Jonathan finally arrived in Pegasus City. He was quite astonished to see the towering high-rise buildings and the cacophony of honking horns. The aroma of food teased his hungry stomach.
Amidst the hustle and bustle, Jonathan stood stiffly at a crossroads, torn between finding the address of the Buana family or looking for food first. But before he could take a step, a crowd of people caught his attention.
He stared in the direction of the crowd forming a large circle.
In the middle of the road, a middle-aged man was convulsing, foam coming from his mouth. The atmosphere was panicked. People just watched and exclaimed, not knowing what to do.
Then, a handsome young man appeared, dressed neatly and wearing a shiny gold name tag.
"I'm Doctor Alexander from Pegasus City Affiliated Hospital," he said.
Upon hearing there was a doctor, the crowd made way to facilitate treatment.
Alexander was incredibly confident; he took out a syringe and injected the dying patient.
Jonathan, who was observing, shook his head slowly. "Wrong meridian, and the medicine isn't suitable either."
But when he said this, a woman looked at him scornfully. "You're not a doctor. Really, life must be uncomfortable if you don't comment on others," she said mockingly.
A young man also taunted him. "Which bum is this pretending to know everything?"
Doctor Alexander, who heard this, turned his head after finishing and looked Jonathan up and down. His clothes were simple, his hair was disheveled, and his bag only contained a strange package. He was clearly a nobody.
"What do you know?" Alexander sneered. "This is a professional matter. Don't interfere. Go away, go beg somewhere else!" he said, waving his hand.
The people around laughed upon hearing Doctor Alexander's words aimed at Jonathan. They seemed to agree. They hurriedly joined in, waving their hands to shoo him away.
Jonathan ignored the impolite mouths around him. "The method you used is indeed wrong, and what I said is correct," he said confidently.
Alexander puffed out his chest proudly and said, "I am a doctor from Pegasus City Affiliated Hospital. If I can't cure him, then my title as a Doctor is worthless. I handle things like this all the time. Look, he's already cured."
The man's convulsions stopped, and the people immediately praised Doctor Alexander as a great doctor.
"Yes. Do you see that? Open your eyes wide." Someone spoke, and it was quite hurtful to hear.
Alexander looked at Jonathan with disgust. How could someone dressed in rags dare to criticize him? "And you? Can you cure him? You can only comment, right?"
The people around also looked at Jonathan with contemptuous gazes. To be able to enter Pegasus City Affiliated Hospital, one must have an extraordinary educational background and ability. Yet, Jonathan looked more like a homeless person.
"Me? Of course I can!" Jonathan replied casually.
"Tch. What, are you a god? If you say 'can,' then you can? It's not that easy. You should get a higher education to be smarter," Alexander continued to mock and taunt him, not forgetting to point to his own head.
Even though he was being driven away and ridiculed, Jonathan remained calm.
He walked leisurely, ordered some food, and said to Alexander, loud enough for everyone to hear, "That patient will vomit in one minute, and his convulsions will get worse."
He was actually on his way to propose to the Buana family, but after witnessing this incident, he decided to help. His master had once said, "Saving a life will make you remembered."
Whereas this doctor didn't seem to have the ability to save anyone.
He wondered how this guy even got his Doctor title.Jonathan was perplexed.
Jonathan paid no mind and began to enjoy the breakfast that had arrived on his table.
Just as Alexander was basking in the praise, the patient's body suddenly arched violently, he vomited profusely in all directions, and his heart stopped beating.
The people around immediately panicked.
Jonathan still looked calm, as if he had known this would happen.
Alexander began to panic. He had actually gotten into Pegasus City Affiliated Hospital through backdoor channels, and he had wanted to show off his skills here, but instead made the situation worse. If this were investigated, his job could be in jeopardy.
Doctor Alexander suddenly turned pale. He glanced left and right, then shamelessly approached Jonathan. "There's no other way, I have to use him as the scapegoat for this problem," he muttered to himself.
"You said earlier you knew how to treat him, right? Prove it now if you really can."
Jonathan, calmly sipping hot tea from a small roadside stall, turned his head with a lazy smile. "Earlier you insulted me, and now even when asking for help you speak like that. Do you think I'm someone easy to use as a scapegoat?" he stated firmly.
The crowd was stunned to hear Jonathan's refusal. Some even said Jonathan was just a arrogant bum. "Given a chance to treat someone, and he doesn't even know how to be grateful."
Doctor Alexander gritted his teeth and immediately said, "As long as the patient can be saved, I'll pay whatever f*e you ask for."
Jonathan did need money to buy things for his proposal to the Buana family, so he immediately said, "20 million," short and concise.
"He's really crazy, charging an unreasonable price even for helping someone." Again, voices of condemnation came.
But Alexander immediately agreed. "As long as he can be saved, never mind 20 million, even 200 million is no problem." Although his mouth said this, in his heart he still didn't believe Jonathan could cure the patient. How could he lose to a homeless person? But most importantly this time, his reputation would remain intact if Jonathan failed. A sly smile spread across his face.
Amidst the crowd, an old man dressed simply watched Jonathan with narrowed eyes. Beside him, a young woman in a blue dress looked on hopefully. "We should leave here."
"Let's wait a little longer. Who knows, he might really be able to save that man," the woman wanted to stay and watch. "If he can really do it, maybe Grandfather can be cured too."
But the old man thought the woman was foolish. He said, "If that person really had the ability, how could his life possibly be like this."

Roselin turned her head, arms folded across her chest, a sneer etched on her face. "That was just a fluke, Grandpa. It was just a coincidence that he managed to please Master Anderson before. But his real ability? Huh, absolutely zero."Yorgi nodded slowly. Roselin's answer didn't entirely convince him, but it was enough to slightly soothe the simmering frustration in his chest.Roselin's eyes landed on Amelia, who was sitting beside Jonathan. The girl was laughing softly, looking comfortable. Jonathan even calmly reached for a napkin and casually wiped the corner of Amelia's mouth; the movement looked so natural and gentle. As if the two were already accustomed to such closeness.For some reason, Roselin immediately felt a surge of heat rise in her chest. Her eyes narrowed. "Since when are they that close?" she muttered angrily.She still didn't understand why a man like Jonathan could make a girl as graceful as Amelia feel so at ease. Her heart couldn't accept it. Even though she he

"Jonathan!"The voice, full of rage, exploded from Yorgi's mouth. He stepped quickly, grabbing Jonathan's arm as he tried to leave. "Just who do you think you are, huh? Just because you have a little skill and managed to save Old Master Caresta, you think you're so great now?"Yorgi's eyes blazed with the fire of wounded pride. Behind him, Roselin stood with a contemptuous expression, arms folded across her chest."At best, you were probably just given a few coins as a thank you," Yorgi sneered. "You think with that you can challenge the Buana Family? You're not even worthy of being called our opponent!"Jonathan merely looked at Yorgi emotionlessly, his gaze flat yet piercing. Before he could respond, Roselin's voice quickly followed. "You heard him, didn't you?" she said sharply. "Next time you show up in the same place as me, I won't let you off as easily as today."Roselin's face hinted at a determination to humiliate Jonathan given a second chance. However, instead of being intim

Amelia immediately shook her head quickly and raised her hands. "Everything here must be so expensive, I don't want it. I just want to look.""If your brother says it's okay, why be hesitant? Consider it a gift from me!""No, Brother. I still have the necklace from Grandma."Jonathan could only smile, impressed by Amelia's steadfastness. "Alright. But if you change your mind later, just say the word."After circling part of the exhibition room, Jonathan and Amelia paused in front of a white vase with a finely painted blue dragon. But before they could examine it further, a soft voice called out."Amelia!"Amelia turned quickly, her face immediately lighting up. "Melani!"From the opposite direction, Melani arrived with James and a few other friends. Amelia immediately hugged her best friend. Even though they had just gone through a heavy ordeal at the Holiday Club, a reunion like this felt soothing."You could come too?" Amelia asked, her eyes sparkling.Melani nodded, smiling happily

After the minor incident at the hotel entrance, Jonathan's name was finally found on the VIP guest list. Even one of the security supervisors who arrived later bowed respectfully and ushered them in without another word. The guards who had looked down on them earlier could only bow their heads in silence, ashamed of their previous attitude.Upon arriving in the main hall, Jonathan turned and asked Amelia, "Are you tired? Do you want to rest?"Amelia quickly shook her head, her eyes shining. "Not at all, Brother. Actually, I really want to look around this place. I never even imagined I could come to a place this luxurious."Jonathan gently patted the top of his beloved sister's head and smiled. "Good. You should get used to it. Sooner or later, environments like this will be where you stand."Amelia didn't understand why Jonathan said that. "What do you mean, Brother?"But Jonathan just winked slowly, offering no answer. He stepped forward first, letting the question hang in the air.

"Excuse me, Grandpa, could I take a look at that Blue and White bowl for a moment?"The old man's steps halted. He turned, his wrinkled eyes looking at Jonathan with curiosity and caution. He weighed the bowl in his hands for a moment, then slowly stepped closer. "Do you want to buy it, Son?" he asked, his voice heavy yet sincere. "If so, I must tell you first, the price is non-negotiable."Jonathan smiled warmly. "I just want to take a closer look. If it's as good as I think it is."Jonathan examined it more closely, and with his appraisal skills, he immediately said, "I'll pay 6 Million for it. How about that?"The old man's eyes widened. He took half a step back, as if he couldn't believe his ears. "S-six million?" he stammered. "Son, I'm just a villager. Just because I'm old and don't know the market price, don't try to trick me like this.""No, Grandpa!" Jonathan smiled broa

Jonathan didn't laugh. He just shrugged and said calmly, "The antique world is harsh. Some are willing to deceive, others are willing to be deceived. But the biggest loser is the one who doesn't learn from their own foolishness."The shop owner felt deeply bitter, remembering that his family had been in the antique business for generations, yet in his own generation, he had been completely swindled. The more he thought about it, the more miserable he felt.Meanwhile, the old man had already boarded a bus, shaking his head and muttering to himself, "City life is full of deceit. I want to go back to the village. There, the worst I'll get cheated on is the price of chilies."On the other side.Amelia glanced back and felt a bit sorry for the shop owner. "I feel a little sorry for him, Bro. He looks like he's just been slapped in the face by reality."But Jonathan only gave a faint smile, his expression calm. "That's not pity, Mel. That's called Karma. He's been selling fake items to peop
