Chapter 153 - Return to Yancheng!

After Zhou Yu and the others left, Jiang Rong picked himself up from the ground with a somber expression on his face.

He initially thought Zhou Yu was Li De’an’s apprentice or something of the sort, but now it seemed that wasn’t the case at all.

Zhou Yu’s background filled him with dread.

For someone of his age to have such accomplishments, to say there wasn’t someone backing him would sound like nonsense even to a dog.

At this point, he was feeling some regret; he had intended to intimidate Zhou Yu into submission, never expecting Zhou Yu to be so powerful.

He faintly felt that he might have botched something.

Thinking this, Jiang Rong quickly got up and returned to Bamboo Pavilion.

Now, only the Pavilion Master could deal with this.

Meanwhile, after leaving the Dezhou Grand Hotel, Zhou Yu and his companions once again set off on their return journey to Yancheng.

Along the way, Zhou Yu fiddled with the Nether Fire Lotus Platform in his hands, sighing inwardly.

If it weren’t for this thing, there wouldn’t have been so many complications.

However, the remainder of the journey went much more smoothly.

Three hours later, Zhou Yu returned to Yancheng.

Li Shuangshuang dropped Zhou Yu off at the gate of the Lin Family villa.

At the same time, Lin Luoluo also just got off work and returned home.

During the past two days without Zhou Yu, Lin Luoluo knew that he had gone to great lengths to rush to Wucheng for medicinal herbs, so seeing Zhou Yu’s return brought a rare smile to her face.

She was just about to greet him when she suddenly noticed Li Shuangshuang.

She saw Zhou Yu wave his hand at Li Shuangshuang and said,

“Shuangshuang, you go back first, I’ll come over and check on Li He and the others after I’m done here.”

“Okay, goodbye.”

Li Shuangshuang said with a sweet smile.

Seeing Zhou Yu and Li Shuangshuang’s seemingly reluctant goodbyes—or at least, that’s how it appeared to Lin Luoluo—roused annoyance in her.

Lin Luoluo was instantly irritated.

After watching Li Shuangshuang leave, Zhou Yu turned to Lin Luoluo and greeted her with a smile,

“President Lin.”

Lin Luoluo approached with a stern face.

“You still know to come back?

With Miss Li’s company, it seems like you didn’t want to return, didn’t you?”

Zhou Yu was confused.

What kind of talk was that?

It wasn’t like he went out to have fun; he was buying medicine for Lin Wanhao.

Besides, these past few days had been full of continuous setbacks.

Not only did his beautiful wife not care about him, but she was also showing such a foul mood.

“President Lin, I was handling serious matters…”

“Humph, shut up.

I don’t want to hear your explanation.”

Lin Luoluo had grown accustomed to Zhou Yu’s way of addressing her, but after hearing the affectionate way he addressed Li Shuangshuang, she felt an inexplicable irritation every time Zhou Yu called her ‘President Lin.’

“Did you buy the medicine?”

“I did.”

“How much did it cost?

I’ll have finance reimburse you,” Lin Luoluo said huffily.

“Seventy million!”

Whoosh!

Lin Luoluo staggered, nearly falling over.

“What did you say?” She glared coldly at Zhou Yu.

“I said it’s the money spent on buying the medicine!!!”

Zhou Yu looked innocent.

“That’s right, the money for the medicine.

But it’s medicine that can save lives.

That amount of money isn’t too much, is it?”

A tic appeared in Lin Luoluo’s eye.

“Where did you get that much money?”

“I treated someone’s illness, and they gave it to me.”

Lin Luoluo was taken aback, her gaze suddenly became complicated.

Deep down, she truly admired Zhou Yu’s medical skills; they were indeed remarkable.

But the thought of the incident with Li Shuangshuang made her angry.

“The invoice?”

“There is no invoice.”

“No invoice, no reimbursement!” Lin Luoluo dropped this statement and turned around to walk in.

“By the way, you’ve been absent these two days.

Congratulations, your salary for last month has already been deducted.”

“…” Zhou Yu’s smile instantly froze.

In Lin Wanhao’s bedroom.

Soon after, Zhou Yu turned the Seven-Colored Heart-connecting Grass he had brought back into a medicinal broth.

Lin Luoluo carried the medicinal broth to feed Lin Wanhao.

After taking the medicine, Zhou Yu immediately performed acupuncture on him.

Lin Luoluo, Bai Yuzhen, and Lin Chaodong watched intently from the side.

Zhou Yu attacked the problem from both ends and quickly saw results.

Before long, Lin Wanhao slowly opened his eyes.

Zhou Yu smiled and said,

“All right, Uncle Lin is out of danger now.

With some rest, he’ll be able to recover fully.”

Lin Luoluo’s tears of joy started to flow.

“Dad, you finally woke up.”

“Luoluo, I…

what happened to me?”

Lin Wanhao was oblivious to how severely he had been injured.

Lin Luoluo quickly briefed him on the situation during his unconsciousness, and only then did Lin Wanhao realize he had been at death’s door.

Lin Wanhao, filled with emotion, grabbed Zhou Yu’s hand. S~eaʀᴄh the Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“Xiao Yu, you have worked hard.”

Zhou Yu shook his head and replied,

“Uncle Lin, you’re too kind; it’s what I should do.”

“Good boy!

I had too many prejudices against you in the past, and I hope you don’t take it to heart.”

“Uncle Lin, I don’t mind.”

Lin Chaodong laughed and asked,

“Xiao Yu, what’s the situation like in the provincial city now?”

During the time Zhou Yu was away from Yancheng, Lin Chaodong had been very worried.

He was well aware of the power of the Lin family in the provincial city.

Zhou Yu smiled and assured,

“Grandpa, don’t worry, everything has been taken care of.”

“The Lin family from the provincial city shouldn’t cause any trouble anymore!”

Lin Chaodong said with relief, “That’s good to hear.”

That evening, Zhou Yu did not return to his bedroom; instead, he sat cross-legged in the bamboo forest behind the villa.

He placed the Nether Fire Lotus Platform in front of his chest and looked at it with anticipation in his eyes.

“I hope it won’t let me down.”
