The Strongest Mad Son-in-law

Xu Hao originally didn't care much about the development of the Xu Liu Group, but since he decided to build his own business empire, he changed his mind. The Xu Liu Group was his weapon to enter the business world.

At this time, the Zhou family, ever since the Family Head Zhou Changcun had the car accident and became bedridden, had fallen into constant internal strife. Power struggles surged within the Zhou family, especially with the second elder, Zhou Jiandong, who almost everyone knew aspired to be the Family Head. After all, Zhou Changcun had no sons, only a daughter.

However, Zhou Changcun was not dead yet. So, he had to lie low for the time being, waiting for the opportunity. And because Zhou Changcun had health issues, the next Family Head was undetermined, Zhou Shuran disappeared from public view, which caused quite a few complications in the family's business partnerships with various clan powers.

If they cooperated with Zhou Changcun now, then if Zhou Jiandong became the Family Head, future cooperation with the Zhou family might not go well, and vice versa. Therefore, this also led to recent business difficulties for the Zhou Group.

On this day, the third day after the Jing'an Zhou family moved to Huadu. Zhou Jiandong, accompanied by Zhou An and others, went to visit the bedridden Zhou Changcun. Along with them was also an old man in a black robe, with a medicine chest on his back and white hair, who moved with the vigor of a young man despite his advanced age.

Zhou Changcun was not hospitalized but was brought directly back home with doctors to take care of him. Seeing Zhou Changcun in bed, wrapped up like a mummy, Zhou An's heart chilled.

Many people suspected that Zhou Jiandong was behind Zhou Changcun's car accident, but since the driver fled the scene and no evidence had been found to date, it remained mere speculation. But if it really was Zhou Jiandong's doing, then it was truly disheartening—he could harm his own brother for power!

Zhou Jiandong sat beside him, looking concerned, and said, "Big brother, rest and heal up. I've been looking for the culprit these days, and once I find them, I definitely won't let them off lightly!" Zhou Changcun lay in the hospital bed, utterly weak and unable to speak, but the sorrow and rage in his eyes could not be concealed.

He was no fool. After the accident, the first suspect he thought of was his own younger brother. But he couldn't understand why he would do it! Was family power really that important?

Over the years, he hadn't treated him badly, had he? Zhou Jiandong glanced at Zhou Changcun's medical report, which indicated that he had at most half a year to live, and with a heavy expression, said, "Big brother, to heal your burns, I have specially invited a Divine Doctor, the Southwest Medicine King, Lei Qianjue!"

The Southwest Medicine King Lei Qianjue!

This name was renowned throughout Tiannan Province, with exceptional medical skills. The doctors and nurses in the room had all heard of him, and they were all thrilled to see him in person.

Zhou Changcun's heart was also tremendously shocked; Lei Qianjue was not someone easily requested. In the past, Lei Qianjue made house calls quite often, but now that he was older, he seldom wanted to go on long trips anymore.

To persuade him to take action, you either had to be an elder with a distinguished status or pay a great price. At Lei Qianjue's level, he really didn't care for money anymore.

Zhou Jiandong continued, "Big brother, as you know, it's not easy to ask for the Medicine King Lei Qianjue's help, as it requires a great cost. That's why I gave all the shares of your company to him."

Zhou Changcun was furiously enraged, his eyes almost popping out. That company was an important part of the Zhou Group and the fruit of his lifelong efforts! Yet, his brother gave it away without his consent!

Lei Qianjue said, "When I save people, I naturally need a reward. That's the rule of our lineage. In my youth, if I took a liking to you, perhaps a skewer of meat would have sufficed for me to help.

But now in my old age, due to age limits, I cannot readily help others, hence my high price. I ask that the Zhou family Patriarch not blame me. What I do has a reason. After all, wealth is an external matter; preserving one's own safety is essential."

Zhou Jiandong smiled and said, "Big brother, although your injuries are hard to heal, with Medicine King Lei Qianjue taking action, it's not impossible."

Lei Qianjue, however, said, "This... is hard to say. I'm skilled at healing internal injuries, including fractures, but these burns are really difficult to treat. If my teacher were here, maybe there could be a way. With my ability, I can only extend the Zhou family Patriarch's life, allowing him to live at least another three years."

Lei Qianjue's words were very sincere, for he was telling the truth. With his ability, that was all he could do.

Hearing that he could actually live another three years, Zhou Changcun suddenly surged with boundless hope. If one could live, who would choose to die?

He began to doubt, had he wronged his brother? Maybe none of this was his doing? Zhou Changcun became confused.

Zhou Jiandong finally showed a hint of a smile and said, "To live at least three more years? That's not bad at all!"
