Divorce Only Makes a Son-in-Law Stronger-Chapter 60, have someone kill him

"Hahaha, today really is a good day!"

"Who’s to say it isn’t? We actually stumbled upon an incredible stroke of luck!"

They watched as Lin Fan and his two companions walked toward the outer courtyard, their departure finally announced by the roar of a car driving away.

Outside the main hall of the inner courtyard, the pharmaceutical tycoons exchanged glances, unable to resist bursting into smug laughter.

Who would be foolish enough to genuinely cooperate with Lin Fan? Not to mention giving up four billion yuan in orders from the Medicine Procurement Conference. Just forgoing a tenth of the profits from our main drugs every year would amount to an astronomical sum in the long run!

The initial plan had been to string Lin Fan along with empty words and then find a way to swindle the formulas from him in private. Who would have thought that the brute, for all his strength, was just a simple-minded fool?

"Hmph, a verbal promise isn’t worth shit!"

"Now that we have the formulas in hand, doesn’t anyone want to knock Lin Fan’s arrogance down a peg or two?"

"It must have been Mr. Wang Sr.’s shocking kneel! A greenhorn like Lin Fan just couldn’t handle that!"

At the praise, the smug crowd all turned to look at Mr. Wang Sr.

"I only knelt out of gratitude for the Divine Dragon Detox Powder in his hands," Mr. Wang Sr. said, his old face flushing slightly. "It was a gesture of thanks to Medical Sage Lin Aochang."

Then, with a look of pride, he flicked the prescription in his hand.

"Lin Fan is still too young. This time, we old-timers have taught him a lesson."

"With our status, why would we teach a junior for free? Consider these prescriptions his tuition fee!"

"Hahaha, Mr. Wang Sr. is right! The most important thing now is to rush production based on the formulas, verify that they work, and be the first to file the patents!"

The crowd’s eyes glinted with ridicule as they all voiced their cheerful agreement. Someone even raised his voice, shouting his concerns that Lin Fan might beat them to the registration.

"Old Meng is right," Mr. Wang Sr. said, his heart burning with eagerness. "Let’s all head to the Wang family’s pharmaceutical lab. I’m in a good mood today and willing to personally oversee the process for everyone."

Without another word, he hurried toward the back courtyard of the old mansion. Seeing this, the others joyfully clutched the prescriptions in their hands and followed.

"Patriarch, what should we do with Su Mengqing and her people?" a steward asked in a low voice, hurrying to catch up.

"Send Su Gang to the authorities. If he needs to go to jail, he’ll go to jail. Release the other three and kick them out!" Mr. Wang Sr. waved his hand impatiently, never breaking his stride. At this moment, the Divine Dragon Detox Powder was the only thing on his mind. Why would he care if Su Mengqing and her family lived or died?

「After a while.」

In the pharmaceutical lab in the back courtyard of the old mansion, one burst of excited laughter followed another.

"It’s a success! The Song family’s Ferocious Strengthening Pill is a success!"

"Hahaha, the Fang family’s Heavenly Glow Moisturizer is a success, too! The whitening effect is practically instantaneous!"

"The Meng family’s Moonlight Lung Soothing Cream also worked! Lin Fan is truly a living Bodhisattva! Hahaha!"

"Heh heh, I’d say he’s more like a cash dispenser sent by the God of Wealth!"

Under the personal supervision of Mr. Wang Sr., a dozen of the Wang family’s pharmacists skillfully produced samples of each family’s proprietary medicines. After trying them out on one another, the various tycoons were so overjoyed that their faces were crooked with delight. The effects weren’t just satisfactory—they far exceeded expectations. It was the kind of success that could make you wake up laughing from a dream.

"My Wang family’s Divine Dragon Detox Powder is the true king of medicines! It’s truly worthy of being the Medical Sage’s unique, miraculous remedy!" two senior pharmacists exclaimed, their faces flush with ecstasy as they wiped blood from the corners of their mouths with their sleeves.

They had just been repeatedly taking poison to test the medicine. Although the process had been unpleasant, the effects of the Divine Dragon Detox Powder were nothing short of miraculous. It had suppressed the poison and alleviated their symptoms in the blink of an eye.

"The Medicine Procurement Conference in four days is when our nine families will finally regain our glory," Mr. Wang Sr. declared, his face glowing as he accepted the Divine Dragon Detox Powder sample as if it were a priceless treasure. "By then, with these new medicines, what’s to stop us from routing those northerners?"

At his words, the room fell silent. The men looked at one another, a mix of resentment and embarrassment in their eyes. For the last twenty years, the pharmaceutical representatives from the North had almost always dominated the companies from the Southwest provinces. Haicheng, despite being known as the Medicine Capital, had been beaten so badly it was powerless to fight back. It was a complete disgrace to the locals.

"Mr. Wang Sr., I believe we can definitely do it this time!"

"But what if Lin Fan gets furious and gives the formulas to Yuandao Pharmaceuticals to produce?"

"And that kid is so arrogant! He might just publicize the whole affair and let those northerners laugh at us!"

Some clenched their fists, while others looked worried. A few frowned deeply and shook their heads.

"Lin Fan is a menace. He cannot be allowed to live." Mr. Wang Sr.’s eyes darkened, and his old face twisted into a ferocious scowl.

He thought of that wastrel who had burned the Bixia Pill formula. He remembered being tricked by Lin Fan into believing he had actually swallowed a poison needle. He recalled the abject humiliation of kneeling at Lin Fan’s feet, begging desperately.

BANG!

His old face burned with shame. Mr. Wang Sr. slammed his hand on the table, startling everyone into looking at him.

"In my opinion, Lin Fan should be just about out of formulas... so let’s send him to meet his mother for a family reunion!" he declared with a cold, sinister sneer. "And don’t forget, we aren’t the only ones who want Lin Fan dead!"

Hearing this, the men in the room exchanged glances, their eyes suddenly lighting up.

That’s right! Lin Fan, that damned cur, had single-handedly destroyed the Black Tiger Hall’s main base! What’s more, he had personally killed Chen Heihu’s only son! In all of Haicheng, who hated Lin Fan more than that underworld emperor? Who wanted him dead more?

"As long as Lin Fan is silenced forever, the Song family is willing to put up ten million to support Lord Hu!"

"My Fang family is willing to do the same!"

"And the Meng family!"

The tycoons chimed in one after another, a murderous glint in their eyes. Lin Fan’s skills were impressive, and keeping him around was a disaster waiting to happen.

It would be better to use Chen Heihu to get rid of that dog for good. His death is the only clean solution.

"Good. Since everyone is willing to put up the money, we can be sure Chen Heihu won’t hesitate to spend whatever it takes to hire a more formidable high-level Martial Artist to deal with Lin Fan," Mr. Wang Sr. said, satisfied with their reaction as he nodded in approval. "Let’s go! We head to the Medical Association building immediately and register the patents for all our medicines!"

The moment he finished speaking, the tycoons roared in agreement. Clutching their formulas and medicine samples, they excitedly left the Wang family estate and drove off.

「At this moment.」

Inside a private hospital room, a new bed had been added by the window.

Su Mengqing and Yang Tingting lay on their respective beds, looking across at Zhang Meili on the other side of the room. All three wore expressions of grief and anger, and no one said a word.

Fortunately, Su Gang’s injuries were so severe that he remained unconscious and immobile. He was granted medical parole by the relevant authorities, sparing him from being locked up. And so, in this spacious ward, the four of them lay neatly in their beds, creating a scene of eerie harmony.

"It’s all your father’s fault! Su Guang, that damned gambler! If it weren’t for him all those years ago, how could our Su Family have ever gotten mixed up with that jinx Lin Fan!" Zhang Meili cursed, breaking the silence. She pulled the blanket over her head and began to sob.

"Mom, what good does blaming him do? Our Su Family... we’re completely ruined because of Lin Fan..." Su Mengqing replied, her face ashen as she shed tears with a bitter smile.

Nearby, Yang Tingting shrank back, not daring to utter a sound, though her eyes shifted covertly.

The Su Family is basically done for. There’s no benefit in sticking by Su Mengqing anymore. It’s time to start thinking about my next move...

The buzzing of a phone interrupted her thoughts. She turned her head and saw Su Mengqing’s phone vibrating vigorously on the nightstand. When her gaze settled on the caller ID, however, Yang Tingting’s eyes widened as if she’d seen a ghost.

"Director Su, it’s... it’s your dad, Su Guang, on the phone!"
