Divorce Only Makes a Son-in-Law Stronger-Chapter 257 - 256: Everyone Has Turned Their Backs!
"Wang Yang, do you think I wanted to save you?"
Under the unusual gazes of everyone watching.
Lin Fan was so exasperated that he smiled, then frowned and shook his head.
"If Mr. Xia Sr. hadn’t spoken, you’d have already met King Yama... But it’s not a big issue, your internal meridians are still severely blocked, so it doesn’t make much difference right now."
What, what?
The trouble within him hadn’t been completely resolved by Lin Fan?
With a bang.
Wang Yang’s eyes went blank, and his whole body trembled violently.
Damn it, Lin Fan, can’t you just finish what you started?
You revived me, so why can’t you just clear my meridians while you’re at it!
Wang Yang’s vision darkened, so angry he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
Earlier, he had the courage to challenge his grandfather.
Because he mistakenly believed he was completely cured by Lin Fan, and wouldn’t have to look at his face anymore.
Now waking up, he was both shocked and furious, regretting it so much that he felt sick.
"You, you’re really going to piss me off!"
Old Wang was also stunned, his eyes flickering with uncertainty.
Coming back to his senses, he gritted his teeth, and kicked Wang Yang to the ground!
"Apologize, apologize to Lin Fan! If you’re going to be stubborn like this, believe me, I’ll kick you out of the Wang Family!"
Old Wang’s eyes showed a hint of pain, then he shouted fiercely on purpose.
He had no choice, his grandson’s life was temporarily saved.
But if he wanted a full recovery, or even to get stronger from the experience and break through to Qi Condensation?
He still needed Lin Fan’s generous help!
"Wang Yang, listen to your grandfather, apologize and bow to your savior, it’s not shameful."
"Yeah, yeah, you almost kicked the bucket earlier, now you’re still breathing thanks to Lin Fan!"
Seeing this, the other military top brass exchanged glances and quickly joined in the persuasion.
After all, they also planned to ask Lin Fan for help to cure their children.
They couldn’t let Wang Yang ruin Lin Fan’s mood!
"I, I..."
Wang Yang’s mouth was bitter, and his face was burning hot.
But facing the strange gazes from around him.
His pride and stubbornness wouldn’t let him yield and apologize to Lin Fan!
"Brother Lin, don’t forgive this ungrateful wolf, if you help him clear his meridians and he breaks through to early Qi Condensation, who knows how arrogant he’ll become!"
"That’s right, let this ungrateful bastard rot, it’s not your problem anyway, it’s all the Shen family’s fault!"
Yang Tianba and a few others were also fuming, urging Lin Fan loudly with stern faces.
Hell, you bunch of dogs, taking advantage of a situation and now acting all self-righteous.
You got lucky unfairly, and now you’re stopping me from enjoying a bit of comfort?
Wait, breaking through to early Qi Condensation after clearing meridians?
Boom!
Even in his rage, Wang Yang couldn’t help but tremble, almost biting his tongue in shock.
Damn it, if Lin Fan could help me, I’d gain such great benefits.
Then who cares about face?
A Qi Condensation Grandmaster in his thirties!
Completely able to stand on equal footing with Zhang Ao and others, receiving the title of War God!
"Yang Tianba, shut up! When has Wang Yang ever been an ungrateful wolf?"
Wang Yang gritted his teeth, shouting viciously at Yang Tianba and the others.
Turning his head, his smile was uglier than crying, he thickened his skin and humbly pleaded with Lin Fan.
"Lin Fan, no, no, Brother Lin, I was wrong, I’m wrong, alright? I should be punished, I bow down and apologize, please help me!"
Slap!
Wang Yang’s eyes turned fierce.
He suddenly raised his hand and slapped himself hard!
Immediately, as if afraid Lin Fan wouldn’t be appeased.
He started kowtowing wildly, and in no time his forehead was red and swollen!
Hiss... What, what’s going on?
Aren’t you Wang Yang always proud, never submitting to anyone?
Now you’re not only apologizing to Lin Fan but even kowtowing so willingly?!
Soon, Shen Qingqiu couldn’t smile, his eyes were full of astonishment.
Mrs. Ying Sr. and Shen Yueli were also staring blankly, as if they had seen a ghost.
Those from the Ying and Shen Families who were secretly gloating couldn’t help but feel dumbfounded, looking at each other.
"Hmph, weren’t you tough just a moment ago?"
"Pfft! Knowing that a couple of needles from Brother Lin could bring you great benefits and you don’t even care about face now?"
Seeing Wang Yang’s complete turnaround in attitude.
Yang Tianba and the others were also stunned, but then became even more infuriated, loudly mocking and ridiculing.
"..."
Wang Yang’s face turned beet red, yet he didn’t dare to retort.
He could only channel his grief into determination, kowtowing even harder.
Old Wang standing behind him was so embarrassed he could hardly stand it and nearly buried his head in his pants.
"That’s truly something rare, haha."
On the side, Grandpa Yu and Mr. Xia Sr. exchanged looks, feeling deeply moved and shaking their heads.
They had to admit, it was quite impressive that Lin Fan could have both Old Wang and Wang Yang admitting defeat one after another.
If they could bring the Wang Family on board and jointly apply to the higher-ups.
It seems there may be significant turns of events concerning the Emperor’s Tomb matter!
Feeling a stir in his heart, Yu immediately waved his hand and gave Lin Fan a look.
"Enough, enough, we have all seen Wang Yang’s sincerity, there’s no need for more kneeling."
"Did you hear that? Hurry up and thank Grandpa Yu!"
Hearing this, Wang immediately felt as if he had been granted amnesty and quickly kicked Wang Yang, loudly reminding him.
"Thank you, Grandpa Yu! Thank you, Brother Lin!"
Wang Yang got up with a flushed face, awkwardly grinning, embarrassed to meet Lin Fan’s gaze.
"Old Wang, you want to ask for help, but you need to offer something substantial in return, right?"
Yu stepped forward, put his arm around Wang’s shoulders, and said with a friendly smile in a low voice.
"Why not join us old friends and lend them a hand too?"
"...Alright, I am willing to risk my reputation to appeal to the higher-ups!"
Wang hesitated for a moment, then nodded firmly and said decisively.
"In that case, we are willing to lend Lin Fan a helping hand too. Let’s jointly submit a petition; the higher-ups will certainly give us face!"
"Lin Fan, saving one is saving, so saving a group is similar. Can you also save our children?"
"Brother Lin, we were wrong too, we apologize to you!"
Seeing this, other military leaders exchanged glances and quickly smiled earnestly, respectfully pleading with Lin Fan.
The affected warriors said nothing further, all falling to one knee on the ground, shouting with faces full of shame!
"What are they doing? Could they really be planning to unite and petition for Lin Suxin’s sake?"
The sudden turn of events left everyone stunned.
Standing by the courtyard gate, the members of the Ying and Shen families turned pale, instinctively looking at Shen Yueli and the group.
Shen Qingqiu muttered, eyes wide with disbelief.
Shen Yueli and Mrs. Ying Sr. said nothing, their faces as if they had swallowed a dead fly.
If Lin Fan agreed to help, people like Wang would surely unite and put pressure on the higher-ups in the Imperial Capital.
No one dared underestimate this power.
It might even make it possible for Lin Suxin to receive an exception for burial in the Emperor’s Tomb!
If that were to happen, their biggest trump card would become an enormous joke, wouldn’t it?
After all, compared to the Emperor’s Tomb, the Ying Family Ancestral Tomb is nothing!
Heart shaking violently, Shen Yueli immediately couldn’t stay calm and quickly walked to the group of Wang and others.
"Everyone, the issue all stems from those Qi Replenishing Pills; there’s no need to ask Lin Fan. Our two families will definitely invite renowned doctors to rectify our mistakes!"
Shen Yueli spoke with a face full of sorrow, extremely earnestly.
"Yes, yes, yes, asking Lin Fan is useless, can’t you see he’s remaining silent?"
"Everyone will only suffer that bastard’s humiliation, it’s better for our two families to solve this issue!"
Mrs. Ying Sr. and Shen Qingqiu also stepped forward, loudly persuading with smiles.
The three of them gazed expectantly at the group of Wang and others.
Yet, in response to them were nothing but rolling white eyes!
"Have your two families solve it? Sounds like we each can’t afford to invite renowned doctors ourselves?"
"Damn it, it’s all that old bastard Shen Changlong’s fault that things reached this point!"
"You still have the nerve to stand up and stop Lin Fan? You think we haven’t tried? If there was a solution, would we be here begging so lowly?"
A group of people exploded, yelling angrily.
Leaving Shen Yueli and the three others red-faced but not daring to utter a word.
"Actually, what they said is not wrong."
In the next moment.
Lin Fan, who had been watching coldly from the sidelines, finally frowned and spoke up.
"The Shen family caused this mess, so they should be the ones to repay this debt... I, Lin Fan, don’t have the habit of cleaning up after others."
The indifferent voice wasn’t loud.
But when it reached the ears of Wang and others, it was no different from thunder exploding!
"Damn, who the hell allowed you to speak, you’ve only gone and angered Lin Fan!"
"Get out, get out! Take those unlucky things and get lost!"
"We will remember this grudge, sooner or later we’ll come to settle it with your Shen family!"
The old guys gritted their teeth angrily, cursing loudly.
Even the affected warriors cast hostile glances at Shen Yueli and the three others.
Evidently, Lin Fan had already begun to soften.
Yet, with just a few words, you blocked the path again!
It’s infuriating, one could die from the anger!
"No, it’s not like that, don’t let Lin Fan goad you into this..."
"All of you are lifelong friends of our two families, do you think we would deliberately harm you?"
Under the fierce gazes fixed upon them.
Shen Qingqiu and Mrs. Ying Sr. both panicked, frantically explaining.
Shen Yueli secretly clenched her fists, feeling her face burning with humiliation, utterly ashamed and indignant.
In the past, she was always glamorous, a standout figure among noblewomen, admired and praised by others.
Yet today, she was made a fool of repeatedly by Lin Fan, suffering continuous humiliation!
"Hmph, had you not brought it up, I would’ve almost forgotten. Seven years ago, it was your two families who goaded us into falsely testifying against Lin Fan, leading to his wrongful conviction!"
Old Wang, with a face full of rage, slapped his forehead fiercely, pointing at Shen Yueli and the three, spitting in fury.
"Now I finally see it clearly, your two families have always wanted to destroy us!"
"Lin Fan, if you are willing to help treat Wang Yang and the others, we will go to the higher-ups to confess, to clear your name!"
Turning his head, Old Wang spoke to Lin Fan, full of shame, cupping his fist in respect.
"...Yes, we are also willing to go confess voluntarily, even if severely punished, it is worth it!"
Other military leaders exchanged a glance, then unanimously spoke up.
The spacious area suddenly fell silent.
Then, as cold water dropped into boiling oil, it exploded like a sudden commotion!
