Chapter 15 The Wedding Scene
Upon connecting the phone, Ye Chen respectfully inquired, "Boss Du, when can we expect the arrival of the divine doctor?"
Du Yuhai responded coldly, "Why the rush? The divine doctor is scheduled to arrive promptly at twelve o'clock."
"Don't forget to lay out the new red carpet once again, and at ten minutes to eleven, you must kneel to welcome the divine doctor's arrival."
"What?" Ye Chen was taken aback.
He had assumed he would kneel after the divine doctor arrived, not ten minutes early, which left him feeling embarrassed.
Du Yuhai bluntly asked, "What's with the surprise? Do you want to be healed or not?"
At this point, Ye Chen could no longer hide.
Through gritted teeth, he said, "Boss Du, I will kneel if necessary, but the divine doctor must be capable of curing my ailment."
"And my condition is not merely physical pain; I also suffer from erectile dysfunction. Inquire if the divine doctor can address this issue."
Du Yuhai found it somewhat amusing that this young man had revealed his impotence.
However, Lin Feng had assured him that regardless of the ailment, it could be treated.
Du Yuhai stated coldly, "If he cannot cure such a minor ailment, how can he be deemed a divine doctor?"
Upon hearing Du Yuhai's confident assertion, Ye Chen clenched his teeth, "Fine, I will kneel at the door ten minutes to eleven sharp."
Du Yuhai sneered, "I trust you will uphold your promise. I will arrive early. If you attempt any deception, not only will the divine doctor not appear, but I will not forgive you."
Without waiting for Ye Chen's response, Du Yuhai ended the call.
Ye Chen experienced a mix of emotions.
He felt pleased that the divine doctor was on the way to potentially cure his illness.
Yet, he was also frustrated by the doctor's eccentric demands, rejecting payment and insisting on a kneeling greeting, which wounded his pride.
With a heavy heart, he suddenly thought of Lin Feng.
He promptly instructed the attendant beside him, "Xia Xu, verify if that scoundrel Lin Feng has arrived."
Xia Xu hurried off to check, returning to report, "Young Master Ye, that scoundrel has not yet arrived!"
Ye Chen scowled and declared vehemently, "If that scoundrel dares to stand me up, he and his mother will face dire consequences!"
At eleven forty, Ye Chen had Xia Xu lay out a new red carpet over the existing one at the hotel entrance.
This action drew the attention of the guests.
Wang Guihua appeared puzzled, "Son-in-law, the guests have arrived, why lay down another carpet over the old one?"
Ye Chen responded irritably, "A divine doctor is on the way."
Wang Guihua's interest was piqued, "A divine doctor? What kind of divine doctor?"
Just then, Du Yuhai arrived with his entourage.
Ye Chen rushed to greet him, eager like a puppy, "Mr. Du, the new red carpet has been laid out."
Du Yuhai coldly remarked, "Then why haven't you knelt to greet me?"
Although it was only 11:45, five minutes before the agreed time to kneel, Ye Chen dared not defy Du Yuhai's command.
With head bowed, he made his way to the hotel entrance and knelt down firmly.
This act surprised onlookers, prompting whispers among the crowd.
"Why is Ye Shao kneeling here?"
"What spectacle is he putting on?"
To alleviate the awkwardness, Ye Chen addressed the guests loudly, "Do not be alarmed, there is a reason behind my actions."
"I don't mind if you laugh, but a few days ago, I was struck by a strange illness, experiencing severe pain in my lower abdomen from time to time."
"I visited all the hospitals in Piao City, but none of them could identify the issue."
Thanks to Mr. Du's recommendation, I was able to meet a miraculous doctor who could instantly cure my illness at the wedding."
"So, out of respect for the miraculous doctor, I knelt here to greet him."
Upon hearing this, everyone became even more intrigued.
"Ye Shao, are you being truthful? Is there truly a miraculous doctor in existence?"
"Yeah, Ye Shao, don't be fooled!"
Some individuals who were aware of the situation remarked, "Oh, I remember now, I heard that Mr. Du was paralyzed on one side not too long ago."
"But look at him now, he can walk on his own. Could it be that he was healed by that miraculous doctor?"
Ye Chen nodded, "Yes, that's why I am kneeling here to welcome the miraculous doctor."
Upon hearing this, everyone's curiosity was piqued, and they all turned their attention to Du Yuhai.
Someone eagerly inquired, "Boss Du, what is the name of this miraculous doctor?"
Another person asked, "Boss Du, is what they are saying true?"
Du Yuhai nodded, "Yes! I did indeed suffer from hemiplegia some time ago, and it was indeed the miraculous doctor who helped me recover. As for the name of the miraculous doctor, you will find out soon."
The crowd listened with anticipation.
"Who do you think this miraculous doctor could be?"
"Oh, it must be Tang Feichi, the top healer in Jiangbei. They say there's no ailment he can't cure!"
As soon as this individual finished speaking, Ye Chen disdainfully exclaimed, "Rubbish! I have consulted him before, that old man Tang Fengchi searched for a long time and couldn't diagnose anything."
The crowd's curiosity grew even more.
"Then who could it be? I have never heard of anyone with superior medical skills to Old Tang's!"
"I don't know, didn't Boss Du mention that we will find out soon? But this miraculous doctor is quite peculiar, while others charge for their services, he requires patients to kneel in greeting."
"Yes, Ye Chen is the young master of the Ye family, making him kneel at the hotel entrance is truly inappropriate. Moreover, he is the groom today!"
Wang Guihua herself did not want Ye Chen to kneel there, feeling particularly embarrassed. Hearing someone mention this now made her even more uncomfortable.
She shouted hoarsely, "Son-in-law, what are you doing! You are the esteemed young master of the Ye family, how can you kneel to greet a doctor!"
"Even if he is a miraculous doctor, he is still just a doctor, not a deity! At most, give him more money. Stand up, stand up!"
As he spoke, he reached out to help Ye Chen up.
Du Yuhai was contemplating how to make Wang Guihua kneel as well.
Seeing this scenario, he immediately commanded, "Ye Chen, this old woman is too troublesome, make her kneel alongside you."
"What?" Wang Guihua was shocked and angry, but the other party was the top boss of Piao City, so if he instructed her to kneel, she truly did not dare to refuse.
However, today was her daughter's special day, as a mother-in-law, kneeling with her son-in-law, what would that look like?
She couldn't help but seek help from Ye Chen.
Ye Chen found it amusing, it was indeed embarrassing to kneel there alone, it would be better to have someone join him.
With a serious expression, he said, "Why are you hesitating, if I tell you to kneel, you kneel. I warn you, if you dare to disrespect the miraculous doctor, you will regret it!"
Seeing Ye Chen's stern look, Wang Guihua was frightened and could only kneel down reluctantly.
But in her mind, she cursed Du Yuhai and the mysterious miraculous doctor.
Witnessing the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law kneeling together, the spectators felt a mix of amusement and absurdity.
Some discreetly took out their phones to snap pictures. Some couldn't help but chuckle silently.
Ye Chen had never felt so embarrassed before, but the situation was out of his control. He blushed with shame, looking like a culprit, keeping his head down and avoiding eye contact with the crowd.
For what seemed like an eternity, but was only a few minutes, they finally made it through.
And then, at that moment, a black Audi slowly pulled up.
Du Yuhai excitedly raised his voice and shouted loudly, "The doctor has arrived!"
Everyone immediately turned their attention to the car.
Ye Chen and Wang Guihua also looked up in surprise. They both wanted to see who this mysterious doctor was!
The car came to a stop, and the Du family's steward, Zhongbo, stepped out of the vehicle and hurried towards the back door.
Simultaneously, a man wearing sunglasses emerged from the passenger seat, holding a black umbrella and propping it up against the back door that Zhongbo had opened.
Amidst all the attention, a worn-out sneaker touched the ground.
Then, an unassuming man stepped out.
Ye Chen and Wang Guihua both exclaimed in surprise, "Lin Feng? Is that really you?"
