Yang Chen didn’t speak further, he expressionlessly cut the call. Fact is, if this phone wasn’t a gift from Lin Ruoxi, he might have already crushed it into pieces.

In a flash the accelerator was floored, although it was peak hour with highly congested traffic, the roaring engine made a substantial number of cars obediently give way.

The white BMW blew past like a hurricane, provoking a countless number of rebukes, but all of these didn’t matter to Yang Chen. At that moment, in Yang Chen’s eyes there was only a straight path, there were no traffic laws, no traffic lights, what he wanted was speed, speed and more speed!

On the route which usually required more than 20 minutes, Yang Chen, like a missile, had spent less than 10 minutes to reach his destination.

In front of the villa, the car came to a screeching halt, throwing up a cloud of smoke and dust.

At that moment, it was already dusk. The waning golden light scattered across the spacious and top grade villa area of Dragon Garden. This caused the trees to reflect a hint of red, while causing the grass to appear like a river of gold, and the landscape to be exceptionally beautiful.

But Yang Chen simply didn’t have the mood to appreciate this rare view. After getting out the car, he walked towards the villa’s main door with a grave expression.

Before Yang Chen had reached the door, it was vigorously opened. The figure of Lin Kun, with an upright posture and in a suit came walking out, his face that originally looked smart and mature instead seemed shady and excited in this moment. It was as if he could foresee that he would be able to take revenge against Yang Chen for the humiliation he brought onto him.

Behind him, were 5 young men that wore identical clothing; black tight short-sleeved shirts. From their bulging muscles it wasn’t difficult to tell that they had unordinary combat skills.

"Haha. Bastard, you really have the guts to come back here, I thought you were frightened to the point of being too afraid to return." Lin Kun slanted his head, raising the corner of his eye. His eyes revealed deep hatred from within.

Yang Chen sighed.

It seems like my temperament has indeed mellowed. Otherwise, simply based on that line of profanity from him, there would have been enough reason to slice off his tongue.

Unenthusiastically, he stared at Lin Kun and asked, "Where is Ruoxi and Wang Ma……?"

The moment those words were spoken, two figures walked out from the villa’s door.

Building The Lotus Empire "Young Master, Young Master be careful!" By the door, Wang Ma who was wearing an apron supported the pale-faced Lin Ruoxi out.

Lin Ruoxi hadn’t changed out of her office clothing, it was like her cool and radiating pretty face had lost its soul. Her gaze was gloomy, her hair seemed messy, and she blankly stared at the floor without any focus, as if everything that was happening in front of her eyes was of no relation to her.

If one was to say this scene of Ruoxi made Yang Chen feel some pain in his heart, then the red handprint on Wang Ma’s face instead made a murderous look flash through Yang Chen’s eyes……

It was a pity, Lin Kun evidently didn’t notice such a change in Yang Chen’s expression.

"Brat that sells mutton skewers, let me tell you, since you returned here today, you asked for it. My brothers’ fists and kicks have no eyes, if you wish to receive less of a beating, then kneel on the ground and kowtow to me dozens of times, then lick my leather shoes clean, and obediently walk into the garbage bin. Perhaps I would let you off with that, and let you get lost!" Lin Kun laughed weirdly, his voice seemed to include traces of madness.

"Lin Kun……" Yang Chen raised his head, and coldly gazed at this insolent man in front of his eyes, "I seem to have told you before, I as a person, hate being threatened the most. You can threaten me, but you better be prepared to bear the consequences of it."

"I’m threatening you! Bastard! What can you do!? Do you have the ability to knock down these 5 brothers of mine!?" From anger into laughter, Lin Kun roared out.

Yang Chen didn’t speak more, step by step he closed in onto Lin Kun.

The 5 hired thugs obviously didn’t take Yang Chen seriously, after all, judging solely by appearance, this youngster simply didn’t have the strength to retaliate. So when they saw Yang Chen approaching, only a single man walked forward, he looked at Yang Chen with contempt while walking towards Yang Chen.

Yang Chen was too lazy to look at the black-clothed man blocking the way, seeing the black-clothed man raise his arms and swing his fist at high speed, as if it went through precise calculations, Yang Chen also swung a fist to receive it!

"Bam!"

The two fists collided, and a cracking sound actually came from it, but the result that emerged was something that left everybody present incomparably shocked!

"OWW!!"

The man who took the initiative to raise his fists had a warped expression, he hugged the fist he swung, and kneeled onto the ground in pain!

"Hand……Hand……" Bean sized drops of sweat dripped down, the man actually felt that all the bones in his whole arm were smashed into pieces. After feeling the severe waves of pain from it, he fainted on the spot!

Before the remaining 4 thugs seemed to have gained awareness of the situation, Yang Chen had already walked forward.

"Quickly! Quickly go up and fight!" Lin Kun felt that something was amiss, and commanded them in a flurry.

Only then did the 4 men fiendishly launch their kicks at Yang Chen, intending to bring Yang Chen down onto the ground.

But when the 4 men’s attacks landed on Yang Chen’s body, they suddenly realized, it didn’t matter whether the kick landed on Yang Chen’s chest, stomach, thigh or wherever, the attacks didn’t even make Yang Chen’s body flinch, as if their kicks landed on a thick and heavy iron plate, or a gigantic boulder, their strength was simply insufficient to cause any form of harm towards this monster!

The 4 men immediately had their backs full of cold sweat.

This fella, is his body made of steel?!

Yang Chen’s gaze had been rigidly set on Lin Kun in front. After receiving the attacks, he casually raised his hands formed into the shape of knives. The 4 pitiful hired thugs basically didn’t have any chance to launch another attack or jump away before they felt their vision turn blurry, every single one of them had their nape fiercely struck with a chop!

What the others saw seemed to be just Yang Chen’s figure gently wafting past, when the 4 originally healthy and robust men fell onto the ground, unconscious.

At this moment, Lin Kun feels a wave of regret bubbling inside him, however he doesn’t feel that it is a mistake to take revenge against Yang Chen. He instead feels that he should’ve asked ‘the person’ helping him for a few more helpers! Chapter 52: It’s Your Turn

"It’s your turn." Yang Chen stood face to face with Lin Kun, looking at Lin Kun the same way a butcher looked at a piece of meat on the chopping block. Tranquilly he asked, "Do you want a broken leg or a broken arm? If you wanna die, I could also help you with that."

He isn’t joking!

Only then did Lin Kun react, because this was the first time he felt murderous intent from somebody’s eyes, stark naked and true murderous intent!

He will really kill me!

"You…… You…… Stay away……" Lin Kun was afraid and slowly retreated trying to gain some distance from Yang Chen, but behind him was the staircase and the villa’s main door.

Suddenly, Lin Kun turned his head, looked at the blank and emotionless Lin Ruoxi, and loudly shouted, "Little slut! This wild man of yours wants to break your father’s legs! Aren’t you going to discipline him!?"

Just after he said that, he felt a hand akin to a pair of steel pliers grip onto his chin. A voice so cold that it felt like metal that had been cooled in the snow traveled to his eardrums, "Your mouth really stinks, perhaps I should first cut off your tongue, put it back into your mouth, then sew your mouth shut…… When you get hungry, you can only eat your own tongue…… Tell me, what do you think about this idea?"

"Wu!! Wu Wu!!"

Lin Kun was so frightened that his face turned ashen and his eyes opened wide. But if he struggled even for a smidgen, Yang Chen’s hand that gripped onto his chin would exert a lot more strength, he was already in so much pain that he didn’t dare to move an inch.

At this moment, Lin Ruoxi who stood by the door slowly raised her head, a little bit of luster had finally returned to her beautiful spiritless eyes. She looked at Yang Chen with incomparably complicated emotions, then glanced at Lin Kun who looked like he was about to pee in his pants, dispiritedly she said, "Yang Chen, let him go, don’t scare him anymore……"

Lin Ruoxi’s tone wasn’t as cold and indifferent as usual, she spoke very lightly, but it was exactly a line like that, which somehow managed to appease Yang Chen’s scorching hot anger.

She resembles that person too much……

Yang Chen was a little helpless, the figure that he deliberately tried to forget flashed through his mind, leaving him momentarily entranced.

Yang Chen released his hand, and Lin Kun who was in pain felt unresigned while fearfully dodging to the side, he carefully looked at Yang Chen, while gasping heavily.

"Dad, it was Xu Zhihong that had you come, right? These people should have also been given to you by him." Lin Ruoxi calmly looked at Lin Kun, and lightly asked.

Lin Kun’s face revealed malevolence, and he glared at Yang Chen with hatred, "So what if that’s the case! Young Master Xu is helping me get rid of this bastard! This kind of asshole wants to plunder the assets of our Lin Family, I’ll definitely never agree to this!"

"Dad……" Lin Ruoxi mournfully called out, with pain in her eyes, "Dad, don’t you know you are just being used by the Xu family? You are helping Xu Zhihong create trouble for me! Do you know what kind of poor state the company is in now!? Dad…… Please sober up a little! Xu Zhihong is totally different from who you think he is!"

"Nonsense!!" Lin Kun roared, "You little slut! Don’t pretend to have good intentions, don’t think that just because you call me ‘Dad’ that I will believe that an unfilial woman like you is kind! If you really wanted the best for me from the bottom of your heart, then at that time you shouldn’t have snatched away everything that belonged to me!! I should be the legitimate successor of Yu Lei!!
The Wielder of Death Magic If it wasn’t for you playing tricks, why did that dead old woman suddenly change her will, and hand Yu Lei International to a 20-year old little baby!"

Lin Ruoxi’s legs staggered, if she wasn’t supported by Wang Ma, she would’ve fallen long ago. Her complexion turned increasingly pale and helpless, and she finally couldn’t hold back the tears from pouring down, "Dad…… How can you think this way…… She is my grandmother, your mother……"

"Then how should I think!? I want you to marry Young Master Xu, yet you refused a thousand times! Isn’t it just because you’re afraid that after marriage the position of Yu Lei’s CEO will change owners!? Otherwise, based on Young Master Xu’s qualifications, why would a slut like you who fakes being noble and virtuous refuse!?" Lin Kun’s rage turned into laughter, "Hahahaha! I hit the mark, do you feel so ashamed that you want to kill yourself!??"

Lin Ruoxi could only feel the sky spin and the earth twist, even breathing had become difficult, it was if her organs were submerged in quicksilver. Sparkling tears flowed out of her eyes like water from a dam burst and fell onto the ground.

At that moment, the always cool and noble queen-like lady couldn’t help but cry, she even cried with such grievance. Lin Ruoxi covered her face with her hands as she sobbed, and the sobs drowned the words she spoke.

"When Mom left this world, you didn’t even come home to take a look because of a lover you had outside…… When Grandma left this world, you waited for her to enter the coffin before you made your appearance, and only asked about matters of inheritance…… From my memories, other than living a life of debauchery outside, and asking Grandma for money, you basically showed no interest in the company’s matters…… How can Grandma feel at ease leaving the company to you……" In pain, Lin Ruoxi looked at Lin Kun, bit her lip and said, "Dad, do you not understand what you’re doing!?"

Lin Kun’s face looked sinister as he coldly said, "I did all that because they forced me to! If it wasn’t for those two women who ought to have died long ago holding me back, would I need to lower my head and beg them for money!? There was obviously so many company shares, why did I only receive such a small amount of money!? I am the family’s only man, shouldn’t I be the one calling the shots!? A slut like you only knows how to find excuses! Excuses! Excuses!!!"

"Your words are really the same as farts……"

Yang Chen truly found it hard to listen further, he really didn’t understand how a woman like Lin Ruoxi could have such a retarded and insane father. Perhaps it was heaven messing with people, or it could be that hateful people had to be pitiful as well.

In a flash, Yang Chen’s hand had grabbed onto Lin Kun’s neck, he exerted a little strength and Lin Kun’s face flushed from being unable to breathe. Lin Kun’s body erratically jerked, but was unable to break free.

"If this was handled my way, you would’ve died at least 7 or 8 times today……" Said Yang Chen indifferently, he looked towards the slightly nervous-looking Lin Ruoxi by the door, then said, "However, in the end my wife is more softhearted, if I killed a father like you, she definitely wouldn’t forgive me easily."

With that said, Yang Chen released his grip on Lin Kun’s neck, but followed up with a lightning quick chop at Lin Kun’s nape!

Lin Kun’s eyes rolled over, and he immediately fainted onto the ground.

"Yang Chen! You…… What did you do to him?" Lin Ruoxi was still worried as she walked over, and squatted down to check for breathing from Lin Kun’s nose, confirming that he didn’t die, she sighed a breath of relief.

Anyhow, blood was thicker than water.

"Leave him to me." Yang Chen stooped down and placed Lin Kun’s body on his shoulder, then he walked towards the nearby garbage bin.

Lin Ruoxi panicked, and hurriedly stopped him, "Don’t, don’t throw him in, this is enough……"

"I didn’t cripple or kill him, that is already giving you a lot of face. He treats you like that, yet you still think of him as your father, I’m speechless. However, I hope you also consider my feelings, no matter what you think in your heart, as of right now, I am your husband."

Yang Chen’s tone was flat and dull, but every word was like a law that didn’t allow disobedience. With that all said, he directly walked towards the garbage bin.

Right now I am your husband!

Right now I am your husband!!

Lin Ruoxi’s arms hung loose as she stood in the same place as if her soul left her, gazing at Yang Chen’s back without a word.

After Yang Chen once again threw Lin Kun’s body into the garbage bin, he heard Wang Ma shouting just as he was about to turn around……

"Miss!!" Chapter 53: Half A Month

Midsummer’s night descended late, enveloping the city of Zhong Hai with what seemed to be gentle darkness, only the dazzling neon lights allowed the pedestrians to see each other’s faces.

Along the bi-directional 8 lane highway encircling the city, one could see the countless traffic that looked like shooting stars, some were entering the heart of the city, while some were leaving the oppressive concrete garden.

On the roadside greenery in the north of Zhong Hai and along the Yangtze river, were thinly spread street lights that had insects dancing around the lights. This was a quiet scene that was hard to come by, even though that moment still had the scorching heat like daytime.

Close by was the meandering river that seemed to have no end, like a belt of jade that fell from the firmament, mutually echoing with the Milky Way in the skies, and mirroring a long string of white buildings by the river……

This was the most expensive hospital in Zhong Hai, the quiet and secluded environment let their patients recuperate better. But similarly, the bills that came with it were so high that ordinary folks would jump back in fright.

At this moment, in the hospital’s Intensive Care department, on a spacious and serene corridor, Yang Chen and Wang Ma sat on a bench specially placed for people to wait, quietly waiting for something outside the Intensive Care Unit.

Yang Chen had remained taciturn for a long while, before he was finally a little impatient, and dug his hand into his pocket to extract a cigarette, but he suddenly remembered that this was a hospital, and could only put it back angrily. Sighing, he stood up, and paced back and forth.

"Young Master." Wang Ma’s eyes were red, she had cried not too long ago, and spoke with worry, "Young Master, why haven’t the doctors and nurses come out yet? Miss shouldn’t have any life threatening issues right?

"Don’t worry, although I’m no doctor, I still have some medical knowledge. Ruoxi will be fine." Yang Chen consoled her. The scene of him sending Lin Ruoxi to the hospital in the evening replayed over in his mind, and he too had difficulties setting himself at ease.

Right after Yang Chen had dropped Lin Kun into the garbage bin, he turned around and immediately saw Lin Ruoxi’s legs turn weak as she stood on the lawn and fell onto the ground.

Like a bullet, Yang Chen sped towards Lin Ruoxi’s side and held her, and he noticed that she was unconscious!

His past experiences allowed him to remain calm, unlike the flustered Wang Ma. He calmly took out his phone, called for an ambulance, and carried Lin Ruoxi back into the house.

After a simple check, he discovered that Lin Ruoxi had a high fever, so he immediately had Wang Ma bring over a cold towel and other first-aid items, and took care of her until the ambulance came and brought her to the hospital.

Due to the string of incidents, Yang Chen’s heart was in a mess. Although this woman who was as cold as ice and who had no understanding of expressions never gave him a look with kindness or happiness, but once something like this happened to her, Yang Chen helplessly realized that he was truly worried for her from the bottom of his heart.

Is it because she resembles her too much? Or is it because she is my legal wife? Perhaps, it is only because of her.

While Yang Chen was in a state of emotional disorder, the Intensive Care Unit was opened, Wang Ma moved up to hold onto the doctor’s elbow and asked, "Doctor, how’s my family’s Miss?"

The doctor wore a soothing smile, "Don’t worry, the crucial time has passed, and the fever has been brought down, a good rest is needed next."

"That’s good……That’s good……" Wang Ma was so happy that she shed tears again, "Thank you doctor."

The doctor took a look at the information on his phone, and in a reserved manner he asked, "Excuse me, does Miss Lin have a lot of pressure from work recently?"

Wang Ma blanked for a moment, and honestly replied, "That’s right doctor, my family’s Miss has always been working very hard, however these days she works overnight frequently, is there a problem?"
