turned deathly pale.
"Spinal problems can lead to internal organ problems. Go to the hospital to get it checked out, otherwise you won't even know how you died," Ye Xingchen said.
"How is this possible?" Chen Ning didn't believe it.
"I am Ye Xingchen, from Xingchen Group. Do you think my words are not credible?" Ye Xingchen sneered.
"You're the miracle doctor who can bring the dead back to life?" Chen Ning was dumbfounded.
"I wouldn't dare accept that. If you don't believe me, that's fine. You can't persuade a dying man with kind words." Ye Xingchen said with a faint smile.
"Thank you, Mr. Ye, thank you. I'll go check right away. I'm not taking this case anymore. Besides, I can provide some negative information about Li Changbo. If he really goes to court, I guarantee he'll lose and won't get custody." Chen Ning bowed repeatedly, subtly betraying Li Changbo.
"Can't you have any professional ethics? I'm your client!" Li Changbo roared.
“There are plenty of ways to make money, but I need to be alive to spend it. Li Changbo, you're fighting for custody of the children for their property. Once you get the property, you won't care about the children at all.”
Chen Ning looked righteous and awe-inspiring: "If you succeed, this child's life will be ruined. I'd rather not earn this kind of money."
"Then, Attorney Chen, if we really go to court, what are the chances of him losing?" Ye Xingchen smiled.
“I’m 90% sure. I know this guy’s background. If Mr. Ye trusts me, just contact me directly.” Chen Ning took out a business card and handed it over.
"Very good, your illness isn't serious. If you trust me, just take this prescription." Ye Xingchen wrote down a prescription.
"Thank you, Mr. Ye." Chen Ning was overjoyed and quickly and carefully took the prescription before leaving.
"Want to play again?" Ye Xingchen glanced at Li Changbo.
"Fine, you've got guts. You just wait and see." Li Changbo stood up with a gloomy face.
*Slap!* Ye Xingchen slapped him so hard he knelt down again.
"Don't pull this on me. If you're so capable, take revenge right now." Ye Xingchen frowned. "Or stay away from Xin Xin and never let me see you again."
Li Changbo was so engrossed in the slapping that he saw stars, and he dared not talk back anymore.
"Get lost." Ye Xingchen waved his hand.
He didn't dare utter a sound. With his face swollen like a pig's head, he slunk away.
"Is he Xin Xin's father?" Ye Xingchen asked.
"Yes, my best friend was blind to have met such a scumbag." Ning Qingyan sighed.
"Before she died, she entrusted her daughter to me. She left Xinxin an inheritance of tens of millions of yuan, which I temporarily managed. After Li Changbo and his mistress left, they lived a life of debauchery, and the company went bankrupt. Now they've set their sights on their own daughter."
"Useless! You can't even handle this simple task." In a private room at a club, Chu Xiang stared coldly at Li Changbo.
"Young Master Chu, please give me another chance. I promise I'll get my hands on Xin Xin," Li Changbo said fearfully.
"I'll give you one more chance to take your daughter away." Chu Xiang sneered, "Now go figure out a way, get out of here."
"Yes...yes." Li Changbo quickly withdrew.
"This is a task assigned by Mr. Sato, so we must complete it properly. If we have the little girl under our control, Ning Qingyan will definitely fall into the trap, and Ye Xingchen won't stand idly by. Then... hehe..."
Chu Xiang revealed a cold smile, and he said through gritted teeth, "Ye Xingchen, you have offended far too many people."
At Pengmanlou, Lü Peng was at a loss, facing the few customers he could find.
He was originally a big shot in the catering industry, but recent events have caused a sharp drop in customers at his largest flagship store.
"Brother Lü, what's wrong?" Ye Xingchen walked in with a smile.
"Brother, you've finally arrived! You have to help me!" Lu Peng rushed towards Ye Xingchen as if he had seen a savior.
He excitedly grasped Ye Xingchen's hand. Ye Xingchen had cured his illness and even had a way to help him control the ego of the middle-aged man who had killed his son. He believed that there was nothing in this world that Ye Xingchen couldn't solve.
"Brother Lü, please speak slowly. What exactly happened?" Ye Xingchen calmed him down when he saw his agitation.
He received a call from Lü Peng in the morning, saying he needed his help, so he rushed over. Seeing that Lü Peng was quite agitated, Ye Xingchen didn't understand what was wrong.
“Brother, look, it’s lunchtime now, and my shop is almost empty,” Lu Peng said, pointing around with a worried expression.
“My Pengmanlou is Tianhai’s flagship store, over 5,000 square meters, and the renovation cost tens of millions of yuan. It’s only been open for a short time and it’s already run into trouble. Isn’t this going to bankrupt me?”
"Brother Lü, I saw a 'Closed' sign on your door. Of course there's no one here if you're closed." Ye Xingchen said, looking puzzled.
"We can't stay open," Lü Peng said with a bitter face. "Because every time a customer picks up their chopsticks, they find a bug in their food."
"Is that so?" Ye Xingchen was slightly taken aback. "What kind of insect did you find in it?"
“Spiders, centipedes, scorpions… they’re all poisonous insects. One customer even had a heart attack on the spot and had to go to the hospital, so this restaurant had to close down.” Lu Peng smiled bitterly. “I personally supervised the kitchen and checked every step of the process, and there were no problems at all.”
“The food was fine when it was being cooked, and I even served the dishes with the waiter, but as soon as the customers picked up their chopsticks, they could taste those things. I couldn’t solve it, so I asked you for help, brother.”
"Have the chef prepare a few dishes for me, and I'll see how things go," Ye Xingchen said after glancing around and finding nothing amiss.
"Okay, everything's ready. Come this way, brother." Lu Peng quickly led Ye Xingchen to a private room, where a table was laden with dishes.
The dishes on the table looked and smelled delicious. Ye Xingchen walked to the table, sat down, and picked up his chopsticks.
The moment he reached for his chopsticks, his brow furrowed slightly, and he stopped picking up the food.
"Brother, what's wrong? Can you tell what's wrong?" Lu Peng asked anxiously.
"Brother Lü, did you... offend someone?" Ye Xingchen waved his right hand, and the six dishes and soup on the table instantly changed.
What was originally a delicious and visually appealing dish has now turned into plates of poisonous insects, and inside the jar, a colorful little snake is swimming around.
These poisonous insects consist of spiders, scorpions, centipedes, and other venomous creatures. Their bright colors make it clear that they are highly poisonous.
They were tumbling together on the plate, looking rather creepy.
Lu Peng's eyes widened, his legs went weak, and he slumped into the chair with a thud. He had watched the dish being made with his own eyes, and the ingredients were absolutely the freshest. So why had it turned out like this?
"Brother, you have to help me! I've always been kind to everyone and never made enemies. What... what's going on?" Lu Peng cried.
