Chapter 83: Ma Zicheng Shows Off

The sky was bright.

Chen Che had searched all night but found no trace of Xu Di.

He felt frustrated; he should have gone to pursue Yang Simin himself instead of clinging to the clues of the Qian Family, only to lose the watermelon while picking up sesame seeds.

Now he might have to look for other leads!

Although he had searched all night, with True Qi protecting his body, Chen Che did not feel exhausted. After meditating to adjust himself, he instructed Shen Qi to continue the search and notify him immediately once there was news.

Afterward, Chen Che changed his clothes, drove back to the Qibao Association, picked up Ma Menghan, and headed to Xinrong Medical College together.

When the two arrived at Xinrong Medical College, it was exactly ten o'clock in the morning. Ma Zijun and the others had already arrived a step ahead.

Chen Che parked the SUV, got out with Ma Menghan, and met up with Ma Zijun and the other two.

"Brother."

Ma Menghan called out to Ma Zijun as a greeting. Ma Zicheng did not receive such treatment; of course, he did not care for it either.

Ma Zicheng was currently looking at Chen Che with a sinister expression. Seeing that the prized horse that originally belonged to him had become Chen Che's, and was now being flaunted in front of him, he felt the anger of having his own horse ridden by someone else.

Chen Che ignored Ma Zicheng's unfriendly gaze and said, "Since everyone is here, let's go in."

The group walked inside.

Ma Zijun said while walking, "The exchange meeting has already started, so it is not convenient for us to disturb them. Zicheng has already contacted the principal of the medical college, and he agreed to help arrange for us to have lunch with the Divine Doctor Li after the exchange meeting ends."

"Ma Shao acts very quickly; you thought of this more thoroughly than I did," Chen Che said.

"Not at all, the necessary greetings still have to be made."

Ma Zijun complimented, "Whether we can successfully invite the Divine Doctor Li in the end still depends on Mr. Chen."

The two chatted as they walked. When they were about to reach the teaching building, a man and a woman walked out of the building to welcome them.

The man was over fifty, with a typical Mediterranean hairstyle; he was the principal of this medical college, Luan Youdong.

And the woman beside him was someone Chen Che knew—the new Patriarch of the Qian Family, Qian Rongrong.

Chen Che did not expect to see Qian Rongrong here, but his confusion was resolved as Luan Youdong and Ma Zijun talked.

"Welcome, Young Master Ma, to our medical college. Let me introduce you; this is the owner behind our medical college, Qian Rongrong, President Qian."

Luan Youdong took the initiative to introduce her.

Ma Zijun reached out to Qian Rongrong with great gentlemanly flair and smiled, "Hello, President Qian. I didn't expect President Qian to be so young. Seeing you today is truly stunning."

"Young Master Ma is too kind. It is I who am flattered that you could come."

Qian Rongrong put on a professional smile and shook hands with Ma Zijun.

She intentionally glanced at Chen Che and Ma Menghan, then asked, "And these two are?"

Qian Rongrong clearly did not expect Chen Che to come with Ma Zijun and the others; Luan Youdong had only told her about the Ma brothers.

The moment she saw Chen Che, she instinctively wanted to step forward to greet him, but just as she took a step, she received a look from Chen Che, so she understood and pretended not to know him.

"This is Mr. Chen Che, a good friend of mine. These two are my younger brother and sister, and this is my assistant..."

Ma Zijun introduced them in a leisurely manner.

Ma Menghan and Lin Su also bowed slightly in response, while Ma Zicheng stared at Qian Rongrong with a dazed expression.

After receiving Ma Zijun's instructions, he had contacted Luan Youdong directly through a special channel and had not checked the owner behind the school at all.

Seeing Qian Rongrong at this moment, he was not only surprised but also stunned!

Qian Rongrong was wearing a well-tailored black suit jacket, the lines simple yet not lacking the unique softness of a woman. The collar was slightly open, revealing an exquisite white silk shirt underneath.

A small silver brooch was pinned to the collar of the shirt, shimmering with a low-key and elegant light.

Her lower body was a pair of slim-fit trousers in the same color, the cuffs fitting her black high heels perfectly, making her legs look even longer.

Her hair was groomed meticulously, the ink-black long hair twisted into a low bun at the back of her head, with a few stray strands hanging gently by her ears, adding a touch of feminine softness.

Her makeup was exquisite yet professional; the light eyeliner and a touch of red lipstick highlighted her professional temperament without losing a woman's charm.

Ma Zicheng's heart pounded, and a feeling of infatuation welled up in his heart; he could not take his eyes off her no matter what.

"Let's go inside to talk."

Qian Rongrong and Luan Youdong led Chen Che and the others into the teaching building. On the way to the reception room, they passed by a large lecture hall.

Inside the classroom, the professors and experts of the medical college sat in the front row, followed by the high-achieving students carefully cultivated by the school.

They were currently listening intently to Li Qingyan's brilliant lecture.

Li Qingyan stood on the podium, wearing a simple and elegant dark blue dress, the hem of which swayed gently, revealing a hint of feminine softness.

The cut of the dress perfectly set off her graceful figure, and the neckline was slightly open, revealing her fair neck and exquisite collarbones.

Her long hair was carefully coiled into a low bun, with a few stray strands falling gently, adding a touch of intellect and elegance to her. Her makeup was exquisite yet natural; the light eyeshadow and a touch of red lipstick made her look both professional and charming.

She wore a pair of thin-rimmed glasses, which did not cover up her beauty but instead added a touch of scholarly temperament. She wore a simple watch on her wrist, which complemented her style of dress, highlighting her professionalism and rigor as a medical professor.

She held a laser pointer in her hand, which slid gently across the screen as she explained, every movement revealing her confidence and composure. Her voice was clear and infectious, every word filled with love and persistence for medicine.

Her presence filled the entire academic exchange meeting with an academic atmosphere and the light of wisdom.

"That is Professor Li; she is truly dazzling!"

Chen Che and the others stopped at the classroom door, and Luan Youdong touched his Mediterranean hairline and sighed with emotion.

"Professor Li is a world-renowned Divine Doctor at such a young age. The way she is teaching right now is even more radiant. It is an honor for our school to be able to invite Divine Doctor Li!"

Qian Rongrong looked at Li Qingyan on the stage, revealing a woman's heartfelt appreciation for another woman.

Chen Che also nodded silently in agreement. He felt that the current Li Qingyan was her most real and beautiful self—confident, sunny, professional, and stunning!

Ma Zijun and Ma Menghan did not think that much; they only hoped that Li Qingyan could go to the Ma Family to treat their father.

Ma Zicheng was infatuated again!

He squeezed to the door and peered inside, clinging to the door frame.

Li Qingyan's effortless demeanor on stage deeply attracted him.

Although he had long heard that Li Qingyan was a beautiful Divine Doctor, seeing her in person, she was just too beautiful!

He had originally thought that Qian Rongrong was stunning enough, but he had not expected Li Qingyan to be even a cut above!

His heart began to beat even more violently; Ma Zicheng reluctantly withdrew his gaze and sighed with a dim expression.

He had a good sense of self-awareness; no matter how stunning Li Qingyan was, she was not someone he could touch.

A world-renowned Divine Doctor was someone whom countless noble families and powerful clans scrambled to curry favor with.

Although the Ma Family was not bad in Xia, there was always someone better, and besides, they still needed her to treat their illness.

Ma Zicheng dared not provoke this beautiful Divine Doctor.

However, Ma Zicheng quickly recovered. Li Qingyan was out of his league, but Qian Rongrong was more than enough.

A trump card family in Shanghai could not even compare to a mid-tier family in Jinling, let alone the Ma Family, which was worlds apart!

Ma Zicheng snuck a glance at Qian Rongrong, revealed a wicked smile, and secretly decided in his heart that he must take this opportunity today to win over this beautiful Patriarch!

"The academic exchange meeting will take about another hour; let's go to the reception room and wait."

Qian Rongrong said in a soft voice.

The group chatted in the reception room for a while, then Qian Rongrong excused herself to go to the restroom.

Ma Zicheng was excited, thinking his opportunity had arrived. He specifically borrowed perfume from Lin Su, and afterwards, he also left under the pretext of going to the restroom.

Chen Che remembered he wanted to ask Qian Rongrong if any abnormalities had appeared after the Qian Family and the Martial Arts Alliance stopped their medicinal herb business, so he also left the reception room.

The three left one after another; Ma Zijun and the others all looked puzzled, assuming the three of them had drunk too much tea.

However, what they did not know was that a good show was about to begin.
