Chapter 685: Chapter 685: I Was Right, Wasn’t I?

Just as Chen Xuan was making idle chitchat with Song Qiuhuan, a voice suddenly rang out beside them.

"Miss Song, what a coincidence to meet you here!"

Song Qiuhuan turned her head and saw a middle-aged man dressed in Public Security Bureau attire, looking at her excitedly.

Song Qiuhuan smiled faintly, "It turns out to be Director Zhao!"

Chen Xuan’s expression changed when he saw the badge number on Director Zhao’s uniform.

Looking at this man’s badge number, it was clear he was the second-ranked person in the public security sector!

Indeed, as Chen Xuan had guessed, this man was named Zhao Tianheng, and he held the second-highest position in Sijiu City’s Public Security Bureau, wielding considerable power.

However, here was a man who wielded such great power and was of an elder’s stature, displaying extreme respect and adopting a very low posture in front of Song Qiuhuan!

But this was not surprising, as Song Qiuhuan’s brother was the esteemed Western Territory War God, and the background of the entire Song Family was so significant that it was frightening; even within the whole of Sijiu City, there were very few families that could compare with the Song Family.

Zhao Tianheng might have a significant reputation, but in front of the Song Family, he was nothing.

Yet, facing someone of Zhao Tianheng’s caliber, Song Qiuhuan remained incredibly calm and composed, displaying ease that contrasted sharply with the simple doctor she had been at the hospital, almost like two different people.

Chen Xuan couldn’t help but marvel inwardly; Song Qiuhuan was indeed from a major family, her demeanor and courage were not something ordinary girls could compare with.

Nevertheless, Chen Xuan also felt that Song Qiuhuan, as she was in the hospital, seemed more genuine, while the woman sitting before him now gave him a sense of distance.

After exchanging pleasantries with Song Qiuhuan for a few moments, Zhao Tianheng’s gaze finally rested on Chen Xuan.

"Miss Song, who might this be?"

Song Qiuhuan introduced with a smile, "This is my friend, Chen Xuan! Chen Xuan, this is Zhao Tianheng from the Sijiu City Public Security Bureau, Director Zhao!"

"Director Zhao, hello!"

Even though Chen Xuan was not fond of such occasions, he still smiled and stood up to greet Zhao Tianheng; after all, he intended to build up his connections in Sijiu City, and this moment seemed an opportune time to start.

Ordinarily, someone of Chen Xuan’s status would not have caught the attention of an important figure like Zhao Tianheng, but now, thanks to his relationship with Song Qiuhuan, Zhao Tianheng naturally did not dare show the slightest neglect towards Chen Xuan.

After all, Song Qiuhuan was famously aloof, and within the entire circle of Sijiu City, there were seldom rumors of her having any friends.

And now, here she was having a meal alone with a man named Chen Xuan?

The implications behind this were not lost on Zhao Tianheng.

"Mr. Chen, truly young and promising!"

"My name is Zhao Tianheng. You can call me Old Zhao, and if you ever need any help, don’t hesitate to ask! Hahaha..."

Zhao Tianheng’s smile was warm and he seemed very approachable.

But those who knew Zhao Tianheng were aware that he was infamously strict on a typical day.

Chen Xuan had just taken Zhao Tianheng’s hand and was about to speak when he suddenly sensed something and his expression changed.

Zhao Tianheng was also left puzzled by Chen Xuan’s reaction.

"Mr. Chen, what’s the matter... is there a problem?" Zhao Tianheng asked, puzzled.

Chen Xuan let out a sigh and said, "I am fine, but..."

"But what?" Zhao Tianheng pressed.

Chen Xuan hesitated for a moment before finally saying, "I suggest that Director Zhao should go to the hospital for a check-up as soon as possible. There might be a problem with your pancreas..."

"What?!"

Zhao Tianheng was a bit stunned, his eyes wide with disbelief as he stared at Chen Xuan.

Zhao Tianheng couldn’t help but wonder if this Mr. Chen had a problem in his head. To come up and say directly that there was a problem with his pancreas?

Was this an intentional curse?!

To be honest, with Zhao Tianheng’s temper, had it not been for the fact that the other party was a friend of Song Qiuhuan, he would have exploded in anger right there.

Daring to curse him, how audacious!

"Mr. Chen, are you joking with me? We seem to be meeting for the first time, so how can you be so sure that there’s something wrong with my pancreas?"

Zhao Tianheng suppressed the rage in his heart and managed a forced smile as he spoke.

Chen Xuan’s expression was calm, "To be frank, I have a little knowledge of medicine. Earlier, when I shook hands with Director Zhao, I felt that the pulse of Director Zhao’s pancreas had significant issues, which led me to make my deduction!"

"A handshake? Pulse?" Zhao Tianheng was about to laugh.

The handshake with Chen Xuan had lasted only two or three seconds, and to diagnose a health issue in such a brief time?

Wasn’t this a joke?

If that was all it took for an accurate diagnosis, then what use are the million-dollar equipment in hospitals? They’d be nothing but decoration!

It wasn’t just Zhao Tianheng who thought this, but even his entourage couldn’t help but cover their mouths to stifle their laughter, clearly finding Chen Xuan’s words too exaggerated to be true.

"Mr. Chen really has a sense of humor. To be honest, I just had a health check this morning, and I’m in very good shape right now. However, I appreciate the thought, Mr. Chen!"

Zhao Tianheng maintained his smile, out of respect for Song Qiuhuan.

Song Qiuhuan, realizing Zhao Tianheng didn’t take Chen Xuan’s diagnosis seriously, kindly reminded him, "Director Zhao, I know that Mr. Chen’s words may seem a bit absurd to you, but I have witnessed Chen Xuan’s medical skills myself. He is definitely on par with the National Doctor Saint level, not at all inferior to the senior doctors at the national hospital."

"Now that he has said so, I think it would be wise of you to be careful!"

These words from Song Qiuhuan evidently showed support for Chen Xuan.

Zhao Tianheng, however, remained unconvinced, thinking Song Qiuhuan had been fooled, and casually responded, "Thank you for your concern, Miss Song. I’ll be careful! I have some matters to attend to, so I won’t delay your meal any longer. I’ll take my leave!"

Having said that, Zhao Tianheng left with his entourage right away.

It was only after Zhao Tianheng and the others had left that Song Qiuhuan asked curiously, "Are you sure about this? Does Zhao Tianheng really have an illness?"

Chen Xuan nodded, "Pancreatic cancer, late stage!"

Hiss...

Song Qiuhuan couldn’t help but inhale sharply.

If Chen Xuan was right, then Zhao Tianheng was indeed in grave danger!

Chen Xuan hesitated for a moment before finally saying, "Meeting Zhao Tianheng here, that was your arrangement, wasn’t it?"

Song Qiuhuan was taken aback, then smiled, "Why would you say that?"

Chen Xuan smiled and revealed his speculation, "Out of all the restaurants, you chose this one in particular. And with your status, as well as your relationship with the manager here, you should be dining in a private room. Yet, you specifically chose to be in the hall, and moreover, by the corridor."

"Furthermore, while you were talking to me just now, you were glancing outside, as if waiting for someone."

"Thus, you brought me here, presumably to specifically create an opportunity for me to meet Zhao Tianheng."

"Am I wrong?"
