?72: Chapter 72 Kneel Down to Mr.

    Bai 72: Chapter 72 Kneel Down to Mr.

    Bai “What?

    I hit him, and you have a problem with that?” Bai Xiaofan glanced dismissively at the other party and asked with disdain after hearing Elder Su’s words.

    That’s quite a question you’re asking.

    After hitting someone’s son, you still ask if they have an objection?

    It had been many years since anyone had dared to speak to Su Zhenye in that tone.

    “Xiaofan...” Su Shiqi quickly pulled Bai Xiaofan aside and then turned to hurriedly explain to Su Zhenye.

    “But even so, you shouldn’t have resorted to hitting Dali!” Su Zhenye’s heart still held a bias for his son, and despite hearing Su Shiqi’s explanation, he still intended to persuade.

    “Since I’m not welcome here, I might as well leave.

    I came here solely for Sister Shiqi, saving your life as a gift to her!”

    Bai Xiaofan laughed disdainfully.

    As his words ended, he turned around, ready to leave.

    “Mr.

    Bai, Mr.

    Bai, I wish to become your disciple!”

    Professor Liang, seeing Bai Xiaofan about to leave, hurriedly ran over and knelt in front of him amid everyone’s gaze, looking extremely earnest.

    Everyone was shocked.

    Professor Liang held a very esteemed status; not just in Nanjiang City, but even in Jiang Province, numerous major families treated him with great respect, inviting him as an honored guest—yet now, he was kneeling to Bai Xiaofan and even asking to become his disciple!

    This...

    this was truly unbelievable!

    “Professor Liang, have you made a mistake?

    Why are you kneeling to this poor guy and even wanting to take him as your master?

    Him curing my father was just good luck!”

    Su Qiuyue, who sided with Su Dali, thus stood up and pointed at Bai Xiaofan as she questioned Professor Liang.

    “Shut up, if you dare speak to Mr.

    Bai like that again, even if you are Elder Su’s daughter, I certainly won’t let you off!” Professor Liang suddenly stood up and glared fiercely at Su Qiuyue!

    Seeing the usually gentle Professor Liang now thundering with rage, all the Sus were stunned.

    They had thought his earlier scolding of Su Dali was out of concern for Elder Su’s safety.

    Now, they realized it was because Dali had spoken rudely to Bai Xiaofan.

    “Mr.

    Bai, don’t trouble yourself with these ignorant people.

    I wish to become your disciple; please teach me the ‘Seven Needles of the Sage’!” Professor Liang, ignoring everyone’s astonishment, once again respectfully addressed Bai Xiaofan, his attitude as earnest as a devoted student seeking knowledge.

    “Oh?

    You actually know about the ‘Seven Needles of the Sage’?” Bai Xiaofan looked at Professor Liang curiously, surprised that he even knew the name of the technique.

    He had underestimated the man.

    “I have occasionally seen it mentioned in an ancient text, but I don’t know much!” With shrewdness betraying his age, Professor Liang did not wait for Bai Xiaofan’s agreement to take him as a student, but referred to himself as one already.

    “Ha, take you as my disciple?

    You do not qualify; your talent is too poor!”

    Just when everyone thought Bai Xiaofan would be delighted to accept Professor Liang as a disciple, Bai Xiaofan merely smirked and decisively refused!

    I...

    I cut grass!

    Professor Liang, the leading professor of the Third Hospital, whom all major families vied to favor, was actually deemed insufficiently talented.

    Could this be a joke?

    “I know I am slow-witted, I only hope to have the opportunity to learn in front of you, even if just as an assistant!” Professor Liang didn’t dare to retort; his talent was indeed too inferior in front of Bai Xiaofan!

    “First kneel down and fulfill the grand promises you made just now!” Bai Xiaofan said arrogantly.

    Upon hearing Bai Xiaofan’s words, Professor Liang did not hesitate for a moment, and even with immense excitement, knelt before Bai Xiaofan once more.

    At this moment, the Su family was completely dumbstruck, like a group of ducks scared silly by a thunderstorm.

    When had they ever imagined witnessing such a shocking scene?

    Su Zhenye had been watching everything unfold, and saw how Professor Liang treated Bai Xiaofan.

    Suddenly, he made a decision in his heart!

    Ignoring the silver needles still inserted in his body, Su Zhenye got off the bed, walked up to Su Dali, and slapped him hard across the face!

    Smack!

    The slap was loud, no less forceful than the one Bai Xiaofan had delivered to Su Dali.

    “Father, you...

    why are you hitting me?” Su Dali asked in confusion, not understanding why Su Zhenye would suddenly slap him.

    “I’m hitting you, the unfilial son!

    Mr.

    Bai saved my life, and not only did you not feel grateful, you dared to speak rudely to Mr.

    Bai.

    Kneel down and apologize immediately, or I will disown you from our family!” Su Zhenye said coldly, his command undeniable.

    Everyone was puzzled by Su Zhenye’s actions.

    Su Qiuyue even stepped forward to speak for Su Dali, “Father, my second brother did nothing wrong.

    Why should he apologize to this pauper?”

    Smack!

    Su Zhenye was furious.

    Damn, he was trying hard to make a good impression on Bai Xiaofan, and here she was, messing things up.

    She deserved to be sent back by her in-laws.

    He slapped Su Qiuyue across the face!

    “You kneel down too and seek Mr.

    Bai’s forgiveness, or you can leave the Su family as well!”

    Su Zhenye was truly angry now.

    Neither Su Dali nor Su Qiuyue could possibly afford to leave the Su family; otherwise, they would be nothing.

    Reluctantly, the two knelt before Bai Xiaofan.

    “Mr.

    Bai, we are sorry!”

    Seeing Su Zhenye’s actions, a sly smile tugged at Bai Xiaofan’s mouth.

    This old man really was shrewd, seeing how respectfully Professor Liang was treating him and decisively using his son and daughter to win him over.

    Quite impressive!

    “Sister Shiqi, your grandfather’s illness has not been completely cured yet.

    The toxins in his body must have been accumulating for a long time.

    I need to formulate a medicine to completely clear them, but these medicinal herbs...”

    Without paying any attention to Su Dali and Su Qiuyue kneeling before him, Bai Xiaofan turned and smiled at Su Shiqi, causing resentment to flash in the eyes of the two kneeling figures, who felt humiliated beyond previous experience.

    Meanwhile, Su Dali and Su Qiuyue were not the only ones who bore hatred; Su Zhenye and Su Shiqi, as well as Professor Liang, were also targets.

    “Mr.

    Bai, rest assured.

    Just let Shiqi know what herbs you need, and I will make sure to procure everything as quickly as possible,” Su Zhenye said hastily, earnestly assuring Bai Xiaofan.

    “Alright then, I’ll send the information about the herbs to Sister Shiqi via WeChat.

    I have to leave now, I’ve got other things to handle!” Bai Xiaofan laughed, turned around, and left, not once looking at Su Dali and Su Qiuyue still kneeling on the ground!

    Professor Liang naturally left with Bai Xiaofan.

    “Grandfather, I’ll go see Xiaofan off!” Su Shiqi told Su Zhenye and then chased after Bai Xiaofan.

    It wasn’t until long after Bai Xiaofan and the others had left that Su Zhenye finally addressed the two still kneeling.

    “Remember, from now on, do not provoke Mr.

    Bai, or don’t blame me for being heartless!”

    “Understood!” The two answered reluctantly.

    After everyone had left, Su Zhenye’s old eyes narrowed slightly, his mind pondering who had poisoned him.

    According to what Bai Xiaofan said, this toxin had been accumulating for a long time, which surely meant someone in the family was responsible!

    Who could be plotting against his life?

    ...
