Starting with a beautiful woman's private doctor

Chu Nan's right palm hovered above Jin Chenglie's head, the light of the fiery lotus in his palm illuminating his pale face.

"No, don't kill me!"

Kim Sung-yeol collapsed to the ground, his whole body trembling like a leaf.

One of the two Fiends, Bear and Snake, was blasted into a wall, while the other lay unconscious on the road. None of the strange people on the street dared to approach them.

"You...you know I'm the young master of the Jin family! If you let me go, I'll give you anything you want!"

Chu Nan remained silent, and the fire lotus shone even brighter.

"Mr. Chu, you mustn't kill him."

Qian Xinya walked over quickly and said in a low voice, "There are many people in Yishi today. No matter how bad Jin Chenglie is, he is still the second grandson of the Jin family. If you kill him here, there will really be no room for maneuver."

Chu Nan didn't speak, but Huo Lian didn't press down any further.

Xia Wantang also walked over. She glanced at Jin Chenglie, who was lying on the ground, and laughed, "Little cutie, don't be in such a hurry to do anything. Didn't this spendthrift say that he would give you anything as long as you let him go?"

"Young Master Jin, if you want to save your life, you'll have to offer something valuable in return, won't you?"

Kim Sung-yeol nodded frantically, as if grasping at a straw, "Yes, yes, yes! Crimson Blood Ginseng! Here, take the Crimson Blood Ginseng!"

Xia Wantang clicked her tongue. "That thing originally belonged to us. You snatched it and then returned it, and you think you can pay with your life? Young Master Jin, you've got quite the scheme."

Kim Sung-yeol froze, his lips trembling, and after a long while, he managed to squeeze out, "Money! I'll buy my life with money, okay?"

"How many?"

"One hundred million."

Xia Wantang laughed out loud, "One hundred million? Young Master Jin, you are the young master of the Jin family, one of the four great families in Beijing. Is your life only worth one hundred million? If word gets out, how will you ever be able to survive in this industry again?"

People around couldn't help but laugh, but quickly covered their mouths.

Kim Sung-yeol's face flushed and paled in turns. After a long silence, he gritted his teeth and said, "Ten billion! I'll give you ten billion!"

Xia Wantang's eyes lit up.

One billion, that's quite a number.

She was about to nod when Chu Nan spoke up, "Ten billion."

The entire room fell silent.

Kim Sungyeol opened his mouth wide, as if he hadn't heard clearly, "Wh...what?"

Chu Nan said calmly, "Give it to me and I'll let you go; don't... I'll send you on your way."

Xia Wantang was stunned.

She considered herself ruthless enough when it came to money, but the figure of 10 billion still made her think that Chu Nan was a bit outrageously crazy.

Qian Xinya's expression changed drastically; she knew the true nature of the situation in the capital better than Xia Wantang.

A billion dollars to buy a life? That's just a private grudge between juniors, and the Jin family can just swallow their pride and accept it.

But 10 billion is like pressing the Jin family's head down and stomping it on the ground.

This is no longer just about taking Kim Sung-yeol's life; it's about slapping the Kim family in the face.

"Mr. Chu, this number..."

Chu Nan didn't let her finish speaking, but just looked at Kim Sung-yeol. "Will you give it to me or not?"

Kim Sung-yeol's brain had turned to mush.

Where would he get 10 billion?

But with Chu Nan's fiery lotus hovering right above his head, the scorching sensation rendered him completely incapable of thinking, and he almost instinctively blurted out, "Give it! I'll give it to you!"

"But... I don't have that much money on me, I need to go home and get some."

After saying this, his mind suddenly cleared, and a hidden joy flashed in his eyes.

Today is the old master's 90th birthday, and all the experts, guest advisors, and direct descendants of the Jin family are gathered at the mansion.

If Chu Nan goes with them, what difference is there between that and sending them to their deaths?

"Come back to the Jin family with me, and I promise I'll give you the money!"

Jin Chenglie, fearing that Chu Nan might change his mind, added another sentence.

Qian Xinya's expression changed. "Mr. Chu, you can't go. Today is Old Master Jin's 90th birthday. All the Jin family's retainers and guests are here. He's clearly setting a trap for you."

Wenbo also forced himself to step forward, "Mr. Chu, Miss is right. The Jin family is a family of martial arts masters with a profound foundation. There are many grandmasters in the mansion, and it is rumored that there is even a great grandmaster in charge."

"Although you are very strong, you can't fight against many opponents. Once you go in, it will be difficult for you to get out."

Jin Chenglie cursed Qian Xinya and Wen Bo to death in his heart, but his face was full of sincerity, "That's not true! Today is my grandfather's birthday, that's true, but I absolutely have no intention of what they said!"

To demonstrate the truthfulness of his words, he made a swearing gesture, "I, Kim Sung-yeol, swear to God that as long as Mr. Chu comes back with me, I will definitely hand over the money with both hands."

"Mr. Chu—"

Qian Xinya wanted to persuade him again, but Chu Nan suddenly smiled and said, "A birthday celebration is great! I'm an outsider who came to the capital and happened to be here on Old Master Jin's birthday. How can I not go and offer my congratulations?"

Qian Xinya panicked, "Mr. Chu!"

Chu Nan waved his hand, indicating that she didn't need to say anything more.

He knew perfectly well what Kim Sung-yeol was planning.

He wasn't prepared to actually get Kim Sung-yeol to pay the 10 billion price tag.

The money is fake, but the pretext is real.

Kim Sung-yeol needed a pretext to lure him into a trap, while he needed a pretext to attack the Kim family.

Chu Nan had his own considerations.

Having just broken through to the Grandmaster level, with both lotus flowers blooming simultaneously, his strength surged.

But the price of this surge was that he had no concept of his own limits.

The Bear and Snake Duo is too weak, so weak that they're not even good enough to warm up.

He needs stronger opponents to test his limits.

It's just right for Mr. Jin's 90th birthday.

Furthermore, since Jin Chenglie dared to snatch Qian Xinya's elixir in the street today, there's no guarantee that Qian Xinya won't face obstacles in promoting Nantang Jade Skin Powder in the future.

To ensure smooth sailing in the future, one must establish a reputation and prestige.

This occasion, such as the old master of the Jin family's birthday celebration, couldn't be more appropriate.

Finally, he really wanted to see if there were any elixirs for repairing the soul among the birthday gifts at Grandpa Jin's birthday banquet.

After all, treating Qian Yunlong was just a side benefit of his trip to the capital; his main purpose was to find a spiritual medicine to repair Xu Ran's soul.

"Let's go."

Chu Nan grabbed Jin Chenglie by the back of his collar and lifted him up like a chick.

Kim Sung-yeol's feet left the ground, and he felt both fear and joy.

What he feared was Chu Nan's attitude of completely disregarding the Jin family, but what pleased him was that this fool actually dared to go back with him.

"Qian Xinya, please take Sister Tang and Sister Xue back to their hotel."

Jiang Yingxue stood still, her lips moving as if she wanted to say something.

Xia Wantang spoke first, "Okay, we'll go back to the hotel and wait for you, little cutie. Go early and come back early, don't keep us waiting too long."

He understood Chu Nan's temperament well and trusted Chu Nan's choices.

Rather than being a burden in the past, it's better to let Chu Nan go alone and completely unleash his potential.

Jiang Yingxue understood this reasoning, but she was still somewhat worried. "You... be careful."

Chu Nan smiled and said, "Don't worry."

Although he was unsure whether he could dominate at Mr. Jin's birthday banquet, he was confident that he could leave unscathed.

After saying that, he picked up Kim Sung-yeol, turned around, lightly touched the ground with his toes, and leaped into the air!
