Divorce Only Makes a Son-in-Law Stronger-Chapter 265 - 264: Missing a Golden Opportunity
"Mr. Wang, Mr. Hua, it's me, Xiao Yang, Yang Xiuxiu... We met at the exchange platform last week!"
Everyone turned to look, surprised and curious.
Yang Xiuxiu's face flushed crimson with embarrassment as she hurriedly explained. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
"Uh... sorry, still can't recall."
Wang Yang frowned in thought for a moment, then shook his head again.
The young man referred to as Mr. Hua also exchanged puzzled looks with his companions.
Although they had no impression of Yang Xiuxiu, with Lin Fan present, it was obvious they were here for her father.
Feeling a sudden surprise, everyone quickly showed some friendliness.
"It's okay, today we'll officially meet. From now on, we're all friends and should communicate more."
A short-haired female warrior, smiling, pulled the embarrassingly shy Yang Xiuxiu over and said softly.
"That's right, since you're Brother Lin's friend, you're naturally our friend, too."
"We're all members of the martial arts exchange circle, so let's not be strangers... Uncle, Auntie, sorry for coming in such a hurry without knowing the situation here."
"Hey, you, quickly go to the fruit store downstairs and buy up all their fruit baskets and bring them up here!"
Everyone spoke all at once.
They looked at Master Yang and his wife with respect in their eyes.
"This is really too much, making everyone spend so much, haha."
Master Yang was both surprised and pleased, his face glowing, feeling the pain in his body lighten significantly.
His wife was all smiles, exchanging excited glances with several family members.
Although they gained this respect partly due to Lin Fan,
thinking of the Yang family, which merely ran a martial arts school,
it was incredibly rare to receive such an honor.
"Thank you, Mr. Wang, thank you, Mr. Hua... Thank you all, really, thank you so much!"
Yang Xiuxiu was also stunned.
She never expected these high-and-mighty stars of the circle to be so warm?
Amidst her tremendous delight, her gaze towards Lin Fan softened somewhat.
"You got it wrong, this clueless idiot isn't friends with my boss at all; he was just accusing us of being charlatans!"
The next moment,
Wang Meng rolled his eyes and bluntly exposed the situation.
Damn, can't you keep your mouth shut?
The pleasant atmosphere was ruined by this!
Instantly, Master Yang's wife and several family members turned pale, all looking at Lin Fan pleadingly.
Yang Xiuxiu's body trembled violently, her pretty face alternating between blue and white.
She wanted to apologize to Lin Fan right away.
But her ingrained sense of superiority wouldn't let her open her mouth.
"I, I..."
Yang Xiuxiu's face was as red as a ripe apple, almost on the verge of tears.
Feeling helpless, she looked expectantly at Lin Fan, stammering and unable to speak.
"Brother Lin, is what Wang Meng said true?"
"Hmph, did you really call Lin Fan a charlatan? How ridiculous!"
"Yang Xiuxiu, if you dare to slander my Brother Lin, don't ever come to our circle again!"
Wang Yang and the others paused for a moment.
Realizing what had happened, their expressions changed, and they started standing up for Lin Fan.
"...Forget it, I don't feel like making a fuss."
Under the varied gazes of the crowd,
Lin Fan remained silent for a moment, then glanced at the wryly smiling Master Yang.
In the end, he didn't want the family to be utterly disgraced, so he calmly shook his head.
"Anyway, we won't have any interaction in the future, so I don't care about a stranger's opinion."
After speaking indifferently, Lin Fan gestured to Master Song nearby and resumed administering acupuncture.
"Right, right, it's all a misunderstanding, as long as it's cleared up, haha."
Seeing the tense and awkward atmosphere in the room,
Master Yang's wife quickly stood up, smiling broadly to lighten the mood.
Several family members secretly sighed with relief and glared subtly at Yang Xiuxiu.
Master Yang and Masters Jiang and Song held their chests, taking long breaths of relief.
They felt their hearts, which had been in their throats, finally settle back down in their chests.
It was fortunate that Lin Fan was kind-hearted and didn't pursue the matter.
Otherwise, if Wang Yang and the others had decided to make a fuss, it would have been hard to handle!
"Since it was a misunderstanding, we won't blame you."
"Xiao Yang, if you don't understand something, don't make random comments to avoid making a fool of yourself."
Wang Yang and the others exchanged glances and decided not to make things difficult for Yang Xiuxiu.
However, the warmth in their smiles transformed into indifference.
"I, I...!!"
Facing the critical gazes,
Yang Xiuxiu's face burned, and her mouth was full of bitterness.
She wanted to tough it out and apologize.
But Lin Fan's words "stranger" completely blocked any chance of reconciliation.
At this moment, she regretted it thoroughly.
She wished she could slap herself silly!
If she had known the other party was so powerful, she shouldn't have been so stubborn.
But alas, there's no cure for regret in this world.
No matter how much turmoil was in Yang Xiuxiu's heart, or how uncomfortable she felt, it was all in vain.
"Alright, line up, one by one."
After a while, when Lin Fan finished giving acupuncture to Master Song, he nodded at Wang Yang and the others, who were eagerly waiting.
"Thank you, Mr. Lin, thank you, Mr. Lin!"
Master Jiang and Master Song exchanged glances, both showing intense excitement.
Their qi felt full, as if their meridians were about to burst.
It was clearly a sign of a major breakthrough in their martial arts realm!
Thank heavens for their good fortune, thank Mr. Lin for his great mercy.
From now on, the three of them could make a name for themselves in the Imperial Capital and join the ranks of grandmasters!
"No need to thank me. I've helped you reach Qi Condensation, so you must be good people and not bully others, or I can return you to your original state."
Lin Fan said faintly as he performed acupuncture on Wang Yang, without looking up.
"Rest assured, Mr. Lin, the three of us will strictly follow your teachings!"
The three masters replied solemnly.
Even though this young man was much younger than them,
In their hearts, they had already begun treating him as an elder!
"Brother Lin, are the three of them Qi Condensation Grandmasters now?"
At this moment,
Wang Yang's eyes widened, and his eyes shone brightly.
The young warriors around them were also moved.
It was known that once one reached Qi Condensation, they were sure to be recruited by prestigious families in the Imperial Capital.
Even if they couldn't be used, they would try to maintain good relations!
For a moment, the crowd looked at the three masters with renewed respect and admiration.
Many were even eager to make connections, eager not to be left behind!
"Otherwise, why don't you test your skills against the three of them?"
Lin Fan glanced at Wang Yang and gestured toward Masters Song and Jiang with his mouth.
"No need, no need, with Brother Lin's acknowledgment, who the hell would be stupid enough to doubt it?"
Wang Yang laughed awkwardly but intentionally spoke loudly.
The remaining crowd also looked at Yang Xiuxiu, their eyes teasing.
They weren't stupid; they could see through her ulterior motives,
persistently staying to have Lin Fan help clear her meridians!
Hmph, refusing to apologize before, now you regret it, don't you?
Such a great opportunity in front of you, and you foolishly let it slip by!
"Why are you crying? Be thankful they didn't hold it against you, and you still have the nerve to cry?"
Seeing Yang Xiuxiu trembling, her eyes brimming with tears, finally pouring out uncontrollably.
Master Yang on the hospital bed, both heartbroken and utterly disappointed, scolded her angrily.
"You, you all side with him, you all bully me, bully everyone!"
With a sob, Yang Xiuxiu finally broke down.
Covering her face with her hands, she couldn't bear to stay any longer.
Crying, she rushed out of the ward.
"Don't look at me. It's her fate. It's all your fault for spoiling her, letting her develop such a stubborn temper!"
Under the expectant gaze of his wife,
Master Yang, even angrier, gestured towards the door.
"Get out! All of you, get out. Don't hinder Mr. Lin while he's treating patients and saving lives!"
