Chapter 37: Determined to Go All Out

Long Jianfei felt a mix of emotions upon hearing this promise. Once, he had a complete family with both a son and a daughter; now, only he remained.

Yan Yalan had already returned to the Yan family in Longcheng with her son, while Long Jianfei was left alone.

"Thank you for your understanding, Elder. I will be strong." Long Jianfei said to the old man in front of him. Long Wanshun nodded with satisfaction, feeling relieved by the young man's performance.

"This might be a bit unfair to you, but this is all we can do for now."

"It's okay, Fifth Uncle, please rest well, I'll leave first." After speaking, Long Jianfei turned and left.

Long Wanshun then picked up the phone to contact his grandson Long Yiqing, saying seriously: "Yiqing, speed up the acquisition of the Zhang Group. As for the Zhao family, the family will send people to propose marriage for you and Miss Zhao Yuan'er."

Long Yiqing, who had just woken up from his sleep, although his head was still a bit dizzy, agreed. "Don't worry, Grandfather, I know what to do."

After hanging up the phone, Long Yiqing's expression became angry, and he growled in a low voice: "Lin Yu, the account between us hasn't been settled yet." Then he fell into long contemplation.

On the other side, Lin Yu took a taxi home in Miao Street and saw Li Xueying standing in front of his Zhongcaotang with a lady from afar.

"You're finally back, hurry and open the door, my feet are sore from waiting," Li Xueying urged as soon as she saw Lin Yu.

Lin Yu opened the door to let her in, and Li Xueying immediately began to look around. "This shop is not bad, and there is a small courtyard in the back."

Lin Yu ignored her; he knew this woman's visit definitely didn't bring anything good. As expected, after resting for a while, Li Xueying began to talk about conditions.

"How do you plan to compensate for breaking my son's arm?"

Lin Yu continued to tidy up the shop, only responding faintly: "How do you want me to compensate?"

"Transfer this shop to me as compensation for my son," Li Xueying demanded.

Lin Yu shook his head. "The shop cannot be given to you."

Li Xueying became even more energetic upon hearing this. "You must agree today, otherwise you'll be in big trouble! Lawyer Wang, explain it clearly to him."

At this moment, the lady who had been standing next to Li Xueying spoke: "Hello, I am Lawyer Wang Suya, representing Mr. Zhang Bin. If a lawsuit is filed, you will face at least five years of criminal responsibility..."

However, Lin Yu looked at her with a playful smile and said calmly: "Do you know that you will die in three days?"

Wang Suya was stunned for a moment and retorted angrily: "Mr. Lin, please mind your words."

"I'm just telling the truth. Three days later, you will definitely be in life-threatening danger," Lin Yu warned seriously.

Wang Suya wanted to maintain a professional attitude, explaining: "I am here to discuss compensation and inform you that Mr. Zhang Bin is preparing to take legal action."

Nevertheless, Lin Yu's gaze lingered on Wang Suya. He not only noticed her beauty but also perceived her poor physical condition.

Wang Suya's body had an indescribable discomfort. This pathological state was not like conventional diseases that could be detected by hospital instruments.

Modern medicine relies on visible symptoms and scientific equipment; only when the body sends out obvious alarms can problems be diagnosed.

But Wang Suya's situation was unusual. In the terms of ancient medicine, her state was close to "withered," as if the fire of life was gradually extinguishing, and the final result seemed to be inevitable decay. However, there were no signs of this on the surface.

Lin Yu faced Wang Suya, his tone serious and direct: "You will indeed be in danger in three days; this is not a joke. If you don't believe me, you can sue me, and we can discuss right and wrong after the legal procedures start. Now, please leave here."

Li Xueying responded with a cold sneer, leaving the shop with contemptuous words: "Who would care about this kind of place? If it weren't for selling it for money, I wouldn't have come. Since you won't cooperate, we'll see you in court and wait to go to jail."

Lin Yu then turned to Wang Suya, gently reminding her of her recent physical changes, and urged her to contact him if she felt anything wrong in the coming days.

Wang Suya took the business card Lin Yu handed her, which simply had his name and contact information on it. She gave a disdainful smile, questioning whether Lin Yu really had the abilities he claimed.

Lin Yu did not boast of being a divine doctor, only saying he was someone who could perceive life and death.

These words made Wang Suya feel that this person was extraordinary. Although he was low-key on the surface, the temperament he exuded was a trait only top figures had.

Therefore, she paid extra attention to Lin Yu, thinking that the woman who could attract Zhang Yuru should not be an ordinary person.

Wang Suya warned Lin Yu about the legal responsibilities he might face; if he insisted on not compensating, he might face long-term imprisonment. But Lin Yu seemed not to care, just saying lazily: "Sue me first, then we'll talk."

When Wang Suya and Li Xueying went to the court to prepare for action, they encountered an unexpected situation: the court informed them that they could not accept the case.

This situation was extremely rare, meaning Lin Yu had forces or relationship networks behind him that could not be ignored.

Finally, the staff member returned to explain, confirming Wang Suya's guess: the case required higher-level confirmation, implying that Lin Yu was associated with an important figure.

"Mr. Lin Yu will not face legal proceedings due to special reasons. If you have suffered losses and believe compensation is needed, we can apply to the higher authorities for reasonable compensation."

When Wang Suya heard the eight words "not accepted, compensation provided instead," she felt curious and surprised about Lin Yu's background.

As a lawyer, she had never seen such a way of handling things; neither allowing a lawsuit nor promising compensation showed Lin Yu's extraordinary influence.

Li Xueying, Zhang Bin's father, expressed dissatisfaction after hearing that Lin Yu could not be sued.

"Call your leader! My son is the brother of Zhang Yuru, a well-known female entrepreneur in Huacheng. Why can't we sue the person who hit him?"

However, the staff member insisted that this was a mutual fight incident, belonging to the category of civil mediation, and suggested they go to the neighborhood committee or public security department to solve it; the court did not handle such small matters.

Li Xueying still wanted to argue, but was stopped by Wang Suya.

After leaving the court, Li Xueying complained that her daughter Zhang Yuru's status in Huacheng should have allowed her to be exempt from such restrictions.

Wang Suya knew things were not simple and decided to investigate Lin Yu's background, wanting to find a legal way to obtain evidence to support a possible lawsuit.

Facing Li Xueying's request—that Lin Yu not only be punished but also go bankrupt—Wang Suya understood that this was an almost impossible task.

But she had already accepted the case and the corresponding lawyer fees, determined to go all out. "Aunt Mu, please believe me, I will be responsible to the end."

After sending Li Xueying away, Wang Suya took out Lin Yu's business card and dialed the number on it. "Mr. Lin Yu? I have time now, is it convenient to meet you to talk about the condition?" ===== CHAPTER 38 =====
