Chapter 01 is truly a disgrace!
"My grandfather could have been saved! You killed him! I'll make you pay with your life!"
"No...it wasn't me!" Liu Qingxuan finally panicked and could no longer maintain his hypocritical mask.
If it were an ordinary person who got into trouble, it would be fine, but unfortunately, it was Zheng Zangfeng!
He is the head of the Zheng family, a top-tier wealthy family in Beijing, and even the Jiang family has to give him some face!
If the Zheng family holds a grudge against him because of this, then things will be troublesome.
Liu Qingxuan took half a step back, forcing himself to explain.
"It's because his own yin energy is too strong, and there's no cure for him. I've done my best, and none of this has anything to do with me."
"Did you do your best?" Shen Yu asked coldly.
"I reminded you three times, but you didn't listen. Now that the person is dead, you say you did your best? Liu Qingxuan, is this how you treat human life so carelessly, the so-called number one metaphysics master in Beijing?"
The people around him also realized what was happening, and their gazes towards Liu Qingxuan instantly changed.
The earlier praise turned into doubt and disappointment, and murmurs arose one after another:
"My God, Mr. Shen was absolutely right!"
"So Mr. Qingxuan was completely incompetent! He almost got Chairman Zheng killed!"
"I used to trust him so much, but it turns out it was all an act!"
"Just now you were saying Mr. Shen was spreading rumors and misleading the public, but it turns out you're the one who's lying!"
Hearing these comments, Liu Qingxuan felt his face burning with embarrassment, wishing he could disappear into the ground.
Since he made a name for himself in Beijing and became a respected master of metaphysics and a reclusive sage, he has never suffered such humiliation again.
No matter who it is, everyone treats him with utmost courtesy and respect, fearing that offending him might affect their own fortune.
But now, he is being criticized, ridiculed, and mocked by these people in front of everyone!
What a shame!
This is truly a disgrace!
However, the fact remains that he failed to save Zheng Zangfeng, and the Zheng family's power makes it difficult for him to distort the truth.
To save face, they could only put on an upright and unyielding demeanor, as if they had been wronged but disdained to explain themselves.
"Get out of the way!"
At this moment, Shen Yu pushed through the crowd, walked to Zheng Zangfeng's side, looked at Zheng Yuxuan, and said in a deep voice,
"Only I can save him now. If you want your grandfather to live, don't stop me."
Zheng Yuxuan was stunned for a moment. Looking at Shen Yu's determined eyes, then at his grandfather lying lifeless on the ground, he gritted his teeth, suddenly knelt down in front of Shen Yu, and kowtowed deeply.
"Mr. Shen! Please! Please save my grandfather! I was wrong just now, I apologize! I'll do anything to save my grandfather!"
"Get up." Shen Yu helped him up, without saying anything more, squatted down, and took out the silver needles he always carried from his pocket.
His movements were swift and steady; with a flick of his fingertips, several silver needles precisely pierced Zheng Zangfeng's Baihui and other key acupoints.
Immediately, he twitched his fingertips slightly, and a wisp of golden spiritual energy, visible only to him, flowed through the silver needles into Zheng Zangfeng's body, gradually dispersing the chaotic Yin energy within him and repairing his damaged meridians and heart meridians.
Everyone held their breath, staring intently at Shen Yu's movements, not daring to even breathe loudly.
In just over ten seconds, Zheng Zangfeng, who had stopped breathing, suddenly coughed violently, spitting out several mouthfuls of black blood. He then gasped for breath and slowly opened his eyes.
"Grandpa!" Zheng Yuxuan cried with joy and rushed over.
"Grandpa, you're awake! That's wonderful! You're finally awake!"
The way people around Shen Yu looked at him completely changed to one of awe.
Those who had just been condemning him all lowered their heads in shame and began to whisper among themselves:
"Mr. Shen is amazing! He really saved that person!"
"Much more skilled than Liu Qingxuan! Liu Qingxuan almost killed someone just now!"
"We can't trust Liu Qingxuan anymore; Mr. Shen is truly capable!"
As Liu Qingxuan listened to the murmurs around him, he gripped the prayer beads so tightly that his knuckles turned white. He stared intently at Shen Yu, who was surrounded by the crowd, his venomous gaze almost piercing through him.
Staying any longer would only make things more embarrassing. Liu Qingxuan gritted his teeth, pushed aside the crowd of onlookers, and rushed towards the banquet hall entrance without looking back.
The atmosphere in the banquet hall completely reversed.
Everyone crowded around Shen Yu and Jiang Xinlan, eagerly handing over their business cards, hoping to get to know Shen Yu.
"Mr. Shen, I am General Manager Wang of Tiansheng Group. I've long admired your name!"
"Mr. Shen, you are truly amazing! That move you just made was absolutely incredible, like bringing someone back from the brink of death!"
"If Mr. Shen needs anything in Beijing in the future, just ask, and we will go through fire and water for you!"
Shen Yu remained calm throughout, merely nodding slightly at the business cards handed to him, never reaching out to take one, and always keeping Jiang Xinlan protected by his side.
At this moment, Zheng Zangfeng, who had just woken up, leaned on his cane and, supported by Zheng Yuxuan, quickly walked to Shen Yu. His voice trembled with excitement as he tightly grasped Shen Yu's hand, refusing to let go.
"Mr. Shen! I can't thank you enough! You saved my life today, which means you saved the entire Zheng family! From this day forward, you are the greatest benefactor of the Zheng family. Whatever your orders, I, Zheng Zangfeng, will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
He turned and glared fiercely at Zheng Yuxuan beside him, saying sternly:
"Apologize to Mr. Shen right now! If it weren't for Mr. Shen, your grandpa would be dead already!"
Zheng Yuxuan's face flushed red, and he bowed deeply to Shen Yu, his waist bent at almost a ninety-degree angle, his voice filled with shame and lingering fear:
"Mr. Shen, I'm so sorry! I was blind to your greatness just now and spoke rudely to you, almost causing a serious mistake."
"You are so magnanimous, please don't hold it against me. From now on, if you ever need me, I, Zheng Yuxuan, will do anything for you, even at the cost of my life!"
Shen Yu gently withdrew his hand, his tone calm and indifferent:
"It was nothing. Mr. Zheng, please take good care of yourself and be more careful around those around you in the future, so that you won't be easily taken advantage of again."
Zheng Zangfeng nodded vigorously:
"Yes, yes, yes! I've got it!"
Mr. Shen, please be sure to leave me your contact information so I can visit you in person to express my gratitude and ask for your advice if I need anything!
Unable to resist his insistence, Shen Yu gestured for Lu Zongming to leave his phone number.
Zheng Zangfeng was overjoyed and carefully saved the file to his phone. He then spent a long time expressing his gratitude before reluctantly leaving with Zheng Yuxuan.
In the shadows not far away, Jiang Zhenbang stood quietly, holding a glass of red wine.
His gaze darted back and forth between Shen Yu and Jiang Xinlan, his brows furrowed, his heart churning with turmoil.
This young man from Jiangcheng possessed a powerful aura that he couldn't fathom, making him far more than just an ordinary businessman.
What troubled him even more was Jiang Xinlan.
Who exactly is she, and why does she look so much like his wife, Shen Jiao?
