Chapter 116: 116 Sorry for offending you, Third Elder of the Su Family! [2 more chapters] Chapter 116: 116 Sorry for offending you, Third Elder of the Su Family! [2 more chapters] The sudden car accident was bad enough, but for Lin Woyu to beco a vegetable was sothing Lin Yue never anticipated.
He had just co of age, didn’t have a driver’s license, naturally couldn’t buy a car, and could only take advantage of Lin Woyu’s inattention to steal her car and go out.
The incident that happened this weekend was also an accident. After the race ended, because his rank was too low, Lin Yue was ridiculed with terms like “yellow-haired kid.”
Young and impulsive, spurred on by others’ taunts, in a mont of anger, he smashed a few tables at a barbecue stand and drove off in the car.
Who would have thought that the other party would actually send four cars to surround and intercept him, seeking to vent their spite?
Now, Lin Yue was left with nothing but fear and a pounding heart.
He didn’t dare to imagine that if he had been the one driving at the ti, would he not be the one lying in the bed, turned into a vegetable?
If Lin Woyu truly couldn’t wake up again, half of the Lin Family would collapse!
In that case, how could he continue to enjoy a life of luxury?
“What are you saying?” Bai Jingxue, Lin Yue’s father, was startled when he heard this, “What happened? Why can’t your mother wake up?”
When Bai Jingxue was dating Lin Woyu, he knew that she was a descendant of the Lin Family.
Although she was from a branch family, there was always the possibility that she could one day rejoin the Lin Family Main House.
So Bai Jingxue didn’t mind even if both of his children took Lin Woyu’s surna.
But years passed, and he saw no sign of returning to the Yunjing main family. Even Lin Weilan seed to be subtly preventing it.
At this ti, Bai Jingxue t a wealthy divorced lady in Harbor City; relying on his good looks, he managed to charm this wealthy lady.
He swiftly divorced Lin Woyu and married into the An Family of Harbor City.
Although the An Family’s status in Harbor City wasn’t as high as the Kang Family, it was still a major force, its comprehensive strength not inferior to the Fang Family of Jiangcheng.
Bai Jingxue would certainly not stay in a branch of the Lin Family that couldn’t even return to the main house.
He did love Lin Woyu but not as much as the vanity he gained from power and status.
However, Bai Jingxue hadn’t anticipated such a serious incident happening to Lin Woyu.
Lin Yue stamred, “My mom, she was hit by a car while driving, the doctor said she’s beco a vegetable, Dad, you know half of the Lin Family’s economy relies on my mom, if she’s like this…”
“Alright, I’ll book the nearest flight to Jiangcheng,” Bai Jingxue interrupted him, “We’ll discuss everything when I arrive.”
Lin Yue looked at the darkening screen, pursed his lips, his heart pounding uncontrollably, unable to calm down.

After leaving Jiangcheng First Hospital, Ye Wanlan went to the dicinal herb market to select the herbs she needed.
She still wore a mask and a hat, not showing even a hint of her face, but the stall owners there were all very familiar with her.
This was a big custor, who would buy herbs by the tens of kilograms each ti.
The owner asked warmly, “Are you here for the sa herbs as last ti?”
“No, sothing else,” Ye Wanlan listed a few herb nas, “I want the best quality, money is not an issue.”
“Got it!” The owner quickly had people retrieve the requested herbs from the storeroom, packed them up, and handed them over to Ye Wanlan.
Ye Wanlan glanced at the ti.
Three-thirty in the morning.
It was late, but she could not rest.
The parcel from Global Center would take six hours to reach her hands, and there was still one hour left.
And with every minute Lin Woyu waited, the risk to her life increased.
Ye Wanlan let out a long breath and left the stall for the next one.
“Miss Ye!” Seeing the familiar figure, Bing He paused, then joyfully waved to her, “You’re here so late.”
Ye Wanlan rely gave him a slight nod and didn’t linger for small talk but continued walking forward.
In a fluster, Bing He turned and stuttered, “Yo-Young Master, I swear I haven’t upset Miss Ye, please understand!”
“Young Master, he’s useless,” said Tie Ma in a flat tone, “We’ve just received news that Miss Ye’s aunt, Miss Lin Woyu, has had an accident and is in the ICU. Miss Ye is busy getting dicine.”
Bing He was incredulous: “Tie-tie, you…”
How co you’re always blaming !
Yan Tingfeng’s expression cooled, and the pleasant aura around him abruptly turned violent.
Bing He and Tie Ma couldn’t help but take a step back.
“Mm, I’ve got it,” Yan Tingfeng laughed lightly, “Once she’s done buying dicine and starts looking for the culprit, you two start investigating. I’ll wait for her here.”
Bing He declared loudly, “Yes, Young Master, I will get it done quickly!”
By the ti Ye Wanlan finished buying all the herbs, forty minutes had passed. She was carrying large and small packages, yet her expression remained unchanged.
“Let help,” a gentle voice said. At the sa ti, she felt the weight on her wrist lighten.
Ye Wanlan looked up and t Yan Tingfeng’s gaze.
He had a pair of attractive phoenix eyes, shimring and brilliant, as if filled with the myriad stars of the Milky Way.
Being looked at in such a way, she felt as if she had fallen into that river of stars.
“Thank you,” Ye Wanlan said softly, “I’m in a bit of a rush today.”
“I know,” Yan Tingfeng turned his head slightly, saying indifferently, “Bing He, Tie Ma.”
Bing He and Tie Ma quickly ca over: “Sir, we’ve finished the investigation. Miss Ye, this is the information on the people responsible for your aunt’s car accident.”
Ye Wanlan looked at Yan Tingfeng with so surprise.
He seed too considerate, knowing in advance her next move would be to carefully investigate the matter.
“The person who’s always hanging around Little Gold Mountain, not much education, earning by collecting protection fees and such, and has been in and out of jail plenty of tis. Later, he went clean and started legitimate businesses,” Bing He frowned. “The owner of this barbecue stand, nicknad ‘Mang Hu’, is notoriously ferocious. He also has several brothers who’ve caused quite so trouble.”
“Mang Hu.” Ye Wanlan slowly uttered this na.
She closed her eyes, with a murderous intent already showing.
“Quite a reckless na,” Bing He comnted, “but this ti, he’s probably panicking. After all, a life was taken.”
Yan Tingfeng’s laugh was gentle, but his tone floated lightly, “Then let his recklessness turn into death.”
Bing He was serious, “Please leave it to , this is what I’m best at!”
The ringtone of a mobile phone rang, and Ye Wanlan answered.
“Hello? Yes, I’m at 43 Autumn Street,” she gave an address, “You can just deliver the express package here.”
Privileged Express delivery was outstanding, and within ten minutes, a courier arrived with a box that was very securely packaged.
He looked around sowhat blankly, not knowing who the recipient was.
“I’m here.”
A light voice ca from behind him. The courier was startled, turning around sharply to encounter a pair of eyes as blue as the ocean.
“Good, good day, your express delivery,” he handed over the box cautiously, “Miss YN, I need your signature.”
Ye Wanlan humd in acknowledgnt, took the pen, and wrote down the letters “YN” on the delivery receipt.
Not far away, Bing He scratched his head and whispered, “Young Master, that express slip looks like it’s from Privileged Express of Global Center.”
Global Center is the world’s economic, cultural, and artistic hub, with the most developed transportation and services.
But the higher the quality of the service, the more money it requires.
And Privileged Express isn’t just available for purchase; it requires status and identity too.
Yan Tingfeng’s expression remained indifferent, “Does it concern you?”
“Ah, that, of course…” Bing He stamred even more.
Yan Tingfeng ignored him: “Miss Ye, shall I take you to the hospital?”
Without waiting for Ye Wanlan’s response, he smiled and added, “If you’re going to have surgery later, it will take a lot of energy, so it’s better not to drive yourself.”
Ye Wanlan’s brows moved slightly as she looked at him.
“Having observed Miss Ye’s driving skills from the passenger’s seat a few tis, I have learned a bit,” Yan Tingfeng said calmly, “I will make sure Miss Ye can trust my speed.”
Rong Yu, who was dragged out in the middle of the night, was disheveled in the wind: “…”
Was he just abandoned?
“Crack-”
With a tearing sound, Rong Yu watched the car speed away at an eerie pace.
Rong Yu: “…”
Ah, perhaps being left behind was for the best.
He would take a taxi instead; his life might be sowhat more secure that way.
Just as Rong Yu hailed a cab, he received a call from Rong Jingqiu.
“Little Yu, do you have any news about Miss Ye?” Rong Jingqiu asked, “I’ve been calling the mobile number she left , but I can’t get through.”
“That makes sense, because Student Ye’s family is in crisis,” Rong Yu sighed, “So people from her past, they’ve turned her aunt into a vegetable. She’s definitely still at the hospital, not in the mood to answer calls, but dad, you’re not sleeping late at night, are you up stargazing again?”
“What?!” Rong Jingqiu was both shocked and furious, “What kind of street people, even daring to harm the义妹 (sworn sister) of Rong Jingqiu?”
Rong Yu: “?”
Sworn what?
Exactly what unspeakable deal had his dad made with Ye Wanlan?
“I’m heading to the hospital right now, and you should co too,” Rong Jingqiu said quickly, “With such an incident in Miss Ye’s family, I can’t be at ease either.”
Rong Yu was stunned.
Although he hadn’t fully understood what his dad had said, he had a bad premonition—
His status at ho seed to be getting lower and lower.

At Jiangcheng First Hospital, the ti was now 4:30 in the morning.
“Miss Ye.” The director was relieved to see Ye Wanlan return, “Mrs. Lin’s condition is indeed not very good; her leg injury has deteriorated again. If not dealt with promptly…”
“Okay, I understand,” Ye Wanlan pressed her temples, “but due to the urgency, I will need soone to cooperate with . Is there anyone suitable in traditional Chinese dicine here?”
“This…” The director was a bit troubled, “Miss Ye, last ti Mr. Shen Que who cooperated with you is considered a national treasure in Chinese dicine. The traditional practitioners we have here can’t match his level.”
Ye Wanlan muttered, “Let think…”
The timing was awkward, if she went to look for Su Xueqing.
“I’ll do it,” a voice rang out.
Both turned around.
The director was surprised, “Miss Su?”
“Director Li, it’s been a long ti,” Su Yingxia smiled faintly.
In the outside world, she was never called the Matriarch of the Rong Family.
The formidable reputation of the Third Elder of the Su Family echoed loudly!
