Chen Fan felt that waiting wouldn't hurt.
It's a good opportunity to see someone break down.
Now that Chen Zhaokun is gone, if anyone in the Chen family were to collapse, then...
As they waited and waited, the sun rose higher and higher.
At this point, the old lady couldn't sit still any longer and asked Lin Ma to go and take a look.
Not long after, Lin's mother returned in a panic.
"What's wrong?" The old lady suddenly stood up.
"The young lady hasn't gotten up yet, she said..." Lin Ma said, looking down. Thinking of what she had seen, she was still a little shocked. At this moment, she didn't know what to say.
"This child has even learned to be lazy in bed." The old lady laughed when she heard this.
Chen Siyuan used to stay in bed late every day so as not to pay her respects to her grandmother, something the old lady had gotten used to.
She also knew that her granddaughter had been very busy lately, busy looking at the accounts, and she wondered how late she had been busy last night.
Thinking about this makes me feel a little heartbroken.
Chen Fan sat quietly to the side without saying a word.
I smiled inwardly.
He saw Lin Ma's expression just now.
I believe it won't be long before Chen Luyang's affair can no longer be hidden, and then he can...
So what if he's the legitimate son? He can get whatever he wants anytime.
If Aunt Zhao hadn't been so incompetent, he wouldn't have been sent back to deal with this matter.
They waited and waited, and it was almost noon. Lin Ma had been sent out by the old lady several times.
Just as the old lady was about to run out of patience, Chen Siyuan and Chen Luyang came in from outside.
The old lady was so excited to see her grandson and granddaughter that she went to the door to greet them.
Chen Fan got up and saw that Chen Luyang was still alive, especially his legs, which were still perfectly fine.
How could he have failed when he hired a hitman at great expense?
"Siyuan, you're so insensible. You're such a grown girl, why are you still so lazy in bed?" The old lady said, deliberately slapping Chen Siyuan's hand.
"Ah—it hurts!" Chen Siyuan screamed, her eyes reddening.
"Look at the child, he even knows how to feel embarrassed now."
"Grandmother hit her too hard and hurt her granddaughter."
"Nonsense! How could Grandmother bear to use force?"
"Grandma is so annoying. She clearly hit her granddaughter, but she won't admit it." Chen Siyuan said, turning to the side and asking Lin Ma, "Lin Ma, tell me, did Grandma hit me just now?"
"This servant didn't see it," Lin Ma said, bowing her head.
I was still shocked by what I saw not long ago, and seeing them pretending to be fine in front of the old lady made me feel sorry for the two children.
"Grandmother, you're bullying me."
"Who would dare to bully you? You're lucky if you don't bully others."
"Grandmother—" Chen Siyuan was very reluctant, but she still took the old lady's arm and went into the house, sitting directly on the old lady's left.
This is where Chen Fan was sitting. Because they arrived, he got up and there was no place for him to sit.
Chen Luyang sat down to the right of the old lady.
After the old lady sat down, she seemed to notice Chen Fan standing to the side. She didn't realize that Chen Fan's seat had been taken by Chen Siyuan, and she said directly, "Fan'er, you sit down too."
Chen Fan couldn't believe Chen Luyang was unharmed, and he had also witnessed the old lady's blindness. He could only sit down.
Breakfast was almost noon, but the old lady didn't utter a single complaint.
The meal was eaten in silence, which was a rule of the Chen family.
After finishing their meal, Chen Siyuan and Chen Luyang made an excuse to leave.
Chen Fan followed them away.
After they all left, the old lady's expression changed instantly. "Aunt Lin, what exactly happened?"
Knowing that nothing could be hidden from the old lady, Lin Ma knelt on the ground with a thud, "This servant doesn't know either. When I went to find the eldest young lady, I saw the eldest young master..."
The more Lin Ma talked, the uglier the old lady's face became, and eventually she overturned the table.
"Damn it, they still made their move!"
......
Spring residence.
Despite the difference between men and women, Chen Siyuan personally applied medicine to her elder brother.
Seeing the bloody marks on her older brother's body, she felt an urge to rush over and kill him.
That damned Chen Fan, she actually poisoned my brother.
"Alright, you can go now!" Chen Luyang felt very embarrassed as his sister applied the medicine.
"Brother, tell me what happened?" Chen Siyuan had rushed up to Chen Fan demanding his return, but Wang Li suddenly brought news that their older brother had returned.
Upon hearing the news, she immediately ran to Chunju and saw her disheveled elder brother, her eyes reddening.
Things weren't as bad as they were in her previous life; her older brother's leg was still fine.
At this point, Lin's mother kept urging them to go to their grandmother's place so as not to worry her.
Now, Chen Siyuan wants to know what exactly happened.
In her heart, as long as her older brother was alright, there was no need to resort to extremes in many things.
She had another decision in her heart.
Chen Fan was going to the capital to take the imperial examination.
She wanted to see for herself that even if a person with a broken leg went to the capital, they would have no hope of achieving that goal.
In her past life, Chen Fan didn't get to go to high school, and now she wants him to suffer even more.
“When I came back last night, I was robbed, but I took care of them.”
Chen Siyuan clearly didn't believe him when she heard this.
She was clearly an assassin, but she claimed to be a robber. Seeing her brother trying so hard to cover it up, she didn't expose him directly.
"Why didn't you come back all night, and why did you get yourself into such a mess?"
"When I came back, I encountered a group of thieves again, and I..."
Chen Siyuan couldn't listen anymore.
I simply got up; I didn't want to listen to anyone rambling on.
If someone doesn't want to talk about it, she can look it up herself.
......
Autumn Breeze Garden.
When Chen Fan saw that Chen Luyang was unharmed, he felt that something was wrong.
Those people have no chance of succeeding if they take action.
Thinking about this, he wanted to verify it himself.
He had just returned to Qiushuang Garden.
Seeing the four assassins' corpses lying on the ground, he immediately felt uneasy.
When Wang Fei saw the corpse, he instinctively wanted to scream, but Chen Fan, who had reacted quickly, knocked him unconscious with a single palm strike.
He quickly closed the door, making sure no one would notice.
He approached the four assassins and confirmed that they were the ones he had hired.
All four assassins are professional killers, and countless people have died at their hands. Why is it that when the four of them joined forces, they couldn't even deal with Chen Luyang, and instead lost their own lives?
Thinking to himself, he took out a small bottle from his pocket and sprinkled it on them.
The four corpses made a series of soft, gurgling sounds as they quickly turned into blood, which seeped into the ground.
Regardless of how the four assassins died, or who brought the bodies to his yard, now that there are no witnesses, he has nothing to fear.
However, next time, some people won't be so lucky.
