Chapter 501: Come Closer

“Let’s go to the hospital.”

After dealing with Zhao Shanhe, Xu Shaochen told Long Yi, who was driving.

Half an hour later, they arrived at their destination.

Xu Shaochen easily found out Lin Kai’s hospital room.

When he arrived at the room, Lin Wanxue was peeling an apple for Lin Kai, who was entirely wrapped up like a mummy.

Seeing Xu Shaochen enter, Lin Wanxue smiled at him, then naturally stood up and hugged his arm.

“Young Master Lin, what happened to you? How did you become like this after just one night? Who did it? Do you have any leads?”

Xu Shaochen looked at Lin Kai with concern and anger, as if once Lin Kai told him who did it, he would immediately send someone to deal with them.

Gritting his teeth, Lin Kai said, “Xu Ge, this has nothing to do with you. I’ll handle it myself.”

“How can it have nothing to do with me? I don’t like what you’re saying, Young Master Lin. Look at the relationship between Wanxue and me—your business is my business.”

Xu Shaochen said righteously, pulling Lin Wanxue into his embrace.

“Young Master Xu, this is a family matter. We Lin Family can handle it ourselves. You’re a guest from afar, so there’s no need for you to worry.”

At this moment, a cold voice sounded as Lin Rong and Lin Yao walked in.

“You must be the eldest and second young masters. What you just said is too formal. I’m only trying to help Wanxue.”

Xu Shaochen once again emphasized his relationship with Lin Wanxue, intending to establish a position that would allow him to interfere in the Lin Family’s affairs later.

After all, fighting for family assets is also part of family matters.

Lin Yao frowned as he saw the intimate actions between Xu Shaochen and Lin Wanxue: “Xiao Xue, be more cautious when choosing a man. Some things only need to happen once. If it happens again, our Lin Family’s reputation won’t be enough to cover your shame.”

“Yes, Xiao Xue, I advise you to keep your distance from this Young Master Xu. I believe our father wouldn’t be happy about you getting too close to him either.”

Lin Rong also spoke up right after, expressing his disapproval of Lin Wanxue being involved with Xu Shaochen.

However, the two of them didn’t consider that Lin Wanxue might be competing with them for power.

They merely thought that since Lin Wanxue had a good relationship with Lin Kai and Xu Shaochen, who was already conspiring with Lin Kai.

In the competition for the Lin Corporation’s chairmanship, the two brothers would be at a disadvantage.

“Big Brother, Second Brother, there’s no need for you to worry about my personal matters. I know how to behave.”

Lin Wanxue said calmly to the two of them, showing the respect a younger sister should have for her older brothers.

“Hmph.”

Lin Yao and Lin Rong snorted coldly and stopped talking, shifting their attention to Lin Kai.

“What a disgrace. If you spent less time hanging out with those bad friends, you wouldn’t have gotten your hand broken.”

Lin Yao’s eyes flashed with contempt as he spoke coldly to Lin Kai.

“If you’re here to gloat, you can leave.” Lin Kai retorted unceremoniously, clashing with his own brother.

“Enough, everyone stop talking. Dad has already said that the Zheng Family will give us an explanation for this.”

Lin Rong stopped the argument between the two of them, aware that if they fought in a public place like the hospital, it would also tarnish the Lin Family’s reputation.

“An explanation? My hand is ruined. What explanation could make up for the loss of my hand? Unless Zheng Yun loses a hand too.”

Lin Kai suddenly raised his voice, clearly unwilling to accept any form of compensation and determined to take revenge.

Lin Yao frowned: “That’s ridiculous. Do you think that’s possible?”

“Why not? Are we, the Lin Family, afraid of the Zheng Family?” Lin Kai shouted angrily, breathing heavily.

Lin Rong said indifferently, “Our Lin Family isn’t afraid of the Zheng Family, but if they decide to go down with us, we’re going to suffer too. Don’t forget, Zheng Yun is the Zheng Family’s only son.”

Xu Shaochen, listening to this, couldn’t help but reveal a faint smile.

Lin Kai remained silent, and it was uncertain whether he had given up or was brooding over another scheme.

“That’s enough, I’m leaving. I have things to do.”

After finishing, Lin Yao and Lin Rong were about to leave, showing no resemblance to being brothers.

When he reached the doorway, Lin Yao stopped and pointed at Xu Shaochen, speaking word by word: “I don’t care what you’re planning, but in Hong Kong, you’d better behave. Otherwise, your status as the Young Master of the Xu Corporation won’t protect you.”

“Come here, say that again.”

Xu Shaochen smiled at him and waved him closer.

“What? You think you can eat me alive?”

Lin Yao sneered and walked up to Xu Shaochen, glaring at him coldly.

“I really hate the way you pointed at me.”

Xu Shaochen said each word slowly, then suddenly grabbed Lin Yao’s hair and slammed his head against the wall several times before releasing him.

“Ah!”

Everything happened within seconds.

When everyone reacted, Lin Yao was already holding his head on the ground, screaming in pain, his face covered in blood.

“What are you doing? You damn bastard! Are you courting death?”

Seeing this, Lin Rong flew into a rage and immediately rushed forward to shove Xu Shaochen.

Long Yi and Long Er coldly trained their handguns on him, pressing them against his forehead, making Lin Rong instantly quiet.

“Slap!”

Without hesitation, Xu Shaochen slapped Lin Rong and said indifferently, “You dirtied my clothes. Consider this slap as payback.”

After speaking, Xu Shaochen pulled out his phone and dialed Lin Changguan.

“Young Master Xu.”

After a while, the call connected, and Lin Changguan’s deep voice came through the line.

“Uncle Lin, I’ve arrived in Hong Kong, but I just had a little altercation with your eldest and second sons. I taught them a lesson. I hope you won’t mind.”

Xu Shaochen said calmly, putting the phone on speaker for everyone to hear.

“How could I mind? Those two sons of mine are indeed disappointing. They ought to be taught a lesson.”

Lin Changguan’s voice fell into the ears of Lin Yao and Lin Rong.

“Then that’s settled. Uncle Lin, I’ll visit you another day. Goodbye for now.”

After finishing the call, Xu Shaochen hung up and looked at Lin Rong and Lin Yao with disdain: “Did you hear that? You two are not even qualified to speak to me because you don’t deserve it. To me, you’re nothing but trash. From now on, mind your tone when speaking to me, or else you’ll get beaten for nothing.”

Xu Shaochen lightly patted Lin Rong’s face, his expression full of mockery as if watching a foolish clown.

Lin Yao and Lin Rong glared at him angrily, but despite their resentment, they didn’t dare to say another word at this moment.

“Get lost.”

Xu Shaochen waved his hand as if shooing away flies.
