Chapter 218: Sealing the Mouth

Wu An gave him a slap.

Chen Long was impotently furious.

Wei Zhen came up and shoved.

Wu An kicked, sending the person sprawling on the ground.

This mother‑son pair are both no good; whatever he does doesn't feel excessive.

Thanks to the single‑patient ward, a little noise draws no one's attention; this is the surgery wing, where the suffering often sounds like wailing ghosts.

Chen Long shouted in disbelief, "Wu An, you really hit me, you're finished, I'm telling you, you're finished!"

"I'm going to extort you to death!"

"My head hurts, my wound is still gaping."

Wu An "Slap—slap" gave two more slaps.

Chen Long dared not shout any more, only said bitterly, "Wu An, even if you kill me, I have no money!"

Wu An teased, "Aren't you planning to have Mao Wang compensate? How much do you want?"

Wei Zhen cursed, "That money was paid with my son's life; not a cent will go to you!"

Wu An shook his head, "In that case, we can't continue this conversation."

Chen Long sneered, "There was never much to talk about anyway."

"I'll tell you plainly, you won't get a single cent."

"I've investigated; even if you sue me, I'll lose, and without money I can't enforce anything."

Wei Zhen pointed at the door and told him to get lost!

She called him a beggar begging for alms!

Wu An pulled out his phone: "Then we're done talking. I can only forward the chat where you looked for someone to buy sleeping pills to Shen Fang."

"Let her talk to you."

What?

Chen Long's face changed dramatically, his whole body trembling: "Impossible, I already deleted it."

"I heard WeChat chat logs can't be recovered."

"Wu An, I'm not stupid; don't try to trick me."

Wei Zhen praised: "Son did well this time, left no evidence for anyone."

Wu An could barely bear to watch.

He was nauseated by this mother‑son pair.

They say dragons beget dragons, phoenixes beget phoenixes; a mouse's son knows how to dig holes—indeed, not a bit wrong.

Chen Long saw Wu An silent, felt unhurried, and bragged: "Any other tricks, feel free to unleash them."

"If not, get out quickly."

"Wait, maybe if you beg me, I might be in a good mood and spare you something."

Wei Zhen wore a resentful, poisonous expression!

She had already decided that as soon as Wu An left, she would call the police.

She ignored him and kept stirring the pot, especially since the son's face was now swollen.

If it escalates, who knows who will pay whom!

Wu An, annoyed by his listening, slapped him, told him to shut up, and threw the printed chat record onto his face.

"Read it first, then talk to me."

Chen Long picked it up, glanced at it, and his complexion turned pale instantly.

It was indeed his chat log.

That thing couldn't have been forged.

"How do you have this?" Chen Long's eyes widened as he said in horror: "It's you; you designed all this, right?"

"It must be you!"

"Selling me sleeping pills, leading me to clash with Shen Fang like this!"

"Wu An, you're literally a devil!"

He was extremely agitated!

Wu An was speechless.

You really know how to fill in the blanks; with such talent, why not write novels?

He treats him like a god.

If he had such meticulous, ruthless scheming, his previous life wouldn't have been so miserable.

No wonder Chen Long made such connections; last time Wu An really scared him.

Last time he was staying fine in the hospital, then was suddenly taken away; if his family hadn't spent money to smooth things over, he might still be in detention now.

Now Wu An pulls out this big killer, leaving him no room to think.

Wu An was too lazy to explain.

"Seeing you so scared, you should know what these chat logs can do."

Chen Long said nothing.

Wei Zhen snatched the printed paper, glanced at it, then angrily slapped Chen Long, complaining: "What's wrong with you?"

"If Wu An hands this over, you're finished!"

"Are you stupid? You haven't had enough of the last lesson!"

Chen Long, grimacing from the blow, also complained: "Wu An plotted against me; what can I do? I'm also desperate."

"You still have the face to hit me; if it weren't for you and Uncle last time, forcing me to pretend to be sick, I wouldn't have been caught!"

"Now Wu An wants money, so just give it to him!"

Wei Zhen looked at Wu An, forcing out a strained smile: "Wu An, if we give you the money, will you not hand over these things?"

Wu An nodded.

Wei Zhen walked over, lifted the chair that had fallen to the side, and ingratiatingly said, "Sit, sit."

Wu An sat down, crossing his legs.

"Besides the 40,000 yuan, I can give you an extra 1,000," Wei Zhen said with a flattering smile on her face, "You must swear to Goddess Mazu."

Wu An laughed: "The seal fee is only 1,000?"

Wei Zhen replied, "1,000 is not a small amount."

Wu An shook his head, "I tell you, I am the most devoted to Goddess Mazu."

"Swearing to Goddess Mazu over this matter would only dirty her ears,"

"So I want the seal fee to be 10,000."

Wei Zhen inhaled sharply, not expecting Wu An to make such a bold demand.

"That's too much."

Wu An pointed at Chen Long: "Your son said that all this was my scheming against him. Think about how much mental effort I expended, plus others' hard‑earned money; 10,000 yuan is really not much."

"He's talking nonsense."

"I took him seriously."

"Mom, he's clearly trying to trap us, just give it," Chen Long interjected impatiently.

"Fine." Wei Zhen hesitated, nodded, "Then I'll go get the money."

Wu An called Yu Kai Lang.

He needs Yu Kai Lang to act as a witness; otherwise, if he overcharges the 10,000 yuan seal fee, Wei Zhen could later accuse him of extortion.

Even though it's highly unlikely, he still has to guard against it.

If Yu Kai Lang is present, that extra 10,000 yuan can serve as compensation, and later if Wei Zhen tries to cause trouble, she'll have to be more cautious.

On the other side.

Yu Kai Lang sighed repeatedly, Lao Liu looked annoyed: "Always whining, get out of sight, don't let me see you."

"It's the Chen Family that doesn't pay, not you."

Yu Kai Lang said, "The Chen Family refuses compensation; I really feel sorry for Wu An."

Lao Liu: "Then you repay on behalf of the Chen Family."

"How could I have that much money?"

"Then get out."

"Master, don't you have any solution?"

"If I had one, I could still watch you whine every day." Lao Liu took a sip of tea to lubricate his throat, and said irritably, "If they don't repay, only Wu An can sue; it's beyond our control. So, Wu An, what do you say?"

"He told me not to interfere, saying he'll find a way," Yu Kai Lang shook his head, "We have no means, how could he have any?"

He still has that layer of skin, but Wu An is just an ordinary citizen.

Actually he had more to say: he worries that Wu An's plan might be illegal.

The phone on the table rang; Yu Kai Lang looked a bit stunned: "It's Wu An calling."

Lao Liu said, "Answer it."

Yu Kai Lang answered, heard Wu An say the Chen Family is willing to repay, asking him to be a witness; he was stunned, took a while to react, then hurriedly replied that he'd be there right away.

After hanging up, he wore a suspicious look: "Wu An actually got the Chen Family to repay."

"He says he moved them with emotion and reason, making the Chen Family suddenly repent."

"He's now at the hospital, wants me to go once to be a witness."

"You listen to his nonsense," Lao Liu, with a disbelieving face, was quite curious what Wu An actually did: "Stop standing there, go quickly."

Yu Kai Lang rushed out, his expression hurried; he was somewhat worried that Wu An might act recklessly.
