Chapter 198: Lin Jianyang's Family Meets Disaster

Police responded quickly; in under ten minutes, the entire club was raided in one swoop.

One wouldn't know unless they looked; but once they did, they were shocked.

Lin Haocheng not only participated in gambling, but also secretly engaged in pimping.

What surprised Lin Meng even more was that, upon hearing that their eldest son had incurred huge gambling debts, Lin Jianyang and his wife felt as if the sky had collapsed.

Moreover, Lin Qianqian added fuel to the fire on the spot, exposing Lin Haocheng's true nature.

Actually, big brother never started any business; with his meager abilities, how could he succeed? He squandered all the money you gave him, and for the past few years he's just been drifting in Jing Shi, running errands for others—he's even worse off than our village's old fool.

The old fool is Lin Jia Cun's village idiot, commonly called the village guardian; his food, clothing, housing and transportation are all managed by the village committee—surely he lives no better than Lin Haocheng?

Moreover, in daily life, Lin Jianyang and his wife often mocked the old fool to his face, ridiculing him as a good-for-nothing who could only be kept like a dog in this lifetime.

And Lin Qianqian compared the old fool to Lin Haocheng, which completely provoked Lin Jianyang and Wang Fang.

Before the police even arrived, the inside was already in utter chaos.

In the heated argument and fight, Lin Jianyang suffered a stroke on the spot and collapsed.

Seeing this, Wang Fang realized that the family's pillar and eldest son had both met disaster; she could not accept it at once.

Wang Fang, whose mind works in strange ways, blamed everything entirely on Lin Qianqian.

"It's all your fault—I said, why did you insist on coming to Jing Shi with your dad these few days? Did you calculate that this would happen? Are you trying to get your brother killed?"

Lin Qianqian never expected her mother to think so badly of her; the purpose of having them come to Jing Shi had been stated clearly over the phone.

Lin Meng owns a large villa in Jing Shi; she merely wanted her parents to come over, hoping to find a way to take the house from Lin Meng's hands, yet her mother claimed she was secretly plotting to harm the eldest son.

"Hehehe, Mom, you're really stupid—no wonder all these years Dad's been cheating outside and you haven't noticed; you're simply hopelessly stupid."

Furious, Lin Qianqian then revealed another earth-shattering scandal.

This time, Wang Fang could no longer contain herself; even as the police led her away, she kept cursing wildly, swearing at every member of the Lin family, and of course not sparing Lin Meng.

However, Lin Meng listened without caring; this time Wang Fang scolded the Lin family's ancestors through eighteen generations, and compared to others, when she got to Lin Meng she actually cursed relatively lightly…

The whole club scene was chaotic, while Lin Meng stood in a corner, watching coldly.

Lin Jianyang was carried out; at this moment his eyes were askew, his mouth crooked, and his consciousness unclear.

Wang Fang shouted and railed like a shrew scolding the street; even though two police officers held her, her body remained twisted like a dough twist, struggling to break free.

Lin Qianqian fared no better—her hair was disheveled, her makeup flying everywhere; besides being beaten by her parents, Wang Fang also spat several mouthfuls of saliva at her.

Seeing her sorry state, Lin Meng felt no sympathy, only finding it laughable and pitiful.

A couple like Lin Jianyang and his wife, who can change their attitude toward their own biological daughter at a whim, are simply selfish and foolish—it's only to be expected.

Watching the four members of the Lin family being taken away, Lin Meng only felt a sense of satisfaction.

Lin Jianyang and his wife, together with Lin Qianqian, will likely be released after a short detention, but that doesn't matter.

Lin Qianqian has completely lost her standing in the Lin family; Lin Jianyang has suffered a stroke; Wang Fang is merely an uneducated, talentless person who relies on Lin Jianyang's wealth to throw her weight around, and now she's spent her last strength.

As for Lin Haocheng, he is bound to eat prison food.

The gambling operation involved huge sums, and on top of that he organized prostitution—his life is essentially ruined.

All this is the result of a single phone call from Lin Meng, and she does not consider herself ruthless for it.

If this family had treated her as a person and shown even a hint of kindness, she would not have gone to such extremes.

Now this shameless family still tries to seize her house and wipe out her line, so she cannot be lenient.

On the way back, Qin Feng called to check on her.

"How are you? Are you alright?"

Lin Meng chuckled lightly, "I'm fine, of course, but my uncle's family has run into trouble—I think I should return to the village and beat gongs and drums."

"Hahaha." Qin Feng laughed loudly.

"I like your personality, but you'd better stay far away from this family; focus on enjoying your own life and don't waste energy on unrelated people."

Lin Meng nodded in response.

"Uncle lives with clarity; hearing you, I never intended to get too involved with them—just that the flies buzzing by my ear eventually annoy me, and now it's finally quiet."

Returning to Jing Shi, Lin Meng didn't rush home but went to the garment market, picking out some decent-quality, not-too-flashy clothes for Ye Xiu and Ye Zhizhi, the siblings.

Ye Xiu has a school uniform for studying, but hearing that the cold season is approaching, those clothes are far from enough to keep warm.

As for Ye Zhizhi, it's even more pitiful; although one can see that Ye Xiu takes good care of her, her clothes have been washed until they're faded white.

According to Ye Xiu, Ye Zhizhi has a frail constitution, sensitive to both cold and heat; despite having done all possible to care for her, the little one's condition keeps worsening.

After buying the clothes, Lin Meng went to purchase some children's nutritional supplements, and then returned.

That day she had intended to give Ye Zhizhi a Return Spring Pill, but she wasn't sure whether such a medicinal pill could be tolerated by an eight-year-old, so she refrained from acting rashly.

At night, Lin Meng stored the items she bought for the two siblings in her third space, waiting for tomorrow's countdown to end so she could immediately send them in—perhaps she would see them again.

Perhaps because she had seen her uncle's family's miserable state during the day, Lin Meng slept exceptionally soundly that night; her grandfather didn't send her a dream, suggesting he basically didn't care about the Lin Jianyang family, which left Lin Meng free of any mental burden.

At the same time, within the city nearest to Yun Tian Sect on the Tian Gang Continent, Ye Fan had already donned a black bamboo hat and set off for the artifact trading fair together with his senior brothers and sisters.

"Junior brother, this is your first time contacting an external trading fair; you must never recklessly expose your materials—if you take a liking to something, discreet trading is the safest; afterward you'll stay by our side to gain more experience."

Song Yun treats Ye Fan very well, and the clan has also sent word urging him to definitely establish a good relationship with this junior brother.

Not only because of that spiritual water called cola, the elders have studied cola and found it to be of top grade among all spiritual waters.

Anyone capable of producing such high-grade spiritual water certainly wouldn't be an ordinary person.

Song Yun initially harbored doubts, after all this Ye junior brother has decent talent yet only earned the status of a menial disciple within the sect, and even his assigned cave dwelling is the lowest rank.

How could such a disciple be seen as anything but ordinary? Evidently, the elders who oversee new admissions to the sect noticed his shallow foundation and lack of any notable background.

But the elders believe that Ye Fan is hiding his talent; surely he has an extraordinary backing behind him!
