Lin Bingrui and I have a decent relationship, so Jiang Chen wanted to help him get clarity on the situation. If Lin Bingrui considered us enemies, he stood no chance against the combined martial might of Xu Boren and Fang Zhenggang. It might be that he would have to step in once again.

Upon hearing Jiang Chen's question, the people from the Fang Family were taken aback for a moment.

Fang Wenzheng understood what Jiang Chen was getting at and, with a light chuckle, shook his head:

"Mr. Jiang, I'm aware you're on good terms with Lin Bingrui. The incident yesterday was simply an expression of my discontent for being driven out years ago, leading to that competition on the fighting stage.

I am old now, and Zheng Gang and the others do not aspire to such things. I won't involve them in underworld conflicts any longer. Zheng Gang now has a respectable job, and I won't vie for Dingjing's influence anymore.

However, could you please relay a message to Lin Bingrui for me? I've returned this time only to retire peacefully in my hometown. I hope he doesn't go too far!"

Jiang Chen smiled and nodded, "That's easy to handle. I'll make sure to convey the message. Moreover, with Elder Xu by your side, President Lin can't do anything to you. I also believe you simply wanted to let off some steam and have no intention of fighting for power. Otherwise, the one who would have fought yesterday wouldn't have been Brother Zhao but Elder Xu!"

Xu Boren gave a wry smile and said, "It's good I didn't go yesterday. Yu Jie told me Mr. Jiang was there too. If I had gone, I would've completely lost face!"

"Haha!"

"Haha..."

Jiang Chen and others couldn't help laughing aloud.

As they joked and laughed, their relationships subtly grew closer, and Wu Mingzhong took the opportunity to ask Jiang Chen several questions about medicine. After Jiang Chen've answered, they were immediately enlightened, and their admiration for Jiang Chen's medical skills grew even more!

After chatting for a while and being seen off by the Fang Family, Jiang Chen left the Weicheng Martial Arts School.

Meanwhile, as Jiang Chen treated Elder Fang, a conspiracy was unfolding against him over at Jincheng.

The dismissal of the president of the Martial Alliance's Jincheng branch sent shockwaves through the entire Martial Alliance. Qiu Boyuan personally took charge of the matter at the Martial Alliance headquarters, subtly hinting at his imminent breakthrough to the Innate realm, using it to strengthen his authority. After weighing the pros and cons, the headquarters decided to put the issue on hold for the time being.

Still, the whole affair reached the ears of some interested parties, including news of Zhang Feng's death.

"Damn it!" In the Zhang family residence in Jincheng, a young man cursed vehemently, "Jiang Chen, Jiang Chen, where did this bastard pop up from? He dared to kill my brother; I will make him pay dearly!"

Glancing over the information in his hand, a sinister light flashed in the young man's eyes. He pulled out his phone and made a call, "Hello, Ye Jianying."

"Young Master Kun, what brings you to call me? I'm flattered indeed!" A surprised voice came through the receiver.

"I have something to discuss with you!" Zhang Kun said, with a devious gleam in his eyes.

"Please tell me, Young Master Kun. As long as it's within my power, I won't hesitate!"

Zhang Kun's gaze narrowed, and he let out a vicious chuckle, "I hear you've got a big star in Dingjing named Yè Yùwǎn? I fancy her. Could you help me propose to her through the Ye Family? You go ahead and break the news to them, and I'll follow. Arrange a meeting with Yè Yùwǎn for me, and I'll give you ten million as an engagement gift. If the deal goes through, I can offer the Ye Family a dowry of ten billion, and you'll also get ten million for your service. How about that, can you do it?"

Ye Jianying on the phone was ecstatic, "Of course, I can! It's Yè Yùwǎn's fortune to be fancied by you, Young Master Kun. I'll call our main family in Dingjing right away."

After hanging up, Zhang Kun sneered coldly, "Jiang Chen, you care about Yè Yùwǎn, don't you? I'll use her to lure you out. I swear I'll kill you to avenge my brother!"

The Ye Family of Dingjing.

Ye Jianzhong, having received a call from his cousin Ye Jianying who was in Jincheng, was overjoyed.

This was the Zhang Family from Jincheng, and although they were not the top family in Jincheng, they were a first-class family, far stronger than the Ye Family. If they could establish a relationship with the Zhang Family, the Ye Family could also rise rapidly, perhaps even becoming the fifth of the Five Great Families in Dingjing!

After considering it, Ye Jianzhong called Ye Yuwan and told her she must personally receive them.

Ye Yuwan was working in her office at Yi Chen when she received the call from Ye Jianzhong. Knowing the purpose, she felt a wave of annoyance and, after thinking it over, called Jiang Chen.

"Jiang Chen, my family is pressuring me into an arranged marriage again. This time it's a minor cousin from Jincheng who has set it up. They're arriving in Dingjing this afternoon, could you help me by picking them up? I really don't want to deal with them anymore!"

Jiang Chen's gaze turned cold; he nodded and said, "Alright, I'll go pick them up for you."

At that moment, Jiang Chen had just come out of the Wei Cheng Martial Arts School. After hanging up the phone and having dinner at home, he rushed to the train station.

Ye Jianying was only thirty this year, but he was of the same generation as Ye Jianzhong. Zhang Kun had asked him to assist with the marriage proposal, partly because of his generation; after all, proposals needed to be made by elders!

After speaking with Ye Jianzhong, Ye Jianying went to Dingjing with his mother. His mother had once been part of a matchmaker family in their village. For the reward of ten million, he had even called upon his elderly mother!

After the mother and son left the station, they looked around for the person who was supposed to pick them up. Then they caught sight of the Knight XV parked on the side of the road and their eyes lit up immediately.

"What kind of car is this? It's so nice! Riding in this car would be so impressive!" exclaimed Ye Jianying with envy.

Ye's mother glanced at the car, then at Jiang Chen who was standing next to it, and was slightly taken aback. She pointed at Jiang Chen and said, "Jianying, look, isn't that the Jiang Chen sent by Yu Wan to pick us up?"

Ye Jianying blinked, glanced at Jiang Chen, checked the photo sent by Ye Yuwan on his phone, and his face lit up with joy: "It really is him! Has our main family in Dingjing become so wealthy? A mere foster daughter can send such a luxury car to pick us up?"

"Who cares? Let's go, let's go, quick, get in the car. Let's also experience what it's like to ride in a luxury car!" Ye's mother pulled Ye Jianying, and they hurried towards Jiang Chen.

"Are you Jiang Chen?" Ye Jianying approached with a haughty air.

Jiang Chen looked over at Ye Jianying and his mother, nodding slightly: "You must be Yu Wan's relatives, right? Get in the car."

"Give me the car keys, I'll drive!" Ye Jianying eagerly stretched his hand towards Jiang Chen's nose.

Jiang Chen frowned slightly, brushed Ye Jianying's hand aside, and said indifferently, "No."

"No?! Who do you think you are? You're just a mere driver. You don't get to speak!" Ye's mother immediately scolded loudly, dissatisfied.

Jiang Chen gave Ye's mother a nonchalant look and got directly into the driver's seat.

"You..." Ye's mother wanted to say more, but Ye Jianying pulled her to the car while saying, "Let's go. We'll deal with him once we're at the main house!"

Ye's mother glared fiercely at Jiang Chen, who had already boarded the car, then turned and got into the vehicle.

The car left the station, heading towards the Ye Family home.
