Chapter 58

While he was muttering to himself, Lin Yang, under Xiao Fangfang's earnest pleading, had already been taken back home.

When Lin Yang came to the An family again, a middle-aged man who exuded authority without anger was sitting on the sofa.

Although the middle-aged man was dressed in casual clothes, the dignity accumulated over years was not diminished in the slightest.

Now An Ni Shang, sitting beside him, spoke somewhat helplessly.

"Dad, don't always look like you're interrogating a criminal; this is home, not your office!"

Hearing his daughter's words, An Tian Sheng smiled helplessly.

"I'm used to it, I'm used to it."

As Lu Linglong entered, she saw An Tian Sheng looking somewhat surprised.

"Uncle An, how come you're back?"

As for Lu Linglong, An Tian Sheng was also very familiar; hearing his words, he smiled and said.

"With such a big thing happening at home, how could I not come back?"

"After all, whether my daughter can stand up again is a major matter!"

Saying that, he turned his gaze onto Lin Yang.

Facing An Tian Sheng's scrutinizing gaze, Lin Yang remained calm and unafraid, feeling no pressure at all.

"This made An Tian Sheng somewhat surprised; a young man in his twenties meeting him for the first time, actually unaffected?"

Just as he was surprised, Lin Yang suddenly spoke.

"Uncle An, I see some dark qi swirling between your brows; you must have encountered a tricky case lately."

Upon hearing that, An Tian Sheng furrowed his brow.

As for talk of ghosts and gods, he naturally did not believe it.

He, who had originally been somewhat pleased with Lin Yang, felt his impression drop considerably.

Seeing that, Lin Yang also did not get angry.

He walked up to An Tian Sheng, took out the Peace Talisman he had prepared earlier, and handed it to him.

"Please keep this; it could save your life at a critical moment."

Looking at the Protective Talisman in Lin Yang's hand, An Tian Sheng gave a cold snort.

"No need."

"If you don't take it, I won't treat the ugly monster's illness."

Saying that, he gave a glance to An Ni Shang.

An Ni Shang, called the ugly monster, looked as if she wanted to bite off two chunks of Lin Yang's flesh.

However, seeing Lin Yang give her a glance, she immediately put on a resolute face and said.

"Dad, if he doesn't treat me, I'll jump off the building right away!"

Upon hearing that, An Tian Sheng immediately took Lin Yang's Peace Talisman and put it into his chest pocket.

"I've taken it, Ni Shang; you can't scare me!"

Then, gritting his teeth, he looked at Lin Yang.

"You'd better not be deceiving my daughter!"

Lin Yang gave a noncommittal smile and said to Xiao Fangfang.

"Aunt Xiao, prepare a room for me; I need to concoct medicine."

"Okay!"

Xiao Fangfang brought Lin Yang to the guest room; Lin Yang readied the herbs he had obtained earlier and began to melt them.

With his current Foundation Establishment Late Stage strength, he could already melt herbs remotely.

While Lin Yang was melting the herbs, An Tian Sheng asked Lu Linglong.

"Linglong, honestly tell me how you got to know this kid."

"With my years of experience solving cases, my intuition says this kid is definitely not an ordinary person!"

Hearing An Tian Sheng's words, Lu Linglong's face showed a hint of pride.

"Mr. Lin is certainly not an ordinary person; his medical expertise is such that even Divine Doctor Sun would want to take him as a teacher."

"Although he rarely makes a move in the martial way, a single finger injured my second uncle; the martial way can reach the divine."

Watching Lu Linglong speak of Lin Yang, uncontrollable pride shone in her eyes.

Xiao Fangfang teased: "Linglong, why are your eyes sparkling?"

"I didn't expect there to be someone in our Southwest with vision like yours."

Being teased by Xiao Fangfang, Lu Linglong's face instantly reddened; she spoke with a bit of shyness.

"I'm telling the truth; you can all look into this."

An Tian Sheng hesitated a moment and asked: "Is he just an ordinary person?"

Lu Linglong hesitated and said: "He is one of the survivors of the Lin Family fire six years ago."

Those words made An Tian Sheng's brow furrow.

Six years ago he had not yet attained the position of bureau chief, but he also wanted to go investigate that fire.

But he was stopped by a force; that force was not in the Southwest, yet it could remotely control everything there, showing its formidable power.

Just as everyone fell into silence, Lin Yang walked out holding a bowl.

In the bowl was a blackish mass, yet it also had a faint fragrance.

Looking at the contents of the bowl, Xiao Fangfang asked in puzzlement.

"Lin Yang, white peony and snow lotus should be white; why is yours blackish?"

"It must have some other ingredients added; Aunt Xiao, rest assured, this medicine is greatly beneficial for the ugly monster."

Speaking, he walked up to An Ni Shang and squatted down.

He scooped up a glob of blackish medicine and smeared it on her face without ceremony.

In no time, half of An Ni Shang's face was covered in black.

In twenty minutes, wash it off and you'll see the result.

"Really that miraculous?"

Xiao Fangfang, after all, is the chairwoman of Baihua Group, and she also has some knowledge of scar removal.

She even commissioned research, but it had no effect at all on An Ni Shang's scars.

For ordinary scars, it takes a long time to see any slight effect.

Upon hearing Lin Yang say it would work in twenty minutes, she was quite surprised.

Facing Xiao Fangfang's astonishment, Lin Yang smiled and said.

"You'll know in twenty minutes."

Now everyone's curiosity was piqued, and they waited quietly.

As soon as twenty minutes passed, Xiao Fangfang eagerly took her to the restroom to wash her face.

"Wow. It really works!"

In the restroom, Xiao Fangfang gasped.

As she pushed An Ni Shang out, the scars on An Ni Shang's face were visibly faded.

At this moment, An Ni Shang's look at Lin Yang was full of complex emotions.

This man before her seems carefree, yet every word he speaks comes true.

I estimate it won't be long before I can walk like a normal person.

At this moment, Xiao Fangfang suddenly said.

"Lin Yang, your scar removal is so effective; can you give me the formula?"

Worried Lin Yang might misunderstand, she quickly waved her hand and said.

"Give me the formula, and I'll give you shares of Baihua Group!"

"I believe your scar-removal product, once released, will be a hit across the land!"

Amid Xiao Fangfang's anxiety, Lin Yang smiled and said.

"Sure, but it's not medicine I prepared; it might only be a tenth as effective."

"No problem, as long as it works!"

An Ni Shang also said: "Exactly, this will definitely be a bestseller!"

Seeing the women in the room all gathered around Lin Yang, An Tian Sheng felt annoyed.

He glanced over, looked at Lin Yang, and said.

"Lin Yang, I heard from Linglong that you're also quite skilled in martial arts; I'm itching to try—how about we spar?"

Lin Yang, hearing that, scratched his head and said.

"That's not a good idea; what if I get hurt?"

An Tian Sheng thought Lin Yang feared he'd be hurt, and he laughed and said.

"How about this: I'll let you have three moves; after three moves I'll attack; if you can't block, you can concede."

An Ni Shang, upon hearing that, immediately shouted.

"Dad, what are you doing?"

Xiao Fangfang, upon hearing that, also said: "If you do that, I'll bring you meals to work every day!"

As soon as those words were spoken, An Tian Sheng's face darkened.

But seeing his daughter and them standing with Lin Yang, he gritted his teeth and pretended not to hear.

At this point, I need to regain some face!
