Chapter 15: Wu Chang woke up
Zheng Miao Miao heard Chu Nan, her slender eyebrows immediately rose, and she said in a delicate voice: "Dad, why is it this Chu Nan again? Is he deliberately coming back to oppose our Zheng family?"
Zheng Guangran's face was gloomy, his voice cold and stern: "Originally, I didn't want to provoke that bastard, nor did I want to cause unnecessary trouble. Now, he has slapped us in the face. Even Hua Linglong, that woman, is kicking us while we're down, saying that our Zheng family is nothing, Zheng Haolong, you good-for-nothing, you don't even know your own surname after drinking a little wine, when you get out of the hospital, come home and reflect on your mistakes!"
Zheng Haolong had just been scolded by Chu Nan, and with his father now furious, he didn't dare make a sound for the time being.
While Zheng Miao said on the side, "Dad, don't blame my brother for that. Chu Nan clearly knew about the relationship between you and my brother, yet he still started a big fight. It's obvious that he has been harboring resentment towards our withdrawal from the engagement and deliberately wants to make things difficult for the Zheng family."
Zheng Miao said with a glance at Zheng Haolong, who hastily added: "Right, right, Dad. That Chu Nan was particularly arrogant and as soon as he heard I was from the Zheng family, he immediately took action."
"Alas!" Zheng Guangran sighed, his face gloomy. "I saw it back then, this Chu Nan is not a simpleton, no wonder, a tiger father has no dog son. I didn't expect this kid to learn such impressive medical skills, and now he's even climbed up the Wu family tree. I'm afraid that once he finds an opportunity to rise to prominence, he'll turn around and deal with our Zheng family."
"Dad, it's better to make the first move, or you'll suffer the consequences."
Zheng Guangran glared at his son fiercely, and then heard his daughter say beside him: "Dad, my brother is right, he should be taught a lesson. He bullied our sister and now he's beaten my brother into the hospital, this is simply taking revenge on our Zheng family one after another! Our Zheng family is so big and powerful, can't even handle a country bumpkin?"
Zheng Guangran snorted, a hint of chill flashing in his eyes, and coldly said: "Even if it weren't for your brother's affair, I wouldn't let him off the hook. Now that he's moved into the Wu household, he's become an obstacle to me. And this time, our Zheng family has lost too much face. Can't we even avenge ourselves against that little bastard after being unable to provoke Hua Linglong?"
Zheng Miaomiao didn't know how Chu Nan became her father's stumbling block, but when she heard her father say he wanted to teach Chu Nan a lesson, she immediately burst out laughing and excitedly asked: "Dad, how are we going to get revenge? Should we find someone to beat him up badly? Break his four limbs and throw him out of Jiangwan City?"
Zheng Guangran's eyes flashed with cold light, and he said coldly: "Don't worry, I have my own plan. Before this, didn't Miao Miao and Chu Nan take in that little brat Gu Cheng? Gu Cheng is currently pursuing you, so first think of a way to get Gu Cheng to show up, and even if something really happens to Chu Nan later on, the Wu family won't be able to blame us."
"My daughter knows."
Zheng Miao's eyes flashed with deep hatred: "Chu Nan, since you don't take me seriously, I'll make you break your hands and feet and roll back to the depths of the mountains!"

Gu Cheng wore a suit and leather shoes, with one hand bandaged, restlessly waiting for Zheng Miao Miao in the Western restaurant.
Ever since she was brutally beaten by Chu Nan last time, Zheng Miao Miao has been indifferent to him and doesn't like answering his calls. This makes him hate Chu Nan so much that if it weren't for the family's orders not to move against Chu Nan now, he would have found someone to avenge this grudge long ago.
Unexpectedly tonight, Zheng Miao Miao suddenly gave herself a call and asked to meet at a Western restaurant for dinner. Gu Cheng was overjoyed and arrived early to wait.
Gu Cheng Zheng was getting anxious, but then saw Zheng Miao Miao walking in from outside the dining hall. She was wearing a white see-through outfit, and you could vaguely see her bright red underwear inside. On her feet were purple high heels, and Gu Cheng's little brother almost stood up straight at the sight of her.
Zheng Miaomiao noticed that Gu Cheng was staring at her with fiery eyes, and a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes. The man in front of her was originally quite excellent in Zheng Miaomiao's eyes, but since he was beaten by Chu Nan last time, the white knight image immediately collapsed in Zheng Miaomiao's eyes. If it weren't for the fact that she needed to use him now, she wouldn't have asked him out.
Gu Cheng hastily stood up and said with a smile: "Miao Miao, you quickly sit down. It's so hot outside, do you want to drink something first?"
"Ah, bring me a cup of iced coffee."
"Good." Gu Cheng instructed the waiter, "First bring two cups of iced coffee."
After the two sat down, Zheng Miao's gaze deliberately fell on Gu Cheng's hand and exclaimed: "Oh, your hand shouldn't be seriously injured, right? Chu Nan really hit hard."
A flash of hatred flickered in Gu Cheng's eyes, and he said coldly, "Nothing, nothing. The doctor said that in a month or two, I'll be able to move around freely."
Zheng Miaomiao noticed the hatred in Gu Cheng's eyes and felt a little schadenfreude, thinking that the more miserable Gu Cheng was, the more he would hate Chu Nan, and the easier it would be to use him. But Zheng Miaomiao had completely forgotten that the other person had done all this for her own sake.
Zheng MiaoMiao sighed and said: "Ahh, is that so? This country bumpkin really went too far, actually turning you into this state."
The waiter brought an iced coffee, Gu Cheng handed the menu to Zheng Miao Miao, Zheng Miao Miao ordered a few main courses and let the waiter go first.
Gu Cheng sighed and said, "This country bumpkin is indeed too ruthless. Unfortunately, I didn't bring my bodyguard that day, otherwise I would have made this country bumpkin leave horizontally."
"It's not too late now!"
Gu Cheng stared blankly, looking at Zheng Miao Miao, and asked: "Miao Miao, what do you mean?"
"My intention is......" A cold glint flashed in Zheng Miao's eyes, "You can find two people to break his hands and feet, and let him roll out of Jiangwan City. With the ability of your Gu family, it's not just disabling a country bumpkin, even killing two people, I reckon you'll have a way to settle it too?"
Gu Cheng's face changed several times, and he shook his head: "Killing him is probably not an option. To be honest, I also want to teach him a lesson, but my dad won't let me. He says that now we have the Wu family backing us up, you know, Wu Pei is not a woman to be trifled with. In the business world, neither our Gu nor Zheng families are a match for hers."
Zheng Miao delicately sipped her iced coffee, her movements elegant and beautiful. She smiled faintly and said, "It's just the Wu family, my dad says they're having some trouble lately and will be too busy to bother with you, the Gu family, over a country bumpkin like me."
Just as Gu Cheng was still hesitating, Zheng Miao Miao coldly sneered: "Don't make me think you're not a man, or I'll look down on you."
Gu Cheng's face turned red, and he gritted his teeth, saying: "Then I'll go back and study it."
Zheng Miao Miao smiled, lightly tousling her hair, the action was seductive and enticing. Seeing Gu Cheng staring at her again, Zheng Miao Miao said in a soft, alluring tone: "Besides, I don't like this country bumpkin either. If you fix him, I'll have a better impression of you. Aren't you trying to pursue me...?"
Gu Cheng completely fell into Zheng Miao's beautiful trap, Zheng Miao's flirtatious movements, sexy voice, plus the transparent outfit in front of him, made Gu Cheng's excited face slightly flush, and he said excitedly: "Miao, for you, I must teach this ignorant country bumpkin a lesson, let him know the price of offending me, Gu Cheng!"
"Alright, I'll wait for that day." Zheng Miao's eyes flashed with a hint of complacency as she smiled faintly and said, "Remember to be ruthless, and find an expert. He seems to have two tricks up his sleeve. If you fail to defeat the tiger and get bitten instead, I will not only feel heartbroken but also extremely disappointed."
Never thought that beauty would care so much about herself, Gu Cheng grabbed Zheng Miao's jade hand on the table and excitedly said: "Miao...".
Zheng Miaomiao suddenly pulled her hand back, and the red-painted fingernails lightly scratched the back of Gu Cheng's hand. With a flirtatious gaze, she further tempted him: "If you defeat Chu Nan, I'll give you a chance to chase me; if you take down Chu Nan, I'll be yours."
Looking at Gu Cheng's excited and flushed face, Zheng Miao thought proudly in her heart, this time there will be a lively show to watch. With Gu Cheng's power, can't even handle a small country bumpkin? Chu Nan, let's see what you'll do this time!
————————————————————————————
The next afternoon, Chu Nan helped Wu Changqing with acupuncture again. This time, the Grand Manager Wu Han, Wu Pei and Ling Luo Xi were all waiting outside because Chu Nan said that after today's acupuncture, Wu Changqing was likely to wake up.
Wu Han followed Wu Changqing for many years. When Wu Changqing's life was in danger, Wu Han was one of the most anxious people. Seeing that there was no movement inside for a long time, Wu Han couldn't help but look at Ling Luo Xi and ask: "Miss Ling, can Mr. Chu really cure my master?"
Ling Luo Xi said impatiently: "My brother Chu said it's okay, then it must be okay."
Wu Pei also nodded beside him, with an expectant expression: "I also believe that Brother Chu can."
"Alright, I hope the old master has a good destiny." Wu Han clasped his hands together and began to pray.
The door creaked open, and Chu Nan's face turned slightly pale. He glanced at the three people outside and said, "Come in, Uncle Wu is awake."
Wu Han and Wu Pei rushed in almost at the same time, but Ling Luo Creek took out a handkerchief from her bosom and gently wiped away the sweat beads on Chu Nan's forehead before walking in with him.
Feeling Zero Luo Xi's gentleness, and smelling the faint scent of her body on his handkerchief, Chu Nan felt that a certain string in his heart was inexplicably touched, filling him with warmth and producing an inexplicable affection.
Wu Changqing slowly came to, first seeing a young yet extremely familiar face. The young person who made him feel very close and intimate suddenly ran out, then his daughter and the head housekeeper rushed to the bedside. Wu Pei directly threw herself onto the bed, lying on top of Wu Changqing's body, and began wailing loudly. This cry released all the anxiety, irritation, fear, and grievance that had built up over this period of time.
Wu Peisheng was strong and had never seen her daughter cry, not even Wu Changqing. For a moment, Wu Changqing's heart ached and she secretly sighed, thinking that her daughter was strong enough to bear many burdens. Only now did she realize how much pressure her daughter was under. Even the strongest woman in the world would shed tears.
