Chapter 53: Chapter 53: I Offer a Dowry of 200,000

At that mont, Wu Xia was filled with a commanding and domineering presence.

It left everyone stunned.

If Xiao Nihuang or Long Zhantian had been narrating at the ti, they would have been surprised.

Because the powerful aura that Wu Xia was now exuding was exactly like that of Xiao Nihuang’s regal bearing, even more overbearing than Xiao Nihuang herself.

Lin Jiao’s eyes brimd with emotion, but she did not want to upset her family.

"Xia, don’t resort to violence; let’s talk things through," she pleaded.

"Okay," murmured Wu Xia with a nod, before shoving Lin Yong so hard that he stumbled backwards, almost falling to the ground. As Lin Yong was about to charge over again in a furious roar, Wu Xia said coldly,

"I’ll offer two hundred thousand for the bride price!"

Lin Yong’s raised hand froze mid-air, his eyes wide with shock.

His parents imdiately rushed over to stop him, their faces instantly beaming with smiles, "You’re called Xia, right? Were you serious about what you just said?"

"Don’t joke about this; two hundred thousand is not a small sum. Can you really afford it?" they questioned.

"He can afford it!" Lin Jiao imdiately interjected, "Xia’s dical skills are formidable. Not long ago, he saved the daughter of the town’s Wealthy Liu and was given over two hundred thousand!"

"Moreover, I’ve been collecting paynts for Xia these past few days. He treats the villagers, and we make thousands of yuan daily!"

Boom!

"What?"

"You can make a few thousand treating illnesses in the countryside?"

"Are you bluffing?"

The Lin family mbers simply did not believe it, but the villagers watching imdiately exclaid,

"Don’t doubt it, I personally saw Doctor Wu save a life that day. It was simply miraculous. Even Wealthy Liu said he would have given two million, and he refused it!"

"That’s right, I was there too. And these past few days, I heard there erged a miracle doctor in Wujia Gully, specifically treating difficult and diverse illnesses, very formidable—the one they’re talking about is Doctor Wu!"

"Doctor Wu, you’re here at just the right ti. Later, could you also take a mont to help us with our health issues?"

All of a sudden, everyone started clamoring and crowding around Wu Xia, with so even extending their blessings to him and Lin Jiao.

Never before had the Lin family felt such treatnt; for a mont, they were overjoyed, completely ignoring Song Yang, whom they had regarded as a prized catch just monts earlier.

Song Yang stood in the background, his face darkening to the extre.

"So, you all find this amusing, playing

for a fool?" he thundered coldly,

"You just took my money, settled on the bride price, and confird the wedding date. Now you’re backing out; I’m going to accuse you of fraud!"

"Moreover, you’ll also have to compensate

for my losses!"

The Lin family mbers snapped to attention, Mrs. Lin saying cheerily, "Song, we’ll refund your bride price. Go back ho, alright? Jiaojiao doesn’t agree either and there’s nothing we can do about that!"

"Right, right, Song, we haven’t taken anything from you. Consider this an amicable breakup!"

Lin Yong chid in as well, "No harm done, we’re still friends!"

"Friends?" Song Yang scoffed, his face turning ashen, "What about the banquet I prepared in town, the house I arranged? Isn’t all that money?"

"You turn your back on your word, so you must bear the losses!"

"I’ve already called the police, they’re on their way here. If you want to break up amicably, you can explain it to them!"

The previously peaceful atmosphere instantly turned tense.

Those villagers hastily retreated, afraid of getting involved.

The Lin family was at a loss, simple folks greedy for a good deal, with no idea how to handle the situation.

Wu Xia gently patted Lin Jiao’s arm and walked over to Song Yang.

"Song Yang, is it? I’m giving you one last chance, take your money and scram, and don’t bother

again. I can pretend nothing happened, and you can continue being the fraudster you are!"

"Hehe," Song Yang sneered coldly, "Kid, you’ve slandered

twice now, and I’ve recorded it all. This is my evidence to sue you!"

"Oh, you recorded it?" Wu Xia wasn’t afraid in the slightest, laughing as he said, "So it seems you don’t want this last chance then?"

Song Yang snorted coldly, "Hmph, my opportunities are always in my own hands; I don’t need soone else to give them to !"

"That’s true!" Wu Xia pursed his lips, "They are indeed in your hands!"

He turned to Zhang Lin, "Zhang Lin, you put on your clothes first; you’ll be cracking the case soon!"

Zhang Lin raised her eyebrows slightly, not understanding why Wu Xia would say that, but feeling an inexplicable trust in him, she quickly donned her uniform.

Just when everyone was looking confused, Song Yang actually started playing the recorded phone conversation on his phone.

"Mr. Liu, don’t worry, the siblings I deceived this ti are definitely no problem!"

"Rest assured, that 88,000 I gave them was just a front. When I leave, I’ll have her brother sneak it out."

"That idiot listens to

very well. I’ll just say it’s for getting him a wife overseas!"

"Oh, and about the banquet, I didn’t spend a di. I’ll have their family pay for it afterward!"

"Haha, of course, as the smartest man in Northern Myanmar, how could I possibly let you down?"

Everyone’s eyes widened as they listened incredulously to the conversation inside.

Song Yang was sweating profusely, desperate to shut off the recording, but he couldn’t do it.

In his anxiety, he even thought of smashing his phone.

Zhang Lin was ready; she lunged forward, apprehended Song Yang, and avoided his phone.

"Song Yang, I am arresting you on suspicion of fraud. If you resist, I will use force."

Song Yang struggled furiously, "Let go of , you just said you weren’t on duty!"

"I wasn’t on duty just now, but I am now," Zhang Lin replied indifferently.

Song Yang, because of his recent insults toward Lin Yong, found Lin Yong imdiately binding him with rope and unleashing a torrent of punches and kicks upon him.

Zhang Lin pretended not to see and imdiately reported the situation.

She hadn’t expected the case to be solved so quickly.

Since Wu Xia was waiting for Zhang Lin, he opened a pharmacy at the Lin family’s place, treating the local villagers.

Lin Jiao’s parents ca to help, and though they only prescribed dicine without dispensing it, so paid a few bucks, so more than ten. For issues like fractures, he treated them on the spot and charged twenty or thirty.

Soon, they had collected several hundred yuan.

The elderly couple’s eyes were blooming with joy.

Wu Xia didn’t ask for the money but told them to use it to buy alcohol, then ntioned that in a couple of days when his elder brother returned, he would bring the money to formally propose.

Originally, Lin Jiao’s parents had wanted her to stay at ho, but Lin Jiao insisted on returning with Wu Xia, which made it hard for them to ask her to stay.

After all, Lin Jiao was already living at the Wu family’s place; now, it was rely about offering a bride price.

After Zhang Lin’s teammates arrived, she handed over Song Yang to them and explained the situation. Then she drove Wu Xia and the others back.

In the car, Lin Jiao and Wu Xia sat in the back, cuddling in Wu Xia’s arms, the two of them very affectionate.

Zhang Lin, with a strong hint of jealousy, said, "You two should be a bit considerate of my feelings; I like Wu Xia too!"

"Lin Jiao, let’s discuss sothing," she proposed.

"How about you marry Wu Xia officially, and ngyue and I will be his mistresses? We don’t need a formal status, and we can all live together. What do you think?"
