Divorce Only Makes a Son-in-Law Stronger-Chapter 272 - 271: Ten Billion Compensation!

"Oh my god, could it be Lin Fan coming?"

"Damn it, when did our Shen family ever owe him money? This is blatant extortion, taking advantage of our misfortune!"

"Lin Fan, damn you! Are you really bullying the Shen family like this?!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Qingqiu was so shocked he trembled violently, nearly collapsing onto his wheelchair.

The rest of the people in the room were both shocked and angry, cursing loudly.

However, none of them dared to refuse Lin Fan’s visit.

Their eyes flickered with fear and anxiety!

"Looks like I’m quite popular. Everyone’s still up this late, waiting for me."

In the next moment.

A calm voice came from outside the hall.

Everyone’s expression changed, and they glanced at each other.

Immediately, Lin Fan, accompanied by Wang Meng and two others, completely ignored the Shen Family’s bodyguards who were retreating step by step.

They walked into the hall as if no one else was there!

"Lin Fan, why are you here again? When did our Shen family owe you money?!"

Seeing the crowd of people, all with their heads down and not daring to speak up.

Shen Qingqiu was so enraged he couldn’t stop swearing, and he pushed his wheelchair forward with a sullen face to question.

"Your Shen family may not owe me money, but Shen Changlong owes these sufferers an explanation."

Lin Fan gave Feng Cui and her nervous son a reassuring look.

He turned his head, expressionless, and pointed toward the entrance of the mansion.

"Shen Changlong shielded Ying Rufeng back then, causing the Hulin Guard warriors who sacrificed needlessly not even to be recognized as heroes."

"That old bastard is already inside. You’re his son; do you think I shouldn’t come to you?"

These words left everyone dumbfounded.

Shen Qingqiu’s pupils shrank drastically, nearly biting his tongue in shock.

Damn it, when it rains, it pours.

Lin Fan, you scoundrel, always ready to kick someone when they’re down.

Must you dig up all of Shen Changlong’s dirty laundry?!

"Lin Fan, those are old, trivial matters. What’s the point of bringing them up now?"

Shen Qingqiu’s face turned unpleasant as if he had eaten a dead fly, and he spoke with restrained anger.

"Back then, it was Wang Meng who led them to disobey military orders, retreating mid-battle and becoming deserters. That’s a hard fact!"

"To put it bluntly, they deserved their fate. What does it have to do with my father?"

"He was lenient enough not to treat them as deserters, showing great mercy and clemency! And now you’re here making trouble, do you have no sense of reason?"

This argument was reasonable, and those present nodded in agreement.

"Shen Qingqiu, are you kidding me? The Shen family speaks of reason?"

Wang Meng laughed in disbelief, his fierce eyes reddened with anger.

"If your superior forced you to lead a team to certain death, knowing it was the wrong decision, would you obey?"

"Hmph, you used to be a soldier, don’t you understand that a soldier’s duty is to follow orders?"

Shen Qingqiu also laughed, eyes filled with disdain.

"Fine, I disobeyed orders back then, but I was not a deserter or a coward!"

"I led my brothers in a breakout from the flank, creating a retreat for the main force."

"Why should Ying Rufeng take the credit? Why deliberately distort the facts and blame us for the defeat?!"

Wang Meng was thoroughly enraged, clenching his fists and roaring hysterically.

"You ask me, who should I ask? I don’t understand your damned affairs. If you have the guts, go to the higher-ups and overturn the case!"

Shen Qingqiu flushed red, being questioned.

He flipped his eyes and sarcastically jeered.

"Wang Meng, don’t waste your breath on him. When Old Ye submits the incriminating materials tomorrow morning, we’ll see how long they can keep up their pretense."

Seeing Wang Meng beyond furious, on the verge of losing control.

Lin Fan reached out to press his shoulder, shaking his head.

Right now, Shen Changlong is already cornered with numerous charges, hard to recover from.

No need to stir up extra trouble over unnecessary matters.

"Wait, Lin Fan, clarify yourself. What do you mean? Are you secretly scheming again?"

Just at that moment.

Shen Qingqiu’s expression changed, and he shouted angrily with tension.

How vicious, how damn wicked.

No need to ask, clearly Ye Yunjing, that old bastard, has also turned traitor!

Though he used to be under Lin Fan, he was quite shrewd.

Under Shen Changlong’s command, he flourished and acted like one of their own.

Who would’ve thought, in these troubled times, he’d jump out eagerly.

Does he also want to step on the Shen family and add fuel to the fire?

Damn, there are traitors among the people!

"Do I need to scheme? Shen Changlong is clearly dirty, it’s only right for him to face retribution."

Lin Fan, expressionless, pulled Liu Yueguang, who was trying hard to stand tall, closer.

"Cut the crap, pay up in front of the victim’s representative."

"Don’t wait until everything is investigated, by then, the Shen family might fall, and even your underwear will be confiscated!"

As soon as the words fell, the hall was in an uproar.

Everyone looked uneasy, desperately signaling to Shen Qingqiu.

It makes sense; if compensation is given in advance now, it might help Shen Changlong’s case.

Besides, the Shen family doesn’t lack money; consider it spending money to avoid disaster!

"How much do you want?"

Faced with countless imploring glances.

Shen Qingqiu only felt a stifling sensation in his chest, waves of anger.

He suppressed the urge to harshly refuse, gritting his teeth as he asked.

"Not much, just fifty billion for now... oh, Ah Fu, you’re here too, so make it a round number, pay fifty billion for Ying Rufeng as well."

Lin Fan glanced at Ah Fu, who was hiding in the corner, afraid to speak, and shook a finger.

Wha-what?

A full hundred billion altogether?

You really dare to ask, why not rob a bank!

Even though for the Ying and Shen Families, this amount is just a drop in the ocean.

But such a huge demand still infuriates people.

Clearly treating people as easy targets for extortion!

"Lin Fan, are you fucking crazy? It’s just dozens of dead low-level warriors, are they worth this price?"

"Lin Fan, I advise you not to go too far! Our two families have been patient enough, don’t push us to the breaking point!"

"Hmph, our families haven’t fallen yet, don’t get too smug, be careful the sky may rain on the rampant!"

Even though they were quite wary of Lin Fan.

Everyone in the hall was infuriated, raising their voices angrily.

Even Feng Cui was taken aback, staring at Lin Fan, eyes full of pleading.

"Anyone who dares to say one more word, I swear I’ll tear them apart? My brothers died defending the country, life is priceless!"

Wang Meng was furious, his roar was like thunder.

Suddenly drowning out the swearing voices!

"You all think a hundred billion is too much? Fine, didn’t you promise me to crawl on your knees to the Imperial Mausoleum for the funeral? Seems like you haven’t fulfilled that promise yet."

Lin Fan’s gaze was icy, pointing back at the door.

"If you don’t want to pay, then continue crawling on your knees for me!"

"Otherwise, one by one, I, Lin Fan, will not show mercy, and none of you will be spared!"

As soon as these words were said, the place fell silent.

Everyone’s face tensed, glancing at each other.

The pain of crawling on their knees, they’d rather die than experience it again!

"Forget it, Qingqiu, let’s consider it a charitable act from the Shen family."

"Hmph, isn’t it just a mere fifty billion? Our Ying family can afford it, no need to be so confrontational..."

Even with bitterness in their hearts, everyone had to change their tone, persuading Shen Qingqiu and the others.

"...Fine, I’ll pay this money, but Lin Fan, you must promise not to cause trouble over this again!"

Shen Qingqiu’s cheeks twitched violently.

After a moment of silence, he reluctantly nodded.

Ah Fu leaned in close to several Ying family elders, whispered a discussion, and then also looked at Lin Fan, nodding in agreement.

They didn’t want Lin Fan, that bastard, to stay any longer either, quickly transferring the money.

"Alright, I’ve received the money. Consider it a way for the two families to accumulate some virtue for their descendants."

After a while, Lin Fan’s phone vibrated, signaling the bank deposit notification.

He quickly glanced, satisfied with a nod.

Feng Cui, with a look of disbelief, and Wang Meng, swaggered out.

Leaving everyone in the hall frozen in place, they dared to take a long breath only after a while.

Someone wiped the cold sweat from their forehead.

Others suddenly realized, feeling a dampness spreading from their crotch.

Some timid women, covering their faces and crying with fear!

Thud!

Shen Qingqiu collapsed into the wheelchair, his face ashen.

A deep sense of helplessness enveloped him completely.

Making him so furious he wanted to roar, wanted to shout at the sky!

"Damn it, does my Shen family look like a public restroom to you! Come as you like, leave as you wish?"

Bang!

He was unforgivably angry, his face burning hot.

Never thought someone could successfully extort a hundred billion from the esteemed Ying and Shen families one day!

His chest churned with blood, feeling like his lungs were going to explode.

Shen Qingqiu suddenly grabbed a teacup from the table, smashing it to pieces on the ground.

"Figure something out, damn it, all of you figure something out, I want Lin Fan dead!!"
