Starting as a War God: Global Goddesses Blocking my Door

Chapter 288 Su Jianguo's Disdain



"Right, it's obvious, Chen Longpeng's challenge to you this time is aiming to eradicate the group led by you once and for all!" Xu Ruoxuan analyzed.

Ye Fan nodded, "I understand! Thank you, Miss Xu, I've got it!"

"Mr. Ye, aren't you afraid? Chen Longpeng is a Martial Arts King, a presence even more terrifying than a Martial Arts Grandmaster!" Xu Ruoxuan emphasized.

She was very aware of what it meant to be a Martial Arts King; looking across the vast East Sea, there was only one publicly known Martial Arts King – Chen Longpeng.

Even her Xu Family, a Super Family Clan, has not produced a Martial Arts King, which shows how rare such a figure is.

Ye Fan laughed coldly, "What about a Martial Arts King? If Chen Longpeng dares to come at me, I'll still explode his head!"

"Are you sure, Mr. Ye?" Xu Ruoxuan was astonished.

She had learned of Ye Fan's capabilities, but his disregard for a Martial Arts King truly surprised Xu Ruoxuan.

Ye Fan said indifferently, "Miss Xu, you'll know when Chen Longpeng arrives!"

"It seems Mr. Ye is very confident; I'm genuinely looking forward to it!" Xu Ruoxuan smiled meaningfully.

Xu Ruoxuan had previously sensed that Ye Fan was not as simple as he appeared on the surface; his response to Chen Longpeng's challenge was not unexpected to her.

Next, she was eager to see just how many tricks this mysterious man, Ye Fan, had up his sleeve.

Upon learning that the number one expert of East Sea, Chen Longpeng, was soon to make his move, Ye Fan's mood grew heavier.

It wasn't that he feared Chen Longpeng, but Ye Fan worried the East Sea Chen Family would resort to underhanded tactics. If the Chen Family hurt his family, he, on his own, would indeed struggle to guard against every possibility.

Ye Fan's eyes turned icy as he muttered to himself, "I hope you don't seek your demise. If I find out the Chen Family has laid a hand on my people, be careful, for I will uproot your entire East Sea Chen Family!"

Having spoken, Ye Fan did not waste more time; he returned to the summit venue.

To his surprise, he found the number one divine doctor of the Central Plains, Tang Renjie, conversing with Su Ruoxue and a middle-aged man.

"Ruoxue!" Ye Fan approached them.

Seeing Ye Fan return, Su Ruoxue quickly introduced, "Ye Fan, let me introduce you. This is Chen Ping, Divine Doctor Tang's closed-door disciple. Chen Ping is currently the President of The First People's Hospital and also serves as the Vice-President of the Central Plains Medical Association; he is quite accomplished."

"Miss Su flatters me!" said the middle-aged Chen Ping modestly.

He looked at Ye Fan with respect, "I've been studying in the capital recently, and I've long heard about Mr. Ye's superb medical skills, so much so that my teacher could hardly resist the urge to take Mr. Ye as a master!"

"It's Elder Tang who thinks too highly of me!" Ye Fan smiled.

Tang Renjie quickly waved his hand, "Holy Hand Ye, you're too modest. You are the pinnacle of the medical world's pyramid, a role model for all of us practitioners!"

"Old Tang, don't speak like that!" Ye Fan couldn't stand such lavish praise.

After exchanging pleasantries with Tang Renjie and Chen Ping for a while, Ye Fan discussed with Su Ruoxue their plans to leave the summit venue.

Originally, he had wanted to accompany Su Ruoxue to the Central Plains Summit so she could take the opportunity to build some connections but hadn't expected the debacle involving Huang Zicheng and Qin Yao to occur.

At this moment, not only was Ye Fan no longer in the mood to stay, but Su Ruoxue was also feeling fed up.

Seeing Ye Fan preparing to leave, Chen Ping hurriedly handed him a business card, "Mr. Ye, this is my card. If you need anything in the Central Plains, just let me know!"

"Thank you, President Chen!" Ye Fan accepted the card.

Ye Fan could tell that Tang Renjie was a good person, and Chen Ping seemed humble, skilled in medical arts, and likely to succeed Tang Renjie as the leading divine doctor of the Central Plains.

Having taken Chen Ping's card, Ye Fan said to Su Ruoxue, "Ruoxue, let's go home!"

"Mhm!" Su Ruoxue nodded gracefully.

It was nearing nine o'clock in the evening when they left the Imperial Grand Hotel, and they drove back to Century Sky City. They had just returned to the Century Sky City Villa Complex when they heard the angry voice of Ye Fan's mother-in-law, Gao Yaqin, coming from inside the villa.

"Qin Dachuan is such an asshole. Based on my qualifications, I should have been promoted to deputy director of the hospital a long time ago. It's been four terms now, and every time Qin Dachuan has used various excuses to brush me off. It really infuriates me!"

Right after that, the young girl Ye Ling'er tried to soothe, "Grandma, have a glass of water, calm down first, please!"

"What's going on? Mom seems really angry!" Ye Fan said, astonished.

"I'm not sure either, let's go in and ask," Su Ruoxue suggested.

Usually, Gao Yaqin and Su Jianguo did not live with them, but tonight, before she left with Ye Fan to attend the Central Plains Summit, she had specifically informed the two elders to look after Ye Ling'er in the evening.

Unexpectedly, just as the two of them arrived home, they heard Gao Yaqin's angry voice.

As soon as Ye Fan and Su Ruoxue got out of the car, they quickly entered the hall.

Upon entering the hall, they saw Gao Yaqin with an angry face, and Su Ruoxue asked in surprise, "Mom, what happened? Why are you so outraged?"

"Don't get me started, Ruoxue! That asshole Qin Dachuan has blocked me again!" Gao Yaqin was beyond angry.

Su Ruoxue asked in surprise, "Is it about the promotion again?"

"Yes, it's already the fourth term!" Gao Yaqin said coldly.

"That shouldn't be the case?"

Even Ye Fan was shocked to hear what Gao Yaqin said.

He knew that his mother-in-law Gao Yaqin had a PhD and graduated from the best medical university in the country, and was assigned directly to The First People's Hospital of Central Plains, which is the best there.

Gao Yaqin had been working in The First People's Hospital for over twenty years.

Currently, not only does Gao Yaqin serve as the chief nurse of the hospital, but she also holds the position of department director, surely an old hand, with very few in the large First People's Hospital able to compare with Gao Yaqin in terms of seniority.

Moreover, every year there are positions that become vacant in the hospital, and Gao Yaqin had been nominated for the position of deputy director three consecutive times, only to be rejected each time by a deputy director named Qin Dachuan.

As the saying goes, "Three strikes and you're out." Given Gao Yaqin's qualifications, it's no wonder she's so angry that her fourth promotion was also rejected. Enjoy more content from empire

Su Jianguo sat aside and sighed, "Ya Qin, in my opinion, you just haven't given the right gift. You know how important personal connections are in our country. If all else fails, let's just give President Qin a gift!"

"Gifts? Hmph! I won't do it; let whoever wants to give a gift, give it!" Gao Yaqin said indignantly.

She was an upright person, thoroughly despising bribery and nepotism, believing that she shouldn't have to resort to such means when her qualifications alone should suffice for promotion to deputy director.

Su Jianguo said irritably, "Ya Qin, you are too stubborn. This will end up costing you."

"Su Jianguo, no need to persuade me to give gifts. First thing tomorrow morning, I'm going to confront Qin Dachuan and get a clear answer!" Gao Yaqin said puffing with anger.

Su Jianguo lamented, "It's no use going there tomorrow morning; if they don't want to promote you, they'll just make up any excuse. Just consider giving a gift!"

Having worked in the environmental protection department for many years and holding a position of considerable authority, Su Jianguo was well aware of the art of giving gifts.

Actually, like Gao Yaqin, he was upright and did not curry favor, but luckily his old boss had appreciated him and promoted him to where he was today.

Now that his old benefactor had retired, Su Jianguo knew well that his chances of further promotion were gone, and he would spend the rest of his career at his current position.

"I won't give in!" Gao Yaqin said coldly.

Seeing this, Ye Fan spoke up, "Dad, there's no need to push Mom to give gifts. It's just about being promoted to deputy director. If I get involved, it'll be easily settled!"

He had just met Chen Ping, the president of the Central Plains No.1 People's Hospital, at the business summit. Coincidentally, Chen Ping was a proud disciple of Divine Doctor Tang. With this connection, a simple word from him would effortlessly sort it out.

"You would resolve it effortlessly?"

Su Jianguo became furious upon hearing Ye Fan's words, "Ye Fan, I admit, you've made some accomplishments, but what of that? Do you understand how important connections are within the system? Do you realize how difficult it is to get promoted within the system? You think it's as easy as playing house?"

"Shut your mouth right now. Nonsensical babbling in the middle of the night, aren't you afraid of making others laugh their heads off?"
