151: Chapter 151: Cousin Wang Gang, Long Tianze from Dragon Gate in Su City 151: Chapter 151: Cousin Wang Gang, Long Tianze from Dragon Gate in Su City Xiao Jianming looked at the distant figure of Ning Fan, who seemed no different from an ordinary person, and muttered to himself, “Just how powerful is Ninth Master anyway?
Even the number one expert in Jianghu doesn’t dare claim he can defeat him.
If that’s really the case, why would he settle for a mundane life!”
The smile on Huo Qiuran’s face gradually became indifferent, but a hint of deep regret flashed through her eyes; she gently shook her head without replying to his question.
Watching Huo Qiuran turn around and leave, Xiao Jianming was slightly startled but still followed her.
It turned out she had noticed Ning Fan’s arrival when he came over…
…
After ending this brief interlude, Ning Fan, having finished his meal, sat in the courtyard to rest for a while and then went straight to his room to sleep.
Perhaps because he was in a good mood, Ning Fan slept very soundly; when he opened his eyes the next day, the sun was already shining brightly.
After buying some fruit on the road, Ning Fan went directly to the hospital.
After all, Captain Wang Gang had become a vegetable due to injuries sustained on behalf of Xu Corporation.
Visiting more often made Ning Fan’s guilty conscience feel slightly better.
Ning Fan had arrived quite early.
However, just as he entered the ward and approached Captain Wang Gang’s room, he discovered that Xu Ruolan and Xu Xiaoqing were already in the hospital.
But they weren’t the only people in the room.
Standing next to Xu Ruolan was a stranger Ning Fan didn’t recognize, who was chatting with Ruolan.
“Who is he?”
Somehow, Ning Fan felt a bit uncomfortable.
The presence of the unfamiliar man gave him an unsettling feeling.
To put it specifically, it was a chilling aura that made one shudder even in broad daylight.
“I don’t know him either, but it seems he is Wang Gang’s cousin.
He has specially come from out of town to visit Wang Gang.”
Xu Ruolan also showed some vigilance in her eyes as she spoke to Ning Fan.
For Ning Fan, of course, she had absolute trust.
“And this is?”
The stranger, seeing Ning Fan walk into the ward, was slightly taken aback and asked with a smile.
“Ning Fan.”
Ning Fan simply introduced himself.
Meanwhile, Xu Ruolan interjected, “Thanks to Ning Fan’s excellent medical skills, Captain Wang Gang didn’t die on the operating table, although he eventually became a vegetable…”
As she spoke, Xu Ruolan’s voice also grew somber.
“Oh, I see, then you are truly a lifesaver for our family’s Wang Gang.
Please accept my sincere gratitude!”
The stranger bowed earnestly to Ning Fan, whispering, “I am Long Tianze from the Dragon Gate Martial Arts School of Su City.
Upon hearing the news of Wang Gang’s accident,
I was frantically anxious.
I travelled overnight to the hospital, only to be greeted with such news.”
As he spoke, his voice was clearly choked with emotion.
He firmly grasped Ning Fan’s hand and said gravely, “Unfortunately, I, Long Tianze, am just an insignificant merchant in Su City, unable to seek justice for Wang Gang!”
After saying this, he also touched the corner of his eye, seemingly wiping away tears.
However, in Ning Fan’s eyes, his behavior clearly carried a hint of hypocrisy.
He couldn’t say whether this feeling was right or wrong, but from the first impression, Ning Fan instantly took a disliking to Long Tianze.
“Well, if there’s nothing important, you should stop disturbing Wang Gang’s rest,”
Ning Fan said coldly.
After hearing this, Long Tianze’s expression stiffened noticeably.
He obviously did not expect Ning Fan to be so disrespectful, and a fleeting cold glint flashed in his eyes, only to disappear quickly.
Long Tianze gave a slight smile and said, “I’ve just arrived, there’s no need to rush off.
I came all the way from Su City just to check on Wang Gang’s condition, but seeing him like this, I really can’t be at ease.”
Ning Fan frowned deeply, sensing a very familiar feeling from Long Tianze.
He carefully examined the other’s clothing, a very elegant Chinese-style Western suit, holding a Bible, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, and his demeanor exceptionally outstanding—could such a person really be an ordinary small businessman?
At least Ning Fan did not believe his words.
Xu Xiaoqing, listening to their conversation, felt somewhat unfair for Long Tianze, and subtly nudged Ning Fan, saying, “Big Brother Long is Captain Wang Gang’s cousin,
he specifically came over to see him.
Don’t forget, the reason Captain Wang Gang is now lying in the hospital as a vegetable is also for Xu Corporation.”
At this, Xu Xiaoqing paused slightly and continued, “He’s just arrived, and you’re rushing him away.
Even considering Captain Wang Gang’s medical condition, isn’t that a bit too inhumane?”
Ning Fan smiled faintly but did not reply.
It was Long Tianze, however, who waved his hand and repeatedly said, “It’s not a problem, it’s not a problem.
My cousin’s life was saved by God Doctor Ning.
‘Physician, guardian of life.’
I believe his words are for my cousin’s well-being, so let it be for today.
I’ll go back first and come again when I’m free.”
After bidding farewell softly, Long Tianze left the hospital room with a smile.
“I never expected Captain Wang Gang to have such a distant cousin—truly surprising.”
It was clear that Xu Ruolan, having held high positions for a long time, could also discern the striking demeanor of Long Tianze, which prompted her commendation.
“Captain Wang Gang’s cousin?
I’m not so sure about that.”
Ning Fan analyzed with a smile that was not quite a smile, “He claimed to be Wang Gang’s cousin the moment he came in.
Have you verified this claim?
What if he’s lying?”
“Ning Fan, that’s a bit too much,” Xu Xiaoqing retorted, “Captain Wang Gang was seriously injured for our sake.
Would he need to fake an identity to get close to Captain Wang Gang, and for what purpose?”
Ning Fan pondered for a moment, stroking his chin and said, “Although I can’t figure out Long Tianze’s motive at the moment, I am certain that he absolutely isn’t Captain Wang Gang’s cousin.
And his purpose for coming here isn’t merely to check on Wang Gang’s injuries either!”
“Silly fool, I think you’ve been suspicious for too long and see everyone as a bad guy.”
Xu Xiaoqing pouted, a flash of dissatisfaction in her eyes, clearly unconvinced by Ning Fan’s deduction.
Seeing that neither Xu Ruolan nor Xu Xiaoqing supported his viewpoint, Ning Fan did not insist.
He simply smiled, checked Captain Wang Gang’s pulse to confirm that his condition was stable, then left the room with the door closed behind him.
“I just can’t believe there’s nothing suspicious to uncover!”
Looking at the scenery outside the window, Ning Fan fell into contemplation, murmuring to himself.
In the distance was the sight of Long Tianze driving away.
