Chapter 5: Seen a Ghost?

Translator: 549690339

The shop owner had previously looked down on Chen Feng, but after seeing Black Tiger, his entire demeanor changed instantly. Not only did he not charge a single penny, but he also personally packed up all the medicinal herbs that Chen Feng had selected and even stuffed a few extra ginseng roots into the bag.

"Mr. Chen, I was wrong today, these herbs are my way of apologizing... You're welcome to visit anytime in the future!" The shop owner said with utmost respect.

"Mm." Chen Feng nodded, took the herbs, and looked at Black Tiger with a hint of confusion. He thought to himself that after being beaten up by him last night, not only did this guy not seek revenge, but he had also made a timely appearance to help him out. Still, Chen Feng politely said, "Thank you, Lord Hu."

"Hahaha, Mr. Chen is too kind!" Black Tiger laughed heartily and then immediately pulled out his business card, "Mr. Chen, this is my card. If you need help in the future, whether it's buying herbs or anything else, you can contact me. If it's within my capabilities, I can sort it out for you."

As the underground boss of Jiangzhou, Black Tiger certainly had some skills. Despite being beaten up by Chen Feng, Chen Feng was a low-profile Divine Doctor who could easily cure Jiang Yingxue's incurable disease. So in Black Tiger's eyes, Chen Feng was already a valuable connection worth making.

After all, when one reaches a certain height with wealth and status, what they crave most is good health; life is short, and who doesn't want to live a few more years, enjoy a bit more fortune?

When faced with Black Tiger's initiative to network, Chen Feng didn't refuse. He nodded after taking the business card, greeted Black Tiger, and then took his leave.

Meanwhile.

Sitting alone on a park bench, Chen Ning waited obediently for Chen Feng to return.

But just then, a young couple approached from afar and it was none other than Chen Feng's ex-wife Wu Meng and her boyfriend Wang Shikai.

"Kai-ge, you made ten million yesterday, that much money, won't you share a little with me?" Wu Meng cooed as she hugged Wang Shikai's arm.

"Hahahaha." Wang Shikai laughed, his hand roving improperly over Wu Meng's body. Wu Meng did not resist; instead, she responded more proactively.

Once Wang Shikai was pleased, he laughed and said, "The money is in my card, I can give it to you anytime you want, but there's no need. You know, you've already divorced that loser Chen Feng. In a few days, let's head to the Civil Affairs Bureau and get our marriage license. Then, won't my money become your money?"

"Kai-ge, are you serious? Don't trick me," Wu Meng said, her face full of anticipation.

As the two walked and flirted, passing by the bench, Wu Meng suddenly spotted Chen Ning sitting there and shuddered, thinking she had seen a ghost!

Chen Ning looked at the pale-faced Wu Meng, not knowing about the divorce between Chen Feng and Wu Meng. Out of politeness, she still called out, "Sister-in-law."

"You, you're not a ghost? What are you doing here?" Wu Meng recovered and asked in astonishment, "Didn't they remove your kidneys? How can you still be alive?"

Chen Ning blinked and explained, "I didn't have the surgery. Right before it was about to start, my brother went to the hospital and took me away."

"What!"

Hearing this, Wang Shikai and Wu Meng's faces drastically changed in an instant.

"Damn it!" Wang Shikai cursed, then rushed towards Chen Ning and grabbed her hands before turning to Wu Meng, "What are you standing there for? Help me take this girl to the hospital, now! Lord Hu already gave me the million! If something goes wrong, we are both responsible!"

"Right! Right!" Wu Meng immediately nodded, then rushed over to help drag Chen Ning, "Don't move! Hurry back to the hospital, get on the operating table, and transplant your kidney to Miss Jiang from the Imperial Capital! Why did you run off? Do you want us to die?"

Chen Ning, already injured and weak, was no match for these two adults. She could only shout feebly, "My brother is coming back soon. If you bully me, my brother won't let you off..."

"Your brother? Your brother is nothing but a good-for-nothing!" Wang Shikai couldn't contain his fury and slapped Chen Ning's face hard, cursing, "Shut up for me! Go back to the hospital quietly!"

And so, Wang Shikai and Wu Meng, one grabbing Chen Ning's hands and the other her hair, forcibly dragged her along the ground toward the direction of the hospital.

"You're courting death!"

Chen Feng, who was just returning with some herbs, saw this scene and immediately felt a surge of rage as he charged over like lightning.

Upon seeing Chen Feng, Wu Meng cursed loudly, "Chen Feng! You useless wretch! You dare–"

Before she could finish,

'Slap!'

Chen Feng's hand flew up and struck Wu Meng's face, sending her flying several meters away, coughing up blood.

"You dare hit a woman, motherf*cker!" Wang Shikai exploded in anger. Since the Wang Family had made the Chen Family's home and lives miserable for the past ten years, Wang Shikai had always humiliated Chen Feng whenever he saw him on the street. Knowing he was no match, Chen Feng always swallowed his pride and endured.

But now, seeing Chen Feng standing up to him as if he was a changed man, Wang Shikai felt a wave of annoyance in his heart.

He vigorously ripped off his tie, then clenched his fists, assuming a professional fighting stance.

"Get lost!"

However, Chen Feng only needed a slap to knock Wang Shikai to the ground, his front teeth flying out on the spot.

"Sister, are you okay?" Chen Feng quickly helped Chen Ning up. Her hair was disheveled and there was a clear slap mark on her face. Despite having obviously suffered a great deal, she shook her head understandingly, choking up, "Brother, I'm fine. Don't be angry..."

"You two bastards!"

Chen Feng, unable to contain his rage, stepped fiercely onto Wang Shikai's chest, pinning him to the ground like a dead dog, unable to move.

"What... what do you want to do?" Wang Shikai's eyes widened with terror.

"I'll kill you!" Chen Feng roared.

But at that moment,

suddenly a siren wailed from afar, and quickly neared. Then, several uniformed police officers hurried over, the captain among them wielding a weapon sternly commanded, "Everyone, stop what you're doing!"

Upon seeing the police, Wang Shikai immediately acted as if he saw his savior, exclaiming repeatedly, "Officer! Save me, officer! This son of a bitch, he's trying to kill me in broad daylight!"
