Chapter 197: Chapter 196: Playing the Victim

At this moment, in a hospital within the Imperial Capital War Zone.

Inside the intensive care unit, Ah Fu knelt in front of the hospital bed, his head wrapped in bandages and cheeks swollen high.

Behind him were two guard officers, also kneeling with their injuries bandaged and treated.

All three were hanging their heads low, their faces pale, not daring to breathe heavily.

“Is this how you take care of my son?”

Shen Yueli, who had hurried in, stood by the bed, clenching her jaw tightly, her beautiful eyes filled with a deep sense of heartache.

Lying on the hospital bed was a figure wrapped like a mummy, covered in thick white bandages from head to toe.

Were it not for those familiar eyes that were exposed.

Shen Yueli almost couldn’t recognize him.

Could this bedridden person really be her once lively and spirited good son?

Bang!

Mrs. Ying Sr., who was standing beside, grimaced with a pained expression, also full of heartache.

She slammed the bedside table fiercely.

The three kneeling, including Ah Fu, shuddered simultaneously, almost burying their heads into their pants.

“Explain clearly, what exactly happened!”

Mrs. Ying Sr.’s chest heaved violently, trying hard to restrain her temper as she spoke in a low voice.

“I, I don’t really know, when I went to The First People’s Hospital, the foreign couple had agreed to give up the bone marrow.”

Ah Fu dared not lift his head, speaking in a trembling voice.

“But, but somehow, Lin Fan showed up and insisted on taking the bone marrow back!”

“Hmph, do you think I’m senile? How long has Lin Fan been in the Imperial Capital? How could he know such details and arrive at the hospital on time!”

Mrs. Ying Sr. laughed in rage, kicking Ah Fu in the face.

Instantly it hurt so much the tears welled up in his eyes, knocking his head on the floor to beg for mercy.

“I’m wrong, I’m wrong, madam, it’s the fault of this old slave! I shouldn’t have hidden it, I deserve to die, I deserve to die!”

Slap! Slap! Slap!

Ah Fu, enduring the pain, slapped himself repeatedly while trembling as he begged for forgiveness.

“It was, it was that foreign couple, who somehow got Lin Fan’s contact information. They initially didn’t want to let go, insisting on making a call to get someone involved…”

“So, you took it upon yourself to let them make that call, which led to Lin Fan coming here and ruining Rufeng’s good deed?”

At these words, a twitch appeared on Shen Yueli’s cheek, and her beautiful eyes faintly revealed a trace of malice.

Mrs. Ying Sr. was even more furious, lifting her foot to kick Ah Fu’s face again.

“You dog of a servant, are you really that full? You have a pig’s brain; why did you let them make that call!”

“I, I didn’t expect that they’d call in Lin Fan, that troublemaker!”

Ah Fu, in tears of pain, shook his head, choking back sobs.

Inwardly, he regretted so much he could feel it in his stomach.

Just one wrong move, just one.

If he could do it all over again.

He would never let down his guard, allowing that middle-aged couple to plead for even the slightest chance of survival!

“Hmph, do you know why you failed?”

Shen Yueli clenched her fist, coldly staring at the kneeling Ah Fu.

“Because you believed that with the prestige of the Ying family, others wouldn’t dare to provoke easily, you underestimated those at the lower levels, believing you were superior.”

“Ma’am, I wouldn’t dare, blame Lin Fan for arriving too suddenly, and his meddlesome nature!”

Ah Fu trembled again, muttering a bitter explanation.

“Indeed, if it were anyone else, who would dare interfere with our Ying family affairs?”

Shen Yueli gave a cold laugh, sitting on the bed with a sullen face, reaching out to touch Ying Rufeng’s head.

“In the future, keep your wits about you when handling matters, and don’t be careless again.”

She said, indifferently, without even turning her head.

“Of course, if there’s a next time, you know what the consequences will be… Ah Lu, because he messed up, has already disappeared, never to appear again.”

Wha, what?

Ah Lu has already been kicked out of the Ying family?

Boom!

Ah Fu’s eyes widened, swallowing hard in disbelief.

To know, Ah Lu was one of Shen Yueli’s confidants, often giving her advice.

Considered her personal strategist.

Who would have thought that just because of one failure.

Shen Yueli would disregard past relationships and kick him out directly?

“Yes, yes! I’ll never dare again, thank you, ma’am, for forgiving me!”

Ah Fu quickly knocked his head on the ground again.

Under the signal of Shen Yueli’s waving hand, he scrambled out of the room, rolling and crawling.

“You two, explain, what was the situation then?”

The door closed again.

Shen Yueli withdrew her gaze, turning to the two shivering guard officers on the ground.

“Madam, spare us, we already tried our best to protect the Deputy Commander, it was, it was Lin Fan’s skill that was too great, we simply couldn’t beat him!”

“Yes, yes, that bastard could even dodge bullets, and somehow caused my gun to misfire!”

The two of them frantically knocked their heads on the floor, trembling as they cried out to be spared.

“Rufeng stayed in the Hulin Guard for so many years, even received guidance from many renowned masters, and had Qi Replenishing Pills as if they cost nothing every day.”

Mrs. Ying Sr. showed a doubtful face, giving an angry snort.

“Lin Fan’s meridians were eroded by the Seven-Core Deadly Lotus seven years ago, how could he still overpower my Rufeng child?”

“This, this… subordinates don’t know! But the Deputy Commander was the first to take action, yet couldn’t withstand even two moves from Lin Fan!”

“That person’s strength was too powerful, perhaps a master of mysterious energy, the Deputy Commander was only at the mid-stage of Qi Condensation, yet it seemed Lin Fan wasn’t even using his full strength!”

The two guard officers stammered, their faces turning blue and then red.

Although extremely reluctant to admit.

The fierce scene of Lin Fan was still vivid in their mind, leaving them unable to lie.

“… Mom, grandmother, don’t blame them, I have no skills to blame myself, and allowed Ying Bufan to have the upper hand, I’m sorry.”

Before the frightened and uncertain Shen Yueli and Mrs. Ying Sr. could speak.

Ying Rufeng, lying on the hospital bed, his eyelids twitched, opening his listless eyes.

“Xiao Feng, how can it be your fault, you are already excellent enough, it’s Lin Fan, that dog, who concealed his strength, which caused you such a loss!”

Mrs. Ying Sr. was both heartbroken and aggrieved.

She hurried up to touch Ying Rufeng’s head.

“Xiao Feng, don’t be afraid, your father is coming back tomorrow, and your grandfather is on his way; they will stand up for you.”

Shen Yueli wore a complex expression, swallowing her words of reproach.

Initially thinking Lin Suxin was dead, Lin Fan was crippled, and would never dare show his face again.

Her son was destined to become the future heir of the Ying family, living a life of glory forever.

Who would have thought, Lin Fan not only lived well.

But once he appeared, he formed a blood feud with their family!

Fine, fine… as soon as Ying Wenyuan handles things over there, it will definitely be Lin Fan’s death date!

By then, talk not of the Hai City Yuan Family.

Even if Mr. Xia Sr. and several other military bigwigs get involved, they won’t be able to protect you, Lin Fan!

“Mom, grandma, I’m in such pain, my calf and right arm were broken by my older brother… He never really considered me as family.”

“He even snatched my life-saving bone marrow, he really intends to let me die!”

Ying Rufeng’s eyes flickered.

Immediately he shook his head, choking with a sense of immense anger and pain.

“Good child, don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid, even if grandma has to risk her old life this time, she will make that brat pay with his life for you!”

Mrs. Ying Sr. was full of heartache, soothingly comforted.

Shen Yueli slightly raised the corners of her mouth, casting a look of approval.

Admittedly, Ying Rufeng performed quite well, understanding deeply the essence of retreating in order to advance.

Only by appearing more miserable can one garner more sympathy.

By then, when Ying Wenyuan returns, seeing such a scene.

He will naturally also be thunderously enraged, not softening his heart one bit to the reborn elder son!
