My Ares Son-in-Law
Chapter 6557 The Old Fox
After all, to deal with the increasingly rampant and powerful Prison Clan in the future, his own strength is too weak and he will need many like-minded helpers.
After all, the Wang family is a well-known and prestigious family in this area, and has considerable fame in the entire eastern region.
Their family has a deep foundation and extensive network of contacts. If you can make friends with such a family and establish a good relationship, it will definitely be a profitable deal no matter from which angle you look at it.
As the matter was settled, the slightly heavy atmosphere in the private room instantly dissipated, and everyone was once again immersed in laughter and continued to drink and chat.
Everyone was toasting each other and chatting happily, and the atmosphere was as harmonious as if old friends were gathering together for many years.
After eating and drinking, night has quietly fallen.
Xiao Chen and Huang Jian stood up and said goodbye to Wang Chongshan and others one by one.
They walked out of the luxurious building with steady steps.
The night breeze blew gently, bringing a hint of coolness, but it also made Xiao Chen's mind clearer.
The two walked side by side on the way back to their residence, and Huang Jian's eyes inadvertently fell on the ancient training ring on Xiao Chen's wrist.
He was slightly shocked and said with emotion: "Wang Chongshan really spent a lot of money. This training ring is a treasure that has been passed down from generation to generation in their Wang family. It is said that someone offered one million spirit stones to buy this training ring before, but he was not tempted at all and refused to sell it. I didn't expect that he would be so generous to give it to you."
Huang Jian said this with envy in his eyes.
Xiao Chen raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and said:
"It just shows how important the patient he asked me to treat was to him.
He first gave me this extremely precious gift in an attempt to win me over to join the Wang family. I accepted the gift but refused to join. Under such circumstances, I naturally felt embarrassed to refuse to treat him. I have to say that Wang Chongshan's calculations were really shrewd, one thing after another."
As Xiao Chen spoke, he gently turned the training ring on his wrist, with a thoughtful gleam in his eyes.
He knew very well that this trip to Tianhai City would not be a simple medical treatment trip, and there might be many unknown challenges and opportunities hidden in it.
Huang Jian had a relaxed smile on his face, with a different light flashing in his eyes. He looked at Xiao Chen and said:
"I think Wang Chongshan's invitation was genuine and sincere.
Just think about it, in this world of talented people and fierce competition, which family would not dream of recruiting a top talent like you who is gifted, powerful, and proficient in medicine?
I can clearly see the desire for talent in Wang Chongshan's eyes."
Huang Jian shook his head gently as he spoke, his face full of emotion, as if he was imagining the envious and jealous expressions of other families if they knew that Wang Chongshan had invited Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen shook his head slightly, his expression showing indifference. He was not at all disturbed by what Huang Jian said about recruiting these families.
In his eyes, fame, wealth and power are nothing but passing clouds. No matter how tempting the olive branches thrown by those families are, they cannot touch his heart in the slightest.
No matter how smart Wang Chongshan was, no matter how clever his methods were, to him, it was like a breeze blowing on his face, not causing a single ripple. After all, he was not someone who would be easily disturbed by external factors. In his own words, he was very thick-skinned. Xiao Chen paused and asked, "By the way, do you know who is sick in the Wang family? This patient must be someone special to make Wang Chongshan go to so much trouble."
Huang Jian heard this and showed a helpless expression on his face. He spread his hands, shook his head and said:
"I really don't know about that. On weekdays, when I deal with the Wang family, most of the time we talk about business matters, or some irrelevant gossip about family matters. We rarely talk about the secret private affairs of their family. Moreover, their family has always kept these matters secret, so it is difficult for outsiders to get any information."
As Huang Jian spoke, he frowned slightly, as if he was regretting that he could not provide more information.
Xiao Chen nodded gently, his face calm, and said: "Then forget about it for now. Anyway, we will go to Tianhai City as agreed. Whether it is a mule or a horse, we will take it out for a walk and naturally know the patient's condition."
His tone revealed a calmness and confidence, as if he was fully confident of dealing with any disease.
Huang Jian's signature smile appeared on his face again. He moved closer to Xiao Chen and said with a hint of sarcasm:
"If you cure the patient, your relationship with the Wang family will definitely be further improved. With the Wang family's style, they will definitely be grateful to you. If they can thank you with a treasure better than this training ring, then you will really make a fortune.
Perhaps the rare treasures that the Wang family has treasured for many years and that even outsiders have never heard of will be placed in front of you for you to choose from. "
As Huang Jian spoke, his eyes flickered with excitement, as if he had already seen the scene of Xiao Chen harvesting countless treasures.
The two of them walked back along the street, talking and laughing.
Along the way, the attention of passers-by was attracted by Xiao Chen.
Many people's eyes were filled with amazement and admiration, and some even took the initiative to smile and greet Xiao Chen enthusiastically.
Among these people, there are young warriors who are just starting out and have great respect for Xiao Chen, as well as seniors who have been in the martial arts world for many years and deeply recognize Xiao Chen's strength.
Facing everyone's gaze, Xiao Chen looked calm, but there were ripples in his heart. He knew very well that this so-called "fame" was both an honor and a burden in this complicated world.
But at this moment, he had no interest in the outside world's attention. His mind was already focused on how to weaken the power of the Prison Clan, a matter of life and death.
Xiao Chen thought to himself that the power of the Prison Clan was becoming more and more rampant, like a giant beast in the dark, which could devour everything at any time.
If he doesn't find a way to weaken their power as soon as possible, if something really happens in the future, he won't even be able to protect his most cherished family. This is absolutely unacceptable to him and is also the heaviest worry in his heart.
As they walked, they came to a quiet and deserted alley.
It was so quiet around that the only sound you could hear was the rustling of leaves in the breeze.
Xiao Chen stopped and looked serious. He turned to Huang Jian and said, "You go back first. I have some important things to do. I need to find Huang Tianba. There are some things that need to be figured out as soon as possible. There is no time to lose."
After saying this, he nodded slightly and said goodbye to Huang Jian. Then, his figure flashed and disappeared at the end of the alley like a ghost, leaving Huang Jian standing there, looking in the direction he left, thinking. (End of this chapter)
