~6 min read 1,191 words

Hearing this, Wang Tianheng was startled and hurried to try to dodge.

However, Wang Yunfu's speed was still a step ahead of him.

Wang Tianheng was pressed to the ground by Wang Yunfu, watching this father‑against‑son scene.

Jiangnan fell silent for a moment, even feeling a bit of sympathy for Wang Tianheng.

It seemed there was no need at all; he intervened personally.

Wang Yunfu had already pinned Wang Tianheng down tightly, leaving him no chance to move.

Seeing this, Jiangnan grew tired of their father‑son drama and was about to speak to Murong Wan.

At that moment, his phone suddenly rang.

"Jiang Shao, there's something I need to report to you in person."

"I wonder if you have time?"

The call came from Song Zining; Jiangnan knew that Song Zining never contacts him unless there's a matter.

Thinking of that, Jiangnan said to Murong Wan, "I have something now; I'll come pick you up later."

"You go ahead and be busy."

After speaking, Jiangnan turned and left.

After a short while.

Nan Shen Group.

"Jiang Shao, this is the recent list of Jinghai companies seeking cooperation with our firm; please review it!"

Song Zining produced a document and placed it carefully on the table.

Hearing that, Jiangnan picked up the file and began reading.

Half a minute later, he suddenly discovered that the list included five major families wanting to partner with Nan Shen Group.

The projects they sought to cooperate on occupied Jinghai's four great wonders!

Xuanwu Bay, Zhuque Sea, Qinglong Mountain, and Baihu Temple!

These four wonders are Jinghai's most famous tourist spots.

If the five families truly took over, they'd turn them into resorts.

The assets of the five families would be driven by tourists, forming a continuous tourism chain.

Among the five families, Li Shi Group is also present!

Unfortunately, Jiangnan would not give them that.

Because he had his eye on an emerging group that showed great potential.

It is the first pawn for his takeover of Jinghai's business circle!

"Prepare the car, Mingxiu Group!"

Jiangnan gave the order, and Song Zining immediately began preparations.

Quickly, in less than five minutes,

Jiangnan arrived at Mingxiu Group; just as he was about to enter, a cry for help came from behind.

"Grandpa, what's wrong with you!"

"Grandpa, don't scare me! Wake up quickly—any kind soul who can save my grandfather, the Xu family will repay you greatly!"

A stunning woman in a white suit, with a cold and noble aura, knelt before a pallid old man.

And she was none other than Mingxiu Group's beautiful CEO Xu Wanqing!

Her face was tense as she repeatedly called for help, but no one dared to approach.

The fallen man was the Xu family patriarch Xu Tianxiong; he started from nothing at twenty, built his own business empire by thirty‑five, hailed as one of Jinghai's three tycoons, worth tens of billions!

He stood on equal footing with Jinghai's richest man Jiang Haotian and Tianlong Group's general manager Bai Changshan, even surpassing them.

No one dared take that risk; if they killed the old master, they'd face lawsuits and become the Xu family's enemy.

Only a fool would try to rescue him.

Yet Jiangnan simply could not bear to see this.

"My master taught me that a healer must be compassionate; today we are fated, so I'll make an exception and treat you."

Jiangnan muttered softly and walked straight to the stunning woman.

Jiangnan muttered softly and walked straight to the stunning woman.

"Your grandfather's illness is caused by toxins deposited in his blood vessels, leading to blockage."

"Saving him is simple; just clear the vessels and let some blood flow."

Jiangnan explained to Xu Wanqing and reached for the Silver Needle to begin.

"How dare you, who gave you a medical license? You dare treat patients without certification!"

At that moment, a youth in a white coat with a stern face rushed forward.

"Old Master Xu, this isn't a vascular blockage at all; stop spouting nonsense here."

"This ailment can be cured with a single pill!"

The youth took a box of medicine from his pocket, intending to give it to the old man.

"Fool! A vascular blockage can't be solved with medicine; you're treating the symptom, not the cause."

Jiangnan seized the youth's hand on the spot and scolded him.

"Where did this brat come from, daring to question Dr. Lin's diagnosis!"

"Do you know that Dr. Lin is an overseas‑trained medical PhD, graduated from Harvard Medical School, a three‑time Lasker Award winner, renowned worldwide, hailed as a Western medicine master!"

"You have no right to compare yourself with him; be sensible and step aside."

A man and a woman suddenly appeared before Jiangnan, bragging about Dr. Lin Jiancheng's top‑notch abilities.

In Jiangnan's eyes, they are nothing but a troupe of Jumping Clowns!

"I advise you to step aside; you have nothing to do here."

"As long as I act, Old Master's illness will be cured by the medicine!"

Arrogance was written all over Lin Jiancheng's face, and his tone was utterly overbearing!

"I give way to you; if any problem arises, don't ask me."

Jiangnan gave a reminder and stepped aside.

Seeing this, Lin Jiancheng thought Jiangnan had fled, approached the Old Master, and on the spot removed the Golden Needle that Jiangnan had inserted.

"You dare use such feudal superstition as Chinese medicine?"

"Aren't you afraid you'll kill the Old Master?"

Lin Jiancheng said that and was about to administer medicine to the Old Master.

Result!

It turned out that the Old Master, whose toxins had been suppressed, suddenly spewed fresh blood, his face black and purple!

"Fool, you intend to kill the Old Master!"

"Just now, Medical Sage, that single Golden Needle blood‑drawing technique is enough for you to study for a lifetime, and you still dare disrespect the Doctor, truly blind!"

At that moment, an elder suddenly rushed over and scolded Lin Jiancheng.

The elder was none other than the Northwest Medicine King!

Now, he is merely a junior medicine apprentice beside Jiangnan.

He had originally come here to see Old Master Xu take his pulse.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered, he saw Lin Jiancheng humiliating Jiangnan.

Moreover, he had also pulled out the Golden Needle that could save Old Master Xu of the Xu family.

It is understandable, given Lin Jiancheng's narrow outlook, that he could not comprehend the medical technique Jiangnan just employed.

If he cannot understand, then his sixty years of medical practice may as well have been taught to a dog.

"The Golden Needle draws blood, lifts blood and resolves stasis; this needle method is the stasis‑resolving technique among the Twenty‑Six Sky‑Gang Needles. I am correct, aren't I, sir?"

The North Sea Medicine King respectfully approached Jiangnan and presented the needle method he had performed.

"Indeed, although the Twenty‑Six Sky‑Gang Needles are the worst among the medical arts I know, they are sufficient to save Old Master Xu."

Jiangnan spoke very calmly, as if this needle method was of no consequence to him.

But to the Northwest Medicine King's ears, it was a silent exclamation: "Monster! Truly a monster!"
