Chapter 441: Chapter 441: Showing Qiao Xi Who’s Boss

Qiao Xi followed his gaze outside.

She could only see a huge square, almost packed with people, comparable to a major celebrity’s fan meet. The crowd was noisy, and distant shouts could be heard.

This entire road was blocked.

Pedestrians continuously passed by on the sidewalks, in groups. They hurried along, their faces filled with surprise and joy.

The car window lowered a bit, the noisy environment getting louder around her ears.

"It’s Lu Yingxue, the Little Divine Doctor, doing a free clinic today."

"She provides us ordinary people with a free clinic and medicine every month, there are too few good people left in today’s world."

"Hurry up and get in line! If we’re late, we won’t get a number!"

Men and women, young and old, all ran towards the square, you could even see various banners fluttering in the air, with the name ’Lu Yingxue’ very prominently displayed. Due to her presence, the cars moved at a snail’s pace, adding to the traffic burden in the Imperial Capital.

Some out-of-town drivers expressed dissatisfaction, only to be cursed back by the crowd.

No one had the right to criticize their living Guanyin of the Imperial Capital.

The large screen in the square repeatedly showed photos of Lu Yingxue, playing clips of her doing free clinics everywhere.

Qiao Xi looked at the big screen; Lu Yingxue had an elegant and ethereal beauty, possessing a classic charm.

Her eyes and brows indeed carried a compassionate demeanor, very approachable. She maintained a smile on her face, flawless and beyond reproach.

"Wow."

Young Master Sun exclaimed.

She was beautiful.

But he was firm in his stance, quickly saying, "What kind of living Bodhisattva is this? She’s disrupting the traffic. We don’t know how long we’ll be stuck here, let’s not delay important matters. It’s not even certain who the Little Divine Doctor is, she might just be pandering to the public!"

He turned his head to look at Qiao Xi, who was intently sliding her finger across her phone screen, and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Looking at news reports, the internet is really convenient nowadays, you can find anything."

Qiao Xi browsed through the news about Lu Yingxue and discovered that she indeed held free clinics every month at the largest Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic in the Imperial Capital, but the clinics were always on the tenth of the month.

Today was not the tenth.

Nor was the location that clinic.

Qiao Xi glanced at the crowd. Was this a coincidence, or...

Bang!

The car suddenly shook, and Qiao Xi, out of inertia, was thrust forward hitting the back of the front seat, her forehead turning red and feeling dizzy. Young Master Sun nearly spilled the juice in his stomach.

"Ugh." He covered his mouth, feeling nauseous.

This was Old Chen hitting the brakes suddenly, as the car behind them had rear-ended them!

"Young Madam, are you okay!"

Old Chen shouted, "An old lady suddenly appeared in front. I braked hard to avoid hitting her."

As for the rear-end collision, it was entirely the following car’s fault, as they hadn’t maintained a safe distance.

"How is the old lady?"

Qiao Xi rubbed her forehead and asked.

"I’ll go down and check."

Old Chen parked the car properly and opened the door, only to be accosted by a middle-aged man.

"You hit my mom, pay up! With such a wide road, can’t you drive properly?" The man, looking tough to handle, shoved Old Chen, grabbing his collar and demanding an explanation.

The old lady lying on the ground kept crying out in pain while clutching her leg.

Passersby gathered around and couldn’t help but express sympathy, "At such an old age, a fall could be serious, surely it’s a fracture. You drivers must have been very careless to let the old lady suffer like this."

"I think you should just pay and take the old lady to the hospital for a checkup; driving a Bentley means you must not be short on money."

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man said assertively, "Compensation! Let’s settle for five hundred thousand! My mom will definitely need a full-body check at the hospital, not to mention our lost wages and compensation for emotional distress!"

Usually, Old Chen could have knocked him down with one move.

But this wasn’t the time for physical force, so he said, "I need to check the roadside surveillance and the dashcam footage first."

"Go ahead, check! By the time you finish, my mom might be dead. You rich people really don’t care about the lives of us ordinary folks!" He made a scene, "Everyone, come and judge for yourselves. Would I intentionally let my elderly mother suffer just to scam someone?"

His words stirred up resentment towards the wealthy among the crowd.

Their expressions varied as they looked at Old Chen, but they also felt that demanding five hundred thousand was indeed too much.

Emboldened by some support, the middle-aged man became more arrogant and pointed at Old Chen, "Look at you, you don’t even seem like someone who can make decisions. There are two more people in the car, have them come out! What are they, turtles hiding their heads?"

Sun Weimeng was infuriated upon hearing this.

Who the hell is calling me a coward.

He hated it the most when people called him a turtle.

He forcefully pushed open the car door and stepped out, "Who are you cursing? An old lady suddenly runs out into the road, not even using the pedestrian path! With the traffic congestion, the car speed wasn’t even ten miles per hour, how could that seriously injure someone? I think you’re just trying to extort money, asking for five hundred thousand right off the bat. I don’t have RMB, but I can burn five billion in Joss Paper for you!"

His sharp tongue was certainly not inferior to Huo Sijiao’s.

The two of them hung out together, influenced by each other, a case of ’birds of a feather flock together.’

"Young Master Sun."

Qiao Xi tugged at his sleeve, "Calm down a bit, don’t provoke him further."

"Okay, I’ll listen to you," Sun Weimeng immediately shut his mouth.

Qiao Xi stepped forward and said to the middle-aged man, "I’m a doctor, I can check on your mother first. If her injuries are serious, we’ll treat them immediately and not delay sending her to the hospital for further treatment. As for the accident, we need to review the dashcam footage and roadside surveillance to let the traffic police decide."

The middle-aged man then theatrically looked her over a few times and suddenly, slapping his forehead, shouted, "Everyone, come and look! Do you recognize this face? She was even interviewed on Haicheng TV Station! She’s the famous disciple of the National Doctor, Cheng Han!"

His voice was especially loud, as if to grab everyone’s attention, "Miss Lu from the Imperial Capital, our Living Guanyin, offers free medical care to everyone, but the disciple of Cheng Han from Haicheng hits someone and won’t pay! How can this be considered the behavior of a doctor who vows to help the world and heal the sick? She’s nowhere close to Little Divine Doctor Lu!"

"National Doctor’s disciple?" I’ll check my phone, it really is her!"

"Cheng Han is impressive, but his disciple isn’t necessarily as good as our Little Divine Doctor Lu. Look at that old lady’s pain, her face is all pale. So pitiful."

"People always say Haicheng’s traditional medicine is powerful, but I think we in the Imperial Capital are the best! Haicheng folks just love to boast without real ability."

Bystanders kept talking.

The faces of Old Chen and Sun Weimeng both looked grim.

In a low voice, Old Chen said to Qiao Xi, "Young Madam, I really didn’t hit that old lady. She either fell on her own or she is pretending! Seeing how aggressive this man is, it must be a setup, perhaps even orchestrated."

Qiao Xi was well-known in Haicheng, yet she hardly got recognized when going out.

After all, she was just a somewhat famous Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner, not a celebrity.

But in the Imperial Capital, it so happened she got recognized, and her identity was excessively propagated.

Something was fishy.

Qiao Xi stood aside with an exceptionally calm demeanor, not showing the slightest sign of panic. She had just checked the time and location of Lu Yingxue’s free clinic and had her suspicions.

This was a setback aimed at her upon arriving in the Imperial Capital!

So, the old lady was probably pretending, but she still needed to ascertain it.

Qiao Xi glanced at Sun Weimeng and gave him a meaningful look.
