Chapter 46: Huang Tiancheng Runs Into Trouble

~7 min read 1,336 words

Seeing Huang Baoshang holding the termination contract, Yuan Benchu's expression changed and he said.

He's just a stray dog; how could he be worthy of our Yuan family?

Besides, this is a private matter; it has nothing to do with our two families' cooperation.

Upon hearing this, Huang Tiancheng showed a completely indifferent expression.

Because you are short-sighted, my Huang family does not want to cooperate with you.

At this moment, Yuan Shu spoke.

Are you doing this just for Lin Yang?

Huang Tiancheng glanced at him and said, 'Is that not allowed?'

Having said that, he turned and left.

Huang Baoshang looked at the termination contract in his hand, thought for a moment, and walked up to Yuan Shu.

This woman fears nothing except short-sightedness.

Saying that, he glanced at Su Cheng.

No, what's truly frightening is blindness—ignoring a flood dragon that could overturn rivers and seas, and instead seeking out stinking fish and rotten shrimp.

Having said that, he put down the termination contract and left the Yuan family.

Huang Baoshang's words left Su Cheng and Yuan Shu with ashen faces.

Yuan Benchu also looked toward Su Cheng and spoke in a low voice.

Didn't you tell me he knows the Lu family's eldest miss?

Didn't you say he has no background and is just a stray dog?

What on earth is going on? The Huang family, for his sake, has terminated our cooperation!

Su Cheng remained silent for a long time before finally uttering a sentence.

I don't know.

Seeing Yuan Benchu about to lose his temper, Su Cheng hurriedly said.

Uncle Yuan, don't be angry; although the Huang family won't cooperate with you, I can introduce the Han family to you!

Upon hearing 'Han family,' Yuan Benchu raised his eyebrows.

The Han family? They're a first-rate clan; could we cooperate with them?

Upon hearing this, Su Cheng laughed and said.

I know the Han family's eldest young master; he's my close buddy. Let's set up a gathering sometime and have a meal together.

Yuan Benchu thought for a moment: the Su family had once been on the brink of bankruptcy, and it was the Han family that stepped in to save them.

Su Cheng's relationship with that Han family young master must be close.

Thinking this through, his expression immediately eased.

He smiled and patted Su Cheng on the shoulder.

Su Cheng, just now Uncle Yuan got angry because of Lin Yang; don't take it to heart.

Upon hearing this, Su Cheng also smiled and said.

No matter what, it's all Lin Yang's fault; how could I blame you?

The two exchanged smiles, chatted a few more words, and then Su Cheng left.

After Su Cheng left, Yuan Benchu said to Yuan Shu.

A man should be like Su Cheng—broadly sociable and adept at dealing with people.

In my view, ten Lin Yangs still couldn't match one Su Cheng.

Listening to his father's words, Yuan Shu frowned slightly.

Dad, we have the termination contract in hand; shall we show it to Grandfather when he returns?

Yuan Benchu hesitated for a moment and said, 'We'll talk about it then.'

Meanwhile, Huang Tiancheng caught up with Lin Yang, earnestly pleading three times before Lin Yang finally got into his car.

Mr. Lin, I didn't know the Yuan family had been disrespectful to you; that was my mistake. Please give me a chance to make amends.

Lin Yang waved his hand and said, 'I'm not that narrow-minded.'

With those words from Lin Yang, Huang Tiancheng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, Lin Yang suddenly asked.

"Boss Huang, have you gone to buy jade since you woke up?"

Upon hearing this, Huang Tiancheng shook his head and said.

"No, I've been staying at home lately."

Lin Yang thought for a moment, then took out a yellow talisman he had drawn the previous day and handed it to him.

"I see dark energy lingering at your brow; carry this peace talisman with you, and it could save your life at a critical moment."

Looking at the yellow talisman Lin Yang handed over, Huang Tiancheng gave an embarrassed smile.

He has never been fond of talk about ghosts and gods.

His respect for Lin Yang stems from his father and daughter telling him that Lin Yang can control needles with qi, and that Sun Jiacheng is still his disciple.

Furthermore, since Lin Yang saved his life, he feels deep gratitude toward Lin Yang.

Now, seeing Lin Yang hand him the peace talisman, he hesitated a moment before accepting it.

"I'll give you money later."

"No need; it's just a peace talisman."

Seeing this, Huang Baoshang beside them shouted.

"I want one too, I want one too—you said yesterday you'd give me one."

Lin Yang smiled, took out a Peace Talisman and gave it to Huang Baoshang.

"Keep it safe, don't drop it."

Lin Ying'er, sitting to the side, looked at Lin Yang with a pitiful, delicate appearance.

"Brother, what about mine!"

Lin Yang laughed hahaha, took out the fish bearing the drawn Fú zhòu.

"You must wear it on your person; it's far more valuable than a Peace Talisman."

Upon hearing this, Lin Ying'er's eyes instantly curved into crescent moons.

"Still, brother treats me best."

Seeing this, Huang Baoshang pouted her lips and said.

"I also want a jade pendant."

Lin Yang said: "I can draw it for you, but you have to provide the jade stone yourself."

"The higher the quality, the better the effect of the drawing."

Listening to their conversation, Huang Tiancheng gave a dismissive smile.

It seems I will still keep my distance from Lin Yang; those Fú zhòu things sound too illusory.

After sending Lin Yang home, Huang Tiancheng said to his daughter.

"Baoshang, from now on you should have less contact with him; you used to not believe in those Fú zhòu things."

Upon hearing this, Huang Baoshang wanted to say what she had seen that day.

That day, Lin Yang dispersed all the black qi, yet it thoroughly reshaped her worldview.

But thinking of her father being somewhat stubborn, she gave up saying it.

"Dad, I'm an adult now; I know what to do."

Huang Tiancheng furrowed his brows, looking at his daughter.

"It seems your grandfather has been indulging you lately; from now on you should work by my side!"

Huang Baoshang pouted her lips, full of displeasure.

In Lin Yang's home, Lin Ying'er looked toward her brother.

"Brother, Baoshang's dad obviously doesn't believe in you; why did you still give him a Peace Talisman?"

Hearing his sister's words, Lin Yang smiled and said.

"This is doing good to others; I have a decent impression of the Huang family, and that Peace Talisman could save his life at a critical moment."

Upon hearing Lin Yang say that, Lin Ying'er rolled her eyes and said.

"Brother, now that you're back, I feel you've learned a lot of things."

"You can treat illnesses and also draw Peace Talismans."

Lin Yang ruffled her head, laughing as he said.

"There's even more I can do."

"Tch, just pretending to be mysterious."

After the siblings chatted for a while, Lin Yang's phone suddenly rang.

"Lin Yang, my dad had an accident; come to the hospital quickly!"

On the other end of the phone, Huang Baoshang, voice choked with tears, said urgently.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yang furrowed his brows and said.

"Don't cry, I'm heading to the hospital right now."

Before leaving, he instructed Lin Ying'er to wear her jade pendant properly, then went out.

Outside a ward at the Southwest First Hospital.

Huang Baoshang paced back and forth in the hallway, looking anxious.

As soon as she saw Lin Yang appear, she immediately ran up to him.

"Lin Yang, you've finally come!"

Lin Yang walked toward the ward, asking as he went.

"What exactly happened? How did something go wrong just after we parted for a moment?"

Upon hearing Lin Yang's question, a hint of fear appeared on Huang Baoshang's face.
