Chapter 614: Negotiation Collapse
"Yi Lin, you hypocrite!" Baili Hengyuan was even more furious. "You are still deceiving us!"
He thought that Yi Lin came to their house with the real intention of apologizing to them and giving an explanation to the Baili family.
Unexpectedly, he had come today for an ulterior motive. Yi Huai was such a ruthless person, doing such a thing that harmed his daughter, and for so many years, he shamelessly enjoyed the compensation from his Baili family.
Now that the truth has been revealed, they still want them to let Yi Huai go. This is simply a huge joke.
Since the purpose of his visit this time had been exposed, Yi Lin had no intention of pretending any longer. "Brother Baili, it is true that this matter was Yi Huai's fault. But the mistake has been made now. Fortunately, Le Yao has woken up."
"It's been so long since the incident happened. Further pursuing this matter wouldn't be good for either of our families. Feel free to state any conditions you have. As long as we can meet them or offer compensation, we won't hesitate."
"I only have one request now, and that is to ask you to let Yi Huai go. He is still young and has a bright future. He has already realized his mistake. Let him go this time and let him work like a slave to make it up to Le Yao."
"Bullshit!" Baili Hengyuan couldn't help but curse. "Le Yao was left in a coma for so many years by your son. So much of her vitality was absorbed, and her talent was taken away for so many years. And now you want to let it go with just a few words? You're simply dreaming!"
Zhong Nianyao, who was standing by, also found it funny. She sneered and said, "I finally understand why Yi Huai would do such a heinous thing. It turns out it's genetic! This must be what they often say, 'If the top beam is crooked, the bottom beam will be crooked!'"
"You little brat, who allowed you to talk nonsense here?"
Being interrupted by a junior, Yi Lin's face darkened and he started to scold, "I'm talking to your grandfather, you have no right to interrupt."
Lu Yichen's face darkened, and when he looked at Yi Lin, murderous intent began to burst out from the depths of his eyes.
However, before he could do anything, he felt a warmth on his hand. When he looked up, he met Zhong Nianyao's smiling eyes. His heart softened and all the murderous intent in his body disappeared.
Yi Lin instinctively sensed danger, but it was fleeting. When he wanted to feel it again, he could no longer feel anything unusual.
He shook his head, thinking that he was wrong just now and that he might be a little too nervous.
Yi Lin didn't know at this moment that he had just been on the verge of death. If Zhong Nianyao hadn't stopped him, he would have been seriously injured even if he didn't die.
Lu Yichen would never tolerate anyone behaving disrespectfully towards Zhong Nianyao.
"Yi Lin, you're so arrogant!" Baili Hengyuan slammed the table with all his might, showing no mercy. "You've even shown off your power to my Baili Family. I don't think you came here today to give us an explanation, but to force us to save Yi Huai."
"I didn't mean that." Yi Lin's expression froze, and then he began to explain, "It's just that your granddaughter really doesn't know how to be polite. She interrupted the elders when they were talking. You really need to be disciplined."
"You--" Baili Hengyuan was furious, but he was interrupted by Zhong Nianyao's slow words just as he was about to open his mouth.
"Yes! I really don't know how to behave. It's because my biological mother was in a coma for over twenty years and couldn't teach me properly!" Zhong Nianyao spread her hands and said helplessly, "So, the culprit who caused all this really deserves to be cut into pieces and go to hell. Don't you agree?"
These words made Yi Lin's face turn red, but he couldn't say anything in rebuttal and could only feel annoyed in his heart.
"Well said!" Baili Hengyuan also revealed a smug smile. He looked at Yi Lin and said, "Master Yi, even if it is true as you said, it is because of Yi Huai. So, how do you plan to deal with this culprit?"
Yi Lin's face suddenly darkened. "Bai Li Hengyuan, you're not going to back down no matter what, are you? The Bai Li family and the Yi family are in conflict, which will only make others laugh at you. What good will it do you?"
"Isn't it Yi Huai who caused the current situation between our two families?" Baili Hengyuan sneered and said, "You are being so aggressive here, insisting that I let Yi Huai go. Isn't that directly putting our two families at odds?"
"Bai Li Hengyuan, if you really have to do this, then don't blame me for being rude!" Yi Lin sneered and said, "I said, if you are willing to let Yi Huai go this time, then our Yi family is willing to agree to any compensation. But if you insist on doing this, then our Yi family will not tolerate it."
"Things are different now. Do you think your Baili Family is still the same Baili Family from its heyday? Our Yi Family has already reached its peak. It will be of no benefit to you to go against our Yi Family."
"I don't care whether it's beneficial or not!" Baili Hengyuan sneered. "But no matter what, my Baili family just can't swallow this! Yi Lin, if it were you, your child was murdered and fell into a coma for over twenty years, and now you are asked to forgive the culprit, could you do it?"
Can't do it!
Yi Lin was very clear about his choice, but now he was in a different position and he couldn't answer it.
But no matter what, he absolutely could not leave Yi Huai alone today.
Whether it was really for Yi Huai or just to maintain the reputation and status of the Yi family, he absolutely could not give in now.
More importantly, he absolutely could not tolerate the Yi family being threatened by the Baili family.
"Bai Li Hengyuan, since you have chosen to declare war on our Yi family, then our Yi family will definitely not back down." Yi Lin looked at Bai Li Hengyuan with a cold look in his eyes. "Then we will see who is more powerful, the Yi family or the Bai Li family."
"Then bring it on!" Baili Hengyuan's expression remained unchanged. After a cold smile, he said, "My Baili family has never been afraid. Moreover, since your Yi family was in the wrong in this matter, we have even less to fear."
Baili Hengyuan and Yi Lin refused to give in to each other. The whole living room was filled with a silent smoke of gunpowder, which made people feel particularly depressed.
At this moment, a painful sound was heard. It was the evil spirit in Yi Huai that broke out again.
