The atmosphere in the private room beca suffocatingly tense. The Su family’s relatives and friends were all dumbfounded, looking left and right, unsure of who to believe.
"You dare spout such nonsense without any evidence? Do you really take everyone else for idiots?" Lin Fan demanded, staring straight at Su ngqing with an expressionless face.
"...Lin Fan! A person should take responsibility for their own actions. Could you be any more shaless?" Su ngqing finally snapped, her face turning nacing and her eyes filling with bitter resentnt. "We all saw you on your phone, posting and leaking the prescription online, and now you refuse to admit it? You make regret the four long years I spent living with soone like you!"
As she spoke, her anger surged. Her eyes grew red, and her entire body began to tremble uncontrollably. Her voice beca shrill, finally cracking into a heart-wrenching scream.
"Sorry, I learned it all from you," Lin Fan said after a mont of silence. He shook his head, his indifferent expression unchanged. "Weren’t you the ones who were always saying that everything requires evidence? The prescription belonged to my mother, but you refuse to acknowledge it. My mother secretly helped the Su Family rise, and you refuse to acknowledge that either. Last night, you were caught red-handed stealing my White Dragon Grass, and you *still* refuse to acknowledge it!
"So now you’re saying I’m the one who caused the Su Family’s stock price to collapse by leaking the prescription? Fine. Just like you always demand, present the evidence! Otherwise, why the hell should I admit to anything!"
BOOM!
His cold expression and forceful words exploded in the room like a clap of thunder.
Zhang ili and the other two were both shocked and furious, their faces flushing crimson. Su ngqing’s own face burned as she bit her lip so hard it nearly bled. Her vision swam with dark spots, as if she had just stepped off a cliff into an abyss.
Can you be any more vicious, Lin Fan? To think you’d expose all our dirty laundry in front of all the Su Family’s relatives and friends! And the worst part is, we really don’t have any evidence to force him to confess. The hatred... it’s all-consuming!
"I think Lin Fan has a point. He’s just a nial worker at the pharmaceutical company. How could he have possibly gotten his hands on the Injury Ointnt Prescription?"
"Could Su ngqing and her family be deliberately deceiving us?"
"That must be it! They’re just looking for an excuse for selling their shares to cash out!"
Whispers spread through the room as everyone began to speculate. In an instant, the way they looked at Su ngqing and her family changed completely.
"Are you all stupid? It was obviously Lin Fan who did it, how dare you doubt us?" Zhang ili’s blood pressure skyrocketed, and she looked ready to burst with rage.
"Where’s the evidence? Show us the evidence!" Lin Fan demanded, cutting them off before anyone else could speak.
"Humph, it was you, Lin Fan, who stole our family’s prescription!" Su Gang’s eyes darted around before he blurted out what he thought was a brilliant accusation. "Then, after we threw you out with nothing, you held a grudge and leaked it online!"
"Alright, so now you’re saying I stole the prescription? Sa question as before: show the evidence!" Lin Fan retorted, his expression unwavering.
"Uhh..." Su Gang’s face went scarlet, and he nearly choked on his own words, completely flustered. The stares from the crowd felt like daggers, as if they were all looking at an idiot. He was rendered speechless, bowing his head so low in utter sha that he nearly buried it in his lap.
"Evidence, my ass!" At that mont, Zhang ili’s chubby face twitched ferociously as she completely lost her composure. She pointed a finger straight at Lin Fan and began to shriek, "I said you stole the prescription, so you stole it! It was you who leaked it online and caused the stock price to plumt!"
She planted her hands on her hips, adopting a truculent, shrewish posture.
"Zhang ili, do you take us for fools?"
"That’s hilarious. You’re still trying to pin the bla on Lin Fan?"
"Cut the bullshit! Compensation! Give us our compensation now!"
"If you don’t give us a proper explanation, don’t bla us for getting physical!"
Her tantrum was useless. The crowd, looking as though they had seen through the entire charade, began to shout angrily. They advanced nacingly, forcing Su ngqing and the other three to back away in a panic.
"Lin Fan, you son of a bitch! I... I curse you to a horrible death!" Zhang ili could no longer act tough. She could only retreat while spewing curses at Lin Fan.
"You should be more concerned with whether your family can walk out of this room alive," Lin Fan said coldly, preparing to turn and leave with Xiao Jie.
"Ahem! Everyone, please listen to for a mont!"
Suddenly, Stubborn Su Gang, who had been hiding behind Su Gang, finally mustered the courage to stand up. He forced a smile that looked more painful than a sob and coughed loudly to draw everyone’s attention.
I have no choice. If these people get their compensation, the Su Family will lose a fortune! And wouldn’t that an I get less money from my own scam?
"FUCK! It’s Su Guang!"
"You’ve got so nerve, Zhang ili! You too, Su ngqing! That damn scamr Su Guang is back in Haicheng, and you dared to hide it from us!"
"Just great! Tonight, we settle all accounts, new and old! You’re going to pay back the money you scamd from us four years ago, too!"
BOOM!
The sudden appearance of Su Guang, who had been missing for four years, left everyone stunned. A mont later, the room erupted. Many people’s eyes turned bloodshot as they glared at him with a predatory fierceness.
"What are you all getting so worked up about? I go by Stubborn Su Gang now! You just want money, right? I’ve got plenty!" Stubborn Su Gang yelled, angered by their hateful stares.
"Su Guang, you have the fucking nerve to yell at us? Pay us back! Pay us back now!" soone roared, spittle flying from his mouth.
"I told you, my na is Stubborn Su Gang now!" he reiterated furiously, his face twisting with rage.
"Fuck you! I don’t care if you’re called Su Guang or Stubborn Su Gang! If we don’t see our money tonight, all five of you can go to hell!"
"Enough talk! Let’s beat them up first to vent so steam! Beat the shit out of these scamrs until they start talking straight!" more people roared, their eyes red with fury as they teetered on the edge of losing control.
As the crowd grew more agitated and the situation spun out of control, Su ngqing’s face turned deathly pale. She was pressed against the wall with nowhere left to retreat. Zhang ili and the others trembled, the urge to urinate becoming overwhelming. They all shot desperate looks at Stubborn Su Gang, praying he could sohow turn the tide.
"If you dare lay a finger on us, I guarantee you’ll regret it for the rest of your lives!" Stubborn Su Gang bellowed, though the shaking in his own legs made it clear he could barely stand. He thrust a finger towards Xiao Jie, who was standing beside Lin Fan. "Open your damn eyes and look carefully! That is His Highness Abdullah Alger, the noble Prince of Sha Country! And I am now his personal advisor from Xia Country!"
As his words fell, the room plunged into silence. The crowd’s expressions shifted, and they exchanged uneasy glances, suddenly at a loss. They were just ordinary citizens; no one dared to act recklessly in front of such a distinguished foreign guest.
Seeing he had intimidated them, Stubborn Su Gang breathed a secret sigh of relief as a plan ford in his mind.
If I’m going to scam them, I might as well scam them all. I’ll make one massive score and then disappear for good!
"You’ve all been clamoring for compensation, right? Well, now there’s an opportunity to strike it rich right in front of you!"
With newfound confidence, he adopted an arrogant deanor, clasping his hands behind his back. He strode proudly to stand before Su ngqing and the others, sweeping his gaze across the crowd. "Let tell you, our Su Family is preparing to cooperate with the Sha Country Royal Family! Not only will we continue to supply Su Pharmaceutical’s products, but we also plan to raise money to bid for the mining rights to a large oil field! Invest your money, and we can all grow rich and powerful together. I guarantee you’ll all make a fortune!"
