When I first entered high school, the system insisted that I was destined to be an emperor in my lat

"Xiao Xingye, you better reflect on your actions!"

"And Wan Ning, you shouldn't go out these next few days either!"

Xiao Tianhe pushed open the door and walked out of the ward.

"Mr. Xiao, that young man is no ordinary person."

"It wasn't just his performance in killing the alien beast with his fists that was remarkable; what was even more remarkable was that he didn't show the slightest fear in front of me."

Old Tang, standing behind him with his hands behind his back, spoke with a somewhat solemn expression.

"If this young man can be won over, he may become the pillar of the Xiao family in the future."

"Win them over? Hmph!"

Xiao Tianhe shook his head and smiled, his brows furrowed with exhaustion. "Of course I know this kid is Xingye's savior."

"If he were just an ordinary student, I would definitely visit him with generous gifts to express my gratitude."

"But he...is not good enough for Wan Ning!"

"Didn't you see the way Wan Ning looked at him just now?"

"Those are eyes that truly show emotion!"

"I've investigated; he and Wan Ning were together in junior high school."

At this point, Xiao Tianhe clenched his fists, his face filled with determination.

If he hadn't known this information, why would he have been so harsh on Jiang Feng just now!

Jiang Feng saved his son, and he can thank him.

Don't even mention 100,000, I'd give you a million!

However, Jiang Feng and his daughter absolutely cannot be together!

As a father, he had to nip the budding romance in the bud as soon as possible!

"Our Xiao family may seem glamorous, but in reality, we're walking on thin ice."

Xiao Tianhe walked down the corridor and sighed: "Huichuntang's sales have dropped by 30% this quarter, not only because of competition with Miaoyifang, but also because of the two new establishments, Baicaotang and Suwenguan."

"These two pharmacies not only have provincial capital backgrounds, but even the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission has participated in the capital injection. They are suppressing us fiercely in terms of the retail price of pills and policy."

"If the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission loses its support, the Xiao Group will collapse in no time."

Upon hearing this, Old Tang's expression turned solemn.

"Therefore, I must marry Wan Ning off to a member of the Wang family!"

"The Wang family's main martial arts chain is the dominant force in Linchuan City. Wang Zhan is a fourth-grade eight-star grandmaster, and even has one foot in the door of a fifth-grade grandmaster."

"Once the two families form a marriage alliance, those wolves and tigers won't dare to lay a finger on my Huichuntang again!"

Old Tang opened his mouth, but then stopped himself from speaking.

In his view, rejecting a young genius with unlimited potential and instead betting on the Wang family is tantamount to asking a tiger for its skin!

The forces behind Miaoyifang, Baicaotang, and Suwenguan may be wolves in sheep's clothing!

But the Wang family are the real tigers!

I have been following Xiao Tianhe for several years now.

Over the years, I know he has made many decisions that seemed fine at the time, but later I realized how ridiculously wrong they were.

Xiao Tianhe lacked foresight to some extent.

To put it bluntly, that's short-sighted!

Jiang Feng is only eighteen years old, but he already possesses strength comparable to a third-grade martial artist!

With his talent, he could break through to the fourth-grade Grandmaster level in less than two years!

He became a grandmaster, and with his patronage, he became a revered figure.

With two fourth-rank grandmasters in charge, other forces dared not act recklessly.

Xiao Tianhe, however, chose to collude with the Wang family.

It's likely that the Xiao Group will be completely devoured by the Wang family in less than six months!

Moreover, they've now offended Jiang Feng.

It's like making an enemy.

But Tang Lao was ultimately just a worshipper, so he could only sigh silently and close his eyes.

……

at the same time.

Jiang Feng and Shen Weilan got into a taxi carrying the cake and birthday presents.

"Wei Lan, you're so smart, knowing to put these things in the convenience store first."

Jiang Feng looked at the intact cake and breathed a sigh of relief.

It's only 3 PM.

When I get home, I'll be there in time for dinner and be able to celebrate my mom's birthday properly!

"snort."

Shen Weilan rolled her eyes at him.

Jiang Feng pushed so many things onto her, she certainly couldn't carry them all the time, so she had to find a shop to put them away first.

The sunlight outside the car window fell on the two of them.

"Brother...aren't you angry?"

Shen Weilan gently rested her head on Jiang Feng's shoulder and asked in a low voice.

"What are you angry about?"

Jiang Feng looked at the scenery outside the window with a calm expression.

"Those things Xiao Tianhe said!"

He also said... that you and Xiao Wan Ning should never have any contact again.

Shen Weilan's tone carried a hint of probing.

Jiang Feng laughed, turned to look at his sister, and said teasingly, "If you said that, I would definitely be very angry."

"But what is Xiao Tianhe anyway?"

"As for never having any contact with Xiao Wan Ning again... I never cared in the first place."

Hearing Jiang Feng's reply, Shen Weilan smiled.

"elder brother……"

Shen Weilan turned her head slightly and looked at Jiang Feng's handsome profile.

"Um?"

"It's so kind of you."

Jiang Feng smiled and shook his head without saying anything, but simply tilted his shoulder towards his sister.

Inside the car, the sun shone brightly, and the world seemed peaceful and serene.

.......

at the same time.

Intersection in the city center.

Several heavy-duty tow trucks were dragging away the wreckage of cars that had been smashed to pieces.

Lei Ming, wearing a dust-covered coat, was on the front line directing the aftermath and body collection work.

"Chief, the preliminary list of casualties and the report on property damage at the scene have been compiled."

"Although the losses were heavy, Jiang Feng killed the demonic ape, so no greater losses were incurred."

A subordinate, covered in sweat, ran over to report to his superior.

Upon hearing the report, Lei Ming's tense expression finally relaxed a little.

"Chief, should we apply for a commendation for Jiang Feng's act of bravery?"

The subordinate continued to ask questions.

"Oh, right!"

"I almost forgot about that!"

Lei Ming slapped his forehead and said.

Jiang Feng has made such a great contribution; we absolutely cannot let him feel disheartened!

"I want to personally apply for the Canglan Medal for Jiang Feng!"

Upon hearing this, the subordinate's eyes widened.

Order of the Azure Waves!

A hundred years ago, a grandmaster from Linchuan City was attacked by a strange beast. He stepped forward to defend against the beast and died!

Lin Canglan!

In memory of him, Linchuan City established the Canglan Medal!

Over the years, fewer than ten people have been awarded the Order of Canglan!

Moreover, with the Canglan Medal, one can directly serve as a non-commissioned officer when joining the army, and can even serve as a section-level leader in politics!

If you choose to work in the Martial Arts Association, as long as your martial arts level reaches the standard, you can even directly serve as the president of the Martial Arts Association of a city!

This is an extremely prestigious medal!

More importantly, in addition to this medal, a bonus of 300,000 will also be awarded!

at the same time.

City Martial Arts Association.

Wang Ye stood in front of his desk, his voice filled with excitement and shock, and gave a detailed account of what had just happened.

After hearing the report, Long Yuan's expression changed; he hadn't expected Jiang Feng to perform so well.

"In accordance with the Martial Arts Association's bounty mission, Jiang Feng will be awarded points and a bonus. Next month's allowance will be distributed according to the standards for a third-rank martial artist."

He nodded slightly.

Upon hearing this, Wang Ye calculated that if a mission were to be issued, it would be considered a two-star mission.

However, the beast's strength is comparable to that of a third-grade martial artist, and the prize money is 300,000 and 300 points!

A third-rank martial artist receives a monthly stipend of 50,000!

"Yes, I'll go right now."

After Wang Ye left, Long Yuan got up and looked out the window.

"River Breeze".

"It seems I misjudged him."
