Chapter 334: Let Him Come Down!

~7 min read 1,327 words

Jiang Feng looks at Du Fusheng, sweating profusely with urgency, a cold smile curling at the corner of his mouth.

"I don't want money."

He points to the medicine scattered on the Ground and the messily disturbed medicine cabinet, and continues.

"Restore these medicines to their original state, clean up my shop, and I can let you leave. Otherwise... you won't go!"

As soon as the words fall, a powerful aura suddenly erupts from Jiang Feng, sweeping the entire Ji Shi Tang like an invisible gale.

The main gate, which had been open, slams shut with a bang, as if locked by an unseen force, leaving not a single crack.

Du Fusheng is completely panicked; he can clearly feel the terror of that aura, a dread that comes from deep within the soul.

He knows Jiang Feng is not joking; if he doesn't comply, he probably won't get out of this Ji Shi Tang today.

"Thud!"

Du Fusheng's legs go weak, and he kneels directly in front of Jiang Feng, his knees pounding the Ground heavily.

His face is full of shock and pleading, repeatedly kowtowing to Jiang Feng.

"Jiang Ge! Jiang Ge, you are a great man, spare me! I'll have them clean this place up right now; if it's not restored to its original state, I will never let them leave! Rest assured, it will be exactly the same as before!"

He still clings to any hint of the Provincial Governor's young master demeanor, looking like a groveling lackey begging Jiang Feng for his life.

Jiang Feng watches his posture without speaking, just quietly staring at him.

Seeing Jiang Feng remain silent makes Du Fusheng even more frantic; he quickly turns his head and roars at the heads of the three departments.

"Did you all hear that? Are your ears deaf or what!"

His voice is sharp, filled with unprecedented panic.

"Right now, immediately! Restore this place to its original state! Jiang Ge, whatever medicine you broke, you must replace it tenfold even if it costs ten times the price! The medicine cabinet, the shelves, and every piece of medicine on the Ground must be returned to how they were! If there's any deviation, you all get the hell out! Not only will I lose my job, I'll also make sure you can't survive in Jiangnan Province!"

The three department leaders' faces flash pale and white, cursing Du Fusheng a thousand times in their hearts.

Damn! Isn't it you who made us deal with Jiang Feng?

Now that trouble's arisen, all the responsibility is being shoved onto us!

What the heck! You used to point fingers at us, now you bite like a mad dog! Is the second generation this hateful?

The three had hoped to gain promotion by flattering Du Fusheng; now not only is promotion impossible, they might even lose their jobs, feeling utterly resentful.

No matter how dissatisfied they are, they dare not voice any opinion.

Du Fusheng's father is the Provincial Governor of Jiangnan Province; crushing them would be as easy as crushing an ant.

Now they can only blame themselves for being blinded by greed, believing Du Fusheng's words, and offending Jiang Feng, the Demon God.

"Yes, yes, Young Master Du, we'll handle it right now! Right now!"

The three quickly nod and bow, forcing flattering smiles onto their faces, daring not to delay.

"What are you still standing around for? Hurry and bring people to buy medicine! Clean up the shop!"

The bearded man turns to his staff and shouts, now he can only vent his anger onto his subordinates.

"Quick! Move faster! If anyone dares to slack off, I won't spare them!"

"Split into two groups: one stays to clean, wiping the medicine cabinet and shelves, arranging them neatly; the other goes with me to buy medicine, remember, it must be exactly the same, no slightest error!"

"Understood!"

All staff dare not delay, springing into action.

Du Fusheng kneels on the Ground, not daring to breathe, occasionally glancing at Jiang Feng, his heart uneasy.

His only thought now is to get these people to restore Ji Shi Tang to its original state quickly, then leave this terrifying place.

Time passes minute by minute, and Ji Shi Tang is bustling with activity.

Half an hour later, Ji Shi Tang finally returns to its original state, even cleaner and tidier than before.

The three department heads are drenched in sweat, panting heavily, standing aside with exhausted faces, daring not utter a single complaint.

Du Fusheng also scrambles up from the Ground, like a lackey rushing to Jiang Feng, his face plastered with flattering smiles.

"Jiang Ge, look! Everything's restored, exactly the same as before, no difference at all! If there's anything you're dissatisfied with, just say, I'll have them correct it immediately!"

He says while carefully watching Jiang Feng's expression, fearing Jiang Feng's displeasure.

Jiang Feng's gaze sweeps the entire Ji Shi Tang, indeed unchanged from before.

He nods, his tone still flat.

"This time, consider yourself lucky, kid."

He pauses, a hint of amusement on his face.

"I welcome you to trouble me again next time, because next time, I won't give you another chance."

Hearing this, Du Fusheng trembles all over, hurriedly nodding, his face full of terror.

"Wouldn't dare, wouldn't dare! Absolutely not! I'll rush back to the Provincial Capital now, and never come to Jiangcheng again, never disturb you, Jiang Ge!"

He now just wants to leave this place, the farther from Jiang Feng the better, never wanting to see the Demon God again in this life.

Jiang Feng's gaze shifts to Shen Junyao, then back to Du Fusheng.

"Also, Shen Junyao is my friend. I tell you clearly, she doesn't like you; stop bothering her from now on, understand?"

"Understood! Understood!"

Du Fusheng quickly nods like a garlic press, his face full of sycophantic smiles.

"I understand! I wish Jiang Ge and Miss Shen a lifetime of happiness, forever united! It was my ignorance before, blinded, but from now on I guarantee to stay far from Miss Shen, never disturb her life again!"

After speaking, he seems to recall something, a trace of grievance appearing on his face.

"Jiang Ge, actually this isn't entirely my fault! When Lu Zhengming that old guy introduced Miss Shen to me, he said she was single and even claimed she liked me, so I got carried away and tried to pursue her."

"If I'd known Miss Shen was your friend, even borrowing a hundred courage, I still wouldn't dare!"

Hearing this, Jiang Feng's eyebrows slightly furrow.

"Why did Lu Zhengming introduce Shen Junyao to you?"

Du Fusheng, seeing Jiang Feng ask about this, did not dare to hide it and hurriedly said.

"Actually it's because my father is the Provincial Governor, and Lu Zhengming wants to take another step. I heard that the Kyoto Medical Administration Department recently lacks a Deputy Director‑General position; Lu Zhengming has been in the Director‑General position of the Jiangnan Medical Administration for many years and has always wanted to develop in Kyoto, to move up another step."

He paused briefly, then continued.

"Our Du Family still has some connections in Kyoto, and with my father's prestige, if the Du Family is willing to speak for him, his Deputy Director‑General position is almost certain to be secured. That's why he wants to introduce Miss Shen to me, tie his affairs to our Du Family, and have us help him operate in Kyoto."

Du Fusheng's words were unfinished, but the meaning was already clear.

Lu Zhengming just wants to use Shen Junyao to ingratiate himself with the Du Family, thereby achieving his own promotion.

Jiang Feng heard this, and his gaze instantly turned cold.

So it turns out he wants to sell his daughter for his future!

Crucially, Shen Junyao is not your own daughter, Lu Zhengming! On what right

"Do something for me: I want this Lu Zhengming to step down from his current position!"
