Divorce Only Makes a Son-in-Law Stronger-Chapter 249 - 248: Having No Choice but to Bow One’s Head
"Shen Yueli, have you gone mad? Lin Fan has harmed our two families so badly, and you still want us to beg him!"
"Sis, are you confused, asking me to beg Lin Fan? You might as well just kill me!"
Everyone in the hall erupted in anger, jumping up and down furiously.
Shen Qingqiu also slammed the tea table, her eyes red, yelling angrily at Shen Yueli.
"Yueli, that bastard is surely waiting to see us humiliated; now you want us to beg him? Isn’t that just offering our face for a slap?"
Mrs. Ying Sr. trembled all over, her body swaying, clearly on the verge of passing out.
"Mom, Qingqiu, why don’t you think about it? The Yuan family’s relationship with Lin Fan in Hai City is unusual, and key figure Yuan Ruohai even takes orders from Lin Fan."
Amidst the fiery and confused gazes.
Shen Yueli wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, her gaze becoming a bit more determined.
"As long as Lin Fan agrees, he can calm the Yuan family’s anger in Hai City, and at worst, ensure Wen Yuan’s safe escape!"
"Moreover, those problematic Qi Replenishing Pills were all crafted by Lin Fan. He definitely has a way to eliminate the side effects!"
At these words, everyone was stunned, unable to help but look at each other.
It’s true, everything was caused by that scoundrel Lin Fan.
Only he who tied the bell can untie it, naturally, he can also resolve it!
But, can we really bring ourselves to actively go and beg Lin Fan?
It’s too shameful, too degrading.
One simply can’t get past this psychological hurdle!
"I know what you’re thinking, feeling Lin Fan has fallen from grace, no longer the illustrious Heavenly Pride War God of years past."
Sensing a shift in those around her.
Shen Yueli took a deep breath, her face sinking.
"But don’t you see, now is a critical time! Our two families are at the forefront of the storm, any slight mishap could lead to total defeat!"
"...Yueli is right, for the safety of Wen Yuan and Rufeng and Changlong, even if it means kneeling before that bastard, it’s what must be done!"
Mrs. Ying Sr.’s expression changed from cloudy to sunny.
Ultimately, she gritted her teeth and nodded heavily, agreeing with Shen Yueli’s plan.
"But, but if Lin Fan stubbornly refuses, then what? Are we not then in for another round of humiliation?"
Shen Qingqiu expressed concern, asking worriedly.
"Planning is within human effort, but achievement is decided by fate. If we don’t act, we can only await doom... moreover, I know what Lin Fan cares most about."
Shen Yueli shook her head, a hint of cunning and a sinister smile in her eyes.
"What he values most now is his mother Lin Suxin’s burial arrangements! How could the Imperial Capital’s Ying family madam be buried in such a shabby place as Hai City?"
"Yueli, you mean... we proactively allow Lin Suxin to be buried in the Ying family’s ancestral grave?"
Someone realized, and exclaimed in shock: "But, but doing so, won’t it be disgraceful for you?"
"Have I not lost enough face today?"
"For Wen Yuan and my father, I, Shen Yueli, am willing to bow to Lin Suxin once!"
Shen Yueli’s expression was rigid, speaking through gritted teeth.
Compared to begging Lin Fan, actually yielding to Lin Suxin was the greatest humiliation!
After all, back then she repeatedly defeated the opponent, even forcing her to die miserably in Hai City.
Who could have imagined, the tables have turned.
Today, we must show the utmost sincerity to a defeated subordinate, who has passed away?
Lin Suxin, oh Lin Suxin, you were truly remarkable.
Raised such a fearsome son like Lin Fan!
Repressed, indignant, unwilling... various emotions surged violently.
Ultimately, simmering into a glint of ruthlessness in Shen Yueli’s eyes.
"Not only do we need to give Lin Suxin a grand reburial, but we must also acknowledge her publicly as the madam of the Ying family head."
"And it must be done swiftly, preventing any deterioration in Wen Yuan’s situation... only then might we move Lin Fan!"
Shen Yueli spoke each word carefully.
Almost like forcing the words through her clenched teeth.
"Alright, since you’re willing to sacrifice your pride, we can’t stand by... Ah Fu! Arrange this immediately!"
Mrs. Ying Sr. responded solemnly, turning to shout orders at Ah Fu, who stood waiting by the side.
"Yes, I’ll arrange it swiftly!"
Ah Fu shivered all over, hastily rushing off.
Seeing this, although reluctant, Shen Qingqiu and the others could only swallow their pride, reluctantly nodding in agreement.
At this moment, in the Xia Family Mansion in Southern City.
"Master, our reunion is such a joy, I’ve missed you so much!"
Lin Fan and his group got out of the car and entered the courtyard, soon seeing a familiar elderly figure quickly coming to greet them.
It was none other than Doctor Jiang, who hadn’t been seen for a few days!
"Lin Fan, is this your disciple...?"
Upon seeing this, Mr. Xia Sr. and Tie Hao were both surprised, looking quite puzzled.
It’s a joke — the other person’s age makes him old enough to be Lin Fan’s grandfather.
How could he shamelessly take Lin Fan as his master?
"Well, he’s sort of a registered disciple."
Lin Fan nodded, briefly explaining, then frowned and stared at Doctor Jiang, who was all smiles.
"How did you find your way here, is it something urgent?"
"Master, you’re really forgetful. Didn’t I tell you over the phone before, that I’m invited to give a lecture at the Beijing University of Chinese Medicine."
"I want to invite you to be a guest lecturer, to support me, hehe!"
Doctor Jiang ignored the astonished expressions of Mr. Xia Sr. and others, rubbing his hands embarrassedly and laughing.
"I can only stay in the Imperial Capital for one more day, so I’m afraid I can’t agree to your request."
Lin Fan hesitated for a moment, but then shook his head.
His identity was too special and had already caused many significant incidents.
He’s already repeatedly broken the conditions set by the high ranks of the Imperial Capital.
If he stays beyond the three-day deadline, people might think he has ulterior motives.
"Isn’t that perfect? It’s at 1 PM tomorrow in the Great Hall of the Emperor’s Hospital University!"
Doctor Jiang slapped his forehead, his smile was crooked.
You should know that his old friend Principal Sun has praised his prized student to the skies.
He even bragged that the Medical Sage Lin Aochang personally guided him before?
Doctor Jiang was somewhat skeptical, but he indeed lacked confidence.
If he could get Lin Fan, the peerless healer, to personally support him?
Tomorrow would definitely be a moment of great pride, a chance to show off in front of his old friend!
"...Alright, I’ll keep the appointment tomorrow on time."
Lin Fan froze for a moment, then nodded, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes.
Emperor’s Hospital University was also his alma mater.
Except he had dropped out angrily and joined the army, displeasing many teachers and leaders of the school.
This time going back, how should he face those old friends?
"Thank you, Master, for honoring me, I’ll take my leave now, see you tomorrow!"
Doctor Jiang was overjoyed and profusely thanked Lin Fan.
Then after bidding farewell to Mr. Xia Sr. and others, he happily walked away quickly.
"You kid, what on earth have you been doing these seven years, how come the people around you all look less serious?"
Mr. Xia Sr. withdrew his gaze and couldn’t help but shaking his head at Lin Fan.
That alluring Wu Miaomiao was one thing, but to have made his ex-father-in-law and Yuan Ruohai his little brothers?
Now even more absurdly, he’s made an old man his registered disciple!
"Who cares if they’re serious or not, as long as they can be used by me, stay honest and refrain from wrongdoing, I don’t bother much."
Lin Fan smiled bitterly, looked at Yuan Youwei and others who came out to welcome him, and immediately couldn’t smile anymore.
His mother’s ashes had been safely returned.
The troubles with the Yun City Shen Family were also completely resolved.
He had dragged the Ying and Shen Families into the mire, avenging the past grudges.
This trip to the Imperial Capital was quite complete, with no regrets left.
But the problem was, with so many girls around him, the more he thought about it, the more troublesome it became...
"Lin Fan, save us, save us!"
The next moment, before anyone could speak.
A dark swarm of people suddenly rushed in from outside the mansion gate.
Leading them was Yu, dressed in high-grade battle attire, dragging a listless teenager who bore a strong resemblance to him.
"This is my biological grandson, named Yang Tianba, currently serving in the Western Theater Command, at a critical stage of promotion."
Yu suddenly reached Lin Fan, grabbed his wrist, and broke down crying.
"Just went to the hospital, found out there’s a brain tumor! It must be caused by the Qi Replenishing Pill given by Shen Changlong three years ago!"
"Lin Fan, Lin Ancestor! You must save Tianba! He’s so young, so talented, his body can’t have any problems!"
No sooner had he said this, than the faces of Mr. Xia Sr. and others changed completely.
Looking around, other bigshots from various theater commands also brought many people.
Clearly, they were people suffering from the side effects caused by Shen Changlong’s Qi Replenishing Pill!
