Wang Jinlian realized that she had been deceived by her classmate Liu Hong.
This is a complete disaster. More than two million yuan, gone just like that!
"No, that's impossible! Liu Hong couldn't have lied to me. Bring her out here, I want to confront her face to face!"
Wang Jinlian tried desperately to squeeze into the shop, but Wang Mingzhe kicked her to the ground.
"You dare hit me?" Wang Jinlian gritted her teeth and said, "Let me tell you, I am the young mistress of the Liu Group. Believe me or not, I'll have my husband Liu Peng kill you!"
"The Liu family?" Wang Mingzhe sneered disdainfully. "Don't you know where you are? Do you think a shrew like you can cause trouble here? Offending the Zhao family will make your whole family regret it! Get out!"
Wang Jinlian trembled, only then remembering that this was Ganlin Shopping Mall, the Zhao family's business. Compared to Zhao the Richest Man, the Liu family was nothing!
However, Wang Jinlian was naturally unwilling to accept being cheated out of two million yuan, and immediately called the police after being kicked out of the shopping mall.
There was a police station nearby, and given the large sum of money involved, the police were extremely cautious. They quickly identified the suspect, Liu Hong, through surveillance footage and arrested him.
"Liu Hong, you bastard, give me back my money right now!"
At the police station, Wang Jinlian immediately started asking Liu Hong for money as soon as they met.
Liu Hong looked embarrassed. "I did want to pay you back, but the money was frozen by the bank as soon as it arrived. The bank told me that this money is to be used to pay off my mortgage and interest!"
"What?!" Wang Jinlian felt dizzy upon hearing this and immediately contacted the bank.
When has Daxia's bank ever been reasonable, or when has it ever suffered a loss?
Wang Jinlian was completely confused; in short, it was highly likely that she wouldn't get the money back. Like throwing a meat bun to a dog—gone and never to return.
Wang Jinlian was almost in tears! She caused a scene at the police station and nearly scratched a police officer, resulting in her being detained.
Lin Yu and Lu Xueqing knew nothing about this. After obtaining the Angel's Tear, the two continued shopping and spent a romantic day together.
The next day, Lin Yu got up early to cook breakfast and had breakfast with his wife.
Remembering her promise to Shao Junjie, Lu Xueqing once again persuaded Lin Yu to remove the curse from Zhao Guangcai's grandson.
When his wife spoke, Lin Shaoshuai readily agreed.
At the same time, the Zhao family received an uninvited guest.
This uninvited guest was none other than Master Chen, who had previously feigned supernatural abilities and sowed discord between Lin Yu and the Zhao family.
Master Chen estimated that the Gu poison he had planted in Zhao Mingming should have already taken effect.
In fact, his purpose in using the Gu poison was to control the Zhao family and then use their influence to gain greater benefits.
"Master Gu, according to the deputy sect leader's plan, as long as we control the Zhao family, we can use this Blue Book Project to complete the monopoly of medicine in the entire Northeast. At that time, our Gu Sect will have the capital to establish itself in the Northeast. With the support of ancient martial arts families, dominating the entire northern regime is only a matter of time!"
In front of the Zhao family's gate, one of his henchmen sneered sinisterly, his eyes gleaming with intense excitement.
Master Chen smiled and nodded. As a high-ranking member of the Witchcraft Sect, he had been waiting for this day for a long time.
"We should also thank those useless Undead Clan for giving us this opportunity, otherwise the Ancient Martial Arts Sect would never have taken notice of us! Since they have chosen to support my Witchcraft Sect this time, let's show them the power of Witchcraft!" Master Chen let out a cold laugh.
The two then headed towards the Zhao family's gate.
"Vice Mayor Zhao, that Master Chen is here again!"
The butler rushed into the main room.
At this time, inside the house were Zhao Guangcai's family, young and old, as well as Liang Zhenxing and Liang Qingxia, grandmother and granddaughter.
The grandfather and granddaughter received a call from Lin Yu in the morning, informing them that Lin Yu had agreed to remove the curse from Zhao Mingming, and they rushed over immediately.
Upon hearing that Master Chen had arrived, the Zhao family members couldn't help but feel nervous.
After all, it was this sorcerer who administered the poison!
"Dad, what should we do? Should we call the police?" Zhao Jianguo said through gritted teeth. Although he wanted to go out and beat up this Master Chen, he knew that these kinds of江湖人 (jianghu people) were unpredictable and might have secretly cast a spell on him.
The other members of the Zhao family were also shocked and furious, but none of them dared to go out and see this Master Chen.
"What? This Master Chen is the one who cast the curse on the child?" Liang Qingxia's eyes widened in shock, and she immediately wanted to go out and meet this person. But Liang Zhenxing stopped her.
"Girl! Are you crazy! This kind of person's methods are unpredictable and we can't afford to offend them!"
As Liang Zhenxing spoke, he said to Zhao Guangcai, "Leader Zhao, we must not act rashly. Let's wait for Mr. Lin to arrive before making any decisions!"
He knew Lin Yu's methods; to deal with this Master Chen, only Doctor Lin could do it! Only Doctor Lin could fight Master Chen in terms of Gu and magic!
Zhao Guangcai nodded solemnly and said to the steward, "Go and tell Master Chen that I am not feeling well today and will not be receiving guests. Please ask him to come later!"
His idea was to stall until Lin Yu arrived before dealing with this fiend!
The butler immediately obeyed and went out to report back to Master Chen.
"I'm sorry, Master Chen, our Deputy Mayor Zhao is not feeling well today. Please come back later!" the butler said, a glint of light flashing in his eyes. He had already notified everyone in the mansion that if this guy dared to cause trouble, they would take him down immediately.
"Outrageous! Our master is the benefactor of your Zhao family. Is this how you treat your benefactor? You won't even offer him a cup of hot tea?" Master Chen's subordinate was furious and started cursing on the spot.
Master Chen, however, seemed to have noticed something. He waved his hand, squinted at his surroundings, and nodded with a smile. "Alright, since Leader Zhao isn't feeling well, I'll come back another day!"
As Master Chen finished speaking, he turned and left with his men.
Only after leaving the courtyard did his subordinates finally ask, "Master Gu, what does the Zhao family mean by daring to turn you away? It's outrageous!"
Master Chen waved his hand and said, "Based on the timeline, the Gu poison in that child's body has become extremely severe, and it's impossible to leave it untreated. But look at the Chen family's situation, the child should be fine! So, it's highly likely that a master intervened and suppressed the Gu poison's onset in the child's body! It seems our plan has been seen through!"
"What?" The subordinate's eyes widened, and he immediately asked nervously, "Will the Zhao family call the police and have us arrested?"
Master Chen shook his head. "That shouldn't be the case. After all, they don't have any evidence to prove that I poisoned them. Besides, people with power and status like them value their lives the most, and they probably wouldn't want to offend us江湖人 (jianghu people). So we're safe for now!"
