Chapter 928: Choose Freely
"Auntie, do you think with a mother-in-law like that, Li'er would live well?" Yang Yu finally spoke up, "It's not about money, she simply looks down on Li'er."
As soon as Yang Yu spoke, Wang Juan's face immediately changed, "Kid, it's none of your business!"
"How can it be none of my business?" Yang Yu chuckled, "Li'er is my secretary; she's very busy. If she truly finds someone who loves her, I'd bless her, let her go, and even give her a hefty settlement. But if she finds a mother-in-law who looks down on her, a henpecked father-in-law, and a crippled, weak husband, her days ahead surely won't be good."
"So, I might as well take her back to Shanghai. Even if she's single, at least she won't be mistreated."
"You, you..." Wang Juan was so furious she pointed at Yang Yu but couldn't say anything.
Yang Yu ignored Wang Juan and turned to Tong Jun: "If others look down on you, that's not the problem. If you look down on yourself, degrading yourself, don't blame others for looking down on you. Uncle, what do you think?"
Tong Jun looked into Yang Yu's eyes, at that moment, he seemed to feel a familiar aura from Yang Yu: "Kid, have you served in the military?"
"No, but I have fought in battles," Yang Yu smiled, "My identity and connection with the military are rather special, inconvenient to elaborate, I hope Uncle can understand."
"I think you're right." Tong Jun nodded with a smile, "By the way, since you think so highly of Li'er, why don't you marry her?"
"Dad, Mr. Yang's wife is the number one beauty in Tianhai and the top talent in Yanjing," Tong Li'er casually said, "I'm not worthy."
"What? Wait!" Tong Jun's mind was nearly blown, "Tianhai's number one beauty? Yanjing's top talent? Is it Tianhai or Yanjing?"
"Both." Tong Li'er spread her hands, "Now do you understand?"
Tong Jun: "...!!!"
"Heh, no wonder you're so confident, bringing your mistress back here." Guo Caihua stood up, full of sarcasm, "Old Liu, Ah Ping, let's go."
"You can go, but take back what you said about 'mistress'." Yang Yu calmly looked at Guo Caihua, "If I had anything with Li'er, say what you will. I'm not one to pretend virtue. But nothing happened between us, and your nonsense is defamation."
"Heh, who knows if something happened between you two?" Guo Caihua sneered, "If you insist on making a scene over something unclear, go ahead. Our town is small, raise your voice a bit, and the whole town will know soon enough."
"By then, if Tong Li'er wants to return to town to marry, I'm afraid no one will marry her even if she pays them."
"I'm giving you one last chance," Yang Yu said slowly, "Apologize."
Guo Caihua raised her head arrogantly, "Why should I apologize to you two scumbags? I won't!"
"Since you insist, don't blame me for being rude." Yang Yu slowly said, "Mr. Liu, I suggest you get a paternity test."
"What?" Liu Yuesheng and his wife's faces changed at once, Guo Caihua's previously calm face twisted with anger, "Do you believe I'll sue you for defamation!"
"You're welcome to try anytime," Yang Yu smiled, "If you dare come at me with their paternity report, I'd willingly pay a million in damages for your reputation loss."
"You!" Guo Caihua trembled all over, unable to speak.
Liu Yuesheng then grabbed Yang Yu by the collar, eyes wide open: "It's your first time meeting us, how are you so sure? If you don't make it clear, even if I have to go to jail, I'd smash your face!"
"It's simple, I'm a renowned practitioner of Xia medicine, and my medical skills are decent," Yang Yu said, "Mr. Liu's waist was injured in childhood, while it's functional, he can't father a child. If Mr. Liu doesn't believe me, you can always get checked at a hospital. If I'm wrong, I'll apologize and compensate you immediately."
Yang Yu had laid it out this clearly, what more could Liu Yuesheng say?
He turned around, his eyes as if wanting to devour, "Caihua, no wonder I wanted a second child but couldn't, so that's it!"
Guo Caihua was frightened by her husband's outburst, retreating repeatedly: "Yuesheng, listen to me, I... I..."
"Is the child that bastard Wu's?" Liu Yuesheng roared, "When you married me, you said you had cut him off, you lied to me!"
Guo Caihua stammered, "Yuesheng, I'm sorry, I couldn't have kids with you, so I thought I'd try with him..."
Slap!
Liu Yuesheng landed a hard slap on Guo Caihua's face, "Slut, get out!"
Guo Caihua covered her face, glaring hatefully at Yang Yu: "It's all your mess, you bastard!"
"You had no evidence yet you happily slandered others, felt good bragging, didn't you?" Yang Yu retorted, "I merely stated facts, yet you blame me. I must say, your values are impressive."
"Slut, you're going to pay when you get home!" Liu Yuesheng yanked Guo Caihua by the hair and left the tea house without looking back.
Liu Ping watched his parents turn against each other, stunned: "Dad, Mom..."
Yang Yu saw Liu Ping's pitiful state and sighed, "You're innocent, you shouldn't bear this. Since we've crossed paths, and I inadvertently hurt you, I'll help you heal that leg of yours!"
Liu Ping was startled again, "My leg... can it still be cured?"
"It can." Yang Yu walked to Liu Ping's side, directly channeling his Primordial Energy into Liu Ping's crippled leg, swiftly repairing its tendons and bones.
To avoid appearing too miraculous, Yang Yu deliberately performed acupuncture on Liu Ping using the silver needles he carried.
In about five minutes, Yang Yu helped Liu Ping up: "Try taking a few steps?"
Liu Ping cautiously took several steps and found his leg could walk normally again, overwhelmingly joyful: "Thank you, thank you..."
"You're welcome." Yang Yu smiled lightly, "Go home early and comfort your dad a bit!"
At the mention of this, Liu Ping's expression turned gloomy again: "Okay, I'll go home now, thank you once again."
Liu Ping left, and Yang Yu let out a long sigh of relief: "Liu Ping is a good person, just a bit timid. It's inevitable with such a domineering mother, he can't assert himself... Li'er, if there's nothing else, come back with me, we have a mountain of work waiting for you at the company!"
"Alright." Tong Li'er nodded and said to her parents, "Dad, Mom, I'm returning to Tianhai City. From now on, you don't have to worry about my personal affairs."
"Honestly speaking, with Mr. Yang here, if I want to get married, I can choose from any wealthy heir in Tianhai at will."
