Chapter Index

    Brothers turn against each other.

    Lin Hao as the father is heartbroken.

    He truly doesn’t understand.

    Why did everything suddenly turn into such a mess?

    In essence, it’s all money’s fault.

    If he didn’t have such wealth, there wouldn’t be so much trouble.

    (Families like the Xingchuan Family, who have always been poor, never have such worries.) “Dad! He wants to kill me, he wants to kill me! How can it just end like this?”

    Lin Jin, lying in the hospital bed, shouted emotionally. If his hands weren’t weak, he might have waved his arms in protest.

    “Shut up! How dare you speak, Lin Jin? You really disappoint me!”

    Lin Hao shouted angrily.

    Indeed, Lin Wei’s recent actions made him angry.

    But Lin Jin’s actions made him feel even colder.

    Because Lin Jin’s approach was harming the entire Lin Family.

    He once valued Lin Jin deeply.

    Now he is equally disappointed in him.

    “Dad…”

    Lin Jin hesitated but felt filled with resentment.

    He thought Lin Hao was favoring Lin Wei.

    He clearly saw Lin Wei was going to kill him, yet only slapped Lin Wei.

    Is his life worth just that slap? “Alright, enough talk. I’ll send you abroad tonight.”

    Lin Hao interrupted Lin Jin, feeling exhausted and fatigued.

    “Dad, so soon? I… my hands are still injured…”

    Lin Jin’s face changed, not wanting to leave in disgrace.

    Because once gone, he might never have a chance to return.

    “If I wait longer, I fear you won’t be able to leave!”

    Lin Hao threw down the words in anger.

    Lin Jin was stunned, then suddenly broke into a cold sweat.

    Earlier, he thought being crippled didn’t matter and wasn’t afraid to die.

    But just now, Lin Wei’s actions showed he was still scared to die.

    So the question is, will Xu Shaochen spare him?

    Certainly not. Now he’s scared.

    “Dad, I’ll leave tonight, I’ll leave tonight.”

    Realizing this, Lin Jin spoke quickly, wishing he had wings to fly abroad.

    “Alas.”

    Seeing Lin Jin like this, Lin Hao felt a mix of emotions.

    ………

    Zhang Yuan, holding the one million deposit, went on a shopping spree, transforming himself.

    Then he took 500,000 in cash to Lingling’s house.

    “Knock knock knock…”

    Standing at Lingling’s door, he knocked without expression.

    The door opened shortly after.

    Lingling’s mom, a sharp-tongued woman, answered.

    “Zhang Yuan? Why are you here again? You’re not welcome. Get far away!”

    Seeing it was Zhang Yuan, Lingling’s mom’s expression turned sour, assuming he was pestering her daughter.

    In her eyes, her daughter was courting a wealthy suitor, way out of Zhang Yuan’s league.

    “I want to see Lingling, ten minutes is enough.”

    Zhang Yuan said calmly.

    Lingling’s mom paused, noticing Zhang Yuan seemed different.

    “Fine, ten minutes. If you ever come again, don’t blame me for being rude, humph!”

    Lingling’s mom pointed at Zhang Yuan, then turned away with disdain.

    Zhang Yuan smiled playfully and followed her in.

    On the sofa, both Lingling and her brother sat. Seeing Zhang Yuan, their faces changed.

    “You dare come back? Give 500,000 as a gift and couldn’t do it. Where’s your courage to enter again!”

    “Do you know, because of you, my BMW-driving prospective brother-in-law broke up with my sister!”

    Lingling’s brother put down his video game and cursed Zhang Yuan.

    Lingling also looked coldly at Zhang Yuan, saying nothing, but her eyes said it all.

    Zhang Yuan didn’t speak, just tossed his briefcase on the coffee table.

    “Inside is 500,000.”

    After he spoke, the family froze.

    “No… What did you say? Where did you get 500,000?”

    Lingling was the first to react, looking incredulous at Zhang Yuan.

    500,000 to the rich is like a watch’s price.

    But for the average person, it takes over ten years to save.

    “Damn! It’s really 500,000.”

    As Lingling questioned, her brother eagerly opened the bag.

    Inside, the cash dazzled their eyes.

    How many have seen 500,000 piled before them?

    “Quick, Lingling, aren’t you stunned? Go make tea for young Zhang.”

    Lingling’s mom’s attitude changed, smiling like a blooming flower.

    She didn’t care how Zhang Yuan got the money; it was enough it was in his possession.

    After all, the BMW-driving suitor was a bust. Earning 500,000 was worthwhile.

    “Yes, sister, brother-in-law brought the gift. Be polite and treat him well.”

    Lingling’s brother shamelessly said, eyes glowing at the cash.

    “Um… Zhang Yuan, you sit. I’ll make you tea.”

    Lingling finally reacted, standing up.

    “No need. Here’s the 500,000, but I didn’t plan to give it to you.”

    Zhang Yuan said lightly, with a greater playful look.

    In an instant, the lively room was silent.

    “No… Then what do you mean?”

    Lingling’s mom asked confusedly, staring at Zhang Yuan.

    Zhang Yuan chuckled, zipped up the bag, and said to them:

    “I just wanted to show off the 500,000. Now that I’m done, I have business to attend to, so I’ll leave.”

    With that, Zhang Yuan left with the bag, feeling excellent.

    In the room, the three stood stunned.

    Unexpectedly, it was all for nothing.

    “Zhang Yuan, you scumbag!”

    Lingling shouted, face changing color.

    Zhang Yuan stopped, nodded: “Yes, I’m a scumbag. I have 500,000 in the bag, 300,000 in my card, and another 1,000,000 due. It’s enough to qualify me as a scumbag.”

    After speaking, Zhang Yuan opened and slammed the door.

    “I… what, nearly two million? Sister, you’ve dated him so long, did you never know his wealth?”

    Lingling’s brother counted on his fingers, trembling as he spoke.

    Lingling’s face turned paler, “The scumbag tricked me. He never told me he had so much money!”

    “Oh, my dear son-in-law!”

    Lingling’s mom felt heartache and regret.
