The Cold and Beautiful CEO's Strongest Son-in-Law

Chapter 023 Seeking Revenge

Chapter 023 Seeking Revenge

Yesterday, after watching Lin Fan enter the room, Shen Yunlan immediately contacted the Yang family in Shancheng.

After making contact, I visited her today with the aim of getting Su Ruowei to divorce Lin Fan and then marry her off to Yang Long.

The talks went well in the morning, and the dowry was even agreed upon.

Unexpectedly, the Yang family went bankrupt by the afternoon, a speed that left Shen Yunlan speechless.

After the Yang family went bankrupt, Yang Long's father instantly changed his attitude, from being fawned over to fawning over them, hoping to use Shen Yunlan's relationship as the daughter-in-law of the Su family to help the Su family make a comeback.

But who was Shen Yunlan? Upon seeing the Yang family go bankrupt, she quickly slipped away and made her escape.

"That shouldn't be the case. How could the Yang family go bankrupt so easily?" Shen Yunlan muttered softly.

Lin Fan walked out of the kitchen, placed the food on the table, and glanced at Shen Yunlan, who was sighing beside him.

"Lin Fan, let me ask you, where did you go today?" Shen Yunlan asked deliberately, trying to stir up trouble.

"I went out for a walk," Lin Fan replied absentmindedly, then went upstairs and knocked on the door: "Ruowei, come and eat."

"I'm so angry!" Shen Yunlan shouted, and just as she was about to start cursing, she heard a knock on the door.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

The knocking grew louder and louder, then became very urgent.

Judging from the sound, it could be either a creditor demanding repayment or an enemy seeking revenge, but Shen Yunlan couldn't think of any enemies she might have.

Indeed, Shen Yunlan only knew ordinary people. She did have enemies, but they were all over trivial matters and would never go so far as to come to her house and bang on her door.

"Who could it be?" Shen Yunlan wondered as she walked towards the door. Just as she was about to peek through the crack, the door was kicked open and she was knocked to the ground.

"Where's Su Ruowei! Tell her to come out!"

Two men in black suits entered; the one in the lead was over 50, and the other looked to be in his early 20s.

Shen Yunlan lay on the ground and looked closely. She recognized the people who came. Wasn't this Yang Hongtao, the head of the Yang family in Shancheng, and his son Yang Long?

"Yang Hongtao, what brings you here?"

Shen Yunlan helped herself up and continued slowly:

"Didn't your family go bankrupt? Aren't you afraid I'll call the police and arrest you for trespassing on my property?!"

Enraged, Yang Hongtao rushed forward and shoved Shen Yunlan to the ground again, cursing loudly:

"You old bastard, go ahead and call the police to arrest me! I've already lost everything, and even if I die, I'll drag your family down with me!"

Startled, Shen Yunlan frantically pulled out her phone to call the police.

"Snapped!"

Yang Long lunged forward and slapped the phone out of Shen Yunlan's hand.

"It's all Su Ruowei's fault! That woman has a jinxed face! If you hadn't wanted her to marry me, would my family have gone bankrupt?" Yang Long roared.

"Exactly! Tianwang Group went bankrupt because he married Su Ruowei!" Yang Hongtao said irrationally.

Shen Yunlan was so frightened that she lost her mind and nodded repeatedly in agreement. All she wanted now was to save her own life, and she didn't care at all about her daughter being smeared.

Lin Fan stood at the top of the stairs and saw this scene. He was suddenly filled with anger. Although Shen Yunlan treated him very badly, she was still Su Ruowei's mother, not to mention that Su Ruowei had been cursed for no reason.

Lin Fan hurried downstairs, and the moment he went down, Su Ruowei also pushed open the door and came out.

"Mom, are you alright?" Lin Fan asked as he helped Shen Yunlan up.

Seeing Lin Fan's reaction, Shen Yunlan not only didn't thank him, but instead grabbed Lin Fan's arm and shouted at Yang Hongtao:

"It's not my daughter's fault, it's all this kid's fault! He's the jinx, his family is destined to go bankrupt, and he brought bad luck into your family!"

"That kid slapped me today, and I haven't even settled the score with him yet!" Yang Long said angrily.

"That's right, it's all because of him. You met him today, and he infected you with his bad luck!" Shen Yunlan tried her best to explain, pulling Lin Fan forward.

"Mom, what are you doing!" Su Ruowei rushed to Shen Yunlan's side, trying to pull Lin Fan over.

"There are only two of them, why are you so scared?" Lin Fan asked Shen Yunlan helplessly.

"Right now it's just Ruowei and me at home, plus you, you good-for-nothing. How are we supposed to deal with those two, especially since they're fearless!" Shen Yunlan shouted, then turned to Yang Hongtao and said:

"Revenge for grudges, settle scores for grievances! It's all his fault, it's all that kid's fault!"

"This kid has to die! I want Su Ruowei too!" Yang Long roared, pulling a gleaming dagger from his pocket.

Shen Yunlan instantly realized that the whole "husband-killing" thing was just a pretense; the other party's goal was simply to vent their anger, kill Lin Fan, and defile Su Ruowei.

The Yang family father and son were prepared to die; today they were finished!

Yang Long lunged forward, raising his dagger to stab Lin Fan.

Shen Yunlan closed her eyes in fright, and Su Ruowei also closed her eyes, not daring to look.

Then a mournful cry rang out, startling Shen Yunlan, who trembled and immediately begged for mercy:

"Spare us! Just kill Lin Fan, please spare my mother and me!"

"son!"

Yang Hongtao's shout made Shen Yunlan and Su Ruowei quickly open their eyes to check the situation.

Yang Long was lying on the ground, groaning in pain, with the dagger still stuck in his shoulder.

Yang Hongtao raised his right hand, trembling, and pointed at Lin Fan: "Do you want to kill my son? Murder is punishable by death!"

Lin Fan sneered, bent down and pulled the dagger from Yang Long's shoulder. The next second, the dagger appeared on Yang Hongtao's shoulder as well.

"what!"

After letting out a wail, Yang Hongtao staggered back in pain.

"I'll make you pay!" Yang Long got up and rubbed his shoulders.

Lin Fan rushed forward, grabbed Yang Long's throat with his right hand, and slammed Yang Long against the wall.

"What price?"

"No, I was just showing off." Yang Long laughed awkwardly, then winced in pain from his shoulder injury.

"Son!" Despite the pain, Yang Hongtao threw a punch at Lin Fan.

Lin Fan caught a glimpse of Yang Hongtao's movements out of the corner of his eye, and suddenly reached out his left hand to grab Yang Hongtao's neck. With a little force, Yang Hongtao was also slammed against the wall.

Lin Fan held Yang Long on his right and Yang Hongtao on his left, both of whom were unable to move due to Lin Fan's chokehold.

"Do you have anything else to say?" Lin Fan sneered.

"No, no more."

Yang Hongtao and Yang Long said in unison, "We've become cowards."

Su Ruowei was shocked to see Lin Fan like this. Besides money, what else was Lin Fan hiding?

Shen Yunlan didn't think much of it, quickly stepped forward, and slapped Yang Long across the face: "You brat, still so arrogant?"

After hitting Yang Long, Shen Yunlan walked up to Yang Hongtao and slapped him as well: "You old bastard, I'll teach you to act all high and mighty in my house!"

Lin Fan frowned and looked at Shen Yunlan, surprised that she had changed her role so quickly.

"Even if these two die, it would be considered that we acted in self-defense," Shen Yunlan said disdainfully.
