Chapter 45: You say you're sick, then you are sick

~8 min read 1,467 words

Yuan Benchu and Yuan Shu both turned their gazes toward Su Cheng.

Su Cheng's face changed, and finally he gritted his teeth and said.

"No, my grandfather died because you prevented Divine Doctor Sun from saving my grandfather!"

"You even joined forces with the Lu Family to deal with my Su Family, never expecting my Su Family to survive this catastrophe!"

Having said that, he showed a mocking expression toward Lin Yang.

Hearing Su Cheng's words, Yuan Benchu let out a cold snort and said to Lin Yang.

"Lin Yang, you have really disappointed me!"

"Although you are no longer the eldest son of the Lin Family, you at least ought to have some face!"

Yuan Shu also looked at Lin Yang with a look of disdain; what Su Cheng said was indeed true.

Aside from relying on the Lu Family's young lady, he is good for nothing!

She spoke up: "Lin Yang, if you think 100,000 is too little, I'll increase it to one million."

Yuan Benchu furrowed his brow, looking at his daughter.

"Daughter, he's now just a cripple, not worth this one million!"

Yuan Shu shook her head and said to Yuan Benchu.

"Just consider it my debt to him."

Seeing this, Su Cheng smiled smugly and said.

"Yuan Shu, I'll cover the one million for you; my Su Family has just secured financing, so we're not short of money."

Saying that, he took out a check, filled in the amount, and then handed it to Lin Yang.

Lin Yang took the check, didn't even look at it, and tore it up.

"No thanks; a mere one million, I still look down on it."

Upon hearing that, Yuan Shu immediately admonished.

"Lin Yang, do you know that an ordinary person might not earn one million in a lifetime, yet you still look down on it?"

"Do you think you're still the Lin Family's young master from six years ago?"

"If you were to leave Lu Linglong now, you probably couldn't even come up with a hundred dollars."

She, thinking she had seen through the truth, spoke to Lin Yang with a condescending air.

"That one million you showed me before must have been given to you by Lu Linglong!"

"As a man, you've been living off a woman's money—do you have any shame?"

At this point, Yuan Benchu interjected, letting out a cold laugh and said to Lin Yang.

"Lin Yang, Su Cheng this time bought several Pu'er tea cakes, with a total price exceeding one million."

"Do you think those few bags of fruit of yours can compare?"

"You need to face reality: Yuan Shu and you will have no further dealings; you're not of the same social standing!"

Watching Yuan Benchu boast there, Lin Yang took Lin Ying'er's hand.

"If that's all, I'm leaving."

Since Lin Ying'er entered the door and was mocked once, she has kept her head down, not saying a word.

Now, hearing Lin Yang say he's leaving, she lifted her tear-filled head.

"Brother, I don't like them anymore."

Looking at Lin Ying'er with her tearful eyes, Lin Yang wiped away her tears.

"Then let's go; from now on we'll have nothing to do with the Yuan Family."

Just before leaving, he picked up a pen and signed the termination agreement.

"From now on, Lin Yang and the Yuan Family will have nothing to do with each other!"

Seeing Lin Yang finish signing, Su Cheng burst out laughing.

"Uncle Yuan, today really is double blessings arriving at once—the Huang Family wants to cooperate with Yuan Shu's company, and Yuan Shu has finally gotten rid of this burden."

Yuan Benchu also laughed loudly: "Looks like my Yuan Family is about to accumulate strength and then burst forth."

At that moment, Yuan Benchu's secretary rushed in.

"Sir, the Young Master of the Huang Family has arrived with people."

Upon hearing that, Yuan Benchu was momentarily stunned and asked.

"Which Young Master?"

"It's the chairman of the Huang Clan Group; I heard he has just recovered from a serious illness, been cooped up at home for a long time, and this time he's come to discuss the cooperation."

Upon hearing that, Yuan Benchu burst out laughing.

"Heaven really is helping my Yuan Family; this cooperation with the Huang Family will surely let my Yuan Family rise to a higher level."

Saying that, he glanced at the fruit placed on the table.

"Hurry up and throw that trash out; don't let it be an eyesore here!"

"Yes!"

As the trash was being thrown out, Lin Yang and his sister happened to be walking out.

Seeing this, Su Cheng couldn't help but burst out laughing.

It was so satisfying; the last time she knelt before Lin Yang, he remained unmoved.

This time, watching Lin Yang flee the Yuan Family in disarray, he felt a sense of gratification.

Watching Lin Yang walk out the door, Yuan Benchu tidied his clothes.

"Yuan Shu, have someone tidy up the house; throw away anything that's dirty."

Lin Yang, who had not yet stepped out the door, heard that and furrowed his brow.

He never expected that Yuan Benchu would harbor such deep hostility toward him.

It seems that the original Yuan Benchu had tried several times to ingratiate himself with him, this junior.

Now that he has become a bereaved dog, he wants to repay the past humiliation.

Thinking of this, he suddenly stopped his steps and looked toward Yuan Benchu.

"As the old saying goes, leave a line when doing things so you can meet later; you're being so absolute, aren't you afraid that someday you'll have to beg me for help?"

Yuan Benchu looked at Lin Yang, let out a cold snort, and said.

"Beg you? My Yuan family now has tens of billions in assets; when would we ever need to beg you?"

"You're nothing but a bereaved dog now!"

Lin Yang, hearing this, slightly raised the corners of his mouth.

"Is that so? I hope you can still be this tough-talking four days from now."

Su Cheng, seeing Lin Yang's smile at the corner of his mouth, couldn't help but be startled.

He had seen this smile when his grandfather had an accident!

Yuan Benchu, seeing this, spoke in a deep voice.

"No need for you to worry; take your trash and leave quickly."

As soon as he finished speaking, the big door was pushed open.

A father and daughter, accompanied by several people, walked into the Yuan household.

Seeing the visitors, the secretary standing beside Yuan Benchu said.

"This is Huang Tiancheng, and the person standing beside him is his daughter."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Benchu forced a smile on his face and also gave his daughter a glance.

The father and daughter, wearing smiles, happily went up to meet them.

"Boss Huang..."

However, they saw Huang Baoshang looking at Lin Yang with a face full of delight.

"Lin Yang, how are you here?!"

Upon hearing this, Huang Tiancheng excitedly grasped Lin Yang's hand.

"Mr. Lin, your life-saving kindness, Tiancheng will never forget."

After a brief excitement, Huang Tiancheng coughed once and returned to normal.

He looked at Lin Yang, then turned his gaze to Yuan Benchu and them.

"Mr. Lin, are you old acquaintances with the Yuan family?"

Lin Yang, hearing this, said indifferently.

"We once were, but he disliked me, thinking I would mess up his place."

"You guys aren't here to discuss business, are you? I won't disturb you."

Having said that, he left without looking back.

After Lin Yang left, Yuan Benchu stepped forward and said.

Mr. Huang is just a con artist; he just tricked me into saying he was sick, and I gave him a stern scolding—such a person isn't worth paying attention to.

Su Cheng also stepped forward at this time, echoing his words.

Exactly, he's just a con artist with no real skills.

Huang Tiancheng's face turned cold as he looked at Yuan Benchu.

A con artist? He saved my life; if he says you're sick, then you definitely are—go to the hospital for a check-up right away.

"As for the cooperation between our two families, let's terminate it."

Upon this, Yuan Benchu panicked and said.

I really don't have an illness; he's truly a con artist—don't believe me? Ask Su Cheng!

Huang Tiancheng glanced at Su Cheng and said with a cold smile.

"Su Family's little brat? I've also heard about your grandfather's matter—wasn't it you lot who killed him by being unwilling to spend money?"

Su Cheng instantly broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead.

At that moment, Huang Baoshang produced a termination agreement.

"Oh, so you summoned Lin Yang here to break off the engagement—what foresight the Yuan family has!"

Huang Baoshang, holding the termination agreement, said with a grin.
