Chapter 138 - 139: The Lady Boss’s Invitation

Chapter 138: Chapter 139: The Lady Boss’s Invitation

The moment he saw Li Yang, He Weiweng ignored his crippled leg and collapsed to the ground with a THUD. "Divine Doctor Li, please, save me!"

Li Yang walked right past him, without giving him a second glance.

Only after passing him did Li Yang turn back to look at He Weiweng. "Huh, isn’t this the old man who wanted to buy my secret medicinal wine formula for ten thousand yuan? Mr. He, right? I remember you’re from Hundred Herbs Hall. What’s wrong? What’s all this kneeling about?"

"Divine Doctor Li, I’m sorry. It was my fault before. I’m willing to apologize... I’m so sorry. I’m begging you to save me..." He Weiweng kowtowed to Li Yang.

He really didn’t want to die.

’I’m still so young! I have so many good years left to enjoy. I don’t want to die.’

The members of the He Family were extremely embarrassed.

The problem was, they were powerless to do anything about it. Their only option was to beg Li Yang.

"You’re too kind..." Li Yang chuckled. "Why be so polite? You were pretty arrogant just a couple of days ago. I told you then that an old man shouldn’t be so arrogant, but you wouldn’t listen. You get it now, don’t you?"

He Weiweng could only repeat, "I’m sorry, I’m sorry..."

"Saving you is simple enough..." Li Yang finally got to the point. "Kneel and give the proprietress three loud kowtows."

THUMP! THUMP!...

Li Yang had barely finished speaking when He Weiweng, without a hint of hesitation, had already kowtowed three times toward Shang Hongyun.

Li Yang was dumbfounded.

’Damn, this old man is more spineless than I could have ever imagined. Did I make the conditions too easy?’

"Divine Doctor, please, save me..." He Weiweng was on the verge of tears.

"That should be enough..." Shang Hongyun spoke up, persuading Li Yang. "He’s an old man, after all."

"He was plenty arrogant back then, getting your shop shut down," Li Yang said irritably. "If I hadn’t gone to speak with Director Feng, your shop would still be closed. He might have even run you out of business."

"That’s why I’ll have to thank you properly tonight," Shang Hongyun whispered, her expression turning seductive.

’Damn!’

Li Yang was out of options. He walked over to He Weiweng and said, "Lie down."

As soon as He Weiweng heard this, he immediately lay down on the spot.

Li Yang immediately used his Acupuncture Technique.

Soon, once the Acupuncture Technique was applied, He Weiweng’s pain subsided.

After a little over ten minutes, Li Yang withdrew the needles, wrote out a prescription, and finally said, "Alright, here’s your prescription. Take the medicine on time and stop trying to get yourself killed. And remember this for next time: try to be a good person. Otherwise, your actions will always come back to bite you."

"Yes, yes, yes..." He Weiweng scrambled up like a dog. "Never again..."

After saying this, he was too ashamed to stay any longer and quickly left, supported by his family.

"President Li, you’re amazing!" "So, what’s next, President Li? Oh, I know. Why don’t you stay at my place tonight?"

This was a blatant invitation.

Seeing her like this, Li Yang steeled himself and said, "Alright, boss lady. But don’t expect to open the shop tomorrow."

The proprietress’s body shook with laughter. "Alright then. Let’s give it a try."

’Who’s afraid of who? Bring it on!’

Li Yang truly wasn’t afraid. "Alright, then. Just don’t come begging for mercy later."

Li Yang was dead set on having a ’great battle’ with the proprietress and showing her what he was made of, so he stayed there all afternoon.

That evening, Li Yang eagerly awaited closing time.

The proprietress grabbed her things, and with a seductive smile, she prepared to follow Li Yang to a hotel.

But just as they stepped outside the resort, they saw three men standing there.

"You’re Li Yang from Bishui Village?" the man in front asked, pointing at Li Yang.

Li Yang’s heart skipped a beat; he could sense an unusual aura about these men.

"What do you want with me?"

After confirming his identity, the man said nothing more. He suddenly lunged forward and threw a punch at Li Yang.

Fast as lightning!

Ever since consuming that drop of water, Li Yang’s own movements had become incredibly fast, but this man’s speed still astonished him. He’d never seen anyone move so quickly.

’Except for me, of course.’

"Get lost!" Li Yang was getting angry now. ’I don’t even know you people, and you just walk up and start a fight? What the hell?’

In that same instant, Li Yang’s fist collided with the man’s.

The man let out a muffled grunt and stumbled backward.

The expressions of the other two brutes changed. They exchanged a look and were about to charge forward.

Li Yang moved as swift as flight, dashing forward and planting a kick on one of the men.

The man was sent flying backward.

Before the other man could even react, Li Yang appeared before him like a phantom, violently hoisted him into the air, and slammed him down behind him.

With a loud THUD, the man hit the ground and didn’t get back up.

Li Yang strode forward, about to pin one of the men under his foot.

"Hold it..." Just then, a sharp cry came from behind him.
