The two men looked at Fu Shiyan in horror.
"Embezzling public funds, cutting corners on government projects, hit-and-run while driving drunk, any one of these charges, if disclosed, would have severe consequences," Fu Shiyan crossed his hands on his lap and smiled slightly. "Do I need to say more?"
Fu Song and Fu Lin nearly fainted, their blood pressure skyrocketed, their minds went blank—what else could they say?
"Since my uncles have nothing else to say, I’ll take my leave first."
Fu Shiyan stood up and walked towards the exit.
"Fu Shiyan, you stop right there! You, you’re trying to drive us to our deaths! You hate us, hate us for moving to H City, for betraying your branch of the family! You blame us for the death of your parents! So now, you want to leave us to die! Fu Shiyan, you’re too cruel!"
Fu Shiyan paused, turned his head to look at them, "I have never thought that way. Could it be that Uncle Four and Uncle Five have a guilty conscience and think so?"
Fu Song and Fu Lin were choked with anger.
"Fu Shiyan! We’re all family, do you have to be this ruthless?"
Fu Shiyan’s eyebrows raised slightly. "Ruthless?" His eyes darkened. "How come I feel it’s not enough?"
Fu Song and Fu Lin looked at Fu Shiyan’s hawk-like gaze, their hearts skipped a beat, as if a beast lurking in the darkness had set its sights on them.
The two men suddenly got the chills.
"Shiyan, the death of your parents was an accident, we, we can’t be blamed for that, can we?"
Fu Shiyan laughed lightly, "I haven’t said anything, what are Uncles Four and Five afraid of?"
Fu Song and Fu Lin’s faces twitched.
They felt like they were being toyed with.
"Fu Shiyan! I’m telling you, if I have no way out, I won’t let you off either!"
Fu Song realized that Fu Shiyan truly didn’t care about their fate. Gritting his teeth in anger and rushing towards Fu Shiyan.
Fu Shiyan did not move.
Duan Jianchuan took a quick step to the side and swept with his foot.
Fu Song immediately fell backward onto the ground, his back hitting the floor hard, fortunate that there was a thick carpet.
Still, Fu Song’s face turned pale from the pain, unable to get up for a while.
A cold sweat broke out on Fu Lin’s face. "Shi, Shiyan, was it necessary to go this far..."
"I should be the one saying that," Fu Shiyan replied in a leisurely tone. "Think about your children, if you don’t want to implicate your entire family, it’s best not to come looking for me again."
With that, Fu Shiyan turned without a glance at Fu Song on the ground and left the private room.
Duan Jianchuan adjusted his clothes and followed suit.
There was a loud clang.
Hearing the door open and then close, Fu Lin finally snapped to his senses and hurriedly helped Fu Song up.
Seeing the pain on Fu Song’s face, a cold sweat broke out on Fu Lin as well, not daring to stay in the hotel for long and quickly supporting Fu Song to the hospital.
After Jiangli and Xia Xin separated at the room’s doorway, he returned to his own room with Liao Qianqian.
As soon as they entered, Fu’er appeared as well.
Jiangli acted as if he didn’t see him, directly releasing Lin Yurong’s soul as well.
Lin Yurong looked somewhat listless.
With the Yan Mountain Formation broken, her aversion to H City disappeared.
But her spirit was still not well.
She looked disheartened upon her release.
Jiangli knew what she was thinking and said to both of them, "Liao Qianqian, now that your wish has been fulfilled, once Lin Yurong’s affairs here are settled, I will send you both away together. Is that okay?"
Liao Qianqian naturally had no objections. "I’ll follow the Abbot’s guidance."
