Chapter 144: Losing Money

The seated Xiao Fangfang looked toward Shi Fengyun.

"I'm the one who hit him, so what?"

Yun Tianfei gritted his teeth and said to Xiao Fangfang.

"You dare hit me? My mother will never let you off!"

"Yo, little mom's treasure came looking for a beating again?"

Shi Fengyun heard this and snorted coldly.

"Filth, what are you saying my son is?"

Xiao Fangfang's face sank, she walked up to her and said.

"What did you call me?"

Before Shi Fengyun could answer, Xiao Fangfang raised her hand and delivered a slap.

"This slap is to teach you that a dog's mouth can't spit out ivory."

Then, backhand, another slap.

"This slap is for your failure to discipline your child."

As Shi Fengyun seethed, about to erupt in anger, Xiao Fangfang said calmly.

"I'm Xiao Fangfang; if you can take on the Hundred Flowers Group, go ahead and lay hands on me."

Upon hearing 'Hundred Flowers Group,' Shi Fengyun jumped in fright.

She sized Xiao Fangfang up and down, her heart beginning to flutter with anxiety.

"Mom, how could someone like Manager Xiao possibly appear here?!"

"She must be an impostor; could our luck really be this bad?"

Hearing her son's words, Shi Fengyun felt they made sense.

But he still felt uneasy, and said to his son.

"Take out your phone and look; there's plenty of news about Manager Xiao's appearances, so there must be photos."

Yun Tianfei, upon hearing this, hurriedly took out his phone to check.

When he saw Xiao Fangfang on the phone screen and compared her to the one before him, his heart shuddered.

Seeing her son silent, Shi Fengyun furrowed her brows and said.

"Why aren't you speaking?"

She snatched the phone, took a look, and her heart turned cold halfway.

She looked again at Xiao Fangfang, forcing out a smile.

"Manager Xiao, actually I was just joking with you earlier."

"Please, as an adult, don't hold a grudge against us little folk; just let us go."

Xiao Fangfang heard this and said with a cold smile.

"You weren't saying that just now."

Yun Tianfei, upon hearing this, immediately pointed at Lin Yang.

"I was cursing him; this guy deceived my junior schoolmate—I was cursing him, not you."

Xiao Fangfang, upon hearing this, looked enlightened.

"That's how it is."

Seeing Xiao Fangfang like that, Yun Tianfei and his mother had just relaxed when they saw Xiao Fangfang raise her hand and deliver another slap.

"Mr. Lin saved my family's life, and he's also a shareholder of the Hundred Flowers Group!"

"Insulting him is insulting the Hundred Flowers Group!"

"My Hundred Flowers Group will launch a commercial attack on your family."

As soon as these words were spoken, Shi Fengyun and her son were frightened.

Such a commercial attack by the colossal Hundred Flowers Group could only end with their family declaring bankruptcy.

Now, Yun Tianfei and his mother both panicked.

"Manager Xiao, Mr. Lin, please spare us; making money is not easy for us."

The Yun Tianfei mother and son, accustomed to arrogance and domineering behavior, now saying 'making money is not easy' is utterly laughable.

"Get lost quickly, don't whine about being broke in front of me; if you don't scram, I'll bankrupt you right now."

Hearing this, the mother and son hurriedly took their people and ran.

After they left, Lin Yang said to Du Juan.

"See? This is the real boss."

Having witnessed Xiao Fangfang's overbearing nature, Du Juan lowered her head, not daring to speak.

Xiao Fangfang gave Lin Yang a white-eye and said.

"I came in good faith to give you information, and you repay me by slandering me."

"Niangchang, let's go."

Before leaving, Xiao Fangfang said.

"You'd better be careful lately; I heard the Han and Shen families are contacting people overseas."

"Okay, got it."

After Xiao Fangfang left, Du Juan looked at Lin Yang in astonishment.

"You're not a doctor, are you? How do you know someone as important as Manager Xiao?"

"Because I saved her daughter."

Hearing Lin Yang's explanation, Du Juan looked enlightened.

In the blink of an eye, Du Juan had stayed three days at Lin Yang's place.

During these three days, she helped Lin Yang gather medicinal herbs, studied observation, listening, questioning, and palpation, and whenever she had free time, Lin Yang pulled her to practice calligraphy.

As it neared noon, Lin Yang said to Du Juan.

"My younger sister is coming home at noon today; I need to go pick her up, you watch the shop."

Upon hearing this, Du Juan became a little anxious.

"I... I really can?"

"Your basic knowledge is already good; there's nothing you can't do—I believe in you."

After giving Du Juan a bit of a talk, Lin Yang left.

Arriving outside South University, many luxury cars gathered.

These luxury cars were there to pick up either their own daughters or their adopted daughters.

Just as Lin Yang arrived in front of the South University gate, Lin Ying'er pulled Huang Yiyi's hand and came to his side.

"Brother, why are you only just arriving? Because of you, Yiyi has been harassed."

The sweet-looking Huang Yiyi, upon seeing Lin Yang, immediately lowered her head and blushed; she tugged at Lin Ying'er's hand.

"Ying'er, don't say that."

"You're just weak-willed; that's why people harass you."

"Ying'er!"

Seeing Huang Yiyi's shy look, Lin Ying'er teased.

"You're so shy; you must have a crush on my brother, right?"

Huang Yiyi lifted her head and glanced at Lin Yang once; Lin Yang coughed and rubbed his nose.

This made Huang Yiyi's pretty face flush bright red, and she let out a sharp scream.

"Ah, Ying'er!"

The two of them then started playing and chasing each other at the school gate.

During the chase, Huang Yiyi staggered and almost fell to the ground, but fortunately she braced her hand against a roadside BMW X5.

"Yiyi, are you alright?"

As Lin Ying'er stepped forward to show concern, an oily uncle came down from the driver's cabin.

"What bad luck, just parked at the curb and you girls have to scrape it."

"If you've scratched it, can you afford to pay for it?"

While Zhang Kai was cursing, seeing the blushing, cute Huang Yiyi, his eyes lit up.

He sized up Huang Yiyi from head to toe, and immediately a scheme formed in his mind.

"Hey, you guys messed up my car with your roughhousing—how are you going to pay for it?"

For an ordinary-looking girl like Huang Yiyi, just mentioning compensation would surely make her panic.

Then I would raise the compensation amount even higher; she, unable to pay, would be at my mercy.

Just as Zhang Kai had expected, upon hearing this Huang Yiyi immediately grew nervous and hurriedly apologized.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to."

Zhang Kai deliberately put on a stern face and said, "What's the use of an apology? You bent my car door and scratched the paint—at least 200,000 is needed!"

200,000?

Huang Yiyi let out a gasp—200,000 was a figure she dared not even imagine!

"Um, could you make it cheaper? I don't have that much money."

Looking at the meek and submissive Huang Yiyi, Zhang Kai felt great delight, just as he was about to make a lion's demand.

"Where did your car's paint chip off? Wasn't the dent in the door already there? And why would chipped paint cost 200,000?"

"Are you trying to extort money?"

Lin Yang's sudden remark caused Zhang Kai's face to darken.

He sized up Lin Yang, seeing that his attire was also ordinary.

"You poor wretch, what do you know? This is a BMW X5, a luxury car!"

"Just buying it costs over 800,000—what would a little brat like you know?"

"I get it now—you're in cahoots. I'll tell you: either you pay up, or I'll call the police and have you arrested!"

Upon hearing the threat to call the police, Huang Yiyi immediately shouted.

"Don't call the police—we'll pay!"
