TDDDMFM Chapter 10:
"Alright, listen to me, no one is allowed to act recklessly!" Shen Xinmin shook his head.
For some reason, Shen Xinmin had a faint ominous feeling in his heart at this moment, feeling that Zhou Xiaobei's words might not just be empty threats.
If it's true...
Then this kid absolutely cannot die!
When it really becomes necessary, he still needs this kid to save his life.
"There's no need to lower ourselves to the level of a wild kid from the countryside, especially since he's under Yan Shikai's protection. There's no need to escalate the situation with the Yan family over him... After this, no one is allowed to mention this matter again, and the banquet will continue."
With that, Shen Xinmin stood up. "Yueyue, call Dr. Wang and ask him to come over. I'm feeling a bit unwell."
"Dad, why not go to the hospital?" Shen Yeh suggested.
"We have a private doctor, why go to the hospital?"
Shen Xinmin snorted and began to walk, but suddenly felt a piercing pain in his right calf, followed by a chain reaction of pain throughout his entire body.
"Dad, what's wrong with you!"
Shen Yue quickly supported Shen Xinmin.
Shen Xinmin shook his head. "Probably another high uric acid attack, gout is acting up again, it's nothing."
"Father, let me call Dr. Wang for you, just endure it for a while," Shen Yue said.
"Is it Dr. Wang Boyu? I happen to have his number. Yueyue, take care of your uncle, and I'll take care of contacting Dr. Wang. I'll send someone to pick him up." Dong Tianming volunteered.
"Then thank you, Mr. Dong!"
In just a short while, Shen Xinmin was sweating profusely from the pain, unable to stand steadily. He could only be supported by Shen Yue as they went upstairs to rest.
...
Zhou Xiaobei walked out of Yue Lai Grand Hotel with Yan Bingxue, his head held high and proud.
As soon as they stepped out of the door, Yan Bingxue immediately turned her face away and pushed away his salty pig hands, saying unkindly, "The show is over. Remove your filthy hands. Are you addicted to hugging?"
"..."
Zhou Xiaobei reluctantly released his grip.
It must be said that Yan Bingxue's waist was really slender, even thinner than the widow Wang's waist in the village. Moreover, although separated by clothes, he could still feel the tight muscles of this girl.
This girl probably has six-pack abs.
Yan Shikai smiled at Zhou Xiaobei. "Xiaobei, you should have some acquaintances in Xiangcheng by now. Since that's the case, why not stay at our Yan family's place for a while?"
"Is it convenient to go to your house?"
Zhou Xiaobei felt a bit embarrassed.
He did save Yan Shikai's life, but the man hadn't treated him unfairly either. He had given him a million, and just now, he had helped him stand up on stage. In the end, he actually owed Yan Shikai. How could he shamelessly go to their house to eat and drink?
Zhou Xiaobei also had some self-respect.
"That's indeed inappropriate, Grandpa. I think it's better to let Dr. Wang stay at the hotel," Yan Bingxue said expressionlessly.
Yan Shikai nodded. "Alright, let's not go then. Let's go to the hotel."
Yan Shikai instructed the driver to drive directly to the Shangri-La Hotel.
There were many five-star hotels in Xiangcheng, but the Shangri-La Grand Hotel was definitely top-notch, capable of providing any service imaginable.
Upon arrival at the hotel, the room was already prepared.
The Presidential Suite on the twenty-third floor.
As soon as he entered, Zhou Xiaobei's buddies were all stunned.
Is this a hotel?
This is clearly a huge suite!
It's over 200 square meters, with a spacious living room and four rooms: one master bedroom, one study, and two guest rooms. The accommodations are complete, and the master bedroom's bathroom is super large, with a round bathtub by the window.
What impressed Zhou Xiaobei the most was the large bed in the master bedroom.
A huge round bed that can easily accommodate four people.
Unfortunately, he's a single dog.
Yan Shikai chuckled. "This Presidential Suite is used by our Yan family to entertain distinguished guests. It's open all year round, so you can rest assured staying here, Xiaobei. If you need anything, just tell the staff, or call me anytime."
"Yan old man, you're really too kind!"
Zhou Xiaobei was deeply moved.
From childhood to adulthood, except for his five masters, no one had ever been this good to him. Zhou Xiaobei almost couldn't help but ask Yan Shikai if he needed a son.
He wanted to be his godson.
Yan Shikai smiled and suddenly pulled Zhou Xiaobei aside, looking mysterious and secretive. "Xiaobei, how did you consider what I said at the hotel earlier?"
Yan Bingxue didn't follow, but watched from afar as her grandfather whispered to Zhou Xiaobei, furrowing her eyebrows uncontrollably.
Grandpa is becoming more and more like a child!
Zhou Xiaobei smirked. "Grandpa, I think let's forget about it!"
"Why, don't you like Bingxue?" Yan Shikai was a bit puzzled.
The old man was trying to get to the bottom of it, but Zhou Xiaobei certainly couldn't tell the truth. He found a random excuse to brush it off. "Well, Yan old man, your granddaughter is nice, but our personalities don't match. Look at her, she looks at me like she wants to fight. If we were together, she'd probably beat me up eight times a day. For the sake of my lifelong happiness, I think I'll wait a bit!"
Yan Shikai chuckled, at a loss for words, but he didn't insist too much.
He was just asking. If he really married his granddaughter to Zhou Xiaobei, he'd feel a bit reluctant.
Yan Shikai smiled again. "Alright, no rush. Take your time to consider. Whenever you've made up your mind, just let me know. My granddaughter doesn't have a suitor for the time being, she hasn't even been in a relationship. Oh right, here's a card with a million in it, no password."
Yan Shikai handed the card to Zhou Xiaobei.
Zhou Xiaobei was ecstatic.
A million! He had never seen so much money in his life.
Yan old man really is a big shot.
"Xiaobei, it's getting late. You should rest early. We won't disturb you anymore."
"Okay, goodbye."
Yan Shikai and Yan Bingxue left, leaving Zhou Xiaobei alone in the suite.
Zhou Xiaobei had never lived in such a large house before. There were some things inside that he didn't even know how to use. Of course, it's not that his masters didn't treat him well, it's just that the conditions on the mountain were limited.
First, he took a refreshing bath, scrubbing off two pounds of dirt.
Then he changed into the hotel-provided pajamas and looked at himself in the mirror.
Apart from being a bit dark, this guy was really handsome.
With his hands behind his back, he wandered around the suite, thinking that when he had money, he would definitely buy such a large and grand house, and then bring his five masters over to live together.
"Ah, it's a pity. The five masters aren't here. If they were, living together would be so harmonious and enjoyable. Masters, don't worry, I will definitely find you, definitely!"
