Chapter 43: The Circle of Aristocratic Young Masters

  Qiao Senquan, as the richest man in Jiangzhou, was originally from a humble background. Although he created a huge family business, he deeply understood the truth that wealth does not last for three generations. Therefore, he attached great importance to Qiao Binkai's education, which also led to Qiao Binkai, this only son, not having the spoiled habits of other young masters, and being a relatively good person.

  Furthermore, Wang Xu had just treated his beloved son's illness earlier, so although the two men were meeting for the first time, they chatted happily and the atmosphere at the dinner table was quite pleasant.

  Han Yixue was originally going to meet Wang Xu today, but now He Minhua and Qiao Senquan have joined in. She hasn't forgotten her original intention. When He Minhua heard that Wang Xu had been fired by the First Affiliated Hospital, she was shocked and hastily asked for the reason.

  As for this matter involving himself, Wang Xu naturally found it hard to explain. On the other hand, Han Yixue smiled and briefly told the story of what had happened, but after all, she was just a listener and didn't understand the inside story very well.

  It is said that Wang Xu misdiagnosed and caused the death of Shao Peihong's beloved son, which surprised both He Minhua and Qiao Binkai. After two encounters with Wang Xu, He Minhua felt that his medical skills were absolutely not inferior to those famous doctors, and could even be compared to Yun Chong and Liu Qiancheng, but who would have thought that there was also a case of capsizing in the gutter.

  "Treating illnesses and saving lives, no one can guarantee zero mistakes. Doctor Wang, you shouldn't be too hard on yourself." He Minhua didn't understand the situation, but upon hearing that Wang Xu voluntarily accepted disciplinary action and was even willing to have his medical license revoked, he suddenly felt great admiration for him and spoke out to comfort him.

  "After all, even internationally renowned doctors can have accidents. Wang doesn't need to be too hard on himself." Qiao Bin Kai also advised.

  "Thank you both for your concern, I have a plan in mind. Wherever I fall is where I'll get back up, and life must go on." Wang Xu raised his wine cup and smiled faintly: "I'd like to toast the two of you."

  He Minhua and Qiao Binkai also raised their glasses, after drinking, He Minhua asked again about Wang Xu's plan: "I don't know what Dr. Wang thinks, is he planning to leave Yun City?"

  "I've thought about it and I'm planning to open a clinic in Zhongjiang. I don't have the heart to stay in Yun City anymore," said Wang Xu with a smile.

  "Going to Zhongjiang is great." As soon as Wang Xu's words fell, Qiao Bin Kai smiled and continued: "Our Qiao Group has many shops and storefronts. Tomorrow I'll take you, little brother, to take a look and choose whichever one you like."

  Wang Xu was still worried about the door, but he didn't decline and smiled again: "Then I'll thank Brother Qiao first, let me drink a toast." After saying that, he picked up his cup and drank it all in one gulp.

  Several people had dinner together until 8:30 in the evening, Qiao Bin and his wife brought their children, so they couldn't stay for long. Wang Xu and Han Yixue also left together.

  After returning to the dormitory, Wang Xu continued to pack up the things he had packed in the afternoon and then took a bath and went to sleep.

  The next morning at 9 o'clock, Wang Xu received a call from Qiao Binkai after having breakfast. Today, the couple planned to return to Zhongjiang and happened to take Wang Xu with them.

  Wang Xu didn't bring much luggage, just the big bag he carried on his back when he came to Yun City, which had a few sets of spare clothes and a small medical kit inside. As for bedding and other things, he simply threw them away.

  Qiao Bin Kai personally drove to the dormitory building to pick up Wang Xu. After a night's rest, Qiao Bin Kai's son, Qiao Zhi Hao, had sobered up from his drunkenness and was making a ruckus early in the morning, looking like there was nothing wrong with him. This made Qiao Bin Kai even more affectionate towards Wang Xu.

  After getting on the bus, Qiao Bin Kai went straight to Zhongjiang. Looking at Yun City gradually disappearing from view, Wang Xu couldn't help but let out a sigh of regret. He didn't expect that he would leave after staying in this place for only a month. It's really unpredictable how things turn out.

  This time in Yun Cheng, Wang Xu really gained a lot. It's true that there is bitterness and sweetness, feeling the helplessness and bitterness of the current medical system, getting to know Liu Qiancheng, a master of Chinese medicine, and also owing favors to Tian Minghui and Zhang Yiming.

  The car sped all the way, and the scenery outside the window changed rapidly. At 1:30 in the afternoon, Wang Xu arrived at Zhongjiang again, and Qiao Binkai directly took Wang Xu to his own residence for temporary rest.

  Qiao Bin Kai's residence is a Western-style garden villa located on the banks of the Jianghuai River in Zhongjiang City, with beautiful scenery and pleasant views. This area absolutely belongs to the wealthy district of Zhongjiang City, where every inch of land is worth its weight in gold, and only the rich or noble can afford to own a house here.

  To be honest, living in such a place, Wang Xu still felt somewhat constrained, with security checks on entry and exit, although the environment was good, but it was inevitable that there was less human touch and vitality.

  In fact, as a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, Wang Xu still likes the atmosphere of rural areas. The countryside has a broad field of vision and feels like the whole sky is open and bright. In cities, high-rise buildings stand tall and cars come and go, inevitably giving people a sense of oppression.

  Additionally, with the fast pace of life and high consumption, looking at the towering skyscrapers around, some people with poor mental quality and harsh living conditions can't help but feel a sense of insignificance in life, which also leads to a much higher suicide rate in big cities compared to rural areas.

  Qiao Bin's enthusiasm was hard to refuse, and Wang Xu couldn't bear to lose face in front of Qiao's family, so he could only temporarily move into the Qiao's home, thinking that once he had selected a good clinic location, he would go out and buy a house.

  "Wow! No wonder he's the richest man in Jiangzhou, this house is not just luxurious." Wang Xu couldn't help but sigh as he sat in the house arranged by Qiao Binkai for himself.

  Qiao Bin Kai's villa is extremely spacious, with a swimming pool and golf course. Wang Xu thinks it's absolutely not oppressive, like an amusement park. Just take the house he lives in, which is over 50 square meters.

  "The Zhu family's meat and wine reek, the road has frozen bones." For some reason, Wang Xu suddenly remembered Du Fu's poem. This was his first encounter with such a wealthy family. It was truly "unseen, unknown; one glance, shocked". The daily expenses of this kind of household were enough for an ordinary family to live on for one or two years.

  Qiao Bin Kai returned to Zhongjiang and went straight to the Qiao Group headquarters. This time he went to Yun City was originally to negotiate business with Yunhua Group, now back naturally want to go to the company to report, arrange follow-up work.

  Without Qiao Bin Kai's company, Wang Xu didn't even feel like strolling around the villa alone and fortunately stayed in his room reading books, unknowingly until six o'clock in the afternoon.

  Wang Xuzheng said, "How about we get something to eat?" Just then, Qiao Binkai returned and as soon as he entered the door, he greeted: "Dr. Wang, are you hungry? Tonight I'll take you out for a meal."

  Listening to Qiao Bin Kai's words, Wang Xu couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. He could finally go out and get some fresh air. Although there were many servants in this large villa, he didn't have the habit of ordering people around and didn't know how to open his mouth.

  In the afternoon, he went out of the room several times. Each time he went out, the villa's servant aunt politely asked: "Sir, do you have any instructions?" Which made him very unnatural.

  "Living in such a place is simply torture for me." Wang Xu couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh, the life that others yearned for had become torture in his eyes, and he wondered how many people would curse him if they found out.

  Qiao Bin Kai led Wang Xu out of the villa and directly to Jianghuai Restaurant, the largest restaurant in Zhongjiang. Like Biancheng Restaurant in Yuncheng, this Jianghuai Restaurant was also a Qiao family business. In terms of specifications and decoration, it was much better than Biancheng Restaurant. This five-star restaurant was also divided into grades.

  "I've specially arranged for a few friends to meet you, and they'll take care of you in Zhongjiang, so you won't have as much trouble." Qiao Binkai said as he walked forward.

  "Thank you, Brother Qiao," Wang Xu hastily said. He wasn't very interested in getting to know these rich young masters, but after what happened in Yun City, he understood that in this world, no matter what you did, you always needed connections; otherwise, you'd end up like Bai Nongxin from Xiangxiang Pavilion, who got beaten up by a group of thugs.

  Wang Xu is a man of simple tastes and doesn't care about fame or wealth, but he's not inflexible either. He knows how to adapt and when Ge Binkai showed him kindness, he couldn't bear to disappoint him.

  As the status of Qiao's family in Jiangzhou, the people that Qiao Bin Kai knew were naturally all young masters from prominent families and high-ranking officials. As Qiao Bin Kai entered the private room, there were already five young men dressed in bright clothes sitting inside, with the younger ones being around 25 or 26 years old, and the older ones being around 32 or 33.

  "Director Qiao, you're late today! You'll have to punish yourself with three cups later." As soon as they saw Qiao Bin Kai enter the door, the young people in the private room suddenly started shouting.

  "No problem, I'll drink three cups later." Qiao Bin Kai smiled and nodded, making way for Wang Xu: "First, let me introduce a friend to everyone. This is my newly acquainted little brother, Wang Xu. He used to work at the First Affiliated Hospital of Yuncheng, but now he's come to Zhongjiang and plans to open a small clinic. I hope you'll all take care of him in the future."

  As Qiao Bin Kai introduced the young man with such solemnity, everyone thought he was another rich kid from a wealthy family. But unexpectedly, he turned out to be a young doctor from Yun City, a small place.

  As the provincial capital city's rich son, he always has a sense of superiority, just like Kyoto's locals, who always think that people from other places are country bumpkins. These people are the same, although Yun City is Jiangzhou's second largest city, in their hearts it is still a small place.

  Since Wang Xu didn't have any impressive background, the few people present were somewhat unenthusiastic. However, for Qiao Bin Kai's sake, they slightly nodded their heads at Wang Xu, thereby giving him some face.

  Qiao Binkai also knew that these people were arrogant and didn't expect them to be enthusiastic, just leading Wang Xu to familiarize himself with the face, all in Zhongjiang, who knows what kind of intersection there will be later, and also avoid the big water rushing to the Dragon King Temple.

  "Come on, Wang, let me introduce you to these guys. They're all famous rich kids from Zhongjiang, don't learn any bad habits from them." Qiao Bin Kai said with a smile, his tone humorous, which eased the awkwardness a bit.

  Among these people, the oldest is Lei Peng, the young master of Mingyuan Group in Zhongjiang, and Mingyuan Group is also one of the top ten enterprises in Zhongjiang; a young man with yellow hair is Ma Baolong, the son of Vice Governor Ma Shuanglin; the elegant one is Luo Chenghai, the son of Mayor Luo Tongquan of Zhongjiang City. When introducing Luo Chenghai, Qiao Bin Kai specially added a sentence: "Don't look at this guy's elegant appearance, he's actually a scoundrel." This made Luo Chenghai roll his eyes.

  The other two are Li Yifeng, the son of Li Wangtong, Minister of Transportation, and Jiang Tao, the second grandson of Jianghai Group. Compared to Mingyuan Group, Jianghai Group is a bit inferior, and this Jiang Tao is the worst among these people.
