Great Doctor Without Borders

Chapter 1348 Eating a Big Chunk of Meat
Although Chen Qianfan went bankrupt, fortunately he did not abandon his cooking skills. Even Pu Jian, who was always picky about food, praised him highly and suggested that Chen Qianfan should open a restaurant. He might be able to make a comeback soon.

Xu Chunliang believes that there is a hidden reason behind Chen Qianfan's bankruptcy. He is Xue Renzhong's apprentice, and Qianfan Group may not be his main business. Of course, Xu Dongya, who bought Qianfan Group, is not simple. Xu Dongya was born in a thousand families, and I don't know what means he used to rob Chen Qianfan.

Pu Jian continued to ask questions under the influence of alcohol, but Chen Qianfan did not mention a single word about the details of his bankruptcy.

Among the three, Pu Jian had the worst alcohol tolerance and soon fell asleep next to the heater.

Xu Chunliang and Chen Qianfan continued to eat big chunks of meat and drink big gulps of wine.

Xu Chunliang deliberately asked: "Brother Chen, do you know Xue Anning?"

Chen Qianfan was slightly startled, pretending to be thinking hard: "Which Xue Anning? This name sounds familiar."

"You should have met Ye Qingya's old classmate."

"no."

Xu Chunliang picked up a piece of mutton and stuffed it into his mouth. As he ate, he said, "It smells so good. I originally thought about introducing Xue Anning to you."

Chen Qianfan was secretly alert in his heart. This guy must have said that on purpose. Xue Anning is my godsister. Could it be that he already knows about our relationship? He smiled bitterly and said, "Chunliang, don't. I'm not worthy of her."

Xu Chunliang said: "It's not good enough now, but it must have been no problem when you were worth billions. By the way, are you married or not?"

Chen Qianfan said: "I have been married, but I am single now. With the way I am now, which woman would be willing to be with me?"

Xu Chunliang continued on this topic: "Do you know Xue Anliang?"

Chen Qianfan was basically sure that Xu Chunliang must have known something, and there was no point in continuing to deny it: "Xue Anliang? Are you talking about the history doctor who died a while ago? I know him. When we were building Qianfan Group, we asked his father to come and help with the archaeological appraisal, and he came with us."

Xu Chunliang smiled and said, "You know them, but you don't know Xue Anning?"

Chen Qianfan said, "We are just business contacts. I haven't investigated who is in their family. But now that you mentioned it, I remember that Mr. Xue seems to have a daughter. He mentioned it. No wonder I feel that the name Xue Anning is familiar."

Xu Chunliang picked up the phone in front of Chen Qianfan and called Xue Anning.

When Chen Qianfan saw Xu Chunliang making a phone call, he realized that something was wrong. This guy was really not giving him face. Was he going to expose him in front of him?
Xue Anning quickly answered the phone: "Director Xu, Happy New Year."

Xu Chunliang smiled and said, "Happy New Year, Sister Xue."

"Why did you think of calling me?"

Xu Chunliang said: "I haven't heard from your father for a while. I wonder if he is in good health?"

Xue Anning said: "Thanks to you, I feel much better now."

Xu Chunliang thought to himself that there might not be many people who could cure the Netherworld Cold Poison: "That's good. By the way, I want to ask you about someone."

Chen Qianfan looked at Xu Chunliang with an embarrassed expression.

Xue Anning said: "You go ahead."

"Do you know Chen Qianfan, the chairman of Qianfan Group?"

Xue An Ning said: "I'm not familiar with him, but I've heard of this name. He seems to have had business dealings with my dad in the past. Is there anything going on?"

Chen Qianfan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. His sister's ability to respond was amazing.

Xu Chunliang said: "It's okay, I just haven't seen him for a long time, so I asked around."

Xue An Ning said: "I heard from Qing Ya that you are also in the capital."

Xu Chunliang said: "Yes, I will spend the New Year in Beijing."

Xue An Ning said: "Qing Ya and I have an appointment to have tea together tomorrow. You can come over if you have time. I just happen to have something I want to ask you in person."

After Xu Chunliang agreed, he hung up the phone, looked at Chen Qianfan with a smile and said, "Do you want to go together?"

Chen Qianfan shook his head: "To be honest, I'm hiding from place to place now. I finally had a peaceful year. At the latest, I will have to move to another place the day after tomorrow. It will be troublesome if my creditors find me."

Xu Chunliang said: "How about this, I will give you the money as soon as possible."

Chen Qianfan said: "Don't worry, it's not easy for you to find me, and it's not convenient for me to find you. After you get the money, keep it for me first, and I will find you when I need it."

A sweet snoring sound was heard from the side, it turned out that Pu Jian had fallen asleep.

Chen Qianfan got up and found a torn blanket to cover him, then went to the kitchen to stir-fry some lamb shanks, which was actually a stir-fry of lamb penis, lamb balls and lamb kidneys.

The two continued drinking.

Xu Chunliang said: "Xu Dongya seems to be from a thousand families. Have you been tricked by him?"

Chen Qianfan sighed: "Brother, even if I don't say it, you can guess it. I really can't afford to offend that person. I admit defeat."

Xu Chunliang asked, "After suffering such a huge loss, can you swallow this anger?"

Chen Qianfan asked, "What else can you do? You know you can't win but you still fight him to the death. In the end, you will lose your life." Xu Chunliang said, "Let's not talk about this. Brother Chen, what are your plans for the future?"

Chen Qianfan said: "Let's get through this crisis first. Although Qianfan Group is no longer in my hands, my family's ancestral winemaking recipe is still there. I will get up from where I fell. With this skill, I believe there will always be a day to turn things around."

Xu Chun said conscientiously that your skill might not be brewing wine, but he did not point it out. After all, he had given many reminders today, and Chen Qianfan should have noticed it.

Chen Qianfan must have some secrets, and his secrets are most likely related to the business Xue Renzhong is engaged in. However, he has been with Xu Chunliang for such a long time and has never done anything to harm Xu Chunliang. He once had intentions on Weishan Island Winery, but they were crushed by Xu Chunliang as soon as they showed any signs.

Chen Qianfan estimated that Xu Chunliang had also guessed his secret, but as long as it wasn't revealed, everyone pretended to be ignorant and everything was fine.

Xu Chunliang said: "If you encounter any difficulties in the future, just come to me. As long as I can help, I will definitely spare no effort."

Chen Qianfan said with emotion: "Brother Chunliang, it's worth it for me to know you."

It was already dusk when Xu Chunliang woke Pu Jian up. Chen Qianfan did not let them stay here overnight. The conditions now were completely different from the past. In his words, he was always worried that his creditors would come to visit.

Xu Chunliang called a designated driver, but Chen Qianfan did not come out to see them off.

Pu Jian looked at the closed door behind him and said to Xu Chunliang: "Old Chen is really in trouble, Chunliang, let's help him if possible."

Xu Chunliang said: "I feel like he doesn't need our help."

Pu Jian said: "What do you mean?"

Xu Chunliang said: "He has a wine-making recipe passed down from his ancestors. If he sells it, he can make hundreds of millions."

"What? That thing is so valuable? Stop fooling me."

Although Ye Qingya and Xue Anning are old classmates, they don't contact each other often, mainly because they are in different fields. Ye Qingya's social life is mainly in the calligraphy and painting circles, while Xue Anning is a young archaeologist.

The place Xue Anning invited them to was the Guyi Tea House near the Institute of Archaeology.

The proprietress surnamed Liu, who runs the teahouse, is also an employee of the Archaeological Museum. She has a good relationship with Xue Anning and usually calls her sisters.

As soon as Ye Qingya walked into the Guyi Tea House, she was attracted by the furnishings here. Both the decoration and the garden landscaping reflected the owner's taste.

Xue Anning was still as unkempt as before, wearing the work clothes of the Archaeological Research Institute, and greeted them with a smile: "Welcome to our two distinguished guests."

Ye Qingya said: "An Ning, you really know how to choose a place. This place is so antique and charming."

Xue An Ning said: "It's opened by an old lady of mine. I wouldn't dare invite you to come to an ordinary place."

Ye Qingya smiled and said, "I'm not as out of touch with the world as you think. I'm never picky about beautiful scenery or delicious food."

Xue Anning looked at Xu Chunliang, who said cheerfully, "Happy New Year, Miss Xue."

Xue An Ning said, "Didn't we celebrate the New Year yesterday? Don't be so polite."

Xu Chunliang said, "The more gifts you give, the less blame you will get." While chatting and laughing, he handed Xue An Ning a bottle of medicine.

This bottle of medicine was for Xue Renzhong. Xue Anning understood what he meant and did not refuse. He took it and smiled gently.

He led the two to a private room and sat them down. On the tea table, old white tea was being boiled on a red clay stove. The room was filled with the fragrance of dates, and various snacks were placed around.

Xue An Ning said, "Sit down, let's have some tea first. I specially invited a chef today, let's try his specialty at noon."

Ye Qingya asked: "Isn't this a teahouse?"

Xue Anning nodded and said, "Yes, there is also a kitchen to meet the different needs of the guests, but I brought this chef myself today."

Xu Chunliang heard her emphasize this chef twice, and estimated that his level was quite high.

Taking the white tea handed to him by Xue An Ning, Xu Chunliang said thank you. This thank you even made him laugh. He was indeed too polite today.

Xue An Ning said, "You asked me about Chen Qianfan yesterday. I went back and asked my father about it. They did have business dealings in the past."

Xu Chunliang thought to herself that Chen Qianfan must have asked her to collude with him in private, so she nodded and said, "It's mainly because I couldn't contact him recently. I heard that he had some problems with his business, so I asked around. I hope it didn't cause you any trouble?"

Xue An Ning smiled calmly, "How could that be? I wasn't familiar with him to begin with, but my dad told me that he was a winemaker, doing well in business, and was a generous person. My dad once helped him identify some antiques, but we rarely kept in touch afterwards. Is Director Xu his friend?"

Xu Chunliang nodded and said, "We are also classmates. We both study at Europa Business School. Whenever we come to Beijing for intensive training, we always get together."

Ye Qingya also knew Chen Qianfan, and had just heard about his loss of contact. She was a little surprised and asked, "Did Chen Qianfan's business fail?"

Xu Chunliang said: "He transferred Qianfan Group and I heard that he owed a lot of debts."

Xue An Ning said: "Things in the business world are hard to predict, with ups and downs. Today you may be in the limelight, but tomorrow you may be hiding from others, and the day after tomorrow you may make a comeback."

Xu Chunliang smiled and said, "Ms. Xue's insights are admirable."

Xue An Ning said calmly: "It's just a casual remark. How can it be considered as a true insight? Director Xu, please stop making fun of me."
