"He's saved! He's saved! Dad! Dad, open your eyes and look! Xiaofei is here to save you! Xiaofei is here to save you!"
Qin Bing's mother became extremely excited after her initial shock.
The other members of the Qin family also looked thrilled!
They had been extremely anxious when all the renowned doctors and miracle healers in Xiling City had been unable to help.
Unexpectedly, at this critical juncture, Ye Fei, the Qin family's good son-in-law, had arrived!
As members of the Qin family, they all knew about Ye Fei's engagement to Qin Lan!
This engagement was personally arranged by Old Master Qin with Daoist Bai Mei!
To be precise, it was Daoist Bai Mei who had initiated it, and the Qin family was merely the fortunate one to be able to match with him!
What kind of status and prestige did Daoist Bai Mei possess!
Let alone in this small Xiling City, even the princes and nobles in the imperial capital would respectfully call him their elder!
If Daoist Bai Mei hadn't first spoken these words of "golden decree," the Qin family wouldn't have even dared to dream of such an engagement, let alone actually arranging one!
Now that Ye Fei himself had come, how could the Qin family not be excited and happy?
"Hey, hey, hey! What's going on with you, Auntie? Who said I'm here to save this old man?"
"Qin family, can you stop making baseless connections? I'm here today to break off the engagement!"
Ye Fei was fine before hearing Qin Bing's mother's words, but as soon as he heard them, he became displeased.
Therefore, Ye Fei immediately shouted loudly.
"What! Break... break off the engagement?"
Qin Bing's mother exclaimed in shock, her beautiful eyes snapping to Ye Fei, doubting if she had heard correctly.
Whoosh!
The renowned doctors and miracle healers nearby also erupted in a clamor!
Break off the engagement?
What was going on?
This was the first time they had encountered such a peculiar situation!
"That's right, I'm here to break off the engagement! Back then, this engagement was decided by my master, that old immortal, without my knowledge. I absolutely would not have agreed! If I had known, I would never have consented! My heart belongs only to my eldest martial sister, and I will marry no one else in this lifetime! Forget it, forget it... Why explain so much to you people? Stop the nonsense, just get me the Yin Jade that my master gave you back, and this engagement will be considered broken."
"Hurry up, hurry up, I'm in a hurry and need to go to the next place. My master, that old immortal, has arranged seven engagements for me, and I have to go and break them off one by one!"
Ye Fei glanced at the Qin family members and spoke directly without any further ado.
His words, however, caused the expressions of everyone in the Qin family to turn grim.
Although the Qin family's status and position were incomparable to Daoist Bai Mei, not even worthy of carrying his shoes!
However, in Xiling City, the Qin family was still considered a prominent family.
Furthermore, at this moment, so many renowned doctors and miracle healers were examining Old Master Qin!
Ye Fei, showing no regard for their feelings, immediately started clamoring about breaking off the engagement, which was enough to anger anyone!
"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law! Regarding this engagement, besides Grandpa, no one else in our family can make the decision!"
"Moreover, this engagement was arranged between your master and Grandpa, okay! So if you want to break off the engagement, you should talk to Grandpa! So, brother-in-law, you should first heal Grandpa and wake him up..."
At this moment, Qin Bing stepped forward to mediate, speaking to Ye Fei.
"Pah! What happens to this old man is none of my business! If I heal the old man later, will you say that Qin Lan isn't in Xiling City and the engagement can't be broken off for now?"
"I've seen through your little schemes! Stop the nonsense, return the Yin Jade that my master gave you to me, and this engagement will be considered broken!"
Ye Fei was completely unmoved and impatiently urged them on.
"Cough cough! Cough cough!"
Just as Ye Fei finished speaking, Old Master Qin, who was lying on the bed, suddenly coughed violently for some unknown reason.
"Gasp!"
Then, he spat out a mouthful of blood. His already pale complexion instantly worsened.
Moreover, his breathing became heavy and faint, giving everyone the feeling that he might stop breathing at any moment and pass away on the spot.
"Grandpa! Grandpa! Grandpa, what's wrong, what's wrong!"
"Dad! Dad, don't scare us! Don't scare us!"
Upon seeing the old master's condition suddenly deteriorate so severely, all the Qin family members' faces changed.
Immediately, a group of people surrounded the bed, calling out anxiously.
Unfortunately, after spitting blood, Old Master Qin's eyes were tightly closed, and he remained unconscious!
The renowned doctors and miracle healers also rushed over, taking his pulse and examining him.
However, after a moment, they stepped back, sighed, and shook their heads!
Although they hadn't spoken a word, their expressions clearly conveyed everything!
That is, Old Master Qin was close to death!
It was also strange that, even until now, they couldn't diagnose what illness Old Master Qin was suffering from.
And because they couldn't diagnose his illness, they didn't know how to proceed!
"Brother-in-law! Brother-in-law, please! Please save my Grandpa!"
At this moment, seeing the old master struggling to breathe, Qin Bing's eyes turned red!
She immediately turned and ran to Ye Fei, pleading with him desperately.
"Don't beg me, it's useless to beg me... Unless you break off this engagement, I might happily help you cure this old man."
Ye Fei was not swayed by this and said to Qin Bing.
Qin Bing was stunned upon hearing this. She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but after the words reached her lips, she swallowed them back!
"We can't decide on breaking off this engagement! Don't rush to speak... I know you won't believe me when I say this!"
"But that's the actual situation! Moreover, didn't you say earlier? This engagement was discussed and decided by your master and Grandpa! And the Yin Jade has always been kept by Grandpa!"
"As for where he kept that Yin Jade, we don't know. And if Grandpa dies, it's uncertain if we'll even be able to find the Yin Jade..."
At this moment, Qin Bing's mother spoke.
Ye Fei listened as she spoke.
He was fine before hearing her words, but as soon as he heard them, his expression became increasingly grim!
Damn it! Is this Qin family so despicable and shameless?
"Xiaofei, Auntie isn't forcing you to save the old master, it's just... sigh! I know you won't believe me no matter how I explain!"
"However, from Auntie's personal perspective, you are handsome and heroic. Our Xiao Lan has accumulated good fortune for eight lifetimes, and her ancestors must have smoked blessed incense to be able to marry you. I really don't want to break off this engagement."
"But if you insist on breaking off this engagement, then it can only be blamed on our Xiao Lan, for not having such good fortune and not being worthy of you. Auntie will respect your decision! But the Yin Jade is indeed in Grandpa's hands, so..."
Qin Bing's mother glanced at Ye Fei, sighed, and started to play on his emotions!
As expected, Ye Fei's expression improved slightly after hearing the latter part of Qin Bing's mother's words!
Sigh! What a troublesome situation!
Is being excellent also a mistake now?
This is only the first engagement he's breaking off, and it's already so difficult. There are still six more to go, he's really worried!
"Brother-in-law..."
As Ye Fei's expression fluctuated with his thoughts, Qin Bing immediately tugged at Ye Fei's clothes, looking at him pitifully.
"Don't call me brother-in-law, don't call me brother-in-law! I haven't acknowledged this engagement yet! Forget it, forget it, then I'll first wake this old man up."
Ye Fei glared at Qin Bing, feeling helpless!
It wasn't that he wanted to save him, but if this old man really died and the Yin Jade couldn't be found, and the Qin family reneged, he wouldn't have any legal standing!
"Thank you, brother-in-law! I knew you wouldn't stand by and do nothing!"
Qin Bing ignored him completely, calling him brother-in-law repeatedly.
In the end, Ye Fei was too lazy to pay attention to Qin Bing anymore!
Then, Ye Fei walked to the bedside and his gaze fell upon Old Master Qin lying on the bed.
"Hmm?"
Just as Ye Fei was about to examine Old Master Qin, his expression suddenly froze, and he couldn't help but utter a sound of surprise.
