Chapter 11: Chapter 11: Rural Migrant Workers

"Xiaobing is not someone you can call, and my home is not a place you can visit at will," Bai Bing said coldly.

Chen Bainan was someone she knew very well.

This person was typically someone with a human face and a beast’s heart, rumored to have ruined countless innocent girls outside. But he hadn’t provoked her directly, so she couldn’t and had no power to intervene.

The hateful thing was that her father and brother trusted him immensely, as if they were under some spell, and wanted to marry her off to Chen Bainan.

This was a bolt from the blue, so she secretly went out, planning to avoid him for a few days, just to deter Chen Bainan and make him give up.

She didn’t expect him to be so brazenly shameless, constantly hanging around her home.

If Grandpa Zhang were here, he would surely see through Chen Bainan’s wolfish ambitions.

Coveting her beauty was one thing; more importantly, their family’s business was being slowly crushed by them. If it weren’t for her vigilance and defense, her rough and hot-headed father might have been counting money for others after being sold.

Chen Bainan’s face didn’t look good, not expecting Bai Bing to smack his face like this in front of so many people. He couldn’t help but feel a surge of evil fire in his heart, secretly thinking,

"You bitch, just you wait. When that old bastard lying on the bed dies, let’s see who can stop me from doing you. I’ll do you until you’re begging for death, crying for your father, and then kick you away."

The real person in charge of the Bai family was Master Bai.

The reason Bai Bing was now in charge of the entire family business was always because of her grandfather’s support.

Now Master Bai was comatose, and if he passed away just like that, the Bai family would undoubtedly not be able to stop the Chen family’s wolfish ambitions.

"Xiaobing, I’m not an outsider, and you’ll become my wife in the future. Our two families’ business will only grow bigger and better. Your grandfather is like my grandfather. I’m rightfully here to see grandpa."

"You little brat, what are you talking about? Bainan is your future husband," Bai Zhenyang fumed, his anger was palpable, "How is he not good enough for you? He has talent and career, being with you is your fortune."

"He’s not good enough in any way, if you want to marry him, you marry him yourself."

Bai Bing was also furious, she just couldn’t understand how her father had become like this, questioning if she was still his daughter.

"You... "

Bai Zhenyang had always valued his face greatly. Unexpectedly humiliated by his daughter in front of outsiders, his anger rose unabated. He reached out and slapped Bai Bing.

"You’re truly out of line!"

Bai Bing didn’t move; in fact, she didn’t expect Bai Zhenyang to hit her. She just felt why no one understood what she was saying. Must they only regret it when the family gets devoured?

"Indeed, he’s not good enough for her."

Bai Bing only heard someone behind her say that. She didn’t feel the sting on her cheek because a hand reached out from the side and caught Bai Zhenyang’s wrist a few inches away.

Lin Xi stepped forward, staring directly at Bai Zhenyang, and at the same time looking at Chen Bainan, "Because Bai Bing is my woman, a mere worm like him can’t reach."

"... " Bai Bing was speechless.

Bai Zhenyang was also overwhelmed by Lin Xi’s aura, feeling as if a towering mountain was coming at him, forcing him to retreat a few steps. Just then, Yu Cheng reacted and pulled Bai Zhenyang aside, continuously giving Bai Bing a look to stop her from speaking.

"A mere worm... your woman?"

Chen Bainan’s face was sullen, thinking even workers didn’t want him—such a damn scoundrel—did he really think he was a soft persimmon to be pinched by anyone?

Just then, a sound of footsteps came from upstairs. An old man dressed simply, with a ruddy complexion, came down. His brows were furrowed, and he occasionally sighed.

Instantly, all eyes of the Bai family focused on the old man. Lin Xi also curiously looked at the old man, thinking he seemed quite older but well-maintained. He appeared to be the famous doctor Bai Bing mentioned earlier.

Meanwhile, Chen Bainan could only swallow his anger for now, putting on an act of appearing anxious just like the Bai family members.

"Uncle Zhang, my father..."

Bai Zhenyang, in a change from his aggressive demeanor, hurriedly went forward to ask cautiously.

"Zhenyang, I watched you grow up, and I understand your feelings. In your father’s current state, I can only try my best to extend his time," Zhang Huacheng responded after pondering for a moment. He had a good relationship with the elder of the Bai family, so he would do his best as long as possible.

But Brother Bai, in his younger days, had been too intense, accumulating many hidden disorders within his body. As he aged, these suddenly erupted.

Adding to that, with recent depression and an unrelenting mental burden, he didn’t catch his breath which led to the severe condition and coma.

"Perhaps he will just leave us like this." Zhang Huacheng silently sighed for his old friend.

While the entire Bai family was engulfed in grief, Chen Bainan addressed Lin Xi with a sinister smile, as if he had found a way to hit him, suggesting,

"Didn’t Xiaobing just go out specifically to find a doctor? I’ve heard this doctor possesses extraordinary skills!"

"Oh?" Zhang Huacheng furrowed his brows slightly. He was well-versed with the renowned doctors in Chuzhou City, and they all paled in comparison to his medical skills. Since he had already made a diagnosis, there was no need for further examination.

Subsequently, Zhang Huacheng looked at the crowd, assuming an acquaintance had come, and then asked in bewilderment, "Where’s the person Xiaobing invited?"

"Here." Bai Bing glared at Chen Bainan, understanding his intention to embarrass Lin Xi, but she had no choice. After all, she had previously explained her invitation to Lin Xi to appease her family.

Initially, she asked Lin Xi to come over just to secretly check on her grandfather’s condition. After all, Lin Xi’s method of saving people today was too incredible.

She didn’t expect Grandpa Zhang to come to a conclusion so fast. Then her grandfather really was beyond help. It’s known that Grandpa Zhang was hailed as the Divine Doctor in Chuzhou City, and it’s said that as long as you had a breath left, he could save you.

"Him?" Zhang Huacheng was initially stunned, then angrily blew his beard and glared, "Fine, Zhenyang, this is you trusting a country bumpkin while doubting your Uncle Zhang’s medical prowess?"

"Uncle Zhang, it’s a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. This is Xiaobing’s friend, not invited by our Bai family." Bai Zhenyang quickly explained, trying to clarify himself.

"Xiaobing, don’t blame Grandpa Zhang for saying this. Your young friend, being so young, what can he know, can he compare to your Grandpa Zhang?" Zhang Huacheng, seeing Bai Zhenyang didn’t seem to be lying, as a famous doctor, was naturally proud. How could he consult with a young lad? This would tarnish his reputation.

"Grandpa Zhang, you’re the Divine Doctor, and my friend just wanted to broaden his experience under your guidance." Bai Bing’s face didn’t look good, secretly blaming herself for brainlessly letting Lin Xi come and have a look.

Now it’s turned into this, risking offending Grandpa Zhang.

At this moment, Chen Bainan felt secretly delighted. Fighting against me, you’re still too green, but this is just the appetizer, watch how I fix you.

"Besides my old man, you’re the first to dare say in front of me that what I could know!" Lin Xi’s gaze turned slightly cold as he calmly addressed Zhang Huacheng.

"... " Bai Bing.

"... " The members of the Bai family.

"... " Chen Bainan.
