The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine

Chapter 489: Chapter 489: The Girl Who Was Persuaded to Leave!

Upon noticing Huang Xiaolong approaching the Bentley, the old martial arts Grandmaster bodyguard instantly exuded a dangerous aura, fixating his eyes on Huang Xiaolong as sharply as an eagle. “Young man, don’t make a move.”

“Heh~” Huang Xiaolong smiled lightly.

The Grandmaster bodyguard, seemingly sizing up Huang Xiaolong as a frail and naive young man without any martial skills, thus posing no potential trouble, relaxed slightly. He gave Huang Xiaolong a look of disdain and said, “Young man, you think you can buy some pastries? All 200 of today’s pastries have already been sold out.”

The bodyguard thought to himself, ‘Who does this kid think he is? Even I, with all my efforts and every trick in the book, couldn’t manage to purchase even one pastry. And this kid thinks he can easily buy pastries from that stubborn old man?’

The crowd outside, who initially lined up and now scattered about, stopped in their tracks upon hearing Huang Xiaolong’s words and burst out laughing—

“Hahaha, you think you can still buy pastries at this hour? Are you dreaming?”

“This kid must be new here. He has no idea about the rules of this place.”

“I heard this pastry shop has quite the backstory. Three months ago, an extremely arrogant rich kid offered 500,000 and asked the owner to make an extra 100 pastries. He was flatly rejected and in his rage, had thrashed the store. The next day, he found himself in prison.”

…

People were relentlessly mocking Huang Xiaolong.

All these remarks just made Huang Xiaolong chuckle, as he casually walked towards the shop.

“Haha, he’s really going in? Everyone watch, he’s about to get rejected!”

The onlookers were already taking delight in his expected misfortune.

Huang Xiaolong entered the shop.

An old man sat on the Taishi Chair, sipping tea from a lidded bowl. He was probably in his seventies, with wrinkles covering his face. He didn’t even glance at Huang Xiaolong.

All the tools for making pastries had been put away.

“Err… I want 10 pastries,” laughed Huang Xiaolong.

“Get lost!” The old man didn’t even look at Huang Xiaolong.

“Hehe~~” Huang Xiaolong shook his head.

The crowd outside erupted into laughter—

“Hahaha~~He got rejected! Everyone, look, he got rejected!”

At that moment, Huang Xiaolong moved towards a table in the shop, picked up a ballpoint pen and a notebook, flipped to a blank page, and swiftly wrote down a few lines.

He tore the paper with the written notes and handed it to the old man, saying, “I want 10 pastries.”

“Get out of here now! If you don’t leave, you’re on your own.” The old man glared at Huang Xiaolong, fuming with anger.

The laughter outside got even louder and more intense. The mockery and insults were at their peak.

Just then!

The eyes of the old man, who was about to get up and drive Huang Xiaolong away, suddenly froze!

His gaze was fixed on the piece of paper with words penned by Huang Xiaolong!

Shocked!

The old man’s otherwise expressionless face showed signs of shock! His eyes almost popped out of their sockets, his breathing became rapid, and his body trembled. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

“Your family recipe is missing three ingredients. You might know the names of these ingredients, but you don’t know the right amount to use. Whether it’s cooking or baking pastries, it’s similar to traditional Chinese medicine; it’s all about proportions. Just knowing the ingredients without knowing the proportions is useless. Now I’ve completed your recipe.” Huang Xiaolong smiled. “Now, I want 10 pastries. And from now on, whenever I want to eat your pastries, you’ll make them for me.”

The old man made a weird choked sound, and his face turned red.

“Not willing? Alright then.” Huang Xiaolong was about to crumple the paper.

“No! No! I…I…I’ll make them! I’ll start making them right away!” The old man jumped up from the Taishi Chair and started preparing the pastries in a hurry.

In an instant, the crowd outside the shop fell silent!

Everyone was staring at Huang Xiaolong with stunned eyes.

The onlookers saw Huang Xiaolong, seemingly unbothered, sit on the Taishi Chair and cross his legs.

Near the Bentley, the martial arts Grandmaster bodyguard looked perplexed. “No way! This… this lad… he…”

After a pause, the Grandmaster bodyguard leaned towards the back window of the car and said, “Miss… It seems like we might be able to eat pastries today. I have no clue what trick the lad pulled, but he’s somehow tamed the old man who is resistive towards the new methods.”

Ten minutes later, Huang Xiaolong walked out of the shop, munching on a fragrant pastry.

“Here~~ There are 9 pancakes left, take them.” Huang Xiaolong casually tossed a bag of pancakes to the martial arts Grandmaster bodyguard.

The bodyguard carefully took the bag, mumbling, “Young man… this… this is… thank… thank you… But, you wanting to see our Miss, I’m afraid, is a bit presumptuous.”

“Hahahaha~~ Forget it, no need to see her, I’ve already seen her.” Huang Xiaolong laughed casually, then turned around and left.

When Huang Xiaolong had gone a distance, the rear window of the Bentley rolled down, revealing a face of a goddess with superior beauty, curiously watching Huang Xiaolong’s retreating figure.

“Miss, this… this boy is… a bit strange.” The Grandmaster bodyguard, somewhat speechless, offered a restrained smile.

…

Paradise Mansion!

The largest and most upscale clubhouse in Binhai!

This is an 18-story building, the exterior is decorated with exquisite marble bas-reliefs, and on both sides of the main entrance there are giant Nordic-style statues.

In the upper social circles of Binhai, there is such a saying – “Only the things you can’t think of, not the things Paradise Mansion can’t do.”

Another phrase often said is – “Want to know what it feels like to be an emperor? Then, go to Paradise Mansion!”

At this moment, a Bentley slowly drove into the side entrance of the garage of the Paradise Mansion.

A large group of formidable looking men in black suits bowed respectfully as they saw the Bentley, all shouting, “Miss!”

…

Paradise Mansion, an office.

The luxury of this office is comparable to the presidential suite of a top-tier five-star hotel.

A slightly fat middle-aged man was sitting behind the desk, dealing with some files.

Knock, knock~~

There was a knock at the door.

“Come in.” The middle-aged man looked up, speaking politely.

If Huang Xiaolong could hear his voice, he would undoubtedly recognize that this middle-aged man is “Minghui”, the one who had called him earlier.

A young man with a lofty look in his eyes entered the room, “Brother Hui, the Miss is here. Uh…it seems that Huang Xiaolong is unappreciative and refuses to join us, he even wants to challenge us at the gambling table. While the Miss is here, why not let her personally teach him a lesson.”

“No need. We do not need to inform the Miss about this matter for the time being.” Minghui shook his head. The Miss had been upset recently, there was no need for her to worry about such trivial matters. Don’t worry, I have already transferred some gambling experts from other venues. We can deal with this trouble silently.”

As he spoke, Minghui adjusted his glasses. “Hehe~~ The young man, Huang Xiaolong, has a very good aptitude and excellent talents. But he is like a wild horse, hard to tame… However, I happen to be an excellent horse tamer. I believe, he will join our company.”

…

Night.

Binhai Hengyuan Private High School.

Huang Xiaolong strolled in.

Above the school, a sandstorm-like Yin Qi was swirling!

The density of the Yin Qi here was definitely more terrifying than that of the Binhai University campus!

Within the fluctuating Yin Qi, it seemed like grinning ghost faces were wandering, emitting the eerie sound of ghostly wails and wolf howls!

At the school gate, a Volkswagen Passat was parked

A middle-aged couple was waiting for someone.

Huang Xiaolong walked over, smiling faintly. “Are you waiting for someone?”

“Uh… Yes, we are waiting for our daughter. She was… Oh right, who are you? Why are you asking this?” The middle-aged man looked at Huang Xiaolong, frowning.

“Your daughter, named ‘Tian Fang’, was advised to leave this private school today, you came to pick her up, right?” Huang Xiaolong asked.

“How did you know?” The middle-aged man asked in astonishment.

At this moment, the middle-aged woman loudly said. “Alright, stop talking, our daughter is coming out!”
