Chapter 64: Arrogant at First but Polite Afterwards, Offering Sincere Devotion

  Many people began to speculate about Qin Lang's identity, secretly suspecting that this seemingly ordinary young man might be the legendary "princeling". Otherwise, why would Zhang, the arrogant and powerful manager who had direct contact with the provincial TV station director, suddenly change his expression?

  Of course, the most shocking thing is Cao Yan and Zhu Ganglie. In their inert thinking, Qin Lang was just a fool. But now, it's just such a foolish person who made Manager Zhang put down his mighty attitude and behave more flatteringly than a slave, which is simply unbelievable.

  "Yanyan, are you sure he's an idiot?" Zhu Ganglie suddenly appeared beside Cao Yanyan again, with a look of surprise on his face.

  Cao Yan glanced at Zhu Ganglie and thought: I've seen this fool grow up, can't I be sure?

  It's probably just her imagination, but Cao Yan couldn't shake off the strange feeling in her heart. She felt that today's foolish behavior was vastly different from before. This difference gave her a faintly ominous feeling, as if something she had always controlled suddenly slipped out of control.

  The surroundings had become extremely quiet at some point, as if everyone was waiting in silence for the next more intense plot. This eyewitness spectacle is far more exciting than a movie.

  Manager Zhang's face was smiling, but his heart was uneasy. Qin Lang's calm and composed expression made him feel that he had offended a formidable person today. But he felt wronged in his heart, which prince would be so low-key? Isn't this being sincere in making fun of these small characters?

  "I don't know what you're talking about, I'm here to buy medicine." Qin Lang ignored Zhang's politeness, although he had already guessed the reason for this person's change in attitude from Hao Wei's raised eyebrows and playful expression beside him, but he didn't bother to rely on a mere provincial governor's pen to gain an advantage.

  Manager Zhang's heart skipped a beat, and he bowed even lower. Qin Lang's uncooperative attitude made him tense up. He immediately nodded repeatedly, saying: "Right, right, right! You're here to buy medicine. Don't worry, our Rich and Noble Pharmacy will definitely serve you with enthusiasm and make sure you leave satisfied."

  As he spoke, he gave Cao Yaoshi a fierce stare.

  Cao Yao Shi was so frightened that he lost his wits and couldn't react. Fortunately, Old Yang by the counter saw the situation and quickly took out the two medicinal herbs Qin Lang had wanted to buy earlier, hurrying over with them in a jog.

  Manager Zhang took the medicine from Old Yang's hand and carefully handed it to Qin Lang, "This is the medicine you need. If it's not enough, just let us know and our pharmacy will definitely find a way to help you make up for it."

  Qin Lang originally wanted to say that the amount of these medicinal materials was indeed a bit less, and it would be better to have more. But after thinking about it, even if the wealthy and powerful pharmacy helped him collect these two orphaned medicines through their own channels, he estimated that the time required would not be short, and he could not wait for a long time. Anyway, at present, the amount of these two medicinal materials was barely enough for him to decoct the medicine, so he didn't want to entangle with this greedy pharmacy anymore.

  "That's enough." Qin Lang took over the vacuum bag containing two medicinal materials and casually threw it into the large pouch on his hand. Then he said, "As for the price..."

  "Never mind the price, you've come to buy medicine, it's an honor for our pharmacy. For a distinguished guest like you, everything is free." Manager Zhang said hastily.

  "Manager Zhang, this...this won't do." Cao Yao Shi, who was distracted and walking away, suddenly snapped back to attention upon hearing these words. Afraid that if it were free, he would have to pay the 300,000 yuan himself, his heart racing, said: "Our pharmacy doesn't..."

  But before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Manager Zhang.

  "Shut up!" Manager Zhang shouted, pointing his finger and saying: "Look at the kind of things you've done! You've ruined the reputation of our Fu Gui Da Pharmacy. Don't come to work tomorrow, we don't welcome employees like you."

  Cao the pharmacist was stunned, thinking of the favorable treatment in the pharmacy, thinking that it's hard to find a job now, thinking that his whole family relies on this salary for a living, and immediately begged bitterly: "Manager Zhang, I was wrong, I know I was wrong, please give me another chance..."

  "It's useless even if you ask me." Manager Zhang waved his hand and hummed.

  Cao Yaoshi immediately turned to Qin Lang and begged for mercy: "It's my fault, I'm the one who should die, I'm shameless. You're a magnanimous person, don't bother with me, this insignificant person, just let me off like a fart, okay?"

  Qin Lang hadn't even had a chance to speak when Cao Yan suddenly became energetic.

  Cao Yan had been waiting for this opportunity, and now that it's here, she wouldn't miss it. She hastily stood up and said: "You think you can be arrogant? You have to see if you're qualified first. Before, you were so arrogant, flaunting your pig face everywhere, asking to be slapped in the face. Now even if you consider yourself a fart, it's useless."

  Qin Lang fell silent as soon as he heard it, and he was also very resentful of this Cao Yao Shi. If he didn't let this person learn a lesson, it would be unfair to the previous arrogance of this person.

  Cao Yaoshi didn't say another word and started slapping his own face, slapping very hard, with a loud "slap slap slap" sound that everyone in the room could hear clearly.

  "Too light, use a bit more force." Zhu Ganglie's shouting, as if the scene of Cao Yaoshi slapping himself in the face had reminded him of something, and his eyes gleamed with a certain abnormal light.

  Cao the pharmacist didn't dare to disobey, and increased his efforts. His originally round face instantly became red and swollen, making his golden fish eyes less noticeable.

  Manager Zhang cast a disgusted glance at Cao Yao, then smiled and said to Qin Lang: "If you feel that it's not enough to vent your anger, just let me know what you want, I'll make sure he satisfies you."

  "Let's have a cup of tea and get on the plane, let's take turns." Zhu Ganglie immediately took over the conversation, and the abnormal gaze in his eyes became even more intense.

  Manager Zhang's eyebrows furrowed instantly, and he looked at Zhu Ganglie with some weirdness, thinking to himself: Could this person have just been released from prison?

  Only those who have been in prison know this professional term.

  This set of means, most of the time, is used by old prisoners to bully new prisoners, except for those who are already very capable. Most new prisoners have to go through this process. After going through this process, the new prisoners become old prisoners and adopt the same approach towards newcomers, thus repeating the cycle. This has almost become one of the eternal themes in every prison.

  Qin Lang naturally wouldn't bother with Zhu Ganglie's words, even though he couldn't understand what this person was saying. As for Cao Yao Shi and the like, small fry that they were, he really didn't have much thought to spare on them. A simple warning would suffice; clinging to it too tightly would only make him lose his own dignity.

  He waved his hand at Cao Yao Shi and said, "Enough, stop it."

  Cao's eyes lit up as if he had been granted a great amnesty, and he hastily said: "You...you're willing to forgive me?"

  "Whether or not I forgive you is unimportant, what's key is that you correct your attitude." Qin Lang said calmly.

  Cao the pharmacist nodded his head like a small chicken pecking at rice, his attitude was so sincere that it couldn't be any more so. He then hastily went to see Manager Zhang. Seeing Manager Zhang's expression soften, he finally let out a sigh of relief in his heart, knowing that for now, he had passed this test.

  Qin Lang turned his gaze to Manager Zhang, "No need for free, but I won't spend extra money either. Let's just stick with the 200,000 yuan, what do you think?"

  Manager Zhang was willing to compromise, he would have liked to pay more if it meant satisfying this young master and turning a bad situation into a good one. However, seeing Qin Lang's expression, he knew that if he mentioned "free" again, he might irritate the young master, so he hastily nodded and said: "Alright, alright, let's go with 200,000."

  Zhu Ganglie, who was exuding a kind of perverted excitement all over his body, fell again as soon as he heard the price agreed upon. He held the bank card in his hand and wished he could become invisible, so that no one could see him.

  Unfortunately, he couldn't hide. So as soon as Qin Lang's voice fell, Cao Yan, who had just vented her anger, fixed her gaze on him and said, "Go pay the bill."

  Zhu Ganglie's palms were all sweaty, and even the card was dampened. He hesitated and handed over the card, his eyes lingering as if he was handing out a piece of his own flesh.

  Director Zhang took the initiative to take on the task of swiping the card, and soon the transaction was completed. When the card returned to Zhu Ganglie's hands, he felt like his heart was bleeding, thinking that today was really unlucky, and he had clearly met an old friend, but ended up losing 200,000 yuan for nothing, what kind of thing is this?

  As the commotion subsided, the people around also dispersed gradually.

  Hao Wei and Manager Zhang stuck to Qin Lang's side. Manager Zhang said to Qin Lang, "I don't know what to call you yet?"

  "Qin Lang!" Qin Lang said calmly.

  The speaker is insincere, but the listener is sympathetic.

  Director Zhang and Hao Wei heard Qin Lang's name, immediately showing a look of surprise, the two people almost thought of Wang Shengchang's wife surnamed Qin at the same time.

  This association made the two of them think that Qin Lang was a relative of the provincial governor's wife, and this relationship couldn't be any closer, a true princeling.

  In an instant, Hao Wei and Manager Zhang's enthusiasm for Qin Lang increased several times.

  "Mr. Qin, today you lost face in our pharmacy, it's all my responsibility. I don't know if you can give me a chance to make it up to you, let me be the host and set up a table of apology wine? It just so happens that this reporter Hao is also here, we might as well not miss the opportunity to get acquainted, everyone has a drink and becomes friends, what do you think?"

  Qin Lang also understood the human emotions and worldly affairs, let alone this Manager Zhang who was in charge of the pharmacy. Leaving a relationship for future use when needing medicine might still be able to find this person, so he didn't plan on making things too difficult for him. He said: "I have something else today, no need for an apology drink, it's just a small matter, no need to escalate to this level."

  Manager Zhang was slightly disappointed, but immediately took out his business card and said: "This is my business card, I'm Zhang Huidong. If you need me for anything in the future, just let me know."

  Qin Lang nodded and accepted the business card.

  Hao Wei also hastily pulled out his business card and introduced himself. Qin Lang treated him equally, taking the card as well.

  At this time, Cao Yan and Zhu Ganglie walked over together. Cao Yan said: "Xiao Lang, what's with the package?"

  Qin Lang smiled and handed over the package from the convenience bag.

  Cao Yan received the package, and the tense emotions that had been weighing on her heart suddenly vanished.

  Manager Zhang and Hao Wei saw this scene, feeling a bit inexplicable, but both of them were wise enough not to speak out of turn.

  Cao Yan immediately opened the package and her face changed greatly because the package was empty, there was no DNA identification report, nothing at all.

  "What's in the bag?" Cao Yan's face was pale, staring fixedly at Qin Lang, her eyes gleaming with a hint of madness.

  Qin Lang shrugged and said lightly: "When I got the bag, it was just an empty bag."

  Cao Yan's eyes widened in anger, while Zhu Ganglie beside her immediately flared up with rage, reaching out to grab Qin Lang's collar and cursing: "You're asking for death."

  "What are you doing?" Manager Zhang blocked Zhu Ganglie's hand at the first time, his powerful body was not something that Zhu Ganglie could withstand. With a casual push, he pushed Zhu Ganglie back, causing him to stumble.

  "Friend, judging from your words and actions, you haven't been out of prison for long, have you?" Manager Zhang narrowed his eyes and stared at Zhu Ganglie, coldly saying: "If you don't want to be locked up again, it's best to show your true colors."

  Zhu Ganglie's face changed as soon as he heard it, and he stared at Manager Zhang in shock and uncertainty, not daring to make another move.

  At this moment, a prison song "Iron Window Tears" floated out of Zhu Ganglie's pocket. "Iron gate, iron window, iron chain, I lean on the iron window and look outside, how beautiful is life outside, when can I return to my home..."
